Q

R 11:6

A

Q

R 11:16

A

And since Abraham and the other patriarchs were holy, their descendants will also be holy-just as the entire batch of dough is holy because the portion given as an offering is holy. For if the roots of the tree are holy, the branches will be, too.

Q

R 11:12

A

Now if the Gentiles were enriched because the people of Israel turned down God’s offer of salvation, think how much greater a blessing the world will share when they finally accept it.

Q

R 11:17

A

But some of these branches from Abraham’s tree-some of the people of Israel-have been broken off. And you Gentiles, who were branches from a wild olive tree, have been grafted in. So now you also receive the blessing God has promised Abraham and his children, sharing in the rich nourishment from the root of God’s special olive tree.

Q

R 11:18

A

But you must not brag about being grafted in to replace the branches that were broken off. You are just a branch, not the root.

17
Q

R 11:11

A

Did God’s people stumble and fall beyond recovery? Of course not! They were disobedient, so God made salvation available to the Gentiles. But he wanted his own people to become jealous and claim it for themselves.

18
Q

R 11:15

A

For since their rejection meant that God offered salvation to the rest of the world, their acceptance will be even more wonderful. It will be life for those who were dead!

19
Q

R 11:13

A

I am saying all this especially for you Gentiles. God has appointed me as the apostle to the Gentiles. I stress this,

20
Q

R 11:23

A

And if the people of Israel turn from their unbelief, they will be grafted in again, for God has the power to graft them back into the tree.

21
Q

R 11:25

A

I want you to understand this mystery, dear brothers and sisters, so that you will not feel proud about yourselves. Some of the people of Israel have hard hearts, but this will last only until the full number of Gentiles comes to Christ.

22
Q

R 11:29

A

For God’s gifts and his call can never be withdrawn.

23
Q

R 11:27

A

And this is my covenant with them, that I will take away their sins.”

24
Q

R 11:26

A

And so all Israel will be saved. As the Scriptures say, “The one who rescues will come from Jerusalem, and he will turn Israel away from ungodliness.

25
Q

R 11:20

A

Yes, but remember-those branches were broken off because they didn’t believe in Christ, and you are there because you do believe. So don’t think highly of yourself, but fear what could happen.

26
Q

R 11:21

A

For if God did not spare the original branches, he won’t spare you either.

27
Q

R 11:24

A

You, by nature, were a branch cut from a wild olive tree. So if God was willing to do something contrary to nature by grafting you into his cultivated tree, he will be far more eager to graft the original branches back into the tree where they belong.

28
Q

R 11:28

A

Many of the people of Israel are now enemies of the Good News, and this benefits you Gentiles. Yet they are still the people he loves because he chose their ancestors Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.

29
Q

R 11:22

A

Notice how God is both kind and severe. He is severe toward those who disobeyed, but kind to you if you continue to trust in his kindness. But if you stop trusting, you also will be cut off.

30
Q

R 11:35

A

And who has given him so much that he needs to pay it back?

31
Q

R 11:30

A

Once, you Gentiles were rebels against God, but when the people of Israel rebelled against him, God was merciful to you instead.

32
Q

R 11:34

A

For who can know the Lord’s thoughts? Who knows enough to give him advice?

33
Q

R 11:31

A

Now they are the rebels, and God’s mercy has come to you so that they, too, will share in God’s mercy.

34
Q

R 11:32

A

For God has imprisoned everyone in disobedience so he could have mercy on everyone.

35
Q

R 11:33

A

Oh, how great are God’s riches and wisdom and knowledge! How impossible it is for us to understand his decisions and his ways!

36
Q

R 11:36

A

For everything comes from him and exists by his power and is intended for his glory. All glory to him forever! Amen.
