In the paper, the question of faith in Jesus is analyzed from the Jewish perspective. The concept of faith and trust is present in the Old Testament books, in the Qumran documents from the times of Jesus, and in Talmud that contain the essence of Jewish belief from the period after the Jerusalem Temple destruction. The evidence proves that Jews were not expected to believe in anything without a reason, their faith in God was grounded on the previous experience of God’s trustfulness. Similarly, Jesus provided them fair reasons to believe that He was truly the Son of God, so Jews were able to put their trust in Him.
