Even when Paul states explicitly in Romans 11, you still won't accept it? I have no problems reading it literally
As regards the gospel, they are enemies for your sake. But as regards election, they are beloved for the sake of their forefathers.

Isn't that first statement clear wrt to the entire Romans 11 chapter concerning 3 parties, God, Israel and Gentiles? God became enemies with Israel, so that us former Gentiles can receive the gospel.
As Paul further explained in vs 12
12 Now if the fall of them be the riches of the world, and the diminishing of them the riches of the Gentiles; how much more their fulness?
So if Israel's fall has become our riches thru the gospel of grace, the moment God is reconciled with Israel after the Tribulation, we can expect all sickness and disease to finally cease + more.

The Jews do not have anything to bring to the world anymore. They know less about God that the Christians. Their contribution is over. Again, their fall was not necessary but since they chose that route, God can use it. But it was never necessary. Salvation of some is not built on the rebellion of others.
