The Jews were chosen, "because he loved your fathers, therefore he chose their descendants" (Deuteronomy 4:37). God said: "Understand that the LORD your God is not giving you this good land to possess because of your righteousness, for you are a stiff-necked people" (9:6).Nothing had changed centuries later, when they crucified God's Son, Jesus Christ (Acts 7:51).However, by working through one special people, God was able to draw attention to His character and purpose with the earth. He said to Moses: "For this purpose I have raised you up, that I may show my power in you, and that my name may be declared in all the earth" (Exodus 9:6).This was vitally important, for God later said: "But truly, as I live, all the earth shall be filled with the glory of the Lord" (Numbers 14:21). This wonderful promise will be fulfilled after Jesus Christ returns to the earth.</blockquote>
