What is it exactly that you don't understand?
It's very different than a nationality or a race.
If I'm not mistaken, the Jewish people are unique in this way. Not better, just unique as a "nation".
Look at the Hebrew bible. Most nations were formed first and then the people identified with the nation.
But the Jewish people were a "people" first, before they had a land or a nation.
Not sure if there is anything in history that can compare.
