Before everyone starts thinking this is a good thing, I’d be vary cautious. Here is what he said: “Alloro insists that he is not a missionary, nor a messianic, but a scholar within the Chasidic stream of Judaism”. They also say Christ will only return when the Jewish people summon Him back. Since they don’t believe He is God, then are they really getting ready to summon an anti-Christ that will claim to be Jesus? (Matt. 24:5 For many will come in My name, claiming, ‘I am the Christ,’ and will deceive many.)

I have no clue how far he gets with this. But on the subject of, "They also say Christ will only return when the Jewish people summon Him back.", Christ Himself made that declaration:

Matt. 23:39 For I tell you, you will not see me again until you say, ‘Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.'

Knowing the current feelings in the nation of Israel today, regarding Christianity, I've always assumed it would take something horrendous, like a nuclear attack with 2/3rds of the population wiped out, before Matt. 23:39 would be fulfilled, but perhaps not.

Actually, I may have misread that. I think “He” may have referred to the scholar in the article rather than Jesus. For some reason my computer is crashing the web browser on that site so my reading of the article was choppy.
