ON THE JEWS (PART I): THE CHOSEN PEOPLE OF GOD

What I mean is, if the Bible was biased towards the Jews, then it wouldn't include marring and scandalous details that can easily be used against them, but would have been taken as a work of propaganda.

This isn't the case.

You read the bible, and it presents a far more negative image of the Jews than any would be comfortable with.

While there's an obvious benefit to being called the chosen people of God, which places them above all people in anyone's mind, there is also a negative aspect of it as well. Why, because unlike the un-elected nations, they bear the heavy responsibility of representing God's righteousness (Isaiah 42:6). It is through them that God used
to demonstrate His goodness before the world.

For that responsibility, they are blessed materialistically, as a show of how God can bless nations who trust and obey Him. However, they are more severely punished if they disobey Him (Deuteronomy 28).

Now recall how unflattering their history is in scripture.... they've failed in that responsibility far more than they did in bearing it faithfully (Psalms 106 & Romans 2:17-24).

The Jews were never chosen because they were better in terms of numbers or worth, in fact, He had said they're a "Stiff-necked people", but God simply chose them to affect His will (Deuteronomy 7:7-9, 9:6-18, & Romans 9:16).

Arguably, God chose the least of the people-group to demonstrate His grace, meaning: undeserved kindness.

ON THE JEWS (PART II): ARE THE ASHKENAZI, KHAZARS?

The controversy began with Shlomo Sand with his book, "Inventing the Jewish People" (2009) in which he claimed, through DNA research, that the Ashkenazi which the majority of the worlds Jewry are really descendents of the Khazars, a Turkic people who've converted to Judaism and moved from the kingdom of Khazaria to Eastern and Central Europe.

This presented a number of problems, not only because it contradicted common understanding that the Jews from the maternal standpoint were from Europe, but also brought an excuse for anti-semites to hate the Jews without... being rightly called, "Antisemitic".

While there is some credence to the narrative (after all, there were such a people of Khazaria), in my mind there are a host problems with the conclusion.

First of all, why were most of the Ashkenazi look more European than Khazarian?

Second, if they were Khazarian then there must be visible, cultural traits that wouldn't be original to Jews such as dress, practices, and customs, but nothing was noticed even by the proponents of of the narrative.

Third, according to the critics of the narrative, there were no records of the Khazarian conversion to Judaism.

The Truth: new DNA findings published in Nature Magazine (Oct. 8 2013), proved otherwise. Thus, the Ashkenazim retained their Jewishness.

ON THE JEWS (PART III): DOES THE JEWS RETAIN THE RIGHT TO THE PROMISED LAND?

Without a doubt, yes. In Genesis 17:7-8 it says that not only God’s covenant with Israel is eternal, for them to be His people, but also the land of Canaan to be forever theirs.

Despite the second covenant, there was an argument given by the fringes of the Orthodox Jewish community that claimed that in order for the Jews to rightfully own the promised land again, the Messiah must first come. Since that has yet to happen the Jews cannot legally return and build for them a sovereign state.

However, there is no scriptural precedent. God raised warrior prophets like Gideon and Samson in the book of Judges, but there were no examples of such deliverers leading Israel from captivity. Instead, Jewish exile ended by the Persian King Cyrus of whom the Lord stirred his heart to do (Ezra 1:1-4).

The last two objections may be used against the Israeli statehood. One is that the Jews remained disobedient or were not pious enough while the second is that because they have yet to accept Jesus as their Messiah. Neither views are supported in scripture.

If either one or both were the case then God would not allow the Jews return as He had when Israel had sinned against the Lord in the wilderness by not going up to enter into the promised land (Numbers 14). Yet, the opposite is true.

ISRAEL BECAME AN INDEPENDENT NATION-STATE.

The Balfour Accord, or the Balfour Mandate of 1917 was granted to the Zionist Jews who concluded that the only place the Jews could find lasting peace and safety is to return to Israel. This Accord, given by the British Empire, is akin to Cyrus king of the Persian empire.

And so, immigration began, but so also persecution as the Arab residents resented Jewish immigration. Beginning in 1923, they began to commit acts of terrorism which included bombings, sniping, and mass murder.

This culminated in the 1948 war for independence when the British decided to leave and the Jews declared statehood. Arab insurgents along with five Arab armies from their respective states waged an all out war against the Jews but in the end, the Jews emerged the victor.

After 1,878 years in exile, the Jews not only returned to the land of promise but became a sovereign state. Many more wars were fought for its survival (i.e.: the Yom Kippur War 1973) but the Jewish state remained to this day.
