Romans11:23

23. And they also, if they abide not still in unbelief, shall be graffed in: For God is able to graff them in again .

Here he Adds another Argument, to repress the Arrogance, and Insulting of the Gentiles; and 'tis taken from the Hope of the Iews Restauration. Though for the present, they seem to be in a desperate, and forlorn Condition; yet the Restoring, and Re-engraffing of them into the Church, is not impossible. The great Obstacle is their Unbelief, which God is able to remove. The same God that rejected them, is able to restore them: To Him all Things are possible, He can cause dead and dry Bones to Live. An Argument from the Power of God (and that in the very words of this Text) is frequently made use of in Scripture, to excite hope and assurance, Chap. 4.21. and 14.4. 2 Cor. 9.8. 2 Tim. 1.12. Heb. 2.18. and 11.19.

Marginal references: 2 Cor. 3[illegible: 1 letter]
