Mesiyanik Mesihçi Yahudilik Yahudilik ile Hıristiyanlık ve isa nın Yahudi mesih olduğu inancını birleştiren mode

Mesiyanik/Mesihçi Yahudilik, Yahudilik ile Hıristiyanlık ve İsa'nın Yahudi mesih olduğu inancını birleştiren modern bir senkretik dinî hareket. 1960'larda ve 1970'lerde ortaya çıkmıştır.

Mesihçi Yahudiliğin sembolu Yedi Kollu Şamdan, Davud'un Yıldızı ve İhthis'i içerir.

Birçok Mesihçi Yahudi İsa'nın Yahudi Mesihi olduğuna ve Teslis'te yer alan "Tanrı'nın Oğlu" olmasına inanarak Tanah'ı ve Yeni Ahit'i kutsal sayar. Mesih Museviliğinde kurtuluş ancak İsa'nın kurtarıcı olarak kabul edilmesiyle elde edilir ve takip edilen Yahudi yasaları veya gelenekleri kurtuluşa katkıda bulunmaz. İsa'nın mesihliğine olan inanç, kurtarma gücü ve tanrısallığı Yahudi yetkililer tarafından Hristiyanlık ve Yahudilik arasındaki belirleyici ayrım olarak kabul edilmektedir. Protestan gruplar genellikle Mesih Yahudiliğini bir Protestanlık biçimi olarak kabul ederler.

Mesih Yahudiliğinin birçok takipçisi (etnik olarak Yahudidir) ve hareketin Yahudiliğin bir mezhebi olduğunu savunurlar. Birçok takipçi, kendileri tanımlamak için dönme yerine İbranice maaminim (inananlar) kelimesini kullanır, ayrıca takipçiler kendilerini (Hristiyanlar) olarak değil, yehudim (Yahudiler) olarak görmektedir. Yahudi örgütleri ve İsrail Yüksek Mahkemesi, Geri Dönüş Yasası ile ilgili davalarda bu iddiayı reddetmiş ve bunun yerine Mesih Yahudiliğini bir Hristiyanlık biçimi olarak kabul etmiştir.

2003'te Amerika Birleşik Devletleri'nde 150 olan Mesihçi ibadethanesi sayısı, 2007'de artış yaşayarak 438'e yükselmiştir. 100'ü İsrail'de olmak üzere dünya çapında yer alan cemaatler genellikle daha büyük Mesihçi Yahudi örgütlerine veya ittifaklarına bağlıdır. 2012 itibarıyla ABD'de 175.000 ile 250.000, İsrail'de 10.000 ile 20.000 ve dünya çapında toplam 350.000 Mesiyanik Yahudi'nin yaşadığı tahmin edilmektedir.

Notlar

^ Mesihçi Yahudiler, İsa'yı tanımlamak için sadece İbranice kökenli Yeşua ismini kullanırlar. İsa'nın mesihliğini belirten Yunanca kökenli christos sözcüğü yerine yine İbranice "HaMesiah" sözcüğü kullanılır.
