Re-Accept the Torah
 | The Torah was given more than 3300 years ago. Every year on the holiday of Shavuot we renew our acceptance of G‑d's gift and G‑d "re-gives" the Torah. Learn how to celebrate this special holiday...

I think its really great. I am Jewish and everybody has a nishama to celebrate shvout.

I like your articles and i use them to teach children. Really wonderful, thank you.

Thank you for your wonderful site. I was raised a secular Jew and your site is forming an education in Jewishness that has long been lacking. Although I am just beginning and still very ignorant I am grateful for the opportunity afforded by your site to study daily.
|
Thank you for a helpful and concise site, full of information. The format is simple and explicit and easy to "digest!" There is much to learn and this site is a wonderful start.
|
I wanted to take this time to just thank-you your articles have helped me with my study back to Jewish roots. You made them simple enough for everyone to understand and yet want more. Thanks for all your help

I am not Jewish but I am doing a project on Jewish festivals in school and I found rather interesting info on this site.
|
I am a recent convert and I used the site throughout my conversion. It was and still is a very primary source of information. I have encouraged several reform Jews to visit your site. I am a proud and very grateful subscriber. In addition, my children attend a Chabad Gan in Shanghai (under Rav Greenberg) and the morahs are always using the childrens' teaching tools from the site. They are WONDERFUL!!

Your site provides me with an immediate learning tool for Torah Study as well as insightful information concerning how the Goyim are to participate in G-d's appointed times. The weekly Torah readings with Rashi's commentary is very helpful.
|
As a christian, my family and I use your site in order to observe the Holy Days. It is a wonderful tool!

I work at an Old Age Home in South Africa and we have a number of Jewish ladies staying with us. I always check on the Jewish holidays and put up notices at the times wishing them a Happy..whatever the Holiday is. They so appreciate this!!

It was my understanding (as a Catholic) that the Torah was written by Moses as both a historical account and as a set of laws. We believe that what was given to the Jewish people on Sinai was the Ten Commandments of the LORD. Am I misunderstanding what the Torah is?
|
the Torah is more than just the 10 commandments. Moses was on the mtn those 40 days and nights learning the Oral Torah as well as the written. For example: The Jewish men are commanded to wrap teffillin. The written Torah does not tell us how to wrap them. G-d taught Moses how. Hopes this helps.

Thank you for your teachings

As a practising Christain(Roman Catholic) I find these type of web sites very informative and would seriously advise many non Jewish people to gain valuable knowledge by reading and learning from this.
If it were not for the Jewish faith we would have none at all,although there are huge differerences,there is much to unite us than divide us.
I am for ever learning about the Jewish faith and theefore have a better understanding of my fellow brothers customs and beliefs.

We (my husband and I) are practising Christians (Methodists). I enjoy this site and gain a lot of information from it, as Lyndon in Wales says.
My bro-in-law calls himself a 'committed secular Jew'. I don't understand this. We went to a bar mitzvah last week and bro-in-law joined in the prayers. He has told me that he doesn't believe in God. So who was he praying to????
|
why is The O not in the name GOD in the info provided. Just Curious!
|
I am a secular Jew trying to find my way - and becoming more observant. In the process found this site tonight as I am searching for the meaning of Shavuot. Your open minded comments touched me and have stirred and inspired me to continue to study. G-d less you.
|
As a roman Catholic I feel it is very important that we understand our relationship to the Jewish faith. II feel it strengthen our faith and allows us to have a better understanding of our family in fath established by Abraham.

Good morning from a very suuny and hot Wales,it makes a change for us here,but always remember any day that God has given us will be a good day.
Roger,many thanks for your kind remarks,the path to God is never easy some take the short cut route and others will take scenic route and many may take a longer route,but will arrive there in the end,and as long as we all arrive there in the end that will be the most important thing for us all be it the Christian or Jewish road!!
Roger I pray that you will keep to the right path today and always,take care and may our God bless us all.
regards to all
