Judaism needs Christianity to stand up under the Historical method

Good evening. The Torah does teach history it is a history book for ancient Israel. The fact that you say it doesn't make me doubt what you truly know about Judaism. The manuscripts were written in a multitude of languages. The writers due to the place they lived and worked in most likely spoke Hebrew and/or Aramaic. It is true I speak nor write in Hebrew, Aramaic or Greek. The point of textual criticism is that the more written or orally pasted "documentation" that there is of an event in history and the closer the documentation is to the timeline of the events it describes the more accurate it is. The Musar movement is a Jewish ethical, Educational and cultural movement that developed in 19th century Lithuania, Particularly among Orthodox Lithuanian Jews. Not something we are talking about right now. We are talking about history, Not morality. The writer of the gospel of John was obviously an eyewitness of the events of Christ's life since he speaks from a perspective of having been there during many of the events of Jesus' ministry and displays a good knowledge of Israeli geography and customs. The John Rylands papyrus fragment 52 of John's gospel dated in the year 135 contains portions of John 18, Verses 31-33, 37-38. This fragment was found in Egypt, And a considerable amount of time is needed for the circulation of the gospel before it reached Egypt. It is the last of the gospels and appears to have been written in the 80's to 90's. Of important note is the lack of mention of the destruction of the Jewish temple in A. D. 70. But this is understandable since John was not focusing on historical events. Instead, He focused on the theological aspect of the person of Christ and listed His miracles and words that affirmed Christ's deity. Though there is still some debate on the dates of when the gospels were written, They were most assuredly completed before the close of the first century and written by eyewitnesses or under the direction of eyewitnesses. The Torah is a history book for Ancient Israel unless you believe that every part of the Torah is ceremonial. On Christianity and Morality, The basis for Christians morals are the two greatest commandments which are to Love the Lord your God with all your heart, Soul, Mind etc and to love your neighbour as yourself! Christianity played a big role in the abolition of slavery many of the abolitionists were either Ministers or active in their Church but not in a ministerial position. Stoning is also not forbidden in the Torah so please make sure you understand what you are talking about. Okay, So the oldest of this manuscripts dates back to around 100 A. D. Eyewitnesses of Christ would still have been alive at this time period either as a first or second generation. Take a look at Mark's Gospel. Mark was not an eyewitness to the events of Jesus' life. He was a disciple of Peter and undoubtedly it was Peter who informed Mark of the life of Christ and guided him in writing the Gospel known by his name. "Papias claimed that Mark, The Evangelist, Who had never heard Christ, Was the interpreter of Peter, And that he carefully gave an account of everything he remembered from the preaching of Peter. "7 Generally, Mark is said to be the earliest gospel with an authorship of between A. D. 55 to A. D. 70. I fail to understand your nonsense in your fourth point. Christ is coming turn to him now. The evidence supports him. What does Logic have to do with Oral Tradition? What are the New Testament discrepancies and blatant contradictions? Sure. Depends on what holiness as the Torah identifies different types of holiness such as ethical holiness and ceremonial holiness. Is it not written in the T'nach that someone who worships other Gods is to be stoned to death. Please end the hypocrisy. Okay so God is over the law he made and thus has the power to reform his law and also his law is for humans not him and so God wasn't breaking anything impregnating Mary. Jesus is a descendant of David, Please read the genealogy of Christ. While I don't know what a tohor is I know what a middot. An interpunct ( " ), Also known as an interpoint, Middle dot, Middot, And centred dot or centred dot, Is a punctuation mark consisting of a vertically centred dot used for interword separation in ancient Latin script. (Word-separating spaces did not appear until some time between A. D. 600 and 800. ) For the Jewish Term: In Pirkei Avot 6:6, We read: The Torah is greater than the priesthood and than royalty, Seeing that royalty is acquired through 30 virtues, The priesthood twenty-four, While the Torah is acquired through 48 virtues. These 48 Jewish virtues or values (in Hebrew middot, The plural form of middah) serve as the basis for the study of a variety of Jewish texts. Perfect for students of all ages, Middot can be studied individually, With a study partner, And by families. Whether engaging your family at the Shabbat dinner table or taking some time to study on a Shabbat afternoon, Make middot part of your Jewish learning with these helpful study guides. The evidence clearly points to Christ and your ramblings even show this more than you might have taught of. Blessings.
