The Chosen explores Judaism s key defining concept and inquires why
it remains the central unspoken and explosive psychological,
historical, and theological problem at the heart of Jewish-Gentile
relations. Crisscrossing the twin cultural and theological divides
between Judaism, Christendom, and Islam, The Chosen explains how
the Jews, of all people, have come to represent at once the epitome
of both the good and the odious. Beker covers not only the great
stories of how the Jews came to be chosen and the Christian,
Muslim, and Nazi efforts to appropriate the title, but also the key
role "chosenness" plays in contemporary anti-Semitism and in the
current Middle East conflict over the Land of Israel and the chosen
city of Jerusalem.
