Summary/Abstract: This study is part of a more extensive research on the historical significations of St. Paul the Apostle's missions among the Gentiles, on the other hand, and the meanings of the term “word” in the sacred texts, on the other hand. In The Epistle to the Romans, the term “word” refers to no less than four notions that are well-defined logically and semantically, within the set of concepts with which the author of the letter operates: reasoning, promise, faith and dogma. Each of these has several conceptual nuances and several lexical and semantic realisations. All together point to the depth of the author’s thought and attachment to the divine message.
