No, the ""holy trinity"" of Judaism is \n1)Gd, \n2)Torah, and \n3)Israel. \n\nThis is 1)Gd, who is One, indivisible, and unique, \ngave a revelation, 2)Torah both written and oral, \nto the 3)People of Israel, meaning those who are descendants from Abraham and Sarah, Isaac and Rebekkah, and Jacob and Leah and Rachel, and those who converted to the religion of the Jews, which is to Judaism.

Upon first glance, I thought this question belonged over in the Chemistry section.  Haha.  \n\nSeriously, I found this excerpt and feel it's contents are highly relevant especially since currently it is that time of year.  The exerpt reads:  \n\n"...Good Friday (pascha staurösimon, parasceve, or paraskeuë _ i. e. the day of preparation for the Israelitic Sabbath _ cæna pura, dies absolutionis, dies salutaris). _ On this day the Church commemorates the Passion of Christ, so that it is the most sad and solemn of all the days in Holy Week. The officiating clergy appear in black vestments, and prostrate themselves before the altar, which still remains stripped. Nor are the candles lighted. After a short pause, the altar is covered with white cloths, and passages of the Old Testament, followed by the history of the Passion from St. John, are read. Next, the Church prays solemnly for all conditions of men, for all the members of the hierarchy, for the prosperity of Christian people, for catechumens, heretics, Jews, and Pagans. Before each prayer the sacred ministers genuflect, except before that for the Jews, when the genuflection. is omitted in detestation of the feigned obeisance with which the Jews mocked Christ. When the prayers are ended, the cross, which has been up to this time covered with black, is exposed to view, "adored" and kissed by clergy and people. [*Here is where you will really want to pay close attention...]  During the adoration the "Improperia" are sung, each improperium being followed by the Trisagion in Greek and in Latin. Improperium is a barbarous word used by Latin writers of a late age, meaning "reproach," and these "reproaches" are addressed in dramatic form by Christ to the Jewish people. They begin with the touching words, "My people, what have I done to thee, wherein have I vexed thee? Answer me." The Trisagion is so called because the word "holy" occurs three times in it: "Holy God, holy [and] strong, holy [and] immortal, have pity on us." It was first introduced at Constantinople, and it is probably because of its Greek origin that it is recited in the Good Friday office in Greek as well as in Latin..."\n\nI hope this helps answer your question.

Im not sure I understand your question. The Magen David, or Shield of David is a kabbalistic symbol historically that became our main identifying symbol about 150 years ago. Up until then, it had been the menorah. Being Jewish is both a religion and a backround. If you believe that Jesus was the messiah, then you are clearly NOT Jewish. Either by religion or backround. MEssianic Jews are another story. They are Christians. They are people of Jewish backrounds who are confused, or they are Christians who think that Ha'eretz Yisrael is their birthright. Both are delusional. We believe that the messiah has yet to come, and we hold our traditions and ancient teachings close to our hearts. We are very accepting of people willing to convert, and love to discuss the Torah. There is an old joke about getting 2 Jews to agree on the TOrah. We discuss, argue and question, rather than blindly accept rhetoric. I thank God I am Jewish.

"  1) There is one God: Deuteronomy 6:4; 1 Corinthians 8:4; Galatians 3:20; 1 Timothy 2:5.\n\n2) The Trinity consists of three Persons: Genesis 1:1; 1:26; 3:22; 11:7; Isaiah 6:8; 48:16; 61:1; Matthew 3:16-17; Matt 28:19; 2 Corinthians 13:14. In the passages in the Old Testament, a knowledge of Hebrew is helpful. In Genesis 1:1, the plural noun "Elohim" is used. In Genesis 1:26; 3:22; 11:7 and Isaiah 6:8, the plural pronoun for "us" is used. That "Elohim" and "us" refer to more than two is WITHOUT question. In English, you only have two forms, singular and plural. In Hebrew, you have three forms: singular, dual, and plural. Dual is for two ONLY. In Hebrew, the dual form is used for things that come in pairs like eyes, ears, and hands. The word "Elohim" and the pronoun "us" are plural forms - definitely more than two - and must be referring to three or more (Father, Son, Holy Spirit).\n\nIn Isaiah 48:16 and 61:1, the Son is speaking while making reference to the Father and the Holy Spirit. Compare Isaiah 61:1 to Luke 4:14-19 to see that it is the Son speaking.  Matthew 3:16-17 describes the event of Jesus' baptism. Seen in this is God the Holy Spirit descending on God the Son while God the Father proclaims His pleasure in the Son.  Matthew 28:19 and 2 Corinthians 13:14 are examples of 3 distinct persons in the Trinity.\n\n3) The members of the Trinity are distinguished one from another in various passages: In the Old Testament, "LORD" is distinguished from "Lord" (Genesis 19:24; Hosea 1:4). The "LORD" has a "Son" (Psalm 2:7, 12; Proverbs 30:2-4). Spirit is distinguished from the "LORD" (Numbers 27:18) and from "God" (Psalm 51:10-12). God the Son is distinguished from God the Father (Psalm 45:6-7; Hebrews 1:8-9). In the New Testament, John 14:16-17 is where Jesus speaks to the Father about sending a Helper, the Holy Spirit. This shows that Jesus did not consider Himself to be the Father or the Holy Spirit. Consider also all of the other times in the Gospels where Jesus speaks to the Father. Was He speaking to Himself? No. He spoke to another person in the Trinity - the Father.\n\n4) Each member of the Trinity is God: The Father is God: John 6:27; Romans 1:7; 1 Peter 1:2. The Son is God: John 1:1, 14; Romans 9:5; Colossians 2:9; Hebrews 1:8; 1 John 5:20. The Holy Spirit is God: Acts 5:3-4; 1 Corinthians 3:16 (The One who indwells is the Holy Spirit - Romans 8:9; John 14:16-17; Acts 2:1-4).\n\n5) The subordination within the Trinity: Scripture shows that the Holy Spirit is subordinate to the Father and the Son, and the Son is subordinate to the Father. This is an internal relationship, and does not deny the deity of any person of the Trinity. This is simply an area which our finite minds cannot understand concerning the infinite God. Concerning the Son see: Luke 22:42; John 5:36; John 20:21; 1 John 4:14. Concerning the Holy Spirit see: John 14:16; 14:26; 15:26; 16:7 and especially John 16:13-14.\n\n6) The tasks of the individual members of the Trinity: The Father is the ultimate source or cause of: 1) the universe (1 Corinthians 8:6; Revelation 4:11); 2) divine revelation (Revelation 1:1); 3) salvation (John 3:16-17); and 4) Jesus' human works (John 5:17; 14:10). The Father INITIATES all of these things.\n\nThe Son is the agent through whom the Father does the following works: 1) the creation and maintenance of the universe (1 Corinthians 8:6; John 1:3; Colossians 1:16-17); 2) divine revelation (John 1:1; Matthew 11:27; John 16:12-15; Revelation 1:1); and 3) salvation (2 Corinthians 5:19; Matthew 1:21; John 4:42). The Father does all these things through the Son, who functions as His agent.\n\nThe Holy Spirit is the means by whom the Father does the following works: 1) creation and maintenance of the universe (Genesis 1:2; Job 26:13; Psalm 104:30); 2) divine revelation (John 16:12-15; Ephesians 3:5; 2

The Jews lost the right to be Gods chosen race of people when they murdered Gods son. However present day jews will be judged the same as all mankind.. for their stand or defiance against God and his kingdom

Wow!! you sound sincere, so I think I am going to answer this, even though I prefer not to go into the religious section. I also studied the bible and continue to do so. The concept of the trinity is not scriptural, and its origin is based in false worship. If you would like further in depth explanations as to it origin, feel free to email me.

Luther. This antisemitic dogma was then used by Hitler to justify his atrocities.\n\n"For thus says the LORD of hosts: 'He sent Me after glory, to the nations which plunder you; for he who touches you touches the apple of His eye.'"

You mean the "akeidat Yitzchak" which is Hebrew for the Binding of Isaac when Abraham offered Isaac up on an altar and almost sacrificed him at God's behest.

Being of the jewish  race they probably prayed to God as the jews are monotheistic based?Hear ye o Israel the lord God is one!says so in the Bible. check it out?Trinity was conceived at the Coucil of Nicea? I think?it explains the Father,Son,Holy Ghost most Christians believe in?One reason Muslims have a problem with Christians is their belief in a triune god[3 godhead]as they believe in Allah as the one true god?

According to the Code of Jewish Law (the "Shulchan Aruch"), there are three\nrequirements for a valid conversion:\n\n1) Mikveh - All converts must immerse in the Mikveh - a ritual bath linked to a reservoir\nof rain water.\n\n2) Milah - Male converts must undergo circumcision by a qualified "Mohel." If he was\npreviously circumcised by a doctor, he then undergoes a ritual called "hatafas dam."\n\n3) Mitzvot - This is the clincher. The convert must believe in God and the divinity of the\nTorah, as well as accept upon himself to observe all 613 mitzvot (commandments) of the\nTorah. This includes observance of Shabbat, Kashrut, etc. -- as detailed in the Code of\nJewish Law, the authoritative source for Jewish observance. This means that a motor\nvehicle is not used on Shabbat, that cheese is eaten only with kosher supervision, that a\nwoman uses the mikveh every month, that hands are ritually washed before every bread\nmeal, that the status of a Kohen is preserved, and much much more.\n\nAll of the above must be done before a court of three Jewish men who themselves\nbelieve in God, accept the divinity of the Torah, and observe the mitzvot.

God chose us to be a holy people (separate, apart).  His people would not do certain things other peoples do.  \nHis people would not worship any other God.\nHis people could continue to make sacrifices like other peoples, but NEVER a human sacrifice.\nHis people would not murder.\nHis people would not judge without written laws that apply to all -- including the leaders -- and appointed judges to determine guilt.\n\nand so it goes on and on for 613 laws.\n\nIn other words His people were, and still are, the dissenting voice when the majority has gone awry.  Where was the dissenting voice during the Crusades, the Inquisition, the Holocaust?  \n\nWhy would anyone want to be God's holy (separate/apart) people?

Absolutely. If you read your OT you will find their God routinely telling the Jews to kill all the people in some neighboring country. One gets the impression God loved the Jews and hated everyone else on earth.\n\nThe OT God also routinely killed Jews for minor transgressions against tyrannical demands.\n\nStoning people to death for minor transgression of their laws was a popular pastime among the ancient Jews. They believed God wanted this.\n\n\nevilbible.com has tons of examples to support everything I am saying.

No Jews can trace their lineage back that far, due to the destruction of Jerusalem around A.D. 70. If he claims to be descended from Ishmael or Esau, though, I suppose that may be possible. But I doubt it.
