Hello everyone,
I am a Christian, no saying "oh no not another one" ok!
I am looking at who Jesus was and bible prophecies about Him and I'm trying to understand why most Jewish people don't accept Him as their Messiah.
There are many bible prophecies about Him which came true, but... I found out this morning that the "Jewish Bible is commonly called the Tanakh, an acronym for Torah, Neviim, Ketuvim--the three divisions of the text. These divisions are different from those in Christian Bibles. Most importantly, the interpretation of the material in common with Christians differs". I got this from somewhere else this morning, basically a website forum where you cannot answer answers to your questions... very strange.
So my question is this, if the bible prophecies Jesus (Immanuel) coming and all the prophecies from Isaiah to Micah, Ezra, and others predict His coming, His life, death and resurrection, and all of these prophecies happened, even if you don't believe in the bible, why do Jewish not believe in Him?
If you only use the books in the Jewish bible and they don't mention Jesus, (I'm assuming they don't at this point as I have never read them) but there is historical proof that Jesus existed, then it's worth looking into.
I'm not assuming that Jewish scholars, Rabbi's and others have not done this, but I'm just interested.
All other religions have their god's, but Christians worship the Jewish God, and I fully believe in Him, but I also believe that without Jesus who I believe is the Messiah that Jewish people are waiting for, we have no salvation.
The other thing is that the Bible prophecies concerning Israel: returning to their own land given to them by God Himself, vegetation growing in the desert, using your own currency again, speaking Hebrew, etc, have all come true and this concerns the end of the gentile age and the time of Israel again when Jesus returns to take His own, (the Rapture) prior to the tribulation.
Other prophecies regarding events in the middle east are also happening, which to me is more proof that the bible is correct in it's predictions.
I would like to know what anyone thinks to all this.
I'm sorry if all this has been asked before, but I would like to hear your opinion no matter how much it differs from mine because I want to learn.
Thank you.
