God's Kingdom
God's people and His chosen ones
Luke 16:16 (TS2009) The Torah and the prophets are until Yohanan. Since then the reign of Elohim is being announced, and everyone is doing violence upon it.

The Old Testament consists of the Law and the Prophets which are until John the Baptist. Since the Messiah the Kingdom of God is preached.
The Abrahamic covenant
Genesis 12:1-3 (TS2009) And YHWH said to Abram, “Go yourself out of your land, from your relatives and from your father’s house, to a land which I show you. “And I shall make you a great nation, and bless you and make your name great, and you shall be a blessing! “And I shall bless those who bless you, and curse him who curses you. And in you all the clans of the earth shall be blessed.”

The first covenant made by God was with Abraham.

Genesis 17:19 (TS2009) And Elohim said, “No, Sarah your wife is truly bearing a son to you, and you shall call his name Yitshaq. And I shall establish My covenant with him for an everlasting covenant, and with his seed after him.

The covenant with Abraham was confirmed by God with his son Isaac.

Genesis 28:3-4,14 (TS2009) And El Shaddai bless you, and make you fruitful and increase you, and you shall become an assembly of peoples,” and give you the blessing of Abraham, to you and your seed with you, so that you inherit the land of your sojournings, which Elohim gave to Abraham.” ... “And your seed shall be as the dust of the earth, and you shall break forth to the west and to the east, to the north and the south. And all the clans of the earth shall be blessed in you and in your seed.

The covenant trickled down via Abraham's son Isaac to his grandson Jacob and his descendents. Jacob was later named Israel (Genesis 32:28) and he had twelve sons which would become the twelve tribes of Israel. Their descendents spread throughout the world.
The Mosaic covenant
Exodus 19:3-6 (TS2009) And Mosheh went up to Elohim, and YHWH called to him from the mountain, saying, “This is what you are to say to the house of Yaaqob, and declare to the children of Israel: ‘You have seen what I did to the Mitsrites, and how I bore you on eagles’ wings and brought you to Myself. ‘And now, if you diligently obey My voice, and shall guard My covenant, then you shall be My treasured possession above all the peoples – for all the earth is Mine – ‘and you shall be to Me a reign of priests and a set-apart nation.’ Those are the words which you are to speak to the children of Israel.”

God reveals Himself to Moses on Mount Sinai and gives him the Ten Commandments. This event marks the beginning of a series of laws and regulations that God gives to the Israelites through Moses. These laws cover a wide range of topics, including worship, sacrifice, hygiene, and dietary restrictions. The covenant established the priesthood, with Aaron and his descendants serving as priests to the Israelites. It established the concept of atonement for sin, which is achieved through sacrifices and offerings, foreshadowing the ultimate sacrifice by the Blood of the Lamb, the Messiah.
The renewed covenant
The Messiah said...

Matthew 5:17 (TS2009) Do not think that I came to destroy the Torah or the Prophets. I did not come to destroy but to complete.

The Son of God completed the old Mosaic covenant. John said: for the Torah was given through Mosheh – the favour and the truth came through YHWSO Messiah. (John 1:17) Paul explains...

Hebrews 9:1,11-12,15,24 (TS2009) Now the first covenant indeed had regulations of worship and the earthly set-apart place. ... But Messiah, having become a High Priest of the coming good matters, through the greater and more perfect Tent not made with hands, that is, not of this creation, entered into the Most Set-apart Place once for all, not with the blood of goats and calves, but with His own blood, having obtained everlasting redemption. ... And because of this He is the Mediator of a renewed covenant, so that, death having taken place for redemption of the transgressions under the first covenant, those who are called might receive the promise of the everlasting inheritance. ... For Messiah has not entered into a Set-apart Place made by hand – figures of the true – but into the heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of Elohim on our behalf,

The sacrifice of the Messiah fullfilled the temporary sacrifices under the Mosaic covenant. The physical temple of God on earth which was built by human hands, was replaced with the spiritual temple of God in heaven.

John 2:18-22 (TS2009) And the Yehudim answered and said to Him, “What sign do You show to us, since You are doing these?” YHWSO answered and said to them, “Destroy this Dwelling Place, and in three days I shall raise it.” Then the Yehudim said, “It took forty-six years to build this Dwelling Place, and You are going to raise it in three days?” But He spoke about the Dwelling Place of His body. So, when He was raised from the dead, His taught ones remembered that He said this to them. And they believed the Scripture and the word which YHWSO had said.

The Jews talk about the physical temple in Jerusalem. The Messiah talks about His body becoming the Holy Temple after His resurrection. He became the High Priest over the House of Elohim (Hebrews 10:21, Hebrews 5:5-6) Who sits at the right hand of God in heaven (Psalms 110).
God's people
Matthew 10:5-7 (TS2009) YHWSO sent these twelve out, having commanded them, saying, “Do not go into the way of the nations, and do not enter a city of the Shomeronim, but rather go to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. “And as you go, proclaim, saying, ‘The reign of the heavens has drawn near.’

The Messiah was not sent except to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. (Matthew 15:24) He was sent to bring the Good News of the Kingdom of God to all descendents of Israel, of the twelve tribes coming from Jacob, not to the other nations. He gave this task also to His twelve disciples. At the time of the Messiah the Israelites had spread throughout the Greek and Roman empire. With the death of His disciples that work was completed and the first age came to an end. A new age began...

Acts 13:46-47 (TS2009) But speaking boldly, Shaul and Barnaba said, “It was necessary that the word of Elohim should be spoken to you first, but since you thrust it away, and judge yourselves unworthy of everlasting life, see, we turn to the nations. For so the Master has commanded us, ‘I have set you to be a light to the nations, that you should be for deliverance to the ends of the earth.’

Romans 11:11b-14 (TS2009) ... But by their fall deliverance has come to the nations, to provoke them to jealousy. And if their fall is riches for the world, and their failure riches for the nations, how much more their completeness! For I speak to you, the nations, inasmuch as I am an emissary to the nations, I esteem my service, if somehow I might provoke to jealousy those who are my flesh and save some of them.

Because many Israelites rejected the Messiah and His disciples, God spread the Good News of the Kingdom of God to all people in the world. God wants to save all people (Joel 2:32, 1 Timothy 2:4) and He tries to bring back the Israelites by means of jealousy. See also Acts 10:9-47 and Acts 17:24-31.

Galatians 3:6-7 (TS2009) Even so Abraham “did believe Elohim, and it was reckoned unto him as righteousness.” Know, then, that those who are of belief are sons of Abraham.

Abraham was a Hebrew, not a Jew or an Israelite. His faith in God was reckoned unto him as righteousness.

Romans 10:9-10 (TS2009) That if you confess with your mouth the Master YHWSO and believe in your heart that Elohim has raised Him from the dead, you shall be saved. For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and one confesses with the mouth, and so is saved.

God's people confess the Son of God as the Messiah and believe that God raised Him from the dead.
God's chosen ones
Revelation 14:1,4 (TS2009) And I looked and saw a Lamb standing on Mount Tsiyon, and with Him one hundred and forty-four thousand, having His Father’s Name written upon their foreheads. ... They are those who were not defiled with women, for they are maidens. They are those following the Lamb wherever He leads them on. They were redeemed from among men, being first-fruits to Elohim and to the Lamb.

God's Kingdom has a government which consists of the Son of God and God's chosen ones (Daniel 7:13,14,18,22,27). God's chosen ones number 144,000 and they come out of all the tribes of the children of Israel (Revelation 7:4). The descendents of the 12 tribes of Israel literally spread throughout the whole world after the Messiah and His disciples preached the Good News to the "lost sheep of Israel".

Revelation 6:10-11 (TS2009) And when He opened the fifth seal, I saw under the slaughter-place the beings of those having been slain for the Word of Elohim and for the witness which they held, and they cried with a loud voice, saying, “How long, O Master, set-apart and true, until You judge and avenge our blood on those who dwell on the earth?” And there was given to each one a white robe, and they were told that they should rest a little while longer, until both the number of their fellow servants and their brothers, who would be killed as they were, was completed.

In the time of the end God's chosen ones who are already in heaven yearn for His judgement and ask when God will avenge their sacrifice. Obviously, this refers to the time of the end. They were told to be patient until the number of their fellow servants and their brothers, who would be killed as they were, was completed meaning that there is still a remainder of God's chosen ones on earth in the time of the end, descendents of the 12 tribes of Israel. They receive God's name on their foreheads which protects them from God's wrath in the time of the end (Revelation 7:3, Revelation 9:4). See also Isaiah 66. It makes sense because the Good News of the Kingdom of God must still be preached to all people on the whole earth.

Mark 13:24-27 (TS2009) But in those days, after that distress, the sun shall be darkened, and the moon shall not give its light, and the stars of heaven shall fall, and the powers in the heavens shall be shaken. “And then they shall see the Son of Adam coming in the clouds with much power and esteem. And then He shall send His messengers, and assemble His chosen ones from the four winds, from the farthest part of earth to the farthest part of heaven.

After the Messiah completed His task on earth of spreading the Good News of the Kingdom of God to the lost sheep of Israel, He went back to heaven. The death of His disciples marked the end of the first age. I believe that the period between the death of His disciples and the time of the end is not mentioned in most prophecies, likely because this period does not have divine intervention on earth. Only in the time of the end the Son of God will return and His messengers will gather the remainder of God's chosen ones.
The New Jerusalem
Revelation 3:12 (TS2009) He who overcomes, I shall make him a supporting post in the Dwelling Place of My Elohim, and he shall by no means go out. And I shall write on him the Name of My Elohim and the name of the city of My Elohim, the renewed Yerushalayim, which comes down out of the heaven from My Elohim, and My renewed Name.

Revelation 21:2-3 (TS2009) And I, Yohanan, saw the set-apart city, renewed Yerushalayim, coming down out of the heaven from Elohim, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. And I heard a loud voice from the heaven saying, “See, the Booth of Elohim is with men, and He shall dwell with them, and they shall be His people, and Elohim Himself shall be with them and be their Elohim.

The New Jerusalem is God's Kingdom which comes from heaven to the earth after the time of the end. It is the bride of the Son of God, or the Lamb's wife (Revelation 21:9). It will be the dwelling place of God's people and it will be ruled by the Son of God and His chosen ones. It is also called the Mountain of God and it will fill all the earth (Daniel 2:35). In Revelation 14 the Son of God appears on Mount Zion. This is a mountain inside Jerusalem and in ancient times it used to be called Mount Moriah, where king Solomon built the first Temple of God (2 Chronicles 3:1). Mount Zion in the New Jerusalem likely symbolizes the residence of the Son of God, the High Priest, the King of Kings (Zechariah 8:3, Revelation 17:14, Revelation 19:16).
