Thank you for pointing that out as opposed to jumping to conclusions and all of that.
Yes, it is a counter-missionary site. It's purpose is to counter all the christian zionists that masquerade as "Messianics". Not that this topic has anything to do with the Poster's main posting but there are very few actual "Messianic Jews" because the ones who parade that title around are 99% of the time just christian zionists who maintain their triniartianism and paulinism while calling Jesus "Yeshua".

This. It is one Jewish organization's response to alternative interpretations of Jewish religious texts by other religions that also use those same texts as part of their sacred tradition. Your mileage will depend on your religious perspective. I assume that Joseph Smith needed an interpretation that would allow for a subsequent text like the Book of Mormon to be the final word for his faith, but I'm not Mormon and it is just an educated guess.
