Question
I'm not sure if I remember this correctly, but I once read a story about a Talmud sage whose family came from Babylon who did not want his daughter to marry his disciple whose family came from the Land of Israel, and there might have been some issue with the disciple's lineage. Assuming my details are correct, do you know the name of the rabbi?

Question
As we’ve seen, the Gregorian date October 7 has been remembered as the anniversary of the tragedy last year. But will Shemini Atzeret also be thought of as a sad day for the foreseeable future? Will festivities on Shemini Atzeret be curtailed this year or any future years in memory of those who perished? Will any memorial services be held?

Question
I am currently preparing a lesson on Joshua's preparation to take over after Moses has passed. However, I am reading from someone that Moses had a temporary tent of meeting which is not the Tabernacle. This is the first time I have ever read such a thing. They are saying it is based on the original Hebrew of Exodus 33 verse 7. I am unable to find any substantiation of this in my library. Could this have any validity? Thank you

Question
I am learning history, and it seems that historians believe that the first people came to American via the Bering Strait about 11,000 years ago. We can't deny that they came, and we can't deny that they were there. It's not even as far fetched as the historians who say that the world was created billions of years ago. But what do we do with this information wen we don't believe that the world is 11,000 years old? How do we reconcile this "history" with our ideology?

Question
Hello, First off I want to state I am Christian researching and studying my bible, specifically Old Testament and the book of Exodus as of now. I apologise for any ignorance on my part and seeking advice from here where I deem it more appropriate for my questions. In my denomination (Roman Catholic), we date the exodus around 1446. Looking into this I ended up seeing correlation with research presented by 'Simcha Jacobovici' also known as the 'Naked Historian'. Did the Exodus Happen? | Simcha Jacobovici (Naked Archaeologist) https://youtu.be/QoQBRZYyDm4?si=VwrvICk00-MV3UbF&t=4038 I share an interview where he outlines his views around such dating but what stood out for me was his claim of the Talmud where he states; ' The Talmud states that only 20% of the people standing at mount Sinai were Israelites '. This is around the 01:07:18 point. My question is where are the sources for such a claim as upon google and self research I have not found anything which correlates. I also understand that the Talmud can be complex and a touchy subject online and want to reach out to my Jewish Brothers directly for the information instead. What is the consensus on what distinguished an Israelite at Mount Sinai, and further was this distinct from titles/labels such as 'Hebrew'. Additionally further I would like to bring attention to the following article: How Many Israelites Actually Left Egypt? | Mayim Achronim Here the claim is made that; ' the word אלף should not be read as elef, “thousand”, but as aluf, “chief”, or alef, “clan” '. Could this be a more sincere way of interpreting the Exodus. and the number involved, as well as the Mixed Multitude.   Best regards, E Potter
