In the Old Testament, God divided humanity into two “racial” groups: Jews and Gentiles. God’s intent was for the Jews to be a kingdom of priests, ministering to the Gentile nations.
Katika Agano La Kale, Mungu aliwaganya wanadamu katika “vizazi” viwili: Wayahudi na watu wa mataifa. Lengo la Mungu kwa Wayahudi lilikuwa wawe ufalme wa makuani, wahudumu kwa mataifa.
