Very Important Tutorial
With all the questionable attention my site is receiving, I think at this point it is imperative to instruct people how to copy my site and others easily so that the flow of information stays in circulation just in case something were to happen to my site... What this software does is really cool. You basically enter in the basic website address into the program, like www.prothink.org, and it downloads all content into a neat folder that lets you view everything from your computer. You can also instruct it to update so when new content is posted on the site it just updates that information in the folder. You can download this free software called HTTrack Website Copier HERE and than install it. I can assure you that it is virus and spyware free. Once you have that it is pretty self explanatory how to use from there but if you need further instruction than go to their website http://www.httrack.com/html/index.html To see their online manuals. I encourage EVERYONE to STEAL and COPY all...

Was Jesus a "Jew" in the organized Jewry of his time? No.
Was Jesus a "Jew"? Yes. He was a "Jew" because he was a person of the land where you were called such because of geographical location. The term Judaean was used, properly in Greek as Ioudaios. That term was also used in regards to Galileans, and was also used as an outsider term by the insider Israelites.
The term does not mean "Jew", it means Judaean, so properly you cannot apply the term "Jew" to a Judaean since that word didn't exist back then, there was no such thing as a "Jew".
So it depends on how you want to semantically associate the word "Jew" with Jesus/Yeshua. Since "Jew" refers to the religious ideology of Judaism in some respects, and Jesus was in some way a Judaist in the sense of the original teachings, he was a "Jew". But since you can exclusively deny the term "Jew" to apply to original Israelites and instead only refer to the sons of Satan and other such concepts, then it wouldn't apply to Jesus. Again it depends on how to strictly define "Jew" and the preceding definitions through the ages.
Peace.
