Just a stab in the dark here, but the thought is probably that Israel according to the flesh is the wife of Yahweh, as distinct from the bride of Christ. I have heard such from some of the dispensational school.

Hi GiovannaNicoletta have you heard this before? I may have years ago I do not remember.

There are some passages in Isaiah which speak of the fact that the Jews will be given all the land promised to them and that God will not forsake them. God refers to Himself as Israel's "husband" here:

For your husband is your Maker, Whose name is the LORD of hosts; And your Redeemer is the Holy One of Israel, Who is called the God of all the earth. (Isaiah 54:5)
