Paul is urging Jews to be at work in God's mission to the nations,
The NT interp of the OT is the official meaning, sorry for those of you stuck in the neo-Judaism of 2P2P.
Made up, or stolen from one of your 364 dusty books on the subject.
The open-ended questions are still in your court: what is 'saved' in Romans?
Then why in hell is there 2500 passages saying quite otherwise in the NT?
Nowhere in Romans does saved mean a restoration of Israel's theocracy. It is instead a way of grouping the 3 aspects of redemption together: justification, sanctification, glorification. In 11 itself, Paul is urging Jews to be at work in God's mission to the nations, and not to rely on one's race or ethnicity. And then as part of quoting Isaiah in these verses, the word 'saved' is said to be the taking away of sins, the same expression used by John the baptist. And after the expression 'all Israel saved' he explains that God no longer does special treatment with any ethne; being stuck in sin or gaining mercy is now in relation to the Gospel.
But because 2P2P in D'ism keeps forcing itself on the Bible, all of a sudden, 'saved' means a restoration of Israel to D'ists.
There are other things that qualify 'all' and 'Israel' but enough has been shown here to know that this is a 'charade' of the word saved to try to keep 2P2P alive.
He does? Paul went to the Jew first, but they rejected salvation, so he was sent to the gentile instead to make Israel jealous. Are you sure you are talking about Romans 11? Because Romans 11 says why MAD happened. To drive them to jealousy.
All Israel will be Saved means that Israel as a "NATION" turns back to God, just like Malachi 4:5-6 says, Elijah will turn Israel back to God before the Day of the Lord (Gods Wrath). Just as Zechariah 12 especially 12:10 says and just as Zechariah 13:1 says. There were still Righteous men when God turned his back on Israel, but Israel as a Nation had turned its back on God. Likewise, not every JEW will accept Jesus as their Messiah, just like all Gentiles will never accept him, BUT....Israel as a Nation turns back to God, and God turns back to them. Of course this happens after the times of the Gentiles is fulfilled (when the Church is Raptured to Heaven) Israel REPENTS and then when the Abomination of Desolation happens, God protects Israel and feeds them for 1260 Days, when they FLEE Jerusalem, unto the Wilderness.
Israel accepts Jesus as their Messiah, just like Daniels 70 Week Decree says will happen, before the 70th week passes, Israel MUST ATONE FOR THEIR SINS.....BEFORE !! Its obvious.
But in 11:30 it is clear that God does not deal with ethnes any more. Everything is done through Christ. The Israel of v26 is all people who believe, and 'saved' in Romans always means justification from sins. It does not mean a restored Davidic theocracy.
You have several other elements that you are locating in the future, but the NT does not do this. They took place in the destruction of Israel in the 6th decade of the 1st century because of Israel's rejection of the mission of the Gospel.
No NT passage about the 2nd coming in judgement has any Judaic details to it, for ex., 2 Pet 3.
All Israel means ALL ISRAEL. It has nothing to do with the Church. This is why you guys get confused about the Rapture and everything else. You want to replace Israel with the Church. IT AIN'T HAPPENING.
