Israel’s Rejection Not Total
1 I say then, ahas God cast away His people? bCertainly not! For cI also am an Israelite, of the seed of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin.
2 God has not cast away His people whom aHe foreknew. Or do you not know what the Scripture says of Elijah, how he pleads with God against Israel, saying,
3 a“Lord, they have killed Your prophets and torn down Your altars, and I alone am left, and they seek my life”?
4 But what does the divine response say to him? a“I have reserved for Myself seven thousand men who have not bowed the knee to Baal.”
5 aEven so then, at this present time there is a remnant according to the election of grace.
6 And aif by grace, then it is no longer of works; otherwise grace is no longer grace.1 But if it is of works, it is no longer grace; otherwise work is no longer work.
