Biblical Proof That The Jews Are NOT \u2018God\u2019s Chosen People\u2019™<\/h1>\n

Jacob blesses Joseph\u2019s sons, Ephraim and Manasseh<\/strong><\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

[We have posted the following video in previous articles but have yet to comment on it \u2014 so that is what we will do here.<\/em>]<\/p>\n

This video \u2014 titled, \u201cThe Jews: The Not So Chosen People\u201d \u2014 apparently made by a Jew who isn\u2019t going along with his fellow Jews \u2014 and challenges their claim to \u201cchosen-ness\u201d by citing direct proof from the Bible.<\/p>\n

And one interesting aspect of this video is that he is not anti-Christian \u2014 in fact, he shows that Christ\u2019s prophecy about the fate of the Jews in Judea was correct.<\/p>\n

Not only that, he even suggests that the\u00a0\u201clost\u201d ten northern tribes of Israel<\/a>\u00a0migrated up into Europe \u2014 a fact that most Jews will mock and deride \u2014 smearing it as an \u201cantisemitic\u201d conspiracy theory.<\/p>\n

It is remarkable how simple the proof is that Jews are not \u2014 and\u00a0cannot be<\/em>\u00a0\u2014 God\u2019s Chosen People™ \u2014 and even more remarkable is that the vast majority of Christians simply take the Jews\u2019 word for it without question \u2014 clearly demonstrating that they do not read their Bibles \u2014 and if they do, they most certainly do not understand even this most simple concept.<\/p>\n

The only significant issue that we would disagree with in the video is that the narrator seems to suggest that today\u2019s Jews are, in fact, legitimate descendants of the Israelite \u201cJews\u201d \u2014 or Judah \u2014 of the Old and New Testaments \u2014 they most certainly\u00a0are not<\/a><\/em>\u00a0\u2014 but that\u2019s a different issue entirely \u2014 and one we\u2019ve addressed in\u00a0countless previous articles<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The \u201cJews\u201d that this video addresses are the legitimate Israelite tribe of Judah \u2014 not the so-called \u201cJews\u201d of today.<\/p>\n

We\u2019ve embedded the video here \u2014 and below the video, we\u2019ve made a transcript of the narration, which will allow you analyze it more carefully \u2014 and read the comments we\u2019ve added to clarify some of the points.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s a pretty known \u201cfact\u201d that the Jews are \u201cGod\u2019s Chosen People\u201d \u2014 and the Jewish \u201chomeland\u201d is Israel \u2014 and the Jews \u201cbelieve in\u201d the Old Testament \u2014 and that the Old Testament is \u201cabout Jews.\u201d<\/p>\n

However, almost none of these facts are true \u2014 nowhere in the Bible does it call Jews \u201cGod\u2019s Chosen People.\u201d Modern day Israel isn\u2019t really the homeland of the Jews. The Jews don\u2019t really believe in the Old Testament. And maybe only 5% of the people in the Old Testament can even be considered \u201cJewish.\u201d<\/p>\n

So now that you\u2019ve branded me an \u201cantisemite,\u201d we can begin.<\/p>\n

Are Jews \u201cGod\u2019s Chosen People\u201d?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

So the expression \u201cantisemite\u201d literally means \u201cagainst Shem\u201d or his descendants; however, being anti-Jewish isn\u2019t the same the same thing as being \u201cantisemitic\u201d. So let me explain.<\/p>\n

The Semites are the descendants of a man named Shem who would father some of the world\u2019s most renowned empires and dynasties, such as the Assyrian and Babylonian empires \u2014 and even the Persians can call themselves \u201cSemites.\u201d<\/p>\n

So why is it that when you say something against the Jews, you are considered \u201cantisemitic\u201d? Because just like stealing your religion, your homes, your money, and your businesses, some Jews also love stealing names, inheritance and land.<\/p>\n

So Shem is the son of Noah \u2014 the guy who built the ark when Mesopotamia flooded. The Samarian Kingdom would be destroyed by the flood \u2014 and the Semites would descend from the Caucasian Mountains and establish the Akkadian Empire.<\/p>\n

Shem would have children \u2014 and one of his descendants would be named Eber. He would be the father of the Hebrew people \u2014 and the Semites would be called by his name. Eber\u2019s line would eventually give birth to a man named Abram of a \u201cJew\u201d named Abraham \u2014 except that Abraham has\u00a0never<\/em>\u00a0been a Jew \u2014 nor will he ever be a Jew \u2014 and to call Abraham [a Jew] is\u00a0just plain ignorant<\/em>.<\/p>\n

So let\u2019s go through it.<\/p>\n

So according to the Bible, Abraham was a Hebrew and not a Jew (Genesis 14:13<\/a>) whom God promised would be the father of many nations (Genesis 17:4<\/a>) \u2014 not just one single Jewish nation but\u00a0many<\/em>\u00a0nations \u2014 and that through him all the families of the world would be blessed (Genesis 12:3<\/a>).<\/p>\n

[CFT Note<\/strong>: The translation here is somewhat misleading. \u201cFamilies\u201d here is better rendered as \u201ctribes\u201d or \u201ckindred tribes\u201d (based on the Hebrew \u201cmishpachah<\/em>\u201d \u2014 see\u00a0Strong\u2019s 4940<\/a>. And \u201cworld\u201d would be better translated as the \u201cknown land\u201d where these related tribes dwell \u2014 see\u00a0Strong\u2019s 127<\/a>\u00a0for \u201cadamah<\/em>\u201c.]<\/p>\n

Abraham would pass this blessing on to his younger son, Issac \u2014 and not his eldest son, Ishmael. Issac would have twin sons \u2014 Esau and Jacob. Again, the Abrahamic blessing would be passed down to the younger brother \u2014 Jacob \u2014 who would then be renamed to \u201cIsrael.\u201d<\/p>\n

Israel would then have twelve sons \u2014 his sons would become each their own tribes \u2014 and eventually become their own nations. One of his sons would be named Judah who would be the father of the \u201cJewish\u201d people \u2014 and all Jews are related to him. Even though all Jews are Israelites, the majority of Israelites are\u00a0not<\/em>\u00a0Jews.<\/p>\n

[CFT Note<\/strong>: As we\u2019ve previously stated, all Jews are not related to Judah \u2014 just as their claim to be \u201cGod\u2019s Chosen\u201d is incorrect, so is their pretension that they are\u00a0legitimate descendants of the Israelite tribe of Judah<\/a>. As the 1980 \u201cJewish Almanac<\/em>\u201d states, \u201cStrictly speaking, it is\u00a0incorrect to call an ancient Israelite a Jew or to call a contemporary Jew an Israelite or a Hebrew<\/strong><\/em>.\u201d]<\/p>\n

Obviously, Israel would have to have to pass the Abrahamic blessing to Judah in order for them to be the \u201cChosen\u201d people. Israel would want his favorite son \u2014 Joseph \u2014 to inherit the Abrahamic blessing. However, Judah \u2014 the father of the Jews \u2014 would be jealous and conspire with his brothers to have Joseph killed. In the end, Judah sold Joseph into slavery for silver \u2014 much like Judas sold Jesus to the Jews.<\/p>\n

So the Bible portrays Judah as the jealous villain \u2014 and Joseph\u00a0as the chosen son<\/em>. While in slavery, Joseph would rise to become the prime minister of Egypt \u2014 and father two sons named Ephraim and Manasseh.<\/p>\n

In the end, Joseph would adopt his sons and pass the Abrahamic blessing onto them \u2014 making them the \u201cChosen\u201d people \u2014 and dividing Joseph into two tribes \u2014 making 13 tribes of Israel.<\/p>\n

As for Judah \u2014 the father of the Jews \u2014 his two eldest sons would die, and Judah would end up bowing down to Joseph.<\/p>\n

So now that you understand that the Jews were never intended to bless the world \u2014 nor were they ever considered the \u201cChosen people\u201d \u2014 we can move on to our second point:<\/p>\n

So Is the Jewish Homeland Israel?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

And the answer is \u201cYes\u201d and not at all.<\/p>\n

Israel was originally called \u201cthe Land of Canaan\u201d \u2014 named after Noah\u2019s grandson Canaan. The land of Canaan was conquered by the Israelites after they left Egypt with Moses \u2014 found in the Book of Exodus. The Bible says that God commanded the Israelites to punish the Canaanites for their sexual immorality \u2014 which led to child sacrifice \u2014 which would eventually lead to cannibalism.<\/p>\n

The word \u201ccannibal\u201d actually comes from the words \u201cCanaan\u201d and the god \u201cBaal\u201d \u2014 Baal was the god of Canaan and \u2014 and the priests were known for eating the children after they were sacrificed to him. Hence why we call them \u201ccannibals.\u201d<\/p>\n

So now that you understand what kind of people were living in Canaan, try not to feel so bad when you read that God ordered us to exterminate them.<\/p>\n

The borders of the Jewish homeland were established by Joshua who was one of the descendants of Joseph \u2014 and\u00a0not<\/em>\u00a0from Judah. So if we were to restore the Jews to their original land, according to the Bible, the Jewish homeland would look\u00a0less<\/em>\u00a0like this:<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

\u2026.and more like this:<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

So like the story of Joseph and Judah, their children wouldn\u2019t get along likewise either. After becoming nations, there would be a civil war \u2014 the Jews would rule the southern kingdom of Judea \u2014 while Joseph\u2019s sons would rule the northern kingdom of Israel. They would have different religions \u2014 believe in different gods \u2014 and while Judah stayed in Judea, Joseph would ally himself with the Phoenicians and establish colonies and trade posts all over the Mediterranean.<\/p>\n

The Kingdom of Israel would become corrupted by foreign ideologies \u2014 and like the Canaanites \u2014 would fall into materialism, sexual immorality, and child sacrifice \u2014 which would lead to them being conquered by the Assyrian Empire.<\/p>\n

Some of the Israelites would be taken into captivity in the lands of Assyria and Medea \u2014 while some of the Israelites and Phoenicians would flee to their colonies and trade posts \u2014 fulfilling the promise made to Abraham that the world would be blessed through him (Genesis 15:5<\/a>) as he would be the father of many nations:<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

So the sons of Joseph would become fruitful and multiply among the nations \u2014\u00a0forgetting who they are<\/em>\u00a0\u2014 which shouldn\u2019t surprise us considering their names literally mean \u201cfruitful<\/em>\u201d [Ephraim] and \u201cforgetful<\/em>\u201d [Manasseh].<\/p>\n

Just like the northern kingdom, the Jews would fall into sexual immorality and start sacrificing their children \u2014 they would be conquered and enslaved by the Babylonians \u2014 then freed and re-established by the Persians \u2014 conquered again by the Greeks \u2014 and later occupied by the Romans.<\/p>\n

While under Roman rule, the Jews would launch the greatest revolution in Roman history known as \u201cThe Great Revolt\u201d \u2014 which would fail, causing Judea and Jerusalem, and the Jewish temple to be destroyed \u2014 ironically fulfilling\u00a0everything\u00a0<\/em>that Jesus and the Christian said would happen (Mark 13:2<\/a>).<\/p>\n

The Jews \u2014 not being satisfied with losing their temple and homeland \u2014 would\u00a0stab the Romans in the back<\/em>\u00a0by launching two\u00a0more<\/em>\u00a0rebellions [Kitos War and the Bar Kokhba Revolt], killing of half a million Greeks and Romans. God would bless \u201cthe Chosen people\u201d with two more humiliating defeats, along with the banishment from the land \u2014 causing Judea to be renamed \u201cSyria Palestinia<\/em>\u201d.<\/p>\n

So the reason why the Jews have been able to take Palestine really rests on the fact that they\u2019ve stolen the name \u201cIsrael\u201d and convinced the Christian West that they are \u201cthe Chosen People\u201d \u2014 and that they\u00a0alone<\/em>\u00a0are Israel. But once putting things into perspective, we that this just isn\u2019t true.<\/p>\n

Which brings us to our third point:<\/p>\n

Do the Jews believe in the Old Testament?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

The answer is \u201ckind of<\/em>\u201d and \u201cnot really<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n

While waving around the Old Testament as if they believed in it, the Jews actually have secondary books that they consider\u00a0just as<\/em>\u00a0important \u2014 the main book being called \u201cThe Talmud\u201d.<\/p>\n

To explain the Talmud, we have to understand some basic Jewish-Roman history, going back to Emperor Claudius (41AD \u2013 54AD) who \u2014 like Emperor Tiberius \u2014 tried to ban the Jews from Rome after branding them aggressive troublemakers.<\/p>\n

Sadly, Emperor Claudius didn\u2019t understand how to play The Game of Thrones \u2014 and ended up mysteriously being killed. His successor \u2014 Emperor Nero \u2014 would lift the Jewish ban \u2014 which shouldn\u2019t surprise us considering the Talmud says he was a Jewish convert. Nero and his Jews would engage in some of the most barbaric acts known to man.<\/p>\n

[CFT Note<\/strong>: Roman historian\u00a0Flavius Josephus called Nero\u2019s wife \u2014 Poppaea<\/a>\u00a0\u2014 a worshiper of the \u2018God of Israel\u2019 and that she urged Nero to show compassion to the Jewish people. In one account, Josephus shows how Poppaea advocated for the Jewish priests when an issue was brought before Nero by Herod Agrippa II, who was the Tetrarch of Jerusalem, concerning a wall that was built blocking Agrippa\u2019s view of the temple. She convinced Nero to not order the Jewish priests to tear down the wall and to leave the temple as is.]<\/p>\n

Just to give you an idea how crazy this pro-Jewish emperor was \u2014 Nero burned down Rome and blamed it on the Christians, causing them to be tortured and killed in the worst ways imaginable. He murdered his entire family and then kicked his pregnant wife and unborn child to death \u2014 and then castrated a young boy named Sporus and force him to dress like the wife whom he had just murdered.<\/p>\n

With the coming of Jesus, the Jews would divide into two main groups \u2014 those who believed that Jesus is the Messiah \u2014 while the other group of Jews rejected this claim, believing that their messiah would come wielding a sword to destroy the Romans and set up a Jewish empire \u2014 which is what led the Jews to rebel against Rome in the first place \u2014 that, and they just didn\u2019t want to pay taxes.<\/p>\n

After their failed rebellions, the Jews would retreat to Babylon \u2014 creating the religion we know today as \u201cJudaism\u201d \u2014 making Christianity\u00a0older by 200 years<\/em>. The Jews would argue and say that the Talmud is the oral law that was passed down orally without any mistakes since the time of Moses \u2014 before finally being written down between 200 and 400 years\u00a0after<\/em>\u00a0Jesus.<\/p>\n

This would place the Jews in first place above the Muslims for the longest, most successful game of\u00a0Broken Telephone<\/a>\u00a0ever played.<\/p>\n

The Talmud speaks of its \u201clove\u201d for Christians by calling the mother of Jesus a whore \u2014 and calling Jesus a bastard sorcerer who is in hell boiling in human [excrement] \u2014 which brings us to our last point:<\/p>\n

Is the Old Testament About Jews?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

The answer is \u201cNo, not really<\/em>\u201d \u2014 because the Jews have\u00a0stolen<\/em>\u00a0the name \u201cIsrael,\u201d you would never guess that the\u00a0majority<\/em>\u00a0of the people in the Bible are\u00a0not<\/em>\u00a0Jewish. The apostle Paul, for instance, even though everyone calls him a \u201cJew,\u201d publicly separates himself from the Jews (Philippians 3:5<\/a>,\u00a0Romans 1:1<\/a>) \u2014 and says, \u201cI am an Israelite of the tribe of Benjamin<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n

[CFT Note<\/strong>: This is simply incorrect \u2014 Paul\u00a0does<\/em>, in fact, call himself a Jew in\u00a0Acts 22:3<\/a>, \u201cI am verily a man which am a Jew, born in Tarsus<\/em>..\u201d What this narrator fails to understand is that in the context of the New Testament, the term \u201cJew\u201d \u2014 from the Greek \u201cIoudaios<\/em>\u201d (Strong\u2019s 2453<\/a>) \u2014 can refer collectively to the three Israelite tribes of the southern kingdom \u2014 Judah, Benjamin, and Levi. It can also mean \u201cJudean,\u201d but technically Paul is a Roman citizen from Tarsus, not a \u201cJudean.\u201d]<\/p>\n

The Bible also says that God sent Paul to preach among the Israelites (Acts 9:15<\/a>) \u2014 and funny enough, Paul\u2019s ministry wasn\u2019t in Judea, but he was sent to preach to the Galatians in Asia Minor, the Greeks in Greece, and the Romans in Rome.<\/p>\n

The Bible is constantly separating the Kingdom of Israel from the Kingdom of Judah \u2014 as it is constantly separating Joseph from Judah. The entire Jewish deception \u2014 and highjacking of the Bible \u2014 depends on them stealing the terms \u201cSemites\u201d, \u201cHebrews\u201d, and \u201cIsraelites\u201d.<\/p>\n

For example, Moses \u2014 the man who wrote the first five books known as The Torah \u2014 did\u00a0not<\/em>\u00a0come from the tribe of Judah, nor was he part of the Kingdom of Judea \u2014 yet\u00a0somehow<\/em>\u00a0he is [claimed to be] a \u201cJew.\u201d<\/p>\n

The reality here is that the majority of the people in the Old Testament are not Jewish. The Bible is a book that tells the history of many nations and peoples \u2014 like the Semites, the Hebrews, the Israelites, Egyptians, Phoenicians, Babylonians, Assyrians, Armenians, Persians, Greeks, Romans, and many others. It\u2019s not only about \u201cJews.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
