According to the Bible not only was Israel NOT God's only chosen people they weren't even first in line.
Isaiah
19:21
And the LORD shall be known to Egypt, and the Egyptians shall know the LORD in that day, and shall do sacrifice and oblation; yea, they shall vow a vow unto the LORD, and perform it.
19:22
And the LORD shall smite Egypt: he shall smite and heal it: and they shall return even to the LORD, and he shall be intreated of them, and shall heal them.
19:23
In that day shall there be a highway out of Egypt to Assyria, and the Assyrian shall come into Egypt, and the Egyptian into Assyria, and the Egyptians shall serve with the Assyrians.
19:24
In that day shall Israel be the third with Egypt and with Assyria, even a blessing in the midst of the land
This turns everything totally upside down for me. Bu it confirms the idea that God is not a respecter of persons and that Israel has truly usurped her position and supplanted people who were before her even in God's eyes.
Why do preachers encourage us to read the Bible when they have no idea what is in it.
