  • Answering World Religions – Judaism Shawn Nelson
    June 2, 2019 Answering World Religions – Judaism Shawn Nelson 1. You Already Know A Lot of Jewish History! • The Old Testament is the history of Jewish people. • You’re probably familiar with the big themes of: o Creation – Garden of Eden, Cain and Abel, Flood and Tower of Babel. o Covenant – Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Joseph in Egypt, redemption from Egypt, plagues, giving of Law at Sinai. o Conquest – Joshua and Judges. o “C”ingdom – King Saul, David, Unified Kingdom under Solomon. o Collapse/Restoration – Divided Kingdom, Assyrian/Babylonian Captivities, return to land under Ezra and Nehemiah. • Probably familiar with Jewish customs in New Testament too o Sadducees, Pharisees, washings. o Jesus celebrating Passover (Luke 22:15; John 2:13-23; 13:1-3), Unleavened Bread (Matt. 26:17-28; Mk. 14:12-25), Pentecost (Acts 2) and Booths/Tabernacles (John 7:2-3). o Hear about Jewish customs like circumcision (Acts 15; 16:3; Rom. 2:25), Jewish weddings (Matt. 25:1-13), etc. • As a Christian, you are in good position to witness to Jewish people because: o You already know some Jewish history! o You can use what you already know to build bridges into their lives. 1 2. Important Events Since Biblical Times • Jewish people lost their temple (AD 70). o There were three main groups: Sadducees, Pharisees and Zealots. o Sadducees were the priests. But they could no longer do sacrifices without a temple so they lost control. o Zealots died at Masada, Herod’s Fortress, in AD 73 with the mass suicide of 956 people.

  • From Tel Aviv to Nazareth: Why Jews Become Messianic Jews
    JETS 48/4 (December 2005) 771-800 FROM TEL AVIV TO NAZARETH: WHY JEWS BECOME MESSIANIC JEWS SCOT MCKNIGHT WITH R. BOAZ JOHNSON* I. INTRODUCTION Plotting conversion stories is my sacred hobby. Lauren Winner's best-selling memoir of her conversion from Reform Judaism to Orthodox Judaism and then on to evangelical Christianity is one of the best reads of the last decade, and her story illustrates one type of conversion by Jews to the Christian faith. Her aesthetically-prompted and liturgically-shaped conversion story is as difficult to plot as it is joyous to read—she tells us about things that do not matter to conversion theory while she does not tell us about things that do matter. In her defense, she did not write her story so the theoretically-inclined could analyze her con- version. Here is a defining moment in her conversion story:1 My favorite spot at The Cloisters was a room downstairs called the Treasury. In glass cases were small fragile reliquaries and icons and prayer books. In one case was a tiny psalter and Book of Hours. It lay open to a picture of Christ's arrest. I could barely read the Latin. Sometimes I would stand in front of that psalter for an hour. I wanted to hold it in my hand. My boyfriend in college was Dov, an Orthodox Jew from Westchester County whom I had met through Rabbi M. Dov thought all this [her studying American Christianity and interest in things Christian] was weird. He watched me watch the Book of Hours, and he watched me write endless papers about religious re- vivals in the South.

    KERUGMA, VOLUME 1 NUMBER 1 OKTOBER 2018 THE MESSIAH AN DILEMATH JESUS CHRIST Measuring the Feasibility of Jesus Christ as the Messiah in the Mind of Semitic Religion Pangeran Manurung, M.Th. Sekolah Tinggi Teologi Injili Indonesia Surabaya E-mail: [email protected] Abstract. Broadly speaking, the subject of the Christology that is still worth talking about in the academic pulpit is the title "Messiah" carried by Jesus Christ. In general, the Judeo-Islamic community and some Christians are still dilemma in positioning Jesus, especially regarding the worthiness of Jesus Christ to be accepted as the Messiah. Placing Jesus Christ in the right place for all three of these great religions has proven to be no easy matter. Especially for Judeo-Islam, Christians generally accept Jesus Christ as the Messiah. On the contrary for Jews and Islam. Some Jews gave rise to a half-movement of Judaism and half- Christians in terms of seeing Jesus as the Messiah. Likewise with Islam. Here are some of the main problems. Keynote: Messiah, Jesus Christ, Semitic Religion. Keywords: Christology, Messiah, Christians, , Semitic Religion INTRODUCTION question that is still relevant today is, "What is In general, the available arguments are only about the strong reason for some Jews to decide not to the description of the Messiah of Judaism that is not accept Jesus Christ as the Messiah? Is it because they parallel to the figure of Christ in the New Testament. For did not read Messianic texts in the Old Testament? Jews, Christ did not qualify as the ideal Messiah.

  • Jewish-Christian Hostility in the United States: Perceptions from a Jewish Point of View
    1 Jewish-Christian Hostility in the United States: Perceptions from a Jewish Point of View JONATHAN D. SARNA y medieval ancestors would have had no difficulty with my sub­ M ject here. "Jewish-Christian hostility?" they would have ex­ claimed, somewhat incredulously. "Why that is due to the fact that Christians hate Jews. That is all there is to it." This censorious attitude did not merely reflect age-old prejudice. It also seemed to comport with reality as experienced on a day-to-day basis: the abuses, the vilifications, the persecutions. With a few notable exceptions, medieval Jews quite generally viewed interreligious hatred as something inevitable, and they found rabbinic exegesis that supported their claims. Rabbinic midrash taught that "all the nations of the world hate Israel"; Rabbi Simeon bar Yokhai considered the fact that "Esau [interpreted as Christianity] hates Jacob" to be an "axiom."l With the coming of the Enlightenment and the gradual theological shift toward an emphasis on love, these attitudes began to change. Jews and Christians became far better acquainted with one another; they dis­ covered how much they held in common, and gradually a few brave souls replaced the old rhetoric of enmity with a new rhetoric of tolerance and amity. Moses Mendelssohn, the great German-Jewish philosopher of the Enlightenment, boasted that he had "the good fortune of having for a friend many an excellent man who is not of my faith. We sincerely love I am grateful to Professor Michael Cook for his invaluable comments on an earlier draft of this paper, and to the American Council of Learned Societies and the Memorial Founda­ tion for Jewish Culture for supporting some of the research upon which this essay is based.

For more information, please contact [email protected]. Herrmann: A Wolf in Sheep’s Clothing Introduction Both Judaism and Christianity acknowledge the existence of a messiah. In Judaism however, this messiah will rebuild the second temple rather than provide followers with a place in heaven. In Christianity, Jesus Christ is identified as the messiah. While Christianity originates in Judaism as ‘the Jesus movement,’ both religions develop their identity by differentiating from the other’s understanding of Jesus’s divinity and obligations of ritual laws (Halakha). While both Jews and Christians alike agree on their separation, a small demographic known as “Hebrew Christians” has continued to attempt reintegration of the two faiths since as early as the 1800’s.1 Early Hebrew Christians believed in Jesus Christ while retaining their Jewish identity, but did not face backlash because at the time, they did not seem to want to be considered a Jewish sect.

  • ·On Jews for Jesus There Was an Effort in San Francisco Last Week to Start an Organiia­ Tion Called Christians for Moses
    ·on Jews For Jesus There was an effort in San Francisco last week to start an organiia­ tion called Christians for Moses. But it died aborning, for insp·uctive rea­ sons. The idea arose, of course, because of the excitement over recent at­ tempL~ to convert Jews to Christianity. First, there was the news about Pat Boone busily baptising Jews in his Hollywood pool. Then there was that full page ad· in the San Francisco Chronicle showing some ex-Jews smiling happily into the camera. And everyone knows bow solemn Jews are in their unconcerted state. Now, there's all the local attention in the • newpapers to an organization known as Jews for Jesus; 1 All of this titillating furor adds up to pract ically nothing in round numbers .
