According to christians and muslims, the Lord is returning in the future.
How can that happen before the messiah the jews are waiting shows up? Thoughts?

Jeremiah 31:31 Lo, days are coming, an affirmation of Jehovah, And I have made with the house of Israel And with the house of Judah a new covenant,

Isaiah 65:17 " For behold, I create new heavens and a new earth; And the former shall not be remembered or come to mind. 18 But be glad and rejoice forever in what I create; For behold, I create Jerusalem [as] a rejoicing, And her people a joy.

And this is meaningless to the followers of Judaism. How about you stop posting ‘proof text’ and start learning about the Jewish Moshiach.

Jesus is the Moshiach in the Bible.

How about you explaining why christians and muslims are waiting on the return of the Lord and New heaven and earth of Isaiah 65 which cannot happen until the jews' Messiah/Moshiach shows up to Israel. Do the jews understand that? Peace.

Jeremiah 31:31 Lo, days are coming, an affirmation of Jehovah, And I have made with the house of Israel And with the house of Judah a new covenant, 33 For this [is] the covenant that I make, With the house of Israel, after those days,

Isaiah 65:17 " For behold, I create new heavens and a new earth; And the former shall not be remembered or come to mind. 18 But be glad and rejoice forever in what I create; For behold, I create Jerusalem [as] a rejoicing, And her people a joy.

Not to mention that the Messiah of the Christian Bible is vastly different from the Messiah of Judaism. From what I can tell, the Jewish messiah is little more than a politician. And what need does the world have for one more of those?

The requirements of the Moshiach are outlined in the Hebrew bible, and if the person doesn’t fulfill them all, he is not the Moshiach. I will give you a hint, Jesus did not fulfill them.

I can agree that the modern ideal of the Messiah (Christainity) is vastly different from the Jewish Moshaich. The author of Matthew went to great lengths to say that Jesus was the Jewish Moshiach. But, Jesus didn’t fit the mold.

Well, its not only what the Jewish Moshiach will do, but the age which comes when he comes.

If Jesus wasn't the Moshiach then we nor the jews have to worry about the Day of the Lord until He shows up. Do the jews know that :wave:

(Young) 2 Peter 3:10 and it will come--the day of the Lord--as a thief in the night, in which the heavens with a rushing noise will pass away, and the elements with burning heat be dissolved, and earth and the works in it shall be burnt up.

(Young) Revelation 21:1 And I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth did pass away, and the sea is not any more; 2 and I, John, saw the holy city--new Jerusalem--coming down from God out of the heaven,

If only you said that Jesus didn't fit the mold that modern Jewish rabbis have made in place of the word of God, then I would agree. But as it stands, I contest your claim on the requirements of the Messiah, as given in the Scriptures.

Well, its not only what the Jewish Moshiach will do, but the age which comes when he comes.

And what else does he do? From what Jews tell me, he restores a political state of Israel, and somehow coerces the world to obey the Torah. Where is the theodicy in this?

Honestly, it’s rather annoying when you make claims and haven’t done the research.

I will give you only one of the criterions: The Moshiach will rebuild the Temple (physical Temple, not a spiritual one) and re-establish its worship.
The Jews (who follow Judaism) know that the Moshiach hasn’t shown up.

That is what they think.
Is that after or before the Great Day of the Lord God Almighty?

Isaiah 13:6 Howl ye, for near [is] the day of Jehovah, As destruction from the Mighty it cometh. 7 Therefore, all hands do fail, And every heart of man doth melt. 8 And they have been troubled, Pains and pangs they take, As a travailing woman they are pained, A man at his friend they marvel, The appearance of flames--their faces! 9 Lo, the day of Jehovah doth come, Fierce, with wrath, and heat of anger, To make the land become a desolation, Yea, its sinning ones He destroyeth from it.

(Young) 2 Peter 3:10 and it will come--the day of the Lord--as a thief in the night, in which the heavens with a rushing noise will pass away, and the elements with burning heat be dissolved, and earth and the works in it shall be burnt up.

The Moshiach’s requirements have been known to the Jewish people from the 1st century BCE until now. Moshiach claimants have been around since the 1st century BCE.

arunma said:

So, from where do we get the requirements of the Moshiach? Where did the author of Matthew look for them? In the Hebrew bible…

It’s not only about what the Moshiach will do, it’s also about the World to Come. If you would like me to enlighten you, I will.

Nope. Just answer the question. Does the jew's Moshiach come before or after the Great Day of the Lord? The jews can build but it sure won't be God's Sanctuary or temple.

zeph 1:2 " I will utterly consume everything From the face of the land," Says the LORD; 3 "I will consume man and beast; I will consume the birds of the heavens, The fish of the sea, And the stumbling blocks along with the wicked. I will cut off man from the face of the land," Says the LORD. 4 "I will stretch out My hand against Judah, And against all the inhabitants of Jerusalem. I will cut off every trace of Baal from this place,

That isn't at issue here.

It’s not only about what the Moshiach will do, it’s also about the World to Come. If you would like me to enlighten you, I will.

By all means. But as you know, I consider the rabbis to be false teachers and liars, and I would recognize the divine authority of an Imam before I would theirs, so I'm curious as to how you will go about this.

First, stop quoting ‘proof text’ out of context, and without any commentary.

I too am fond of commentaries. Here is that of John Wesley:
Behold - And not only with the Jews, but all those who should be ingrafted into that Olive. It is not called the new covenant, because it was as to the substance new, for it was made with Abraham, Gen_17:7, and with the Jews, Deu_26:17-18, but because it was revealed after a new manner, more fully and particularly, plainly and clearly. Nor was the ceremonial law any part of it, as it was to the Jews, a strict observance of that. It was likewise new in regard of the efficacy of the spirit attending it, in a much fuller and larger manner.
Is there another commentator whose work you would like us to quote alongside the Biblical text? If you were looking for us to quote Jewish commentators, then I don't think you'll be able to debate us, since we do not recognize their authority.

Actually, the buck stopped upon the destruction of the Jewish Nation and Temple in the first century.

The odd thing about this is that the requirements were known of the Jewish people long before ‘rabbis’ whom didn’t come into the picture till after 200 CE. One doesn’t have to be a Sage or a Rabbi to find clues of the Moshiach, one only have to connect the dots. So, how about this, tell me your view on the requirements.

arunma said:

I never asked for a commentator, I asked him to supply some type of commentary along with his proof text instead of posting a proof text without even talking about it or supporting it.

Did Jesus make a false prophecy here? I doubt if a True Jewish Moshiach would make a prophecy like this and it not come to pass, otherwise he would be a False Moshiach, correct?

Luke 21:22 "For these are the Days of Vengeance, that ALL Things which are Written may be Fulfilled.

1 Peter 4:7 But the End of ALL things is at hand; therefore be serious and watchful in your prayers.

Technically, Israel as a nation was disbanded long before the destruction of the 2nd Temple in 70 CE.
