Not however that the Word of God has failed, for not all those of Israel are Israel;

Isaiah also cries concerning Israel, "Though the number of the sons of Israel is as the sands of the sea, a remnant shall be saved.

But Israel, who followed after a law of righteousness did not arrive at a law of righteousness.

Brothers, truly my heart's desire and prayer to God for Israel is for it to be saved.

But I say, Did not Israel know? First Moses says, "I will provoke you to jealousy by those who are no people, and by a foolish nation I will anger you."

But to Israel He says, "All day long I have stretched forth My hands to a disobeying and gainsaying people."

God did not thrust out His people whom He foreknew. Or do you not know what the Scripture said in Elijah, how he pleaded with God against Israel, saying,

What then? Israel has not obtained that which it seeks, but the election obtained it, and the rest were hardened

For I do not want you to be ignorant of this mystery, brothers, lest you should be wise within yourselves; that blindness in part has happened to Israel, until the fullness of the nations has comes in.

And so all Israel shall be saved; as it is written, "There shall come out of Zion the Deliverer, and He will turn away ungodliness from Jacob.
