Question from an unbelieving Jew...

For clarity, do you mean the Hebrew version or an English translation of it? I assume you mean a translation but checking to be sure.

Indeed!

 

In 1917, from the Copies in Synagogues, to personal copies, etc., there was only One Version available for the majority of the Yiddish world and those who follow the Yiddish belief system based off Abraham.   Since the introduction of technology and Google Search, we have access to multiple Versions of the Hebrew Torah/Tanakh in the Hebrew Language and also in translation format.   And when we compare those Modern Day Versions to the 1917 Version.  Only one is completely different in its translations.   The others are pretty much reading word for word like the most original, if the original copy, is based off the 1917 Version.

 

And oddly enough, the one who disagrees with the majority of us, is also using that specific Copy that does not match the 1917 Version.

Imagine that!

What is your point?

Just pointing out the differences in the current Versions of the Tanakh compared to the 1917 Version we all would be using now had it not been for technology and trying to translate the Tanakh differently.

How can I prove that Jesus was not the Messiah?

I just want to know who asked the above question on a Christian forum?

Not knowing the context it seems quite funny to me that anyone would ask a Christian to help them prove that Jesus is not the Messiah!

I assumed it wasn't me because you were talking as if I wasn't participating in the conversation. Turns out you're just rude.

I apologize if you actually felt that way!

You are indeed a vital part of the conversation.

Let's keep the discussion ... without the personal innuendos.

The question was asked on Quora Digest. Actually. People of all walks of life post there.

Q & A at Quora Digest in Messianic section frequented by Jews who do not believe in Jesus

Slibhin may feel as though I am singling her out as a Jewish unbeliever in Jesus. But I am not.

Whether or not she actually ignores / blocks my posts, I witness to Jewish people that Jesus is the Messiah

here and elsewhere. Using the Tanakh (the Jewish Bible).

My goal is to affirm this fact to equip the believers in their ability to reach out to Jewish people and to

strengthen their own faith in Jesus.

I really like your articles, much of the material is truth and relevant! It's my understanding that many Jews do believe in God (Jn 14:1), and though they do not believer in the Lord Jesus they will continue as "God's people," but not inherit the sonship which is in Christ, of which only Christians will partake for eternity. Israel will eventually believe in Jesus, but only after seeing Him in the Millennium; but it will be too late to partake in the sonship of Christ.

The Jeremiah 31:31 and Eze 36:24-27 prophecies involve Jews who believe in God but not in the Lord Jesus. This new and final Covenant between God and Israel will be what God is going to do with them.

This "New Covenant" cannot be the present and "everlasting covenant" of the Christian, because it is made between the Father and the Son, and not between God and man as before and will be made one more time (Covenant of Redemption - Heb 13:20, 21); and the Christians are recipients of it.

Well, there's only one Jew here and I ignore him completely. So there you go.

I am not Jewish.
