I don't look at the Jews after Christ as believers. That doesn't negate the fact that the Old Testament, was handed down to the Apostles by our Jewish forefathers who looked forward to the day of redemption (Heb 11). The Church (including the Orthodox) has always accepted these as inspired.

Gentiles were grafted into the tree of Jewish believers; not the other way around. As far as I know, Christ is still a Jew.

Don't dodge the point; the Masoretic text was created AFTER Christ.

Can we or can we not have faith that the folks who transcribed the Hebrew scriptures in creating the Masoretic text did so accuratly? Especially given their anti-Christ bias?
