Since only "he" (a non-Jewish father) is mentioned and not "she" (a non-Jewish mother), the Talmud concludes that "your (grand)son who comes from an Israelite woman is called 'your son' (and warned about in the verse), while your (grand)son who comes from a foreign woman is not called 'your son'". Thus, Jewish descent is through the mother. [29]
Israel was redeemed from Egypt by virtue of its (Israel's) righteous women. [22] A man must be careful never to speak slightingly to his wife, because women are prone to tears and sensitive to wrong. [23] Women have greater faith than men. [24] Women have greater powers of discernment. [25] Women are especially tenderhearted. [26]
Adherents of Judaism do not believe that Jesus of Nazareth was the Messiah or Prophet nor do they believe he was the Son of God.In the Jewish perspective, it is believed that the way Christians see Jesus goes against monotheism, a belief in the absolute unity and singularity of God, which is central to Judaism; [1] Judaism sees the worship of a person as a form of idolatry, which is forbidden.

In Isaiah 62:5, God is compared to the bridegroom, and his people to the bride. "For as a young man marrieth a virgin, so shall thy sons marry thee: and as the bridegroom rejoiceth over the bride, so shall thy God rejoice over thee." In Isaiah 63:16, God is directly addressed and called "our Father".
The Book of Isaiah was assembled over several centuries, beginning in the 8th century BC. [3] Chapters 1-39 refer mostly to events of the 8th century, [3] but Isaiah 7:1-25 are the product of a 7th century Josianic redaction (i.e., an editing in the reign of King Josiah, c. 640–609 BC). [4]
This brief line is from Hosea 11:1, referring to God's call to Israel as his firstborn son (cf. Exodus 4:22) 'out of Egypt at the time of Exodus'. [1] Matthew's emphasis here is 'the truth that Jesus is the embodiment and fulfillment of the mission and identity of Israel', because 'everything that God called Israel to be, Jesus is'. [3]
LDS God has a physical body, and thus is not only identified as being a man, but has a physical sex, that being male. [22] The same is for Jesus, God's son, but not for the Holy Spirit, which has a spiritual form. [22] God is also married to the Heavenly Mother. It is unknown if she has a physical body or defined sex like God.
