According to the Jewish Bible, Gd’s people (not necessarily
all Jewish) are all righteous, while there is no mention of the need for Jesus
to accomplish that righteousness.
In Judaism, righteousness is definitely attainable, though it may take repentance. Gd does not call His people to impossible
tasks. In fact, Deuteronomy 24:4 tells
us that the Law of Gd, Torah, is easy to follow. So why do Christians think that following the
Torah is an impossibility?
What do Christians do with this verse (I haven’t a clue)? “And your
people, all of them righteous,
Shall possess the land for all time; They are the shoot that I planted, My
handiwork in which I take glory (Isaiah 60:21 JPS Study Bible).”
According to Judaism, the doctrine of original sin is
completely wrong. Dear friends, babies
aren’t born sinful. That is a terrible
idea.
Cursed are the people who believe babies are sinners at
birth, placed here by a horrible god only here to mess up and beg an idol called "Jesus," for forgiveness. That Psalm refers to
the world in which a baby is born into, not the baby! The reality is that with every new human life
there comes a mission to help repair the world that we belong to.
