I did touch on it. In this very thread.

If you’re seriously interested in the topic, I’d recommend the following books to get an idea of the Jewish perspective:

You take Jesus, I’ll take God

http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_ss_i_1_11?url=search-alias%3Dstripbooks&field-keywords=you%20take%20jesus%20i%27ll%20take%20god&sprefix=you+take+je%2Cstripbooks%2C229

Why the Jews Rejected Jesus: The Turning Point in Western History

http://www.amazon.com/Why-Jews-Rejected-Jesus-Turning/dp/0385510225/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1403728313&sr=8-1&keywords=why+the+jews+rejected+jesus

Rabbi Singer has a fantastic website: http://outreachjudaism.org/lets-get-biblical-audio-series/

You can listen to all of his best stuff for free right now and right there. And yes, he gets deep into Paul.

This is a broad topic that isn’t going to be covered in a quick post. If you *really* want to understand the Jewish faith (and why it doesn’t work with Christianity), you’ve got to work at it. (I’ve been at it for years and I’m still digging.)

For anyone who’s interested in Judaism in general (not necessarily this specific subject) I’d recommend that you check out http://www.simpletoremember.com/

Disclaimer: This is more from the Orthodox perspective and has nothing to do with Reform beliefs.

Not one scripture reference in your reply just a amazon book list. Please show the scriptures which support your suppositions.

Sounds quite JayDubian to me.
