Israel has not been forever set aside.
Has God rejected his people?
I ask, then, has God rejected his people? By no means! For I myself am an Israelite, a descendant of Abraham, a member of the tribe of Benjamin. Romans 11:1 English Standard Version

'That Israel has not been forever set aside is the theme of this chapter (Romans 11).
'(1) The salvation of Paul proves that there is still a remnant (Romans 11:1 )
'(2) The doctrine of the remnant proves it (Romans 11:2-6).
'(3) The present national unbelief was foreseen (Romans 11:7-10).
'(4) Israel's unbelief is the Gentile opportunity (Romans 11:11-25).
'(5) Israel is judicially broken off from the good olive tree, Christ (Romans 11:17-22 ).
'(6) They are to be grafted in again (Romans 11:23, 24).
'(7) The promised Deliverer will come out of Zion and the nation will be saved (Romans 11:25-29).
'That the Christian now inherits the distinctive Jewish promises is not taught in Scripture. The Christian is of the heavenly seed of Abraham (Genesis 15:5, 6; Galatians 3:29), and partakes of the spiritual blessings of the Abrahamic Covenant (Genesis 15:18, Scofield note); but Israel as a nation always has it own place, and is yet to have its greatest exaltation as the earthly people of God. See "Israel" (Scofield note, Genesis 12:2; Romans 11:26); "Kingdom" (Scofield note, Genesis 1:26-28; Zechariah 12:8).'
