In context
1 I say the truth in Christ, I lie not, my conscience also bearing me testimony in the Holy Spirit,
2 That I have great heaviness and continual sorrow in my heart.
3 For I could wish that myself were accursed from Christ, for my brethren, my kinsmen according to the flesh:
4 Who are Israelites; to whom [pertain] the adoption, and the glory, and the covenants, and the giving of the law, and the service [of God], and the promises;
5 Whose [are] the fathers, and from whom according to the flesh, Christ [came], who is over all, God blessed for ever. Amen.
6 Not as though the word of God hath taken no effect. For they [are] not all Israel, who are [descendants] from Israel?
