All Spiritual Things-Enduring Covenant?

The relationship between Christianity and Israel is deeply rooted in the Bible's sacred texts, particularly the Old and New Testaments. The Old Testament promises God's covenant with Abraham, establishing a foundational relationship between God, Abraham, and his descendants, the Israelites. This covenant is unconditional, eternal, and underlines the unique and enduring divine election of the Jewish people. Despite periods of disobedience and exile, prophets foretold a future restoration of Israel to its land. The New Testament introduces a new covenant through Jesus Christ, but does not nullify the original promises made to Israel. The Apostle Paul, a Jew, addresses this in his letter to the Romans, demonstrating that God's foundational promises to the Jewish people remain intact even with the advent of Christianity. Jesus's deep immersion in Jewish tradition and Hebrew scriptures connects to the future fulfillment of God's promises to Israel, including a renewed and spiritualized Davidic kingdom. Many Christians feel a biblical mandate to support Israel, including praying for the return of the Jewish people to their ancestral homeland.
