Israel’s Rejection and God’s Purpose(A)
6 (B)But it is not that the word of God has taken no effect. For (C)they are not all Israel who are of Israel, 7 (D)nor are they all children because they are the seed of Abraham; but, (E)“In Isaac your seed shall be called.” 8 That is, those who are the children of the flesh, these are not the children of God; but (F)the children of the promise are counted as the seed.

10 How then was it accounted? While he was circumcised, or uncircumcised? Not while circumcised, but while uncircumcised. 11 And (A)he received the sign of circumcision, a seal of the righteousness of the faith which he had while still uncircumcised, that (B)he might be the father of all those who believe, though they are uncircumcised, that righteousness might be imputed to them also, 12 and the father of circumcision to those who not only are of the circumcision, but who also walk in the steps of the faith which our father (C)Abraham had while still uncircumcised.

New King James Version
Israel Refined for God’s Glory
48 “Hear this, O house of Jacob,
Who are called by the name of Israel,
And have come forth from the wellsprings of Judah;
Who swear by the name of the Lord,
And make mention of the God of Israel,
But (A)not in truth or in righteousness;
2 For they call themselves (B)after the holy city,
And (C)lean on the God of Israel;
The Lord of hosts is His name:
Hosea 1:6-9
New King James Version
6 And she conceived again and bore a daughter. Then God said to him:
“Call her name [a]Lo-Ruhamah,
(A)For I will no longer have mercy on the house of Israel,
[b]But I will utterly take them away.
7 (B)Yet I will have mercy on the house of Judah,
Will save them by the Lord their God,
And (C)will not save them by bow,
Nor by sword or battle,
By horses or horsemen.”
8 Now when she had weaned Lo-Ruhamah, she conceived and bore a son. 9 Then God said:
“Call his name [c]Lo-Ammi,
For you are not My people,
And I will not be your God.

Isaiah 1:9-15
New King James Version
9 (A)Unless the Lord of hosts
Had left to us a very small remnant,
We would have become like (B)Sodom,
We would have been made like Gomorrah.
10 Hear the word of the Lord,
You rulers (C)of Sodom;
Give ear to the law of our God,
You people of Gomorrah:
11 “To what purpose is the multitude of your (D)sacrifices to Me?”
Says the Lord.
“I have had enough of burnt offerings of rams
And the fat of fed cattle.
I do not delight in the blood of bulls,
Or of lambs or goats.
12 “When you come (E)to appear before Me,
Who has required this from your hand,
To trample My courts?
13 Bring no more (F)futile[a] sacrifices;
Incense is an abomination to Me.
The New Moons, the Sabbaths, and (G)the calling of assemblies—
I cannot endure iniquity and the sacred meeting.
14 Your (H)New Moons and your (I)appointed feasts
My soul hates;
They are a trouble to Me,
I am weary of bearing them.
15 (J)When you [b]spread out your hands,
I will hide My eyes from you;
(K)Even though you make many prayers,
I will not hear.
Your hands are full of [c]blood.
