Es wäre einfacher, wenn Sie übersetzen würden, anstatt alle anderen übersetzen zu lassen. It would be simpler if you translated instead of everyone having to translate. Was Sie schreiben, fängt an, wie ein Werbe-/Marketing-Gag zu klingen. What you write is beginning to sound like an...

@TheLightWithin @Faithfulservant - You folks basically nailed it. Thank you.

I have a wonderful wife, wonderful kids and three, you guessed it, wonderful grandchildren. Earlier in my life, remember I entered the rabbinate at an age when many rabbis are close to retirement, I found myself in situations where I stopped two men from taking their own lives. I would not want...

I'm trying to come up with something that will be clearer to you as to my point. In the interim, if anybody believes they understand what it is I am trying to say, please feel free to jump in.

This is not one of those questions that can be answered in a 25 words or less manner. I think you appreciate that.

I am an American. There have been times when my country, its government and/or individuals in positions of power and responsibility have acted in ways that I have believed to be irresponsible and misuses of power. I have, at those times, spoken out and worked to correct what I have perceived as...

Sunrise and sunset describe two daily events in the way that they visually appear to happen. I don't have a problem with using that terminology, but it does not accurately reflect the reality of what is actually occurring at those moments. With that in mind do you have a clearer idea of what I...

@EricPH - As I pointed out to you last month in a different thread, the Hebrew of the verse you cited does not say what the translation you are using says.

On July 26, 2024, @iBrian posted the following: "I just wanted to say a big thank you to @RJM for doing his utmost best to keep Interfaith running these past few years. I know it hasn't been easy for him, and I know even the best can struggle at any time running an active forum in general, let...

@moralorel - I’m always up to learning a possibly new to me receipe for potato latkes. Over the years I’ve been put in the position of enjoying many well made latkes and enduring a fair number of others. On a more serious note, it is never my intention to talk down to anyone. If I offended I...

@wil - There, for me, are too many variables, too many butterflies, to speculate what actually would have been, what actually would be if…. As I’m sure you know that kind of musing has fueled much speculative fiction by others. @moralorel - Just a reminder that the Hebrew Tanakh does not...

I'm a bit confused. You say you can't take most scripture seriously, but at the same time you say you haven't read much of it.

I haven't seen you pressing to rename what are commonly referred to as sunrise and sunset.

Perhaps. I see a note that the post that started this thread was edited by a mod on 11/10.

Wilhelm Marr, back in 1879, if he did not invent the term, he single handedly popularized the term expressly for the purpose of having a more high falutin' expression for hatred of Jews than simply Jew hatred. You can argue that Marr popularized a term that was inexact, technically incorrect...

@wil - Was there something you wanted to discuss or did you just think that others might find the video interesting and/or informative?

Maybe this thread could be moved to the more general Abrahamic Religions.

@EricPH - I find the NIV translation here not the best and in a way misleading. The Hebrew says nothing about Jonathan becoming one in spirit with David. It says that the soul of Jonathan came to be bound to the soul of David. You may want to argue the point with me, but I see different...

That’s not what I said.
