And here is where the rubber meets the road. They lost use of the land, but not the deed. God is going to restore them to the land where they will not be uprooted again. Here is my point. It seems that people have no idea how covenants were made. I've asked several here and no one has given an answer yet. The Abraham Covenant was unconditional and everlasting.
Well, but you know who came after Abraham.
At latest with Jacob it is clear that the land which we call today Israel is given to the nation of Israel, means Jacobs descendes!
And I cant find in the OT or NT that God has changed his promise.

I should also have mentioned in my prior post, that God made two promises, one to Abram - a temporal promise
to his physical seed regarding the earthly land of Israel- and a promise to Abraham unto his spiritual seed but only through Isaac regarding the spiritual, heavenly, land of the Israel of God. The one through Isaac and his spiritual seed is everlasting. Since only through Isaac, not including all of Abraham's sons, it meant that God did not intend the spiritual promise to be to Abraham for all of Abraham's physical sons - but only to his one spiritual son Isaac (even though he was also a physical son). It was through Isaac that Jesus was descended.

[Rom 9:7-8 KJV]
7 Neither, because they are the seed of Abraham, [are they] all children: but, In Isaac shall thy seed be called.
8 That is, They which are the children of the flesh, these [are] not the children of God: but the children of the promise are counted for the seed.

It has been replaced by the Kingdom of Christ.
It is more accurate to say that the promises given to Abraham are INCLUDED in Christ. There is no replacement. All who receive Christ are Abraham’s seed because they are included in the One Seed who is Christ.

Did Jesus say this to anyone?

Think about what you are saying to me.
You are saying to me that all that enter into the Kingdom of Christ
is the seed of Abraham.

What happened to being born of God?
In Christ, you are.

Galatians 3:26-29 26For you are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus. 27For as many of you as were baptized into Christ have put on Christ. 28There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus. 29And if you are Christ’s, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.
