For this reason, I Paul, the prisoner of the Christ Jesus on account of you Gentiles, if, indeed, you have heard of the stewardship of the grace of God, which was given to me for your benefit, that by revelation was made known to me the mystery, (as I briefly wrote above, read more.
so that, when you read, you can see my understanding in the mystery of the Christ,) which, in other generations, was not made known to the sons of men, as it is now revealed to his holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit; that the Gentiles should be fellow-heirs, and of the same body, and partakers of his promise in the Christ, through the gospel,

Romans 11:1-17

I say, then, Has God rejected his people? It can not be. For I am an Israelite, of the posterity of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin. God has not rejected his people whom he foreknew.

But what says the answer of God to him? I have reserved for myself seven thousand men, who have not bowed the knee to Baal. Thus, then, at the present time also, there is a remnant according to the election of grace. And if the election is by grace, it is no longer by works; otherwise grace is no longer grace. What then? Israel has not obtained that which he seeks; but the chosen have obtained it, and the rest have been hardened to this day, as it is written: God has given them a spirit of stupor, eyes with which they can not see, and ears with which they can not hear. And David says: Let their table become a trap, and a net, and a snare, and a recompense to them; let their eyes be darkened, so that they may not see, and let them bow down their back always. I say, then, Have they stumbled, in order that they may fall? It can not be. But rather, through their fall, salvation has come to the Gentiles, to excite them to jealousy. Now, if their fall be the riches of the world, and their loss be the riches of the Gentiles, how much more shall their full acceptance be the riches of the world? For I speak to you, Gentiles; inasmuch as I am the apostle of the Gentiles, I do honor to my ministry, if, by any means, I may excite to jealousy those who are my flesh, and save some of them. For, if the casting away of them be the reconciling of the world, what shall the reception of them be, but life from the dead? Now, if the first fruit is holy, the mass is holy also: and if the root is holy, the branches are holy also. And if some of the branches were broken off, and you, being a wild olive, have been grafted in among them, and partake with them of the root and fatness of the olive,
