The "Jew", "Gentile" & "father" Abraham Simplified

"Blessings to Jew and Gentile.
This blessedness comes alike to the circumcision and to the uncircumcision.


We have here a repetition of the truth set forth ...that there is no difference in the matter of justification.
Abraham is the father of the Jewish nation after the flesh, but the blessing which he received was while he was uncircumcised, the same as any other Gentile.

Therefore he can be the father of both the Jews and the Gentiles. His blessing was received by faith, and therefore "they which be of faith are blessed with faithful Abraham." Gal. 3:9."
