Did Jesus fulfill Isaiah 53:7?

Did Jesus fulfill Isaiah 53:7?

Did Jesus fulfill Isaiah 53:7 that describes the suffering servant "as a lamb that is led to the slaughter" and as someone who "opened not his mouth"? Answer: According to the Gospels, both the Jewish officials and Pilate, when questioning Jesus, directed their inquiry to his messianic pretensions. Far from showing the humility and silence with which Isaiah describes the servant in verse 7, the encounter between the high priest, the elders, and Jesus is highlighted by a vigorous verbal exchang

Is it true that Jews interpreted Isaiah 53 as referring to the Messiah before Rashi?

Is it true that Jews interpreted Isaiah 53 as referring to the Messiah until the medieval commentator Rashi explained it as referring to the people of Israel? Let's find out Answer: Christian missionaries claim that it is only with the commentary of Rashi (1040-1105), seeking to refute the Christian interpretation, that the Jews began to refer Isaiah 52:13-53:12 to the entire nation of Israel. This misconception perhaps owes its origin to Edward Pusey, who wrote in his 1876 introduction to The

Question: Do Jews believe in the doctrine of original sin?

Do Jews believe in the doctrine of original sin? Find out in this interesting post. Answer: Jews do not believe in the doctrine of original sin. This is a Christian belief based on Paul's statement, "Therefore just as through one man sin entered into the world, and death through sin, and so death spread to all men, because all sinned" (Romans 5:12).

How can a Jew Answer the Christian missionary's Question, "Are you saved?

How can a Jew Answer the Christian missionary's Question, "Are you saved?" . Let's find out in this post. Answer: The Christian belief that atonement can only be effected through Jesus runs counter to the provisions for atonement prescribed in the Jewish Scriptures. First and foremost, God, and no one else, provides the means of reconciliation and fellowship (2 Chronicles 7:14), which precludes any claim for atonement through the death of Jesus. In contrast to the Christian concept that man is

The Foundation of Scripture

The Foundation of Scripture

It is 2000 years now that Christians have been striving to persuade the Jewish people to join them in their faith. And it is for 2000 years that Jews have resisted the arguments of the Christian missionaries. The Jewish resistance to the claims of the missionary is firmly rooted in the words of scripture. But the Jewish objection to Christianity runs much deeper than that. The people of Israel recognize that the Christian faith runs counter to the very foundation of the Jewish scriptures. God m

Who are The Assemblies of God, and what do they have to do with the Jews?

Who are The Assemblies of God, and what do they have to do with the Jews?

The Assemblies of God (AOG) is one of the fastest growing Christian groups in America. They are Pentecostal, meaning they are fundamentalist in theological belief and practice, affirming that Israel and the Jews play a critical role in "The End Days and the Final Retribution." The AOG is one of the oldest denominations to adopt the "Jewishness" approach of converting Jews to Christianity.  What began in 1983 with only 18 "Jewish Centers"  and a  "Home Missions to the Jews Department," has culmi

Just Say Know: What "Real Christians" Believe about Jews

Try this: Ask any fundamentalist Christian why his/her spiritual forebears launched the Inquisition, the Crusades, or the Holocaust. 10 out of 10 will retort, "Those weren't real Christians. Real Christians love the Jews and wouldn't do that." So, what then, do "real Christians" believe about Jews? written by  Mark W. Sanders As a former fundamentalist minister, I know the answers intimately. I spent years living by one imperative: Preach the Gospel (personal salvation through faith in Christ)
