<p>Chosenness applies not only to the sacrifices we bring (מבחר נדריכם) and the <em>mitzvot</em> we do מצוות מן המובחר)). <em>Yisrael</em> itself was chosen. However once chosen, chosenness needs to be preserved or it can be lost. <em>Shmirat hamitzvot</em> preserves Jewish chosenness, Jewish sanctity.</p><p><a href='https://lapininternational-my.sharepoint.com/:b:/p/david/IQC5k8PZ_SpRRraWPjZNoU0pAUxXrp90N25IwEJvkGQTT6o?e=JjPYk4'>Source Sheet</a></p>
