Jesus fulfilled the law. Matthew 5:17
Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.
Being Jewish and Christian are not mutually exclusive. The first Christians and Jesus were Jewish and the Old Testament mentions Jesus. Who is the angel of the Lord? | GotQuestions.org

Being Jewish doesn't mean you don't believe in Jesus it means you do Jewish stuff, like celebrate the Jewish festivals that are mentioned in the scriptures. The Old Testament talks about the Trinity. Trinity: Oneness in unity not in number: Yachid vs. Echad

Loving God and my neighbor as myself.
Don't change the subject. A day doesn't get fulfilled. LIke I said, Yom Kippur doesn't need fulfilling.
No, you don't seem to understand. Your claim that "the Rabbinic Movement" came out of nowhere is a Christian view. It's not a Jewish one. If you really want to, as you folks say, "graft" yourself onto some form of Judaism, Karaism is probably more your thing, because they also believed that the majority of Jews "invented" "rabbinic judaism".
Evidence?
Hah! That'll be the proverbial day, when Messianics admit that just about everything they do in their totally-non-Orthodox-based churchy "synagogues" is based on what Orthodox Jews do (yep, those that received these things from "the rabbis", who "invented" everything), and just mixed it up with Jesussian stuff. On that day, they'll probably turn Karaite. Karaite Christians. Has an interesting ring to it.

Just an aside.
For Christians who quote the NT as if it proves something about Jesus, his supposed actions, the history and theology around the NT, or 1st century Israeli history it is important for you to re-read the OP.
If you read the OP you should understand that quoting the NT doesn't convince Torath Mosheh and Orthodox Jews of anything you are trying to claim. It actually shows us the opposite of what you are tryting to claim.
Further, quoting the NT doesn't always convince your fellow Christians of your points so it would definately not convince those of us who see the entire NT text is being non-authentic, in-accurate, and authored by what we called (עובדי עבודה זרה) "Those who do Avodah Zara."
Literally, you might as well be quoting from the Necronomicon instead because for Torath Mosheh and Orthodox Jews, and even many non-Torath Mosheh and Orthodox Jews, the NT is on the same ground as books like the Necronomicon, the Mormon writings of Joseph Smith, or any of works that Christians don't agree with.

Not an answer at all, of course--because all non-Christian religion is the same non-answer. "Be good and hope for the best."
The Christian answer IS an answer--no one logically can live in a utopia and sin/hurt others. The Christian trusts Yeshua today, per the Bible, for eternal life, than is not only forgiven but TRANSFORMED when meeting Yeshua in person.
In Heaven, per the Bible, I'll still be me but without the propensity to break God's commandments.

Where did I say "hope for the best"? Instead it is "do what you are supposed to, apologize for the mistakes and God takes care of the rest." That's called faith.
Ah, "trust" -- your version of "faith." Look. Same non-answer.
That's great! Way to hope for the best!
Hi Harel13
Harel13 said : “Your claim that "the Rabbinic Movement" came out of nowhere is a Christian view. “
You are misquoting me. I did not say that the Rabbinic Movement came out of “nowhere”.
Like most movements, Judaism had schisms.
The latter rabbinic movement is simply a schism of earlier Judaism.
After the destruction of the Jerusalem temple it became more Dominant, perhaps.
But a schism nonetheless.
Clear claimed “The Rabbinic movement abandoned some of their early textual traditions.”
Harel13 said : “Evidence?”
Harel13, describe what your Judaism teaches about what God was doing before he began to create this earth and lets look at those traditions first.

When replying to someone, I recommend either tagging them, or quoting their post, so they'll know you're talking to them.
My comment was based on things you've said on this thread, for example, post 202. I exaggerated a bit for effect.
One midrash says that God created several hundred worlds and destroyed them. What'd your god do, create a "word"?
Hi @Harel13 (I will try to remember to tag or quote you so you know I have responded - thank you for the reminder).

There is a difference between an "exaggeration" and a "deception".
I never claimed the modern Jewish Rabbinic Movement "came out of nowhere".
Your claim that this is a "Christian view" is also a deceptive statement.
This is not how Christianity typically views Rabbinic Judaism.

The ancient Christian God was Jehovah of the Old Testament. And so, yes, before he created this world, he had other creations such as the several hundred words you referred to.
I think this is a good start in examining Rabbinic Traditions and which ones they have and which they abandoned.
What else was God doing before creation besides creating other worlds in the traditions of the Orthodox Rabbinic Jewish movement?

Really. Quite a great number of Christians I've spoken with online hold some version or other of this view. I guess online Christians are all fringe. Who knew.
Nothing comes to mind at the moment.
Nobody really follows the Siniatic Covenant. People either follow the covenant of Jesus Christ or they follow the traditions of the rabbis. The New Covenant is a more natural and regular continuation of the Old Testament and gives an appropriate answer to the messianic hope of the Old Testament.
Hi @Harel13
1) REGARDING THE JEWISH CLAIM THAT IT IS A "CHRISTIAN VIEW" THAT "THE RABBINIC MOVEMENT CAME OUT OF NOWHERE".

"Quite a great number" you've spoken with? No "exaggeration"?
If there have been "quite a great number" of Christians you have spoke with that believe "the Rabbinic Movement came out of nowhere", then will you give us merely 5 quotes that show Christians actually believe that "the Rabbinic Movement came out of 'nowhere'"?
2) REGARDING THE CHRISTIAN CLAIM THAT THE RABBINIC MOVEMENT ABANDONED SOME OF THE EARLY TEXTUAL TRADITIONS THAT THE ANCIENT CHRISTIANS RETAINED
Clear claimed “The Rabbinic movement abandoned some of their early textual traditions while many of the earliest Christians retained them.” (post #505)
Harel13 said : “Evidence?” (post #548)
Clear asked : "Harel13, describe what your Judaism teaches about what God was doing before he began to create this earth and lets look at those traditions first." (post # 554)
Harel13 responded : "One midrash says that God created several hundred worlds and destroyed them. What'd your god do, create a "word"?" (post #555)

Harel13 responded : "Nothing comes to mind at the moment." (post #557)
So, you are saying that the only tradition that the rabbinic movement retained regarding what God was doing before creating this earth was that he was creating and then destroying other worlds?
No other traditions regarding this time period?
Do you want to do a bit of research and confirm this point that this is the only Rabbinic tradition that was retained concerning this time period before we proceed or are you comfortable with this description of only a single Rabbinic tradition concerning this time period?
Will another member of the Rabbinic Movement PM Harel13 if THEY know of any other Rabbinic traditions concerning this time period? (or simply post one if you are aware of one).

No. I said that nothing comes to mind at the moment. I didn't realize I was talking to Clear, the human supercomputer who remembers every single source in the Christian compendium by heart.
Not at the moment, and not merely because I never said anything of the sort (see above), but mostly because this still doesn't answer my question. Where are you going with this? Where's the evidence for your claim?
