The Messiah sets up the new reconstituted Israel,
-
and all the nations will flock to Jerusalem now.
-
You're the Messiah, that's what you do.
-
No, you don't suffer and die,
-
that's not what Messiah's do."
-
There's no Jewish expectation in the ancient world that the
-
Messiah would suffer and die.
-

-
of course it's all the way through the Old Testament,
-
but those prophecies and things,
-
those statements and poems in the Old Testament,
-
they weren't taken to be about the Messiah
