Our Saviors Jewish, Virgin Birth

Salvation Is Extended To The Church Via The Jews
And it was finally through Jesus (Yeshua), born a Jew that the promises given to Abraham have been extended to the rest of the world that we may become partakers of those same promises. "at that time had no Messiah. You were estranged from the national life of Israel. You were foreigners to the covenants embodying God's promise. You were in this world without hope and without God. But now, you who were once far off have been brought near through the shedding of the Messiah's blood." Eph. 2:12-13 (JNT) "that in union with the Messiah and through the Good News the Gentiles were to be joint heirs, a joint body and joint sharers with the Jews in what God has promised." Eph. 3:6 (JNT)
Apostle Paul, himself a Jew, told us this:
"In that case, I say, isn't it that they have stumbled with the result that they have permanently fallen away? Heaven forbid! Quite the contrary, it is by means of their stumbling that the deliverance has come to the Gentiles, in order to provoke them to jealousy ………For if their casting Yeshua aside means reconciliation for the world, what will their accepting him mean? It will be life from the dead! ..…..and you - a wild olive - were grafted in among them and have become equal sharers in the rich root of the olive tree, then don't boast…….." Rom. 11:11,15,17,18 (JNT)
Jesus Did Not Abolish Judaism
Jesus was born and raised as a Torah-observant Jew. He was considered a rabbi and taught the people like a rabbi. He Himself clearly affirmed the Torah when He said: "Don't think that I have come to abolish the Torah (Law) or the Prophets. I have come not to abolish but to complete. Yes indeed! I tell you that until heaven and earth pass away, not so much as a yud or a stroke will pass from the Torah - not until everything that must happen has happened." Matt. 5:17-18. (JNT). Jesus did not abolish Judaism but He reformed Judaism (Heb 9:10), which reform many Jews could not accept as of God, thus opening the way for the gospel to be preached to the Gentiles who gladly received the gospel.
Someone puts it this way:
"Because of the ministry of Jesus and His redemptive work on the cross of Calvary, Gentiles as well as Jews can now maintain the righteous principles of the law.
