Well at least we see that the gospels are evidence.
Thanks for that.
How weak it is depends on who you ask I reckon.
To me a calendar pointing to Jesus is astounding, especially when confirmed by the very Jews that scripture said would reject Christ. They had no reason to confirm it as true. and every reason to lie about it.

Why don't you ask them?
Originally posted by @whodeyYes, I agree it's evidence to support your beliefs. Do you agree it is also evidence, be it weak or be it strong to your way of thinking, of the new literature being concocted by people who were familiar with ancient texts and who needed to legitimize the new texts by linking them to old ones?
Do you agree it is evidence?

Yes, I find it weak. So these people who created new literature for the post-Judaism breakaway religion, were they unaware of the content of Isaiah 53?
For you see, you wish to show that Jews who know of the calendar reject Jesus as Messiah.
But then, it was prophesied that Jesus would be rejected by the Jews in Pslams 118:22-24, Matthew 21:42, Mark 12:10-11, Luke 20-17-18, Acts 4:9-12, and 1 Peter 2:6-8.
Originally posted by @whodeyThe Jews rejected Jesus decades before the Jesus story was written. The Jews rejected Jesus during his lifetime. The story about it was written decades and even centuries later.

Originally posted by @fmfBut FMF, the entire Old Testament bears witness to the Jews rejecting God time and time again.

Why is that?

has become the cornerstone;
the Lord has done this,
and it is marvelous in our eyes.
The Lord has done it this very day;
let us rejoice today and be glad.
