Here is a shortened version of a movie based on the dispute between Rambam...the Jewish scholar and a converted Jew named Christiani.
Now there is a definite Jewish slant to the film....but there are some very good points being made...that hold up to this day.

Jews look at the dogmatic form of Christianity as a religion and reject it...wisely. But the problem lies in there not being a true witness of Christ.

Both Judaism AND dogmatic Christianity leads to arrogance..as ALL religious pursuits do.

The Jews are so hung up on the "suffering servant" scriptures as being themselves. What is confusing to me is that Israel is considered both male and female (like the suffering servant being referred to as a "He") And another time spoken of as sisters (having to do with Jacob) in Isaiah or Ezekiel maybe? Have not finished watching yet. It's quite interesting. The only thing I remember hearing/reading of King James is that he was not a very humble guy?
I'll continue to watch :)

"Long in the tooth" :D
