Modern Judaism doesn’t believe that, but the people that believe Jesus was the son of god during Jesus’s lifetime would still have called themselves Jews. Jesus fit a Jewish prophecy. The religious split that created Christianity came after Jesus.
No one believed that Jesus was the son of God during Jesus’s lifetime, the prophesied Messiah figure was supposed to be a military/political leader. Jesus as the Son of God is 2nd century.

Meh not really. There were tons of different messianic versions floating around. We know this because we have the dead sea scrolls where a fully religious figure is described that way, plus the writing of Josphius who talks about wandering holy men making that claim. Their culture was complex as well as their history. They “knew” that they had prophets who were poor, outcasts, military leaders, political leaders, kings, Rabbis, crazed hermits, magicians. Ezekiel and King David have very little in common except both were viewed as the rightful rulers of their time by latter generations.
Also Paul describes him that way. In Romans and Galatians.
Christianity evolved out of Judaism after Jesus’ time, so no, he wasn’t Christian
This guy is implying that if god himself was born on this earth he would have religious beliefs.
The idea is so ridiculous it’s almost as ridiculous as existence of god. Wouldn’t that be some sort of a paradox?
I’m implying that Jesus of Nazareth was Jewish, I didn’t say anything about the son of god.
Judaism doesn’t believe that Jesus was the Son of God. Jesus constantly stated that he was the Son of God. Jesus was Christian.

He only “said” that decades afterwards according to people who believed it to be the case.
