Romans 11:11 - Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Bible Comments

Have they stumbled so as to fall — Totally and finally? No But by their fall — Or slip: it is a very soft word in the original. Salvation is come to the gentiles — See an instance of this, Acts 13:46. To provoke them — The Jews themselves, to jealousy.

Romans 11:11

11 I say then, Have they stumbled that they should fall? God forbid: but rather through their fall salvation is come unto the Gentiles, for to provoke them to jealousy.
