Israel’s Rejection of Christ

1 I atell the truth in Christ, I am not lying, my conscience also bearing me witness in the Holy Spirit,  
2 athat I have great sorrow and continual grief in my heart.  
3 For aI could wish that I myself were accursed from Christ for my brethren, my1 countrymen according to the flesh,  
4 who are Israelites, ato whom pertain the adoption, bthe glory, cthe covenants, dthe giving of the law, ethe service of God, and fthe promises;  
5 aof whom are the fathers and from bwhom, according to the flesh, Christ came, cwho is over all, the eternally blessed God. Amen.

9 For this is the word of promise: a“At this time I will come and Sarah shall have a son.”  
10 And not only this, but when aRebecca also had conceived by one man, even by our father Isaac
