That Israel has not been forever set aside is the theme of this chapter.

(1) The salvation of Paul proves that there is still a remnant (Romans 11:1)

(2) The doctrine of the remnant proves it (Romans 11:2).

(3) The present national unbelief was foreseen (Romans 11:7).

(4) Israel's unbelief is the Gentile opportunity (Romans 11:11).

(5) Israel is judicially broken off from the good olive tree, Christ (Romans 11:17).

(6) They are to be grafted in again (Romans 11:23).

(7) The promised Deliverer will come out of Zion and the nation will be saved (Romans 11:25). That the Christian now inherits the distinctive Jewish promises is not taught in Scripture. The Christian is of the heavenly seed of Abraham; (Genesis 15:5); (Galatians 3:29) and partakes of the spiritual blessings of the Abrahamic Covenant.

( See Scofield) - (Genesis 15:18)

but Israel as a nation always has it own place, and is yet to have its greatest exaltation as the earthly people of God.

See "Israel" (Genesis 12:2); (Romans 11:26).

"Kingdom"; (Genesis 1:26); (Zechariah 12:8).
