Romans 12:19 - "Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord" - The Lord took vengeance on apostate Israel in 70 AD when the Temple & city of Jerusalem were destroyed by Roman General Titus & his army.
Romans 3:4 - you pulled a scripture out of context. Keep reading in Romans 3:9-10 - "What then? are we better than they? No, in no wise: for we have before proved both Jews and Gentiles, that they are all under sin; As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:". What's the point Paul was trying to make? Isn't it that no one is righteous? Neither Jew nor Gentile?
Gen 12:3 - God here is speaking of Abraham. Was this a reference to the nation state of Israel? If so the United States has been "blessing" the nation state of Israel for about 75 years. Or we as a nation "blessed"? I certainly don't think so.
How is Gen 12:3 ultimately fulfilled? Read Galatians 3:27-29 - "For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus. And if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise."
Yes God did give them "that land". Joshua 21:43 "And the LORD gave unto Israel all the land which he sware to give unto their fathers; and they possessed it, and dwelt therein." So that land promise was fulfilled along time ago. Israel was under a covenant relationship with God which they failed to live up to.

Excellent. I learned some new things
