Who was the old man at the beginning of the movie and was he on the planet to protect Rey similar to Obi Wan protecting Luke? Does this make the old man a Jedi?

Thanks for any info/feedback

He wasn't a Jedi, and it's unclear how he got the map to Luke's location. I don't think he had any connection to Rey.

I think he most definitely had a connection to Rey. He does have a name, and was certainly meant to hearken back to Kenobi, which is why they casted Max von Sydow.

We don't really know much about him now I don't think, but I imagine he'll be the main character of a few books or video games.

SO you don't have to click link.

Lor San Tekka

A legendary traveler and explorer, Lor San Tekka is a longtime ally of the New Republic and the Resistance. After the Battle of Endor, San Tekka helped Luke Skywalker recover secret Jedi lore that the Empire had tried to erase, and Leia Organa hopes the old scout can now help find her brother. Following decades of adventure, San Tekka retired to live simply on Jakku, where he follows the dictates of the once-forbidden Church of the Force. But his retirement is fated to be anything but peaceful.

Church of the force is rumored to be a group of non-Jedi who follow Jedi ideals and history.
