Reformed Samaritanism General Overview

Torah teaches poverty and persecution are good for Israel 
234


What is the meaning of the verse that goes on to say: “Behold, I have refined thee, but not as silver; I have 
tried thee in the furnace of affliction” (Isaiah 48:10, Jewish Publication Society, 1917 Edition)? 
The former verse implies that, among all the good states of being that the Holy One scrutinized to give to 
Israel, He found none better than poverty. Why? Because in it’s state of desolation, Israel raised up righteous 
men for God. But when it was in a state of prosperity, it raised up wicked men for God. 
In it’s state of desolation, it raised up righteous men for God (Daniel and his associates, Mordecai and it’s 
associates, Ezra and his associates). But in a state of prosperity, it raised up wicked men for God (Ahaz and 
his associates, Manasseh and his associates, Amon and his associates). 
And the fact that Israel is better off under persecution, poverty, and desolation is also hinted by the verse that 
goes on to say: “… For more are the children of the desolate than the children of the married wife, saith the 
Lord” (Isaiah 54:1, Jewish Publication Society, 1917 Edition) 

Beware of turning your religion, your country, your culture, your technology, your ideology, your political
views, your ethnicity, or your sexual identity into a false idol (pretending that it can never be mistaken, that it
will never need to learn from it’s opponents, or that it won’t ever stand in need of correction!)” 
Was Jesus Jewish? Or was he instead something else? 
235


Both Jews and Christians often conveniently argue that, since Jesus kept the Jewish Law, he was therefore a 
Jew. But was he really Jewish? How could Jesus be Jewish, and at the same time follow a non Jewish priestly
order (“After he was perfected, he became the source of eternal salvation for all who obey him, and he was 
declared by God a high priest according to the order of Melchizedek”- Hebrews 5:9-10, Christian Standard 
Bible)? 
In fact, how could Jesus be Jewish, and at the same time be such an outspoken enemy of both Jews and 
Judaism. As is written: “Brood of vipers! How can you speak good things when you are evil?... 
... Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! You pay a tenth of mint, dill, and cumin, and yet you have 
neglected the more important matters of the law—justice, mercy, and faithfulness. … 
… These things should have been done without neglecting the others. Blind guides! You strain out a gnat, but
gulp down a camel!... 
... Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! You are like whitewashed tombs, which appear beautiful on
the outside, but inside are full of the bones of the dead and every kind of impurity... 
... Snakes! Brood of vipers! How can you escape being condemned to hell? This is why I am sending you 
prophets, sages, and scribes… 
... Some of them you will kill and crucify, and some of them you will flog in your synagogues and pursue 
from town to town... 
... So all the righteous blood shed on the Earth will be charged to you, from the blood of righteous Abel to the
blood of Zechariah, son of Berechiah, whom you murdered between the sanctuary and the altar… 
… I know the slander of those who say they are Jews and are not, but are a synagogue of Satan”- Matthew 
12:34, 23:23, 23:27, 23:33-35, & Revelation 2:9 (Standard Christian Bible). 
The objective truth is that the name ascribed by Hebrew Scripture to any Torah observant person having a 
questionable lineage (like Jesus), while acting in direct opposition to Jews is “Samaritan”. 
Finally, although Christianity is a perfectly valid path to come closer to the Creator (blessed be He), the holy 
Gospel seems to be deceptively ambiguous, hinting at two contradicting realities-- On the one hand, it hints 
at the idea of Jesus being a Samaritan [as he admiringly uses a Samaritan believer as the godly standard of 
neighborly love]; while on the other hand, it hints at the idea of Jesus being a Jew [quoting him saying that 
“salvation is of the Jews”]. 
But, if we were to take a deeper look at the issue, we would be able to see past the smoke screens. How? By 
realizing that, if Samaritan, then Jesus was "a good Samaritan" [as he faithfully represented the Samaritan 
paradigm elsewhere depicted in the Hebrew Scripture]... 
... But, if a Jew, then Jesus was indeed a bad Jew, as he made a poor representation of what a Law abiding 
Jew was expected to be-- in other words, he failed to obey Moses Law, when he publicly [and repeatedly] 
cursed Jewish leadership (a serious violation of God's Law!). 
And the fact that the Judaism of anyone who would publicly disrespect Jewish leadership was to be 
immediately questioned, is attested even by the New Testament, when it goes on to say:
