SCRIPTURE

"For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed to us-ward." — Romans 8:18 (ASV)

To us-ward (εις ημας). We shall be included in the radiance of the coming glory which will put in the shadow the present sufferings. Precisely the same idiom here with μελλουσαν δοξαν (aorist passive infinitive of αποκαλυφθηνα) occurs in Ga 3:23 with μελλουσαν πιστιν, which see.
