If you're looking for "messiah," you're working with a very poor translation of both its literal meaning and its intent or expectation.
It means that while the Jews were in the desert, God took the holy bible, the Torah, So when God went to the Jewish people, the Jews answered, "Of course we want your holy Torah!" That's what it means to say that the Jews are God's chosen people!
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.
See Exodus ch.19 and Deuteronomy 26:16-19.
Jews don't have Gods. They have a God.
The Jews believe proudly that they are gods on chosen people, according to the bible, and Abraham is the father of the nation. _____________ Most non-Jews misunderstand the meaning of 'chosen' in reference to Jews.

This means people who are Christians (in Christ) are all equal, one person is not better than another.The Jews were Gods chosen people and as His chosen people had privileges and blessings.

According to the Tanach (Hebrew Bible), Jews are the chosen people. In this context, 'chosen' refers to Jews having been chosen to follow the teachings of the Tanach.
The Jews were not chosen to crucify Jesus Christ. God is our Father, and just like a father knows what his young child might do in certain situations, God our Heavenly Father knows the actions we will take, even if He might not approve of them. God knew that most of the Jews of that time would not accept Jesus, He didn't choose them to do it or want them to do it, He simply knew that they would.God's perfect plan for us, His children, required that Jesus Christ be crucified to atone for our sins. Because God knows and understands all things perfectly, He knew that sending Jesus to earth at that time to those people would result in the crucifixion. He didn't specifically choose the Jews, nor did He make the Jews do it - He only knew that they would make that choice.
No, only Jews are racist and that is because they say they are chosen people by God which means they are better than the rest.
There is no Hebrew or Yiddish word that refers to someone who is not Jewish. In English, the Hebrew word "goy" is used, but this word only means "nation". Jews do not have a specific word that they use to reference the fact that non-Jews are not Chosen.
