Gentiles sometimes get jealous when they read about Israel's unique national calling to be the Lord's special, chosen people. The calling, however, did not denote being more loved by God, rather it was to function as a servant-nation to the rest of the World on His behalf.
Replying to @Joel7Richardson
Really good point! And to top it off we who follow Jesus are grafted into Israel! As Paul said a Jew is one who is one inwardly. Circumcision of the heart! To be jealous of Israel just really doesn’t make sense!
