The conclusion to draw from these clear writings is that there is no one who currently obeys the Covenant that is a "Gentile" - they may have been "formerly Gentiles in the flesh", but are now members (or better, "fellow citizens") of Israel. This is not an allegorized, "spiritual" Israel as many have supposed through other misunderstandings, such as the doctrine of "Replacement Theology". While the term "Israel" can be used to apply to a geographic area, in Scripture this term refers to those who have joined themselves to Yahuah through His Covenant, also known as His Torah (the Ten Declarations/Words). Through the centuries, there has been a "Gentilization" of the faith, a falling-away (apostasy) from Torah observance, and the adoption of formerly Pagan terms and observances. The Sabbath and moed'im (appointed times) were sabotaged/replaced, the Name was destroyed/ruined in favor of non-specific, generic references, and over time the persecuted became the persecutors.

The Son of God never spoke Greek nor the 11 of the 12 disciples. Jesus' didn't give lectures at a Greek university. Nope, He taught simple people like farmers and shepherds who often couldn't even read or write in their own language. Modern linguistics (thanks to the input of cognisant Messianic Jewish and gentile scholars) shows that the text themselves don't lend to an "original Greek" translation. A very good book you want to get with dozens of examples is, The Semitic Origin of the New Testament, by James Trimm. This can be ordered via www.nazarene.net. Also recommended is the Hebrew/Aramaic Jesus often quoted OT verses; or did He quote translated verses? (many quoted verses are translated wrong) Not only Paul, Peter, John were Hebrew thinkers the whole NT has a Hebrew mindset. A mindset that (partly) got lost in translation. For example what does "Matthew 5:17 Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil." really mean? When Jewish priests had a religious discussion they didn't say "You are wrong and I'm right"; they said "You destroy the law and I'm fulfilling it."
