Edit: Ah! I see you are saying "modern day" Jews. Yeah, ah veil is on them. Through the old testament Jews the lineage of David had to be preserved to bring forth Yeshua. However, that doesn't mean God does not want what is His yearns for them. He will stop Gog and Magog in the end, saving for Himself those Jews that repented and believed in Him. There are Jews that believe in Christ, though not that many. And the Jews and Gentiles that walked with Him and turned to Him will sit at one Table all being glorified by the power of God.
Just trying to be precise. The Jews or as the Greek says, "Judeans" (as in country) in Judea at the time of Christ were Edomites, Israelites and lots of other nationalities. When the term Jew is used today it is about 90% Khazar or Ashkenazi, about 9% Edomites. Either way none of those descend from Jacob. Technically the word Jew is not in the Hebrew or Greek texts. In the old it is Judah, the House of Judah. In the new it is Judea (as in country) or Judah. Judah is just one of the tribes and never stands for any other than Judah, Benjamin and those of Levi who were part of the House of Judah. When you see the word Gentiles, the Hebrew and Greek just say Nation. The who is determined by context. Many times such as Romans 2:14-15, 9:24-26 and Ephesians 2:11 the who are the Ten Northern tribes of Israel. It is too bad this is ignored by most churches these days.
Yes, agree. Also context matters, it's a warning to the nation of Israel, which some say it's a reflection of our walk with God.
The modern day Jews are not, and have never been, God's Israel people as is proven by scripture, history and even Jewish writings.
??? Please elaborate.

That is precise. Thank you
