Two questions: In the old Testament the Jewish people had a lineage, What is the lineage for the Jesish people toady? Is the waiting for the messiah as strong today as in the old Testament?

what does the bible say about the act of having the body cremated

Dear Rabbi: I need the names of biblical couples whose names start with the same letter. Must be referenced in Sefer Bereishis, or Parshios Shmos or Vaeyra (text, Midrash, Rashi, wherever) Like - Noach/Naama; Aaron/Elisheva Any more you can think of? Thanks for helping! Barry Farkas

Why is Moshe considered the greatest of navi? Avraham followed every command from Hashem without question; leaving his family, wandering from place to place, sending one wife and son into the desert, offering a second son as a sacrifice. Moshe, on the other hand is constantly questioning, if not outright challenging Hashem. "I can't talk to Pharoah", "The people won't listen to me", "We have to go WHERE without a map?" I am obviously missing the key piece that elevates Moshe over the rest. What is that piece or pieces? Thanks.
