Romans 11:9-10 : And David saith, Let their table be made a snare, and a trap, and a stumbling block, and recompense unto them: let their eyes be darkened, that they may not see, and bow thou down their back always. "Their table" was put for their religious food. Instead of being led to Christ by the law they were entrapped by their blind adherence to the law; they were caught as in a snare. And their blind adherence to the law would be their recompense, and that would amount to condemnation. Their rejection of Christ and their blind devotion to the law was their ruin. Paul said such people judged themselves unworthy of eternal life (Acts 13:46). In clinging to the law and rejecting Christ, the Jews were wearing a yoke which they were not able to bear (Acts 15:10). Their course brought upon themselves the destruction of their na-tion and hard servitude.
