Well, most of these arguments are just based on what the Jewish understanding of the Old Testament is vs. the Christian understanding. It’s pretty hard to make any headway in arguments like this, the Jews think that Christians have misinterpreted Scripture, and the Christians think that Jews don’t correctly understand some parts of their own Scriptures, since they do not accept the revelations which hold the key.

I’m satisfied that the Christian understanding is correct, and I think someday Jews and Christians who are faithful will be in agreement. However, that’s something that will probably take a miracle from God to fully realize!

No argument there. However I find the Jewish point of view much more credible and logical than Christian. After all, Christianity is an amalgam of Judaism and Hellenism/Platonism (with a tinge of Zoroastrian spice) and that's a pretty immiscible combination.
