Like I said, she REALLY believes he was a false prophet. She was being diplomatic -- lying

this is incorrect and is a major reason why one should not trust the "AI" responses. According to Judaism, the time of prophecy had ended 300 years before Jesus was born so, no, we don't consider him a prophet, failed or otherwise.Like I said, she REALLY believes he was a false prophet.

Jesus is a non-entity to Jews. I’ve never heard him referred to in 60+ years of synagogue services, Torah classes, holiday sermons. Nobody ever referred to him as a false prophet, as he is not mentioned at all.

Context is everything.Some, like JPS and ArtScroll, are pretty accurate to the original text, being translations from Jews for Jews. But there are still words in Hebrew that are hard to translate. And that is true of any language.
Translate "melacha" in one word. Most translations translate to "work". It is close but not quite accurate. When we study the English text and come upon "work", we will refer back to the Hebrew text to see what the word used was. And that is just one example.
It never made any sense to me that it was Jews who crucified Jesus. They had no reason to, but the Romans did. He was a trouble maker who championed his people during a time of brutal occupation by the Romans. A social justice warrior of sorts. I think when Constantine converted to Christianity and made it the religion of the land he wanted to wash his hands of the deed and blamed it on Jews. History is written by the winner.lying by omission ...
the jews just saw fit to crucify jesus for no reason whatsoever ...
surly not jesus's repudiation of judaism, their false commandments and hereditary idolatry et al - had nothing to do with it. or their love for themselves greater than the heavens. denial of the 1st century events and their heavenly personification.

I'm an atheist. I have no skin in the game. Just saying that the Roman emperor Constantine had a vested interest in putting blame elsewhere.jesus was a religious itinerant during the 1st century events made famous by a 4th century book - the romans did not know who he was, the jews paid in silver to have him crucified as jesus repudiated the false religion of judaism and had no thoughts at all about the romans - or othrerwise would have been born in rome were their truth to their divinity ... jesus is chosen by the heavens, not the otherway around.
If you really want to have fun study Genesis 3:14.Some, like JPS and ArtScroll, are pretty accurate to the original text, being translations from Jews for Jews. But there are still words in Hebrew that are hard to translate. And that is true of any language.

How can Jews not have opinions about Jesus?Where did THAT come from?

This is what I have concluded after years of learning about Judaism. They are and remain the underdogs, contrary to some beliefs and it makes it easier for people to justify their bias against them as there are too few to debate them, and/or are educated about history.
Yes, they are the dominant military and economic power compared to the Palestinians, it is to their credit, due to their own effort and focus. The reality is that they are a tiny nation, with a tiny population, even worldwide as a religion, they are less than 20M people. Think about that . Islam has over 1 BILLION people, many of them taught to hate the Jews and most of them (outside of Indonesia) are in their neighbourhood. Even Christianity which is far more pro-Jewish than any other religion outside of Judaism has over 1 Billion people (at least in the loose definition of what is defined as a Christian).
The truth is that all that is good in the world, across all of humanity, is due to the Torah. In essence, all of what is good in the world has its origins in Judaism and it's genesis (pardon the pun) is the Jews. We now embraced, through the rabbi Jesus, Judeo-Christian values. A significant improvement.
Someone prove me wrong about the assertions in that last paragraph. Every nation that believes in the respect of human lives, the beauty of the world and within each of our souls is due to Judaism ultimately.
No stronger assertion of this was the poll of Arabs in Jerusalem who stated in polls overwhelmingly that they would prefer Israeli rule over Arab rulers. Why would they, as practicing Muslims prefer this?
Yes, as in Christianity, there are Jews who have lost their faith, that which was important to the light upon the world. However, even those who lose faith and adherence to the bible have at their core the belief in the sanctity of life, the loyalty to fair and equal justice, the belief in morality and forgiveness.
In todays world it's fashionable to blame the Jews for everything, especially in the region. Don't fall for that disinformation spread by enemies of the West, educate yourselves/
He himself is inconsequential to Jews.How can Jews not have opinions about Jesus?
What makes you think I don't study Torah? And never study verses out of context.If you really want to have fun study Genesis 3:14.
Do you have an opinion about every person venerated by other religions? Why would we have an opinion on someone who has no impact on us?How can Jews not have opinions about Jesus?
Because GD cursed the serpent?If you really want to have fun study Genesis 3:14.
