During one session we looked at a few of the passages that Christians consider messianic, including Isaiah 53. The rabbi and my classmates, most who might not have read the passage before, agreed: Some verses sounded as if they could be describing the life and death of Jesus as described in the Gospels. And other verses sounded as if they are incongruous with the life of Jesus.aunursanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7882696241406815138.post-14662548211288631932012-12-01T04:54:23.774-08:002012-12-01T04:54:23.774-08:00I like "The Messiah" and not just for th...I like "The Messiah" and not just for the awesome music. The back story is also wonderful--by which I mean, why Handel wrote the piece.<br /><br />I wish that people in general weren't petty. But then, I can be pretty much a stinker myself.

I don't think Ellenjay are interested in getting to know people that well.

But mostly they seem to end up being just as petty as everybody else.<br /><br />No, you are not the only person hearing Handel. Mmmmmmm.Firedrakenoreply@blogger.com
