      Glad you asked. God set up and his purpose for the Jewish people is to be a light to the nations:
      Isaiah 42:6
      “ I am the Lord; I called you with righteousness and I will strengthen your hand; and I formed you, and I made you for a people's covenant, for a light to nations.”
      Isaiah 49:6
      “ 6And He said, "It is too light for you to be My servant, to establish the tribes of Jacob and to bring back the besieged of Israel, but I will make you a light of nations, so that My salvation shall be until the end of the earth."
      Does that answer your question?

      Greco Roman Egyptian or Persian pagans said that about their gods too, and addressing them is as easy as addressing the historical fiction based on pagan motifs character Jesus. It’s a layup. When you’re so familiar with the original, spotting counterfeits like every idea and claim in the New Testament is easy peasy

      The Mashiach has always been here awaiting to be discovered. It is you, it is me, it is all of humanity. The Madhiach is not our lower finite egoic selves but our Higher Self, the Divine eternal breath of God given to Adam, to all of humanity. Our greatest lesson is to bring forth that Divine breath into this linear world of contrast to dissolve separation and division and unify by truly seeing we are all unique but individual fractal pieces of the Creator

    I have been reading Jewish scholars for several decades now. When Christians ask why I believe this or don't believe that; I tell them because that is what Judaism looked like in the 1st Century and for 500-1000 years earlier. Inevitably I get a shocked look because they say "Oh yes Jesus was a Jew", but they are incapable of accepting that Jesus didn't think like a 21st Century Christian.

    The One True Creator G_d gave specific details to the Hebrew prophets about when the Real Messiach comes. No One! Especially the so-called "Jesus" has fulfilled any of them yet!
    1. When the Real Messiach comes, he will be a normal man from the line of David through Solomon and will sit on the throne of David and rule from there forever.
    *Obviously, that hasn't happened yet!
    2. When the Real Messiach comes, it will be at the End of Days.
    * Obviously, back then was not the End of Days!
    3. When the Real Messiach comes, the Temple will be rebuilt never to be destroyed again, and The Messiach will start the animal sacrifices in the Temple again.
    * The opposite happened back then! The very fact that the Temple isn't standing proves that the so-called "Jesus" is Not The Messiach!
    4. When the Real Messiach comes, Everyone around the world (including atheist) will know that he is The Messiach!
    * We KNOW that the so-called "Jesus" is Not The Messiach!
    5. When the Real Messiach comes, death will cease to exist.
    * Obviously, that hasn't happened yet either because so many people are still getting sick and dying.
    6. When the Real Messiach comes, there will be World Peace and weapons of war will be rebuilt into farming implements.
    * We're still waiting for that one!!!
    7. When the Real Messiach comes, Everyone around the world, from every language will grab the Jews and say "Now we know that we have inherited only lies and G_d has been with you Jews all along. Please 🙏 take us with you!"
    * We're still waiting for that one, too!!!
    No where in the Torah/Tanach does it ever say that the Messiach will keep failing and have to come back again and again. According to Christianity, the so-called "Jesus" already came back a second time, but he still never fulfilled any of those Prophecies about the Real Messiach. So now Christians are waiting for a third coming. Christianity strikes out again!

    you cannot see "GOD" face to face as that would imply separation. I am here, you are there and that is an impossibility. God is your very awareness of being, "the observer" observing its creation that you have so identified yourself as being. The separate one. The thing is you cannot come face to face with God, your very self...and live, as your persona would drop out and that is what we call death. Death of the self to reveal the SELF as you... the one without walls, the one with nothing to defend, the open one revealing the light of truth calling all the brothers and sisters into their remembrance. How can one identify themselves as a Jew, a Christian, a Muslim, from a certain country, from a certain race, political party, from "a" perspective when what we call God is ALL perspective? So to see ALL perspective, then the only way to see things as they are (and not as you are)... one will need to surely die. The thing is that you will hold onto that persona because it provides you with a sense of safety. The us and them.

      God SPECIFICALLY told us to LISTEN to what the Orthodox Rabbis teach, since He tasked THEM with interpreting the Hebrew scriptures for us, since they (and ONLY THEY!!!) have been studying the original Hebrew scriptures all the way back to Mt. Sinai.
      You need to realize, research, and accept, that NOWHERE did God ever mention the "Jesus" character to us, NOWHERE did He tell us that we need to be "saved", and NOWHERE did He tell us that He requires HUMAN BLOOD (a purely pagan ritual that God ABHORS!!) as atonement for our sins.
      NO FURTHER SCRIPTURES were given to mankind by God AFTER Mt. Sinai, therefore, Christianity absolutely did NOT come from God!
      PLEASE buy a Hebrew Bible (says "Stone Edition TANACH" on the cover), and Rabbi Tovia Singer's books, as well as Rabbi Stuart Federow's book "Judaism and Christianity: A Contrast", to help you understand why Christianity absolutely did NOT come from God.

      As an observant Jew we read in the Tanach "I am with you." King David states in Psalms, "I fear no evil for You are with me. It's all over the place in our sources. G- d is with you whether you acknowledge it or not. He is with every one of us. We cannot hide from His presence because He is IN everyone of us. There is the spark of Divine in every human. We were created in His Image. It doesn't mean He was shaped like a man it means we as humans through self development are capable of emulating G-d's characteristics of goodness strength, discipline, honesty, etc etc. Acknowledge that G-d is with when you wake up and when you go to sleep. You are never alone. Remember when King David states, Though I walk through the valley of death I fear no evil for You are with me. Read Psalms.

    I enjoyed your desperate symphony of a sinking argument-the rhetorical equivalent of bailing out a leaky boat with a sieve. One can almost hear the frantic rustling of logical scraps being stitched together into a makeshift sail, hoping to catch a gust of credibility. Yet, alas, mere noise does not conjure wind.
    A plaintive outburst, much like a child’s yelp in a debate among scholars, does not fortify a crumbling claim; rather, it merely draws attention to its fragility. When reason stands firm, it does not need the crutch of performative indignation. But when an argument is already limping, a tantrum only makes the stumble more conspicuous.
    It must get so lonely with so little light up there!!

    It makes one wonder what exactly does the Torah mean when it says Jacob saw God on top of the ladder in Beit El. What exactly is the כבוד of God that the Israelites see. How God sounds like when he speaks with Adam, Eve and Kane. What Ezekiel exactly saw and what Moses saw in the burning bush or in Sinai. The Biblical God is much more corporeal than the Talmudic one (though one is still perplexed as to the corporality of בת קולand how it sounds like). After the Jews accept the period of the נביאים is over, probably during Ezra and Nehemia times, God becomes much more incorproeal, unreachable and hidden (within the text, within the silent world). This transcendent, hidden God became even more hidden after Maimonides and the Islam influenced Jewish philosophy about a extremely transcendent God that has nothing to do with any human faculties to percieve it. Thisbis why the esoteric tradition in Judaism tried to do the exact opposite - finding a God that is more present and material and traversing his heavenly kingdom and His האצלות through the ספירות. This is also why Christians find so many similar motives with Jewish Kabbalah.
