Verse 27
Isaiah 27:9 also predicted a great removal of Israel’s sins (the sins of believing Jews when Christ returns) and connected it with the bestowal of the New Covenant blessings on Israel (cf. Jeremiah 31:31-34).
". . . the history of God’s dealings with ethnic Israel as set out in Romans 11:1-10, the logic of Israel’s reversal of fortune in Romans 11:11-15, supported by the illustration of the olive tree and the regrafting of the natural branches of ethnic Israel into it ’again’ in Romans 11:16-24, and the prophecy of the salvation of ’all Israel’ in Romans 11:25-27 combine to establish the future of ethnic Israel as a glorious hope of both Israel and the church."
