As we know the disciples of Jesus were Jew, by reading this I wonder.. What was their problem?
Therefore I say unto you (Jews), The Kingdom of God shall be taken away from you (Jews), and shall be given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof.
Matthew 21: 45
Therefore I say unto you (Jews), The Kingdom of God shall be And he (Jesus) saith unto them (the disciples). Why are ye fearful, O Ye Of Little Faith?
Matthew 8. 26
AND (JESUS) said unto him (Peter) O Thou of Little Faith...
Matthew 14:31
... he (Jesus) said unto them (the disciples), O Ye Of Little Faith, why reason among yourselves ...
Matthew 16: 8
And he (Jesus) said unto them (his disciples). Where Is Your Faith?
Luke 8: 25
... O Faithless And Perverse Generation, how long shall I
be with you, how long shall I bear with you?
Luke 9: 41

There's a lot going on here...Jesus didn't just "pick" on his disciples all the time. First of all, one has to remember that these were uneducated people...they were fishermen of all things. That's why Jesus used parables to teach them and not catechism classes!
1. Jesus was telling the Jews that the Kingdom of God was to be given to ALL who had earned it. See, the Jews had been working under the impression that if they were Jewish, but rotten people, they'd still make it to Heaven because they were Jewish. Here Jesus tells them that they have to EARN their way into Heaven, and that they'll have competition from the Gentiles.
2-6. If you were presented with such a person as Jesus...wouldn't you have questions? I do! And I haven't ever met the man! I have problems with faith and believing blindly! Obviously so did the disciples. I find no fault within them...they're just being human. However, Jesus expects us to believe in Him like children...without questioning. (Hard to do). That's just all He's explaining to the disciples over and over because they asked questions.
For example, when He said "I will tear this temple down and re-build it in three days" the disciples asked "How can you do that? This temple was built after many years?" Jesus rebuked them for not understanding. However, Jesus was speaking about the Faith, not the physical temple. The disciples however, took him literally.
Because they were not educated enough to understand allegory and the likes, they ended up asking a lot of questions and yes, at times they made Jesus feel frustrated.

"therefore I say unto you (Jews), the dominion of God will be taken faraway from you (Jews), and would receive to a rustic bringing forth the end result thereof. Matthew 21: 40 5" at the same time as the jews received Israel decrease back from the arabs in 1943? flowers began to advance more effective fruitfull and speedier then any time less than yet another international locations rule.

its a problem in the context ,,jesus quoted the prophets, and was a rabbi and prophet like his cousin John, and he ws trying to remind the jews about their commitment to the God of Abraham every generation of Jews became cooler towards God till he lost Patience and sent a new voice calling them to return to him and he cursed them as slaves and as chattels of other nations,, and so when he withdraws his blessings on a land it sinks and the surrounding folk overcome them and so it was during the time ofthe Roman occupation of the Middle east some including the King of the Jews Herod followed the Romans in their worship of idols and so God raised a Prophet and took his blessings from the king and the land

Because just like today's America. Some people claimed to be Christians, but they do alot of sins (lots of affairs, lots of divorces, lots of sexual immorality, lots of evil things, etc - same as ol' days Jews)... always when they got it easy in life and forget about God, morality, ethics, etc... on top of it the Jews practiced withcrafts and made to themselves idols and worship the those spirits. So God taught them lessons (or actually they are self-distruct and God had to save them), they repented, then several centuries later when God blessed them abundantly for their faihfulness, they did it again, they forgot...and they became sinful again.... and God had to teach them a lesson again... so the cycle keeps on rolling. Until today.... it keeps rolling. I'm afraid if we don't do something to our society that God might exercise His tough love again.
Romans 6:23
For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

God is not at all annoyed with the Jews. This is an anti - semitic myth spread by certain members of the Church. Why do Christians feel that they need to bash other religions in order to be good Christians. Practice your religion, and let othes practice their religions in peace!

The Jews are the chosen people always. It has upset ted God through the breaking of the covenant numerous times in the old testament. The Love of God to continue to love his chosen through it all is a testament of the love he has for all mankind and will always be with us as long as we believe in God and his son.

They rejected His Son and that they did not believe that He has risen yet. Jesus died for the world and that God still loves the Jews.
