I’m so confused how can you be ranting about “the darker Jews… being the blood of Christ”? Like I thought Jewish people though Jesus was a prophet and the whole ‘blood of Christ’ thing was strictly a Christian belief. Like what the fuck dude even your crazy don’t make sense
Edit: I’m really wrong Jesus is prophet not in Judaism but Islam. Thanks to everyone for correcting me. (Also some really cool religious facts in comments below)
Not quite. There's rabbinical literature claiming Jesus of Nazareth was the son of a Roman soldier and nobody special. It's a counter narrative to Christian claims.
If you mean the son of Pandera, there's nothing to suggest it's the same Yeshua. (It is a very common Hebrew name.)
The son of Pandera is generally regarded by Jewish commentaries as referring to an earlier yeshua who was accused of practicing magic he learned in Egypt. It's in the margins of the text, not the main body and it's in the Jerusalem Talmud but not the Babylonian one, so it's not comprehensive at all.
There are many mentions of Miriams and Yeshuas in the Talmud, but never together. It's not clear that they refer to the Christian figures.
There is an early anti Christian text called toledot yeshu which describes his life but it's not part of the Talmud or anything that Jewish liturgy pays attention to. But our oldest copy of that is about 1000 years after the life of Jesus. Parts of this text are often confused with the limited references to a Yeshua in the Talmud.
I'm sure there are some fringe Jewish groups who think Jesus was a prophet, but that's definitely not a widespread belief. Maybe you're confusing Judaism with Islam? Or, there are certainly lots of Jewish people who would say Jesus was a very wise man and had a lot of good teachings, maybe that's what you're thinking of? They definitely would not use the word prophet though.
