Zech 12:10-And I will pour out on the house of David and the inhabitants of Jerusalem a spirit of grace and supplication. They will look on me, the one they have pierced, and they will mourn for him as one mourns for an only child, and grieve bitterly for him as one grieves for a firstborn son. Jews who've come to Christ have taken about experiencing a prolonged weeping. I believe this scripture is unfulfilled and points to a large scale turning.
Rom 11:25-26- I do not want you to be ignorant of this mystery, brothers and sisters, so that you may not be conceited: Israel has experienced a hardening in part until the full number of the Gentiles has come in and in this way all Israel will be saved. As it is written: “The deliverer will come from Zion; he will turn godlessness away from Jacob. Rom 1:16- For I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God that brings salvation to everyone who believes: first to the Jew, then to the Gentile. Rom 2:9-10- There will be trouble and distress for every human being who does evil: first for the Jew, then for the Gentile; but glory, honor and peace for everyone who does good: first for the Jew, then for the Gentile. Greek word for first is proton. "Proton’ can also mean first as in particularly, especially, or in prominence… We would argue that it is this sense in which Paul writes about the Jew being first. The gospel is particularly and especially for the Jew – and also for the Gentile."* Rom 11 has much to say on this, among other things, warning us to "not be haughty, but fear." V 28-29 say: As far as the gospel is concerned, they are enemies for your sake; but as far as election is concerned, they are loved on account of the forefathers, for God’s gifts and his call are irrevocable.
There will be Jews who are a part of this synagogue of Satan. There will be gentiles who are equally evil. They are not more prone to sin, blindness, deafness, or evil than we are. Let's stay humble before the Lord remembering our own weakness and fallibility and pray for the peace of Jerusalem. *For your consideration: https://www.oneforisrael.org/bible-based-teaching-from-israel/to-the-jew-first-what-does-it-mean-and-why-does-it-matter/
