While en route to Jerusalem, Jesus asked his disciples, “Who do people say that I am?” and “Who do you say that I am?” Jews have continued to wrestle with these questions ever since. For some, Jesus is the cause of all the misfortune that Jews have endured for the past 2,000 years. For others, Jesus is a prophet, a rabbi (teacher), an ‘older brother’, or Israel’s greatest native son. And still, for others, Jesus is the promised Messiah foretold by Moses and the prophets. In this session, Avi will examine the history of Jewish viewpoints about Jesus and maintain that Yeshua is who He claimed to be – God the Son who died for sins and rose from the dead.
