Judaism has always watched for a coming messiah. Did not Moses state that God would raise up a prophet like him, and those that refused to listen to him would be destroyed?
In Judaism, Moses was the greatest prophet, the only other prophet that was greater than Moses, was Jesus Christ.
Goodness, I thought you Christians thought that Jesus was a God.
Meanwhile, Judaism isn't just not Christianity minus Jesus, it isn't what Christians would like it to be in order to explain Christianity, either.
The gods did not reveal, from the beginning,
All things to us, but in the course of time
Through seeking we may learn and know things better.
These things are, we conjecture, like the truth.
But as for certain truth, no man has known it,
Nor shall he know it, neither of the gods
Nor yet of all the things of which I speak.
And even if by chance he were to utter
The final truth, he would himself not know it:
For all is but a woven web of guesses.
Xenophanes
