    Judaism taught that the sacrifice of animals and birds was the way to atone for sin but Jesus Christ came to show first the Jews and then all mankind that he had come to die once and for all to save all mankind from their sins who would receive him as their Saviour. Christ came as a lamb to the slaughter and was compared to the sinless lamb of God that came to earth to take away the sins of the world.

    None. Jesus was a Jew through and through. He made it clear in the gospels that he came for the "lost sheep of Israel".

    It was Paul that conflated the Eastern mystery religions archetype of the "dying/resurrected god/man" with the Jewish concept of "messiah" to reinvent Jesus as something Jesus never claimed to be.

    The Jews did NOT reject the "message of Jesus", they rejected the later "christian" interpretation of Jesus as the "messiah" inasmuch as Jesus did not fulfill the propertied of the prophesied "messiah". They were correct in this interpretation.

    Blessings on your Journey!

  • "The messianic prophecies have been fulfilled. Your role as Jews is no longer necessary."

    The Jews knew that this wasn't the case.

    .

    The Jew rejected the meek and mild Jesus the humble messiah,

    as they had misinterpreted the scriptures and were looking for a king.

    that he was the Christ - the Son of God and Saviour of mankind

    Jhn 10:33 The Jews answered him, saying, For a good work we stone thee not; but for blasphemy; and because that thou, being a man, makest thyself God.

    ===========

    Mar 14:61 Again the high priest asked him, and said unto him, Art thou the Christ, the Son of the Blessed?

    Mar 14:62 And Jesus said, I am: and ye shall see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven.

    Mar 14:63 Then the high priest rent his clothes, and saith, What need we any further witnesses?

    Mar 14:64 Ye have heard the blasphemy: what think ye? And they all condemned him to be guilty of death.

    Salvation by Grace, and Jesus being the Messiah.

    Read Matt 21 regarding The Parable of the Wicked Vinedressers. Jesus was referring to the Pharisees and the leaders of the Law(Chief Priests).
