Baptists pretending to be "Jews" in an attempt to convert us.
It's funny, I'm currently in a heated argument in a Bob Dylan facebook group about this very subject. Some Jewish guys are basically throwing themselves into a frenzy because I identified Bob as being a "messianic Jew." It ended with me being accused of Goy-splaining.

That's not true, though?

My understanding is that Dylan was a convert from Judaism to conventional Christianity, and then de-converted (partially). Messianic Judaism is a distinct group and theology from normal Christianity and from normal Judaism.

I agree with you, but I don't think Sanchez's description is straightforwardly wrong enough that I'd argue with him about it on Facebook.
Dylan identified as a Christian as recently as 2022, but was characteristically vague enough about it to leave it open to interpretation.
