Where in the Torah are Jews called to separate themselves as a chosen people?

It is more the case that God separated a people out for himself and called them Israel, not Jews. The word Jew is the short modern form of the word Judah. Judah, can be speaking about a person (Jacob's son) but can also be speaking about the Southern Kingdom (Judah) while the Northern Kingdom retained the name Israel. It is prophecied that both kingdoms will reunite prior to an earthly reign of a messiah and the two kingdoms will never be divided again.
Now, where did that happen? While there are some non-mainstream answers that do stand in harmony with scripture, I believe it best to point to either Exodus 19 where Israel agrees to covenant with God or one can point to Moses going into Egypt to bring out a people for God to covenant with. (Also Exodus)

How did the Jew's view of themselves As chosen people shape their history?
The belief in being the "chosen people" contributed to a sense of identity, purpose, and responsibility among the Jews throughout history. It influenced their religious practices, cultural traditions, and interactions with other communities. This belief also sometimes led to persecution and discrimination as they were seen as separate and favored by God.
