    Why Jews don't believe in Jesus

    I realized this hypothesis in 2015, however, there's a Jewish defense from 2005. I'll look into this carefully later. Psalm 110 - A Jewish Perspective

    Why Jews don't believe in Jesus

    The Christological mission of Jesus, which I left in response #146, is that the Jewish Jesus came to set an example. I am still on your first question #1 (The Messiah must be from David's line and from the tribe of Judah; Jesus was not.) and have left Jesus' response, which is actually also...

    Why Jews don't believe in Jesus

    God said to my Master: “Sit at my right hand until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet.” I am not referring to "adoni". This word is always used in the Scriptures to describe human masters and lords, but never God. Now, if David calls Him 'Master', how can He at the same time be His...

    Why Jews don't believe in Jesus

    Matthew 22:41-46 The Message (MSG) As the Pharisees were regrouping, Jesus caught them off balance with his own test question: “What do you think about the Christ? Whose son is he?” They said, “David’s son.” Jesus replied, “Well, if the Christ is David’s son, how do you explain that David, under...

    Why Jews don't believe in Jesus

    Acts 9:31 NVI Then the church throughout (KATHÁ HOLÓS > CATHOLICS>UNIVERSAM in Latin) Judea, Galilee and Samaria enjoyed a time of peace and was strengthened. Living in the fear of the Lord and encouraged by the Holy Spirit, it increased in numbers. Acts 21:20 NVI When they heard this, they...

    Why Jews don't believe in Jesus

    Jesus quotes Psalm 82:6, reminding the Jews that the Law refers to ordinary men - though men of authority and prestige - as "gods." Jesus' purpose is this: you accuse me of blasphemy because of my use of the title "son of God"; but your own Scripture uses this same term for leaders in general. (...

    Cain the Wanderer

    I have no doubts regarding this thesis, as Cain, being the firstborn and therefore a proto-priest, adhered to the rules set by God by offering, due to his arduous labor, fruits of the cursed ground. In contrast, Abel, having departed from the cursed ground, presented an offering that was...

    The archaeological and historical evidence of the early history of the Jews before 600 BCE.

    For those who do not believe in the Torah as a historical source, a hypothesis that can be formulated from the article is that the narrative of the Exodus, while not supported by tangible archaeological evidence of a mass event, may have roots in real historical events, such as the expulsion of...

    The archaeological and historical evidence of the early history of the Jews before 600 BCE.

    Your technical and pertinent analysis is indeed the solid foundation for any structured discussion; I do not debate this. Although the historical conjecture I posted may initially seem hypothetical, it has the potential to evolve into substantiated truths through evidence and rigorous analysis...

    The archaeological and historical evidence of the early history of the Jews before 600 BCE.

    The Exodus, as described in the Hebrew Bible, is a central event in Israel’s origin. However, its historicity has been a subject of debate among scholars. Merneptah Stele: Dating to around 1219 BCE, the Merneptah Stele is the oldest extrabiblical record mentioning a group called Israel. The...

    The Garden of Eden

    You are addressing the complexity of human experience, particularly with regard to suffering and understanding the divine. The metaphor of birth to describe death is a powerful way to illustrate the radical transition and transformation that occurs. You highlighted a crucial point about the...

    Why Jews don't believe in Jesus

    The christological mission of Jesus is clearly focused on the people of Israel who were not fully aware of the law and needed guidance and care. 1. Matthew 2:6 - This verse cites a prophecy about a leader being born in Bethlehem who will shepherd the people of Israel. The reference to Jesus as...

    Myself Vs Me

    We emerge pure from God and will return to Him pure, but not all; only those who, upon glimpsing within themselves a faint glimmer of the divine light, have resolved to amplify it throughout their existence.

    The Garden of Eden

    Job 40:8 NVI “Would you discredit my justice? Would you condemn me to justify yourself? (titsedaq) "What is the difference between a righteous person, such as Job (ve-yashar וְיָשָׁר) Job 1:1, and a just person (ytsedaq), which he defends throughout the book? The Jewish concept of a just...

    Why Jews don't believe in Jesus

    "Who, though He existed in the form of God, did not regard equality with God as something to be grasped." Philippians 2:6 In the context of Philippi, a city experiencing a shift from Greek to Roman religious practices, this verse might have been understood in light of the evolving religious...

    Myself Vs Me

    In Aristotelian terms, the conflict between "Myself" and "Me" can be seen as a struggle between actuality and potentiality. "Myself" represents the actual state of the human mind, engaged in worldly pursuits and practical concerns. "Me," on the other hand, embodies the potential for spiritual...

    What was Jesus reading?

    No, I only use the KJV for convenience. I could have used the original Catholic Douay-Rheims Bible (1582 & 1610). The KJV is to Protestants what the Patriarchal Edition of the Byzantine Text (1904) is to the Ecumenical Patriarchate of Constantinople. Beginning with Moses and all the Prophets...
