Look, we can pick and choose verses until the cows come home. Paul clearly explains in practically the entire last half of Romans (9-11) that Gentiles are grafted into the nation of Israel and that many "Israelites" do not belong to Abraham. The whole purpose of Romans 9 is to tell Gentiles they are part of the Abrahamic covenant.

And Romans 11 goes even further:

The Jews are blinded because of their unbelief. We are graffed in.

We are that "foolish" nation.

Honestly, I don't know how much clearer it has to be. Some simply want to throw out Romans 9-11 or ignore it. I wouldn't recommend it.

Picking and choosing verses, spiritualizing, and redefining words, are what supercessionists and other judeophobes are best at.
