    I just boosted some posts from my old Urusai account kind of chronicling this, but short version: I'm half Ashkenazi Jew, I grew up with some Jewish traditions alongside Christian traditions since my Mom is a Christian. After I was around 10, the Jewish traditions were basically removed at home. My Mom was performative and just...chose to be performative as an adoptive Mom at that point. Feel free to see the previous thread for more info.

    As an adult now with four kids, I decided last year to start re-embracing my Jewish ethnicity. We did some Hanukkah celebrations and had a Seder at home for Passover. I'm trying.

    My family never did much for Rosh Hashanah. We'd call my Grandparents and wish them a happy New Year. That was...about it.

    This year, I'm likely not going to do much about it with my family since it's less than a week away and I have absolutely no idea what to do with my kids to introduce them to it. Since I have no basis for how to celebrate it.

    But, anyway...I want to do something about it next year.

    It's all a learning curve.

    Anyway. Putting it out there.

    We can’t control what happens to us – only how we react to it. And when we help others we are reminded that we are more than our suffering

  6. Today I'm going to talk about the Hebrew calendars. Yes, that's calendars, plural. Jews aren't the only Hebrews; Samaritans are also still around and they have their own traditions, including their own calendar.

  7. Today is season "boundary" day. It marks the end & beginning of seasons. This keeps everyone synchronous with nature & the Feasts of YHWH.

    And what happens when Christians use the term we hate, “#Judeochristian,” as if to expressly say “Jews are ok, the rest of you are not.”

    Or when referring to and listing “#Abrahamic religions” but leaving out the Bahá’i Faith (#bahai), #Rastafari, #Druze, and #Samaritanism. Like “#Islam and #Judaism are cool too, but nobody else.”

  10. This week's #Torah #Kasha #Parsha #LechLecha #Judaism

    In #yeshiva, I learned that promises of good or rewards in #Tanakh are guaranteed, but promises of punishments are not neccesary, they 're like warnings. So for example when #Hashem promises success through the #Navi, it's guaranteed, but if He promises #exile, it's possible to avoid it.

    If so, then why did so many #Rishonim try to calculate the #400years of slavery? Why didn't they just say "The warning no longer applied after ~200 years"
