Ephesians 2:11-12
So then, remember that at one time you were Gentiles in the flesh— called“ the uncircumcised” by those called“ the circumcised,” which is done in the flesh by human hands.At that time you were without the Messiah, excluded from the citizenship of Israel, and foreigners to the covenants of the promise, without hope and without God in the world.

2 Corinthians 11 18-2 Corinthians 11 22
Since many boast in an unspiritual way, I will also boast.For you, being so wise, gladly put up with fools!In fact, you put up with it if someone enslaves you, if someone devours you, if someone captures you, if someone dominates you, or if someone hits you in the face.I say this to our shame: We have been weak. But in whatever anyone dares to boast— I am talking foolishly— I also dare:Are they Hebrews? So am I. Are they Israelites? So am I. Are they the seed of Abraham? So am I.

The women answered,“ Yes, he is ahead of you. Hurry, he just now came to the city, because there’s a sacrifice for the people at the high place today.If you go quickly, you can catch up with him before he goes to the high place to eat. The people won’t eat until he comes because he must bless the sacrifice; after that, the guests can eat. Go up immediately— you can find him now.”

He will present part of the fellowship sacrifice as a fire offering to the Lord: the fat surrounding the entrails, all the fat that is on the entrails,and the two kidneys with the fat on them at the loins; he will also remove the fatty lobe of the liver with the kidneys.Aaron’s sons will burn it on the altar along with the burnt offering that is on the burning wood, a fire offering of a pleasing aroma to the Lord.

1 Samuel 2 13-1 Samuel 2 16
or for the priests’ share of the sacrifices from the people. When any man offered a sacrifice, the priest’s servant would come with a three-pronged meat fork while the meat was boilingand plunge it into the container or kettle or cauldron or cooking pot. The priest would claim for himself whatever the meat fork brought up. This is the way they treated all the Israelites who came there to Shiloh.Even before the fat was burned, the priest’s servant would come and say to the man who was sacrificing,“ Give the priest some meat to roast, because he won’t accept boiled meat from you— only raw.”If that man said to him,“ The fat must be burned first; then you can take whatever you want for yourself,” the servant would reply,“ No, I insist that you hand it over right now. If you don’t, I’ll take it by force!”

“ Now this is the law of the fellowship sacrifice that someone may present to the Lord:If he presents it for thanksgiving, in addition to the thanksgiving sacrifice, he is to present unleavened cakes mixed with olive oil, unleavened wafers coated with oil, and well-kneaded cakes of fine flour mixed with oil.He is to present as his offering cakes of leavened bread with his thanksgiving sacrifice of fellowship.From the cakes he must present one portion of each offering as a contribution to the Lord. It will belong to the priest who sprinkles the blood of the fellowship offering; it is his.The meat of his thanksgiving sacrifice of fellowship must be eaten on the day he offers it; he may not leave any of it until morning.“ If the sacrifice he offers is a vow or a freewill offering, it is to be eaten on the day he presents his sacrifice, and what is left over may be eaten on the next day.But what remains of the sacrificial meat by the third day must be burned up.

Romans 9:3-8
For I could almost wish to be cursed and cut off from the Messiah for the benefit of my brothers, my own flesh and blood.They are Israelites, and to them belong the adoption, the glory, the covenants, the giving of the law, the temple service, and the promises.The ancestors are theirs, and from them, by physical descent, came the Messiah, who is God over all, praised forever. Amen.But it is not as though the word of God has failed. For not all who are descended from Israel are Israel.Neither are they all children because they are Abraham’s descendants. On the contrary, your offspring will be traced through Isaac.That is, it is not the children by physical descent who are God’s children, but the children of the promise are considered to be the offspring.

For we are the circumcision, the ones who serve by the Spirit of God, boast in Christ Jesus, and do not put confidence in the flesh—although I once also had confidence in the flesh.
