And more specifically the children and grandchild of Jacob 😀
Indeed the covenant made specifically with
the children of Israel
“See, I have set before thee this day life and good, and death and evil; in that I command thee this day to
love the LORD thy God, to walk in his ways, and to keep his commandments and his statutes and his judgments, that thou mayest live and multiply: and the LORD thy God shall bless thee in the land whither thou goest to possess it.
But if thine heart turn away, so that thou wilt not hear, but shalt be drawn away, and worship other gods, and serve them; I denounce unto you this day, that ye shall surely perish, and that ye shall not prolong your days upon the land, whither thou passest over Jordan to go to possess it.”
Deuteronomy 30:15-18 KJV
“Now therefore,
if ye will obey my voice indeed, and keep my covenant, then ye shall be a peculiar treasure unto me above all people: for all the earth is mine:
and ye shall be unto me a kingdom of priests, and an holy nation. These are the words which thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel.”
Exodus 19:5-6
Then there’s the children of Abraham
“As for me, behold,
my covenant is with thee, and thou shalt be a father of many nations. Neither shall thy name any more be called Abram, but thy name shall be
Abraham; for a
father of many nations have I made thee.”
Genesis 17:4-5 KJV
“Now
to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one,
And to thy seed, which is Christ.
…For
as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. ( aBrahmans seed of promise not of Abraham’s flesh but of his faith ) There is
neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for
ye are all one in Christ Jesus. And if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise.”
Galatians 3:16, 27-29
the hiers are the children and the children can only be in the Son. Which makes them children. I believe anyone israelite or gentile can be saved and born again into Abraham’s promised family four hundred years prior to Israel’s covenant regarding this earthly land
