Matthew 10:6
But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel—Until Christ's death, which broke down the middle wall of Partition (Ephesians 2:14), the Gospel commission was to the Jews only, who, though the visible people of God, were "lost sheep," not merely in the sense which all sinners are (Isaiah 53:6; I Peter 2:25; compare with Luke 19:10), but as abandoned and left to wander from the right way by faithless shepherds (Jeremiah 50:6, Jeremiah 50:17; Ezekiel 34:2-6, etc.).
