Charles Ellicott Commentary Romans 5:11

"and not only so, but we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received the reconciliation." — Romans 5:11 (ASV)

And not only so.—A word like “reconciled” must be supplied from the previous verse. “We shall be saved as the result of our reconciliation, but we are something more than reconciled. Ours is not merely a passive, but an active state. We exult or glory in God, who, through Christ, has given us this reconciliation.”

Now.—In this present time, in our present condition. Reconciliation in the present is a foretaste of glory in the future.
