Guess because Jesus is mentioned in the Koran as well as a holy figure, but Judaism is only the Old Testament (+interpretations over the years) . There is no mention of Jesus in the Old Testament.
Jesus appears throughout the OT but not as "Jesus"
His birth, life and death plus much more are fortold there.
In fact the Old testament tells Jews that their Messiah would come before the second temple was destroyed. Well the second temple was destroyed in 70AD... Which is shortly after Jesus was crucified.
I'm not really religious, more agnostic. (not atheist, that's a religion on its own) Do have a Jewish ex GF, from what she told me Jesus is acknowledged in the Talmud, but not recognized as Messiah. I don't know.. I live my live basically on the same set of rules, been baptized because I had no say in that whatever, but the "believe" vs "verify" is a bit strong in me. Would I like there to be a heaven? Yes. Am I sure? No. Guess I'll find out when I hit the dirt.
