Jewish Messiah: Encyclopedia II - Mormonism and Judaism - Mormons and Jews

LDS assert peaceful coexistence with the Jewish people, whom they recognize as Israelites who simply never lost the knowledge that they are Israelites. The Church is consequently very philo-Semitic by doctrine, and the Jewish people are generally held in high esteem; they are looked upon as a covenant people of God. Mormonism and Judaism - Jews in Utah. The first Jewish cemetery in Salt Lake City, Utah, was on land donated by the LDS church, and the firs ...

Jewish Messiah: Encyclopedia II - Mormonism and Judaism - Comparison between Mormonism and Judaism

Mormonism and Judaism - Nature of God. Although monotheism is a fundamental tenet of Judaism, the Jewish religion arose and was codified during a time when polytheism and idolatry was the norm. In polytheistic religions, gods are typically ascribed human or human/animal bodies (including gender and even race), family relationships, and human failings (including intra-familial struggles, jealousy, revenge, and a whole host of negative human traits). It was the break from this mindset that marked Abraham's founding of the Jewish religion. Judaism does not a ...

Jewish Messiah: Encyclopedia II - Judaism and Christianity - Capital punishment

Although the Jewish bible has many references to capital punishment, in fact very early on, the Jewish sages and rabbis used their authority, and the demands for justice emphasized in the bible, to make it all but impossible for a Jewish court to impose a death sentence. Even when such a sentence might have been imposed, the "cities of refuge" and other sanctuaries, were at hand for those unintentionally guilty of capital offences. In this manner, the Talmud seriously limits the use of the death penalty to only be applicable to those ...

Jewish Messiah: Encyclopedia II - Judaism and Christianity - The nature of religion: national versus universal

Judaism does not characterize itself as a religion so much as a way of life (although one can speak of the Jewish religion and religious Jews). The subject of the Tanakh (Hebrew Bible) is the history of the Children of Israel (also called Hebrews), especially in terms of their relationship with God. Thus, Judaism has also been characterized as a culture or as a civilization. Rabbi Mordecai Kaplan defines Judaism as an evolving religious civilization. One crucial sign of this is that one need not believe, or even do, anything to be Jewish; th ...

Jewish Messiah: Encyclopedia II - Mormonism and Judaism - Jewish symbolism in Mormonism

The LDS Church includes among its traditional symbols the Star of David, which has been in use among Jews since at least the 13th century. For the LDS Church, it represents among other things the divine Israelite covenant, Israelite regathering, and affinity with the Jews, and is prominently depicted in a stained glass window in the landmark Salt Lake Assembly Hall. Mormonism and Judaism - Calendar. According to Mormon belief, several major events in early Mormon history fall on Jewish holidays, either by ...

Jewish Messiah: Encyclopedia II - Yechi - Early history

Yechi began as the phrase "Yechi Adoneinu Moreinu Verabbeinu," ("May our master, teacher and Rebbe live!") to which the response was a shout of "Yechi" ("May he live!"). Generally, it was recited in the presence of Rabbi Schneerson after the recitation of twelve special verses known as "the Twelve Pesukim." A child honored with reciting the last verse of the Twelve Pesukim would call out the phrase, to which everyone would respond. This was repeated three times. The response would be accented on the second ...

Jewish Messiah: Encyclopedia II - Mormonism and Judaism - Mormon claims of House of Israel descent

Mormons consider themselves to be the descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob (who was also known as "Israel") or adopted into the House of Israel. Mormons use both "House of Israel" and "House of Joseph" to refer to themselves in the present day. Mormon doctrine states that the Book of Mormon tells of two groups of ancient peoples that migrated to the Americas (exactly where is unknown) that were d ...

Mormons, as a whole, are largely pro-Israel. Mormons, as well as many Jews, are also in favor of coexistence in the Holy Land. The LDS people view Arabs to be children of Abraham. Mormonism and Judaism - Mormons in Israel. The LDS church has two congregations in Israel. These are the Galilee Branch in Tiberias and the Jerusalem Branch in Jerusalem [3].

Jewish Messiah: Encyclopedia II - Messianic Age - Terminology: messianic and eschatology

In the context of "Messianic Age", the earliest meaning of the the word "messianic" is derived from notion of Yemot HaMashiach meaning "The Days of the Messiah", that is, the Jewish Messiah, meaning "related to the Messiah" (See also Messiah). Messiah comes from a Hebrew word meaning "The Anointed One", i.e., a person who is "specially appointed and empowered". Eschatology is an area of religious scholarship that deals w ...

Jewish Messiah: Encyclopedia II - Judaism and Christianity - Evangelism

Judaism is not an evangelistic religion. Orthodox Judaism in fact deliberately makes it very difficult to convert and become a Jew, and requires a significant and full-time effort in living, study, righteousness, and conduct over several years. The final decision is by no means a foregone conclusion. A person cannot become Jewish by marrying a Jew, or by joining a synagogue, nor by any degree of involvement in the community or religion, but only by explicitly undertaking (under supervision) a formal and intense work over years aimed towards that goal. Some less strict versions of Judaism have made this p ...

Jewish Messiah: Encyclopedia II - Judaism and Christianity - Mutual views

In addition to each having varied views on the other as a religion, there has also been a long and often painful history of conflict, persecution and at times, reconciliation, between the two religions, which have influenced their mutual views of their relationship over time. Persecution, genocide and forcible conversion of Jews (ie hate crime) were common for many centuries, with occasional gestures to reconciliation from time to time. Pogroms were common throughout Christian Europe, including organized violence, restrictive land own ...

Jewish Messiah: Encyclopedia II - Judaism and Christianity - War violence and pacifism

Jews and Christians accept as valid and binding many of the same moral principles taught in the Torah. There is a great deal of overlap between the ethical systems of these two faiths. Nonetheless, there are some highly significant doctrinal differences. Judaism has a great many teachings about peace and compromise, and its teachings make physical violence the last possible option. Nonetheless, the Talmud teaches that "If someone comes with the intention to murder you, then one is obligated to kill in self-defense [rather than be kill ...

Jewish Messiah: Encyclopedia II - Judaism and Christianity - Judgement

Both Christianity and Judaism believe in some form of judgement. The Christian view is very well defined - every human is a sinner, and nothing but being saved by God's grace (and not through any merit of ones own actions) can change the damnatory sentence to salvation. There is a judgement after death, and Christ will return to judge the living and dead. Those positively judged will be saved and live in God's presence in heaven, those who are negatively judged will be ca ...

Jewish Messiah: Encyclopedia II - Judaism and Christianity - Concepts of God

Both Jews and Christians believe in the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, for Jews the God of the Tanakh, for Christians the God of the Old Testament, the creator of the universe. Both religions reject the view that God is entirely immanent, and within the world as a physical presence, (although Christians believe in the incarnation of God). Both religions reject the view that God is entirely transcendent, and thus separate from the world, as the pre-Christian Greek Unknown God, (although this can be argued in some Judaic thought). Both religions re ...

Jewish Messiah: Encyclopedia II - Yechi - Recent developments

Following Rabbi Schneerson's death in 1994, the Chabad Lubavitch community split into two primary factions, a "messianic" and a "non-messianic" wing. Another recent development in intra-Lubavitch communal politics is the rise of a group known as the Tzfatnikim. They get this name from the fact that many of them have studied at the Chabad Yeshiva in Tz'fat (Safed), whose faculty and student body tend to lean toward the messianic side. [citation needed] This group is made up primarily of transient males between ...

Jewish Messiah: Encyclopedia II - Judaism and Christianity - Raison d'être of the religion

Each religion has a mythos, that is, an internal description of its raison d'être, its reason for being. Christianity's raison d'être is to provide all human beings with the only valid path to salvation (John 14:26). Christians believe people are by nature sinful. Christians believe that Jesus was both the Son of God and God the Son, God made incarnate; that Jesus' death by crucifixion was a sacrifice to atone for all humanity's s ...

Jewish Messiah: Encyclopedia II - Judaism and Christianity - Heaven and Hell

Judaism is largely unconcerned with the problem of death or an afterlife; the Biblical book of Ecclesiastes states that death is final; the place of the dead is called sheol, which means "the grave." Aside from the ghostly apparition of Samuel, called up by a witch at King Saul's command, the Hebrew Bible does not mention an afterlife. According to critical scholars, Biblical Jews first believed that God always punished evil, but always during a person's life — or, if the person is repentant, in the life of one of that persons' desc ...

Jewish Messiah: Encyclopedia II - Judaism and Christianity - Understanding of the Bible

Jews and Christians seek authority from many of the same basic books, but they conceive of these books in significantly different ways. The Hebrew Bible is comprised of three parts: Torah - the five books of Moses Nevi'im - the writings of the Prophets, and Ketuvim - other writings canonised over time, such as the Books of Esther, Jonah, Ruth or Job. Collectively, these are known as the Tanakh, a Hebrew acronym for the first letters of each. Rabbinical Judaism traditionally believes that th ...

Jewish Messiah: Encyclopedia II - Judaism and Christianity - Love

Love is a central value in both Judaism and Christianity. In Jesus and Yahweh: The Names Divine, literary critic Harold Bloom argues that their notions of love are fundamentally different. Specifically, he links the Jewish conception of love to justice, and the Christian conception of love to charity. As in English, the Hebrew word for "love," ahavah אהבה, is used to describe intimate or romantic feelings or relationships, such as the love between parent and child in Genesis 22:2; 25: 28; 37:3; the love between close friends in I Samuel 18:2, 20:17; or the love betw ...

Jewish Messiah: Encyclopedia II - Judaism and Christianity - Sin and Original Sin

In both religions, one's offenses against the will of God are called sin (in Christianity the full name is "actual sin"). These sins can be thoughts, words, or deeds. Catholicism categorizes sins into various groups. A wounding of the relationship with God is often called venial sin; a complete rupture of the relationship with God is often called mortal sin. Without salvation from sin (see below), a person's separation from God is ...

Both Jews and Christians regard pregnancy as a gift from God, and hold children to be miracles. The only statements in the Tanakh (Hebrew Bible, Christian Old Testament) about the status of a fetus state that killing an unborn infant does not have the same status as killing a born human being, and mandates a much lesser penalty (a fine); it should be added that the instance cited in the Tanakh contemplates the accidental ...
