Is there a group in existence that claim to know and live "true Judaism"? That is, ignoring all Jewish history and teachings as "traditions of men," but going solely by the OT (Hebrew Bible) and "recreating" "true Judaism"?
Do you think it would make sense to create such a group? To tell Jews that they don't have any understanding of what Judaism is, as true Judaism can be understood by looking at the OT alone. You don't include any of the scriptures or writings, such as the Talmud, because they are not in the Bible your parents bought for you and therefore they are irrelevant. You also include all books in the Bible your parents bought for you because if you have those exact books in your Bible, it must be right, no more and no less, "just because."
