This is why Jews are Jews and not Christians, among many other reasons, but I don't think I ever really learned the historical reasoning for the rejection at the time of his death. Whether you believe Jesus is the son of God, he was a real person.
I just don't understand how and why exactly they didn't believe he was the son of God, and how they managed to survive for so long not believing it.
From my understanding they rejected him mostly because he didn't rebuild the temple and free them from Roman rule.
I imagine the last part of your question is in bad faith and is just a veiled attack on Christianity
Nah, I know there's agnostics and atheists who use this site that aren't Imp, so wanted to get that out of the way so I'm not arguing about that
