“Jews were looking for the conquering Messiah to free them from Roman domination, not the suffering Messiah Yeshua.”
They wanted a king, on a throne, full of power, with a sword in his fist.
God gave them what they wanted, not what they needed.
You know how that turned out.
They asked again, and God gave them what they needed, not what they wanted.
Thanks be to God.
Nice ....
