Romans 10:19

Romans 10:19

17 So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.

18 But I say, have they not heard? Yes indeed:
^a“Their sound has gone out to all the earth,
And their words to the ends of the world.”

19 But I say, did Israel not know? First Moses says:
^a“I will provoke you to jealousy by those who are not a nation,
I will move you to anger by a ^bfoolish nation.”

20 But Isaiah is very bold and says:
^a“I was found by those who did not seek Me;
I was made manifest to those who did not ask for Me.”

21 But to Israel he says:
^a“All day long I have stretched out My hands
To a disobedient and contrary people.”

Romans 10:20 >>

But hath not Israel known - They might have known, even from Moses and Isaiah, that many of the gentiles would be received, and many of the Jews rejected. I will provoke you to jealousy by them that are not a nation - As they followed gods that were not gods, so he accepted in their stead a nation that was not a nation; that is, a nation that was not in covenant with God. A foolish nation - Such are all which know not God. Deuteronomy 32:21
