Romans 11:19 - Forerunner Commentary

Romans 11:19

17 And if ^asome of the branches were broken off, ^band you, being a wild olive tree, were grafted in among them, and with them became a partaker of the root and¹ fatness of the olive tree,

18 ^ado not boast against the branches. But if you do boast, remember that you do not support the root, but the root supports you.

19 You will say then, “Branches were broken off that I might be grafted in.”

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

21 For if God did not spare the natural branches, He may not spare you either.

22 Therefore consider the goodness and severity of God: on those who fell, severity; but toward you,¹ goodness, ^aif you continue in His goodness. Otherwise ^byou also will be cut off.

23 And they also, ^aif they do not continue in unbelief, will be grafted in, for God is able to graft them in again.

Romans 11:19-22

I will mention just one more, which is the branches that are grafted in Romans 11:19-22. The natural branches were broken off because of unbelief. Paul warns the Romans not to be haughty but to fear because God would cut them off also if they did not continue in goodness.
