The Jewish Bible vs. Science (Guess who wins...)

[Morganfrost]

Also, the idea that Pasteur got "all his knowledge" from the Talmud is just plain silly. Even Jews don't accept the Talmud as scientifically authoritive. The Talmud proposes that lice are spontaneously created-- Pasteur proved that this was false. The Talmud suggests that burning a cat's placenta with a few other items and sprinkling the ashes near your bed will enable you to see the footprints of demons. I doubt Pasteur even bothered with that one.

[Morganfrost]

Not persuasive. First, the length of a lunar month is nice, but the Jewish year misses the solar year by enough to require the insertion, at various times, of an additional month. If you're shooting for accuracy, that's not all that impressive. As to fish, since all fish-- by definition-- have fins, but not all fish have scales, it's no great feat to announce that a fish with scales will also have fins. In fact, a fish without scales will also have fins.

@Morganfrost

lol what are you talking about? We insert the month during the leap year so everything is always accurate. Thats why our passover is always in the spring time. look at the muslim calendar, their ramamdan fasting could be in any of the 4 seasons.

Im suprised you say this is not impressive. This is over 3,300 years old that NASA had to prove with millions of dollars. nothing else comes close.

[Rastravolta]

@Josenros haha I like that you raise some pretty good questions about the Hebrew calendar but I would like to correct that Pesach is not a "jewish" holiday, it's the Lord's Feast. Anymore than the 9 Feasts in Scripture is a holiday..

[BringersOfTruth]

@Rastravolta

from the Torah directly Passover is 1 of the 3 festivals. The other 2 are Shavot and Sukkot.

[Moshikashitenai]

Who cares if the Torah is scientifically accurate? That doesn't mean it's true.

Please do not go into the medical field. You might kill someone unintentionally with ignorance.

[Moshikashitenai]

@BringersOfTruth ... what?

[Moshikashitenai]

@BringersOfTruth Are you kidding me dude? Why don't you go sprinkle the blood of dead birds onto a person with eczema or leprosy or something and see if that clears it up (Leviticus 14:1-32)! "Please don't go into the medical field. You might kill someone unintentionally with your ignorance."

[BringersOfTruth]

@Moshikashitenai

in leviticus 14:1-32 that is not leprorsy. It is a disease that does not exist any more. Leprorsy does no make your skin snow white.

[Moshikashitenai]

@BringersOfTruth That's why I said "eczema or leprosy or something..." I gave two examples and left room for other possibilities because I don't know what the skin disease was. The term used for the disease was leprosy, however it had a broad meaning that encapsulated other skin diseases. And it's L-E-P-R-O-S-Y. You made the same spelling mistake twice.

Archeology more and more proves the Torah.

[JonathanMoir]

That was dull as shit

[1tryingtoimprove]

Saying that a camels toe is soft or that it's 'splitting' is 'debatable' is not proof it is split.

The hoof has to be totally split the way it is in a pig to have the Halachic status of being split.

Woman 's ovulation could have been more stable back then as well and even today many probably still fit this paradigm.

[1tryingtoimprove]

'cud chewing rabbits' may not be in error. the usage of the word 'cud' (as used in the bible) may not mean the same thing both then and now. 1 possibility of what might have happened is something like this;

1) rudiments chew cud. Rabbits and cows are rudiments.

2) Oops, cows eat barf, rabbits eat poop and their stomachs are different.

3) Only rudiments chew cud.

4) Therefore, rabbits don't chew cud.

The meaning of 'cud' could have changed since then.

Other explanations could also be.

[1tryingtoimprove]

The Hebrew calendar adds a second month of Adar in some years to keep it from 'wandering' around the seasons. It is as accurate as any other calendar.

The video does not say that Torah says that a fish without scales cannot have fins.

It said that if it DOES have scales, then it must ALSO have fins; But it could have fins without scales.

Question 4 [cont.]: Given the tremendous variation in and limited predictability of fertility windows, an even better strategy to maximize the chances of prgenancy would be to have sex as one pleases without instituting a monthly moratorium. This practice seems to work best for a species in which most males produce over 85,000,000,000 sperm a day, and in which females can house only one every nine months.

[josenros]

Question 4: The period of ovulation for women is highly variable. Most women ovulate between day 11 and day 21 of their menstrual cycle (counting begins on the day of the last menstrual period). It needs to be stressed that this is only a m...edian and does not encompass the full range of statistical variation, which spans from 7 to 40 days in a normal population. In addition, numerous factors such as stress and illness can disrupt the cycle. Ovulation can also occur in the absence of a period.

[josenros]

Question 3 [cont.]: Finally, the classification of camel hooves as non-cloven is debatable. The toe may be softer than that of other ungulates, but the split is apparent. I submit that we don't have the phrase "cameltoe" for nothing...

[josenros]

Question 3: The same passage also states that rabbits chew their cud, which is a pretty egregious mistake. Rabbits are coprophages, not ruminants. Silly rabbit, rumination is for kids (get it?)! The digestive system of the hyrax is much clo...ser to that of a ruminant, but they don't chew their cud either. Oops!

The barbirusa is a rare species of pig that has split hooves and all the digestive acoutrements of a ruminant.

[josenros]

Question 2 [cont.]: Swordfish are an interesting case, since these finned fish shed their scales in adulthood, but rabbis for whatever reason have relegated them to the unclean pile.

[josenros]

Question 2: I refer you to superclass agnatha, phylum chordata. Agnatha lack both scales and a lower jaw (hence, their name), but many contain anterior dorsal, posterior dorsal, and caudal fins (e.g., lampreys). You are unlikley to find lam...preys at your farmer's market, but you'll find plenty of sturgeon, a scaleless finned fish that has had the rabbis scratching their heads for years. The Orthodox Union does not consider it to be kosher, but some responsa rabbis beg to differ.

[josenros]

Question 1 [cont.]: A penny may not sound like much, but if you put away a penny every 6.624 minutes, you'd amass quite a bit of wealth over a period of millenia. The Jewish calendar is about 3 hours late in its expectation of the new moon, and the scope of this error is growing. If you don't know this, then you don't know anything.

[josenros]

Question 1: The average Hebrew year length is aproximately 365.2468 days. The tropical average is aproximately 365.2422. This means that the Hebrew year lags behind the solar year by about one day every 216 years. This corresponds to an err...or margin of nearly 8 days over the past 1700 years. In other words, over time Jewish holidays will increasingly fall outside of their anticipated seasons, i.e. Pesach in winter.

I had to have this read to me (I am blind) but it sounds like a great video. I wish people would narrate their videos rather than just put the words up.

[Zenerax]

This just proves God and Judaism, too bad the Athiests are so backwards and primitive that they wont even accept obvious proof of God.

[BrooklynNotQueens]

@Zenerax The main point is that chabad is unrelated to Judaism and lubabwitchcraft is just a new age kabala cult.

so we Jews say:

ברוך אתה יהוה אלוהינו מלך העולם שלא עשני חסיד

ברוך אתה יהוה אלוהינו מלך העולם שלא עשני ליובאוויטשער

עבודה זרה= חסידות

יהודים ≠ חסידים

[DarkQuietWyattON]

@BrooklynNotQueens I studied with Chabad Rabbi's and they are not new age and not a cult. Those morons who think the Rebbe was Moshiach are nuts most Chabad do not think he was the Messiah.

He was a good man. He was a good leader.

Kabbalah Center in Hollywood....yeah, that is a cult. Real Kabbalah learned from real Rabbi's after you have studied Torah and Talmud for years, not a cult.

[BrooklynNotQueens]

@DarkQuietWyattON read the tanya. chabad is just another anti masturbation cult that promises its male followers magical powers aka "practical kabala". it preys on naive Jews who are clueless about the pagan nature of chassidus and don't know the arizal from the afikomen.

the main thing i learned when i studied with chabad is that their married men are supposed to use hookers when their wives are niddah.

chabad is also antizionist.....are you antizionist?

[DarkQuietWyattON]

@BrooklynNotQueens -------I have read the Tanya. I have not known a Lubavitcher to use a hooker but perhaps some do. I am not a Lubavitcher. I simply studied with a few Rabbi's who I fould pleasant and easy to learn from. I have not studied Kabbalah as I am not old enough and do not have a strong enough background even though I was raised born and raised Jewish.

No, I am a Zionist.

I was merely saying I found Chabad Rabbi's helpful, not harmful but I supposed we can agree to disagree.

[AirplaneRider]

Great video. Especially that part about the Earth sitting on four pillars and having four corners. Spot on.

[Torahcode]

The video is simply fantastic,thank you.

[rujtj]

0:55

It must be 1000$, not 100$.

So actually there is even much more accuracy!

[BringersOfTruth]

@rujtj

i fixed the error thank you

[HeadNtheClouds]

Go Israel !! This would be good if you put some music in it!, How about some old Klesmer music? Shalom!

[alosttribemember1]

well done

[KabbalahSherry]

This is an incredible video Avraham!  Thank you so much for putting it out there for the masses! I want the whole world to know how important Judaism is, and how completely ahead of their time the Rabbis and Sages where! If people knew that all the greatest Sages knew of this wisdom eons ago.... perhaps they'd take the Bible more seriously! ~ Thank you again! You will be blessed!

[aviyahu01]

absolutely fantastic!
