Romans 11:16
Compare all
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?  
16 For if athe firstfruit is holy, the lump is also holy; and if the root is holy, so are the branches.

20 Well said. Because of aunbelief they were broken off, and you stand by faith. Do not be haughty, but fear.

25 For I do not desire, brethren, that you should be ignorant of this mystery, lest you should be awise in your own opinion, that bblindness in part has happened to Israel cuntil the fullness of the Gentiles has come in.  
26 And so all Israel will be1 saved, as it is written:
a“The Deliverer will come out of Zion,
And He will turn away ungodliness from Jacob;
