Are Jews God's chosen people?

Why do millions of Christians believe that Jews are God's chosen people and Israel is God's chosen land? Is it because the Bible has been captured by Zionist interests from the 1800s? Who was Cyrus Scofield and why does he matter? What is dispensationalism?

Have you heard of Cyrus Scofield?

More specifically, have you heard of the Scofield Reference Bible?

Stephen Sizer is a theologian and author with quite a lengthy biography and he joined me on my podcast to chat about the dangerous influence of Scofield (including who he was and who he worked with).
