Israel was chosen. No question about it. But chosen for what? FOR WHAT? ************* Israel, so named from the grandson of Abraham, was chosen for a fourfold mission: (1) To witness to the unity of God in the midst of universal idolatry, Deuteronomy 6:4 ; Isaiah 43:10,12,. (2) to illustrate to the nations the blessedness of serving the true God, Deuteronomy 33:26-29 ; 1 Chronicles 17:20,21 ; Psalms 144:15. (3) to receive, preserve, and transmit the Scripture, Deuteronomy 4:5-8; Romans 3:1,2. (4) to produce, as to His humanity, the Messiah, Genesis 3:15; 12:3; 22:18; 28:10-14; 49:10 ; 2 Samuel 7:12-16 ; Isaiah 7:14; 9:6; Matthew 1:1; Romans 1:3. According to the prophets, Israel, regathered from all nations, restored to her own land and converted, is yet to have her greatest earthly exaltation and glory. Zechariah 12:8. (Scofield, C.I.
