Romans 10:14-21 - Israel's Rejection Of The Message
14 How then will they call on whom they have not believed? And how will they believe of whom they have not heard? And how will they hear without preaching? 15 And how will they preach unless they are sent? Just as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of those who proclaim good news of peace, of those who proclaim good news of good things. 16 But not all were obedient to the good-news, for Isaiah says, Lord, who has believed our report? 17 So faith is from hearing, and hearing by the word of God. 18 But I say, did they, no, not hear? Rather, Their voice went forth into all the earth, and their sayings to the limits of the inhabited world.
19 But I say, did Israel, no, not know? First Moses says, I will provoke you to jealousy toward a non-nation. Toward a foolish nation, I will make you angry.
20 And Isaiah is very bold and says, I was found by those not seeking me. I became manifest to those not asking for me.
21 But to Israel he says, The whole day I stretched forth my hands to a disobedient and rebellious people.
