“I will call those who were not my people, ‘My people,’ and I will call her who was unloved, 1 ‘My beloved.’” 2
9:26 “And in the very place 5 where it was said to them, ‘You are not my people,’
there they will be called ‘sons of the living God.’” 6
11:1 So I ask, God has not rejected his people, has he? Absolutely not! For I too am an Israelite, a descendant of Abraham, from the tribe of Benjamin. 11:2 God has not rejected his people whom he foreknew! Do you not know what the scripture says about Elijah, how he pleads with God against Israel?
