Are G-d's promises to Israel transferable to gentiles? ~ Cross reference of Hebrews 13:5 to Deuteronomy 31:6, Psalm 118:6

There is not much theology involved in this cross reference. Hebrews 13 is a closing letter to the audience. The author is leaving a set of commands and expectations from the audience. That said, only issue I see is the Christians claiming promises G-d gave Israel for themselves.  Kind of incorrect as they claim the promises and denounce the asks of G-d.

Let us see what Psalm 118 is all about and see why Matthew making Jesus quote this verse to seal his decision to not come back unless the Jews accept him is incorrect.
