Bs"d Micha 5:2-9; "But thou Bethlehem Ephratah, though thou be little among the thousands of Judah, yet out of thee shall he come forth unto me that is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth have been from of old, from everlasting. Therefore will he give them up, until the time that she...

Bs"d Isaiah 9:2-7 "2 The people who walked in darkness have seen a great light; those who dwelt in a land of deep darkness, on them has light shined. 3 Thou hast multiplied the nation, thou hast increased its joy; they rejoice before thee as with joy at the harvest, as men rejoice when they...

Bs"d Even in the New Testament there is NOT ONE SINGLE WITNESS of his resurrection. No man saw him get up from the grave and walk away. Oh, but he appeared to his disciples. Well, in that case, can you explain to me why nobody recognized him? Look in Luke 24:13-35. This speaks about the men...

Bs"d Out of the top of my head I can come up with about 6 messianic prophecies.

Bs"d No, I'm not saying that. The whole JC thing might have happened. I'm just saying that the whole messiah thing was never a big deal in Judaism. No, the Jews never accepted him as the messiah, with maybe a handful exceptions. It were the non-Jews who started Christianity. Also the...

Bs"d It is very obvious when you read the plain text of Isaiah 53, that it does not speak about the messiah, but about Israel. For the finer details look here: Isaiah 53 Yes.

Bs"d What rabbinical writings are you talking about?

Bs"d Yes. Zacheriah 9:9-10; "Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion; shout, O daughter of Jerusalem: behold, thy King cometh unto thee: he is just, and having salvation; lowly, and riding upon an ass, and upon a colt the foal of an ass. And I will cut off the chariot from Ephraim, and the...

Bs"d There are no two comings of the messiah. Only one. Look here in chapter 3: Notestament Children are punished for the sins of the fathers, unto the third and fourth generation. That means that descendants who come thousands of years later are not punished for the sins of forefathers...
