Thank you very much.
Douglas J. Moo writes in, The epistle to the Romans, the following: see attached file Romans 9 a.( page 565)

Is it possible from the Greek text to know who Jesus was in the mind of Paul?, -- a choice between either the messiah sent by God or, alternatively, the presence of God incarnate.

Romans 9:4
They are descendants of Israel, chosen to be God's sons; theirs is the glory of the divine presence, theirs the covenants, the law, the temple worship, and the promises.

Romans 9:5
The patriarchs are theirs, and from them by natural descent came the Messiah. May God, supreme above all , be blessed for ever! Amen.
