Hi, my name is Moshe (Moses in Hebrew). I am an Israeli citizen somewhat fluent in the Hebrew scriptures and (oddly enough) a practicing Hassidic Orthodox Jew, but I am very curious about the origins and teachings of Jesus and have been studying the Word on the internet (completely on my own) for about a year. My Rabbi and friends in my Jewish circles have no interest discussing this subject on an intellectual level, yet I have many questions that I would like to respectfully address, as my musings are purely hypothetical at this point. Although several of my family members are believing Christians (my mother converted to Judaism from Christianity), I do not yet consider myself a Christian, mostly because of the requirement to worship/pray
to a human, which I believe is forbidden to Jews in the Torah, but I do see amazing parallels in the Old/New Testament scriptures and teachings of Jesus in comparison to Hassidic Jewish thought. Anybody up for a friendly exchange of information?
