Hi Ryan ( u/Slechta5614 )

You asked me last week to ping you for my comments & questions after I thrice :) watched this episode :) so.

  • U were doing Good, dropping the UM's, but you're back to Um, um, um. Just relax... Jesus is with you, don't you know :)

  • Why do you say "Father" ? in your prayer, when you always say you talk with Jesus - Sure he is also a Daddy, yet you know in my talking with him I simply say "Dear Jesus" nearly always. So just wonder why you say Father ? & too you talk so FAST that.Jesus can hardly get a word in edgewise :) Slow down & Listen to His responses... yes, even in a podcast :)

  • Talmud vs. Torah = ok (Torah 5 bks in OT.) Talmud is jewish Rabbie laws, got it now.

  • as you know I told U before = I was Excited to listen to Marsha as a Messianic Jewish sister. But after she quickly skipped back & forth, I got more confused, so I watched it again & finally found This https://www.jewbelong.com/more/different-kinds-jewish/ it says :

  1. Reform = largest group of North American Jews. Progressive, inclusive, and committed to equal rights (even before being all those things was a thing), it was the first organized movement to ordain women as rabbis and cantors and to elect women as presidents of synagogues. Less bound to rule-following and more focused on Jewish values.

  2. Secular = you can be an atheist & a Jew. About half of American Jews consider themselves Secular or somewhat Secular, according to a Pew study that was done in 2013. Judaism does not demand belief in God to be a good Jew.** It puts acts of kindness in front of faith. Secular Jews often include Jewish traditions and values in their lives**. Some may also belong to a synagogue or another Jewish community that does Jewish stuff but that don’t have a big focus on the God parts.

  3. Modern Orthodox Jews generally follow religious law strictly, but they are also full participants in modern society. They generally keep kosher, observe Shabbat with an all-the-rules approach, belong to a synagogue and go to services, have children in Jewish day school, and so on. Modern Orthodox women — they dress modestly with shirts that cover their shoulders and skirts that go to the knee. (tho I'm Not jewish this is also how I dressed... ((unless work in garden - then I'm in Overalls, lol))

  4. Conservative Judaism is a kind of middle ground between Reform & Modern Orthodox. Services are often a mix of Hebrew and English and there may be male and female rabbis, cantors, and educators. There’s a wide range of observance among Conservative Jews: Some keep kosher, some don’t; some refrain from work and driving on Shabbat, some don’t. In the 1970s, it was the biggest movement in American Judaism.

  5. Reconstructionist Judaism lands somewhere between Conservative and Reform. It started as an offshoot of the Conservative movement but today it’s closer to Reform. Services and observance seem traditional, but the overarching idea is that Jewish values and practices take precedence over religious rules and traditions. Reconstructionist Judaism seems to work well for interfaith families or Jews by choice. It’s heavier on meaning, welcoming and spirituality than on dogma.

  6. Ultra-Orthodox aka Haredi or Hasidic Jews, wearing black coats and hats with beards and, depending on their tradition, payot (side curls). Women are generally covered head to toe as well, and many wear wigs to cover their hair once they are married. (And no, according to the Ultra-Orthodox Jews we’ve asked, they don’t mind the heat any more than most do.) Men and women sit separately in Ultra-Orthodox synagogues, and women aren’t allowed to participate in some of the rituals, like reading from the Torah. It’s a broad group of people with many separate communities, but the one thing they generally agree on is that modern secular culture is not for them. Ultra-Orthodox communities tend to be tight-knit and focused around religious practice and guidelines. ((That description reminds me of the AMISH sort of ))

Chabad is an Ultra-Orthodox organization, but their focus is on Jewish outreach and they go out of their way to be welcoming, especially toward those with less knowledge of Jewish tradition.

And further..., it said :

  1. DISengaged Jews (DJs) are the biggest group of Jews and they are doing very little, if anything, Jewish — yet.

  2. oh, & those Culturally Jewish/Jewish-ish/JewCurious the people who have a Jewish heritage but aren’t really into it or connected in any meaningful way. They probably identify more with bagels and Seinfeld than with prayers or synagogues.

at 10:40 she mentioned #1, #3 & #4. - Where does Messianic fit? --- While there's also 5 more groups .

Confusing.... all those are to Non-jews ? I tried to Fit them all in. Too, Not every Jew has RED hair, right? - it's only her personal choice, yes?

Modern Orthodox women — they dress modestly with shirts that cover their shoulders and skirts that go to the knee. (tho I'm Not jewish this is also how I dressed... ((unless work in garden - then I'm in Overalls, lol))

  4. Conservative Judaism is a kind of middle ground between Reform & Modern Orthodox. Services are often a mix of Hebrew and English and there may be male and female rabbis, cantors, and educators. There’s a wide range of observance among Conservative Jews: Some keep kosher, some don’t; some refrain from work and driving on Shabbat, some don’t. In the 1970s, it was the biggest movement in American Judaism.

  5. Reconstructionist Judaism lands somewhere between Conservative and Reform. It started as an offshoot of the Conservative movement but today it’s closer to Reform. Services and observance seem traditional, but the overarching idea is that Jewish values and practices take precedence over religious rules and traditions. Reconstructionist Judaism seems to work well for interfaith families or Jews by choice. It’s heavier on meaning, welcoming and spirituality than on dogma.

  6. Ultra-Orthodox aka Haredi or Hasidic Jews, wearing black coats and hats with beards and, depending on their tradition, payot (side curls). Women are generally covered head to toe as well, and many wear wigs to cover their hair once they are married. (And no, according to the Ultra-Orthodox Jews we’ve asked, they don’t mind the heat any more than most do.) Men and women sit separately in Ultra-Orthodox synagogues, and women aren’t allowed to participate in some of the rituals, like reading from the Torah. It’s a broad group of people with many separate communities, but the one thing they generally agree on is that modern secular culture is not for them. Ultra-Orthodox communities tend to be tight-knit and focused around religious practice and guidelines. ((That description reminds me of the AMISH sort of ))

Chabad is an Ultra-Orthodox organization, but their focus is on Jewish outreach and they go out of their way to be welcoming, especially toward those with less knowledge of Jewish tradition.

And further..., it said :

  1. DISengaged Jews (DJs) are the biggest group of Jews and they are doing very little, if anything, Jewish — yet.

  2. oh, & those Culturally Jewish/Jewish-ish/JewCurious the people who have a Jewish heritage but aren’t really into it or connected in any meaningful way. They probably identify more with bagels and Seinfeld than with prayers or synagogues.

Hi Ryan ( u/Slechta5614 )

You asked me last week to ping you for my comments & questions after I thrice :) watched this episode :) so.

  • U were doing Good, dropping the UM's, but you're back to Um, um, um. Just relax... Jesus is with you, don't you know :)

  • Why do you say "Father" ? in your prayer, when you always say you talk with Jesus - Sure he is also a Daddy, yet you know in my talking with him I simply say "Dear Jesus" nearly always. So just wonder why you say Father ? & too you talk so FAST that.Jesus can hardly get a word in edgewise :) Slow down & Listen to His responses... yes, even in a podcast :)

  • as you know I told U before = I was Excited to listen to Marsha as a Messianic Jewish sister. But after she quickly skipped back & forth, I got more confused, so I watched it again & finally found This https://www.jewbelong.com/more/different-kinds-jewish/ it says :

  1. Reform = largest group of North American Jews. Progressive, inclusive, and committed to equal rights (even before being all those things was a thing), it was the first organized movement to ordain women as rabbis and cantors and to elect women as presidents of synagogues. Less bound to rule-following and more focused on Jewish values.

  2. Secular = you can be an atheist & a Jew. About half of American Jews consider themselves Secular or somewhat Secular, according to a Pew study that was done in 2013. Judaism does not demand belief in God to be a good Jew.** It puts acts of kindness in front of faith. Secular Jews often include Jewish traditions and values in their lives**. Some may also belong to a synagogue or another Jewish community that does Jewish stuff but that don’t have a big focus on the God parts.

  3. Modern Orthodox Jews generally follow religious law strictly, but they are also full participants in modern society. They generally keep kosher, observe Shabbat with an all-the-rules approach, belong to a synagogue and go to services, have children in Jewish day school, and so on.
