Yes, there were instances in the Bible where the Israelites were commanded by God to engage in battles with other nations. However, it is important to note that these conflicts were typically against nations that were considered enemies of Israel and posed a threat. The Israelites were not generally instructed to attack other fellow Israelites except in cases of rebellion or disobedience.

The powers of the Ark of the Covenant did not always work for the Israelites because they believed that the Ark itself held magical powers, rather than understand that it symbolized the presence of God. They sometimes relied on the physical object rather than having a genuine faith and obedience towards God, which led to their failure in harnessing its powers. Additionally, the Israelites' disobedience and sinful behavior can be seen as a reason for the ineffectiveness of the Ark's powers.

khatikh (חתיך), which also means hunk.

No - in its original form Hebrew did not have a J sound (as in Jay).

However, in modern Hebrew the ג (Gimmel - third letter of the Hebrew alphabet) is used with an apostrophe to change it from G "as in Give" to J as in "Jay". This is a linguistic invention to allow transliteration from other languages.

The Jewish religion doesn't have holy men, but prayer services are sometimes led by special teachers, called Rabbis. The Hebrew word for Rabbi is Rav (רב).

A rabbi may be male or female (yes there are Orthodox women rabbis) and they are not required for prayer services.

Jews do not recognize the gospel.

Therefore, to Jews, the first five books of the bible are the Torah, which is:

Genesis

Exodus

Leviticus

Numbers

Deuteronomy

Moses in Hebrew is moshe (משה) which which is most likely derived from Egyptian mes meaning "son", but could also possibly mean "deliver" in Hebrew.

Note: The meaning suggested in the Bible, "drew out" from Hebrew משה (mashah) is probably an invented etymology.

If you are asking what the Hebrew word for "Passover" is, it's pesakh (פסח). If you are asking for the meaning of the holiday, it is a celebration of freedom, commemorating the exodus from Egypt.

Jonah 2:10-"And the Lord spoke unto the fish and it vomited Jonah upon the dry land." So basically Jonah got up chucked,or as it states in the bible.

Scientific evidence would tell you that Jonah would have some damage done to his body from the acid inside of the whale's belly(which he bible speaks nothing of).

3 days and nights. Do note however that the use of days and nights in that manner is Hebraically idiomatic. 3 days and nights does not have to mean 72 hours, and can be any part of 3 days and nights.

The Torah doesn`t contain laws, it contains mitzvot. The word mitzvot is best translated as guidelines. The mitzvot that the `halachot` (laws found in the Talmud) are based on, can be found primarily in Deuteronomy and Leviticus.

Nice question ... a lot like "Are you still beating your wife ?" in a way. The thesis of the question is debatable. Obviously, hundreds of thousands of people world wide who observe the kosher laws don't think it's so strict. In my mind right now, there are about 15 different ways I could go in response to this question, all fighting for the head of the line. But this really isn't the place for any of them. I'll just give you a few quick comments on the subject, and hope that either those will do it for you, or that someone else will jump in here and flesh out my response, or both. 1). If you own a bible or have access to a copy, have a look at Deuteronomy, chapter 14. Start at the beginning of the chapter, take it slow, pace yourself, drink lots of water, and see if you can make it all the way to verse 21. This isn't the only place in the bible that deals with the kosher laws, but it's a good one. 2). While you're in the neighborhood, turn back to chapter 12 and have a look at verses 23-25. This is a remarkable passage ... one that I just noticed last week, as I studied it in preparation to render it in the synagogue. Here is a passage where the bible says "Don't eat blood !" four times in three verses. How much more emphatic can the bible be ? And how does anyone who puts any small stock in the bible read this and conclude that actually, it's OK. If you read this and decide that going without blood in your diet is too strict for you, then we don't have a whole lot more to discuss. 3). The section in chapter 14 wraps up by saying "... because you are a holy people ... ". Elsewhere in the bible, during another 'lecture' on the kosher laws, the same reason appears for all of this: " ... in order to be holy ...". What do we do when we read that ? Normally, we skim over it and don't dwell on it, and go on to see what else is coming up. Then, eventually, if the subject ever comes up, we say that we don't actually know the reason for the kosher laws, it must have been for health reasons what with trichynosis and all that, and so we don't have to worry about it in our modern time now that we have refrigerators. We read the reason right there on the page; but it was talking about "holy", and who knows what that's all about anyway, so we skimmed it, and forgot about it, and concluded that we don't know the reason. No, I can't tell you what it means to be holy. But I don't have a pass to discard everything in the bible that I don't understand yet. I don't know you, but I will guess ... because the odds are pretty good ... that there are a lot of little things that you still do, just because that's what your parents taught you to do when you were tiny. You may well have kicked and screamed at the beginning, and yelled that it's too strict and there's no good reason for it. But in the end, you really didn't have that much trouble working it into your way of life. One more quick comment and then I'm done: I have had the privilege of standing around inconspicuously and watching life in small villages in northern China, in nomadic family tents in Outer Mongolia, in voodoo settlements in the mountains of Haiti and the interior of Jamaica, and in the slums of Calcutta and the wilderness of modern Sinai. If you think that the kosher 'diet' is 'strict', then you must fervently hope and pray that you never come anywhere near poverty, famine, or diabetes.

The word "Kosher" Comes from the Hebrew language.

Kosher means right or correct according to Jewish dietary law. In non-Hebrew-speaking countries, it usually refers to food that is kosher, meaning all food but land animals that don't chew their own cud (pig and others), shell-fish, and crustaceans.

Pork, just like countless other meats, aren't kosher because pigs don't meet the requirements of a kosher animal as specified in the book of Deuteronomy chapter 14 verse 8. Pigs have split hooves, but don't chew their cud.

The Bible specifies that only certain fish, birds , and mammals can be eaten. The criteria is complex: Fish must have a certain type of fin and scales, thus excluding fish such as shark, catfish, and shellfish. Birds must not be one of the 24 species listed in the Bible, all of whom are predators, and they must be a bird for which there is a tradition of eating the bird for at least 100 years. Mammals must have split hooves and chew their cud (cows, sheep, goats, deer are examples of kosher animals). Pork, rabbit, rats, and elephants are examples of non-kosher animals. Nor are any type of insect or reptile except for 4 types of locust but there has to be a family tradition of eating these.

In addition, meat and poultry must be slaughtered in a particular fashion, and inspected for disease (using a much stricter standard than the government inspectors). Excess blood, arteries and veins, certain types of fat, and the sciatic nervous system must be removed.

In addition, the food must not have come into contact with non-kosher food. There is a higher level of kashrut where a Jew has to be involved in the preparation of the food at some point.

Kosher wine has even stricter requirements, as does Passover food.

The laws of kashrut don't only cover the types of animals that are allowed but also all aspects of preparation and consumption. Meat and dairy are kept strictly separate.

Islam is the religion which has been from the very start. Many prophets came but later on their followers were lead astray. Then, the prophet Muhammad (PBUH) came and preached the same religion the previous prophets had preached; but this time the followers acted on the commandments of Allah and the prophet. So that's why we now have Islam as the complete religion.

The Akshardham Temple in Delhi, India, was built by the BAPS (Bochasanwasi Akshar Purushottam Swaminarayan Sanstha) organization. The construction of the temple was initiated by Pramukh Swami Maharaj, the spiritual leader of BAPS, and it was officially opened to the public in 2005. The temple complex is a stunning example of traditional Indian architecture and craftsmanship and is dedicated to Bhagwan Swaminarayan and showcases various aspects of Indian culture and spirituality.

The Hebrew word for prayer is Tefillah. Most of the prayers can be found a Siddur (Hebrew prayerbook). However, there is no Hebrew word that means "worship" in the sense that we use it in our culture today.

Furthermore, there is a multitude of ceremonies that encompass Jewish life in terms of life events, holidays, etc. Perhaps there was a specific ceremony you were asking about?

Circumcision is a religious tradition for Jews that goes back thousands of years. No one knows for sure how it started, but it is believed it may be related to difficulties with hygiene in the desert environment of the Middle East. Jewish theologians generally discount the practical explanation in favor of the religious one.

The Jewish bris is a sign of Abraham's covenant with G-d. It is practiced by all branches of Judaism. The reason male circumcision is important to Judaism is because the Torah specifies that uncircumcised Jewish males are cut of from Judaism and cannot participate in a large percentage of Jewish life and ritual.

In terms of when the circumcision occurs, aside from the Torah specifying it must be done at 8 days, modern research has shown that blood clotting performance peaks at 8 days. Additionally, when circumcision is done at 8 days, it is a minor process that heals within 36-48 hours on average. Adult male circumcision is a serious surgery that requires stitches and a fairly long and painful healing process.

Circumcision is the removal of the foreskin of the penis. The foreskin is a flap of skin that normally covers the glans (head) of the penis.

Christians don't have any obligation to their religion to mutilate their genitalia through circumcision. It was decided that accepting Christ as their savior and that the sacrifice of Christ added up to circumcision of the heart.
