There are so many mistakes in that article, I am very surprised that Aish published it. Having said that, there are reasons, many, why Hebrews do not accept Jesus as the messiah but I will not dis those who do.
And for the record, there is no such thing as a messianic jew. You can be one or the other, but not both.
“And for the record, there is no such thing as a messianic jew. You can be one or the other, but not both.”
I have to disagree. There are many people, Jewish ethnically, who believe in Jesus as the Messiah. Though some claim the existence of a “God gene” which causes humans to instictively search for God, there is no evidence that the search for God is limited by our DNA.
Interesting concept, but I'm unaware of which tenet of Judaism requires rejection of the Jewish Messiah? Is it not logical that the Messiah would add to Judaism, similarly to Abraham, Moses, and the prophets?
If I were a Jew, I would be more concerned with what appears to be popular atheists-heathens who also loudly proclaim their Jewish identity. Certainly as a Christian, I am more concerned with the same types who identify "Christian", than I am with quirky sects of Christianity.
could you post the mistakes in the article?
