What does Romans 11:30-31 Mean?

Contextual Meaning

These verses are a warning to Gentile believers. Gentiles should beware of becoming critical of God for planning to bless the Jews in the future. We should also beware of becoming proud because we are presently the special objects of God"s favor. We need to remember that God chose Israel so we Gentiles could enjoy salvation ( Genesis 12:1-3).
