Jews for Jesus

Jews for Jesus is an international Christian missionary organization headquartered in San Francisco, California, that is affiliated with the Messianic Jewish religious movement. The group is known for its proselytism of Jews and promotes the belief that Jesus is the Christ and the Son of God. It was founded in 1970 by Moishe Rosen as Hineni Ministries before being incorporated under its current name in 1973.

Jewish religious and communal authorities do not recognize Jews for Jesus as a Jewish religious organization and regard its belief in Jesus as the Messiah as incompatible with Judaism. Jews for Jesus, however, maintain that belief in Jesus is compatible with Jewish identity. The organization's relationship to Judaism and its reception within Jewish communities have been subjects of longstanding controversy.
