In Judaism, there are 613 biblical commandments, and the Talmud says that the chief commandment of all is study.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I was a Jewish rabbinical student for 12 years, and studied the Bible all the time.
If you study the Talmud you please God even more than you do by praying or fasting.
Judaism is an intellectually based religion, and the single most important theme is that of study.
Deeply consider that it is your duty and interest to read the Holy Scriptures.
Judaism is in all my books.
Far be it for the public schools to teach this, but the U.S.A. was founded on basic Judeo-Christian principles. Don't believe me - take a trip to Washington D.C. and tour the Supreme Court building. There you will see a sculpted copy of the Ten Commandments on the wall.
The Ten Commandments are the divinely revealed law.
I ask every man and woman occupying a place of responsibility whose duty it is to teach the gospel of Jesus Christ to live it and keep the commandments of God, so that their example will teach it.
The work of man is to respond to the Covenant by obeying the commandments of the Torah, those commandments that can be obeyed here and now.
I know for certain of only one commandment, one obligation, that God imposes upon us, and that is to be compassionate toward other human beings.
