I. UNILATERAL PROMISE

A. Genesis 12 God promised to bless Abraham and his descendants, give the Land of  Canaanite idolaters to them, and thru them bless the world. 12:1 Now the LORD had said to Abram:”Get out of your country, from your family and from your father’s house,  to a land that I will show you. 2 I will make you a great nation; I will bless you and make your name great;  and you shall be a blessing. 3  I will bless those who bless you, and I will curse him who curses you;  and in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.”

Gen 16:12 Now when the sun was going down, a deep sleep fell upon Abram; and behold, horror and great darkness fell upon him. 13  Then He said to Abram: Know certainly that your descendants will be strangers in a land that is not theirs, and will serve them, and they will afflict them four hundred years. 14 And also the nation whom they serve I will judge; afterward they shall come out with great possessions. 15  Now as for you, you shall go to your fathers in peace; you shall be buried at a good old age.  16  But in the fourth generation they shall return here, for the iniquity of the Amorites is not yet complete.”

17 And it came to pass, when the sun went down and it was dark, that behold, there appeared a smoking oven and a burning torch that passed between those pieces.

18  On the same day the LORD made a (unilateral) covenant with Abram, saying: To your descendants I have given this land, from the river of Egypt to the great river, the River Euphrates—19  the Kenites, the Kenezzites, the Kadmonites, 20  the Hittites, the Perizzites, the Rephaim, 21  the Amorites, the Canaanites, the Girgashites, and the Jebusites.”

B. BI-LATERAL COVENANT

Dt 29:9 Therefore keep the words of this covenant, and DO them, that you may prosper in all that you do. 12  that you may enter into covenant with the LORD your God, and into His oath, which the LORD your God makes with you today,

14 I make this covenant and this oath, not with you alone, 15 but with him who stands here with us today before the LORD our God, as well as with him who is not here with us today

   16  (for you know that we dwelt in the land of Egypt and that we came through the nations which you passed by,

  17  and you saw their abominations and their idols which were among them—wood and stone and silver and gold);

18  so that there may not be among you man or woman or family or tribe, whose heart turns away today from the LORD our God, to go and serve the gods of these nations, and that there may not be among you a root bearing bitterness or wormwood; 19  and so it may not happen, when he hears the words of this curse, that he blesses himself in his heart, saying, ‘I shall have peace, even tho I follow the dictates of my heart’ —as though the drunkard could be included with the sober.

20  The LORD would not spare him; for then the anger of the LORD and His jealousy would burn against that man, and every curse that is written in this book would settle on him, and the LORD would blot out his name from under heaven.

C. CONSEQUENCES FOR UNFAITHFULNESS

Dt 29:21  And the LORD would separate him from all the tribes of Israel for adversity, acc to all the curses of the covenant that are written in this Book of the Law, 22  so that the coming generation of your children who rise up after you, and the foreigner who comes from a far land, would say, when they see the plagues of that land and the sicknesses which the LORD has laid on it: 23 The whole land is brimstone, salt, and burning; it is not sown, nor does it bear, nor does any grass grow there, like the overthrow of Sodom and Gomorrah, Admah, and Zeboim, which the LORD overthrew in His anger and His wrath.’

24  All nations would say, ‘Why has the LORD done so to this land? What does the heat of this great anger mean? 25 Then people would say: ‘Cz they have forsaken the covenant of the LORD God of their fathers, which He made with them when He brought them out of the land of Egypt; 26 for they went and served other gods and worshiped them, gods that they did not know and that He had not given to them.

27  ‘Then the anger of the LORD was aroused against this land, to bring on it every curse that is written in this book. 28  And the LORD uprooted them from their land in anger, in wrath, and in great indignation, and cast them into another land, as it is this day.’

D. COMPASSION ON THE REPENTANT OBEDIENT

Rm 11:1  I say then, has God cast away His people? Certainly not! For I also am an Israelite, of the seed of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin. I say then, have they stumbled that they should fall? Certainly not! But thru their fall, to provoke them to jealousy, salvation has come to the Gentiles.

12  Now if their fall is riches for the world, and their failure riches for the Gentiles, how much more their fullness! 13  For I speak to you Gentiles; inasmuch as I am an apostle to the Gentiles, I magnify my ministry, 14  if by any means I may provoke to jealousy those who are my flesh and save some of them. 15  For if their being cast away is the reconciling of the world, what will their acceptance be but life from the dead?

16  For if the firstfruit is holy, the lump is also holy; and if the root is holy, so are the branches.

17  And if some of the branches were broken off, and you, being a wild olive tree, were grafted in among them, and with them became a partaker of the root and fatness of the olive tree,

18  do not boast against the branches. But if you do boast, remember that you do not support the root, but the root supports you.

Rm 11:19  You will say then, “Branches were broken off that I might be grafted in.”

20  Well said. Cz of unbelief they were broken off, and you stand by faith.

                             Do not be haughty, but fear.

21  For if God did not spare the natural branches, He may not spare you either.

22  Therefore consider the goodness and severity of God: on those who fell, severity; but toward you, goodness, if you continue in His goodness. Otherwise you also will be cut off.

23  And they also, if they do not continue in unbelief, will be grafted in,

                             for God is able to graft them in again.

24  For if you were cut out of the olive tree which is wild by nature, and were grafted contrary to nature into a cultivated olive tree, how much more will these, who are natural branches, be grafted into their own olive tree?

E. NEW COVENANT

Rm 11:25  For I do not desire, brethren, that you should be ignorant of this mystery, lest you should be wise in your own opinion, that blindness in part has happened to Israel until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in.26  And so all Israel will be saved, as it is written: “The Deliverer will come out of Zion, And He will turn away ungodliness from Jacob;

27  For this is My covenant with them, When I take away their sins.”

Jer 31:31 Behold, the days are coming, says the LORD, when I will make a NEW COVENANT with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah—32 not acc to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt, My covenant which they broke, tho I was a husband to them, says the LORD.

33  “But this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, says the LORD: I will put My LAW in their minds, and write it on their hearts; and I will be their God, and they shall be My people. 34  No more shall every man teach his neighbor, and every man his brother, saying, ‘Know the LORD,’ for they all shall know Me, f

                                      from the least of them to the greatest of them, says the LORD.

          For I will forgive their iniquity, and their sin I will remember no more.”

Rm 11:28  Concerning the gospel they are enemies for your sake, but concerning the election they are beloved for the sake of the fathers.

29  FOR THE GIFTS AND THE CALLING OF GOD ARE IRREVOCABLE.

30  For as you were once disobedient to God,

                             yet have now obtained mercy thru their disobedience,

31  even so these also have now been disobedient,

                             that thru the mercy shown you they also may obtain mercy.

32  For God has committed them all to disobedience, that He might have mercy on all.

F. NOT ALL ISRAEL IS ISRAEL

Rm 9:1  I tell the truth in Christ, I am not lying, my conscience also bearing me witness in the Holy Spirit, 2  that I have great sorrow and continual grief in my heart. 3  For I could wish that I myself were accursed from Christ for my brethren, my countrymen acc to the flesh,

4  who are Israelites, to whom pertain the adoption, the glory, the covenants, the giving of the law, the service of God, and the promises:

5  of whom are the fathers and from whom, acc to the flesh, Christ came,

                                                                   Wuho is over all, the eternally blessed God. Amen.

6  But it is not that the word of God has taken no effect.

          For they are not all Israel who are of Israel, 7  nor are they all children because they are the seed of Abraham; but, “In Isaac your seed shall be called.” 8  That is, those who are the children of the flesh, these are not the children of God; but the children of the promise are counted as the seed. 9  For this is the word of promise: “At this time I will come and Sarah shall have a son.”

13  As it is written, “Jacob I have loved, but Esau I have hated.”

25 As He says also in Hosea: “I will call them My people, who were not My people, And her beloved, who was not beloved.” 26  “And it shall come to pass in the place where it was said to them, ‘You are not My people,’ There they shall be called sons of the living God.”

27  Isaiah also cries out concerning Israel: “Though the number of the children of Israel be as the sand of the sea, The remnant will be saved.

31  but Israel, pursuing the law of righteousness, has not attained to the law of righteousness.

32  Why? Because they did not seek it by faith, but as it were, by the works of the law. For they stumbled at that stumbling Stone. 33  As it is written: “Behold, I lay in Zion a stumbling Stone and rock of offense, And whoever believes on Him will not be put to shame.”

1  Brethren, my heart’s desire and prayer to God for Israel is that they may be saved.

2  For I bear them witness that they have a zeal for God, but not acc to knowledge.

3  For they being ignorant of God’s righteousness, and seeking to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted to the righteousness of God.

Heb 9:22  And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission/forgiveness.

wikipedia.org/wiki/Jewish_land_purchase_in_Palestine

In the 1930s, most of the land was bought from landowners. Of the land that the Jews bought, 52.6% were bought from non-Palestinian landowners, 24.6% from Palestinian landowners, 13.4% from government, churches, and foreign companies, and only 9.4% from fellaheen (farmers)

British Govt 1937 Peel Commission The shortage of land is due less to purchase by Jews than to the increase in the Arab population. The Arab claims that the Jews have obtained too large a proportion of good land cannot be maintained. Much of the land now carrying orange groves was sand dunes or swamps and uncultivated when it was bought.

Gaza was occupied by Israel in the 1967 Six-Day War after the defeat of a coalition of Arab armies. Under Israeli occupation, existing structures of administration in Gaza would be maintained and administrative tasks would continue to be executed by Palestinian civil servants.

Director of Development Lewis French established a register of landless Arabs in 1931.[19] Out of 3,271 applicants, only 664 were admitted and the remainder rejected.[19] Porath suggests that the number of displaced Arabs may have been considerably larger, since Frenchs definition of landless Arab excluded those who had sold their own land, those who owned land elsewhere, those who had since obtained tenancy of other land even if they were unable to cultivate it due to poverty or debt, and displaced persons who were not cultivators but had occupations such as ploughman or laborer.[19]

1920-1947 Jerusalem Post. Concept of palestinian state is employed for sole purpose of destroying Israel –The Palestine Liberation movement is not a revolution. D. Levine 3/5/23

The League of Nations divided the spoils of World War I after defeating the 620-year-old Ottoman Empire, thereby creating the Mandate of Palestine. Why did the Arab leadership violently object to the League of Nations’ Mandate of Palestine? Because the result would be a Jewish state, replacing the Islamic concept of dhimmis” (second-class citizenship for all non-Muslims, with severe religious social, and economic restrictions), historically enforced upon Jews.
