1 answer

In Romans 9:4-5, the apostle Paul reflects on the blessings and privileges that were given to the Israelites by God. He lists some of these blessings, including adoption as God's children, the divine glory, the covenants, the giving of the law, the temple worship, and the promises. Paul emphasizes that these blessings were given to the Israelites, who are descendants of the patriarchs, and that Jesus Himself came from their ancestry, blessed forever.
