    Drugs

    I've gotten the same type of vocabulary and anti-Semite remarks from my husband. The best thing to do is to say nothing in response and continue to do your best to live Torah as you pray for him and look for ways to bless him throughout the day. Always be consistently and immediately obedient to...

    Good preschool "curriculum" for Torah

    http://ffoz.org/Children/index.shtml First Fruits of Zion has a Children's Torah Club. I think it says it is for ages 6-10, but my 4 year old has been doing it along with the older kids and enjoys it. http://www.torahfamily.com/LLT.htm Torah Family's level 1 is for ages 4-8. I think they...

    Michael Rood ~ A Rood Awakening

    I did get the levity part ^_^ , but it sparked my curiosity about what an accurate portrayal of a high priest actually would look like, so I thought you or someone might be able to say so I wouldn't have to do the hard work of actually reading the scriptural descriptions myself. <----my lame...

    Michael Rood ~ A Rood Awakening

    My post was basically in response to this because Mr. Gordon is apparently a credentialed scholar as well, and he came to a different conclusion (and explains his reasons why) about the same document than these scholars referred to here did. I've never seen Mr. Gordon, in person or even a...

    Michael Rood ~ A Rood Awakening

    I've finished reading Nehemia Gordon's The Hebrew Yeshua vs. The Greek Jesus, and I am no scholar of Greek or Hebrew, so I can't comment from that viewpoint. But the way he explained why he thinks at least parts of Shem-Tov's Hebrew Matthew may possibly be from the original Hebrew and not...

    Mezuzah

    The reason why the proscribed method is to hang it at an angle is because the rabbis could not agree on whether it should be vertical or horizontal, so they compromised, according to what I read at this site: http://www.jewfaq.org/signs.htm Here are some more detailed instructions...

    Mezuzah

    Shmuel, I admire your ambition and creativity! I have absolutely no talent in writing any kind of script nicely, much less woodcarving, so I'm going to have to stick to printing them out. I'm so thankful to you, Brit, for sparking the idea about laminating the scrolls! Now, maybe I can finally...

    Mezuzah

    I've also heard of people carving it into the wood as well.

    A question for Messianic Judaism.

    You might find this article helpful: http://www.mercyseat.net/BROCHURES/marriagelicense.htm I actually reprinted the article here in this thread, which you may also want to read: http://www.christianforums.com/t1173360-define-marriage-as-you-understand-it.html Just to clarify, the...

    Mezuzah

    This merchant sells mezzuzah cases for $1.50 each, which is the least expensive I've found: http://www.israelshop1.com/pd_dark_brown.cfm This site has Torah in Paleo-Hebrew if you want to print mezzuzah scrolls in the ancient script: http://www.bethashem.org/torah.html...

    two house ...

    I thought we are grafted in when we "come to faith". We aren't grafted in to Israel? Are we grafted into something else? What am I not understanding about this? Romans 11:13 For I speak to you, the gentiles, inasmuch as I am an emissary to the gentiles, I esteem my service, 14 if somehow I...

    This is a link to a refutation of the MJAA position paper The Ephraimite Error, if you want to hear both sides: http://yourarmstoisrael.org/misc/?page=comments_truth_about&type=1 My conclusion to what I have studied about this so far is that I agree with the basic truth that we are all...

    Feeling a tad overwhelmed :(

    I still go through this periodically. I think it is like growth spurts. You're hungry and you gobble up a whole bunch of stuff, and then you're trying to digest it. I remember printing out the list of all 613 commandments and being so excited and thinking I could just incorporate everything...
