Another dickhead who thinks he can tell jews how to be jews on the basis of his made up crap.
Their made-up crap came long before yours, sonny.
If you had any understanding you would see how the fate of the Jews and Gentiles tie in together. Let's take the story of Joseph for example.
Joseph(representing Jesus) had twelve brothers (representing the 12 tribes of Israel) and to make a long story short, Joseph had a coat of many colors (which we know the rainbow represents a promise) symbolizing Joseph as the promised son (the messiah). Josephs brothers were jealous of him and sold him into slavery for 20 pieces of silver, then reported to their father that Joseph had been killed (he later finds out he is alive representing the death and resurrection of Jesus).
Eventually Joseph ends up in a dungeon were he meets the butler and baker (Jesus and the two thieves) he tells the butler he will be restored back to his position (Jesus tells one of the thieves that he will be in paradise) and the other will be executed.
Soon Joseph is placed in charge of Egypt and marries a gentile (Jesus ascends to the right hand of God and being rejected of the Jews goes to the gentiles).
Eventually there is a famine and Joseph's (Jesus) brothers (the Jews) come to Egypt buy food, but when they stand before Joseph they don't recognize their own brother (the same way the Jews don't recognize Jesus as their messiah). But after a while he reveals himself to his brothers (after Jesus is done with the gentiles he then returns to the Jews and reveals himself to be the messiah, and this is also when the prophecies concerning the messiah are fulfilled).
Genesis 45
1 Then Joseph could not refrain himself before all them that stood by him; and he cried , Cause every man to go out from me. And there stood no man with him, while Joseph made himself known unto his brethren. 2 And he wept aloud : and the Egyptians and the house of Pharaoh heard . 3 And Joseph said unto his brethren, I am Joseph; doth my father yet live? And his brethren could not answer him; for they were troubled at his presence.
The Prophecy of Jesus revealing himself to the Jews after the battle of Armageddon (from the old testament btw).
Zechariah 12
9 And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will seek to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem. 10 And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplications: and they shall look upon me whom they have pierced , and they shall mourn for him, as one mourneth for his only son, and shall be in bitterness for him, as one that is in bitterness for his firstborn. 11 In that day shall there be a great mourning in Jerusalem, as the mourning of Hadadrimmon in the valley of Megiddon.

Apparently you don't know as much as you thought you did.
