It is the uniqueness of Isaac's birth that makes me use the term "race" for the Israelites, not genetics. That is my idiom. I am not sure if there is a Hebrew equivalent for "race" other than the word "nation."

I agree about Esau's disqualification as an heir of those promises which was due to his and his nation's sinfulness. According to Jeremiah, Obadiah, and Malachi, for examples, we see that they were eradicated through judgment.

National Israel, though, does have a destiny in the Millennium and beyond in which they must fulfill their original call to be the center of worship for all nations when their Messiah, Jesus Christ, along with his co-rulers, the resurrected saints, reign on the earth from Jerusalem's temple, the "place of the soles of His feet."
