BACK TO THE BIBLE and TAKING NOTE OF KEY GREEK WORDS USED IN BIBLICAL TEXTS.

From the prophets, to the Jews

The prophets' words that were uttered to the Jews were always only for those Jews who place God's Word, spoken through the prophets, above the word of all others.

Daniel

"At the beginning of thy supplications the commandment came forth, and I am come to shew thee; for thou art greatly beloved: therefore understand the matter, and consider the vision.
   Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people and upon thy holy city, to finish the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make reconciliation for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most Holy.
   Know therefore and understand, that from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem unto the Messiah the Prince shall be seven weeks, and threescore and two weeks: the street shall be built again, and the wall, even in troublous times.
   And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off, but not for himself: and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; and the end thereof shall be with a flood, and unto the end of the war desolations are determined.
   And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate." (Daniel 9:23-27).

The above was written before the second temple was even built - and everything that was prophesied about the destruction of the second temple was fulfilled by the year 70 C.E.

The following was written by a Jew less than 40 years before 70 CE - decades before the Talmud began to be written:

"Abraham begat Isaac; and Isaac begat Jacob; and Jacob begat Judah and his brethren; And Judah begat Perez and Zerah of Tamar; and Perez begat Hezron; and Hezron begat Ram; And Ram begat Amminadab; and Amminadab begat Nahshon; and Nahshon begat Salmon; And Salmon begat Boaz of Rahab; and Boaz begat Obed of Ruth; and Obed begat Jesse; And Jesse begat David the king; 

and David the king begat Solomon of her that had been the wife of Uriah; And Solomon begat Rehoboam; and Rehoboam begat Abijah; and Abjah begat Asa; And Asa begat Jehoshaphat; and Jehoshaphat begat Joram; and Joram begat Uzziah; And Uzziah begat Jotham; and Jotham begat Ahaz; and Ahaz begat Hezekiah; And Hezekiah begat Manasseh; and Manasseh begat Amon; and Amon begat Josiah; And Josiah begat Jechoniah and his brethren, about the time they were carried away to Babylon: 

And after they were brought to Babylon, Jechoniah begat Sheatiel; and Sheatiel begat Zerubbabel; And Zerubbabel begat Abiud; and Abiud begat Eliakim; and Eliakim begat Azor; And Azor begat Sadoc; and Sadoc begat Achim; and Achim begat Eliud; And Eliud begat Eleazar; and Eleazar begat Matthan; and Matthan begat Jacob; And Jacob begat Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ.

  So all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen generations; and from David until the carrying away into Babylon are fourteen generations; and from the carrying away into Babylon unto Messiah (Christ) are fourteen generations." 

It begins with, 

"The book of the generation of Yeshua (Jesus) Mashiach (Christ), the son of David, the son of Abraham." (Matthew 1:1-17).

But the Rabbis say, "Messiah did not, and has not come".

Micah

"But thou, Beth–lehem Ephratah, though thou be little among the thousands of Judah, yet out of thee shall he come forth unto me that is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth have been from of old, from everlasting." (Micah 5:2).

Written by a Jew before 70 C.E:

"Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judaea in the days of Herod the king, behold, there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem, Saying, Where is he that is born King of the Jews? for we have seen his star in the east, and are come to worship him.

When Herod the king had heard these things, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him. And when he had gathered all the chief priests and scribes of the people together, he demanded of them where Messiah should be born. 

And they said unto him, In Bethlehem of Judaea: for thus it is written by the prophet, And thou Bethlehem, in the land of Judah, art not the least among the princes of Judah: for out of thee shall come a Governor, that shall rule my people Israel." (Matthew 2:1-6).

Yeshua (Jesus) was born in Bethlehem, and grew up in Nazareth. He was born a Jew, and a descendant of king David. The Jews who followed Him did their research, and believed He qualified. Their writings are called "the New Testament" by the Gentiles. 

The following was written by Isaiah:

   "Who hath believed our report? and to whom is the arm of HaShem revealed?
 For he shall grow up before him as a tender plant, and as a root out of a dry ground: he hath no form nor comeliness; and when we shall see him, there is no beauty that we should desire him.
  He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not.
 
  Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted. But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.
 
  All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; And HaShem hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.

   He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth: he is brought as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb, so he openeth not his mouth.
 He was taken from prison and from judgment: and who shall declare his generation? for he was cut off out of the land of the living: for the transgression of my people was he stricken.
  And he made his grave with the wicked, and with the rich in his death; because he had done no violence, neither was any deceit in his mouth.
 
   Yet it pleased HaShem to bruise him; he hath put him to grief: when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see his seed, he shall prolong his days, and the pleasure of HaShem shall prosper in his hand.
 
  He shall see of the travail of his soul, and shall be satisfied: by his knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many; for he shall bear their iniquities.
 
   Therefore will I divide him a portion with the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the strong; because he hath poured out his soul unto death: and he was numbered with the transgressors; and he bare the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors." (Isaiah 53:1-12).

Isaiah 53:8
".. for he was cut off out of the land of the living: for the transgression of my people was he stricken." 

"..  And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off, but not for himself: 
  and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; and the end thereof shall be with a flood, and unto the end of the war desolations are determined." (Daniel 9:26).

The Rabbis no doubt have their template explanations as to why they say the Messiah did not come before the destruction of the second temple, and why Isaiah 53 is referring to "Israel being cut off and dying for Israel" (but not to the Messiah being cut off and dying for Israel),

but there is still a whole lot more prophetic fulfillment of what is written in the Tanach, seen in the New Testament (which was written by Jews), and the same Jews took the message first to the Jews, and then to the Gentiles, 

but will the salvation of HaShem (Yahoshua|Yeshua|Jesus) save even those who reject His salvation?

Jeremiah

  "Behold, the days come, saith HaShem, that I will raise unto David a righteous Branch, and a King shall reign and prosper, and shall execute judgment and justice in the earth. 
  In his days Judah shall be saved, and Israel shall dwell safely: and this is his name whereby he shall be called, HASHEM-TSIDKENU, HASHEM OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS.
  
  Therefore, behold, the days come, saith HaShem, that they shall no more say, HaShem liveth, which brought up the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt; But, HaShem liveth, which brought up and which led the seed of the house of Israel out of the north country, and from all countries whither I had driven them; and they shall dwell in their own land." (Jeremiah 23:5-8).

The Messianic Gentiles (a.k.a "Christians") all say, 

"It's Jesus (Yeshua), and He is the Messiah", 

and they are all waiting for Him to come back, and to do what He promised above, 

but the Rabbis of the Jews say, "No, it is not Jesus", without ever being able to adequately explain why they say, "No". 

Will the salvation of HaShem (Yahoshua|Yeshua|Jesus) save (from their sins, as well as from the hand of their enemies who oppress them) even those who reject His salvation, while they reject His salvation?

Jesus said,

"He that believeth on the Son is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. And this is the condemnation: The light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than the light, because their deeds were evil." (John 3:18-19).
