Regarding rabbis turning converts away three times: my Reconstructionist rabbi explained to me that's not a very common practice anymore (although some branches of Judaism might still practice it). However, he did explain to me upon our first meeting that he would not "chase me down" or take the lead on my conversion meetings. He explained it was nothing personal and to not take it to mean he doesn't want me to convert, but that he wants me to make the effort to pursue Judaism, as it's a deeply personal decision and he doesn't want to be responsible for pressuring me in anyway. He said he would be more than happy to support my conversion, but that I had to be the one to make the initiative for myself. I've also said it before, but thank you, Marion for your videos! They were one of the many things to help me confirm that Judaism is the right choice for me and got me started on my own Jewish journey.

My rabbi just made himself REALLY hard to get ahold of until he was sure I was sincere. And honestly, I'm really thankful for that and other variations, I think it's basically informed consent in matters of spirituality, and that just makes so much sense.

After watching this, I'm in tears! Throughout my life, I've interacted with Jewish people, and made a lot of Jewish friends when I lived in the Bay Area. There's this curiosity within now that doesn't feel pressured. It just feels right. I attended the ADL conference in New York for professional development at work. I'm reading books by Jewish authors. I have "Living a Jewish Life" by Anita Diamant right in front of me, that I haven't finished reading. Two weeks ago, one of my neighbors donated the Israeli cookbook Zahav that was in the lobby of my apartment. One early morning on my way out, I noticed it--and picked it up. I belong to a Jewish affinity group at my job--these are all the signs. I just know that this will be an interesting journey ahead and looking forward to what awaits! Thank you Marion and Rabbi Tarlan Rabizadeh for this helpful video!!

I think it’s important for the viewers to note that not all conversions are recognized as “kosher.” For example there have been many people who converted through the Reform or Conservative movements and then found out that their conversions were not recognized by Orthodox Jews. Although an Orthodox conversion is very thorough and can take years of intense study and commitment, it is the only conversion that is recognized by all Jews.
@MargaritaSage
@MargaritaSage Жыл бұрын
I think it's equally important to state, the rabbinate within the State of Israel, do not recognize all or even most Orthodox conversions performed by Orthodox rabbis not on their list of approved rabbis. There are only about 30 approved rabbis within the US. This is vital to remember for those seeking to make Aliyah as converts. Also if the Orthodox rabbi who performed the conversion is ever scandalized, the conversions he performed could be ruled invalid by the rabbinate. Convert in the most meaningful manner that fits you. Own your Judaism, STUDY& LEARN, know there are those who possibly may view you as a non Jew, even if you did convert Orthodox.

As an Atheist I find the Jewish faith so interesting and just as of this past November with the permission of the Rabbi I attended synagogue for the first time in my life, I recently decided to no longer attend due to what I could only best describe as imposter syndrome. I do still however enjoy watching sessions when possible online and watch videos of this nature on both the experience and educating myself on Judaism. Otherwise I wish you all the best and love from Cape Town, South Africa

Finding a welcoming congregation is key to a great conversation experience, imo. If there's an Intro to Judaism course in your area, chances are it's taught by multiple rabbis. If you jive well with one (or more!) you can check out their congregation for a shabbat service and see how you feel about it. Alternatively, many congregations now offer live-streamed services, if you're not ready for people quite yet. It's like shul shopping without pressure! Mazel tov and best of luck on your journey!

That’s because an orthodox conversion requires adhering to Torah law and Shabbat and kosher are very important “mitzvot” commandments that are stated in the written Torah. The written Torah and the oral Torah (the Mishnah, Talmud and commentaries) were given to the Jewish people by G-d, our Creator, through Moses on Mount Sinai.

When Rabbi Tarlan Rabizadeh answered that she went through the Reform process I was confused. I thought she was saying that she went through the reform conversion process. As a Persian, did she convert from Islam to Judaism? But perhaps she was born Jewish and did not convert. Maybe she only means that she became a Reform rabbi, not a reform convert.

A reform convert may seek to convert Orthodox for a variety of reasons including being considered Jewish in very Orthodox communities or due to a personal desire to go deeper into Judaism and Jewish learning. An Orthodox Jew does not need to convert to reform if they decide to join a Reform synagogue since they are simply taking a more liberal approach to Judaism. It's all the same religion just different levels of observance. Someone may choose to convert Orthodox for the learning and then live a more reform life.

You could contact a local congregation to inquire about a class. However, the AJU program class is online, and you could connect with a local Rabbi to complete your conversion. HTH. ✡♥

Are there Torah classes for women who are not Jewish? I have released worldly celebrations (Christmas, Halloween, Easter, etc), and no longer eat unclean meats. I have a hunger for learning Torah, but I live in the mountains of Northeastern Utah and am many hours away from cities like Salt Lake City or Ogden where there are synagogues.

I have heard of classes that accept friends and family of Jews who are interested in learning more about Judaism but not converting. I recommended going online to find one online or possibly in your area.

There are different denominations within Judaism. A traditional conversion would require a circumcision. During the times of the 2nd Temple, many gentiles wanted to become Jewish but stopped because of not wanting to get circumcised. Christianity made it so much easier when they did away with circumcision, dietary laws and Shabbat. Of course, today there is Reform Judaism.

My grandmother was adopted during WWII. My aunts and uncles took a DNA test due to the fact that my grandmother had early onset Alzhiemers age 50. The results were eastern European Jewish. I as the rest of my family were raised Catholic. I'm In my middle 50s and am curious about my Jewish heritage. I would like some clarity on this like am I and my family technically Jewish. Thank you for any information. Additionally my mother now has Alzhiemers.

But the problem is, for your own good, watch out, if you convert improperly you will bring issues to your children later. Should they choose to be chozer btshuva it may be hurtful to them to find out they are not Jewish (it were dealing with the mothers conversion of course)....or even not considering that issue....if they travel/move to various countries that do not recognize invalid conversions they will not be able to marry under their current circumstance. Doesnt pay to do that to your children. Do something SO monumental RIGHT, or better not do it at all.

You bring up important points. However, there is so much disagreement among the Orthodox community that even if one has an Orthodox conversion that is accepted today, no guarantee exists that it will be accepted in twenty years. The policies of the Israeli government change, too.

being that conversion is based on arpah, Ruth the moabite & how there mother in law naomi told them 3 times to return to their people after there husbands died, which arpah did but ruth didnt budge,part of the reason for the conversion process taking at least a year is to learn the process and 613 commandments, yes its a verry high bar to meet and if somone is not prepared to accept all of the commandments i dont see how they can become jewish
