iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

It was never required of your people. But for me and mine, it is an eternal covenant. And also uncircumcized penises are hideous.

Just finished watching. I’m an open wound at the moment - just raw.

Again, we stick with God, and reject your bizarre misinterpretation of Torah and mischaracterization if God and our covenant. Leave us alone please. Jesus means death to us under your theology and with your history. Torah, direct from God, is a tree of life. Goodbye.

000

Oh, just go reread what you have typed this evening. Your religion is antisemitic. And so are you. Have a nice evening.

000

God saves us, redeems us, daily.

000

Oh, but you justify those acts. Which makes you guilty too. Your lack of respect, intolerance, and antisemitism are your own sins - and nobody’s sacrifice would atone for them.

000

Oh, thank you! All we want is for you to leave us in peace. :)

000

Oh, jews haven’t locked xtians in synagogues and set them on fire, burned them at the stake, forced them to live in ghettos, gassed them, performed experiments on them, yelled that Hitler died too soon. Your people have. Being a christian doesn’t make anyone a better person than a non Jew.

000

Don’t need a new covenant. The original is eternal.

000

Nope. We were warned in Torah about people like you. We were directed to reject you. We stick with God.

000

I don’t have to keep the 613 mitzvot! Nobody is supposed to!

000

Maybe for your sin. Jews don’t need to sacrifice for sin. We have the Torah way, from God, to use. It has worked well for thousands of years. God loves us.

Well, visualize my great aunt. A young teen in eastern europe. Pogrom. A cossak used his crucifix to rape her while he screamed that she had killed God. Just sit with that. For a bit and develop some humility and learn something.

000

The words you typed have been used from pulpits for 2000 years. They have inspired millenia of violence against Jews by xtians. And yet, we remain faithful to God and His Torah. We know what is true. Your words are not.

000

Oh, yes, the old xtian antisemitic “Jews are blund”, trope. When you point your finger, the other 4 point back at yourself, sir.

000

Oh, I will stick witg the God if Israel and His covenant, thanks.

in 1 Cor. 9:19-22. Also inferred in 2 Cor. 12:16. And of course, the Jewish followers of Jesus considered him one, so much so that they vowed not to eat ir drink until they killed him.

000

The NT is not a contemporaneous source nor is it accurate. Paul’s writings reflect multiple errors about what is in the Torah, about what the commandments say, about sin and redemption. They show a man educated in Greek rhetoric with little to no influence of Hebrew language and Jewish customs.

000

I am a Jew. I do not believe in a messiah. The Torah never says that without blood there no forgiveness of sin. Sin and atonement are achieved in a variety of ways. Sacrifice/blood is only available for certain sins and is only one method for those sins.

000

Well, of course, the 613 conmandments were given by God only to Jews. Gentiles like you were never responsible for them. But insulting God’s word at Sinai just because the word wasn’t directed at you seems a bit silly. The commandments are our treasure, not yours, but still wondrous.

000

Yah, no it doesn’t. What is shows is a typical style of studying the commandments that is still done today: Debate, probing, what-ifs, challenging questions. They weren’t opponents - they were study partners.

Victim? Cry? Don’t be ridiculous. That’s a juvenile response to being called out on your ignorance.

Oh, Jews avoid blood. We don’t want totouch it. As for digging deeper, I’ve been studying for more than 40 years and the longer I do, the more convinced I am that Paul had no understanding of Judaism and imposed pagan idolatry on his made up religion

000

Nope. Gamaliel took only the best students. He would never have taken a guy who was a) not able to read Hebrew and b) consistently misquoted Torah.

000

Yes, yes. But Paul was an admitted liar.

000

Well, xtianity is a fail with regard to Jews. We’ve been rejecting it for 2000 years and have survived 2 millenia if xtian attempts to eradicate us. But I agree it is appealing to many gentiles.

000

Describe the struggle, please.

000

What was the nature of the struggle, can you elaborate? And given that modern Jews are Pharisees, who have resisted Jesus for 2000 years, what makes our teachings “useless” exactly?

What are you talking about? Do you have any idea what the Sadducees were all about? More importantly, given that they left us buckets of writings, do you know what the Pharisees taught, believed, stood for? Because your statement is absurd.

Forest also grew over abandoned Jewish graves, as the Jewish families that had tended those graves were deported and murdered in the Holocaust...this woodland is a reminder of the Holocaust

110

I know! It’s not an argument, just a fun exchange of quotes.

120

For to lie about Jewish practices is to perpetuate the antisemitic tropes that have inspired xtians to slaughter Jews for 2000 years.

110

Paul was no Pharisee. He didn’t even know Torah very well, kept misquoting it. No Pharisee would have taken him on as a student. And the law, the wonderful 613 commandments, don’t blind us. God wrote them and gave them to us for eternity. Stop slandering Judaism.

What rites? The money changers exchanged foreign currency (usually imprinted with images of idols) for Jewish coins so pilgrims could purchase animals to sacrifice according to Torah. They were highly regulated and a portion of their fee fed poor people. No greed, laziness, envy.

210

This isn’t about Zionism. It’s about antisemitic tropes in the Christian bible.

230

Do you think that’s the most effective way? Would you make denigrating comments about black people to prove a point? How about Asians?
