Jews say they are the chosen people… I wonder who discovered that😂

Every group thinks they're special, nothing unusual there. Chosen people however refers to bring chosen to receive the law, so it's a recognition of responsibility, not privilege. Many Christians believe that the chosen people designation passed from the Jews to them. I wonder who came up with that one.

Not that they even have much to do with the ancient Israelites. Today's Ashkenazi Jews probably have about as much Israelite ancestry as any other population from Central Europe.

@BohemianBabe The Khazar theory was debunked.

@LeopoldBloom I wasn't referring to that. I mean that the ancient Israelis were absorbed into various local populations through mixing. Ashkenazi Jews are basically Germans who practiced Judaism instead of Christianity. Being German, I probably have just as much Ancient Israelite DNA as any Ashkenazi Jew. Same goes for the Spaniards and the Sephardi Jews.
