That is such an elegant turn of phrase, rosends. I may have to borrow it sometime.

The Jewish idea of a prophet is someone who is tasked by God to convey a divine message to the people. That's pretty much it. "Mashiach" means "one who is anointed wit particular oil" and this refers to a high priest or a king who is anointed with Shemen hamishchah, the oil of anointing.



No, not at all. Judaism believes that there were plenty of prophets after Moses.
Judaism 101: Prophets and Prophecy
are those the same prophets they have believed in be the same ones that he with one of his last thoughts makes this accusation ?

Mat 23:37
“Jerusalem, Jerusalem, you who kill the prophets and stone those sent to you, how often I have longed to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, and you were not willing.

Luk 13:34
“Jerusalem, Jerusalem, you who kill the prophets and stone those sent to you, how often I have longed to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, and you were not willing.

is these prophets that they were supposed to believe in?
it seems all men of every nation including this one just love to kill their kings, prophets and their God, if they get the chance .

I have no idea what you are talking about. You are asking me to draw a conclusion about a character's opinions based on texts which I don't hold to be authoritative or useful. Of course, if those texts make an accusation about historical events, it would behoove you to research and confirm that said historical events took place so that you can deduce meaning for yourself.

And your final question about "killing God" is troubling at best. What kind of a God can be killed? Certainly not one that I would consider worshiping.

Sadly your own words PROVE you to be of those worldly and/or religious souls who have their portion in and of that which IS destroying Creation(air, water, land, vegetation, creatures) and perverting that which IS SPIRIT( (TRUTH, Light, Life, Love, Peace, Faith, Grace, Hope,,,,, ALL that is Truly GOOD)!

Those who "have eyes yet see not, and ears yet hear not"!

Simply sad for you.......

Devarim - Deuteronomy - Chapter 18

18 I will set up a prophet for them from among their brothers like you, and I will put My words into his mouth, and he will speak to them all that I command him.


19 And it will be, that whoever does not hearken to My words that he speaks in My name, I will exact [it] of him.


20 But the prophet who intentionally speaks a word in My name, which I did not command him to speak, or who speaks in the name of other gods, that prophet shall die.





Rashi's Commentaruy:


which I did not command him to speak: But which I commanded his fellow prophet [to speak].


or who speaks in the name of other gods: Even though his words coincide with the halachah [Jewish law], forbidding what is forbidden or permitting what is permissible. — [San. 89a]


[That prophet] shall die: By strangulation. Three [sinful prophets] are executed by man [i.e., by the court]: One who prophesies what he has not heard, one who prophesies what was not told to him but was told to his fellow [prophet], and one who prophesies in the name of a pagan deity. However, one who suppresses his prophecy [i.e., does not announce it], or one who transgresses the words of a prophet, or a prophet who transgresses his own words [of prophecy]-their death is by the hands of Heaven, for it is said (verse 19), “ I shall exact [it] from him.” - [San. 89a]

Yet while breath(Spirit, air) is, Hope IS!

For TRUTH IS! and Miracles do happen.......

HalleluYAH!
Yea, well, I'm a Jew....So, it is my story....My religion that Christianity has co-opted...
