Is it still a joke if its not funny

 

[Zebra]

Hebrew and Jewish is the same thing

always?

 

[rosends]

always?

No, not at all.

Hebrew is the name of a language. It was also the label for a group of people (Ivrim ) . It stopped being used to delineate that people and they were tben known as the children of Israel. So while the labels loosely apply to similar groups both do not mean exactly the same thing .

Jewish is also used as a reference to the Yiddish language .

 

[Woodznutz]

The stuff that can be applied today, yes.

Lot of wisdom in God's ancient rules.

 

[Woodznutz]

Right, he was Hebrew.

You know why?

Cuz he loves coffee.

Moses was a Levite. Until Judaism took over after the return of the Jews from Babylon the law was administered by the Levites and Judges. Jesus pointed out that "The Jews sit in Moses seat".

 

[Woodznutz]

Based on what? Go ahead prove it

Moses was a Levite. The Jews call him and every other Israelite a Jew as part of their revisionist history of Israel.

Is it still a joke if its not funny

Only if you are out in a forest and a tree falls without anyone to hear it fall

 

[ding]

all, some, or none?

myself I do not think that we must obey those rules.

I am curious what others think.

Technically you don’t have to follow any rules because you have free will, right?

Why did God give us free will? Because it’s not virtuous to be forced to be virtuous. For virtue to have any value, it must be chosen freely of one’s own volition for no other reason or reward other than being virtuous for the sake of being virtuous.

If you read chapter 18 it starts with don’t do as they did in Egypt. So with respect to Chapter 18 they are raising their standards above the standards of where they came from.

Despite what some may believe, standards exist for logical reasons. When one deviates from the standard and normalizes their deviance to the standard, the reason the standard exists will be discovered through consequences. The problem with this is often times they get away with it. That’s because it is statistical in nature. But do it enough times and predictable surprises will eventually occur.

 

[Woodznutz]

Hebrew and Jewish is the same thing

Only 'linguistically' in that Hebrew is the language of Jewish scholars. Hebrews are the descendants of Eber, distilled down to the descendants of Jacob for Biblically historical purposes.

Also, the 10 tribes of the northern kingdom were never called Jews, but they were called Hebrews.

Can you show me textual proof beyond the book of Exodus?

 

[Woodznutz]

Can you show me textual proof beyond the book of Exodus?

Israelites are called Hebrews in these chapters.

• Old Testament (32)
• Genesis (6)
• Exodus (14)
• Deuteronomy (1)
• 1 Samuel (8)
• Jeremiah (2)
• Jonah (1)

 

[there4eyeM]

The lesson of the experiment of justification through written law is that "God" cannot be legislated into a box. The lesson of Christianity is that the immaterial, personal connection to "what is" can only be by individual revelation. This puts ultimate responsibility on the person. This is too great for most people to bear.

 

[rosends]

Israelites, or an Israelite, are/is called Hebrews in these chapters.

• Deuteronomy (1)

this is referring to slaves and may or may not be referring to the people we would see as Jewish. See the Ibn Ezra on Ex 21:2

• 1 Samuel (8)
• Jeremiah (2)
• Jonah (1)

those are great (though the Jeremiah references are to slaves also so the exact identity is debated - especially since one of the verses also uses "Yehudi" as well as a separate label).
