"bringing into existence a race"

Was Isaac of the race of Abraham? He was the son of promise because he carried the faith of Abraham, not becacuse of the genes of Abraham. It was also ordained of God that Isaac marry Rebekkah who was NOT of the genes of Abraham. Rebekkah and Isaac had two genetic (or racial) sons. The twins were of the same genetics of Abraham but one lacked the faith of Abraham. Is your racial theories were correct, then Esau would have had equal rights to the "racial" promises because, as you said in your false theory, he was part of the "race brought forth". But Esau, the PURE genetic (racial) son of Abraham was excluded from the promises because he lacked the faith of Abraham.

Consequently, your racial theory that God established a people of race is wrong. God established a people of faith.
Abraham was the father of that faith.
