SEV Biblia, Chapter 11:27
y este ser mi testamento a ellos, cuando quitare sus pecados.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Romans 11:27
Verse 27. For this is my covenant unto them, when I shall take away their sins.] The reader on referring to Isa. lix. 20, 21, will find that the words of the original are here greatly abridged. They are the following:- And the Redeemer shall come to Zion, and unto them that turn from transgression in Jacob, saith the Lord. As for me, this is my covenant with them, saith the Lord, My Spirit that is upon thee, and my words which I have put in thy mouth, shall not depart out of thy mouth, nor out of the mouth of thy seed, nor out of the mouth of thy seed's seed, saith the Lord, from henceforth and for ever. For the manner in which St. Paul makes his quotation from Scripture, see the observations at the end of the preceding chapter. The whole of these two verses should be read in a parenthesis, as I have marked them in the text; for it is evident that the 25th verse should be immediately connected with the 28th.
It may not be amiss to subjoin here a collection of those texts in the Old Testament that seem to point out a restoration of the Jewish commonwealth to a higher degree of excellence than it has yet attained. Isa. ii. 2-5; xix. 24, 25; xxv. 6, &c.; xxx. 18, 19, 26; Isa. lx. 1-22; lxv. 17-25; Jer. xxxi. 10-12; xlvi. 27, 28; Ezek. xx. 34, 40, &c.; xxviii. 25, 26; xxxiv. 20, &c.; xxxvi. 8-16; xxxvii. 21-28; Ezek. xxxix. 25, &c.; Joel iii. 1, 2, 17, 20, 21; Amos ix. 9- 15; Obidiah 17, 21; Micah iv. 3-7; vii. 18-20; Zeph. iii. 19, 20.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 27. For this is my covenant unto them , etc..] This is what God has promised to them in covenant, and he will be as good as his word; his covenant will never be broken, it will always remain sure and inviolable; so that there is not only a possibility, and a probability, but even a certainty, of the call and conversion of the Jews; which promise and covenant will have their accomplishment, when I , saith the Lord, shall take away their sins : some think that the apostle alludes to ( Jeremiah 31:34); others, that he takes this passage out of ( Isaiah 27:9); where in the Septuagint version the selfsame phrase is used; though it may be no citation, or reference, but the apostle's own words, explaining what is meant by turning away ungodliness from Jacob, ( Romans 11:26); and as before; regards not the taking away of their sins by the sacrifice of Christ, which is done already, and is what the blood of bulls and goats could not do; but of the removing of their sins from themselves, from their consciences, by the application of the blood of Christ, and the imputation of his righteousness.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 22-32 - Of all judgments, spiritual judgments are the sorest; of these the apostle is here speaking. The restoration of the Jews is, in the cours of things, far less improbable than the call of the Gentiles to be the children of Abraham; and though others now possess these privileges, it will not hinder their being admitted again. By rejecting the gospel and by their indignation at its being preached to the Gentiles, the Jews were become enemies to God; yet they are still to be favoured for the sake of their pious fathers. Though at present they are enemies to the gospel, for their hatred to the Gentiles; yet, when God's time is come, that will no longer exist, and God's love to their fathers wil be remembered. True grace seeks not to confine God's favour. Those wh find mercy themselves, should endeavour that through their mercy other also may obtain mercy. Not that the Jews will be restored to have their priesthood, and temple, and ceremonies again; an end is put to all these; but they are to be brought to believe in Christ, the true becom one sheep-fold with the Gentiles, under Christ the Great Shepherd. The captivities of Israel, their dispersion, and their being shut out from the church, are emblems of the believer's corrections for doing wrong and the continued care of the Lord towards that people, and the fina mercy and blessed restoration intended for them, show the patience an love of God.
