So, my question would be, …With Christians believing that any Jewish Meschiach being a false Messiah, …What would happen to someone bringing peace to mankind? Why would anyone WANT to save such a sick World, unless directed to do so, by G-d? A Meschiach in this day & age would, more than likely, RUN, like Jonah. Reply

I had the same score. I’m a newbie to Judaism. Are you? Don’t be upset. We new disciples to Torah aren’t expected to be scholars. That we stay learning is our lot. Maybe we’ll get to take another quiz and do better next time! Reply

Good Morning, Coroner
Do we ever arrive at knowledge? Even if we are considered to be an expert in a particular field of study, we are always learning more and adding to our knowledge base. Some know more, and some know less. We must continously research, study Torah, and grow. You're growing and that's a good thing! Congratulations! In the field of sports, athletes are always breaking established world records as they endeavor to reach the finish line. Again, Congratulations! Keep going!

Not if a Christian got 10/10 it hasn't! He is 100% human, but as Mighty God and Everlasting Father (Isaiah 9:6), he must simultaneously be The Almighty as well. But not a hybrid.. Reply

Well, being new to the faith, I’ve got more to learn. Such as I wouldn’t think a Moshiach of that magnitude would be a mere human. Reply

Please know that the Real Messiah has very few plans to engage in any overtly supernatural behavior. When he finally arrives, the world will continue much as it has, with the difference being that everything will take a lot less effort. So for example, there will be no more traffic jams, no more mean bosses at work, childbearing will probably become a lot easier. And the nature of the things that he will do, will be of a natural order, such as bringing the majority of our Jewish people back to Israel, rebuilding the Temple, and bringing an awareness of G-d to the world that will finally make the nations of the world that our perspective on G-d has been the right one all along Reply

I did not think or believe that I knew as much as set out in quiz, but like Galinda, I decided to do it regardless. 10/10, I am thankful and grateful for what has been taught to me thus far. Thank you Rabbi Reply

Loved the quiz! Realized I need to keep learning because I got a very poor grade. However, I do have a concern. When Moshiach arrives and the dead will come back to life, will the dead be friendly or will they act like the Walking Dead from that documentary on AMC? Reply

Now what about the groups that are actual gathering things for the new temple such as the Great Menorah which I have seen in Jerusalem? Are they going to try to build the temple before the Meshiach comes or after? I got the impression that they wanted to do it to bring about the Meshiach's coming. Is this correct? Is this according to the Mishneh? Reply

The Scripture does not tell us that Moshiach is a descendant of King Solomon, and Jeremiah the Prophet tells us plainly that no man of the seed of Coniah (Jehoiachin), the most recent of kings descended from Solomon, will sit on the throne of David. So the official answer to Question 5, that He will be descended from all 3, is questoinable (Of course, if He is descended from King David, He must also be descended from Ruth, so two of the three are byond doubt) Reply
