Judaism and Origins of Christianity

[Minimalist]

The idea of a messiah existed in Judaism pre-Jesus certainly.

"Jesus" bears no resemblance to the messiah which judaism anticipated.

There's a lot of evidence from the Jewish literature itself,

Which assumes that "literature" was not written and/or edited after the fact.

The Hasmonean/Maccabee stories in particular seem to flow from a power struggle between Hellenized jews and non-Hellenized jews.
