Romans 9:5

Read in context

Romans 9:3–7 · Berean Standard Bible

3 For I could wish that I myself were cursed and cut off from Christ for the sake of my brothers, my own flesh and blood,

4 the people of Israel. Theirs is the adoption as sons; theirs the divine glory and the covenants; theirs the giving of the law, the temple worship, and the promises.

5 Theirs are the patriarchs, and from them proceeds the human descent of Christ, who is God over all, forever worthy of praise! Amen.

6 It is not as though God’s word has failed. For not all who are descended from Israel are Israel.

7 Nor because they are Abraham’s descendants are they all his children. On the contrary, “Through Isaac your offspring will be reckoned.”
