There will be no more hunger or illness, and death will cease (Isaiah 25:8)
All of the dead will rise again (Isaiah 26:19)
The Jewish people will experience eternal joy and gladness (Isaiah 51:11)
He will be a messenger of peace (Isaiah 52:7)
Nations will end up recognizing the wrongs they did Israel (Isaiah 52:13-53:5)
For My House shall be called a house of prayer for all the nations (Isaiah 56:3-7)
The peoples of the world will turn to the Jews for spiritual guidance (Zechariah 8:23)
The ruined cities of Israel will be restored (Ezekiel 16:55)
Weapons of war will be destroyed (Ezekiel 39:9)
The Temple will be rebuilt (Ezekiel 40) resuming many of the suspended mitzvos
He will then perfect the entire world to serve God together, as it is written (Zephaniah 3:9)
Jews will know the Torah without Study (Jeremiah 31:33)
He will give you all the desires of your heart (Psalms 37:4)
He will take the barren land and make it abundant and fruitful (Isaiah 51:3, Amos 9:13-15, Ezekiel 36:29-30, Isaiah 11:6-9)"

Jesus obviously did not meet all of those requirements and thus is not a prothet according to Judaism.

certain, its a marginally meaningless epithet, isn't it? in accordance to Islam, some biblical characters were Muslims, along with Adam, and there have been many Muslims previous to Muhammad which aren't to any extent further named. You'l get some wind-dishevelled solutions to this question, yet what it as a rule comes right down to is Muslms claiming historic figures and characters in different peoples' scripture as their own. Its rather like how they prefer to declare that intellectuals and scientists switched over to the religion (yet you canot discover any connection with this of their autobiographies). Its the age-old trick of saying the great (and lifeless!) as your own for PR purposes. They do it with concepts also - operating example, they declare the popular multiverse and large bang theories as being foretold interior the Koran. that is often plausible to call people by using names even as the names were coined lengthy afterwards - certain greek philosophers were obviously wondering alongside countless modern philosophical strains along with Utilitarianism or Determinism yet in those situations you could obviously see it of their writings. Calling people by using the call of a faith before it existed in all fairness ridiculous by using evaluation because a faith encompasses many unrelated and disparate beliefs that are fantastically unlikely to face up even by coincidence, nevermind the actual shown actuality that Jesus, as depicted interior the Gospels, ought to under no circumstances be talked about as a Muslim. He turned right into a non secular Jew.

They rejected Him, that's how Gentiles now have a chance to be saved
They gave Him as a sacrifice on the cross for our sins without knowing it.
However some of the Jews that rejected Him recieved His Spirit after His death

that he was just some guy that lived in Israel 2,000 years ago.
Not a Prophet or looked at in any high regard.
Ps its not as much as we rejected him as he did not meet the qualifications to be the Messiah
