Paul's Deep Sorrow for Israel

Romans 9:1-5

I speak the truth in Christ; I am not lying, as confirmed by my conscience in the Holy Spirit.

I have deep sorrow and unceasing anguish in my heart.

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,

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.

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