Israel:not by Law or by history or tradition, but God alone.
Galatians 6:
12
As many as desire to make a good showing in the flesh, these would compel you to be circumcised, only that they may not suffer persecution for the cross of Christ.
13
For not even those who are circumcised keep the law, but they desire to have you circumcised that they may boast in your flesh.
14
But God forbid that I should boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ,
by whom the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world.
15
For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision avails anything,
but a new creation.
16
And as many as walk according to this rule, peace and mercy be upon them,
and upon the Israel of God.
The Israel of God is a New Creation.
John 3:6.
That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.
Hebrews 7:16. Who is made, not after the law of a carnal commandment,
but after the power of an endless life.

1 Corinthians 10:18. Behold Israel after the flesh: are not
they which eat of the sacrifices
partakers of the altar?

Luke 6:
3
But Jesus answering them said, Have you not even read this,
what David did when he was hungry,
he and those who were with him:
4 how he went into the house of God, took and ate the showbread,
and also gave some to those with him, which is not lawful for any
but the priests to eat?


In spiritual Israel: All eat spiritual bread.

1 Corinthians 10:17. For we being many are one bread, and one body:
for we are all partakers of that one bread.

John 6:50. This is the bread which comes down from heaven,
that one may eat of it and not die.

Galatians 3:
15
Brethren, I speak in the manner of men: Though it is only a man’s covenant,
yet if it is confirmed, no one annuls or adds to it.
16 Now to Abraham and his Seed were the promises made. He does not say, “And to seeds,”
as of many, but as of one, “And to your Seed,” which is Christ.
17
And this I say, that the law, which was four hundred and thirty years later,
cannot annul the covenant that was confirmed before by God in Christ,
that it should make the promise of no effect.
18 For if the inheritance is of the law, it is no longer of promise;
but God gave it to Abraham by promise.

Romans 9:
6
But it is not that the word of God has taken no effect. For they are not all Israel who are of Israel,
7
nor are they all children because they are the seed of Abraham; but, “In Isaac your seed shall be called.”
8 That is, those who are the children of the flesh, these are not the children of YHWH;
but the children of the promise are counted as the seed.

Romans 11
:
21 For if God did not spare the natural branches, He may not spare you either.
22
Therefore consider the goodness and severity of God: on those who fell, severity; but toward you, goodness, if you continue in His goodness. Otherwise you also will be cut off.
23 And they also, if they do not continue in unbelief, will be grafted in,
for God is able to graft them in again.
24
For if you were cut out of the olive tree which is wild by nature, and were grafted
contrary to nature into a cultivated olive tree, how much more will these,
who are natural branches, be grafted into their own olive tree?

18 Now all things are of God, who has reconciled us to Himself through Jesus Christ, and has given us the ministry of reconciliation,
19 that is, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not imputing their trespasses to them, and has committed to us the word of reconciliation.
Romans 5:10. For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son,
much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life.

Luke 24:49. Behold, I send the Promise of My Father upon you; but tarry in
the city of Jerusalem until you are endued with power from on high.

Acts 2:
32
This Jesus God has raised up, of which we are all witnesses.
33 Therefore being exalted to the right hand of God, and having received from the Father
the promise of the Holy Spirit, He poured out this which you now see and hear.
34 For David did not ascend into the heavens, but he says himself:
The Lord said to my Lord, Sit at My right hand,
35 Till I make Your enemies Your footstool.
36 Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly that God has made this Jesus,
whom you crucified, both Lord and Christ.
37 Now when they heard this, they were cut to the heart, and said to Peter
and the rest of the apostles, Men and brethren, what shall we do?
38 Then Peter said to them, Repent, and let every one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
39 For the promise is to you and to your children, and to all who are afar off,
as many as the Lord our God will call.

2 Corinthians 5:
16
Therefore, from now on, we regard no one according to the flesh.
Even though we have known Christ according to the flesh, yet now we know Him thus no longer.
17 Therefore, if anyone in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.
18 Now all things are of God, who has reconciled us to Himself through Jesus Christ, and has given us the ministry of reconciliation,
19 that is, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not imputing their trespasses to them, and has committed to us the word of reconciliation
