so they have now been disobedient in order that by the mercy shown to you they also may receive mercy.
But they have not all obeyed the gospel; for Isaiah says, “Lord, who has believed what he has heard from us?”
For if their rejection means the reconciliation of the world, what will their acceptance mean but life from the dead?
Lest you be wise in your own conceits, I want you to understand this mystery, brethren: a hardening has come upon part of Israel, until the full number of the Gentiles come in,
Just as you were once disobedient to God but now have received mercy because of their disobedience,
For God has consigned all men to disobedience, that he may have mercy upon all.
