}does it mean the Jews are no longer the chosen people of the Creator of the Universe?

Excuse me for butting in, but while you cite a few examples of word usage, where does it say JEWS are exclusively THE "chosen people of the Creator of the Universe...? That appears to be your point.

The Jews are the chosen people -- but we gentiles can be grafted in. I do apologize to all that we white people weren't chosen. It isn't my fault. Please take any problems up with the Creator of the Universe. I'm just a poor gentile mutt that hopes to be grafted in. Unfortunately our Lord is not black, hispanic nor white -- He decided to be a Jew -- King of the Jews, King of Kings, The Lion of Juda, the Prince of Peace and the One who is coming back. He isn't from Michigan, He isn't from the Westcoast or the East -- He isn't even a citizen of the United States -- DAMMIT, why wouldn't he be?

Rom 11:17 And if some of the branches be broken off, and thou, being a wild olive tree, wert graffed in among them, and with them partakest of the root and fatness of the olive tree;

Rom 11:19 Thou wilt say then, The branches were broken off, that I might be graffed in.

Rom 11:23 And they also, if they abide not still in unbelief, shall be graffed in: for God is able to graff them in again.

Rom 11:24 For if thou wert cut out of the olive tree which is wild by nature, and wert graffed contrary to nature into a good olive tree: how much more shall these, which be the natural [branches], be graffed into their own olive tree?
