Bible Chapter Summary
Romans 11 Summary
The Mystery of Israel and the Doxology
God has not rejected his people. A remnant remains. All Israel will be saved. The root supports the branches, not the branches the root. The gifts and calling of God are irrevocable. Paul breaks into doxology: Oh the depth of the riches of the wisdom and knowledge of God! To him be glory forever and ever.
