This is the very thing that brought me to the Jewish faith. But finding my mother in my DNA test 4 years. Confirming I WAS already a Jew😘

[@1NimA0AmiR1]

Moed or appointment/meeting seems similar to (موعد،موعود) in Arabic It’s pronounce and means the same !

[@halpyman]

If everybody walked around with a Bible under their arm saying they knew right way to keep the festivals, or count days there is chaos, and a nation could not progress in a uniform manner. This is why God in Deut 17 gave authority Judges to set "rabbinic law" so that people will be on the same page. So regardless if you are a Jew and think Jews have it wrong, you still keep the laws as the rabbis setup.

When was Leviticus written? I think Gmirkin argues it was written in the 3rd century BCE.

I didn't put this question in chat as i do not want to upset, but weren't there things adopted by the Israelites during Babylonian captivity like the hexagram, talmud, kabbalah and YHWH? and incorporated into Judaism?

[@kloklo4199]

Yes.

My dating on the Talmud is incorrect... kzbin.info/www/bejne/gKa6oaN8rrSMiJYsi=bU5SbpBIzDA29XJZ

[@ruthgreen2014]

I'm sorry for I miss informed concerning the Talmud. The following is David Solomon going into much detail concerning both Talmuds kzbin.info/www/bejne/aaOtZpqXa69rh9ksi=yrmBJWVBoGicks_N

There may be things, and scholars assume things to have been adopted and intermingled into Judaism during the time of Babylonian captivity and afterwards. You could watch a few videos, or even read a few books by scholars and assume they are authoritative when in reality as far as truth is concerned they may not be authoritative as sometimes there is heavy bias, and other times mostly things just go unnoticed. I appreciate Ross for the fact that he puts in a sincere dedicated approach to his studies and many other scholars do as well. With that said, the star, may have preceded. The name Yahweh definitely preceded. If you were to be talking about the use of initials for the name and not pronouncing the vowels, that's a different thing. The Talmud arose in the 3rd-6th century as a compilation of discussion about the Mishnah from the 2nd century. The Mishnah was a recording of discussion of interpretation of passages and how to handle legal cases by ruling and examples of such put forth. Think of modern cases, such as Roe V. Wade. It set a precedent or standard of rulings on disputed ambiguities in the Torah and was known as the oral Torah. The concept of this being an oral tradition predates the 2nd century and predates Jesus. Examples in the book are even used in the New Testament. The idea behind the oral Torah of rulings and cases that haven't been explicit in the Torah goes back to the Torah itself. Now if a Jew tells you that the book itself, or the rulings themselves go back to Mount Sinai, that part is rubbish and I'm not sure when that legend developed. Kaballah to speak of as a "thing" is way too broad. The roots of Kabbalah are as old as the Torah. That is not to say it is correct, but it again is a means of interpretation and a thought process on divine things. The concept of things being hidden or concealedfrom knowledge to certain people also exists way before the 2nd temple period if you're looking at Kabbalah from a practical aspect. There are elements in modern kabbalah that are foreign to scripture but it is an extremely broad topic and extremely generalized catch all word for many different religious subjects from an introduction standpoint.
