- Romans 11:17 But some of these branches from Abraham’s tree—some of the people of Israel—have been broken off. And you Gentiles, who were branches from a wild olive tree, have been grafted in. So now you also receive the blessing God has promised Abraham and his children, sharing in the rich nourishment from the root of God’s special olive tree.
- Romans 11:19 “Well,” you may say, “those branches were broken off to make room for me.”
- Romans 11:23 And if the people of Israel turn from their unbelief, they will be grafted in again, for God has the power to graft them back into the tree.
- Romans 11:24 You, by nature, were a branch cut from a wild olive tree. So if God was willing to do something contrary to nature by grafting you into his cultivated tree, he will be far more eager to graft the original branches back into the tree where they belong.
