Romans 11:7-10
7 What then? What the people of Israel sought so earnestly they did not obtain. The elect among them did, but the others were hardened, 8 as it is written:
“God gave them a spirit of stupor,
eyes that could not see
and ears that could not hear,
to this very day.”
9 And David says:
“May their table become a snare and a trap,
a stumbling block and a retribution for them.
10 May their eyes be darkened so they cannot see,
and their backs be bent forever.”
Amen! (Note, 2 Cor. 3: 7-16) the greater glory of the New Covenant, and toward that remnant of Israel! It will surely come… “What the people of Israel sought so earnestly they did not obtain. The elect among them did, but the others were hardened.” (Rom. 11: 7) Only an election of grace from Israel!
