The Jews’ failure to believe

9:30 The Jews’ failure to believe

30So then, what should we say? That non-Jews who weren’t godly, reached out by faith to achieve righteousness, 31but Jews who chased after righteousness by obeying The Law, didn’t achieve it? 32How come? Because they tried to reach it by works and not by faith. They tripped over the stumbling stone, 33[ref]as it’s written:

Look, I’m laying down a stumbling stone in Zion,

a rock that causes offence.

Anyone who believes in him,

won’t be disgraced.’

10Brothers and sisters, my heart would be very pleased indeed if Israelis would get saved, and that’s what I request from God. 2I keep telling them that they’re very zealous for God, yet they lack know-how. 3Because they don’t know what God’s righteousness is and they try to establish their own system, they weren’t covered by his righteousness. 4The fulfilment of The Law is Messiah, leading to righteousness for everyone who believes.


9:33: Isa 28:16 (LXX).
