This so-called "question" pretends that Jehovah and Jesus are the same person. While Trinitarians love to regurgitate philosophy, Greek, and quotes from other Babylon-loving Trinitarians, by contrast Jehovah's Witnesses believe that the Scriptures alone quite plainly demonstrate that Jesus and the Almighty are separate distinct persons, and the Almighty created Jesus as His firstborn son.
(Colossians 1:15) the firstborn of all creation
(Mark 10:18) Jesus said to him: 'Why do you call me good? Nobody is good, except one, God.
(Revelation 3:14) the Amen says, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation by God
(Philippians 2:5-6) Christ Jesus, who, although he was existing in God's form, gave no consideration to a seizure, namely, that he should be equal to God
(John 8:42) Neither have I come of my own initiative at all, but that One sent me forth
(John 12:49) I have not spoken out of my own impulse, but the Father himself who sent me has given me a commandment as to what to tell and what to speak
(John 14:28) I am going my way to the Father, because the Father is greater than I am
(1 Corinthians 15:28) But when all things will have been subjected to him, then the Son himself will also subject himself to the One who subjected all things to him
(Matthew 20:23) this sitting down at my right hand and at my left is not mine to give, but it belongs to those for whom it has been prepared by my Father
(1 Corinthians 11:3) I want you to know that the head of every man is the Christ; ...in turn the head of the Christ is God
(John 20:17) I am ascending to my Father and your Father and to my God and your God.
(Deuteronomy 6:4) Jehovah our God is one Jehovah
(1 Corinthians 8:4-6) There is no God but one. For even though there are those who are called "gods," whether in heaven or on earth, just as there are many "gods" and many "lords," there is actually to us one God the Father, out of whom all things are, and we for him

Did you mean to say "they're" the chosen ones?
And I can't do much for your erroneous statement about the death of Jesus.
It is a fact that the Jews did not kill him.
But don't let facts get in the way of a good story...you can read the link below and learn, or you can continue to live in a world of perpetual ignorance.
By the way, Jesus taught forgiveness.
He would have forgiven the Romans for killing him.
Unlike your suggested question, which borders on hate.
Maybe you could take a tip from Jesus?

Yes but God forgives our mistakes. Jesus died on the cross so that we could be forgiven our sins. Most Jews do not believe that Jesus was the Messiah.
The Bible tells us why the Jews are the chosen people. God told Abraham that his descendants were the chosen ones. Abraham's descendants are known to us today as Jews.

They believe they are the chosen ones because in the Old Testament, God tells them that.
However, depsite all of the fulfilled prophesies, they have rejected their Messiah, so I'm not quite sure if they're still considered the chosen one's in God's eyes. Except of the Jews for Jesus.
God bless!
PS: I have personally have no opinion on whether or not Jews are still the chosen ones. I'm honestly not sure.

God said so. By the way, the Romans killed Jesus. Wouldn't it be strange if the Jews executed Jesus the Roman way, with a crucifix?

Beacuse they are. Even though they are cursed by God to have a long-drawn conflict with the Muslims, they are nonetheless still protected by God, because 'He first loved them'. Haven't you noticed? Any country that dared attack Israel (the Jews' country) is automatically dealt with. In the 11 day war that created Israel in 1948, God was with them all the time. He did not forsake them. No other war in history ended in such a short period, with a declaration of absolute victory. Could all these be the mere by-product of whimsical fate? No! Only God can create such concidences.

In spite of the fact that Jesus was not accepted by His own people. They are and always will be God's chosen people.

Because they still are. The Jews did not kill Jesus, our own sins killed Him. The good news is this, Jesus is ALIVE!

There are two covenants.
The Old made by God.
The New made by God.
God will never break His covenants.
He is doing the new now. When the new is over, Christians gone to heaven.
He will turn back to the old to fulfill it.
