Context of Romans 15:5

3For even Messiah did not please Himself, but as it is written, “The insults of those who insulted You have fallen on Me.” 4For whatever was written before was written for our instruction, so that through patience and the encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope. Now may the God of patience and encouragement grant you to be like-minded with one another in the manner of Messiah Yeshua, 6so that together with one voice you may glorify the God and Father of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah. 7Therefore accept one another just as Messiah also accepted you, to the glory of God.

• Barnes’ Notes on the Bible · v. 5Now the God of patience - The God who is “himself” long-suffering, who bears patiently with the errors and faults of his children, and who can “give” patience, may he give you of his Spirit, that you may bear patiently the infirmities and errors of each other.
