Gee FL, I guess you discovered that there must be more than ONE INFALLIBLE Jewish Encyclopedia then, huh? Is it so hard to believe it disagrees with 'another's' overused cut/paste reference source'?
I personally have to question anyone claiming 'the truth' based upon what the Encyclopedia Jews supposedly believed in 1,900 years ago. What they believed, 'the truth was', proves little. They believed a theology which came to being after God had quit speaking to the Jews 400 years earlier. And the encyclopedia claims also came from a time frame where the PHARISEES, who are no where to even be found in the OT, also came into religious power to deceive. Deceptions such as our Lord Jesus repeatedly pointed out in the NT.
Thankfully, I know that's not your reason for quoting the Jewish Encyclopedia of 'your choice' FL. I do believe that you'd rather quote the Religious Encyclopedia which tells us what 'the church' believed in, for the first 500 years.
MAT 7:13 "Enter by the narrow gate; for the gate is wide and the way is easy, that leads to destruction, and those who enter by it are many. 14 For the gate is narrow and the way is hard, that leads to life, and those who find it are few.
Yes, in the "narrow gate" walk we believe in, the WAY is hard for us, but the THEOLOGY is easy enough for those with ears to hear what 'the Spirit' says, concerning the truth of zoe aionios....or, the God 'life of this age'.
