Dear Tucker,
It was excruciating watching the interview you did with Ted Cruz a few days ago. Apart from the confusion regarding the political realities on the ground, you made several theological errors too.
Let’s start with Genesis 12:3, which Senator Cruz quoted. It obviously does not say we are to bless the “nation of Israel” — Israel was not the name at that time. The passage refers to Abraham and his physical seed, which became the nation of Israel.
