DEEP SHEET Study Questions
1.   How is Romans 9-11 meant to strengthen our trust in God?
2.   What is “redemptive history,” and where does Paul situate the Gentiles in this larger story?
3.   Why does Gentile salvation provoke Israel to jealousy? How does God’s purpose to use our salvation to provoke the Jews humble us?
4.   What’s the contrast between Israel’s present and future situation? How does this inform our basic eschatology?
5.   How do vv. 12 and 15 present Israel as a catalyst for worldwide blessing? What does he mean by “life from the dead” in v. 15?
