….more are the children of the desolate than the children of the married wife, saith Jehovah. Isa 54:1
….more are the children of the desolate than of her that hath the husband Gal 4:21
…other sheep I have, which are not of this fold… Jn 10:16
13 for not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified:
14 (for when Gentiles that have not the law do by nature the things of the law, these, not having the law, are the law unto themselves;
15 in that they show the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience bearing witness therewith, and their thoughts one with another accusing or else excusing them); Ro 2
34 And Peter opened his mouth and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons:

5 Yea, of Zion it shall be said, This one and that one was born in her; And the Most High himself will establish her.
