Romans 11:24 - Coke's Commentary on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

The olive-tree, which is wild by nature—which be the natural branches— The original in both these places is κατα φυσιν, and therefore our translators should either have rendered it in the first clause, The natural wild-olive tree, or in the latter, Which are branches by nature. See Heylin.

Romans 11:24

24 For if thou wert cut out of the olive tree which is wild by nature, and wert graffed contrary to nature into a good olive tree: how much more shall these, which be the natural branches, be graffed into their own olive tree?
