CLV(i)
1 I am saying, then, Does not God thrust away His people? May it not be coming to that! For I also am an Israelite, out of Abraham's seed, Benjamin's tribe."
2 God does not thrust away His people whom He foreknew. Or have you not perceived in Elijah what the scripture is saying, as he is pleading with God against Israel?
3 Lord, Thy prophets they kill, Thine altars they dig down, and I was left alone, and they are seeking my soul."
4 But what is that which apprises saying to him? I left for Myself seven thousand men who do not bow the knee to the image of Baal.
5 Thus, then, in the current era also, there has come to be a remnant according to the choice of grace."
