Jews in the time of Christ looked for a military Messiah who would defeat the Romans, Palestine returning to their possession. Israel’s military savior, not a savior who would die for the sins of the world. They saw only one coming of the Messiah. Christians see two, the first one to die for the sins of the world, the second one is the military one Jews look for (Armageddon).

So, how do the Jews interpret Isaiah 53 - THE SUFFERING SERVANT?
