NHEB(i)
1 I ask then, has God rejected his people? Absolutely not. For I also am an Israelite, a descendant of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin.
2 God did not reject his people, which he foreknew. Or do you not know what the Scripture says about Elijah? How he pleads with God against Israel:
3 "Lord, they have killed your prophets, they have broken down your altars; and I am left alone, and they seek my life."
4 But how does God answer him? "I have kept for myself seven thousand people, who have not bowed the knee to Baal."
5 Even so then at this present time also there is a remnant according to the election of grace.
6 And if by grace, then it is no longer of works; otherwise grace is no longer grace.
