But as far as Scripture goes, dirt and rocks and vain genealogies mean nothing to God. Unless, of course, those dirt and rocks and "vain" genealogies are an integral part of the promises made to the nation of Israel that God has yet to fulfill.

Nope. The dirt and rocks and vain genealogies mean nothing now that the Savior has appeared.
Dirt and rocks and vain genealogies are not any "integral part" of the salvation that Christ has won.
There are believing Jews and believing Gentiles. They are all one in Christ Jesus.
The rest is politics. Much of it is good politics. But it has no basis in Scripture.
The victory has been won. We're now experiencing its gracious aftermath.

The promise was that a Savior would come and give eternal life by grace through faith in that Savior to all who love His appearing.
And so He has.
