Verse Concepts
But some of the branches [of a cultivated olive tree] were broken off [i.e., God's rejection of the Jews] and you [Gentiles], representing a wild olive tree [branch], were grafted into it. So then, you [Gentiles] were able to benefit from the roots and sap of the olive tree, along with the Jews.
Verse Concepts
For if God did not spare the natural branches [i.e., the Jews], He will not spare you [Gentiles] either.
