Gentiles Grafted In
11So I ask, did they stumble in order that they might fall? By no means! Rather, through their trespass csalvation has come to the Gentiles, so as to make Israel jealous. 12Now if their trespass means riches for the world, and if their failure means riches for the Gentiles, how much more will their full inclusion ▼▼Greek their fullness

of the olive tree,
