Season 5, Episode 10 - What do Jews believe?
What do Jews believe? Do they expect a messiah? What qualities will that person have? What is the purpose of a messiah? Will the messiah come from government, military, a school or synagogue, poverty, inside or beyond Israel?
Is there a reward for following the law? Is there a faith statement all Jews agree they believe? What about “life after death” (whatever that means)... is that a part of the obedience and/or messiah?
Do Jews study Rabbi Jesus/the New Testament the way we study and read the Hebrew Bible (“Old” Testament)?
