How do Gentiles share in Israel's promises without replacing Israel?

Part of a series: questions that make more sense when the Tanakh and the New Testament are read together.

Paul's image in Ephesians is a wall coming down, not a replacement — Gentiles “grafted in,” not a new tree planted over the old one (Ephesians 2:11–22; Romans 11).

How do you hold “Gentiles share in the promises” and “Israel isn't replaced” at the same time?
