No, indeed. Why, I myself am an Israelite, of the posterity of Abraham and of the tribe of Benjamin. <span class="reftext"><a href="/romans/11-2.htm"><b>2</b></a></span>God has not cast off His People whom He knew beforehand. Or are you ignorant of what Scripture says in speaking of Elijah—how he pleaded with God against Israel, saying, <span class="reftext"><a href="/romans/11-3.htm"><b>3</b></a></span>"Lord, they have put Thy Prophets to death, and have overthrown Thy altars; and, now that I alone remain, they are thirsting for my blood"? <span class="reftext"><a href="/romans/11-4.htm"><b>4</b></a></span>But what did God say to him in reply? "I have reserved for Myself 7,000 men who have never bent the knee to Baal." <span class="reftext"><a href="/romans/11-5.htm"><b>5</b></a></span>In the same way also at the present time there has come to be a remnant whom God in His grace has selected. <span class="reftext"><a href="/romans/11-6.htm"><b>6</b></a></span>But if it is in His grace that He has selected them, then His choice is no longer determined by human actions. Otherwise grace would be grace no longer.</p> <p class="reg"><span class="reftext"><a href="/romans/11-7.htm"><b>7</b></a></span>How then does the matter stand? It stands thus. That which Israel are in earnest pursuit of, they have not obtained; but God's chosen servants have obtained it, and the rest have become hardened.</p> <p class="reg"><span class="reftext"><a href="/romans/11-8.htm"><b>8</b></a></span>And so Scripture says, "God has given them a spirit of drowsiness—eyes to see nothing with and ears to hear nothing with—even until now."</p> <p class="reg"><span class="reftext"><a href="/romans/11-9.htm"><b>9</b></a></span>And David says, "Let their very food become a snare and a trap to them, a stumbling-block and a retribution.</p> <p class="reg"><span class="reftext"><a href="/romans/11-10.htm"><b>10</b></a></span>Let darkness come over their eyes that they may be unable to see, and make Thou their backs continually to stoop."</p> <p class="hdg">The Ingrafting of the Gentiles</p><p class="reg"><span class="reftext"><a href="/romans/11-11.htm"><b>11</b></a></span>I ask, however, "Have they stumbled so as to be finally ruined?" No, indeed; but by their lapse salvation has come to the Gentiles in order to arouse the jealousy of the descendants of Israel; <span class="reftext"><a href="/romans/11-12.htm"><b>12</b></a></span>and if their lapse is the enriching of the world, and their overthrow the enriching of the Gentiles, will not still greater good follow their restoration? <span class="reftext"><a href="/romans/11-13.htm"><b>13</b></a></span>But to you Gentiles I say that, since I am an Apostle specially sent to the Gentiles, I take pride in my ministry, <span class="reftext"><a href="/romans/11-14.htm"><b>14</b></a></span>trying whether I can succeed in rousing my own countrymen to jealousy and thus save some of them. <span class="reftext"><a href="/romans/11-15.htm"><b>15</b></a></span>For if their having been cast aside has carried with it the reconciliation of the world, what will their being accepted again be but Life out of death? <span class="reftext"><a href="/romans/11-16.htm"><b>16</b></a></span>Now if the firstfruits of the dough are holy, so also is the whole mass; and if the root of a tree is holy, so also are the branches.</p> <p class="reg"><span class="reftext"><a href="/romans/11-17.htm"><b>17</b></a></span>And if some of the branches have been pruned away, and you, although you were but a wild olive, have been grafted in among them and have become a sharer with others in the rich sap of the root of the olive tree, <span class="reftext"><a href="/romans/11-18.htm"><b>18</b></a></span>beware of glorying over the natural branches. Or if you are so glorying, do not forget that it is not you who uphold the root: the root upholds you. <span class="reftext"><a href="/romans/11-19.htm"><b>19</b></a></span>"Branches have been lopped off," you will say, "for the sake of my being grafted in." <span class="reftext"><a href="/romans/11-20.htm"><b>20</b></a></span>This is true; yet it was their unbelief that cut them off, and you only stand through your faith. <span class="reftext"><a href="/romans/11-21.htm"><b>21</b></a></span>Do not be puffed up with pride. Tremble rather—for if God did not spare the natural branches, neither will He spare you. <span class="reftext"><a href="/romans/11-22.htm"><b>22</b></a></span>Notice therefore God's kindness and God's severity. On those who have fallen His severity has descended, but upon you His kindness has come, provided that you do not cease to respond to that kindness. Otherwise you will be cut off also. <span class="reftext"><a href="/romans/11-23.htm"><b>23</b></a></span>Moreover, if they turn from their unbelief, they too will be grafted in. For God is powerful enough to graft them in again; <span class="reftext"><a href="/romans/11-24.htm"><b>24</b></a></span>and if you were cut from that which by nature is a wild olive and contrary to nature were grafted into the good olive tree, how much more certainly will these natural branches be grafted on their own olive tree?</p> <p class="hdg">All Israel Shall Be Saved</p><p class="reg"><span class="reftext"><a href="/romans/11-25.htm"><b>25</b></a></span>For there is a truth, brethren, not revealed hitherto, of which I do not wish to leave you in ignorance, for fear you should attribute superior wisdom to yourselves—the truth, I mean, that partial blindness has fallen upon Israel until the great mass of the Gentiles have come in;</p> <p class="reg"><span class="reftext"><a href="/romans/11-26.htm"><b>26</b></a></span>and so all Israel will be saved.
