I KNOW what I know - and I do not even know a FRACTION of what the
M'forshim yesterday and today know
But nevertheless, even with the MINISCULE Torah knowledge that I
have, I can see clearly what you all do NOT know
You are going round and round and round in circles without having
inner UNDERSTANDING.
There is a difference between KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING
There are even different words in HEBREW
All I am saying is that, if you MUST engage in word dissection, if
you really WANT TO UNDERSTAND, and are not just playing with letters
for the sake of it, then AT LEAST study ALSO what the M'forshim/Oral
Torah has to tell you.
You might enjoy the ADDITIONAL INFORMATION - providing, of course,
that you are really interested.
Shoshanna
If you would ONLY believe me
The M'forshim, those who wrote down the Oral Torah, knew SO MUCH
MORE THAN YOU!
If ONLY you would listen
Shoshanna,
How do you KNOW so assuredly that they knew so much more than we do
today? It seems to me that in order to make that judgment, you would
need to know not only more than others today, but more than those
whose views you promote.
