I'd say that it's the other way around. You've learned biblical apologetics. I learned that as well as a believer. Eventually, once I had mastered the scriptures sufficiently, I could see that the apologetics were specious argumentation.
According to Christianity, Jesus had no human father...
Whatever your background, there appears to have been an absence of good teaching!
Below is an explanation of how Jesus does fulfil prophecy as the son of David. The mistake that many commentators make when looking at Matthew and Luke is to miss the connection between the two.
The Genealogies...
My present belief is that the description of Jesus and the description of the Messiah in the Old Testament.
Should that matter? Most Jews do not. Does that matter to you?
Why does that need explaining? What would need explaining is not the ways that the two accounts might overlap, but the...
In Aish.com there is a concise summary of the key beliefs held by (certain) Jews.
The opening paragraph says this: 'The Messiah will become the greatest prophet in history, second only to Moses. (Targum - Isaiah 11:2; Maimonides -Teshuva 9:20)'

Do you really think that God will condemn all those of these generations who can't sacrifice without a plan for us?

I was wondering why in the ^above^ post there is no mention of:
Daniel 9 vs 25,26 ?
Doesn't Mashiach [Moshiachah] apply exclusively to the coming Messiah ?
I respect your personal view; however, it is flawed for a number of reasons. First of all, Jewish doctrine states that God punished righteous people in this world so as to have them bypass the temporary pains of "hell" in the Afterlife. When evil seems to flourish in this world, they flourish...
