Old Testament Israel as a Type of the Church
(From Forerunner Commentary)

Exodus 12:48  (Go to this verse :: Verse pop-up) God made His covenant with Old Testament Israel, a type of the church (Galatians 6:16). God's focus and concern were overwhelmingly on them, and He dealt with other nations only as they came in contact with Israel. Though God makes provision in His law to accept non-Israelites who wanted to join Israel and worship the true God, He nowhere commands the Israelites to go out and make disciples of other nations. Rather, His approach is to attract outsiders by the example of obedient Israel being blessed by Him. John W. Ritenbaugh Who Is Doing the Work of God?
