The Gospel Given to Us as a Deposit for the Jews
Romans 11:30-32
For as you in times past have not believed God, yet have now obtained mercy through their unbelief:…


Observe —

I. THE MYSTERIOUS WAY IS WHICH GOD HAS DISPENSED HIS BLESSINGS TO MANKIND — first the Jew, then the Gentile; all Israel, then the fulness of the Gentiles. The mysteriousness of this plan — delay, partial bestowment, transfer, final restoration.

II. THE DESIGN OF IT.

1. To provoke the Jews to jealousy.

2. To provoke the Christian world to love.

(J. Lyth, D. D.)
