1 I ask, then, has God rejected his people? By no means! I myself am an Israelite, a descendant of Abraham, a member of the tribe of Benjamin.

Romans 11:1 In-Context

1 I ask, then, has God rejected his people? By no means! I myself am an Israelite, a descendant of Abraham, a member of the tribe of Benjamin.
2 God has not rejected his people whom he foreknew. Do you not know what the scripture says of Elijah, how he pleads with God against Israel?
3 "Lord, they have killed your prophets, they have demolished your altars; I alone am left, and they are seeking my life."
4 But what is the divine reply to him? "I have kept for myself seven thousand who have not bowed the knee to Baal."
5 So too at the present time there is a remnant, chosen by grace.
