Imaginary nonsense.
Acts 2---5 Now there were staying in Jerusalem God-fearing Jews from every nation under heaven. 6 When they heard this sound, a crowd came together in bewilderment, because each one heard their own language being spoken. 7 Utterly amazed, they asked: “Aren’t all these who are speaking Galileans? 8 Then how is it that each of us hears them in our native language? 9 Parthians, Medes and Elamites; residents of Mesopotamia, Judea and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia, Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt and the parts of Libya near Cyrene; visitors from Rome 11 both Jews and converts to Judaism); Cretans and Arabs—we hear them declaring the wonders of God in our own tongues!”
Eze 39:25 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Now will I bring again the captivity of Jacob, and have mercy upon the whole house of Israel, and will be jealous for my holy name;

Eze 39:27 When I have brought them again from the people, and gathered them out of their enemies' lands, and am sanctified in them in the sight of many nations;

Eze 39:29 Neither will I hide my face any more from them: for I have poured out my spirit upon the house of Israel, saith the Lord GOD.

The idea of ‘chosen people’ was never about favoritism it was about function. If God is wholeness, then someone had to carry the thread of covenant first so the rest of humanity could see it. Being chosen didn’t mean being better; it meant being held to higher accountability. That’s why the Hebrew scriptures often show Israel judged more harshly than the nations around them.
Why the Jews? Because they were small, vulnerable, and least likely to survive on their own. Choosing them made it clear it wasn’t about human power but divine promise. That lineage carried the story forward until it birthed Jesus, who widened the covenant to all nations.
So the real truth is: chosen doesn’t mean ‘exclusive,’ it means ‘entrusted first.’ God’s love never had favorites it had a starting point

It's like the old covenant. Once the new covenant had been ushered in, the old covenant had served its function, was no longer needed and was retired.
Likewise, once spiritual circumcision arrived, physical circumcision had served its function, was no longer needed and was retired.
Once grace and truth arrived, the law had served it function, was no longer needed and was retired.
Once God's holy super-nation arrived at Pentecost, the physical nation had served its function, was no longer needed and was retired.
Jews weren't replaced; they were brought into something better.
