And you sir are unable to recognize that you are projecting your ignorance of history with this statement, including your own cultural and political drive.
Without historical or literary knowledge you do not know that biblical scholars have known for a long time now there are four passages in Isaiah, written in Hebrew, that are clearly speaking about the servant as Israel. The suffering servant is Israel.
Prior to Christianity, Jewish people did not think the passage was about a messiah. The term messiah is not even mentioned. The advent of Christianity brought the notion of a suffering messiah that would die and be raised from the dead. It is not traditional Judaism.
