Through which nation did God bring the Bible and salvation into the world?

God brought the Bible and salvation into the world through the nation of Israel. Scripture shows that out of Israel would come this Book, the whole spiritual realm of salvation, and everything else. God's covenant promise to Abram began intrinsically with Israel, making that nation the very center of His dealing with the human race.

Les explains that God was dealing with Abram on covenant promises, bringing about the nation of Israel. Out of that nation would come this Book, our whole spiritual realm of salvation, and everything else; it all began intrinsically with Israel. Though Israel was small in numbers, God's definition of "great" was not about population or military power. Israel has been great in other ways and remains the center of all God's dealing with the human race, and through this one man would come God's flow of all spiritual blessing.
