My lady, they are still waiting for the chosen one. I personally thought Michael Jordon arrived long ago.

Like everyone else, the Jews have a choice as to whether or not to accept Jesus as the Messiah. The Old Testament of the Bible addresses the Jews rejection. (Psalms 2:1-3;118:22; Isaiah 6:9,10;8:14;49:4;50:1-11)

It clearly states many times in the Bible that the Jews would not accept Jesus. It also states that He will strive to the end to bring the Jews to salvation. Most Jews today are still waiting for the Messiah to be born. Thank God He was born over 2000 years ago in Bethlehem and lived to be in his early 30's when he died on a cross for all of us and by believing this we can all be saved. All of us.

They were all Jews until Jesus hit the stage. The Jews just stayed Jews while the newbies became Christians.

The Jews believe that there is a series of signs or Prophecies to be fulfilled before the Messiah is revealead and that Jesus(PBUH*) did not fulfill all these signs. Therefore Jesus(PBUH*) is not the Messiah the Jews are looking for. The Messiah for the Jews is the Djjal(Anti Christ) who will rule from the false nation of Israel and then will be defeated and killed by Prophet Jesus(PBUH*) before the Day of Judgment.

Oh Hon, they do believe Jesus lived and died. They don`t believe he is the savior, which by the way is correct for them. Jesus is here to save the Gentile. The Jews are already God`s chosen people.
Did you not know that there are over 600 writings concerning Jesus and his time on earth, that have NOTHING to do with religion?
They did keep court records of who was crucified, and whose hands were cut off, and this punishment and that punishment as well as other court records. They also had census records and Genealogies. His miracles are recorded in other accounts of the times.

I think the Jews believe in Jesus but, not as the Son of God. They do not believe that He was anything more than a man.

1) God told them that they wouldn't believe.
2) They didn't understand that the Messiah, God, and the Redeemer would be the same person.
3) They were already prophesied as not believing in their own scriptures, and those prophecies came true.
I know that makes it seem obvious, as long as what I am saying is true, but that's really what's going on with all of that. They were told that they wouldn't believe, and they didn't and still; as a nation, do not.
They are prophesied to believe in Zechariah 12:10-14. Psalm 22, Isaiah 53.
They misunderstand their own scriptures. The Pharisees misunderstood their meaning, and Jesus was all over them about it. Oh what people miss!

At the time, Jesus wasn't a savior yet because he hadn't died at the cross, so at the time Judaism was the appropriate religion for him. Jews have the believe of Jesus being a prophet but not a savior. Basically, they don't believe that the true savior has arrived; and in Christianity, the savior hadn't arrived until after the death of Jesus so during his lifetime, it would only make sense for him to be Jewish.
I hope that I helped :)

It's not that they don't believe in him, they don't believe he was the Messiah that the Prophets had predicted whould save the Jews.
There are, however, some Jews who do believe. They call themselves Jews for Jesus.
