On Romans 11: "It also is significant that Paul never articulates his mission as a realization of Jewish eschatology. The apocalyptic, two-age framework of history is everywhere assumed, and though Paul could have easily described his ministry in terms of realized eschatology, he simply does not. If we would find such a thing anywhere in Paul’s writings, then we should find it in Romans 11. Rather, Paul seems to simply understand his mission to be part of a divine novelty of mercy within an unchanged Jewish apocalyptic framework." -John P. Harrigan
