	Chosenness, The Chosen People, Favoritism, Jewish Superiority - The Peace Encyclopedia
		Kaplan advocated dropping chosenness for two reasons: to undercut accusations of the sort made by Shaw that the Chosen People idea was the model for racist ideologies, and because it went against modern thinking to see the Jews as a divinely chosen people.
		Chosenness is so unconnected to any notion of race that Jews believe that the Messiah himself will descend from Ruth, a nonJewish woman who converted to Judaism.

	The Chosen People
		Therefore, the concept of “the chosen people” is widely denounced by Americans of “Jewish descent” or “secular Jews” who fear that such a concept is undemocratic, does not fit our American values and must be ignored or in fact abolished.
		That is true because our enemies have for years enjoyed using the “chosen people” concept as a means of denouncing us and justifying their crimes.
		Then there is one more manner in which we are “the chosen.” Not in a biological sense but in a cultural sense we are “the chosen.” Jews by choice who came to us in their later years are included in that great Jewish enterprise known as Jewish inventiveness and intelligence.

	SparkNotes: The Chosen: Context
		The Chosen, Potok’s first novel, is part of a larger tradition of twentieth-century Jewish-American literature, which includes the authors Abraham Cahan, Henry Roth, Bernard Malamud, Saul Bellow, Philip Roth, and Cynthia Ozick.

		The first third of the novel unfolds during the Allied offensive in World War II, the middle third deals with the American Jewish community’s response to the Holocaust, and the final third is concerned with the Zionist movement to create a Jewish state in Palestine.

		They’ve chosen instead to live in a Crichton-esque science fiction fantasy in which real science has no standing and human actions have no tragic, irreversible, and global ecological consequences.
		The Republican Party has chosen to deny social, ecological, cultural, religious, and economic realities which are unavoidably complicated, complex, diverse, ironic, and paradoxical.

	The Chosen People
		The second reason we need not concern ourselves regarding the possible negative effect of the “chosen people” phrase is that Jew haters need no excuse to promote their murderous hopes and deeds.
		Obviously, we have for centuries been “chosen” for persecution and murder, both in Europe and in the Muslim countries.
		This is the consequence of being “chosen” either because persecution has made us aware that we must exceed to survive, or because we are indeed more intelligent and competent than anyone else or because both are true.
