Anyone with even the most rudimentary knowledge of Jewish history knows that the name Jesus Christ has been a source of sorrow and pain for Jewish life.
How then can a Jew have any kind of affinity for this ancient Galilean from the town of Nazareth, in whose name we have suffered so much?
Despite the apparent contradiction, the author pleads with his Jewish kinsmen to take into their deepest consideration the truth that biblical Judaism is determined solely by what we do with this Jesus.
