@AmishNation - and hell won't exist until Yashua comes back.

@AmishNation - Jewish Tradition is rarely scriptural. They Add to the law, and now it would seem that they don't read. It talks about the angels rebelling in scripture.
-
@therightintelectual The Messiah of Jewish tradition, being one of God's workers, would have no need to battle Satan who is just another of God's workers.
-
@therightintelectual This view of hell (Gehinnom) was imported into Judaism from Zoroastrianism, and it appears to have supplanted the earlier concept of Sheol.
-
@therightintelectual The rabbinic tradition draws a distinction between Sheol and Gehenna or "Gehinnom." Originally, Judaism described life after death as a bleak underworld named Sheol, which was known as the common pit or grave of humanity. However, with the influence of Persian thought and the passing of time, the notion of "hell" crept into Jewish tradition and became associated with the Biblical word Gehinnom or Gei Hinnom (the valley of Hinnom).

@therightintelectual In the Jewish tradition, Satan is an angel who faithfully serves God as a prosecuting attorney - one who accuses men of wickedness and impiety. At the direction of God, Satan may be permitted to test these accusations, such as in Job. In this view, Satan's goal is not to lead men away from their faithfulness to God, but merely to reveal the true depths of their devotion.
Don't tell other people they don't know what they are speaking about until you've done your research.

Gary Greenberg has some similar approaches with regards to Egypt. Though I think he goes a little bit too far in claiming that Israel was a combination of exiled Egyptian Atenists (the exodus where Moses is an Atenist priest), he does do a great job at pointing out that the vast majority of the old testament has elements rooted in Egyptian mythology, word for word correspondence in many locations.

sounds like the kabala to me
Actually Hinduism isnt about thousands of gods its all one God who comes in many forms and belive we all worship the one God even if you are a Shinto, Hindu, Sikh, Muslims, Christian, Taoist, Jew, etc as it is a Universal God like Zoroastrinism

@Mitchx42 Hey thank you! I'll definitely check that out.
I'm really not too strong on Hinduism between say 300BCE and 200CE. I'm very curious of what changes might have been made during that time frame.
