Prove it.It seems to me that you do not understand that the 1948 return of some of Abraham's descendants was in fulfilment of God's prophetic word to Abraham in Genesis 15 : 16. In this prophecy, God indicates that He will not be involved in their return. Interestingly, the return, from my understanding of history, occurred close to 4,000 years after the Birth of Isaac.
Now Israel was set aside as you have put it because of the passage found in Exodus 20 : 4 - 6 where God said that the iniquities of the fathers, i.e. idolatrous worship during the first 2 ages of their existence as a nation would be visited upon their children and their children's children in the third and the fourth (age).
Also in Ezekiel 34: 11 - 16 God informs us that He will seek out His lost Sheep and that He will gather them to plant them in good fertile soil so that they can feed on the Mountains of Israel, the rock that will be coming down out of heaven when God establishes His ever lasting Kingdom here on the earth during the time of these kings spoken about in the statue prophecy concerning the Land of Babylon. When Israel seeks Christ's terms of peace as Christ told them in Luke 14, then they will be saved when they accept them, at the time of the judgement of the heathen kings of the earth on the earth which occurs at the same time as the judgement of the wicked fallen heavenly hosts in heaven (Isa 24:21-22) as Paul tells us in Romans 11 : 25-26 after the fulfilment of the 2,300 years of the trampling of the sanctuary of God by them, that all of Israel will be saved.
Christ also told us when Israel would be save in the Lesson of the Fig Tree budding that heralds the time of the beginning of the summer season of harvest.
The Nation of Israel will have there part to play in this harvest after God renews the Kingdom of Priests and a Holy Nation and His possession among the nations Covenant in our near future with them as set out in Jeremiah 31: 31 ff.
Now Jesus told the parable of the owner of the harvest having two sons who he asked to go out into the vineyard to work, the first son initially rejected his father's request, but relented later and did so. The second son told his father that he would do so but did not. (Matthew 21 : 28 - 32)
I wonder if this parable was Christ's reflection on Israel and the Gentile Church.
All of the above is food for thought.

The Israel of God will ALWAYS have to keep the law in order for them to be God's people. It's impossible for them to now keep the law. When God really gathers them, here's what will really happen. The new spirit is the New Covenant, which will given, only to Israel, when God finally does gather them and put them into the land. It's sole purpose will be to put the law in Israel's inward parts, Jer 31-33, so they will be able to keep the law and love doing it. If anyone truly believes that those Talmudic, unbelieving, fake usurpers in Israel today, are anything like the prophecies of Jer 31:31-34 and Eze 36:24-28, I have this bridge for sale.
Exe 36:24-28
24 For I will take you from among the heathen, and gather you out of all countries, and will bring you into your own land.
25 Then will I sprinkle clean water upon you, and ye shall be clean: from all your filthiness, and from all your idols, will I cleanse you.
26 A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh.
27 And I will put my spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes, and ye shall keep my judgments, and do them.
28 And ye shall dwell in the land that I gave to your fathers; and ye shall be my people, and I will be your God.
Since there is no nation of Israel today, and since all prophecy involves Israel, it is impossible that any prophecy has been fulfilled since 70AD.
Israel Today - The Grand Hoax
"The Israeli government, today, is made up of unbelieving Jews administering a socialistic government which depends mostly upon the U.S.A. for its sustenance. When the true descendants of the three Patriarchs occupy the Land, they will depend on the LORD their God, and in no-one else will they trust. They will be totally dependent upon the Lord Jesus Christ. And, He will meet every need of His re-gathered people."
