Romans 11:1
The Two Olive Trees
SUMMARY OF ROMANS 11: A Part of Israel Saved. The Rest Blinded by Their
Hardness of Heart. The Salvation of the Gentiles Through the Fall of
Israel. The Figure of the Two Olive Trees. The Jewish Branches
Broken Off. The Gentile Branches Grafted in. Yet Israel Shall Be
Saved. God's Unsearchable Judgments.
Hath God cast away his people? In chapter 10 Paul has shown that
the Gentiles were to come into God's favor, and the Jews, the chosen
people, to be rejected. He now asks whether the Jews were finally cast
off. He shows that the rejection was not total, but partial, many Jews
being saved; and secondly, that it was not eternal, but finally all
Israel would come to Christ.
I also am an Israelite. Hence all Israel is not cast off, since
he, an Israelite, is an apostle of Christ. He shows that he is of
approved Jewish descent.
