The question is, are they actual descendants of Jacob, or whether they are descendants of Esau.
You are? No shit. So, apparently, according to your view it seems, that if ANYONE of a particular group, have done something wrong, then the whole group, even the innocent, are guilty too huh? Pretty broad brush you have there. Sure, deal with the ones who are PROVABLY guilty, but don't throw out the baby with the bathwater. Then there is the issue of Edomites being forced to, "become," Jews back in the day. How many of them still claim to be Jews? Edom hated/hates Israel even to this day. If they were a virus within the body of Israel, how much trouble could they cause and make it appear to be, "the Jews." Granted, some Jews have fallen away, not exactly a new idea, the bible is full of it, BUT, there is ALWAYS a remnant that remain true to God. You wanna wipe them out too?
Every person on this planet is guilty in Gods eyes, now you want to be the judge instead of God? Let he who is without sin, cast the first stone.
"THE Jews?" Is it every single one of them? Or just SOME? In America, we have some bad apples too, should we wipe us all out too because of a few bad ones? Try thinking.
Learn some history. Apparently, some Jews read the Talmud more than the Torah or Tanakh. Guess where the Talmud came from? Ever heard of Chaldeans? Nimrod? Semiramis and Tammuz? Read the bible, God has been trying to get them to return, which they will, but not before they are further refined. They WILL eventually realize who Jesus was and weep, until then, they play their part. Satan has been trying to wipe them out for quite some time. Why? The Messiah already came and defeated him. So why still go after the Jews? Because they STILL have a part to play and he's trying to stop that. So anyone who tries to wipe out the Jews is essentially supported by satan. Satan will fail, just like he has time and time again.
Christ will return once Israel recognizes their Messiah. THAT is what satan is trying to prevent by going after the Jews.
Zec 12:10 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.
Zec 12:11 In that day shall there be a great mourning in Jerusalem, as the mourning of Hadadrimmon in the valley of Megiddon.
Zec 12:12 And the land shall mourn, every family apart; the family of the house of David apart, and their wives apart; the family of the house of Nathan apart, and their wives apart;
Zec 12:13 The family of the house of Levi apart, and their wives apart; the family of Shimei apart, and their wives apart;
Zec 12:14 All the families that remain, every family apart, and their wives apart.
Same old tactic huh? I'm not Jewish, at least not ethnically as far as I know. Spiritually, you could say that I am because I am part of the body of Christ, who is a Hebrew. it depends on whether you view it as an earthly thing, or a spiritual thing.
Because they worship with their mouths instead of deeds. That passage refers to Jews who rejected their Messiah, not ALL Jews. I suspect you can't see the difference.
KEK. Lame. Try harder.
That's true, Jewish is a religion, Hebrew is the ethnicity.
