I'm not sure how this discussion got into cohousing, but ...
because it is sometimes forgotten, it is well to remind ourselves
that Arabs as well as Jews are Semites. Ishmael was the elder son of
Abram, and older brother (by 12 or so years) of Israel.
So the belittling of Arabs is also anti-Semitic. David Weston, Quaker. ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- -----
Dear Robin-- I hope I didn't say something which seemed to indicate anything other thanhow Jewish Jesus really was / is! Please accept my apology if that's the case.The amazing thing is how easily this fact has gotten lost in the minds of somany over the millenia, from just about every faith-perspective. And what's reallyinexcusable is how anti-Semitism has gone on under the guise of "devotion" toJesus. Jesus loved and served, and was pleased to express His faith in the Godof Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and the people of Israel God blessed with the faithful record of His self-revelation.As a group, we look forward to celebrating (at least some) of the Jewish holidaysand remembering the mighty acts of God in history which they honor. I especially like thinking about how Jesus would have celebrated Chanukah as a boy. SH'MA, YISROEL-- ADONAI ELOHENU, ADONAI ECHAD!
