In this detailed investigation of Romans 9 and its biblical sources, Robert B. Foster argues that Paul applies texts from Malachi, Hosea, and Isaiah to the story of Abrahams children in Genesis. With this interpretation of Scripture, Paul builds a narrative-based ethnic identity for Gentiles and for Jews within the one family of Abraham.
