The difference between Jesus and everyone else who suffered under Rome is that after Jesus died, He Resurrected, and His Resurrection is the single most important moment in all history.
I find it interesting that prophets predicted the Messiah would come. Since Jesus walked the Earth, there's no more prophesy, the temple is destroyed and there are no more animal sacrifices, yet Jews say, Jesus wasn't the Messiah. Then where's God been for the last 2,000 years that He's suddenly quiet regarding Israel?

This is a completely erroneous post.
We are not "happy" that Christ had to be crucified, we incredibly GRATEFUL that the God of all, loves us so much, that He wrapped Himself in human flesh, to pay the penalty for sin that we were utterly incapable of paying.
What we ARE happy about, is that He rose from the grave!!!! Proving that belief in Him will result in OUR resurrection to life!!
Praise Jesus!
You also have it wrong regarding our feelings about who is responsible for Jesus' death. Jesus went to the cross willingly. He could have stopped the whole process in an instant, or called 10,000 angels down to destroy those who attempted to crucify Him.
It was MY sin, and YOUR sin that put Him on that cross not Jews or Romans.
See THE TRUTH, and accept Him, and LIVE!!

Baruch,
What do you believe if you don't mind me asking?
The very few posts I have read do sounds like (conservative?) (Orthodox?) Judaism for your views,
Though.... like it has been pointed out you don't spell G-d as such, heck some Jews won't even say Jesus they say J-man
So I'm just extremely curious

and yet the Old Testament speaks of the anger of God and not just the anger, but also the wrath of God
how do you see anger in light of that fact?
surely you must also know that God was very angry at the way the priests misused their office
perhaps anger is not just human? does the Old Testament say that anger is a sin?

In this passage from Genesis, who is God referring to? Who is the one that God is speaking of and why would He say this to the serpent?
