Romans 11:11
11:11 I ask then, they did not stumble into an irrevocable fall, 1 did they? Absolutely not! But by their transgression salvation has come to the Gentiles, to make Israel 2 jealous.
Romans 11:22
11:22 Notice therefore the kindness and harshness of God – harshness toward those who have fallen, but
3 God’s kindness toward you, provided you continue in his kindness;
4 otherwise you also will be cut off.
Romans 14:4
14:4 Who are you to pass judgment on another’s servant? Before his own master he stands or falls. And he will stand, for the Lord
5 is able to make him stand.
1 tn Grk “that they might fall.”
2 tn Grk “them”; the referent (Israel, cf. 11:7) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
3 tn Greek emphasizes the contrast between these two clauses more than can be easily expressed in English.
4 tn Grk “if you continue in (the) kindness.”
5 tc Most mss, especially Western and Byzantine (D F G 048 33 1739 1881 Ï latt), read θεός (qeos, “God”) in place of κύριος (kurios, “Lord”) here. However, κύριος is found in many of the most important mss (Ì46 א A B C P Ψ pc co), and θεός looks to be an assimilation to θεός in v. 3.
