Romans 11:29 NASB,NIV

F. B. Hole's Old and New Testament Commentary - Romans 11:1-99

Romans 11 THOUGH ISRAEL, as a nation, has been set aside for a time, they have not been cast away for ever. Some Gentiles in the conceit of their hearts thought so when Paul was writing, and not a few think so today. But God forbid that it should be so, for they are His people foreknown for a special object, and in that event His object would be defeated. The Apostle immediately cites his own case as proof. Mercy had been shown to him and he was an Israelite, a sample of that remnant which... read more

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Romans 11:28-32

God's mercy upon all: v. 28. As concerning the Gospel, they are enemies for your sakes; but as touching the election, they are beloved for the fathers' sakes. v. 29. For the gifts and calling of God are without repentance. v. 30. For as ye in times past have not believed God, yet have now obtained mercy through their unbelief, v. 31. even so have these also now not believed, that through your mercy they also may obtain mercy. v. 32. For God hath concluded them all in unbelief that he... read more

Lange's Commentary on the Holy Scriptures: Critical, Doctrinal and Homiletical - Romans 11:1-36

Third Section.—The final gracious solution of the enigma, or the overruling of judgment for the salvation of Israel. God’s judgment on Israel is not one of reprobation. God’s saving economy in His Providence over Jews and Gentiles, over the election and the great majority of Israel, and over the concatenation of judgment and salvation, by virtue of which all Israel shall finally attain to faith and salvation through the fulness of the Gentiles. The universality of judgment and mercy.... read more

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Romans 11:25-36

That God “Might Have Mercy upon All” Romans 11:25-36 “Mysteries” are the reasons and principles of the divine procedure which are hidden from ordinary minds, but revealed to the children of God by the Spirit, who searches the deep things, 1 Corinthians 2:10 . We cannot tell how near the brim we are, or when the fullness of the Gentiles will fill the predestined measure. It may be much nearer than we suppose, and then the door will be closed, and the Hebrew nation will be grafted in to serve... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Romans 11:1-36

This discussion now gives rise to a new question, "Did God cast off His people?" They were created a nation in order that through them all the nations should be blessed. Failing to realize the divine intention concerning their own national life, they consequently and necessarily failed to fulfil that intention concerning the nations outside. God, however, does not allow the outside nations to suffer, but in infinite grace works through the fall of His earthly people toward enriching the whole... read more

Peter Pett

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Romans 11:1-36

The Messsiah Has Come And Is For All. God Has Not Failed In His Promises To The True Israel. Salvation For All is Through Faith In The Messiah (9:1-11:36) Paul now expands on chapters 1-8, in which he has demonstrated that all, both Jews and Gentiles, have sinned, and that all must therefore find salvation by faith through Jesus Christ, God’s Messiah. And he does it by 1). demonstrating the relationship of both Jews and Gentiles to the Messiah Who has come, and 2). showing that Salvation is... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Romans 11:11-32

God Has Established A True Israel Based On The Remnant Who Have Responded To The Messiah, With The False Israel Being At Least Temporarily Cast Off, To Be Restored If They Turn To The Messiah And Rejoin The True Israel (11:11-32). We now commence with a new subsection, commencing as so often in Romans with a question, although one that continues the theme of Romans 11:8-10. In it we have the clearest evidence of the fact that the ‘true church’, consisting of all true believers, is the... read more

Peter Pett

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Romans 11:22-32

The Gentile Christians Are To Recognise Both The Goodness And Severity Of God (11:22-32). So the Gentile Christians are to recognise both the goodness and the severity of God. Towards the unbelieving Jews who had rejected His Son, the Messiah, He showed severity. Towards the Gentiles He had shown goodness. But if they did not continue in that goodness by faith and obedience, they too would be cut off from the true Israel, and therefore from salvation. They too would experience His severity.... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Romans 11:28-29

‘As touching the gospel, enemies for your sake, but as touching the election, beloved for the fathers’ sake. For the gifts and the calling of God are not repented of.’ As has already been noted this statement is not connected with what has been said previously by any connecting word, something which is much more significant in ancient Greek than in English. For where there was no punctuation such devices were necessary. One way of seeing these words is as signifying that God has not forsaken... read more

Romans 12:16) to learn “ the secret that the hardening” (see Romans 11:7) which “ has partially befallen Israel” (the remnant is exempt; Romans 11:5; Romans 11:7), will last only “ until the full complement of the nations enters” into God’ s kingdom; “ then all Israel will be saved.” A mystery is a secret truth concerning God’ s... read more
