Secrecy and Deceit: The Religion of the Crypto-Jews

Alvin Radkowsky, "The Relationship between Science and Judaism,"

The chosen people, without a doubt.

I came to belief in God because of physics, then had to make a determination of what to believe. I believe that God is unknowable, yet we all have a personal relation with God. I think that to God we are all equal, yet when it comes to religion, and history, the Jews definitely stand out as chosen. Either they control religion by a conspiracy, or God made it so.

Regardless, they must be given whatever they choose, otherwise we will have war. Consider that most wars have had a religious component, then think of how Judaism is the foundation of both Islam and Christianity. If religion is how you control people, then Judaism is how you control religion.   

If we are looking for a revelatory messianic solution, or if we wish to apply only logic and reason in coming to a final solution for the well being of mankind, the only effective path is through the Jewish people.     

Exodus 19 :  3 And Moses went up unto God, and the Lord called unto him out of the mountain, saying, Thus shalt thou say to the house of Jacob, and tell the children of Israel; 4 Ye have seen what I did unto the Egyptians, and how I bare you on eagles' wings, and brought you unto myself.5 Now therefore, if ye will obey my voice indeed, and keep my covenant, then ye shall be a peculiar treasure unto me above all people: for all the earth is mine:  6 And ye shall be unto me a kingdom of priests, and an holy nation. These are the words which thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel.  7 And Moses came and called for the elders of the people, and laid before their faces all these words which the Lord commanded him.

Avraham Abulafia

Abulafia developed a sophisticated theory of language, which assumes that Hebrew represents not so much the language as written or spoken as the principles of all languages, namely the ideal sounds and the combinations between them. Thus, Hebrew as an ideal language emcompasses all the other languages. This theory of language might have influenced Dante Alighieri. In his writings Abulafia uses Greek, Latin, Italian, Arabic, Tatar, and Basconian words for purpose of gematria.

Bahir

Sefer HaBahir   PDF   Until the publication of the Zohar, the Bahir was the most influential source of Kabbalistic teachings. It is quoted in virtually every major Kabbalistic work and is cited numerous times by the Ramban in his commentary on the Torah. It is also paraphrased and quoted many times in the Zohar. The name 'Bahir' literally means 'brilliant' or 'Illumination', and is derived from the first verse quoted in the text of the Bahir "And now they do not see the light, it is brilliant [bahir] in the skies", which itself is a quote from the book of Job (37:21). This book is also called "The Midrash of Rabbi Nehuniah ben haKana".

Symbolic Terms Have Many Interpretations

The language of concealment " The word "Raz"

The Hebrew "raz" is loaned from Aramaic. I haven't found it outside the Aramaic part of the book of Daniel (which is believed to have been written in the Hellenistic period after the reign of the Persian Empire).
"Secret" in Hebrew are: "סוד" (sod) and "דבר סתר" (dvar seter).
 believe both meanings of rāz are genuinely Iranian. Persian rāz "secret" is cognate to Skt. rahas-.
Pahlavi rāz "building" appears to be a loan from Parthian and may be related to Pahlavi abrāz "high, superior, height," which is traced to Old Iranian *uparyānk- “above, high.” Arabic rāz "builder, architect" was likely borrowed from Persian.

Falsifiers of the Talmud

The Talmud consists of two parts: the Mishnah, and its commentary, the Gemara. The Mishnah, compiled and edited by Judah Hanasi about 200 C.E., was the first Jewish code of laws since the Torah. There are two Gemaras, known as the Babylonian and the Palestinian. The former, completed about 500 C.E., is the record of the discussions of the Palestinian scholars. The Mishnah plus the Babylonian Gemara is known as the Babylonian Talmud; the Mishnah plus the Palestinian Gemara is known as the Palestinian Talmud. The two Talmuds have always been printed separately, and never together.
