I think the bible says otherwise.
As for Me, this is My covenant with them," says the LORD: "My Spirit who is on you, and My words that I have put in your mouth, will not depart from your mouth, or from the mouth of your children, or from the mouth of your children's children, from now on and forever," says the LORD.
Isaiah 59:21

Where does it say to the Jewish people, I will cut you off for two thousand years?

Let me ask you a question.
Do you think that God is done with the Jewish people?
As for Me, this is My covenant with them," says the LORD: "My Spirit who is on you, and My words that I have put in your mouth, will not depart from your mouth, or from the mouth of your children, or from the mouth of your children's children, from now on and forever," says the LORD.
Isaiah 59:21

No, I know God isn't.
Deadpan Snarker
OK, so we're in agreement.
As for Me, this is My covenant with them," says the LORD: "My Spirit who is on you, and My words that I have put in your mouth, will not depart from your mouth, or from the mouth of your children, or from the mouth of your children's children, from now on and forever," says the LORD.
Isaiah 59:21

While God isn't done with Israel there is many Jews that have died never knowing God.
Deadpan Snarker
Yes, there are many Jews who are non-religious.
As for Me, this is My covenant with them," says the LORD: "My Spirit who is on you, and My words that I have put in your mouth, will not depart from your mouth, or from the mouth of your children, or from the mouth of your children's children, from now on and forever," says the LORD.

The Muslims are religious, so how does that relate to knowing God?
Deadpan Snarker
God only knows.
As for Me, this is My covenant with them," says the LORD: "My Spirit who is on you, and My words that I have put in your mouth, will not depart from your mouth, or from the mouth of your children, or from the mouth of your children's children, from now on and forever," says the LORD.
Isaiah 59:21

The problem is it doesn't relate to knowing God. God had a method of worship for Israel which Israel no longer follows.

Or do they...?
As for Me, this is My covenant with them," says the LORD: "My Spirit who is on you, and My words that I have put in your mouth, will not depart from your mouth, or from the mouth of your children, or from the mouth of your children's children, from now on and forever," says the LORD.
Isaiah 59:21

It clearly requires a Temple and priest.Or do they...?
Deadpan Snarker
Hmm really? What happened between 586BC and 516BC?
As for Me, this is My covenant with them," says the LORD: "My Spirit who is on you, and My words that I have put in your mouth, will not depart from your mouth, or from the mouth of your children, or from the mouth of your children's children, from now on and forever," says the LORD.
Isaiah 59:21
I live here!
But that is only 70 yrs, isn't it, and not thousands of years. And didn't that soon get resolved thereafter? So why would it be taking God so long this next time around, as in from when the temple was destroyed in 70 AD? Could it be that it has already been resolved? The NT seems to think so.
Deadpan Snarker
So what? Given that people only lived about 30 years at the time, it meant several entire generations lived and died with no temple, no sacrifice, no priests...
How is that any different from the generations after 70? It isn't.
I don't pretend to understand why God does things.So why would it be taking God so long this next time around, as in from when the temple was destroyed in 70 AD?
The NT has it's rationale. Jews understand things differently. Everything will be resolved in the end I guess.Could it be that it has already been resolved? The NT seems to think so.
As for Me, this is My covenant with them," says the LORD: "My Spirit who is on you, and My words that I have put in your mouth, will not depart from your mouth, or from the mouth of your children, or from the mouth of your children's children, from now on and forever," says the LORD.
