1 I say, then, Has God rejected his people? It can not be. For I am an Israelite, of the posterity of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin.
2 God has not rejected his people whom he foreknew. Know you not what the scripture says, in regard to Elijah? how he intercedes with God against Israel, saying:
3 Lord, they have killed thy prophets, and digged down thy altars, and I am left alone, and they seek: my life.
4 But what says the answer of God to him? I have reserved for myself seven thousand men, who have not bowed the knee to Baal.
5 Thus, then, at the present time also, there is a remnant according to the election of grace.
