And no indication in the verse you quoted that such would ever occur. So yes, not yet, and no, not necessarily ever

You seem painfully ignorant of the WORD of G-d.

Yah'shua's Rabbi : Paul goes into great detail in Romans 11.
he begins in verse one discussing the question.

NAsbU Romans 11:1 I say then,
God has not rejected His people,
has He? May it never be!
For I too am an Israelite,
a descendant of Abraham,
of the tribe of Benjamin.
You might want to ask yourself the question:
NAsbU Romans 11:34
For WHO HAS KNOWN THE MIND OF THE LORD,
OR WHO BECAME HIS COUNSELOR?
Or this famous verse:
NAU Romans 11:25 For I do not want you, brethren,
to be uninformed of this mystery--
so that you will not be wise in your own estimation--
that a partial hardening has happened to Israel
until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in;
Be Blessed than they have stumbled,
as it is what has allowed the Gentiles
to be grafted into the vine.
shalom b'SHEM Yah'shua HaMashiach

If you feel pain it's not from any ignorance on my part.

However...that part of Israel saved was but a remnant (11:5) as Isaiah had foretold.(9:27).

Whether Jew or Gentile faith in Christ was required before being considered a branch on that tree, Israel. (11:23)

Those of the nations grafted in and that faithful remnant together would form “Israel” that was to be saved. (11:25,26)

But just who is “Israel”? (9:6,7) being born into the fleshly nation of Israel did not make one an “Israelite” in God's sight but being a children of the promise, whether Jew or Greek, made one an “Israelite” by faith and God's choosing. (9:14,15) (10:4)(10:4)

“Israel” would be made up of a remnant of Jews who put faith in Christ and Gentiles sufficient to fill up the number of His nation of kings and priests. (10:11,12)
