Given the diversity of opinions expressed below, I should clarify my own position. I believe Messiah ben Joseph is a messianic prophecy fulfilled in Jesus of Nazareth.

Those who want to investigate a bit further should read my Messiah ben Joseph [ Ссылка ], or my Jesus: The Incarnation of the Word.
