    11I say then, Did they stumble that they might fall? God forbid: but by their fall salvation [is come] unto the Gentiles, to provoke them to jealousy.

    12Now if their fall, is the riches of the world, and their loss the riches of the Gentiles; how much more their fulness?

    14if by any means I may provoke to jealousy [them that are] my flesh, and may save some of them.

    15For if the casting away of them [is] the reconciling of the world, what [shall] the receiving [of them be], but life from the dead?

    19Thou wilt say then, Branches were broken off, that I might be grafted in.

    20Well; by their unbelief they were broken off, and thou standest by thy faith. Be not highminded, but fear:

    21for if God spared not the natural branches, neither will he spare thee.

    22Behold then the goodness and severity of God: toward them that fell, severity; but toward thee, God's goodness, if thou continue in his goodness: otherwise thou also shalt be cut off.

    23And they also, if they continue not in their unbelief, shall be grafted in: for God is able to graft them in again.

    24For if thou wast cut out of that which is by nature a wild olive tree, and wast grafted contrary to nature into a good olive tree; how much more shall these, which are the natural [branches], be grafted into their own olive tree?

    25For I would not, brethren, have you ignorant of this mystery, lest ye be wise in your own conceits, that a hardening in part hath befallen Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in;
