Were the Pharisees Israelites?

Yes

[Ali Imran]

The Bible emphasizes that spiritual inheritance and being part of God's people are open to anyone through faith, making it possible for anyone to be considered a descendant of Jacob in a spiritual sense.

Isaac was born before Jacob and surely hệ has faith and obedience to be considered as an israelite  and he is the forefather of israelites

I'm sure you consider yourself God's people. Are you an Israelite too?

Act 2:22 “Fellow Israelites, listen to this: Jesus of Nazareth was a man accredited by God to you by miracles, wonders and signs, which God did among you through him, as you yourselves know

I'm under Jesus's New convenant. We believe we are part of God's covenant with Abraham, not through physical descent, but through faith in Jesus Christ.

So you're an Israelite?

“This is why only someone who has God's Spirit can understand spiritual blessings. Anyone who doesn't have God's Spirit thinks these blessings are foolish.”
‭‭1 Corinthians‬ ‭2‬:‭14‬ ‭CEV

[Lukongsimi]

No. Is ishmael an israelite?

He takes time to think lol

[Ali Imran]

No. Is ishmael an israelite?

No, of course not.

As the name already makes it clear, the children of Israel are descendants of Prophet Jacob, pbuh.

[Ali Imran]

So, the enemies of Jesus, the Pharisees, were also Israelites.

That means being an Israelite doesn't automatically make one blessed.

[Lukongsimi]

In John 10:30, Jesus said, “I and the Father are one

[Lukongsimi]

Ishmael was a heber

His followers are mostly Arabs

should the pharisees be blessed if they misinterpret the law?

[pinkpanther]

Ishmael was a heber

Isaac is the chosen heir of God's covenant with Abraham, while Ishmael, while also blessed, is not given the same covenantal status

[Lukongsimi]

Isaac is the chosen heir of God's covenant with Abraham, while Ishmael, while also blessed, is not given the same covenantal status

Because Ismael was born of the maid servant not same as Sarah 
Whom God has chosen a son for her.

Hagar was the wife of Prophet Abraham, pbuh.

As we can already see, being an Israelite doesn't mean much. It doesn't mean one will automatically be a God-fearing person. The proof can be seen by reading the Gospels, what Jesus pbuh said about the Pharisees, who were Israelites.

One of God's promises is the Land of Canaan which is modern day Palestine..

[cheekopekman]

One of God's promises is the Land of Canaan which is modern day Palestine..

Canaan was the Promised Land that God had promised the Israelites lah!  The Israelites had to totally destroy all the nations within the promised land but they did not lah! That's why now got problems lah!

Yes lah... so Moslems find themselves caught in a dilemma....whether to support God's promise or to stand by their fellow brothers.

Your muh did any miracles ? rose from the dead ascended into heaven ?
Only God can do all those miracles

But Hagar was chase out of the house with her son Ishmael
Wife only a name only.
