Posted by me on another forum.
I would like your thoughts on all of this after you read it.
The little most known fact about Judaism is about their holy books. Many believe that the Jewish holy book is nothing more than simply what Christians call the Old Testament. What is not known is the fact that the Jewish holy book consists of the Talmud. In fact it is reguarded by Orthodox Jews as above even the Scriptures.
Erubin 21b (Soncino edition): "My son, be more careful in the observance of the words of the Scribes than in the words of the Torah (Old Testament)."
There are two versions of the Talmudic books. The Jerusalem Talmud and the Babylonian Talmud.
The Babylonian Talmud supercedes the Jerusalem Talmud.
"The authority of the Babylonian Talmud is also greater than that of the Jerusalem Talmud. In cases of doubt the former is decisive." -R.C. Musaph-Andriesse, page 40 of the
From Torah to Kabbalah: A Basic Introduction to the Writings of Judaism
This is shown with the black Ethiopian Jewish people which are discriminated against because they did not and still do not follow the Talmudic books as they never had them available.
From September 29, 1992 page 4 of the
NY Times:
"The problem is that Ethiopian Jewish tradition goes no further than the Bible or Torah; the later Talmud and other commentaries that form the basis of modern traditions never came their way."
Because they are not traffickers in Talmudic tradition, the black Ethiopian Jews are discriminated against and have been forbidden by the Zionists to perform marriages, funerals and other services in the Israeli state.
Rabbi Joseph D. Soloveitchik is regarded as one of the most influential rabbis of the 20th century, the "unchallenged leader" of Orthodox Judaism and the top international authority on halakha (Jewish religious law). Soloveitchik was responsible for instructing and ordaining more than 2,000 rabbis, "an entire generation" of Jewish leadership.
The
NY Times later speaks about Rabbi Joseph D. Soloveitchik.
From April 10, 1993 page 38 of the
NY Times:
"Soloveitchik came from a long line of distinguished Talmudic scholars...Until his early 20s, he devoted himself almost exclusively to the study of the Talmud...He came to Yeshiva University's Elchanan Theological Seminary where he remained the pre-eminent teacher in the Talmud...He held the title of Leib Merkin professor of Talmud...sitting with his feet crossed in front of a table bearing an open volume of the Talmud."
Also in Britain's
Jewish Chronicle of March 26, 1993 states that in religious school (yeshiva), Jews are "devoted to the Talmud to the exclusion of everything else."
The Ethiopians are not the only Jews who are discriminated against. There is also a small sect known as Karaites that try to only follow the Old Testament Scriptures. They have been historically persecuted by the Orthodox Jews.

Gloats over Christ Dying Young
A passage from Sanhedrin 106 gloats over the early age at which Jesus died: "Hast thou heard how old Balaam (Jesus) was?--He replied: It is not actually stated but since it is written, Bloody and deceitful men shall not live out half their days it follows that he was thirty-three or thirty-four years old."

Kallah 51a."The elders were once sitting in the gate when two young lads passed by; one covered his head and the other uncovered his head. Of him who uncovered his head Rabbi Eliezer remarked that he is a *******. Rabbi Joshua remarked that he is the son of a niddah (a child conceived during a woman's menstrual period). Rabbi Akiba said that he is both a ******* and a son of a niddah.
"They said, 'What induced you to contradict the opinion of your colleagues?' He replied, "I will prove it concerning him." He went to the lad's mother and found her sitting in the market selling beans.
"He said to her, 'My daughter, if you will answer the question I will put to you, I will bring you to the world to come.' (eternal life). She said to him, 'Swear it to me.'
"Rabbi Akiba, taking the oath with his lips but annulling it in his heart, said to her, 'What is the status of your son?' She replied, 'When I entered the bridal chamber I was niddah (menstruating) and my husband kept away from me; but my best man had intercourse with me and this son was born to me.' Consequently the child was both a ******* and the son of a niddah.

Gemara Rosh Hashanah 25b).
