How can we prove it to Jews that Jesus was the Christ promised in the old testament, seeing Joseph wasn’t his father?

And his name wasn’t Immanuel.

Read through the gospels and notice all the references that say
…”and this was done to fulfill the prophecy” or “as it was spoken of by the prophet’s” in other words. Take them to the Old Testament references that are spoken of in the New Testament.
Of course remember….we are only the sower of the seed. God is the only One who can make that seed grow to Salvation. -
Pray that the Lord would remove the blinders from their eyes.If they are open for discussion you can show them from the scriptures that how he fulfilled all the Old Testament prophecies

Joseph was His father. Joseph accepted, raised, and loved Jesus as his own, When you are adopted, just as we are into God’s family, you become a full member of the family. You are not a 2nd class child or an after thought. You have and can claim every right and duty of any other children.

Most Israel Jews don’t even read their own Scriptures … and therefore, never read Isaiah for themselves. When they do … they are shocked to the core that they didn’t know the prophesies that are there.

Adoption is a legit thing

The issue with Judaism I discovered last week in my class was Jews expected a literal and physical king to come and save them. When Jesus came he came to save them spiritually, this was not as they wanted. So for this reason he is nothing more than a prophet like in Islam. Yet to ask them to explain the resurrection of Lazarus and let alone Himself is nothing more than a myth of a testament they do not partake in.

If your focus is reaching Jews I’d recommend watching some good debate videos by Dr Michael Brown, and delving into some of his writing on the matter.
I purchased one of his books a while ago to help me with that same thing, but I haven’t gotten around to cracking it open yet.
