1. My brothers and sisters, how I wish with all my heart that my own people might be saved! How I pray to God for them!
2. I can assure you that they are deeply devoted to God; but their devotion is not based on true knowledge.
3. They have not known the way in which God puts people right with himself, and instead, they have tried to set up their own way; and so they did not submit themselves to God's way of putting people right.
4. For Christ has brought the Law to an end, so that everyone who believes is put right with God.
