Romans 11:10-12
Holman Christian Standard Bible
Israel’s Rejection Not Final
11 I ask, then, have they stumbled in order to fall? Absolutely not! On the contrary, by their stumbling,[b] salvation has come to the Gentiles(B) to make Israel jealous. 12 Now if their stumbling[c] brings riches for the world, and their failure riches for the Gentiles, how much more will their full number bring!(C)

Gentiles Grafted In
11 So I ask, did they stumble in order that they might fall? By no means! Rather, through their trespass (A)salvation has come to the Gentiles, so as to make Israel jealous. 12 Now if their trespass means riches for the world, and if their failure means riches for the Gentiles, how much more will their full inclusion[a] mean!

1599 Geneva Bible
10 Let their eyes be darkened that they see not, and bow down their back always.
11 [a]I demand then, Have they stumbled, that they should fall? God forbid: but through their fall, salvation cometh unto the Gentiles, to provoke them to follow them.
12 Wherefore if the fall of them be the [b]riches of the world, and the diminishing of them the riches of the Gentiles, how much more shall their [c]abundance be?

- Romans 11:11 God appointed this casting out of the Jews, that it might be an occasion to call the Gentiles: and again might turn this calling of the Gentiles, to be an occasion to restore the Jews, to wit, that they being inflamed and provoked by emulation of the Gentiles, might themselves at length embrace the Gospel. And hereby we may learn, that the severity of God serveth as well for the setting forth of his glory as his mercy doth, and also that God prepares himself a way to mercy, by his severity, so that we ought not rashly to despair of any man, nor proudly triumph over other men, but rather provoke them to an holy emulation, that God may be glorified in them also.
- Romans 11:12 By riches he meaneth the knowledge of the Gospel to everlasting life: and by the world, all nations dispersed throughout the whole world.
- Romans 11:12 Of the Jews, when the whole nation without exception shall come to Christ.
