[1010RD]

Rabbi and teaching in synagogues are contextual to the time.

Do you believe Jesus is God, the Son of God or the Messiah?

That he died and was resurrected in payment of your sins?

Are these Jewish concepts?

[SuziQ]

Yes, Jesus is the Savior, the Son of God, and by His death and resurrection, He redeemed us, and made it possible for us to spend eternity with Him, if we live according to His Word. That doesn't mean he wasn't Jewish. The Old Testament is full of prophecy about a Redeemer. They were waiting for a Messiah. If there were no concept of redemption, why would they NEED a Messiah?

Most Jews rejected Jesus, because they had come to anticipate a Messiah who would liberate them from the yoke of oppression, be it the Babylonians, or the Romans, later. They'd gotten away from the notion of spiritual bondage, and the need for liberation from it.
