Jewish Discussion Thread

Why you disagree with me?

i dont believe the mishnah is divine law, but the wrigings of man, and i find the gtalmud contadicts the torah often. also there are two talmuds, different sects give different proirity to each one.

The Talmud Bavli has jurisdiction over everywhere but Israel and the Talmud Yerushalami has jurisdiction within Israel. Problem solved. Where and how does the Talmud contradict the Torah?

[Vazdania]

Oral law and Written Law were given to Moses at Mount Sinai. Written Law is Torah, Oral Law was kept Oral until it was eventually codified. Oral Law is a expansion upon, and explanation of Written Law.

Written law is awesome But unless you have oral law, it hardly makes sense.

So... God said some things and Moses wrote some of it down? And whatever he didn't write down, he passed down orally?

I r confused for real.

Moses was given the first 5 books of the Torah at Mount Sinai (The Written Law), Moses was given an explanation of the first 5 books at Mount Sinai, as well (The Oral Law). The Oral law was eventually codified (written down) so as to preserve it from being lost.

Sweet. Now if only I had Jewish friends...

Note: I don't mean to say I want a Jewish friend solely to go Passover. However, it's a situation I'd like to change, mostly to have someone to talk about the Old Testament/Torah with.

The Old Testament, to me, seems like the really dark side of the Christian God. Maybe there's something I'm missing?

Do you like flirting with us or something .

It really is only dark if the human element of the "Old Testament" is ignored [ the side responsible for 95% of the events in the "Old Testament"].

[Benuty]

Well I think that they are! Judaism is the seed of Christianity and Islam therefore wouldn't our G-d be theirs as well? Yes they've changed the laws and some even suggest that there is a new covenant which pisses me off but hey HaShem's HaShem! It doesn't matter which religion you follow, He doesn't follow human ideas.

jews dont believe in a trinity, to christians god, jesus and the holy spirit are manfestations of god. jews should find this blashphemy. the muslim god is much more in line with jewish thought.

Unitarians can into space .

It really is not the problem of contradiction but more or so, is it valid and practical in today's world?

*Not that I take an anti position but more of a context position.

There we go! NOW I see what Talmud is (I hope).

As for flirting with Jews... Well... I've only ever met one Jewish person in my life. He was rabbi and an ex-sniper for the Israeli armed forces. So I've never really had a chance to flirt with Jews, except you beautiful people on the internet

He obviously must be a master of Jew-jitsu.

So someone asked what type of Jew I am and I said conservative and they said "I'm not talking about political opinions".

That is hilarious....I've been having trouble explaining noahidism to people

Well he certainly was the only Rabbi, and only religious preacher at that, Thayer my grade 12 class considered "cool".

I think we was anywhere between his mid to late 30's.

Meh. I haven't been doing it on the happiest circumstances, but hopefully things can get better for me.

Hopefully they do. Regardless of the circumstance, it is always a good think to Daven.
