Romans 11:16 in context

  1. 14if by any means I may provoke to jealousy them that are my flesh, and may save some of them.
  2. 15For if the casting away of them is the reconciling of the world, what shall the receiving of them be, but life from the dead?
  3. 16And if the firstfruit is holy, so is the lump: and if the root is holy, so are the branches.
  4. 17But if some of the branches were broken off, and thou, being a wild olive, wast grafted in among them, and didst become partaker with them of the root of the fatness of the olive tree;
  5. 18glory not over the branches: but if thou gloriest, it is not thou that bearest the root, but the root thee.
