Romans 11:13

Israel’s Rejection Not Final

11 I say then, have they stumbled that they should fall? Certainly not! But ^athrough their fall, to provoke them to ^bjealousy, salvation has come to the Gentiles.

12 Now if their¹ fall is riches for the world, and their failure riches for the Gentiles, how much more their fullness!

13 For I speak to you Gentiles; inasmuch as ^aI am an apostle to the Gentiles, I magnify my ministry,

14 if by any means I may provoke to jealousy those who are my flesh and ^asave some of them.

15 For if their being cast away is the reconciling of the world, what will their acceptance be ^abut life from the dead?
