Keep the Sabbath? So, Nu, you Jewish?

Keep the Sabbath?

I am neither first-day nor seventh-day sabbatarian.

So, Nu, you Jewish?

With all my heart, a wild branch! Baruch haShem!

Romans 11:13-33 AV (Bolding and color by me for emphasis):

13"For I speak to you Gentiles, inasmuch as I am the apostle of the Gentiles, I magnify mine office:
  14If by any means I may provoke to emulation them which are my flesh, and might save some of them.  15For if the casting away of them be the reconciling of the world, what shall the receiving of them be,
but life from the dead? 
16For if the firstfruit be holy, the lump is also holy: and if the root be holy, so are the branches. 
17And if some of the branches be broken off, and thou, being a wild olive tree, wert graffed in among them,
and with them partakest of the root and fatness of the olive tree; 
18 Boast not against the branches. But if thou boast, thou bearest not the root, but the root thee. 
19Thou wilt say then, The branches were broken off, that I might be graffed in. 
20Well; because of unbelief they were broken off, and thou standest by faith. Be not highminded, but fear:
  21For if God spared not the natural branches, take heed lest he also spare not thee.
  22Behold therefore the goodness and severity of God: on them which fell, severity; but toward thee, goodness,
if thou continue in his goodness: otherwise thou also shalt be cut off.
  23And they also, if they abide not still in unbelief, shall be graffed in: for God is able to graff them in again.
  24For if thou wert cut out of the olive tree which is wild by nature, and wert graffed contrary to nature
into a good olive tree: how much more shall these, which be the natural branches, be graffed
into their own olive tree? 
25For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own
conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in.
  26And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written, There shall come out of Sion the Deliverer,
and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob: 
27For this is my covenant unto them, when I shall take away their sins.
  28As concerning the gospel, they are enemies for your sakes: but as touching the election,
they are beloved for the fathers' sakes.
  29For the gifts and calling of God are without repentance.
  30For as ye in times past have not believed God, yet have now obtained mercy through their unbelief:
  31Even so have these also now not believed, that through your mercy they also may obtain mercy.
  32For God hath concluded them all in unbelief, that he might have mercy upon all. 
33O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God!
how unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past finding out!
