Studying Talmud or Studying Israelites
In December 2003, "JUDAISM: A Very Short Introduction" by Norman Solomon (http://spruce.flint.umich.edu/~simoncu/165/judaism.htm) was translated by Mr. Tetsuo Yamaga and published in Japan.
I do recommend this book especially to Japanese in whose country only scores of converts to Judaism live among its population of 120 million.
It is always thrilling to see how a non-nonsense Israelite thinks about Jesus Christ.
* * *
I do especially recommend you to check the chapter five:
"Chapter 5: The spiritual life - prayer, meditation, Torah [68]
Story from the Talmud of Elijah and Rabbi Baroka discussing who in the market place was 'Destined for the World to Come'"
The story really reflects how Judaism was influenced by Jesus Christ. Its core of the lesson really matches a teaching of Jesus Christ.
No matter how Israelites deny influence on their minds and hearts of teaching of Jesus Christ, Israelites after the emergence of Jesus Christ and the first century completely changed from their ancestors in and before the critical era.
In anything newly developed or performed by Israelites since the first century in terms of culture and religion including Jerusalem Talmud and Babylonian Talmud, there must be such influence, as Norman Solomon wrote that Judaism in a sense followed Christianity as the two critical Talmuds were compiled and completed around or by the sixth century.
(Influence of Jesus Christ on Jewish-Roman Wars is also a critical issue, though conventionally completely denied. Emergence of Jesus Christ, Jewish-Roman Wars, and establishment of two Talmuds are in one chain reaction the God intended.)
From this point of view, Judaism especially after the 6th century may be regarded as a kind of Christianity in which everything about Jesus Christ is however completely screened out. As the color of majority of Israelites changed from dark olive to white, their religion changed from classic Judaism to Christ's-teaching-underlined Judaism especially when Khazar Kingdom converted itself to Judaism in the 8th century.
(And, Islam was established in the 7th century following God's plan.)
One example is the above story in Chapter 5 where humble and poor Israelites exercised their love to neighbors exactly as an Israelite but, as a matter of fact, following teachings of Jesus Christ.
Israelites depicted in the Gospels would not have acted in such a manner as is depicted in the story in Chapter 5, namely, with thoughtfulness, modesty, and self-sacrifice based on love to neighbors.
Jesus Christ may be also regarded as having been the Messiah to Israelites for these 2000 years. He must be a super hero for Israelites, too, though so secretly or unconsciously, since foreigners had made Him their hero earlier, which caused a great psychological obstacle to Israelites after the first century.
(Israelites must be secretly proud that one of their blood brothers conquered the Roman Empire and Europe, and has been revered as God by Europeans and Americans, though Nazis' atrocity on them should be analyzed at a higher level than they have ever done.)
* * *
Another interesting issue is the beginning of the history of Israelites, that is, 3760 B.C. Israelites claim that the human history started some 5760 years ago; thus year 2007 is anno mundi (AM: since the Creation) 5767 for Israelites.
4000 B.C. - Horses were domesticated in the prairies in the north of the Black Sea.
4000 B.C. - City Ur was built in Mesopotamia.
3761 B.C. - The epoch of Hebrew calendar: October 7, 3761 B.C.
3600 B.C. - Sumerian Civilization established with cities fully enjoying self- independence.
It is apparent that ancient Israelites had a kind of traditions of, obligation to, respect for, passion for, or attachment to the memory of the Sumerian Civilization.
They were not wandering nomads who only knew cattle breeding, without any glory or memory of their glorious ancestors.
Israelites must be more glorious than they today think themselves to be or they have been made to think themselves to be.
If Vatican is involved in this conspiracy, its sin is deeper than any sea; otherwise they should have appointed an Israelite to Co-Pope or at least Honorable Co-Hope from the beginning.
* * *
In short, Israelites have been, regardless of their self-recognition, a kind of, or otherwise secret or unconscious Christians, no matter if everything about Jesus Christ is completely screened out in their religion, as proven by the story in Chapter 5 of "JUDAISM: A Very Short Introduction."
They are also honorable descendants of Sumerians, the first civilized race, no matter how scarce their heritage is, as proven by their setting of 3760 B.C. as their epoch.
There is also a theory that Islam has been a kind of Judaism though only for the so-called descendants of Ishmael.
Indeed, Judaism, Christianity, and Islam are secretly one in trinity, of which the deepest root is in Mesopotamia and as far as to the God Almighty, our God.
(That is why I never mind, and will never ask anybody to reveal, the religion he or she believes in.
And now, you may sense what religion I believe in. It may be partly the same one as Sumerians did, which may be the one prevailing in the Garden of Eden which must still have room for you.
Anyway, the God allows mankind to study Talmud, Israelites, or EEE-Report, if you like.)
