It is widely understood that the books of the Old Testament were written for Israel.
Less understood is that there are epistles written to Israel in the New Testament, too.
The reason this is not recognized is that most assume that since Christ came everything written was for the church today. Afterall, didn’t Israel reject their Messiah?
Not all of them did. There was a remnant that believed Him.
This is why James writes his epistle “to the twelve tribes which are scattered abroad” (James 1:1).
There are no tribes in the Church today. Gentiles are not scattered in Gentile nations. They are right at home.
James was writing to the remnant of Israel scattered from Jerusalem for believing in their Messiah (see Acts 8:1).
Peter writes to the same scattered “strangers” in his epistles.
These letters were written by the elders of the church in Jerusalem to their scattered congregation – the remnant nation of Israel, the believing twelve tribes, the holy nation (1 Pet 2:9).
Unlike Paul’s epistles, which were often addressed to churches established and gathering in a Gentile city or region, the Remnant epistles are written to Jewish believers scattered and strangers among those cities and regions. Their nation was Israel.
If one of Israel’s twelve tribal apostles wrote the epistle, then you are likely reading an epistle to the scattered Messianic nation of Israel (Matt 19:28; Gal 2:9).
