Commentary on Romans 11:3

Theological / Devotional

Lord, they have killed. The quotation is from 1 Kings 19:10, 14. The words were spoken by Elijah when he had fled from Jezebel to the cave in Mount Horeb (see on 1 Kings 19). At that time the prophet believed that the entire nation of Israel had apostatized and that he alone remained faithful. But God replied that, although it was true that the nation as a whole had deserted Him, nevertheless there was still a remnant of faithful worshipers.
