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.
