In the second half of Matthew's Gospel there is so much bad news for Israel at that time. Most of Jesus' parables seemed aimed at them right between the eyes.
It even seems that Jesus cursed their national symbol, the fig tree (his only destructive miracle it seems) to show forth that the nation Israel would be cast aside.
Do you agree with my assessment of this fig tree incident, by the way?
Yet many of the Reformed are hopeful for the eternal salvation of the Jews as a people.
Why is that and what are some quotes and links you can give me?
