No, according to the Jewish Priests and scribes, the Messiah was going to "slice & dice", his way across the land.And Isaiah wasn't talking remotely about jesus. That is a later retcon.

And then to be hung on a tree to die, with a bunch of lowly women being the ONLY witnesses to His resurrection. No.... not at all.Really. According to your holy book who exactly witnessed the ressurection? Nobody. According to your holy book, the empty tomb was variously found by one woman, two women or a gang of women. The scripture can't even agree with itself.
Seriously, have you not read the bible?
