And just because he didn't come the way they expected him too. They renounced him, then they killed him. You think you're going to convince that man.
You're not ! Jesus didn't convince them while performing miracles in front of them. Miracles that only God could do
“The days are coming,” declares the Lord,
“when I will raise up for David[a] a righteous Branch,
a King who will reign wisely
and do what is just and right in the land.
6 In his days Judah will be saved
and Israel will live in safety.
This is the name by which he will be called:
The Lord Our Righteous Savior.
"when I will raise up a true branch of David’s line."
The verse is set in an end-of-days vision: Jerusalem is attacked, God defends Jerusalem, Israel undergoes a national awakening, and mourning follows. Those events did not occur in Jesus’s lifetime. You cannot isolate one disputed phrase, declare it fulfilled, and ignore the surrounding prophecy.
Jewish tradition recognizes more than one possible reading of this mourning, including a future mourning connected with Mashiach ben Yosef or mourning over the defeat of the evil inclination. That is precisely the point: a difficult verse does not become a proof of incarnation merely because Christians read it through the New Testament.
And the test is not whether someone can retrofit verses to a crucifixion narrative. The test is whether the Messiah has done what the prophets say the Messiah will do: gather the exiles, restore Israel, bring peace, end oppression and idolatry, and bring all humanity to knowledge of the one God. The world has not been redeemed. Therefore, by Judaism’s own Scriptures and standards, Jesus is not the Messiah.
That’s like saying where in the Bible it says in the name of the father sin and Holy Spirit it’s literal orak tradition that isn’t written same with the 2 messiahs
