Israel Has Not Been Rejected

Unchecked Copy BoxRom 11:1 -

I say then, God has not rejected His people, has He? [fn]Far from it! For I too am an Israelite, [fn]a descendant of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin.

Unchecked Copy BoxRom 11:2 - God has not rejected His people whom He foreknew. Or do you not know what the Scripture says in the passage about Elijah, how he pleads with God against Israel?
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 11:3 - “Lord, THEY HAVE KILLED YOUR PROPHETS, THEY HAVE TORN DOWN YOUR ALTARS, AND I ALONE AM LEFT, AND THEY ARE SEEKING MY LIFE.”
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 11:4 - But what [fn]is the divine response to him? “I HAVE KEPT for Myself SEVEN THOUSAND MEN WHO HAVE NOT BOWED THE KNEE TO BAAL.”
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 11:5 - In the same way then, there has also come to be at the present time a remnant according to God’s [fn]gracious choice.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 11:6 - But if it is by grace, it is no longer [fn]on the basis of works, since otherwise grace is no longer grace.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 11:7 -

What then? What Israel is seeking, it has not obtained, but [fn]those who were chosen obtained it, and the rest were hardened;

Unchecked Copy BoxRom 11:8 - just as it is written:

“GOD GAVE THEM A SPIRIT OF STUPOR,

EYES TO SEE NOT AND EARS TO HEAR NOT,

DOWN TO THIS VERY DAY.”

Unchecked Copy BoxRom 11:9 -

And David says,

“MAY THEIR TABLE BECOME A SNARE AND A TRAP,

AND A STUMBLING BLOCK AND A RETRIBUTION TO THEM.

Unchecked Copy BoxRom 11:10 -

“MAY THEIR EYES BE DARKENED TO SEE NOT,

AND BEND THEIR BACKS CONTINUALLY.”

Unchecked Copy BoxRom 11:11 -

I say then, they did not stumble so as to fall, did they? [fn]Far from it! But by their wrongdoing salvation has come to the Gentiles, to make them jealous.

Unchecked Copy BoxRom 11:12 - Now if their wrongdoing proves to be riches for the world, and their failure, riches for the Gentiles, how much more will their [fn]fulfillment be!
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 11:13 - But I am speaking to you who are Gentiles. Therefore insofar as I am an apostle of Gentiles, I magnify my ministry
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 11:14 - if somehow I may move my [fn]own people to jealousy and save some of them.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 11:15 - For if their rejection proves to be the reconciliation of the world, what will their acceptance be but life from the dead?
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 11:16 - If the first piece of dough is holy, the lump is also; and if the root is holy, the branches are as well.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 11:17 -

But if some of the branches were broken off, and you, being a wild olive, were grafted in among them and became partaker with them of the [fn]rich root of the olive tree,

Unchecked Copy BoxRom 11:18 - do not be arrogant toward the branches; but if you are arrogant, remember that it is not you who supports the root, but the root supports you.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 11:19 - You will say then, “Branches were broken off so that I might be grafted in.”
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 11:20 - Quite right, they were broken off for their unbelief, but you stand by your faith. Do not be conceited, but fear;
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 11:21 - for if God did not spare the natural branches, He will not spare you, either.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 11:22 - See then the kindness and severity of God: to those who fell, severity, but to you, God’s kindness, if you continue in His kindness; for otherwise you too will be cut off.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 11:23 - And they also, if they do not continue in their unbelief, will be grafted in; for God is able to graft them in again.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 11:24 - For if you were cut off from what is by nature a wild olive tree, and contrary to nature were grafted into a cultivated olive tree, how much more will these who are the natural branches be grafted into their own olive tree?
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 11:25 -

For I do not want you, brothers and sisters, to be uninformed of this mystery—so that you will not be wise in your own estimation—that a partial hardening has happened to Israel until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in;

Unchecked Copy BoxRom 11:26 - and so all Israel will be saved; just as it is written:

“THE DELIVERER WILL COME FROM ZION,

HE WILL REMOVE UNGODLINESS FROM JACOB.”

Unchecked Copy BoxRom 11:27 -

“THIS IS [fn]MY COVENANT WITH THEM,

WHEN I TAKE AWAY THEIR SINS.”

Unchecked Copy BoxRom 11:28 -

In relation to the gospel they are enemies on your account, but in relation to God’s choice they are beloved on account of the fathers;

Unchecked Copy BoxRom 11:29 - for the gifts and the calling of God are irrevocable.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 11:30 - For just as you once were disobedient to God, but now have been shown mercy because of their disobedience,
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 11:31 - so these also now have been disobedient, that because of the mercy shown to you they also may now be shown mercy.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 11:32 - For God has shut up all in disobedience, so that He may show mercy to all.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 11:33 -

Oh, the depth of the riches, [fn]both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are His judgments and unfathomable His ways!

Unchecked Copy BoxRom 11:34 - For WHO HAS KNOWN THE MIND OF THE LORD, OR WHO BECAME HIS COUNSELOR?
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 11:35 - Or WHO HAS FIRST GIVEN TO HIM, [fn]THAT IT WOULD BE PAID BACK TO HIM?
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 11:36 - For from Him, and through Him, and to Him are all things. To Him be the glory [fn]forever. Amen.
