No they are not at this point. God’s dealing solely with the Jews was suspended after the death and resurrection of Jesus. The “time of the Gentiles” will end and at that point (the time of the Tribulation) the Jews or Nation of Israel will once again return to the Temple offerings etc having rebuilt the Temple. They are currently building and fabricating all of the Temple furnishings etc.

They will finally realize that Jesus was indeed the promised Messiah during the Tribulation period. That is not to say that even today there are Jews who come to the truth and become what are referred to as Messianic Jews. Those who have been “born again” having accepted Jesus as the Messiah. The Nation as a whole, however, have not and will revert and go through the last seven years of the 490 years promised them by God.

OK, that is a indirect way of saying ‘forever’ doesn’t mean ‘forever’ in Christian apologetics. Or perhaps dispensationalism is a forced view in order to have cake and eat it too.
