I'm really enjoying this thread!
Adding one cent... mark lacour writes: Mosaic covenant = Jews.
Whenever I hear that I think of the myriad of verses stating that 'this
applies not only to you, but to the alien living within you.' It is an oft
repeated clause. Who were the aliens? Were they not Gentiles? Also, was not a mixed
multitude given the Ten Words? Lastly, are not Gentiles represented in
Ephriam and Menasah?
All that to say Israel's Mosaic Covenant always included Gentiles. It does
not seem to need an expansion to include them. Nor do the promises of Jeremiah
need to be ripped out of Israel and Judah's hands in order to be placed in
the lap of the Church. IMHO
