Title: Please vote if you are Jewish
Post by: Hrvatski Noahid on April 14, 2024, 01:19:33 PM
"All the people answered, “His blood is on us and on our children!”

I heard a fascinating argument that this New Testament verse is "philo-Semitic and pro-Israel."

If you are Jewish, how do you see it?

The depiction from Matthew is very unreliable. To me it an obvious revisionist narrative trying to make the Romans look good and the Jews bad.
I am not going to vote that I find it offending. If Christians today believe that Jews are cursed based on this passage that would be offensive.

This Guy is Christian from Brazil. There are millions of genuine pro Israel Christians in the world. To my understanding, they don't think they are commanded to hate Jews. On the contrary, they believe in the covenant of Abraham (Genesis 12, I think).

Lectionaries are collections of Scriptural passages from Christian Bibles that are
read during regular weekly Catholic and Protestant church services, and which are
repeated on some cyclical schedule. As such, these lectionaries are widely used by
many millions of Church-going Christians, and they are somewhat similar to Jewish
prayer books, such as a Siddur.

Matthew 27:1-26 appears in the Roman Catholic Lectionary for Mass, Lutheran adaptations of the Lectionary for Mass and The Revised Common Lectionary.

Far from being an unknown verse, Matthew 27:25 is universally believed in the Christian world.

It’s uninspired fiction. The oldest manuscripts are all written in Koine Greek and not Hebrew or Aramaic (the only language(s) God uses for His revelation). There’s no eyewitness accounts written within a close time frame after Yeshu’s death. Paul is such an obvious fraud who contradicts the Torah and Yeshu himself and he authored more than half of the NT. It’s just demonstrably false.
