Romans 9:30-33 - Israel's Present State

³⁰ What shall we hence conclude? that the Gentiles who sought not after justice, have obtained justice, even to that which is by faith: ³¹ but Israel, who followed the law of justice, hath not attained to the law of justice. ³² why? because they sought it not by faith, but indeed by the works of the law: for they stumbled at that stumbling-stone; ³³ as it is written, "behold, I lay in Sion a stumbling-stone, and a rock of offence: and whosoever believeth in him, shall not be ashamed."
