Commentaries:
Jesus Christ was the divine Messenger sent by God to preach to the descendants of ancient Israel. Since Malachi called Him the Messenger of the Covenant (Malachi 3:1), His message is the proclamation of the New Covenant. This message is the New Testament gospel!
What Is the True Gospel?
The punishment of Israel had not ended even in Christ's time, more than 700 years after Israel's fall. In about AD 31, Christ says He was "not sent except to the lost sheep of the house of Israel" (Matthew 15:24). They were still "lost" in His day, not having returned to Canaan.
