yes, they are AnswerJews weren't chosen they were anointed and it has nothing to do with genetics.
Correction:
ALL Jews are chosen, however, you have to look at what chosen actually means. Chosen does not mean that Jews are better than anyone else, it simply means that Jews were chosen to keep the Torah.
Now, if you want to know if there is genetic testing to confirm the origins of Jews around the world, then yes, there is. Current testing shows that the majority of Jews in Europe originated in the Middle East with minimal genetic input from Europeans.

What is the difference between Christians and gentiles?
Generally speaking gentiles are people that are not Jewish. However that is with the exception of some Jews that are also Christians. Normally, in the New Testament at least, the contrast is made between Jews (God's chosen people) and Gentiles (Non-Jews). Most Christians are in fact Gentiles at the same time, so the two groups are not exclusive. The same would apply to Jewish Christians. Of course it must not be forgotten that many Gentiles are also not Christian and so there would be a difference in terms of them accepting or not accepting Jesus Christ.
