My apologies in having missed this from my remarks at #77.

Though IMHO, you’ve taken too much of the negativity in man from the Talmud and ascribed relative little to the word of God in Torah, and it’s “prophecies”, which can be attributed just as credibly in several different ways.

For example, not to imply that the Christian interpretations are necessarily wrong, yet the Hebrew expectations of “moshiach” are decidedly different in Jewish thought, and were not met in the “divinity” of Jesus.

Personally, I do not so deeply feel the conflict.

You're free to make these "credible" interpretations, and see if they hold up. They will not though.

Depends on the Jew, they didn't all have the same opinion.
