I ask then, did God reject his people? May it never be! For I also am an Israelite, a descendant of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin.
Romans 11:2
God didn’t reject his people, whom he foreknew. Or don’t you know what the Scripture says about Elijah? How he pleads with God against Israel:

But if some of the branches were broken off, and you, being a wild olive, were grafted in among them and became partaker with them of the root and of the richness of the olive tree,
Romans 11:23
They also, if they don’t continue in their unbelief, will be grafted in, for God is able to graft them in again.

What shall we say then? That the Gentiles, who didn’t follow after righteousness, attained to righteousness, even the righteousness which is of faith;
Romans 9:31
but Israel, following after a law of righteousness, didn’t arrive at the law of righteousness.
Romans 9:32
Why? Because they didn’t seek it by faith, but as it were by works of the law. They stumbled over the stumbling stone,
Romans 9:33
even as it is written, “Behold, I lay in Zion a stumbling stone and a rock of offense; and no one who believes in him will be disappointed.”
Romans 10:3
For being ignorant of God’s righteousness, and seeking to establish their own righteousness, they didn’t subject themselves to the righteousness of God.
