There might be a couple of reasons for Jews to reject the Christian understanding of Isaiah 53: first of all, it is likely that Jews preverted the message of Isaiah 53 with intention because of the big growth of Christianity in the second half of the first century. Second, rabbies wanted to protect themselves from Christianity. Yet Jewi
