When Jesus was born, he was a Jew. So he stayed this his whole life. Only later in life, he spoke on behalf of his Father. His Father, the almighty JHWH (another name instead of the name God), was Jewish too. And so was the holy Mother Maria. Obviously, he couldn't be a Christian yet, and *if* he was, wouldn't that mean he was involved in a personality cult in which he was his own admirer? So, during his life did he consider himself a Jew or a Christian? **How did others consider him?** I'm *not* asking if he belonged to a religion, like Judaism, or Islam, or Christianity, or even Hinduism. I'm asking if he was born as a Jew. As can be expected if your father and mother are both Jewish. Or is this a modern notion? **I'm asking if he was considered a Christ (Messiah) *already* in his time**. Note: I don't see why this is a duplicate, I don't ask if He was a time traveler! I ask if **others** (*but not Himself*) **consider Him Jewish**.
