CCC 674 tells us that the Second Coming won't happen untilThe glorious Messiah's coming is suspended at every moment of history until his recognition by "all Israel"...
The teaching is reinforced in Romans 11. Here Paul explains why the Jews rejected Jesus. If they hadn't, the apostles wouldn't have evangelized the Gentiles. But the Jews will come to accept Jesus as the Messiah. That's what the catechism says in 674. And when that happens, expect the parousia.
