The Ichthus Plus: Jesus was born a Jew, lived as a Jew, and died a Jew. Yet, his followers applied his messianic name to their movement and became known as Christians. Christianity and Judaism diverged and became two different religions. Among the earliest Christians, however, were Jews, so the emergence of Messianic Judaism in the 20th century was just one more braid in Judeo-Christian history. Today Messianic Jews may be buried with the "messianic seal of Judaism" engraved on their memorial. Can you identify the symbols? Do you see the fish? Do you see both flowers and stones? Ault Cemetery. [2013]
