Did god make the Jews reject Jesus so the gentiles can be blessed? ~ Cross reference of Romans 11:34 to Isaiah 40:13, Job 41:11


Paul comes up with a very aggressive statement that the Jews did not accept Jesus so the gentiles can get the blessing of knowing & accepting Jesus.

Jesus claimed that he was sent by god to save the lost sheep of Israel and Paul here seems to say that, Jesus was supposed to be rejected by the Jews even though he came only for the Jews and this was part of god's plan.

What is even more strange is that Paul claims, that god makes people disobedient so he can have grace on the disobedient people. Kind of strange that god does these kind of confusing acts.

I don't have much to write here as Paul writes a doxology that could have been sung in the early churches to praise

Only point I can call out is that neither Isaiah nor Job has anything to do with the messiah or rejecting the messiah or people being disobedient. Both these passages are about how the ONE TRUE G-D of the universe is the creator of every thing that exists and that he owns his creation.

This post is not intended to offend anyone's faith but for those people who are Seeking the truth of THE ONE TRUE G-D of the universe to who we owe all our love, gratitude & devotion.

My encouragement to you is that you read the whole chapter of Tanakh that the Greek text quotes so you get the context and understand what G-d actually said.


G-d Bless and Seek THE Truth.

Romans 11:34 “Who has known the mind of the Lord? Or who has been his counselor?” 35 “Who has ever given to God, that God should repay them?”

Isaiah 40:13 Who meted the spirit of the Lord, and His adviser who informs Him? 

Job 41:11 Who has a claim against me that I must pay? Everything under heaven belongs to me.
