Twisting the Talmud

 

The sheer ignorance on full display on social media is reminiscent of the 1930s and even earlier.  The attack on the Jewish people is in full swing but branded as anti-Zionist.  Make no mistake, these people really do HATE the Jews.  What's new?  Nothing; they are saying out loud.  Ronnie and Jim delve into the ignorance to shed light on this troubling trend.  Does the Talmud actually condone pedophilia and other disgusting charges?  In actuality, it's all baseless claims and nothing new.  The same propaganda has been plaguing the world throughout the centuries.  Don't take the word of populist loudmouths on X or Facebook, do some research yourself, without the confirmation bias.  You might be surprised to learn how brilliant the Talmud actually is.

Some things were written and make up the Torah and Tanach. Others were passed down orally.  Quite a simple premise.  Without the oral instructions what exactly would be circumcised? Perhaps your nose.  Then there how to slaughter and this statement "As I commanded you:" This teaches us that there is a (detailed) command concerning slaughter – how to slaughter – and these are the laws of slaughter that were taught to Moshe from Sinai (i.e., from G-d).” - Rashi

Then of course there's the no working on Shabbat.  What does that mean?  What is work? God didn't leave much up to the imagination as He was pretty specific.  Throughout the Tanach we could probably guess what constitutes work, yet the Talmud discusses the topic at length. 

The complexity of understanding the Talmud is a life-long journey.  It's not for everyone and shouldn't be. Leave it to the dedicated few that hold the mission of being the light unto the Nations.  A little story that I revere greatly:

THE CHIMNEY SWEEP CONVERSATION – LEARNING GEMARA 

A young man asks to study with a Talmudic scholar. The scholar gives him a taste of 

Talmudic reasoning. 

“But I already know logic, what do I need Talmudic reasoning?” protests the student, 

“Aristotelian syllogisms, truth-functional logic, predicate logic, set theory everything.” 

“That’s not Jewish logic,” replies the scholar, but the student persists, and so the scholar 

offers to show him the difference between “logic” and what we find in the Talmud. 

“Here is the question,” says the scholar. “Two men go down a chimney. One has a dirty face, 

one has a clean face. Which one washes?” 

“That’s easy,” says the student, “the one with the dirty face.” 

“Wrong,” says the scholar. “The one with the clean face looks at the other one, sees a dirty 

face, and thinks his must also be dirty, and so the one with the clean face washes.” 

“I see,” says the student. “It is a little more complicated than I thought, but I can do this. 

Please test me again.” 

“All right,” sighs the scholar. “Here is the question. Two men go down a chimney. One has a 

dirty face, one has a clean face. Which one washes?” 

In surprise the student answers, “Just as you said, the one with the clean face washes.” 

“Wrong,” says the scholar. “The one with the dirty face observes his companion looking at 

him and making ready to wash his face. ‘Ah ha,’ he thinks. ‘He must see a dirty face, and it’s 

mine.’ And so the one with the dirty face washes.” 

“It is even more complicated than I yet realized,” says the student, “but now I do 

understand. Please test me once more.” 

“Just once more,” says the scholar. “Here is the question. Two men go down a chimney. One 

has a dirty face, one has a clean face. Which one washes?” 

“Now I know the answer,” says the student. “The one with the dirty face washes, just as I 

thought in the beginning, but for a different reason.” 

“Wrong,” says the scholar. “If two men go down a chimney, how can only one have a dirty 

face? Go and study. When you know Jewish logic, come back.”

A KNOCK-OUT PUNCH:THE "LAST AND FINAL SACRIFICE" TAKES THE TEN-COUNT

A reposting of Uri Yosef’s THE "LAST AND FINAL SACRIFICE" TAKES THE TEN-COUNT after a Christian apologist made this comment recently. May it be a light to anyone seeking the G-d of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.

“The reason Jews as a whole haven't embraced Jesus Christ as Messiah is partly because of hard hearts, and partly because Jesus came to die for our sins. It was foreseen by God the Father that He would be rejected, per Isaiah 53 - which Jews have NEVER been able to "explain" - which then paved the way for His once-for-all sacrifice for sin.”

A KNOCK-OUT PUNCH:THE "LAST AND FINAL SACRIFICE" TAKES THE TEN-COUNT

Professor Uri Yosef 

I. INTRODUCTION

Christian missionaries claim that those who do not accept Jesus as their lord and

savior, which includes the Jewish people, are doomed to burn in “hell” because

they cannot have their sins forgiven by God. This claim is rationalized with the

allegation that, in Biblical times, the only way to bring about the remission of sins

was via the blood of a certain animal. This animal had to be brought to the priest

to be slaughtered at the altar in the Sanctuary, first while in the portable

Sanctuary and later in the Temple, as a sacrificial offering. According to this

claim, since there has been no Temple standing in Jerusalem since the year 70

C.E., valid sacrificial offerings can no longer be made and, therefore, the only

way for Jews to have their sins forgiven is through the blood shed by Jesus in his

"sacrificial" death on the cross. In other words, the claim is that the blood of

Jesus, who was allegedly sacrificed by God (the "Father") as a demonstration of

his great love for mankind,

has once and for all removed the stain of “Original

Sin" from those who follow Jesus (the "Son"). This act of love by God allegedly

made Jesus the "last and final sacrifice" forever.

There are two main aspects to the claim that Jesus was "the last and final

sacrifice". The first concerns the suitability of Jesus and his death as a sacrificial

offering for the remission of sins. The second aspect, which was investigated in

another essay, concerns the need for blood in the atonement process.

This essay examines the suitability of Jesus and the manner in which he died as

a sacrificial offering for the remission of sins.

II. THE CHRISTIAN PERSPECTIVE VERSUS THE SPECIFICATIONS IN THE HEBREW BIBLE

The process for testing this claim by Christian missionaries consists of

contrasting the requirements concerning sacrificial offerings, as specified in the

Hebrew Bible, against the accounts in the New Testament that describe the

death of Jesus on the cross as a sacrificial offering. As part of this analysis, it is

important to bear in mind the following two conditions that existed during the life

of Jesus, at the time of his death, and for several decades following his death:

 The Second Temple was still standing in Jerusalem

 The Hebrew Bible was the Scripture in force

The salient issue to be addressed, and answered, is:

According to the requirements set forth in the Hebrew Bible, was Jesus a valid sacrificial

offering, and was his death by crucifixion an acceptable process, for remission of sins?

The analytical phase of the testing process identifies ten elements for which the

respective accounts in the New Testament are compared with the specifications

provided in the Hebrew Bible, primarily in the Torah.

One

According to the accounts in the New Testament, Jesus was crucified by

Roman soldiers:

John 19:18,23(KJV) – (18) Where they crucified him, and two other with him, on either

side one, and Jesus in the midst.

(23) Then the soldiers, when they had crucified Jesus, took his garments, and made

four parts, to every soldier a part; and also his coat: now the coat was without seam,

woven from the top throughout. [See also Matthew 27:35; Mark 15:24; Luke 23:33.]

According to the Levitical Law of Sacrifice in the Torah, the animal brought as

a sin sacrifice had to be slaughtered by the person who offered it:

Leviticus 4:27-29 - (27) And if any one person from among the common people sins

unwittingly, by performing one of the commandments of the Lord which may not be

done, and incurs guilt; (28) Or if his sin, which he has committed, is made known to

him, then he shall bring his sacrifice, an unblemished female goat, for his sin which he

has sinned. (29) And he shall lay his hand upon the head of the sin offering, and he

shall slaughter the sin offering in the place of the burnt offering.

Two

According to the Levitical Law of Sacrifice in the Torah, some of the blood of

the (sin) sacrifice had to be rubbed by the priest with his finger on the horns of

the altar in the Temple, and the rest had to be poured out at the base of the

sacrificial altar. The fat of the sacrifice had to be removed and burnt:

Leviticus 4:30-31 - (30) And the priest shall take some of its blood with his finger, and

put [it] upon the horns of the altar [used] for the burnt offering; and [then] he shall

pour out all of [the rest of] its blood at the base of the altar. (31) And he shall remove

all of its fat, as was removed the fat from the sacrificial peace offerings; and the priest

shall burn it upon the altar for a pleasant fragrance to the Lord; and [thus] shall the

priest make an atonement for him, and he shall be forgiven.

 The New Testament is silent on what was done with the blood of Jesus and

with the fat of his body.

Three

According to the accounts in the New Testament, Jesus was beaten,

whipped, and dragged on the ground before being crucified:

Matthew 26:67(KJV) - Then did they spit in his face, and buffeted him; and others

smote him with the palms of their hands, [See also Mark 14:65; Luke 22:63; John 18:22.]

Matthew 27:26,30-31(KJV) – (26)Then released he Barabbas unto them: and when he

had scourged Jesus, he delivered him to be crucified.

(30) And they spit upon him, and took the reed, and smote him on the head. (31) And

after that they had mocked him, they took the robe off from him, and put his own

raiment on him, and led him away to crucify him. [See also Mark 15:15-20; John 19:1-3.]

According to the Torah, a sacrificial animal had to be without any physical

defects or blemishes:

Deuteronomy 17:1 - You shall not sacrifice to the Lord your God an ox or a sheep that

has in it a blemish or any bad thing, for that is an abomination to the Lord, your God.

Sidebar Note: As a born Jew, Jesus was circumcised on the eighth day following

his birth, a ritual that leaves a scar (Genesis 17:10-13; the “sign of the covenant”).

The circumcision of Jesus is mentioned in the New Testament (Luke 2:21), yet Paul

refers to circumcision as being tantamount to mutilation (Galatians 5:11-12;

Philippians 3:2).

Four

 According to the New Testament, Jesus was "the Lamb of God" whose bones

may not be broken [a reference to the Paschal Lamb of Exodus 12:46 and

Numbers 9:12]:

John 1:29(KJV) – The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold

the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.

John 19:36(KJV) - For these things were done, that the scripture should be fulfilled, A

bone of him shall not be broken.

 According to the Torah, the Paschal Lamb was not offered for the removal of

sins. Rather, it was a festive, or commemorative, offering. Yom Kippur (the

Day of Atonement) would have been a more appropriate time for a sin

offering:

Numbers 29:11 - One young male goat for a sin offering, beside the sin offering of

atonement, and the continual burnt offering, and its meal offering, and their drink

offerings. [Yom Kippur – Individual sin offering]

Leviticus 16:15 - He shall then slaughter the he goat of the people's sin offering and

bring its blood inside the dividing curtain, and he shall do with its blood as he did with

the blood of the bull and sprinkle it upon the cover of the ark, and before the cover of

the ark. [Yom Kippur – Communal sin offering]

Five

 According to the Torah, the Paschal Lamb had to be slaughtered and its

blood used to place markings on the side-posts and lintels of the entrances to

the dwelling. Moreover, the meat had to be roasted and eaten, and whatever

was not consumed by the time the Israelites were to leave their homes, had

to be burnt and destroyed:

Exodus 12:6-10 - (6) And you shall keep it under watch until the fourteenth day of this

month; and the entire congregation of the community of Israel shall slaughter it at

dusk. (7) And they shall take [some] of its blood, and place it on the two doorposts and

on the lintel, on the houses in which they will eat it. (8) And they shall eat the meat in

that night, roasted over fire, and [with] unleavened bread; with bitter herbs they shall

eat it. (9) You shall not eat from it raw, nor boiled in water; but roasted over fire, its

head with its legs, and with its inner parts. (10) And you shall not leave any of it until

morning; and that which left over until the morning you shall burn in the fire.

 According to the accounts in the New Testament this was not done with

Jesus after his death. In fact, Jesus was buried.

Matthew 27:57-60(KJV) – (57) When the even was come, there came a rich man of

Arimathaea, named Joseph, who also himself was Jesus' disciple: (58) He went to

Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus. Then Pilate commanded the body to be

delivered. (59) And when Joseph had taken the body, he wrapped it in a clean linen

cloth, (60) And laid it in his own new tomb, which he had hewn out in the rock: and he

rolled a great stone to the door of the sepulchre, and departed. [See also Mark 15:42-46;

Luke 23:50-53; John 19:38-42.]

Six

 According to the New Testament, the death of Jesus was a sacrificial offering

that expiated the sins of mankind for all times:

Hebrews 10:10,18(KJV) – (10) By the which will we are sanctified through the offering

of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.

(18) Now where remission of these is, there is no more offering for sin. [See also

Romans 6:10; Hebrews 9:12.]

 According to the Torah, the Passover (sin) sacrifice, a male-goat, had to be

offered on an individual (per household) basis, not as a communal offering:

Numbers 28:22 - And one young male goat for a sin offering, to make atonement for

you.

Seven

 According to the New Testament, the death and blood of Jesus took care of

(almost) all sins:

Hebrews 9:22(KJV) – And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and

without shedding of blood is no remission.

 According to the Levitical Law of Sacrifice in the Torah, the sacrificial sin

offering brought atonement only for unintentional sins, except as noted in

Leviticus 5:1-6, 20-26[Leviticus 5:1-6, 6:1-7 in Christian Bibles]:

Numbers 15:27-31 - (27) And if a person sins inadvertently, then he shall offer a female

goat in its first year as a sin offering. (28) And the priest shall atone for the erring

person who sinned inadvertently before the Lord in order to make atonement on his

behalf; and it shall be forgiven him. (29) For the native born of the children of Israel

and the stranger who resides among them, one law shall apply to him who sins

inadvertently. (30) And the person who does anything presumptuously, whether he is a

native born or a stranger, that person blasphemes the Lord; and that person shall be

cut off from among his people. (31) Because he has scorned the word of the Lord, and

has violated his commandment; that person shall surely be cut off, for his iniquity is

upon him.

Eight

 According to the New Testament, the death of Jesus brought about the

remission of sins yet uncommitted, and of sins of those yet to be born:

Hebrews 10:18(KJV) – Now where remission of these is, there is no more offering for

sin.

 According to the Levitical Law of Sacrifice in the Torah, sacrifices could bring

atonement only for sins committed prior to the offering of the sacrifice. No

sacrifice was provided for the atonement of sins committed after the sacrifice

was offered and, thus, no sacrifice can bring atonement for sins of people

born after it was offered. This includes both טּאתָחַ (haTAT)], a sin offering,

described in Leviticus 4:1-5:13, and שׁםָאָ (aSHAM), a guilt offering,

described in Leviticus 5:14-26. Had there been, among the listed sacrifices,

even one kind of sin or guilt offering that could bring atonement for future

sins, the person who would have offered that particular sacrifice would not

have had to do so again for the rest of his life. Moreover, Yom Kippur (the

Day of Atonement), which is ordained by the Torah as an annual Holy Day

(Leviticus 16:29-34), would have had to be celebrated by the Israelites only

the very first time after the giving of the Torah at Mt. Sinai, had they used one

of those "super" sacrificial offerings that could atone for sins of the future.

The claim by the author of Hebrews, that there are no more sin offerings

required following the death of Jesus, is false for other reasons as well:

 The Second Temple stood in Jerusalem for nearly 40 years following the death of

Jesus, during which time literally thousands of animals were offered as sacrifices

of all sorts, including sin and guilt offerings, as prescribed by the Torah.

 The Hebrew Bible contains prophecies about the building of the Third Temple in

the messianic era, and of the resumption of the sacrificial system at that time. All

the types of sacrificial offerings described in the Hebrew Bible will be made on the

sacrificial altar [חַ בֵּזְמִ (mizBE'ah)] in the Temple, including both the טּאתָחַ and

שׁםָאָ sacrificial offerings. In other words, the sacrificial system, which has been

in a state of suspension since the year 70 C.E., when the Romans destroyed the

Second Temple, will be completely restored in the messianic era:

Ezekiel 43:21-22 - And you shall take the bull of the sin offering, and he [the priest]

shall burn it at the edge of the Temple, outside the Sanctuary. (22) And on the

second day you shall offer an unblemished he-goat for a sin offering, and they [the

priests] shall purify the altar as they purified it with the bull. [See also: Isaiah 56:7;

Jeremiah 33:17-18; Ezekiel 40:39,46-47, 41:42, 42:13, 43:13,15,18-19,22,25-27,

44:27,29, 45:17,19,22-23,25, 46:20, 47:1; Zechariah 14:21.]

Nine

 According to the New Testament, God's "only begotten son" died on the cross

for the sins of mankind, and all who accept this belief are "saved" (i.e., get

salvation) and will go to heaven:

Romans 5:8-11(KJV) – (8) But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we

were yet sinners, Christ died for us. (9) Much more then, being now justified by his

blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him. (10) For if, when we were enemies,

we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we

shall be saved by his life.(11) And not only so, but we also joy in God through our Lord

Jesus Christ, by whom we have now received the atonement. [See also Acts 10:43;

1Corinthians 15:3; 1Peter 3:18.]

 The Hebrew Bible strictly prohibits (human) vicarious atonement, and

mandates that everyone is responsible for his or her own sins:

Deuteronomy 24:16 - Fathers shall not be put to death because of children, nor shall

children be put to death for fathers; each person shall be put to death for his own sin.

[See also Exodus 32:31-33; Numbers 35:33.]

Ten

 According to the New Testament, Jesus was "God manifest in the flesh" (this

would make it a human sacrifice):

Romans 8:3(KJV) - For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh,

God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in

the flesh: [See also 1Timothy 3:16; 1John 4:2.]

 The Hebrew Bible strictly prohibits human sacrifices. The concept of human

sacrifices to a deity is foreign to Judaism. Human sacrifice is a pagan rite:

Leviticus 18:21 – And you shall not give any of your offspring to pass through the fire

for Molech, and shall not profane the name of your God; I am the Lord. [See also

Deuteronomy 18:10; Jeremiah 7:31, 19:32; Ezekiel 23:37-39.]

Show Notes May 7th, 2023

The chronology of the Hebrew scriptures is an elaborate system of lifespans, "generations," and other means by which the passage of events is measured, beginning with Creation and extending through other significant events. The time span of the Hebrew scriptures is almost 4000 years of history. beginning with Creation and ending around 164 BCE with the last Prophet.

In that 4000 years, no one has ever seen a devil, ever seen a demon, seen a demon cast out(exorcism), never seen a demon possession (body snatching). 

Jews don't worry about such things, or fallen angels having sex with women, this does not happen. Noah never had a problem with them. Abraham, Issac, Jacob, Moses, Aaron, David, Solomon, Isaiah, Jeremiah, etc never encountered demons and devils! 

Then the Greek NT comes along centuries after the last Hebrew verse. The time span of the NT is less than 100 years. In the NT, demons are seen about 100 times. All of a sudden in that 100 years, there are demon-possession(body snatching),  demons cast out(exorcisms). None of which ever happened in the history of the Jews.

Jesus has a conversation with demons!! That should be a hint about jesus. Jesus and the disciples seem to run into them around every corner!! 

There are many many reason why the greek new testament is fiction, jesus/yahusha talking to demons is just one of them!  (From a FB friend) 

Q: How many times did Jesus cast out a demon in the Bible?

A: In the Gospels, I find 12 instances where Jesus is said to have “cast out a demon.” In the following chart, I will list who had the

demon (was demon-possessed), and the verses where it mentions each instance.

Who Had The Demon               Verses

Many (Mk 1:32-34)(Mt 8:16-17)(Lk 4:40-41)

People In Galilee (Mk 1:39)

A Man At The Capernaum Synagogue (Mk 1:21-28)(Lk 4:31-37)

A Man In Capernaum (Mt 9:32-33)

A Second Man In Capernaum? (Mt 12:22)(Lk 11:14)

People In Capernaum? (Lk 6:17-19) 

The Gentile Woman’s Daughter (Mt 15:21-28)(Mk 7:24-30)

Mary Magdalene (And Other Women) (Lk 8:2)(Mk 16:9)

People At The Sea Of Galilee   (Mk 3:10-12)

Two Men At Gergesenes (Gadarenes) (Mt 8:28-32)(Mk 5:1-13)(Lk 8:26-33)

A Man’s Son At Caesarea Philippi? (Mt 16:13) (Mt 17:14-21)(Mk 9:17-29)(Lk 9:38-47)

In (Mt 10:1,8)(Mk 6:7,13)(Lk 9:1)(Mk 3:15), Jesus gave His 12 disciples (and the 70 – Lk 10:1,17-20) “power over unclean spirits.”

In 5 of these instances, Jesus “spoke” to the demon in the process of casting it out. 

***Note: It is interesting to note that Jesus is never shown to cast out a demon, or speak to a demon in the Gospel of John.

Q: How many times did Jesus speak to demons in the Bible?

Jesus spoke to demons “in the Gospels” In regards to this, The 7 times that Jesus spoke to demons.

Where Did Jesus Speak To A Demon              Verses

In The Wilderness (To Satan) (Mt 4:1-11)(Mk 1:12-13)(Lk 4:1-13)

At The Capernaum Synagogue (Mk 1:21-28)(Lk 4:31-37)

At Peter & Andrew’s House (Mk 1:32-34)(Mt 8:16-17)(Lk 4:40-41)

At The Sea Of Galilee (Mk 3:10-12)

At Gergesenes (Gadarenes) (Mt 8:28-32)(Mk 5:1-13)(Lk 8:26-33) 

A Man’s Son At Caesarea Philippi?  (Mt 16:13)      (Mt 17:14-21)(Mk 9:17-29)(Lk 9:38-47)

Jerusalem                 (Lk 22:31-32 – implied)

In that 4000 years, there is no mention of a lake of fire, hell, or going to heaven when you die.

In that 4000 years, God says people are responsible for their own sins and if one takes the

proper steps then his/her sins are forgiven and never remember again, your sin counter

is reset to zero. In that 4000 years, blood is NOT the only way to atone for sins, there are

many NON-BLOOD ways to atone for sins.

"God does NOT condemn everyone to the fires of eternal damnation. You can search the Jewish Scriptures from cover to cover; you will not find one verse that supports such a teaching."

Errors, Contradictions and Falsehoods in the New Testament …

If I gave you a book and said it was from G-d, if it had just one mistake in it you would hand it back to me and you wouldn’t waste a single minute more of your time on it. If I gave you a wonderful book about the twin towers and the first page talks about the twin towers being destroyed in Chicago you would never believe anything else written in the book even if it was true because of the such grave error you first read.

Now: Contradictions in the New Testament (does G-d not know what he said or wanted to say?)

The announcement of the special birth came before conception. Lk.1:26-31.
The announcement of the special birth came after conception. Mt.1:18-21.

Jesu’ parents were told of their son’s future greatness. Mt.1:18-21; Lk.1:28-35.
Jesu’ parents knew nothing of their son’s potential. Lk.2:48-50.
The angel told Joseph. Mt.1:20.
The angel told Mary. Lk.1:28.

There were 28 generations from David to Jesu. Mt.1:17.
There were 43 generations from David to Jesu. Lk.3:23-31.
If this were both parents then they would have lived about 100-200 years apart from
each other as well!

Jacob was Joseph’s father. Mt.1:16.
Heli was Joseph’s father. Lk.3:23.
Christians state because Heli was his Father-in-law, this has nothing to do with
bloodline and would not be listed in a bloodline tie to Kind David!

He was to be called Emmanuel. Mt.1:23.
He was called Jesu. Mt.1:25.

Joseph, Mary, and Jesu flee to Egypt while Herod slaughters all males under
2 years old. Mt.2:13-16. (Note: Jesu’ cousin, John, was also under 2 and
survived without having to flee.)
Joseph, Mary, and Jesu did not flee to Egypt, but remained for temple rituals.
No slaughter of infants is mentioned! Lk.2:21-39.

Jesu was tempted during the 40 days in the wilderness. Mk.1:13.
Jesu was tempted after the 40 days in the wilderness. Mt.4:2,3.

Every Jew is commanded to develop the recognition of Divine truth attained by Abraham: a recognition so absolute that it can, by the force of reason alone, dispel a universally entrenched doctrine and convince thousands to transform their lives.

The essence of Judaism is the belief in the One G-d. by Chabad.org The essence of Judaism is the belief in the One G-d. Indeed, all monotheistic faiths trace their origin to Abraham, the discoverer (or re-discoverer) of this truth. The Jewish belief in G-d is expressed in the first two of the Ten Commandments. The first affirms the truth of His being. The second is the negative complement to the first–the disavowal of idolatry. Idolatry is not necessarily a lack of belief in G-d; indeed, the Second Commandment begins, “You shall have no other godsbefore Me…” Rather, idolatry also includes any denial of G-d’s oneness — his absolute singularity, unity and exclusiveness of being. To ascribe any divisions or compartmentalizations to the divine being, or to believe that G-d has any partners or intermediaries to His creation and sustenance of the universe, is to transgress the prohibition of idolatry. The particulars of the laws of idolatry are spelled out by Maimonides in hisMishneh Torah, in a twelve-chapter section entitled Laws Concerning Idolatry and its Customs. Here Maimonides defines idolatry and examines the various forms of idol-worship and its accompanying practices, the penalties they carry, the status of an idolator, etc. In the first chapter of Laws Concerning Idolatry, Maimonides outlines the history of man’s recognition of the truth of the One G-d. Originally, man knew his Maker; but “in the generation of Enosh (Adam’s grandson), humanity erred grievously, and the wisdom of that generations wise men was confused; Enosh himself was among those who erred. Their error lay in that they believed that it would be pleasing to G-d if they were to venerate the forces of nature which serve Him, as a king desires that his ministers and servants be venerated. Soon they were erecting temples and altars to the sun and the stars, offering sacrifices and hymns of praise to them, believing all this to be the will of G-d.” In later generations, Maimonides continues, “there arose false prophets… and other charlatans who claimed to have received communications from the various heavenly bodies as to how they are to be served and which images are to represent them. As the years went by, the venerable and awesome name of G-d was forgotten from the lips and minds of humanity; no longer were they aware of Him at all. The common folk knew only the wood or stone image in its stone temple which they had been trained from childhood to bow down to and serve and swear by; the wiser ones among them believed in the stars and constellations that these images represented; but none recognized or even knew of the Creator except for rare individuals such as Enoch, Methuselah, Noah, Shem and Eber. And so the world turned until the pillar of the universe, our father Abraham, was born. “No sooner was [Abraham] weaned — and he was but a small child — that his mind began to seek and wonder: How do the heavenly bodies orbit without a moving force? Who moves them? They cannot move themselves! Immersed amongst the foolish idol-worshippers of Ur Casdim, he had no one to teach him anything; his father, mother and countrymen, and he amongst them, all worshipped idols. But his heart sought, and came to know that there is one G-d… who created all and that in all existence there is none other than Him. He came to know that the entire world erred… “At the age of forty, Abraham recognized his Creator… He began to debate with the people of Ur Casdim… He smashed the idols, and began to teach the people that it is only fitting to serve the one G-d… He continued to call in a great voice to the world, teaching them that there is one G-d for the entire universe, and that He alone is it fitting to serve. He carried his call from city to city and from kingdom to kingdom… Many gathered to ask about his words, and he would explain to each according to his understanding until he had shown him the path of truth. Thousands and then tens of thousands joined him…and he implanted this great principle in their heart and wrote many books on it. After Abraham’s passing, Isaac, and then Jacob, continued his work, until Jacob’s descendents, and those who joined them, formed a nation that knew G-d. “However, when the people of Israel dwelled in Egypt for many years, they regressed to learn from the behavior of the Egyptians and to worship idols with them… just a little longer, and the great principle implanted by Abraham would have been uprooted, and the descendents of Jacob would have reverted to the error of humanity and their contorted ways. But out of G-d’s love to us, and His keeping of the oath He made to Abraham… G-d chose Israel as His, crowned them with mitzvot, and instructed them the way in which to serve Him, and the laws concerning idolatry and those who err with it.” History as Law Thus Maimonides concludes the first chapter of Laws Concerning Idolatry. In the next eleven chapters he proceeds to spell out the legal particulars of “idolatry and those who err with it.” The Mishneh Torah is a purely Halachic, or legal, work. On the rare occasions on which Maimonides digresses with an historical fact or a philosophical insight, it is always revealed, upon closer examination, to be a legally instructive point. The same is true of the opening chapter of Laws Concerning Idolatry: every detail of this lengthy history is a Halachah, a crucial component of the Torah’s prohibition of idolatry. In this essay, we will dwell on two of the important points that Maimonides is making in this chapter. Maimonides’ first point is that idolatry is not only a religious sin but also a rational error. Enosh’s generation “erred grievously and the wisdom of that generation’s wise men was confused”; humanity was deceived by false prophets and charlatans. Abraham arrived at the truth of G-d’s oneness not by Divine revelation or supernatural powers, but in a process by which “his mind began to seek and wander… until he comprehended the truth and understood the righteous path by his sound wisdom.” He gained adherents to his faith not by working wonders or prophesying in the name of G-d, but by explaining to each according to his understanding, until he had shown him the path of truth. Maimonides does not mention G-d’s many revelations to Abraham (see Genesis 12:1, 12:7 15:1-21, et al); he also makes no mention of the many prophecies and miracles that accompanied the development of the nation that knew G-d in its formative years. For even if none of this had come to pass, man could still have come to recognize the oneness of G-d, and would have been expected to do so. Idolatry is irrational; man, using nothing more than his capacity to reason, can discern its fallacy and discover the truth. [This is also emphasized by Maimonides' statement that "At the age of forty, Abraham recognized his Creator." There exist several accounts as to the year of Abraham's discovery. The Talmud states that Abraham recognized his Creator at age three; other sources cite his age at the time as 4; other as 50. Maimonides' source seems to be a variant version of theMidrash that states that he was 48t. As many commentaries suggest, there is no contradiction between these accounts -- each represents another level of recognition achieved by Abraham; indeed, Maimonides himself informs us that his quest began "soon after he was weaned, and he was but a small child." Why, then, does Maimonides choose to speak particularly of the recognition Abraham attained at age forty? Indeed, of what Halachic significance is Abraham's age at all? But Maimonides wishes to again underscore that Abraham's refutation of idolatry was a rational one. Forty is described by our sages as "the age of understanding" -- the point at which a person's cognitive powers attain full maturity. Thus, the level of discovery Abraham achieved at age forty represents his ultimateunderstanding of the divine truth.] On the other hand, near the end of the historical account, Maimonides makes the very opposite point: without Divine intervention, the faith founded by Abraham would not have survived. Human reason is not enough. It can expose fallacies, discover truth, transform a life, convince thousands, found a nation. But it is only as strong as the human self of which it springs. It can be distorted and suppressed by the tribulations of life: break the person, and you have invalidated his or her ideas. The exile and hardship experienced by the Israelites in Egypt almost destroyed the nation that knew G-d. If G-d had not revealed Himself to us at Sinai, the great principle implanted by Abraham would have been uprooted. Mind and More In the first chapter of Laws Concerning Idolatry, Maimonides is instructing us how the mitzvah ”You shall have no other gods before Me” is to be observed. It is not enough to say: “G-d revealed Himself to us at Sinai and told us that there are no other deities or forces that are partner to His being and His rulership of the universe. So I know that it is so. If He said so, that’s enough for me: the logic of this truth is irrelevant.” No, says Maimonides. The Second Commandment obligates the Jew that his mind, not only his convictions, should negate the possibility of other gods. He must not only accept that this is so, but also comprehend that, rationally, it cannot be otherwise. Every Jew is commanded to develop the recognition of Divine truth attained by Abraham: a recognition so absolute that it can, by the force of reason alone, dispel a universally entrenched doctrine and convince thousands to transform their lives. On the other hand, a person might take this to the other extreme, and say: “The oneness of G-d is not a matter of faith, it’s a fact. The nature of reality attests to it–I can prove it to anyone. It is the revelation at Sinai that is irrelevant. Monotheism is a rational truth, supported by irrefutable arguments.” That may be so, Maimonides is saying, but the Jew’s denial of alien gods is more than an irrefutable philosophy. It is a faith implanted in the core of our souls, which endures also when logic ceases to function and reason is rendered impotent. To truly believe one must comprehend, but comprehension alone is but the mortal shadow of immortal faith. The philosophy-faith of Abraham barely survived Egypt; the supra-rational faith we attained at Sinai, where G-d chose Israel as His, crowned them with mitzvot, and instructed them the way in which to serve Him, has survived a hundred Egypts and every madness of history. http://www.chabad.org/1660316 Young Abraham Young Abraham Smashing Idols The famous story from the Midrash about how Abraham destroyed the idols in his father's shop.
