27. Yeshayah proclaims concerning Yisroel, "Even if the number of the Bnei Yisroel are as the sand of the sea, only the She'erit (Remnant) will return (be saved),
28. For Hashem will complete and cut short and will perform His Word on the earth [YESHAYAH 10:22-23].
29. And as Yeshayah said beforehand, "Except Adonoi Tzvaot had left us SARID KIM'AT ("some survivors" (Ro 9:7), we would have become like S'dom and we would have been the same as Amora" [YESHAYAH 1:9].
30. What then shall we say? That Goyim who do not pursue Tzedek (righteousness) have attained Tzedek which is Tzedek through emunah,
31. Whereas Yisroel pursuing a Tzedek (righteousness) based on the Torah (see Ga 3:12-13) did not arrive at that Torah?
