4) the flesh, denotes mere human nature, the earthly nature of man apart from divine influence, and therefore prone to sin and opposed to God.

So, ... you believe that Yeshua was ... prone to sin and opposed to God ?

He was tempted as we are. He was human.

I believe that he was human. Yeshua was NOT God, in any way, shape or form. Yeshua was NOT a demi-god, in any way shape or form. He was born 'of the seed' of David, 'according to the flesh'.

Yeshua was sent (acted as an agent/emissary) by God to preach repentence, and to SHOW us how to properly follow and observe the commandments. Jonah was sent to Nineveh to preach repentence. Not all humans are opposed to God, and all humans differ in the quanity and seriousness of their sins. Some humans are genuine in their repentence (contrite heart), and strive to overcome sin. Others just pay lip service and then go right back to what they had just repented of.
