A friend and I watched a documentary the other night and a jewish woman (who studies Judiism) and no where was she taught anything about Jesus. Why? Wasn't Jesus born Jewish?

They don't believe in him. They are still waiting for Messiah.

Yes Jesus was Jewish, and He is God in the Flesh.
The Jews were told of the Messiah (Yeshua) of Israel by the prophets. He came unto His own and they received Him not.
It was always to the Jew first, then the Gentile.
Yeshua is also called Wonderful Counselor and Mighty God, Lord, The Holy One of Israel, Ancient of Days, Most High, and The Eternal God.
Yeshua fulfilled every prophecy intended to be fulfilled at His first coming. The rest He will fulfill when He returns in glory.
The Jews only study the Torah, the first 5 books of Tanakh (Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy) wherein God makes known His standards for righteousness.
They normally see the New Testament as a forbidden, anti-Semitic book but its not. The NT was is a Jewish book, by Jews, mostly about Jews and for Jews as well as the Gentiles.
This is my opinion.

I think it is not logical that the Old Testament has prophecies about jews not believing the Messiah! Is it possible that prophets (alla of them were jews) would make prophecies of that kind? If it was so, wouldn't they try to avoid this? They do not teach Jesus' teachings because they are beyond judaism. He was a jew but that does not mean that they should have accepted his teachings...He is not a representative of judaism...

Jesus was just one of many, many rabbis teaching several versions of Judaism. He was very insignificant and there are no writings about him. It is blasphemy for a Jew to worship any human being made into a god. We will know the messiah because he will be King (not divine) of Israel when there is peace, justice and goodness on earth for all humanity.

Jews have been taught from the beggining of time that a messiah will come. (ther are hundreds of prophesys in the old testament all about Jesus INCLUDING THAT THE JEWS WILL NOT RECOGNIZE HIM. (his own people!) SO the fact that the jewess said nothing about jesus is becasue the BIble is true. They did not recognize the savior- Jesus christ. . Will you be like the jews? Accept Jesus and he will cleanse your soul of all sin. NO sin big or small is allowed in Heaven so the only way to see the kingdom is that Jewish carpenter, The son of GOd.

He was Jewish but he has nothing to do with our religion. He is not a prophet, messiah, or leader. He is as valuable to Judaism as David Blaine.

Judaism doesn't talk about him for the same reason the religion does not talk about Harry Potter. He is fiction, and not a figure in the history of our religion.

Millions of people are born Muslim. Why don't they teach you in Christian school about Muslims?

because jesus is not part of judaism and neither are his teachings.
