The Remnant of Israel
11 I ask then: Did God reject his
people? By
no means! I am an Israelite myself, a descendant of Abraham, from the tribe
of Benjamin. 2 God did
not reject his
people, whom
he foreknew. Don’t you know what Scripture says in the passage about
Elijah—how he appealed to God against Israel: 3 “Lord, they
have killed your prophets and torn
down your altars; I am the only one left, and they are trying
to kill me”[a]? 4 And
what was God’s answer to him? “I have reserved for myself seven
thousand who have not bowed the knee to Baal.”[b] 5 So
too, at the present time there is a remnant chosen
by grace. 6 And
if by grace, then it cannot be based on works; if it were, grace would no
longer be grace.
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.”[c]
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.”[d]
