Matthew 15:24 But He answered and said, “I was not sent except to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.”
The Zohar makes an association between the Shekinah and the Temple and indicates that the Shekinah's spouse is the Messiah.

The body of Messiah is not Israel.
The body of Messiah is ONE NEW MAN that comprises of BOTH Jews and gentiles .
Yes he came to Israel first but was rejected (not by all but by the leaders and most of Israel)
(Ephesians 2:14) For he is our peace, who hath made both one, and hath broken down the middle wall of partition between us;
(Ephesians 2:15) Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in ordinances; for to make in himself of twain one new man, so making peace;
(Ephesians 2:16) And that he might reconcile both unto God in one body by the cross, having slain the enmity thereby:
(Ephesians 2:17) And came and preached peace to you which were afar off, and to them that were nigh.
(Ephesians 2:18) For through him we both have access by one Spirit unto the Father.
(Ephesians 2:19) Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God;
(Ephesians 2:20) And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone;
(Ephesians 2:21) In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord:
(Ephesians 2:22) In whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through the Spirit.
