What then? ro 3

What say I then? that a thing sacrificed to idols is anything, or that an idol is anything?

What then? only that in every way, whether in pretence or in truth, Christ is proclaimed; and therein I rejoice, yea, and will rejoice.

Israel

but Israel, following after a law of righteousness, did not arrive at that law.

For being ignorant of God's righteousness, and seeking to establish their own, they did not subject themselves to the righteousness of God.

Then will they call upon me, but I will not answer; They will seek me diligently, but they shall not find me:

Strive to enter in by the narrow door: for many, I say unto you, shall seek to enter in, and shall not be able.

For ye know that even when he afterward desired to inherit the blessing, he was rejected; for he found no place for a change of mind in his father, though he sought is diligently with tears.

But the election

Even so then at this present time also there is a remnant according to the election of grace.

And we know that to them that love God all things work together for good, even to them that are called according to his purpose.

and that he might make known the riches of his glory upon vessels of mercy, which he afore prepared unto glory,

even as he chose us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blemish before him in love:

But we are bound to give thanks to God always for you, brethren beloved of the Lord, for that God chose you from the beginning unto salvation in sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth:

according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, in sanctification of the Spirit, unto obedience and sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ: Grace to you and peace be multiplied.

And the rest

Make the heart of this people fat, and make their ears heavy, and shut their eyes; lest they sea with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and turn again, and be healed.

They know not, neither do they consider: for he hath shut their eyes, that they cannot see; and their hearts, that they cannot understand.

And unto them is fulfilled the prophecy of Isaiah, which saith, By hearing ye shall hear, and shall in no wise understand; And seeing ye shall see, and shall in no wise perceive:

He hath blinded their eyes, and he hardened their heart; Lest they should see with their eyes, and perceive with their heart, And should turn, And I should heal them.

but their minds were hardened: for until this very day at the reading of the old covenant the same veil remaineth, it not being revealed to them that it is done away in Christ.

in whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of the unbelieving, that the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should not dawn upon them .

and with all deceit of unrighteousness for them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.

Blinded

So then he hath mercy on whom he will, and whom he will be hardeneth.

General references

but Jehovah hath not given you a heart to know, and eyes to see, and ears to hear, unto this day.

They perceived not that he spake to them of the Father.
