Why has to be God of Israel?

Why has to be from Israel / Jewish people?
- Abraham (ancestor of the Jewish people) believed in One True God, the creator of Heaven and Earth.
Genesis 26:5
// Because Abraham hearkened to My voice, and kept My charge, My commandments, My statutes, and My instructions." //

- Jewish nation is the Light of the World:
Isaiah 49:6
// And He said, "It is too light for you to be My servant, to establish the tribes of Jacob and to bring back the besieged of Israel, but I will make you a light of nations, so that My salvation shall be until the end of the earth." //

- Jewish nation is a Priestly Nation:
Exodus 19:6
// And you shall be to Me a kingdom of princes and a holy nation.' These are the words that you shall speak to the children of Israel." //

- God is with Jewish people:
Zachariah 8:23
// So said the Lord of Hosts: In those days, when ten men of all the languages of the nations shall take hold of the skirt of a Jewish man, saying, "Let us go with you, for we have heard that God is with you." //

God reveal Himself to the whole Jewish Nation, not to a single individual.
- Deuteronomy 4:10
// the day you stood before the Lord your God at Horeb, when the Lord said to me, "Assemble the people for Me, and I will let them hear My words, that they may learn to fear Me all the days that they live on the earth, and that they may teach their children. //

God is Righteous and Just, non-monopolized access to Himself. He is open to everyone:
Ezekiel 18:32
// For I do not desire the death of him who dies, says the Lord God: so turn away and live!" //

Psalms 6:6
// For there is no memory of You in death; in the grave, who will thank You? //
115:17 - // Neither will the dead praise God, nor all those who descend to the grave. //

- Gentiles (non-Jewish) that is recorded as righteous
Genesis 5:23
// And Enoch walked with God, and he was no longer, for God had taken him. //

Genesis 6:9
// These are the generations of Noah, Noah was a righteous man he was perfect in his generations; Noah walked with God. //

Job 1:8
// Now the Lord said to the Adversary, "Have you paid attention to My servant Job? For there is none like him on earth, a sincere and upright man, God-fearing and shunning evil." //

- Gentile Priesthood to God that is recorded as servant of God
Genesis 14:18
// And Malchizedek the king of Salem brought out bread and wine, and he was a priest to the Most High God. //

- Gentile nation (before Hebrew Nation is established) that is recorded as a Righteous Nation
Genesis 20:4
// And Abimelech had not come near to her, and he said, "O Lord, will You kill even a righteous nation? //

The above is examples recorded from the Jewish Holy Scripture before Jewish Nation is chosen and established.

The Jewish Holy Scripture, Tanakh - contains information for people outside Jewish people to seek God.
- God created everything:
Genesis 1:1
// In the beginning of God's creation of the heavens and the earth. //
2:1 - // Now the heavens and the earth were completed and all their host. //

- Relationship with Human Beings
Genesis 9:16
// And the rainbow shall be in the cloud, and I will see it, to remember the everlasting covenant between God and between every living creature among all flesh, which is on the earth." //

Why going to Heaven is NOT the ultimate reward? It is because God wish to live among his creation:
Psalms 115:16
// The heavens are heavens of the Lord, but the earth He gave to the children of men. //
78:69 // And He built His Sanctuary like the high heavens, like the earth He established it forever. //
104:5 // He founded the earth on its foundations that it not falter to eternity. //

Ecclesiastes 1:4
// A generation goes and a generation comes, but the earth endures forever. //

Isaiah 45:18
// For so said the Lord, the Creator of heaven, Who is God, Who formed the earth and made it, He established it; He did not create it for a waste, He formed it to be inhabited, "I am the Lord and there is no other. //

Records of God dwell on Earth with his creation
- First time (In the Desert):
Exodus 40:38
// For the cloud of the Lord was upon the Mishkan (tabernacle) by day, and there was fire within it at night, before the eyes of the entire house of Israel in all their journeys. //

- Second time (during King Solomon's Time):
1 Kings 8:43
// You shall hear in heaven Your dwelling place, and do according to all that the stranger calls You for, that all peoples of the earth may know Your Name, to fear You, as (do) Your people Israel, and that they may know that Your Name is called upon this house that I have built. //

- Third time (returning from Exile):
Ezra 1:3
// Who is among you of all His people, may his God be with him, and he may ascend to Jerusalem, which is in Judea, and let him build the House of the Lord, God of Israel; He is the God Who is in Jerusalem. //

- The last and final Temple:
Ezekiel 43:9 (begins from chapter 40, vividly described how the temple should be build)
// Now they shall distance their harlotry and the corpses of their kings from Me, and I shall dwell among them forever. //

Before God can dwell with his creations, work needed to be done to make this world righteous again.
- Psalm 37:9
// For evildoers shall be cut off, and those who hope for the Lord-they will inherit the land. //
37:11 - // But the humble shall inherit the land, and they shall delight in much peace. //
37:29 - // The righteous shall inherit the land and dwell forever in it. //
37:34 - // Hope to the Lord and keep His way; He will exalt you to inherit the land, and you will witness the destruction of the wicked. //

Isaiah 60:21
// And your people, all of them righteous, shall inherit the land forever, a scion of My planting, the work of My hands in which I will glory. //

How to inherit the Earth?

Genesis 26:5
// Because Abraham hearkened to My voice, and kept My charge, My commandments, My statutes, and My instructions." //

Genesis 2:16-17 (Obey)
// And the Lord God commanded man, saying, "Of every tree of the garden you may freely eat. But of the Tree of Knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat of it, for on the day that you eat thereof, you shall surely die." // but Adam didn't Obey (listen) Genesis 3:17
// And to man He said, "Because you listened to your wife, and you ate from the tree from which I commanded you saying, 'You shall not eat of it,' cursed be the ground for your sake; with toil shall you eat of it all the days of your life. //

Exodus 15:26
// And He said, If you hearken to the voice of the Lord, your God, and you do what is proper in His eyes, and you listen closely to His commandments and observe all His statutes, all the sicknesses that I have visited upon Egypt I will not visit upon you, for I, the Lord, heal you //

- Negative (or Indirect) example why God is grief with disobedience.
Psalms 81:11
// But My people did not hearken to My voice, neither did Israel desire to [follow] Me. //
81:13 - // If only My people would hearken to Me, if Israel would go in My ways. //
