( Concern for National Israel )

God decreed a covenant; a covenant of works, 
on Sinai He gave it to man: 
Obey the Law, from it righteousness draw, 
- be saved by it if you can. 

We labored and cried, and from it we tried, 
to earn our favor with God. 
We strained and strived, in failure we sighed, 
- and felt the disfavor of His rod. 

After many years through sorrow and tears, 
we discovered our nature too foul. 
Our confidence gone, we moved out alone, 
- ran to an idol named Baal. 

He too, was severe, filled us with fear; 
demanded our children to take. 
This was for naught, no righteousness it brought, 
- so him, we too, did forsake. 

On return to our land, we dealt with a man, 
many people worship as Deity. 
He taught mercy and grace; withstood us to face, 
- was nailed to a Roman tree. 

After the dispersion of all, denying Adam's fall, 
our leaders placed our trust in man. 
Utopia to build, by the strength of our will, 
- find satisfaction in life as we can. 

Doomed to fail, we made a Humanist hell, 
with torture as never before. 
Workers paradise gone, its doctrine all wrong, 
- salvation's not there anymore. 

Some men claim, to our “perceived” shame, 
that Messiah was the one crucified. 
They're common folk, without credentials of note, 
- and are quiet easily stupefied. 

Surely we, the learned, can readily discern, 
by reasoned, scholarly analysee. 
We're not easily fooled, as a general rule, 
- and we have an historic pedigree. 

Yet, if Abraham’s promised seed, was singular indeed, 
reason demands Messiah be that too. 
Then, our Zionist claim, to National Messianic fame, 
- is just another fanciful bugaboo. 

Should we look anew at him whom we slew, 
determine if his claims could have merit: 
The Prophets shed light on a Messiah in type; 
- shall we see if the scriptures declare it? 

In the Genesis of old, a wonderful story is told, 
of a singular birth - miraculous. 
The woman’s seed (Virgo), a virgin shall conceive, 
- calling him Immanuel (God with us)
