Jesus Christ, the Good Shepherd, had two flocks, the original comprised of teh Children of Israel, and another flock, gentiles, whom He was to gather with the original flock.
He was born a Jew, lived as a Jew, and died the King of the Jews. He is our King.
He is teh Gate of the enemies of the Children of Israel, that being gentiles.
It seems tome if we have entered the Gate promised to Abrahams's descendants we are joining those inside. If we are subjects of teh King of the Jews, we are all Jews, and if we are to follow after Him in our lives we are to live as did He.
Keep in mind when Leah named Judah, she di so because she said, I will now praise YIah (Yahweh). This last phrase is more or the definition of the name, Judah, from which we have the shortened version Jew.
So if Jesus Christ is not your Example, if He is not you King, you do not praise God etc., then perhaps you are not Jewish.

Gen. 9: 25 And he said, Cursed be Canaan; a servant of servants shall he be unto his brethren.26 And he said, Blessed be the Lord God of Shem; and Canaan shall be his servant.
27 God shall enlarge Japheth, and he shall dwell in the tents of Shem; and Canaan shall be his servant.
I might not be the original branch, but my home is still with The Vine. (No idea who Canaan is today though, unless that's the world. If it is, they're not serving well. lol)
