  • The melodies of the high holy days....it moves me almost to tears each year!

  • rabbis, holy holidays do sex with each other.rabbis' Yom Kippur, "the Jewish feast of girls do sex. ...

  • @TheTrueDavid yes this is what ive been told and i am trying to confirm it.

  • @alexizs77 Doesn't fulfill mean to carry out or to bring to realization, to perform or do, as in a person’s duty? If Yeshua fulfilled Torah that simply means He observed it and taught the heart of it to others (Matthew 5:17-19). Those who claim to follow Yeshua should then also be observing Torah. Israel though does have the calling of being a light to the world and teaching Torah to Gentiles (even the New Testament affirms this; Acts 15:21, Romans 11:12, 29; so Christians misunderstand).

  • On Yom Krappur, everyone farts in the synagogue.

  • @cipantat92 MILLIONS WERE KILLED IN THE NAME OF YOUR DIEATY> J- MAN. That is the blood that has been spilled. GOD is one . EXO019:006 And ye shall be unto me a kingdom of priests, and an holy nation. These are the words which thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel.

    IF JESUS FULFILLED THE LAW, WHY WOULD GOD SAY THAT THE CHILDREN OF ISRAEL WILL TEACH HIS LAW TO THE REMAINING GENTILE NATIONS?

  • But there is no sure way that we as Jews can get salvation. By doing good works alone that does not fulfill the need for a God who loves and cares about us who would even send His Son to die for us. Y'Shua Jesus fulfills that need that I have. Only He can fulfill that need that we all have. I have found that Judaism by itself is a lonely road; with Jesus as a fulfillment, it is a road of grace and peace even though life is not always easy.

  • But what happened that the most important act of Kippur - the sprinkling of the blood on the mercy seat and the people - was done away with at the destruction of the temple and scattering of the Jews in 70 A.D.?

    Where is the blood Kippur? Where in the bible does God say He would do away with it?

    The bible does say Messiah would come and make an end of transgression.

    Perhaps Messiah came. Perhaps His name is Yeshua.

    Perhaps God fulfilled His promise to Abraham and Israel.

    Yes, indeed!

  • Yom kippur means permission to sin another year.

  • Eaglefan, the Torah (Deuteronomy 11;26) mentions about that we Jews can either choose a positive path that leads to a fulfilling life, or choose a negative one which damages our soul. The good path is the mitzvos, G-d gave us which nourishs our soul & spreads spir energy through the world. - in regards to forgiveness, we receive atonement by praying to G-d & seeking to improve.

    I long for the day when Hashem's Glory will fill the Earth, & all us Jews will come home to Israel
