The Biggest Questions About Judaism & Jesus ANSWERED

Christianity and Judaism have a lot in common, not a huge surprise given Christianity’s Jewish roots. But there’s a major point of difference between the two religions — Jesus. To the Jews, Jesus was a man; to Christians, a messiah, which is a pretty fundamental difference of opinion — and it’s one (of many) that’s shaped the history of Jewish-Christian relations over the centuries.
