Does Judaism acknowledge Jesus?

As what?

Judaism say that a messiah will come. It also says that there will be many false messiahs. Since Jesus failed to fulfill many key Jewish messianic prophecies, such as bringing peace to the world in his lifetime, a single religion to the world, rebuilding the Temple, etc. those that think he was a real person classify him as a false messiah.


To the Jews arguing over whether Jesus was a real person or not is as important as arguing over whether the Trojan Horse really existed or not. Whatever the answer is it does not matter to Judaism because, even if all the biblical accounts are correct, he fails the criteria for being the messiah.
 
I've read that after Jesus died, some Jews started writing parables, a form of expression that Jesus appears to have been the first to have used.

So there may be an indirect influence of Jesus on Judaism, even if it is not acknowledged.

That said, if you look at Judaism internally, Jesus himself (as opposed to the effect his ministry had after his death) was probably of little significance, since there were many Jewish "teachers" (for lack of a better term) around at that time who were saying things not that much different from what Jesus was teaching.
 
Judaism acknowledges Jesus as one of a number of false Messiahs. The Talmud is as negative about him as some Christians are about the Antichrist.
 
They acknowledge His existance...that just refuse to see Him as the Messiah
 
answer: As having possibly existed - yes.

As a teacher, prophet or the Jewish Messiah - no, absolutely not.

Others are incorrect - Jesus is not a prophet in Judaism.

No offense to Christians but Jesus has NO relevance in Judaism except in how Christians have impacted Jews over the centuries.
 
Absolutely. They acknowledge he was a great prophet in the same way that islam does. At least Judaism does not hate all others.
