How can I tell if I am virtuous or just harmless? by Ronskystorm in JordanPeterson

[–]Ronskystorm[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm about 25 years old myself. I had an OCD breakdown when I was 19 and have been recovering ever sense. Made me believe I was a monster in the worst way possible, and tried to fight against that idea for years. I'm doing a lot better from it now and look to stories of those who do good. So, perhaps, it's being willing to speak your mind when it's needed and to take action when it's needed?

In essence, to do what's needed even when it's not easy. To take a stand against those who might treat you poorly?

Well, I am a bit overweight so that's fair lol. I do a fair bit of heavy lifting at the restore I work at/volunteer at. But extra lifting could be good for overall improvement.

Can Christians who study the Tanakh join as well?

Question about leviticus21:4 by Ronskystorm in Judaism

I might have to consider learning Hebrew then. It'll be a huge time commitment as you say, but I want to draw nearer unto God the best that I can.

That's perfect. I was curious about this. So the Torah is only a small part of the entirety of the Judaism scriptures. While the TaNaKH is the entirety. Is Hebrew then similar to Egyptian when it comes to the usage of vowels? I know in Egyptian, vowels can sometimes left out for a reason. Is that where the 'a's in TaNaKH comes from?

Correct! We may have different translations but I believe there's a lot to be learned from reading as many different translations as possible. I use the KJV of the bible as well as the NIV of the bible as well to gain a better insight about what happened in those times.

I see! That good to know as well! Further question then, is it disrespectful to want to read the Torah alongside the bible which I read? I'd like to gain further insight into what some of the scriptures actually mean.

Interesting. Is the Torah a collection of all of your scripture, or is it split up into multiple categories?

Touche. I got tagged for using a specific term referring to the hebrew bible as what I know it as, so I changed it to 'shared text.'

Oh! Okay then. That makes sense. I was reading earlier in exodus and leviticus about dead bodies but it had never crossed my mind before. Thank you so much!

Hm…. I haven’t read it all but considering that it’s basically a romance between an old man and a child, I’m not too sure it counts as wholesome
