In the books of Moses, they DID have sacrifices for the atonement of sins. These sacrifices were animal and yes there was blood. I happen to be Christian, and Christians believe this was a fore-shadowing to the crucifixion of Jesus. I am unsure of what a Jew for Jesus is, but to answer your question, I believe there were blood sacrifices.

Congratulations again, for accepting Jesus. No, Moses was not wrong nor was Isaiah. Yes, I have' the Blood Atonement 'This is such a complexity , the more you research the deeper it goes.Just, this past Sunday at church , we were talking about Moses. What I realized, in the days of Moses God had to do a physical thing 'the ark ' to save people and Jesus had to do a spiritual thing to save us., I consider Jesus to be' the Second ark '.Man had to have so much saving.Which humbles me awesomely so to realize how much God actually loves us,

I think that the requirement is very clear given in the New Testament. There is for remission without the shedding of Blood
Hebrews 9:22
And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission.
Sin carries a heavy burden, I don't think it would be right for anyone to make light of it by saying that blood sacrifice is not required. I am sure if there had been any other way God would have used it instead of the cross.... Jim

Blood is the weakest type of atonement mentioned in the Bible. Sincere prayer and repentence is #1.
You should try being a Jew4Moses.

David,
You are a Christian. Stop this evil and deceptive form of missionizing. It degrades Christianity.

. It is, by definition, impossible for it to be "jewish" to believe in jesus. "Jewish" is, by defintion, what jews have historically and contemporarily believe. Since in neither scenario do we find "believing in jesus", then we must clearly realize that belief in jesus is not something "jewish". You can call it "biblical" (and still be wrong), but certainly not "jewish".
. On the side, the subject of Isaiah 53 is promised a "long life" and "seed" (i.e. physical children). Clearly this isn't about jesus.
. And Isaiah 7 is clearly not messianic if you read the whole chapter. and "alma" doesn't mean virgin either. You'd know that if you spoke hebrew (I guess it wasn't part of your "extensive jewish upbringing", huh?)
. On the side, Isaiah 9 can't be about jesus since, according to christianity, he's the "son" not the "father" (as the verse states). Nor did he have control of the government (to the contrary, the roman government killed him). And he certainly did not establish "endless peace".

oh, and lastly, I've decided that you truly epitomize everything I find intensely intellectually unsatisfying about christianity. (And you clearly do not understand hebrew.)

Where did you get the blood sacrifice from? I am Orthodox and have never heard of such thing. You don't have to die to atone. BTW, don't believe in Jesus if you're Jewish. Christians are one thing but Jews are another.

Moses did what God told him to Moses was a good man he was not wrong. God sacrificed his son for the attonement of all mankind. Isaiah and Moses did not lie

First, let me say thank you for being a child of Israel who has accepted Christ. You have such a blessing that I as a gentile would not understand fully.
It is through you that the world will be reconciled back to Jesus. Your people's conversion is one of the last signs before the return of Christ.
Second, the subject you mention is also covered in the NT.
Heb 9
6Now when these things were thus ordained, the priests went always into the first tabernacle, accomplishing the service of God.
7But into the second went the high priest alone once every year, not without blood, which he offered for himself, and for the errors of the people:
8The Holy Ghost this signifying, that the way into the holiest of all was not yet made manifest, while as the first tabernacle was yet standing:
9Which was a figure for the time then present, in which were offered both gifts and sacrifices, that could not make him that did the service perfect, as pertaining to the conscience;
10Which stood only in meats and drinks, and divers washings, and carnal ordinances, imposed on them until the time of reformation.
11But Christ being come an high priest of good things to come, by a greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this building;
12Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood he entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us.
13For if the blood of bulls and of goats, and the ashes of an heifer sprinkling the unclean, sanctifieth to the purifying of the flesh:
14How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?
15And for this cause he is the mediator of the new testament, that by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions that were under the first testament, they which are called might receive the promise of eternal inheritance.
16For where a testament is, there must also of necessity be the death of the testator.
17For a testament is of force after men are dead: otherwise it is of no strength at all while the testator liveth.
18Whereupon neither the first testament was dedicated without blood.
19For when Moses had spoken every precept to all the people according to the law, he took the blood of calves and of goats, with water, and scarlet wool, and hyssop, and sprinkled both the book, and all the people,
20Saying, This is the blood of the testament which God hath enjoined unto you.
21Moreover he sprinkled with blood both the tabernacle, and all the vessels of the ministry.
22And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission.
23It was therefore necessary that the patterns of things in the heavens should be purified with these; but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these.
24For Christ is not entered into the holy places made with hands, which are the figures of the true; but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us:
25Nor yet that he should offer himself often, as the high priest entereth into the holy place every year with blood of others;
26For then must he often have suffered since the foundation of the world: but now once in the end of the world hath he appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself.
27And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:
28So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation.
