Would Judism Permit..?
Question
First for the record let me say I am not pro-abortion..yet I feel to ask...in case such as that of Amnon rape of his half sister Tamar..would the Torah permit a abortion...and permit the unborn soul to return to the L-D rather than let it be born and for the next 39 generations have the descendants bear the stigma of outcast mamzar from Judisam? If this reasoning is wrong...please correct me

08/18/2022 I sent the followin g query to ASk A Rabbi at Chabbad....On Judiasm and religios faith:
Years ago I read a saying from Chinses philisopher Confucious-what asked what 3 essentials were he said-suffiecent troops; food and faith. When asked what he would give up first he said troops; and what he would give up second he said food because passing away has been mans fate but a people without faith cannot survive...now is there a simiar saying in judisam..that in order for the Jewish people to survice as People of the Book..they must not only known but embrace the Iron Yoke of the Torah?

Hi ,
Thank you for sharing this interesting anecdote about Confucious. The answer to your question is yes! - Judaism most certainly does have such a quote.
We know that there are a total of 613 enduring commandments for all generations found in the Torah. There is a famous passage in the Talmud where various attempts are made to 'reduce' the total into either 11, 6, 3, 2 or 1 core ideas that truly capture and hold everything else. The passage ends by quoting the prophet Chavakuk, saying that he was able to have all of the Torah stand on just 1 principle, "But the righteous person shall live by his faith".
The passage is found in Tractate Makkot 24a..

Query on Jewish Marriage contracts and the Torah:
Question:
In regard to what is the Torah position on Jewish Marraige contracts...[fictional example] Groom pledges in Marriage contract to regard the bride as his only wife and to support her..he even vows that if he falls in love with another woman...as a second wife..he would not marry without first wife knowlege or permission or he would both divorce 1st wife and in either case support them both...yet he delibertly breaks the terms of the contract...by abandoning 1st wife..to remarry again...and does not divorce her nor support her..... now as to the principle when two persons sign a contract and one person fulfills the terms while the other does not ..rendering the contract null and void...would the Torah presume that the marriage contract is also null and void due to one party breaking the terms of it? If this reasoning is incorrect please correct me.. {note when I write of his choosing to be a bigamist I do not mean a special case when a man;s 1st wife becomes insane and he takes a seco
nd wife after received written permission from 100 rabbis in three different countries} .

It would be ironic if Jews in galat know Jewish History from Adam and eve to the Present -rather than Jews who Live in Israel but do now know the life of the Torah? Now is this a challenge for the torah/Orthadox parties to sav e the Jewish spark in Jewish lives from being killed by secular-moderism by teaching all who wish to know what is to be Jewish by openly teaching the Torah/Talmud/Oral law to them?

Hi ,
Attending a Jewish school, where the focus is actual Judaism, is of utmost importance for all Jewish children, in whatever country they are. I don't know what is specifically happening in Israel in this regard, but if it isn't an actual Jewish school, then we can't really have any expectations.

Many centures ago there was a race of Hebrews who came from Iraq.... they first settled in a land called Caanan...but were enslived by egypt. A prophet named Moses led them out.
The Jews settled in Caanan and had a state called Israel...
they had Kings named Saul; David and Solomon ...Solomon built a temple In Jerusalem but it no longer exists.
The Jews were scattered around the World in Disporia {exile}.
In the 1890s the Zionist Movement was founded by Theodore Herzl.
Jews who resettled the Land of Israel in farmming communites...the only real Modern Jews that exist....
In April 1948 the repuvlic of Israel was proclaimed to the world by David Ben Gurion whose life mission was to teach the youth of Israel...to became a modern atheist-secular state after shaking the shame of Disporia customs such as religion.
