Özet:

Messianic Judaism is a new religion movement that emerged as a result of the Christianization activity of Protestant missionaries. Converted Jews claimed that it was possible to maintain their religious and national values and to believe Jesus (Yeshua) as the divine son. They established various associations within the framework of this view. Syncretizing two essential beliefs such as Judaism and Christianity, emerging in the modern age, the historical development of Messianic Judaism and belief and religious practices are the subject of this article. In this context, firstly, the position of Messianic Judaism among other Jewish Christian groups and the main factors that affect the emergence of the movement will be tried to be determined. At the same time, I will discuss the historical process of the emergence of the movement and the breaking point of the Jews in the Christianization process. Finally, information will be given about the beliefs and practices of the Messianic Jews.
