not really. most of what jesus said was taken from the teachings of the prominent jewish sages of his time. why would we follow jesus's religion, when everything he said he simply stole from our own sages and tried to pass off as his own ideas? jesus may have said that loving your neighbour is the essence of the law, but hillel the elder said the same thing a generation before jesus did, and hillel didn't claim to be a god either. who am i going to listen to, the philosopher or his plagiarist?

There is much wisdom contained in the Greek Scriptures. However, just about all of it is also contained in the Hebrew Scriptures or the Oral Law (Talmud). Therefore, there is no need for Jews to seek anything new in Christianity.

Jesus is considered by Jews to be an apostate and False Prophet, so probably not.

Yes. It is a reminder that we don't make humans into gods. Other cultures have done that throughout history. Our people know there is only One God and that He is always there for our support.
