“For the gifts and calling of God are without repentance.”
for God's gifts and his calling are irrevocable. — The principle is ultimate: charismata (gifts) and klēsis (calling) of God are anetakaktos (not subject to regret, unchangeable, irrevocable). This means the covenant gifts given to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob cannot be withdrawn despite Israel's current unbelief. God's covenantal commitment transcends Israel's response.
