I totally agree.

We already have Christian converts from Judaism. Of course this would only 
apply to Jews who convert to Christianity, either to a messianic denomination 
or to a regular one. This does not cover what I think is the majority of 
Messianics: folks who were born Christian and now practice a syncretic 
Jewish-Christian religion. At least all messianics I ever met where in fact 
evangelical non-Jews, or people that claimed to have a Jewish grandparent, for 
instance.

We could use Protestant churches—with some subdivision Jewish-inspired  or 
along those terms.

This is not an easy solution. Perhaps Messianic churches would indicate that 
they are a church based in their understanding of Judaism and its messianic 
thought.

I was working on a NAR and on page 4 of the cover the author states he is a 
Messianic Jew. I looked in both LCSH and LCDGT and both use the term Jewish 
Christians. The scope note is really concerning and seems incorrect.

"Here are entered works on Christians of Jewish antecedence who still identify, 
or are identified, with their Jewish origins, including adherents of Messianic 
Judaism."



I don't think all "Messianic Jews" start off as Jews but are Christians who get 
involved in this movement. I propose that this subject term gets added to the 
Christian bias in LCSH project.
