Thanks. I've heard of Messianic Jews but not jews who converted to Orthodox Christianity. Seems unusual.

Most of the First Century Judeans converted to Orthodox Christianity. Some of their descendants live in Palestine to this day. The real holdouts were the Pharisees and Sadducees.

Not really, from the religious aspect it is much easier to be a Christian than to have to follow iewish laws. There's also the belief of having a spiritual experience instead of just having to follow so many rules, although he chooses to follow some of them, so I can see moving from j's to C's as an easy transition. Mesianic iewish people are not necessarily former iews, it's just a religious title.

If they're not former jews then do they mean ethnically jews? You mean they're not all necessarily converts?

Messianoc iudaism is a relatively new religion that mostly non iewish Christians adopt because they think it is closer to the original Christianity iesus intended.

It is similar to hebrew israelites except it is not based on race or skin color.

After studying these religions for many years I realized there is not much validity from them except from the lessons you may learn from the Bible as long as they're not taken too seriously.
