WHEN & HOW DID Judaism START?

[Music] when and how did Judaism start so theim debate whether Judaism starts with Abu Oru why is there a debate technically it shouldn't be a debate we should know clearly now in some's eyes it is clear Judaism started with M how do we know because be in the Torah before Mount saai was not called the Jewish people rather we were called the Israelites the Hebrews we only became Jews officially at Mount saai why what happened at Mount saai we received the Torah we received the Torah we accepted the Torah That's What Makes You Jewish and one of our proofs is aside from what I just said is that anyone can become Jewish with their observance of the tah like you could be born a Christian or Muslim but if you want to comply with the entire T which means that you'll go through a formal conversion and a recognized bed and uh you know live a life in accordance to the Torah you can become a full-blown Jew say oh yeah but that's probably like a converts probably like a like a defective Jew right it's like a deformed Jew it's like a lesser Jew wrong opposite according to the Torah a convert is considered a real convert a righteous convert whether male male or female a righteous convert is considered higher higher than a natural born Jew you could see the uh the rambam writes a letter to a one of his students and it's a very uh famous letter how he tells him how the uh the uhad I think his name wasad uh or B I don't know how you explain how you say it but anyway he writes the letter and he tells him that he's je rambam is jealous of him of this convert he's jealous of him why cuz he's like hey oh I didn't choose to be Jewish I uh you know I was born this way you chose to be Jewish me I have my father Ra's father was sadik he says you know your father is ab ab is your father who was the one of having AB you can say yeah but my grandfather is also AB yeah it's your grandfather famous's father famous his father is AB that's his father the convert is father is so ra says you're praiseworthy so now a uh a person that accepts the Tor accepts the becomes a Jew so we as a nation accepted the T and the MIT at Mount thereby beginning Judaism out Mount saai so why is there a debate about Judaism possibly starting beforehand because we even though Judaism began at the time of M at Mount sa we still say that our forefathers are and yob and says that and yob had the entire Tora both the the the oral Tora they had the written Tora was given later on but they had the Tora and they were fulfilling the tah they're fulfilling the T and in fact they had a more extensive Torah than ours more extensive to than us our tractate of of has five sections abu's track dat of had 400 sections which we talked about the different opinions of why it's 400 versus five but the point being is is that he had oral T and he fulfilled the Tor so say if he fulfilled the Tor then he was the first Jew and some of the say yes Abraham was 100% a Jew Jew even though he was by himself but some say no it cannot be because technically he was a noahide fulfilling the 99% 99% he knew that he was not allowed to keep Shabbat so he would violate it by creating a cow every Shabbat that's how there was no electric back then so you create a cow instead uh that's that's create a cow now the CR on Shabbat and that's also the reason of why yob was able to marry two sisters was able to marry two sisters you're not all to marry two sisters a Jew is not all to marry two sisters yov marri two sisters why because he was again he was a noahide noahide allowed so the point being is but then they said yeah but maybe it's because he was a Jew but he wasn't allowed to do it in Israel and that's why before they went back to is RA died that's why she died because it's not allowed in is but it's allowed outside and is a debate many many pages many many pages point being is Judaism for sure started no later than Mount saai some say it even started at abrah and yob needless to say all of them are KES kashim all of us are descendants of and yob and and yob are something that are beyond our comprehension and their children are beyond our comprehension uh as far as where uh where judaism's starting point is officially uh like I said it's most common answer that I know is Mount but that doesn't lessen doesn't lessen Shalom the status and significance of doesn't doesn't lessen
