Romans 11
RomansSteve Gregg
In "Romans 11," Steve Gregg provides a theological interpretation of Paul's discussion of Israel in his letter to the Romans. Gregg argues that Paul is clarifying the definition of Israel and that both Jews and Gentiles are saved through their faith in Christ. Paul uses the imagery of the olive tree to illustrate that the Church is the true Israel, and that salvation is conditional for both Jews and Gentiles. Gregg emphasizes the importance of grace and humility towards the Jewish people, and ultimately gives glory to God for His unsearchable wisdom and grace.
