Why are Jews God's chosen people?

Jews are God's voters, because at first Abraham, the ancestor of Jews, feared God, and God made a covenant with Abraham, so that his descendants became God's voters and were blessed by God. Jews are God's witnesses.

According to the historical records of the Old Testament, their distant ancestor Abraham (pronounced Ibrahim in Arabic) first lived near the Ur Empire of Sumerians, and later moved to Canaan (now Israel/Palestine).

He had two sons, and the youngest son Isaac became the ancestor of the Jews. According to the Bible and the Koran, the descendants of Ishmael, Abraham's eldest son, and Hagar, the maid, are Arabs. So in primitive blood, Jews and Arabs are very close.

In the history of information expansion, Jews have faced many devastating disasters and persecution. Jews have been scattered around the world for more than 2000 years, and their languages and characters are divided. They only rely on a unified religion to maintain their own single nation.

Because Jews believe that the savior has not yet arrived, they do not recognize Jesus Christ as the savior, which is also one reason why they are discriminated and persecuted by the Christian world. However, the late Catholic Pope John Paul II has admitted that he fought the Jews and made them suffer.

/kloc-In the 20th century, Zionism rose, and Jews from all over the world returned to Palestine to buy land and establish an Israeli state. Due to the different ways and degrees of compliance, there are three main factions of Judaism today, namely Orthodox, conservative and reformist.

Some religious scholars refer to Judaism, Christianity and Islam as Abraham's religion because they regard Abraham in the Old Testament as their prophet.
