Nungali Posted April 20, 2018 You should really read your own links when you make stuff up " Hasidic thought draws heavily on Lurianic Kabbalah, and, to an extent, is a popularization of it. " https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hasidic_Judaism And I am sure a real hasidic jew could come up with a better traditional reference than Wikipedia ? AND if you are not into Kabbalah ... what was all that number and letter stuff you have posting for the last few months, hmmmmmm ? ... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Adam and Eve myth is just that, a myth. The earth is around 4.5 billion years old and the first human ancestors appeared circa 5-7 million years ago.

Then you might understand the responses (or lack of them ) better . Hint - this is a discussion board not a blog page .

Science is based on theories though,.no one ever saw the world back 5000 years ago. It all hangs on a thread. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cheshire Cat Posted April 22, 2018 On 19/4/2018 at 11:38 PM, Lost in Translation said: That is very true, and one tribe (the sons of Israel) became the Jewish people and the rest did not. [...] Not really. We don't know for sure that we're talking about "Jews". The term "jewish" would imply that they're all from the tribe of Judah, an historically inaccurate hypothesis . In fact, there are those who prefer the term "Israelites" to say that they come from the 12 tribes and the "state of Israel" is definitely not the "state of Judea". But in ancient time, when historians (and writers) talked about the "jews" who inhabited the region, they used the word "hebrews". For example, the apostle Paul wrote the "Epistle to the hebrews" and not the "Epistles to the jews"... and he was a Jew and he was writing to his own people. Where does the term "hebrew" come from? Noah Other children Sem, his people were the Semites descendants Ever, his peopel were the Ivriim or the hebrews (from here, they're all hebrews) descendants Terach Nacor Aram Abraham Isaac Esau Jacob (Israel) The bible talks about the pact between God and Israel. Everyone else is outside of the pact, even Jacob's twin brother. But they're all hebrews. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
