The conversion of the Jews was a matter of great importance to our Presbyterian forefathers. In this passage of Romans we have the promise that Israel is to be saved. The Lord Himself will pour out His Spirit upon His ancient people, and they will be grafted back into the covenant family of Jesus Christ. We are to pray for the ingathering of the Israelites as a matter of the health and well-being of the Church.
God has not entirely rejected His ancient people but has preserved a remnant to this day; a remnant of Israel serving the Lord Jesus with gladness as the Apostle Paul did in his day. As the stumbling of the Jews allowed the Gospel to go forth to the Gentiles, the restoration of the people of Israel will bring additional blessing to the Church of Christ. The eventual redemption of the Old Covenant people is to the praise and excellence of the name of Lord in that it will reveal His wisdom, judgment, and inscrutable majesty to the whole world.
