The Lord had said to Abram...

Not to descendants of Abraham. If he did, it would seem God didn’t keep his promise. Because every nation that kicked Israel’s ass never end up any worse off than any other nation.

It’s because that promise was SPECIFIC to Abraham. Or are you saying his promise was really disappointing a dozen times in the past?

God promised Solomon wisdom. Thank God nobody has foolishly interpreted that to mean al if his descendants as well.

Gods “curse, blessing” promise was not directed to Biblical Israel, much less to Israel in the new covenant world.

Only Paul is an apostle to the gentiles, the rest of the Bible is written to the Jews.
