Studying the bible

Post #1

Post by doggy777777 »

Are there any non bias study books on the bible?
(or books about Christianity in general?)

All the books I've seen are either "God is good" or "God is bad"..
I haven't found anything that leaves the final decision up to the reader.

There is no Hebrew letter called "Shema." That is the name of an ancient prayer or blessing, actually a set of three quotations from the Torah.

We don't debate via YouTube here. Give a synopsis of the video, including the source, or don't post it.

So "Mr. Israel" doesn't know a Shema from a Sheva?

Yeah. It's called a mezuzah. There's one on my door. What's your point? Do you have one?

There is a four-branched Shin on tefillin. Do you know what tefillin are? Do you know the meaning of the four-branched Shin?

It's pronounced shin, by the way, like the front of your lower leg, not sheen. Someone's pullling your leg. Sheeny is an old pejorative term for Jew, like "Kike."

It's very clear that you know virtually nothing about Judaism. Go read a book or two on the subject before you presume to tell us about our religion.
