Rom.11:15 For if the rejection of them is the reconciling of the world, what would their acceptance be, but life from the dead?

There is physical death, and there is a death Adam and Eve experienced in that day which is spiritual, being cut off from the source of life YHWH. In that day of disobedience sin enter into the world, and death spread to all human born from Adam's loins.

Romans 5:17 For if by the trespass of the one, death reigned through the one; so much more will those who receive the abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness reign in life through the one, Jesus Christ.

The world are all those not knowing God, or those not obeying God, Christ spoke of the Jews as the world while on earth, but here Paul speaks to the Gentles specifically. They are reconciled to God because Israel rejection of Christ caused God's rejection of them.

Romans 9:30 What shall we say then? That the Gentiles, who didn't follow after righteousness, attained to righteousness, even the righteousness which is of faith;

Romans 9:32 Why? Because they didn't seek it by faith, but as it were by works of the law. They stumbled over the stumbling stone;

The whole world will not be reconciled to God it certainly was not while Christ was in there mist, most rejected Christ causing God to reject the world Christ was born into. That world was the Jewish system of things, a world of religion that no longer worshiped God in faith.

John 8:23 He said to them, "You are from beneath. I am from above. You are of this world. I am not of this world.

John 1:10 He was in the world, and the world was made through him, and the world didn't recognize him.

Luke 10:16 Whoever listens to you listens to me, and whoever rejects you rejects me. Whoever rejects me rejects him who sent me."

Matthew 15:24 But he answered, "I wasn't sent to anyone but the lost sheep of the house of Israel."

This is the context of the apostle Paul's words here there is nothing to suggest we take them to the extreme concluding God must save all Israel against its own will, nation wide, or individually; denying the very existence of God who created each of us with a free will to choose right and wrong.

Matthew 7:7 "Ask, and it will be given you. Seek, and you will find. Knock, and it will be opened for you.

Acts 15:17 That the rest of men may seek after the Lord; All the Gentiles who are called by my name, Says the Lord, who does all these things.{Amos 9:11-12}

Acts 17:27 that they should seek the Lord, if perhaps they might reach out for him and find him, though he is not far from each one of us.

The choice Adam and Eve made has cost YHWH untold slander and hatred from the human race where throughout the history of mankind only a very few have come to him out of love. Most reject God for his gift of free will blaming him for all the suffering upon earth. Few get past this life, fewer yet search for God, digging deep into his personality that creation itself testifies each day about
most have chosen works of law, seeking rewards from God as the world in darkness lives and breathes by.

1 John 4:19 We love Him, because he first loved us.
1 John 4:8 He who doesn't love doesn't know God, for God is love.

Jehovah God is a God of love, whom gives freely the gift of life, he has created families and a beautiful earth for mankind's happiness, but unlike the flesh that earns love by what they can do and produce, God does not boast, he does not seek credit, but rather seeks us to love him. Religion has created a system to fit within the system of this world so it can function as does the world and all that is in it. Religion has caused mankind to impute evil into God's motives by works of law. The idea of gifts from love insults all that the world is about, it insult and offended the Jewish faith.

Romans 1:20 For the invisible things of him since the creation of the world are clearly seen, being perceived through the things that are made, even his everlasting power and divinity; that they may be without excuse.

Subsequently, God sought those looking for him without being his chosen people, he sought the one thing religion forgets, faith in God, not mankind trying to act like Christ on earth, labeling evil good. But true repentance, knowing that God is love, there is only one good, God, he alone is the source of spiritual life. God has given us that good in his resurrected Son Christ Jesus, he has not given us that good in men, or woman they will always prove to be a disappointment, having good and evil fruit on the same tree of the religions they build.

James.1:16 Don't be deceived, my beloved brothers.
1:17 Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom can be no variation, nor turning shadow. 1:18 Of his own will he brought us forth by the word of truth, that we should be a kind of first fruits of his creatures.

James 3:10 Out of the same mouth comes forth blessing and cursing. My brothers, these things ought not to be so.
3:11 Does a spring send out from the same opening fresh and bitter water? 3:12 Can a fig tree, my brothers, yield olives, or a vine figs? Thus no spring yields both salt water and fresh water.
3:13 Who is wise and understanding among you? Let him show by his good conduct that his deeds are done in gentleness of wisdom.
3:14 But if you have bitter jealousy and selfish ambition in your heart, don't boast and don't lie against the truth.
3:15 This wisdom is not that which comes down from above, but is earthly, sensual, and demonic. 3:16 For where jealousy and selfish ambition are, there is confusion and every evil deed.
