Jen Wilkin, JT English, and Kyle Worley continue their discussion on Romans by looking at Romans 11:1-24 and also discuss covenantal vs. dispensational views on God’s faithfulness to Israel.
Questions Covered in This Episode:
- What is the central question of these verses?
- Why would Paul feel the need to preemptively respond to this question? What objection is he anticipating?
- Who are “His people” (V. 1) and “they” (V. 11)?
- V. 11,13 “Israel jealous?”
- Would you say that there are some promises that are going to find a unique fulfillment for the broader conception of Israel that are still on the table?
- Is Israel given primacy of place in the order of who received revelation and/or in God's grand scheme of salvation?
- Do you think most Christian Evangelecals today hold to a broadly dispensational view of God’s covenant faithfulness to Israel?
- Does context matter in this discussion?
Helpful Definitions:
- Covenantal: Emphasize the unity of the Biblical text from Genesis to Revelation.
- Dispensational: Read God’s covenantal history as progressive.
