Romans 10:1-4

Israel's Unbelief

1 Brothers, 1 my heart's desire and prayer to God for them is that they may be saved. 2 For I bear them witness that b they have a zeal for God, c but not according to knowledge. 3 For, being ignorant of d the righteousness of God, and seeking to establish their own, they did not submit to God's righteousness. 4 For e Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes. 2
