The conflict in the Middle East is first and foremost a conflict over the identity of the Jew or Chosen People.

The Moslems are taught by the Quran that they are the Chosen People through Hagar and Ishmael. They trace their identity through genetics or race.

The Jews believe that they are The Chosen through Isaac and Rebekah. They trace their identity through genetics and race.

The Christians believe that they are the Chosen People through Faith in Christ. The Christian identity is a spiritual identity that traces heritage solely through Jesus Christ and not through race or genetics.

So, the question is grampa: who is a Jew under Jesus' New Covenant?

Romans 2:28,29 WHO IS A JEW UNDER JESUS' NEW COVENANT?

28: For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh:
29: But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God.


Galatians 3: 27-29-ABRAHAM'S SEED UNDER NEW COVENANT

27: For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ.
28: There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.
29: And if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise.
