I indicated this in a previous post. Though I can’t what year- It was when Christianity started converting pagans to Christianity. THey no longer were Jews entering the fold. Once that happened and they rejected the obligation of Jewish law, they were done.

I agree with you to an extent....

When they took the actual words of grace and salvation to the gentile world, and it morphed into a complete other religion then yes it lost it’s Jewish following as they knew it...However the Jewish Law had been fullfilled with Jesus Christ...

This was discussed heavily in the Book of Acts, do gentiles need to be circumcised,do they honor the sabbath, do they eat kosher etc...

Law vs. Grace...That is the dis-connect...

Yes I know about the Virgin translation in *Hebrew* and yes
I know that translation can be a problem in many scripture contexts....

However as the other poster stated Orthodox Judaism does not go into any detail, about what to look for when the Messiah comes...I have read what Judaism sees as fullfillment of certain qualifications that will determine the Messiah of Israel, but as I have asked before, how long does that individual have to complete his mission?

There is nothing in the Torah nor Talmud that gives a time frame how long the time is needed for Messiah to complete his work..
