Somebody let me know if I managed to avoid bias in this article and speak neutrally. Can you tell whether I'm Jewish, Christian, or neither?
Also, what should I do about scriptural references? The Bible Dictionary version of this had many more references.
-- Looks good to me!
2 cents re your question: At least give the bib ref for this "Bible Dictionary" so others can look for themselves.
- that Bible Dictionary was a 19th century production. Easton's Bible Dictionary - see one of the wikipedia pages of public domain resources. The ref remains at the bottom of most (name that Book of the Bible) entries. It was annoyingly non NPOV, let me tell you, and not only to non-Christians; it was annoyingly 19th C Protestant. As soon as someone seriuosly revises an entry or rewrites a lot the ref. should be cut, just as we should cut the Britannica refs readily, too. --MichaelTinkler
What's the current Jewish position on the Mashiach? Obviously not many people are currently expecting him to "liberate Jerusalem from the oppressive Roman rule" now. :-)
Does anyone know the role of Elijah (see Malachi 4:5) in Jewish prophecy regarding the appearance of the Messiah? All I know is what my own
church says Jews believed, and I hesitate (on NOPV grounds) to put that into the article without confirmation. --
