happenings that are approximate only? Christians like to try to claim that Jesus fulfilled hundreds of prophecies, but actually there are only about 24 actual prophecies for the Messiah to fulfill in Judaism, and Jesus did not fulfill even one of them. Interestingly (and I use that word loosely), they are the very prophecies that Christianity claims Jesus will fulfill when he "comes back". No, sorry, it doesnt work like that.
It was the Jews who were given the criteria by which to know who is the real Messiah and who isnt. Not the Gentiles. Therefore it is the Gentiles who need to be listening to the Jews, rather than the other way around. There have literally been thousands of men who have claimed to be the Messiah, and Judaism has held ALL of them up against the criteria given by God to the Jews and NONE of them have fulfilled that criteria. Including Jesus.
