Conclusion: The Jews, at present cast off because of unbelief, will in due time as a people be taken into God's favor again, when the fullness of the Gentiles be come in and when the Deliverer (Christ) shall have appeared again. As a people they are for this age judicially blinded, although there is a remnant according to faith in Christ. The Gentiles grafted into the Church must not trample upon the Jews as a reprobate people, but remember that the law of faith excludes all boasting, either of ourselves or against others.

Striking Facts: Romans 11:25-26. The Church is a people taken from the Gentiles (Acts 15:14) and is a «full destined number» (Revelation 7:9). When the «fullness of the Gentiles» (not world conversion) is brought in, Christ is coming again, and will be soon manifested as Israel's long looked-for Deliverer.
