Romans 11:25-27
Disciples’ Literal New Testament
All Israel Will Be Saved
25 For I do not want you to be unaware, brothers, as to this mystery[a]— in order that you not be wise among yourselves— that a hardness in part[b] has happened to Israel until[c] the fullness of the Gentiles comes in. 26 And so[d] all Israel[e] will be saved, just as it has been written: “The One delivering will come[f] from Zion, He will turn-away ungodliness from Jacob. 27 And this is the covenant from Me with them, when I take-away their sins” [Isa 59:20-21].

- Romans 11:25 That is, something hidden but now revealed; something known only by revelation from God.
- Romans 11:25 That is, to part of Israel, ‘some’ of the branches, v 17.
- Romans 11:25 Paul may mean that the hardness in part ends at that future time and the fullness of response comes, a national conversion; or, that it continues until that time, implying Israel’s continued existence until Christ returns, but nothing about a national conversion.
- Romans 11:26 Or, in this manner, thus. That is, with the fullness of the Gentiles coming in, and the moving of Israel to jealousy (v 11) so that they believe (v 23) and are regrafted into their tree (v 24).
- Romans 11:26 Paul may mean the nation as a whole, Israel in contrast to the remnant, the emphasis being on ‘all’ versus ‘in part’, ending the hardness in part. Or he may mean all individual true spiritual Israelites, the remnant in contrast with Israel, the emphasis being on ‘so, in this manner’. Alongside the continuing hardness in part, all true Israelites will believe.
- Romans 11:26 Paul may be referring to the first coming, or to the second.
