| The answer is "FALSE". The Torah was given to the children of Israel. This included the tribe of Judah (Jews), but it also included the other tribes. In addition to the physical descendants of Jacob, a mixed multitude was in the camp. They were numbered right with the tribes of Israel. The Torah commandments were given to the NATIVE, the ALIEN, and the SOJOURNER that was also with them. The redemption from Egypt included any other slave who chose to follow the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Moses further stated in Deuteronomy that the Covenant given at that time was not only for those standing there but those who were not standing there (further descendants, future aliens and sojourners) The Apostle Paul states in 1 Corinthians 10 that "All our fathers" were part of that covenant including the Gentiles. He is teaching how Gentiles have a part in the past covenant. It is not just for the Jews or Israel. "For I do not want you to be unaware, bretheren, that our fathers were all under the cloud, and all passed through the sea; and all were baptized into Moses in the cloud and in the sea; and all ate the same spiritual food; and all drank the same spiritual drink, for they were drinking from a spiritual rock which followed them; and the rock was Christ." 1Corinthians 10:1-4 The mosaic covenant was given to the House of Jacob. The Messiah is the head of the House of Jacob. "And he will reign over the House of Jacob forever; and his Kingdom will have no end." Luke 1:33 |
