* To whom did God give the law? - To the children of Israel
'Who are Israelites; to whom pertaineth -
.. the adoption,
…. and the glory,
…… and the covenants,
…….. and the giving of the law,
………. and the service of God,
………… and the promises;
Whose are the fathers,
and of whom as concerning the flesh Christ came,
Who is over all, God blessed for ever.
Amen.'
(Romans 9:4-5)
* This was the Gentile’s state, outside of Christ:-
‘Wherefore remember,
.. that ye being in time past Gentiles in the flesh,
…. who are called Uncircumcision
…… by that which is called the Circumcision
…….. in the flesh made by hands;
That at that time ye were without Christ,
.. being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel,
…. and strangers from the covenants of promise,
…… having no hope, and without God in the world:’
(Ephesians 2:11-12)
