PECULIAR NATION WOMEN'S AND MEN'S TEE 1Peter 2:9

In 1 Peter 2:9 we are described as Peculiar People but what does that mean? Is it because we are "weirdos" or "abnormal" individuals. Now you describe yourself as such but God refer to us as Peculiar People as those who are set apart chosen as God very own so that we can show His goodness and mercy throughout the world.
