Extractions: Toward a Mature Messianic Judaism With the cry "Hashivenu" the Torah service concludes, imploring God to bring us back to himself. It is our conviction that HaShem brings Messianic Jews to a richer knowledge of himself through a modern day rediscovery of the paths of our ancestorsAvodah (liturgical worship), Torah (study of sacred texts), and Gemilut Chasadim (deeds of lovingkindness). Our goal is a mature Messianic Judaism. We seek an authentic expression of Jewish life maintaining substantial continuity with Jewish tradition. However, Messianic Judaism is energized by the belief that Yeshua of Nazareth is the promised Messiah, the fullness of Torah. Mature Messianic Judaism is not simply Judaism plus Yeshua, but is instead an integrated following of Yeshua through traditional Jewish forms and the modern day practice of Judaism in and through Yeshua. Messianic Judaism will only attain maturity when it has established communal institutions which are capable of expressing its ideals and transmitting them effectively to ourselves, to our children, and to a skeptical world. Values and Convictions of Hashivenu Messianic Judaism is a Judaism, and not a cosmetically altered "Jewish-style" version of what is extant in the wider Christian community.

Extractions: Jewish renewal is non-denominational (sometimes referred to as trans- or post-denominational) Judaism. It honors the important and unique role of each denomination, but does not seek to become a denomination itself. Because of its emphasis on direct spiritual experience and mystical or Kabbalistic teachings, Jewish renewal is sometimes referred to as Neo-Hasidic or Four Worlds Judaism (a reference to the "four worlds" of Jewish mysticism). While we seek to restore the spiritual vitality characteristic of the Hasidic movement of pre-war Europe, we believe, along with the Reconstructionists, that Judaism is an evolving religious civilization. This is what differentiates us from the Baal Tshuvah movement, which we refer to as Restorationist. Not really. Jewish Renewal is sometimes referred to as "New Age" by people who do not know that meditation, dance, chant, and mysticism have been present in Judaism throughout the ages and not, as some mistakenly believe, patched on to Judaism from other cultures or made up out of whole cloth. Sadly, some of our authentic, time-honored beliefs and practices have been lost to assimilationism, leaving many contemporary Jews largely unaware of them. This is a major reason why so many spiritually sensitive Jews have sought spiritual expression in other faith traditions. It is an important part of ALEPH's mission to make the "hidden" treasures of Judaism known and accessible to these seekers.

Jewish Tradition Forgotten By Messianic Judaism: What About The Preservation Of
148. Jewish Tradition Forgotten By messianic judaism. In messianic judaism,many of the Holy Days and traditions of Judaism are observed.

Extractions: "0' the hope of Israel, the saviour thereof in time of trouble..." J er. 14:8 Jewish Tradition Forgotten By Messianic Judaism In Messianic Judaism, many of the Holy Days and traditions of Judaism are observed. They do not want to leave the Jewish identity, heritage, and culture behind. Most Messianic Jews appear to be much more "zealous for the Law (Torah)" than their Gentile Christian counterparts. However, there is one Jewish tradition that they have completely abandoned. Jewish Tradition and the Scriptures The first line of many Messianic Jewish doctrinal statements reads like this: "We believe... that the Scriptures are verbally inspired of God and they are without error in the original writings, and they are the supreme and final authority for faith and life." Since the original writings have perished, we must rely on copies of the copies of Scripture. Right? Well, what did the original writings say would happen to themselves and what does Jewish tradition say about the preservation of the Scriptures? Jews Entrusted With Scripture.

When doing a project such as this, there usually is a certain story, special comment, and possibly even a discovery of some sort that stands out from all others. the very first person Little did I know so many years ago that I would hear the words, which would foretell the end result of my spiritual journey! The quote. As the Poet T.S. Elliot said; And the end of all our exploring will be to arrive where we started, and know the place for the first time." They are the most appropriate, powerful and moving words which apply to those of us Jews who searched outside of Judaism to find G-d, only to find out in the end, that Judaism had the answers all the time! If you are Jewish and are about to or have decided to seek G-d outside of Judaism take a moment and meditate on the words of the poet. Be honest with yourself. Ask yourself -why you are seeking elsewhere?
Judaism 101: Moshiach: The Messiah
The messianic Idea in judaism. However, traditional judaism maintainsthat the messianic idea has always been a part of judaism.
http://www.jewfaq.org/moshiach.htm

Extractions: - Principle 12 of Rambam 's 13 Principles of Faith Belief in the eventual coming of the moshiach is a basic and fundamental part of traditional Judaism. It is part of Rambam 's 13 Principles of Faith , the minimum requirements of Jewish belief . In the Shemoneh Esrei prayer, recited three times daily, we pray for all of the elements of the coming of the moshiach: ingathering of the exiles; restoration of the religious courts of justice; an end of wickedness, sin and heresy; reward to the righteous; rebuilding of Jerusalem; restoration of the line of King David; and restoration of Temple service. Modern scholars suggest that the messianic concept was introduced later in the history of Judaism, during the age of the prophets. They note that the messianic concept is not mentioned anywhere in the Torah (the first five books of the Bible).

Extractions: or I read a grossly Procrustean description of some 'normative Judaism' of the 1st century like this one : Any Jew with a Pharisaic background (which would have been anyone who was a contemporary of Jesus as well as all Jews today) would have understood that the term "Christ" was a term used in a physical sense to denote one who was claiming a political position. Apart from the seriously mistaken notion that all of Jesus' contemporaries were of Pharisaic background (which seems to be based on James' uncritical use of the fringe-writer Maccoby!), this rather unexciting description of the messianic hope is so out of touch with biblical scholarship of today as to be worthless.
