May 8	revised	How are sorcery or witchcraft viewed in Judaism and Jewish Mysticism? added 8 characters in body
Apr 25	comment	Arabic and Angels @HodofHod Isee. Now if we carefully compare both languages in terms of vocabulary and verbosity, then Hebrew is hugely deficient with many words for various objects whereas if you look at Arabic then there is a huge range of vocabulary (e.g. different words for different kinds of camels, differnt words for different kinds of winds).There are different names for each of the 5 fingers of hand in Arabic. There is no word for "Index Finger" for instance has no words in Hebrew at all but Arabic has that!
Apr 25	comment	Arabic and Angels @HodofHod Thanks for adding to my knowledge BTW.
Apr 20	comment	Arabic and Angels @ Seth J No one here is questioning the holiness of Torah/Tankh from the Jewish perspective. An nither this site is just confined for the Jews to participate. Belief has to be rational or logical in order to be valid and accepted by the masses! But individually speaking, one is free to beleive in the holiness of whatever one wants to.
Apr 19	comment	Why usury or interest on loan is illegal within Jews and legal for non-Jews @Seth J I like to know the philosophical justification.

Apr 19	comment	Why usury or interest on loan is illegal within Jews and legal for non-Jews @ Shmuel Brin If that was the scenario, then that was a cruelty done to Jews. But again, the question remains there: Why jews are allowed to earn interest from others and not from the Jews?
Apr 19	comment	Why usury or interest on loan is illegal within Jews and legal for non-Jews @ Double AA This does not make sense at all! This is prejedice.
Apr 19	comment	Arabic and Angels Can you justify your claim? What advantage does Hebrew has over Arabic? Arabic is alive and will remain alive for the times to come! The highest form of Arabic literature is the Quran. Compare the Quran that was revealed 1400 years ago and compare the one now...no differnce at all. What you will say about Torah? You are not even sure what language Abraham(may peace and blessings be upon him) and Moses (may peace and blessings be upon him) used to speak!

Apr 6	comment	Is it permissible for a Jewish woman to marry a Muslim man and vice versa? @Seth So according to what you and others are saying here: "A person who is born to a Jew mother, but later converted Islam can legally marry a Jew according to Judaism."!
Apr 6	comment	Is it permissible for a Jewish woman to marry a Muslim man and vice versa? @Seth Can you please explain where does it say in t Exodus 31:12-17 to justify what you want to elaborate here?
Apr 4	comment	Is it permissible for a Jewish woman to marry a Muslim man and vice versa? @J. C. Salomon Dear brother! You and others here are always welcome to chat with me at a convnient time that suits us. Lets refer to the sciptures and seek the truth together!
Apr 4	comment	Is it permissible for a Jewish woman to marry a Muslim man and vice versa? @Isaac Moses We are children of Abraham(may peace and blessings be upon him). Our interpretation is different but we share common roots and our core law is mor or less the same. What is really makes things bitter and conflicting when facts are distorted and concoctions take their place because of sectarianism and prejeudice. I am here to learn, search and seek the real facts based on genuine theological evidence. I presume that this forum is not based on one Jewish sect but represents Judaism in its entireity. Hope this forum helps me in my objective!
Apr 3	comment	Is Hebrew the mother of all languages spoken today in the world? Can you please provide an authentic source or justfication of the above claim?

Apr 3	comment	Is Hebrew the mother of all languages spoken today in the world? @Eytan Yammer The difference between the Shakesperean age and the modern English age is hardly 500 years. But if you talk about the Hebrew of Torah, or the language that Abraham, Yitzhak, Yishmael and Yaakov(may peace and blessing be upon all of them) used to speak then the time difference is so huge. That really makes me feel to doubt if the modern Hebrew or Yiddish is close enough to convey the full meaning of what message the scriptures would convey. Also what is Judeo Arabic or Ladino? Thankyou for adding so much to my information.
Mar 28	comment	Is Hebrew the mother of all languages spoken today in the world? But what is really the assurance or guarantee that Hebrew language spoken today is the same Hebrew Abraham (may peace and blessings be upon him) used to speak? Also how much of Yiddish is classical Hebrew? Thanks for the information. :)
