Rom 11:27 is Isaiah 59:23. The passages was first said about Jews in the future, YES, long before the coming of Christ. Paul is was simple quoting a well-known OT passage.
Nope...Paul was explaining to the Gentiles how God turned to the Gentiles in the Age of Grace...Paul was pointing out how that prophecy in Isaiah was currently being fulfilled; that Israel indeed has been blinded and God will deal with them later...

How can you say "nope" without disputing anything I wrote? The fact remains, Paul quoted a well-known passage predicting a "Deliverer" out of "Sion" more than 700 years before the coming of Christ. Such an event has already occurred. Has it not?

Again, nope...

Sure, the deliverer showed up...But NOT as the Deliverer...That won't happen until He shows up again as a roaring Lion...And then, these scriptures will come into play...

Isa 9:6 For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.
Isa 9:7 Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even for ever. The zeal of the LORD of hosts will perform this.
