Question
Shalom,   In Daniel 9:26-27, is this passage foretelling of the Messiah being sacrificed in the middle of the week?

Question
Dear Rabbi, How can we pray for changing someones heart? Which prayers we should read? And how to pray for the impossible? Thank you.

Question
Shalom,   I am hopeful you might help me understand the practice of ‘T’shuvah’.   I understand it is related to the atonement for sins, but I have a few pertinent questions about it.   Is T’shuvah strictly limited to only the month of Elul and the days surrounding Yom Kippur? Are others involved in the process. For example, if you are atoning for something you did that offended a family member, are they are necessary part of the process? Or, does the repentant seeking atone with or through God? Would you be able to reconcile the situation without the help or outright forgiveness of that offended family member/   I appreciate any answers you may provide.   Thank you for your time and attention.

Question
I have been raised as a Christian, however, my documented genealogy going back to the early 1800's are Jews from Poland, Russia, and Romania. My mother is the only Christian. Because my mom was not Jewish, would I not have a claim to the Jewish religion? My surname is Lebovitz. Many thanks for your reply.
