The Jews were and still are, in my opinion, the chosen people. At this point in time, though, the Gentiles have outnumbered them to a great extent.
The “King of the Jews (I.N.R.I,( Jesus of Nazareth, King of Jews is biblical. Written in Hebrew, Greek and Latin.....hope I’m right there.
Remember, in one of the Gospel readings someone objects to that moniker by saying “He says he is the King of the Jews.)
It was the wise men in Matthew 2 that called Him the “king of the Jews”. You don’t believe Jesus was the ruler prophesied in MICAH 5.2?
