Adam Clarke Bible Commentary
For this is my covenant unto them, when I shall take away their sins - The reader on referring to Isa 59:20, Isa 59:21, will find that the words of the original are here greatly abridged. They are the following: - And the Redeemer shall come to Zion, and unto them that turn from transgression in Jacob, saith the Lord. As for me, this is my covenant with them, saith the Lord, My Spirit that is upon thee, and my words which I have put in thy mouth, shall not depart out of thy mouth, nor out of the mouth of thy seed, nor out of the mouth of thy seed's seed, saith the Lord, from henceforth and for ever. For the manner in which St. Paul makes his quotation from Scripture, see the observations at the end of the preceding chapter, (Rom 10:21 (note), Part I.). The whole of these two verses should be read in a parenthesis, as I have marked them in the text; for it is evident that the 25th verse should be immediately connected with the 28th. It may not be amiss to subjoin here a collection of those texts in the Old Testament that seem to point out a restoration of the Jewish commonwealth to a higher degree of excellence than it has yet attained. Isa 2:2-5; Isa 19:24, Isa 19:25; Isa 25:6, etc.; Isa 30:18, Isa 30:19, Isa 30:26; Isaiah 60:1-22; Isa 65:17-25; Jer 31:10-12; Jer 46:27, Jer 46:28; Eze 20:34, Eze 20:40, etc.; Eze 28:25, Eze 28:26; Eze 34:20, etc.; Eze 36:8-16; Eze 37:21-28; Eze 39:25, etc.; Joe 3:1, Joe 3:2, Joe 3:17, Joe 3:20, Joe 3:21; Amo 9:9-15; Oba 1:17, Oba 1:21; Mic 4:3-7; Mic 7:18-20; Zep 3:19, Zep 3:20.
Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Bible Commentary
For--rather, "and" (again); introducing a new quotation. this is my covenant with them--literally, "this is the covenant from me unto them." when I shall take away their sins--This, we believe, is rather a brief summary of Jer 31:31-34 than the express words of any prediction, Those who believe that there are no predictions regarding the literal Israel in the Old Testament, that stretch beyond the end of the Jewish economy, are obliged to view these quotations by the apostle as mere adaptations of Old Testament language to express his own predictions [ALEXANDER on Isaiah, &c.]. But how forced this is, we shall presently see.
John Gill Bible Commentary
For this is my covenant unto them,.... This is what God has promised to them in covenant, and he will be as good as his word; his covenant will never be broken, it will always remain sure and inviolable; so that there is not only a possibility, and a probability, but even a certainty, of the call and conversion of the Jews; which promise and covenant will have their accomplishment, when I, saith the Lord, shall take away their sins: some think that the apostle alludes to Jer 31:34; others, that he takes this passage out of Isa 27:9; where in the Septuagint version the selfsame phrase is used; though it may be no citation, or reference, but the apostle's own words, explaining what is meant by "turning away ungodliness from Jacob", Rom 11:26; and as before; regards not the taking away of their sins by the sacrifice of Christ, which is done already, and is what the blood of bulls and goats could not do; but of the removing of their sins from themselves, from their consciences, by the application of the blood of Christ, and the imputation of his righteousness.
Romans 11:27
All Israel Will Be Saved
26And so all Israel will be saved, as it is written: “The Deliverer will come from Zion; He will remove godlessness from Jacob. 27And this is My covenant with them when I take away their sins.”

Jeremiah - New Covenant
By Stephen Kaung1.4K1:16:18JeremiahEXO 19:5ISA 59:20JER 31:31MAT 6:33ROM 11:27HEB 8:7HEB 10:16In this sermon, Brother Stephen Kong discusses the importance of listening to the Holy Spirit and having a personal communion with God. He emphasizes that knowing the truth intuitively, rather than just mentally, is what sets us free. Kong highlights three precious things found in the New Covenant: forgiveness of sin, knowledge of God, and the power of life. He encourages believers to live in the grace of the New Covenant and reminds them that God has provided everything they need. The sermon is based on Jeremiah 31 and references the verse "You shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free."
The New Temple & Two Witnesses
By Danny Bond60248:04ECC 3:11ZEC 4:6ROM 11:27GAL 3:24REV 11:1REV 11:4In this sermon, the preacher discusses a passage from the book of Revelation that describes a powerful event where believers are taken up to heaven. The preacher emphasizes the fear and awe that this event brings upon those who witness it. He also mentions an earthquake that occurs at the same time, resulting in the death of 7,000 people, possibly the royal guard of the Antichrist. The preacher then explains the significance of a measuring rod given to John in the vision, suggesting that it represents the measurement and judgment of the temple.
Part 18: The New Covenant With Israel
By John F. Walvoord0JER 31:31ROM 11:271CO 11:252CO 3:6HEB 8:6HEB 10:16HEB 12:24John F. Walvoord delves into the significance of the new covenant with Israel, highlighting its importance alongside the Abrahamic and Davidic covenants in determining the destiny of the nation. The sermon explores the promises, problems of interpretation, and provisions of the new covenant, emphasizing the differing views of postmillennial, amillennial, and premillennial interpretations. It concludes with a detailed analysis of the New Testament teachings on the new covenant, particularly focusing on the future fulfillment of the covenant with Israel after the second coming of Christ.
