“God gave them a spirit of stupor,
eyes that would not see and ears that would not hear,
to this very day.” 1
11:9 And David says,
“Let their table become a snare and trap,
a stumbling block and a retribution for them;
11:10 let their eyes be darkened so that they may not see,
and make their backs bend continually.” 2
11:25 For I do not want you to be ignorant of this mystery, brothers and sisters, 3 so that you may not be conceited: A partial hardening has happened to Israel 4 until the full number 5 of the Gentiles has come in.
