Yeah, that’s what I thought. You have no idea what you’re talking about. That’s not remotely what “chosen” means in the context of Judaism. These are your oppression fantasies.
"Chosen" within the context of Judaism refers to a particular covenant between God and the Jewish people. It is the belief that God has chosen Jewish people for a particular purpose. "Chosen" refers to specificity and not superiority. Nowhere in the Torah or the Talmud will you find anything that backs a belief in the latter. Far from being a license for special privilege, it actually entailed additional responsibilities not only toward God but to our fellow human beings.
If you had done even the slightest bit of research into the subject, you'd know this. It's not secret knowledge.
Can you explain to the class what you think “chosen” means in the context of Judaism? Looking forward to your response, thanks.
