Regarding the OP: Some folks think that the Jewish people have been living partially in the dark for the last 2,000 years because they rejected the light that entered the world. Present day demographics show that a huge number of Jews living in Israel today are not religious Jews.
Some folks point out that present day Israeli Jews are clearly not people who are sitting by the Jordan River singing psalms to Yahweh and studying the Torah. And some folks assert that the nation of Israel that has existed since 1948 is not the same Israel that was guided by God throughout the OT, and that the only connection that exists between then and now is by the name “Israel” and by the common rejection of Jesus as the Messiah.
Are these views skewed, flat-out inaccurate, or are they accurate…?
