Context Readings

A Remnant Of Israel Remains

9 and David says, "let their table be made a snare, and a trap, and a gin, and a recompence for their iniquity. 10 let their eyes be darkned, so as not to see, and let their back be continually bowed down." 11 You will say then, "were they suffer'd to stumble meerly for their ruin?" no: but that thro' their fall, salvation might be offer'd to the Gentiles, in order to provoke their emulation.
