1Siblings, my heart’s desire and my prayer to God for them is for their salvation.
2For I testify about them that they have zeal for God, but not in accordance with knowledge.
3Since they were not understanding God’s righteousness and were seeking to establish their own righteousness, they did not submit to the righteousness of God.
4For Christ is the end of the law, and there is righteousness for everyone who believes.
5For Moses writes about the righteousness from the law, “The human who does these things will live by them.”
14How then can they call on him they have not believed in? And how can they believe in him whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without a preacher?
15And how can they preach unless they are sent? As it is written:
“How beautiful are the feet of those,
who bring the good news of good things!”
16But they didn’t all listen to the good news. For Isaiah says, “Lord, who has believed our report?”
19But I ask, didn’t Israel know? First Moses says,
“I will provoke y’all to jealousy with those who are not an ethnic group.
I will enrage y’all with an ethnic group that lacks understanding.”
20Isaiah is very bold and says,
“I was found by those who didn’t seek me.
I revealed myself to those who didn’t ask for me.”
21But about Israel he says, “All day long I stretched out my hands to a disobedient and contrary people.”
