He has helped His servant Israel,
mindful of His mercy,

I will bless those who bless you,
I will curse those who treat you with contempt,
and all the peoples on earth
will be blessed through you.

And all the nations of the earth will be blessed by your offspring because you have obeyed My command.”

I will make your offspring as numerous as the stars of the sky, I will give your offspring all these lands, and all the nations of the earth will be blessed by your offspring,

Your offspring will be like the dust of the earth, and you will spread out toward the west, the east, the north, and the south. All the peoples on earth will be blessed through you and your offspring.

He has remembered His love
and faithfulness to the house of Israel;
all the ends of the earth
have seen our God’s victory.

You are the sons of the prophets and of the covenant that God made with your ancestors, saying to Abraham, And all the families of the earth will be blessed through your offspring.

Regarding the gospel, they are enemies for your advantage, but regarding election, they are loved because of the patriarchs,

For when God made a promise to Abraham, since He had no one greater to swear by, He swore by Himself:

And

“As for Me, My covenant is with you: you will become the father of many nations.

then I will remember My covenant with Jacob. I will also remember My covenant with Isaac and My covenant with Abraham, and I will remember the land.

He remembers His covenant forever,
the promise He ordained
for a thousand generations—

remembered His covenant with them,
and relented according to the riches
of His faithful love.

He has provided food for those who fear Him;
He remembers His covenant forever.

“Then I passed by you and saw you, and you were indeed at the age for love. So I spread the edge of My garment over you and covered your nakedness. I pledged Myself to you, entered into a covenant with you, and you became Mine.” This is the declaration of the Lord God.

Brothers, I’m using a human illustration. No one sets aside or makes additions to even a human covenant that has been ratified.
