1 | I need commentary on Romans 11:7. Thanks | Rom 9:32 | Azuka China | 115957 | ||
Could you please discuss Romans 11:7 in details for me. I want to know if what I have in mind is correct. I believe "Faith and Patience" is what the Israelites who were blinded lacked and it caused their not obtaining what the were seeking for. I wait for your contributions |

2 | I need commentary on Romans 11:7. Thanks | Rom 9:32 | Emmaus | 115958 | ||
They lacked faith in Jesus, which blinded them in their search for salvation. They trusted in works of the Law, rather than the grace of the Lord who gave the Law. Rom 9:31 but Israel, pursuing a law of righteousness, did not arrive at that law. Rom 9:32 Why? Because they did not pursue it by faith, but as though it were by works. They stumbled over the stumbling stone, Rom 9:33 just as it is written, "BEHOLD, I LAY IN ZION A STONE OF STUMBLING AND A ROCK OF OFFENSE, AND HE WHO BELIEVES IN HIM WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED." 2 Cor 3:14 But their minds were hardened; for until this very day at the reading of the old covenant the same veil remains unlifted, because it is removed in Christ. 2 Cor 3:15 But to this day whenever Moses is read, a veil lies over their heart; 2 Cor 3:16 but whenever a person turns to the Lord, the veil is taken away |

3 | Is Moses a man of faith. Heb. 11 | Rom 9:32 | Azuka China | 115963 | ||
Could Moses be referred to as a man of faith? In Hebrew 11, he was mentioned but then he did not get to the promised land because of anger. | ||||||
4 | Is Moses a man of faith. Heb. 11 | Rom 9:32 | Emmaus | 115968 | ||
Moses, as you noted is mentioned among those that lived by faith. His punishment of not entering the promised land was a temporal, not eternal punishment. He was punished for striking the rock, not just speaking to it as God commanded. You may also recall Moses meeting Jesus and Elijah on the mountain of the Transfiguration in Luke 9:28-36, so we can assume Moses and Jesus were on good terms. Num 20:8 "Take the rod; and you and your brother Aaron assemble the congregation and speak to the rock before their eyes, that it may yield its water. You shall thus bring forth water for them out of the rock and let the congregation and their beasts drink." Num 20:10 and Moses and Aaron gathered the assembly before the rock. And he said to them, "Listen now, you rebels; shall we bring forth water for you out of this rock?" Num 20:11 Then Moses lifted up his hand and struck the rock twice with his rod; and water came forth abundantly, and the congregation and their beasts drank Num 20:12 But the LORD said to Moses and Aaron, "Because you have not believed Me, to treat Me as holy in the sight of the sons of Israel, therefore you shall not bring this assembly into the land which I have given them." |
