3 For I would wish myself to be [a]separate from Christ, for my brethren that are my kinsmen according to the [b]flesh,
4 Which are the Israelites, to whom pertaineth the adoption, and the [c]glory, and the (A)[d]Covenants, and the giving of the [e]Law, and the [f]service of God, and the [g]promises.
5 Of whom are the fathers, and of whom concerning the flesh, Christ came, who is [h]God over all, blessed forever, Amen.
