Anyone who has diligently read the entire Bible (and the apocryphal works especially Maccabees) will encounter major issues in reconciling it with common denominational Christian church doctrine that teaches the people calling themself Jews today are Israel/Judah of yore. Yahweh/God made it in unmistakably clear that the house of Israel (which is a literal genetic house,a multitude beyond counting in many nations, not a 'spiritual' house) will be reconciled with Yahweh through Christ. The people who accepted Christ, White Christendom, were kindred to the genuine Israelite/Judahite portion of Roman Judaea. The Edomite portion of Judaea (the Jews) rejected Christ because they were not his sheep.
