Romans 9:1-13
They are Israelites, and to them belong the adoption, the glory, the covenants, the giving of the law, the worship, and the promises. To them belong the patriarchs, and from their race, according to the flesh, is the Christ, who is God over all, blessed forever. Amen. (vv. 4-5) To the longer listing Paul wrote, at the very end he added that Jesus was also Jewish. Very nice touch. He could easily have added Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; Sarah, Rebekah, Leah, and Rachel; Moses and Joshua; David; Isaiah; Jeremiah; Daniel; and a host of others, including himself! What a heritage.
Slava Bohu!
