Thank you very much for the replies. I am generally familiar with the requirements for the messiah, but I have a few questions that I haven't seen addressed:

1) Will the Jewish Messiah (who, as I've read, will be in human form) ever "die"?

2) Even after the Jewish Messiah arrives on earth, will we ALWAYS pray directly to G-d, just as we've been doing since the time of Abraham? It seems to me that we will; otherwise, we would be guilty of using an intermediary, albeit different from the xtians' intermediary. In essence, are we ever supposed to worship the Jewish Messiah, whenever he does arrive?

I did read the two websites you provided; thank you.
