The Jewish and Christian View of the Messiah Compared – Part 1
Comparison between Rabbinic & Messianic Views
Rabbinic View of Redeemer
- Redemption
- Redemption does not depend upon the actions of an individual (i.e. the Messiah).
- Redeemer is God alone and Messiah is not divine.
- Judaism does not depend upon Messiah for its daily life but does await his coming to help establish the Kingdom of Heaven where God’s enemies will be vanquished.
- The Unity of God
- Messiah is not Son of God/ Incarnate/a member of the Tri-unity. He is only a Righteous man, for God is One (Deut. 6:4 – The Shema).
- We cannot pray to the Messiah for he is only a man.
- He is not a Mediator between God and humankind, for he only a man.
- He is not a Paraclete–come beside/call upon for help–Comforter and Helper for humankind.
- Messiah as Redeemer
- He in a limited way he is a Redeemer of humankind as a Righteous Tzadik – He will fulfil a very special role at the End of the Age helping to bring about redemption of humanity through his special abilities and deeds.
Messianic View
Redemption takes place through the action of the Messiah (Isa. 12:2; Gal. 3:13; Rev. 5:9; Titus 2:14). The Mediator (1 Tim. 2:5; Heb. 14:24).
Messiah through his atoning work reconciles us to God (Rom. 5.10; Ephes. 2:16; 2 Cor 5:18).
Without Messiah the Messianic faith would not exist at all (Heb. 10:20; John 6:68-69; 1 Tim. 2:5).
Messiah is the divine Son of God, Immanuel–God with us (Isa. 7:14, 9:6-10).
God’s Oneness is manifested ‘One God,’ yet three persons–Tri-unity/ Echud = Unity (Gen. 1:2, 26 also cf Gen. 1:1 & John 1:1).
Prayers may be offered through the Messiah to the Father in heaven; also to him because he is divine (John 14:6; 15:16; Acts 7:59, 9:5).
He is the only true Mediator (1 Tim. 2:5)
The Way, the Truth and the Life (John 14:6)
Yeshua the Messiah sends the Paraclete to humankind. He is the ‘come–beside/call upon for help–Comforter and Helper’ for humankind. (John 14:15-17, 16:7-15).
