Dear Rabbi Moshe Newman, You said me to call on an Orthodox Rabbi whom I can speak with at length about my personal situation. But I don't know any Rabbi Orthodox or not. And according to best of my knowledge far from Rabbi there is not a single Jew lives in our country. Now what to do? I am ready to come Israel for permanent living. Will you help me? By the way, are you in Israel or USA? Here I fail to collect a Stone edition Chumas as you advised me to read. If it is possible will you please give me a copy as a gift? I want to start a new life. Best wishes, Habibur Rahman

Firstly, please, please, please. keep this secret and anonymous. I don't want this to leak to anyone in the whole wide world. Thanks! I come from an orthodox family. Actually, ultra orthodox. The details of my story don't exactly matter, but I have this guy now, whom I'm very good friends with. We both know we can't do whatever we want with each other, but he would like to go somewhere with our relationship. Could you please tell me exactly what and how much is forbidden? Are we allowed to touch? To kiss? How far can I go, and where should I stay clear from? Please, this issue is really very important to me. I'd appreciate if u can get back to me, ASAP. It's urgent and I'm desparate. Really. Again, please, please, please, please keep this PRIVATE and CONFIDENTIAL. Thank you very very very much.

I have a question regarding the Hebrew language. I do not yet speak it, but the word '-et and 'et- as found in Genesis 1:1, Genesis1:27, Genesis 2:7-8. The word has no translation into English so what is the idea that the word attempt to convey? Is the word hyphenated along with another word, such as a verb, in order to point to the next direct object? if so, does this word proced the verb or how is this decided? Thanks, Michael

Can you tell me if we are allowed to hand up a needlepoing of "The Serenity Prayer?" It has G-D in it but the letter "O" is included. Can it be hung up if the "O" is removed? Thank you very much. Most sincerely, Margaret

Are there any jewish traditions or laws that stipulate that a child who is named after a deceased relative has rights to or is obligated to accept property from that relative's estate? My mother in-law insists that it is jewish tradition that my 13 month old son should accept an antique sterling silver coffee/tea service set because he is named after the person who owned it at one time. Please reply and let us know if any such tradition really exists. Thank you for your time. Sarah and David Corekin
