Romans 11:29 - Forerunner Commentary

Romans 11:29

27 For ^athis is My covenant with them,
When I take away their sins.”

28 Concerning the gospel they are enemies for your sake, but concerning the election they are ^abeloved for the sake of the fathers.

29 For the gifts and the calling of God are ^airrevocable.

30 For as you ^awere once disobedient to God, yet have now obtained mercy through their disobedience,

31 even so these also have now been disobedient, that through the mercy shown you they also may obtain mercy.

32 For God has¹ committed them ^aall to disobedience, that He might have mercy on all.

33 Oh, the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are His judgments and His ways past finding out!

34 “For who has known the ^amind of the Lord?
Or ^bwho has become His counselor?”

35 “Or^a who has first given to Him
And it shall be repaid to him?”

36 For ^aof Him and through Him and to Him are all things, ^bto whom be glory forever. Amen.
