If blindness in part is come to Israel UNTIL the fullness of the Gentiles be come in, what does this mean for Gentiles after the 1st century?
I also think it is interesting to note that Paul refers to the Gentiles and Israel not as a single unit here but distinctively, which seems to be set apart from the Church which doesn't have that distinction.
