AJL is my preferred Biblical Scholar because, unlike the secular scholars, she allows for the spiritual/mystical dimension of faith, and unlike the Christian scholars, I don't have to figure out which of their interpretations is correct. AJL gives a clean perspective as a faithful Jew, who accepts Jesus as an authentic Rabbi/prophet in both traditions.
She said 7th century was when being Jewish became a question of maternal line. Is it 7th century BCE or AD? If AD why so late and what were the circumstances leading to that change.
Actually public education has always been a tool for coercion, and it is not as new as people guess! Ancient Judea actually did have public education! In fact Judea tried to enforce this compulsory education to last for more years not to get people literate but "re-educate." The Galileans were already so thoroughly educated in constitutional law as part of their communal values that they were seen as a threat to the Judean power structure. Public education was lauded as saving the Jewish people from ignorance of their national law (just like Americans truly blindly believe kids are learning well in our own schools)...but it was really meant to make people less attached to their communal histories and to be less challenging to the establishment.
What ruled from Adam until Jesus? Collective sin. Jesus came to reconcile us to collective sin. When God made a covenant with Israel it was a collective covenant touching the whole nation; as good as the bad. Read in the Old Testament what Jesus really did. No church teaches it quite rightly. When we understand this correctly, both Christians and Jews, we find that everything the Bible teaches is suddenly logical. You will find that Jesus did not establish a new religion but ushered in a new era in human history. The law is now for individuals. Jesus is now the King of all mankind under the law of God.
Everything you said was out of your imagination. I see you dont know hebrew and I hate to burst your bubble but there is nothing about Jesus in the Tanak nor anything supporting those made up ideas you preposed. This might be hard for you to accept but you know nothing about the scriptures as you do not know the language,culture,nor history.

This conversation is a gift for those of us who thought “there is a right answer” and have realized there is not.
This was a wonderful interview. Thanks you!

Sorry Jesus was not the messiah he is not the king of anything.
@@micahkiker3041 Anyway that's how we end up understanding after reading the Bible a few times when no one is there to teach us otherwise.

Sin is forgiven thru Tshuva thats it its the only thing required all this human sacrefice or an sacrefice is nonsense out of the pagan gentile mind.
No one wrote about Jesus until Paul did around 60CE. It is all mythology!
Would you consider that the early church spent little time writing because they expected Jesus’ soon return?
