Thank you pastor Jeremy. I watch your sermons every week, and I appreciate the added explanation and interpretation in your substack notes.

So, if I understand correctly, the Messiah (Son of God) looked for by the Jewish people would have been a purely political figure (not divine) with God's blessing and continuing/reinstating the throne of David for a period of time. THEN God (Son of Man), but a distinct person from the Ancient of Days (as indicated by the Daniel passage), would come and establish a Heavenly kingdom on earth. I have so many questions, all the questions! 1) Do you know if the Jewish interperetation included a physical coming of Son of Man (diety)? 2) If so, and the Daniel passage as well as several others in OT elude to multiple persons in the Godhead, how would this fit into their interpretation of one God without accepting multiple persons since Christians are seen as polytheists by Jewish religion? 3) Since the State of Israel has been reestablished, would the modern Jewish person be still looking for the Son of God or are they now looking for the Son of Man?

That will probably do for now! :) Thanks!
