Of course the question would have more answers if given phonetically.\n\nJudah for example.\nJudith\nJudy\nJuice (notice how the word sounds almost exactly like "Jews"?)\n\nOf course Hebrew never had a "J" sound, so you might want to look at \nYehudah\nYehudim\netc

Muslim word means "Devote one's self".... maybe in hebrew sister semitic language of arabic .... Jew use same kind of word for themselves....otherwise there is no evidence of muslim genocide by hitler.... that is being done by the jews....and their friends.

1)there is no such thing as 'Jewish blood.' A person can convert TO Judaism, and is therefore a Jew, and a person can convert from Judaism to another faith and is no longer a Jew. Jews define who is a Jew, not the wannabe-Jews.\n\n2)'clean' and 'unclean' are a bad translation. better would be something like, 'they will be considered gross to you,' or 'disgusting.'\n\n3)to answer your question, they are still relevant today TO JEWS. Jews were at Sinai, Jews received the commandments, and Jews were the ones commanded. \n\nPlease see http://WhatJewsBelieve.org

Christians use the creation story from the Jewish Bible -- Genesis.  The main difference is that Jews do not believe in "original sin."  We believe that all humans are created as a blank slate -- we become good/evil according to our choices and actions.\n.

Hebrews are a race of people. Jewish is a religion. Israeli is a nationality. You can be Jewish but unless you are born of Hebrew descent you can't be a Hebrew. It's like being of Cherokee descent rather than European descent. Kapeesh?

I am not sure if you are saying that you are Jewish and you are trying to understand for yourself what that means.  Or if you are asking generally what it means when a person considers themself Jewish.  \n\nIf your mother is Jewish and her mother was Jewish, etc. all the way to Biblical times then you are by definition Jewish.  To research this more for yourself, these websites are good. http://www.aish.com and http://www.chabad.org\n\nIf you were asking in general what makes a person Jewish, usually they are born into it but there are also many converts.  Within Judaism there is a whole range and spectrum of beliefs.  But generally we believe in the Torah given to us by G-d over 3300 years ago, and is our guide for life now and forever. (Torah is what Christians refer to as the Old Testament).  Judaism also involves many customs and traditions.\n\nI hope this answered your question.  \nFeel free to e-mail for more info.

that's a hard one :\nJesus - born a Jew, will not touch meat that is not kosher.\nMuhammad preferred camels.\nBuddha is a prince, he could not cook an omelet.\nKrishna was born a god, he would not touch it.

What about righteous Jews? Is Jonah Salk, a Jew, not in heaven even though he saved millions of lives with his polio vaccine? How about  a Christian Nazi who killed an innocent Jew? Is the Nazi in heaven and not the Jew?

Judaism has many aspects: to be Jewish is an identity that is ethnic, national, and religious.\n\nChristians are not Jews. Firstly, Jews themselves do not regard as such, which in and of itself disqualifies us. \n\nSecondly, St. Paul called those of us from a gentile background "gentiles." What he felt he had converted them to did not convert them into Jews, and indeed, he expressed his objection to some Judaizing members of the church, such as the Jerusalem Christians who visited once in a while.\n\nNot even Jews believe that having favour with God requires one to be Jewish. As to our own religion, the early Christians pinned their entire salvific hopes on faith in Christ... that is why St. Paul so famously said, "circumcision is nothing, and uncircumcision is nothing."\n\nWhile Christians would certainly believe Jesus founded Christianity in the moment he said, "You are Peter, and on this rock I found my church," it is important to note that the word "Christian" would not originate for another ten years or more, in the church at Antioch.

Your question makes it sound as though one can be EITHER Jewish OR Italian, Jewish OR Spanish, Jewish OR Indian. That is simply not true. One can be of any nation and/or race, and still be a Jew. There are Asian Jews, Caucasian Jews, African-American Jews and even just African Jews, and there are Hispanic Jews, and Jewish citizens of every nation on earth.\n\nMy heritage is Russian and Jewish, actually Ukranian and Jewish.\n\nAnd, since you asked, i Love Judaism and being a Jew!

This is a  better question. Unprovoked, a  Nazi kills a Jew. After the war, the Nazi dedicates his life to Jesus. The Nazi dies. Who is in heaven-the Nazi, the Jew, neither, or both?

Jewish is a religion, but Jewish is also a race of people. Jewish is the newer word for Hebrew. Jesus is Hebrew/Jewish

If I am interpreting your question incorrectly, I apologize.\n\nI have two terms...\nA Jewish American, and an American Jew.\n\nBecause of the way we interpret English, the second word is the important one and the first is a modifier.\n\nSo an Jewish American, considers himself and American of the Jewish faith.\n\nAn American Jew, consider himself a Jew fisrt and then a part of America.\n\nI consider myself an American Jew, so being Jewish is more important to me, but I love being and American.
