    To me it is highly significant that so many Jews refused to return to Israel and remained voluntarily in so-called "exile". What then to make of Psalm 137? Why remain rather than return? Even today there are as many or more Jews in the world who refuse to make aliyah and choose to stay in lands where they have to deal with the dislike of their host nations than have gone home. Very interesting pattern, and not a new one.

      This theory will be banned even just minutes from now since machine can banned from just codes or words,
      If you see ur bible about how jews kicked out from israel because they worship canaanite dieties, u will see some puzzle which led to why they dont want to returned, is it wrong if i suspect that jews cant return to israel because they cant worship those dieties? I mean what god said is the ultimate nature laws, if a jew worship canaanite diety in israel nowadays, somehow god make them out of israel

    Part of the beauty of the talmud is that it records the discussions, both the good and the bad. It does not just give a commandment of what can and cannot be done. Rather it gives the messy, and yet beautiful, journey to their destination. Thereby, allowing future scholars to see what it is and what is no longer part of the formula in the deciding Jewish law. Sure, it would’ve been cleaner to just give the end result, but the Talmud is not a book of law, but rather a book of a journey with beautiful lessons.
    What the haters of the Talmud just show you are the bumps of a journey spanning a few hundred years. They will tell you about one rabbi’s radical view, but leave out the other rabbi’s awesome response. They won’t tell you that jewish legal law is not decided from the Talmud, but rather it’s a journey and an experience that has ups and downs.

    Talking of the Babylonian Exile, who were the people who were actually exiled? Were they just Jerusalem elites, or everybody including farmers from all around Judea? If only a portion of the population was exiled, what percentage are we talking about? The next question would be, having arrived in Babylon and being uprooted from their familiar environment, what did they do there? How did they make their living? Did they even speak the language? Do we have archaeological evidence of their sudden increase in numbers in Babylon that would correlate with the timeframe of the exile?

    • @Azupiru
      @Azupiru Год назад +4

      Whatever the case, we know that the Babylonians and Assyrians took the educated elites and set them to work as scribes. The foundations of Judaism are thus to be sought in the Cuneiform corpus.
      For example, the first usage of the word for "now" in Hebrew, which is pronounced naw (yes, the English word now and the Hebrew word now share the same etymological root) and spelled נָא, is in Genesis 12, verse 11, which reads in translation as "And it came to pass, when he was come near to enter into Egypt, that he said unto Sarai his wife, Behold now, I know that thou art a fair woman to look upon." In this passage, "Behold" is pronounced hinne and "Now" is pronounced na, which in Hebrew reads הִנֵּה־נָא, "Hinne-na." This Hebrew word, as well as "henna" (not "hinne"), are both cognate to and genetically derived from the ancient Semitic word "Inanna" which means "now." Of course, Inanna is also the deity of the Subartans, who entered Sumer from the East, and we know this because it was attested in Enmerkar and the Lord of Aratta (As in Ararat) and indeed the Subartan lands enveloped Lake Van and Ararat. This Subartan word for "now" is the proto-indo-european root that informed the character traits of Inanna the Semitic deity that Enmerkar of Sumer stole from the Subartans. The English word "now" is derived from the same PIE root.
      I am Messiah. Inanna, if you would only hear my voice.

Now, given that the Hebrew scribes of Jerusalem spoke and wrote Hebrew at the time, how easy would it be for them to speak and write the language of Babylon?

You block your ears and shield your eyes from the new things shown and spoken. The signs are dripping off of me like the prophecies from my tongue. I am at the beginning and the end of history, before ever a Jew was conceived. I am the Aleph and the Tav, the SIGN, Alpha and Omega, the King, Melkite, born as Jacob's Ladder (Halley's Comet) was setting on the horizon in the waters of Aquarius, who is Ea, Hayya, Yahweh.

    Jewish fortunes under the Roman Empire had nothing to do with the rise of Christianity. It had to do with Jewish rebellions against the authority of the pagan Roman emperors and their representatives. The First Jewish Revolt, as recorded by Josephus, resulted in the destruction of the Temple and the demise of the historic Israelite religion. This resulted in diminishing the authority of the Aaronic priesthood, which had consequences later. Then there was the Kitos Revolt. That involved Jews living throughout the East but ultimately resulted in the siege and conquest of Lydda with considerable bloodshed. Finally came the Bar Kochba Revolt, after Rabbi Akiva successfully overthrew the Aaronic priests and, fatally, backed a false Messiah who provoked the Roman Emperor Hadrian into a genocide so complete that Jews were effectively expelled from the land of Israel entirely -- Hadrian renamed it Palestine after the ancient enemies of the Jews -- and the center of Jewish life moved to Mesopotamia, where a large population of Jews lived who never returned to the Land of Israel as described in Ezekiel and Nehemiah. Thus the rabbis eventually created, by about 600 A.D., the Babylonian Talmud, which is the real basis of Rabbinic Judaism. None of this was because of Christians.

      The Talmud is a discourse and therefore not always is commentary literal. Additionally there is no way to ascertain if it’s talking specifically about Jesus as his name was very common. Plus, Jews don’t believe hell is eternal, so even were it to be talking about Jesus of the New Testament, it doesn’t really matter. For all intents and purposes, Jews take other Jews becoming heretics very seriously and however it was described his punishment would be it shouldn’t matter to you if you’re a cristian.
