Context: Romans 11
31Even so have these also now not believed, that through your mercy they also may obtain mercy.
32For God hath concluded them all in unbelief, that he might have mercy upon all.
33O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! how unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past finding out!
34For who hath known the mind of the Lord? or who hath been his counseller?
35Or who hath first given to him, and it shall be recompensed unto him again?
About Romans 11: Israel's Rejection and the Gentiles' Acceptance
Paul teaches that the rejection of some of the Israelites does not mean that God has rejected them as a whole, and that Gentiles are included in the plan of salvation.
Commentary
Romans 11 is a chapter that speaks to the importance of God's faithfulness and His plan for the salvation of all mankind. Paul begins by reminding the readers of the importance of the Jews in God's plan of salvation. He explains that although the majority of the Jews have rejected Jesus as the Messiah, God has not abandoned them. He has kept a remnant of faithful Jews who will be saved. Paul then goes on to explain that the Gentiles have been grafted into the tree of salvation, and that they too will be saved if they remain faithful to God.
