You will say then, The branches were broken off, that I might be grafted in.
All Commentaries on Romans 11:19 Go To Romans 11
Cyril of Jerusalem
AD 386
When you were stripped you were anointed with exorcised olive oil, from the topmost hairs of your head to the soles of your feet, and became partakers of the good olive tree, Jesus Christ. Cuttings from the wild olive tree, you were grafted into the good olive tree and became partakers of the richness of the true olive tree.
