"God CARED about those who were BLOOD related to Abraham."
GOD is without change or mistake.
So then who must be mistaken or have changed?
Not GOD

Pay better attention.
God loved Abraham because he was had faith in God and obeyed God.
God said that Abraham would be blessed and all his children and their children, etc.
They would be blessed now, and even greater because a BLOOD RELATIVE from Abraham would come the Savior, Jesus Christ.
God told Abraham that when that happens, God would make a new covenant, and it would be based on FAITH.
Abraham was the one given circumcision of the flesh as a sign, and, Abraham offered animal sacrifices to God, as did Noah before him, as did Abel before him.
When Moses came, circumcision of the flesh was a sign that the people did the OTHER things that God commanded, which God commanded for the people to atone for their sins. That is the purification/ceremonial works of the law.
All the people had to clean/purify themselves, just to be called children of God, just so that God would walk among them.
There was a tent at the time, and a cloud...later a temple, and then another.
God's Spirit was at the tent and later in the temple.
However, since Jesus, who is the temple, we all become the temple.
