The Greek word for "ignorant" is "agnoeo," which means to be unaware or uninformed. Paul is urging the Roman believers to be fully aware of God's plan, highlighting the necessity of knowledge in spiritual matters to prevent misunderstanding and pride.of this mystery The term "mystery" in Greek is "mysterion," which refers to a divine secret that is revealed by God. In the New Testament, mysteries are truths that were once hidden but are now disclosed to believers. Here, Paul is unveiling a profound truth about God's redemptive plan for both Jews and Gentiles, emphasizing the unfolding of God's salvation history.brothers This term, "adelphoi" in Greek, signifies a close relationship among believers, indicating a familial bond within the Christian community. Paul addresses the Roman Christians with affection and solidarity, reminding them of their shared faith and responsibility to understand God's purposes.so that you will not be conceited The phrase warns against arrogance or pride, particularly in spiritual matters. The Greek word "phronimos" implies being wise in one's own eyes. Paul cautions the Gentile believers against feeling superior to the Jews, reminding them that their inclusion in God's plan is by grace, not merit.A hardening in part has come to Israel The "hardening" refers to a spiritual insensitivity or obstinacy. The Greek word "porosis" suggests a temporary and partial condition, not a permanent rejection. This hardening is part of God's sovereign plan, allowing the Gentiles to receive the gospel while maintaining hope for Israel's future restoration.until the full number of the Gentiles has come in The phrase "full number" translates from the Greek "pleroma," meaning completeness or fulfillment. It indicates a divinely appointed time when the Gentiles' inclusion in God's kingdom reaches its fullness. This reflects God's inclusive plan of salvation, where both Jews and Gentiles are integral to His redemptive purposes.<div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/ellicott/romans/11.htm">Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers</a></div>(25-32) There was a deep meaning underlying the temporary rejection of Israel, of which he has been speaking--a meaning which has hitherto been kept secret, but now to be revealed as a corrective to any possible pride on the part of the Gentiles.(25) Mystery.--The word always means throughout St. Paul's writings something which, though not to be known or fully comprehended by unassisted human reason, has been made known by direct divine revelation. It is therefore not to be taken in this passage in its usual sense, of something hidden and concealed from all except a few, but rather of all such truths as though previously hidden, had been made manifest by the gospel.It is thus applied to the whole or any part of the Christian system. To the whole, as in <a href="/romans/16-25.htm" title="Now to him that is of power to establish you according to my gospel, and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery, which was kept secret since the world began,">Romans 16:25</a>; <a href="/context/1_corinthians/2-7.htm" title="But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which God ordained before the world to our glory:">1Corinthians 2:7-10</a>; <a href="/ephesians/1-9.htm" title="Having made known to us the mystery of his will, according to his good pleasure which he has purposed in himself:">Ephesians 1:9</a>; <a href="/ephesians/6-19.htm" title="And for me, that utterance may be given to me, that I may open my mouth boldly, to make known the mystery of the gospel,">Ephesians 6:19</a>; <a href="/context/colossians/1-26.htm" title=" Even the mystery which has been hid from ages and from generations, but now is made manifest to his saints:">Colossians 1:26-27</a>; <a href="/colossians/2-2.htm" title=" That their hearts might be comforted, being knit together in love, and to all riches of the full assurance of understanding, to the acknowledgment of the mystery of God, and of the Father, and of Christ;">Colossians 2:2</a>; <a href="/1_timothy/3-9.htm" title="Holding the mystery of the faith in a pure conscience.">1Timothy 3:9</a>; <a href="/1_timothy/3-16.htm" title="And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached to the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.">1Timothy 3:16</a>. To any part, as (a) the admission of the Gentiles, <a href="/ephesians/3-3.htm" title="How that by revelation he made known to me the mystery; (as I wrote before in few words,">Ephesians 3:3</a> et seq., and partly here; (b) the mystical union of Christ and His Church which is typified in marriage, <a href="/ephesians/5-32.htm" title="This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and the church.">Ephesians 5:32</a>; (c) the transformation of the "quick" at the resurrection, <a href="/1_corinthians/15-51.htm" title="Behold, I show you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,">1Corinthians 15:51</a>; and (d) the opposition of Antichrist to the gospel, <a href="/2_thessalonians/2-7.htm" title="For the mystery of iniquity does already work: only he who now lets will let, until he be taken out of the way.">2Thessalonians 2:7</a>. . . . <div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/pulpit/romans/11.htm">Pulpit Commentary</a></div>Verses 25-27. - For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that hardness (πώρωσις; see ver. 8) in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles he come in. And so all Israel shall be saved. Πᾶς Ισραὴλ here must mean the whole nation; not, as Calvin explains, "com-plebitur salus totius Israel Dei [i.e. of the spiritual Israel, as in <a href="/galatians/6-16.htm">Galatians 6:16</a>] quam ex utrisque [i.e. with Jews and Gentiles] colligi oportet;" for "Israel" must surely be understood in the same sense as in the preceding verse, where it denotes the Jewish nation as opposed to the Gentiles. Σωθήσεται, as seems required by the whole context, means coming into the Church (cf. <a href="/acts/2-47.htm">Acts 2:47</a>, Ὁ δὲ κύριος προσετίθει τοὺς σωζομένους καθ ἡμέραν τῇ ἐκκλησίᾳ). As it is written, There shall come out of Zion the Deliverer, and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob: and this is my covenant unto them, when I shall take away their sins. Referring, as throughout the Epistle, to the Old Testament for confirmation, St. Paul here, as in former instances, combines passages, and quotes freely, perhaps from memory. The main citation is from <a href="/isaiah/59-20.htm">Isaiah 59:20, 21</a>, with an addition from <a href="/isaiah/17-9.htm">Isaiah 17:9</a>, the LXX. being followed. The citations are relevant, being specimens of many others that might have been adduced, predicting the final pardon and restitution of the house of Israel itself, notwithstanding judgments, through the Redeemer who was to come. What follows, to ver. 33, is in the way of summary and further comment. <a href="/commentaries/romans/11-25.htm">Parallel Commentaries ...</a> <a name="lexicon" id="lexicon"></a><div class="vheading">Greek</div>I do not want θέλω (thelō) Verb - Present Indicative Active - 1st Person Singular <a href="/greek/strongs_2309.htm">Strong's 2309: </a> To will, wish, desire, be willing, intend, design. you ὑμᾶς (hymas) Personal / Possessive Pronoun - Accusative 2nd Person Plural <a href="/greek/strongs_4771.htm">Strong's 4771: </a> You.
