![Jesus was not jewish - judaism is not hebraism - jews are not israelites - Jesus did not practice judaism [1024x1024 - 270KB]](https://pic8.co/sh/CPk4QD.jpg){kind=link}
Yes, one of a thousand evidences that Jesus was a jew.
Problem is that the word "jew"... Is very ambiguous, even back in jesus days it was ambiguous as fuck, hence the "those who say they are jews, but are not" part
If you take a look at the table below, even among "jews", saducees and pharisees, there are massive theological differences, almost as much as between mormons and orthodox christians https://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/pharisees-sadducees-and-essenes
Oral Torah, Sadducees: No such thing Pharisees: Equal to Written Torah
Afterlife, Sadducees: None Pharisees: Resurrection
...
I mean it's almost two radically different religions here already, it's not minor differences
Yes, I agree, I know. These hypocrites were condemned by Christ not because of their ancestry but because of their self-righteousness and teaching "the commandments of men" as God's law.
This argument is like the one I had with somebody here, I think it was that anticlutch guy, he didn't want to call alcoholism an addiction so I tried to narrow it down to habit and he still didn't agree (or at least, he never answered).
Jesus was a Hebrew, like the apostle Paul, who stated he (Paul) was "a Hebrew of Hebrews." If 'jew' is too ambiguous then a term should be agreed upon and acceptable to all.
