Prophecies and Christianity

Question

With God's help,
Hello Rabbi Abraham,
I know that the Rabbi is very knowledgeable about outsiders and their wisdom. So I wanted to ask what the Rabbi thinks about the “Messianic Jews.” From what they say, it sounds like they are some kind of hybrid creature: they believe that Jesus is the messiah but not God, that God did not replace the Jewish people, but they have already been redeemed—nothing familiar.
I hardly know the Hebrew Bible at all, but these Christians bring many proofs from almost every book of the Hebrew Bible, saying they prophesy about that man.
For example, Jeremiah mentions that there will be a new covenant and the cancellation of the commandments, as it says: “Behold, days are coming, says the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and the house of Judah… For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, says the Lord: I will place My Torah within them, and upon their hearts I will write it; and I will be their God, and they shall be My people.”
Likewise, there are prophecies that the messiah will suffer (Isaiah 53) and will come toward the end of the destruction of the Temple (Daniel 9), and many others. Even in the words of the Sages it is said that the messiah will come together with the destruction of the Temple. Many more quotations can be found on their website, igod.
Has the Rabbi ever written about these prophecies? What does the Rabbi think about the prophecy in Jeremiah that speaks about the new covenant?

Answer

“And save us from outsiders…”
I’m not knowledgeable about them or their doctrine, and the Hebrew Bible also isn’t really my field. One of the reasons is that it is generally hard to prove anything from the Hebrew Bible. What I have seen can be given a thousand interpretations, and one can construct countless other theories similar to theirs. I wrote here on the site about one of their articles regarding the Oral Torah, and showed that it is a collection of nonsense.
