By claiming to be "God's chosen people" are Orthodox Jews declaring themselves as the master race?

Question

Paperback come now we both know that if I were to answer this question with one of my backup accounts I would have a far sexier user name than "Deadbrain"

Answer 1

Not at all. There are putting the mark of christian envy on their heads.

Answer 2

1) no.

2) Jews don't "claim to be God's chosen people".

3) no.

4) chosenness as the bible refers to Jews about, does not imply any sort of superiority or better-ness. just chosen for a task.

5) no.  

Answer 3

Actually Jews don't claim this. God ordained them as such. So they are only acknowledging their status before God.

Answer 4

Being chosen by L-w, to be a servant(slave) to such sin and death, is as being taken captive by D-evil, goes to<-->fro earth with law<-->law; using a child of L-w to make one proselyte: more the child of h**l(law), who then gives place and power to vengeance is mine saith the LAW, when it comes to Revelation 13's two beast LAW<--Law. For LORD said to Lord, sit at my right till I make your enemies your footstool.

Hmmm, if L-w finds fault with everyone: sinners all, none righteous, and the wages of sin is death: surely die; Then such would be disaster us, a disaster of the globe-all sort, kinda like dinosaurs are extinct.

The GRACE of our Lord Jesus Christ with you all. Amen.

Answer 5

no brainwashed fools

Answer 6

No, not at all.  They are claiming only what the Bible declares, that God chose Abraham, Isaac and Jacob (later renamed to Israel) to be His special people, with a covenant.

Answer 7

No, they are identifying themselves the same way the Bible identifies them.

Answer 8

Being a Jew is not a Race.

Orthodoxy represent the most OBSERVANT of the Jews.

Master Race? What is this? Germany WWII again?

You see there's a common misconception about what "Chosen" means.

Chosen simply means, "Chosen to receive the Torah" and chosen to "Be a nation of Priests" and to "Be a Light unto the world"...

Chosen doesn't mean "gee I'm special" or "Gee I'm more important"...

because Jews do recognize that all of humanity has a place in this world and the next.  

Answer 9

Kinda seems that way doesn't it? IDK what 2 tell u, because God wants us 2 spread his love 2 others, spread the written word(the Bible)become active in our Faith, and fear his power! It doesn't include being a "Chosen One."

Answer 10

They did not declare this, God did. Why and what they were chosen for is the matter of importance...

Answer 11

Got a bee in your bonnet over Jews?

No, Jews only believe that they have a special relationship with God (Just like all other religious people do).

With all the c**p they've been put through, I'd be asking God to pick someone else, but it's their choice.

Answer 12

They are claiming what is written in the Bible.  The Old Testament to be clear, because the New Testament says that Christians oare the newly chosen ones.  (1 Peter 2:4)

They are hardly the master race anyways.  The Bible says that they were chosen because they were the most rotten, stubborn and worthless of all the people on earth. HE chose them to show how merciful HE can be.

Answer 13

I think the whole concept of master race originated in book religions.  

Answer 14

That's not what G-d's chosen people means.

I'm too ill to be bothered to explain it for the hundredth time, so I'll just star it for one of my contacts to explain.

Peace.

EDIT: Actually, I see one of my contacts (Paperback) has explained adequately. I'll have that star back.

Answer 15

well if their not the master race why do they call them selves gods chosen people??

what are the rest??the people god spurned????

seriously.....

Answer 16

*yawn*

Jews are 'chosen' in the sense of having to keep more laws. That's it. That is ALL.

As every Jew in this forum has explained over, and over, and over: Judaism teaches that we ALL are EQUALLY G-d's children.

But YOUR spiteful and pitiful attempts to portray Jews as believing such a horrible thing has been duly noted. Don't think for one minute that the precise wording of your 'question' is lost on any Jew on this site.

Oh, and look, DEADBRAIN or whatever his name is has just gone and proved my point. Presumably the asker is most happy - assuming that DEADBRAIN is not the asker under a different username....?

For ANYONE to state 'maybe the Holocaust was karma' is VILE. No sane person would ever countenance such a vile idea.

TO THE ASKER

We'll have to agree to disagree. If you're insensitive and foolish enough to post this daft 'question' then no, I doubt any of your usernames are much better.

1 - since when do YOU speak for G-d...?-

2 - clearly you need to go back and re-read your own bible. It is made clear that Israel, aka Jews, have an *eternal* covenant with G-d. It is stated in your OWN scriptures.

3 - no, we do not 'sit at the foot of the cross'. You may do, as is your right. Jews don't - as is OUR right.

Answer 17

O_O

That is an EXCELLENT point! The n***s called themselves the Master Race and saw Jews as the inferior; this idea that you present actually sort of turns the tables, so that now the Jews are the n**i-ish ones here. And they DID slaughter quite a few lives in the Old Testament because God told them to, which could be interpreted as their way of showing that they have priority over other races.

So wouldn't that make the Holocaust nothing more than Karma then?

Answer 18

In todays economy , God has declared the Nation Israel as "LO AMMI" which means "not my people."

Jews have NO special standing in this age of GRACE. The Bible tells us that "God has concluded them ALL (Jew AND Gentile) in Unbelief, so that He could have mercy upon all."

Their distinct NATIONAL standing will be resumed when we who are the church which is His body are taken OUT of this world and the age of GRACE ends. THEN , and only then, will God continue with the last course of curses that Israel signed up for in Leviticus 26.

There is NO master race. We are all equal at the foot of the Cross.
