Israel and the Church—Bruce Anstey [French]
Tags:
The apostle Paul teaches 3 things in Romans 11:
1) Israel as a nation has been temporarily set aside.
2) Not all Jews are rejected because many, including he himself, have received Christ and joined the church.
3) The OT prophets clearly state that God will again enter into a relationship with Israel to produce a remnant which He will bless abundantly.
To illustrate God's relationship with Israel and the other nations, Paul uses the figure of an olive tree. The holy root alludes to Abraham who was placed in a holy association with God that does not imply salvation for those who follow him (it is a privileged relationship as in 1 Cor. 7:14).
The illustration of the olive tree shows that God has temporarily taken away the place that rebellious Israel had taken. Meanwhile, God gives this place to the non-Jews in Christianity... but they too can lose it. When they have lost it, Israel will be restored to that place during the Millennium.
