There are truths and there are lies
A Happier and Healthier Life
Judaism exist to help human beings to cope with life, to make sense of the world in which we live.
“The mission of the Jewish people has never been to make the world more Jewish, but to make it more human.”
it is not the exposition of ideas which is meaningful but the performance of deeds
Marriage is a sublime promise made between two human beings in love.
The promise to be sensitive to the other’s needs as one would be to one’s own;
the opening of trust that allows for shared intimacy;
and the understanding that marriage initiates life together as a family in the community opens a new world ruled by a principle which in Judaism is called “hesed.”
The untranslatable word “hesed” encapsulates all those interpersonal values Judaism considers the highest in life: Love, respect, care, trust, loyalty, and responsibility.
The Hebrew scriptures
The Hebrew Scriptures (The TaNaKh-Israel’s Foundational Literature) define who is “Am Israel,” the people of Israel.
It is its foundational literature because, besides giving it its identity, it is the measure against which every idea or concept that considers itself Jewish is measured.
The TaNaKh frames the way the people of Israel look at the world, the values it holds dear, and its ideals and vision.
Jewish Tenets
Judaism is what results when the thousands of years of accumulated experiences of the Jewish people are put into practice.
Successful responses to the perennial challenges to human existence are preserved through thinking patterns, emotional responses, and behavioral practices that may well explain much of Judaism’s longevity.
Behind ideologies and forms of worship, Judaism is clearly defined by a young Biblical princess saying: “Such a thing is not done in Israel” (2 Sam. 13: 12). Judaism is about what Jews do and don’t do.
Animals play or gamble; human beings celebrate
The Festivals are the sacred days that express the unique teachings of Judaism fostering them and transmitting them to the generations to come. Each festival has its distinct philosophy, its own historical referent, and its special observances.”
