Zone1 Are Jews Still the Chosen People?

[rosends]

Were Jews chosen to follow God's laws?

Exactly.

 

[ding]

Exactly.

Which is what I said.

 

[rosends]

No it isn't. Your second point was accurate but numbers 1 and 3 were not.

 

[ding]

No it isn't. Your second point was accurate but numbers 1 and 3 were not.

They are all the same point. Or were you unaware that they raised standards of conduct compared to their contemporaries? I think you just like to argue.

As for passing it down, how else would you expect the laws to be followed if you didn't pass it down to future generations?

Are Jews Still the Chosen People?​

Tell them , Yes .

Most of them have no idea that they have been fooled and they love the work of their brethren like Adolf and the present Nutty Nazi .
Somethings like Genocide and mass cruelty seem to turn them on .

Turn the other way when they find out how badly scammed they are .
It will all turn out rather unpleasantly methinks .

Are Jews still the "chosen people?"

Ther are certainly chosen by our deep state, and that may be more important to us right now.

Neither of those is part of being chosen. You are injecting your understanding and rationale but that is unrelated to Judaism.

The Jews mix the law with their traditions, and pass that down.

Sure they are. You don't think passing it down is part of being chosen? You don't believe they established laws that were heads and shoulders above their contemporaries?

Stop being so argumentative and just say thank you.

It was all passed down. They had a history of passing down oral accounts.

 

[rosends]

I think passing it down is a commandment to Jews but is not a part of being chosen.

You don't believe they established laws that were heads and shoulders above their contemporaries?

that's irrelevant to the "chosen" status

Stop being so argumentative and just say thank you.

stop trying to tell me what my religion believes and say sorry.

As usual I disagree with pretty much everything you say. What a shocker.

feel free to disagree, but I think my qualifications to speak about Jewish belief outstrip yours.

Google said I was right.

Actually, they have written those down as well. Kinda ironic.

Are Jews still the "chosen people?" Most Christians believe that God in human form (Jesus) fulfilled the Old Testament prophecy of a Messiah for the Jewish people. Since most Jews rejected Jesus, didn't they also reject God himself? If so, how could they still remain His chosen people? If they are not, what is their status according to Christian theology?

Two million Jews (who weren't Jews yet at that point) witnessed Moses receive G-ds message.

Once every Jew comes home and the world does their part, all will be revealed.

Call it chose or call it something else, it is a serious obligation and a burden people of principle should embrace.

 

[ding]

Actually, they have written those down as well. Kinda ironic.

Not really. Logical.

 

[Woodznutz]

Not really. Logical.

Don't you think that 'writing down' the 'oral' traditions is ironic? Humorous as well.

 

[Woodznutz]

Two million Jews (who weren't Jews yet at that point) witnessed Moses receive G-ds message.

Here's the census of Israelite men (only) in the wilderness of Sinai. Total tribal numbers including women and children are likely three to four times these numbers.

The other tribes didn't become 'Jews' once the Law was given. They remained who they were. Note a later census still addresses the individual tribes, of which Judah is but one.

God said so, so, yeah. God's chosen people is their status. Derp!
You can argue with God if you want. Seems like a dumb idea.
The Jews have The Ark, they do.
