Final answer:

In Jesus Christ, the Messiah of Israel, all of the Old Testament promises to Israel were fulfilled, and Israel has been redeemed, resurrected, and restored "in Christ."

Step-by-step explanation:

In Jesus Christ, the Messiah of Israel, all of the Old Testament promises to Israel were fulfilled, and Israel has been redeemed, resurrected, and restored "in Christ," outside of whom there is no membership in God's family. The Messiah, in Jewish doctrine, was expected to liberate the Jews from oppression and fulfill the Covenant between the Jews and God, delivering the Promised Land. Early Christians believed that Jesus had fulfilled these expectations, although the nature of the liberation was interpreted by them to be spiritual in nature rather than political.
