please tell us your name where you're coming from okay thank you very much for taking my cards Brian from Florida sure um my question has to do with Romans chapter 11 about the engrafted branches it seems that Paul teaches that the moment a non-jew believes in the Messiah and the things he's supposed to do um I'm not sure if he's teaching that they become Israel or that they share a route with Israel my question is can the rabbi explain uh what Paul is teaching and what actually is going to happen when the Messiah comes do
non-jews remain non-jews are they gonna be elevated or what's going to happen in fact the kamiach is about the salvation of the non-jews people think that we don't proselytize we do we just do it by being a light to the Nations but Paul's view of this is different than Tanakh in the Messianic age the whole world will know the MS now there are people who are persistent hopefully be very few who are enemies of God who will be persistent in that and they'll be enemies of God will be destroyed we hope that people everyone will
do truva of course that's what we want in the Messianic age Jewish people who don't know the Jewish are going to join their people and they're going to be nilva they're going to connect to the people because they really belong to the Jewish Nation they're strangers that's what the word gear means so you have verses like Isaiah 14 verse 1 about this tremendous conversion to Judaism and that's what we're seeing now today go to a synagogue and ask politely after a few visits I want to convert and see how fast it goes and see what
the how long the waiting list at the RCA is can't get in it's packed it's so packed we can't get in can't almost all of them are former Christians King getting it's very hard to get into a program this does not happen in history maybe in the days of in the first century is a little bit of it for sure in the days of Ezra there was quite a bit of it but not like this nothing remotely resembling this okay so what's happening when someone converts to Judaism is they're really joining their Nation they really
were Jews and it's an injustice that they should be among the nations of the world and they recognize it in the Messianic age which we are I believe now and they therefore are correcting something that was incorrect why 500 years ago the great great grandma her great-grandmother became a Christian because she was persecuted she didn't want to get killed she wanted to live in no so she married a Christian and then identified that way didn't tell their children that they're Christians why I don't let the it's not be a genius to figure that out so
you have all these descendants of Jews who don't know they're Jewish and they're banging the doors that we want to convert okay so that is very much the Messianic age Paul lahavdo is doing something completely different and Paul is saying that when Gentiles um become Christians he doesn't use that word but we're going to use it Paul sets himself apart as being a a messenger for the Gentiles First Timothy 2 7 it's really quite a few places he is saying to them that they are then grafted in to the tree good afternoon and they become
a part of it and that is their chosenness that they're literally they are the Blessed ones of the nation of Israel and that's Paul's Chief argument in the book of Galatians so if we can get rid of Galatians 1 and 2 we don't need that because that's Paul just telling us why he's the best person in the world and why he knows everything and everyone else is wrong let's just set aside Galatians four five and six together that's about it's him haranguing about what a bad idea is to keep the mitzvoted it's it's very important
it's very easy book to read in fact the Vol Paul's letters is the easiest book to understand book relationship but Galatians 3 is the point Galatians 3 is that in the body of Christ that means if you're a Christian there is no Jew or Gentile all one now whereas Paul is saying that affirming that very clearly Paul is much more um much more aggressive in the book of Galatians because he's writing to people who he knew and he's angry at them very angry at them because they were adopting the ways of other Christians who had
different view in fact Galatians 3 he really excoriates them who Bewitched you you foolish Galatians he wouldn't talk that way in Romans because he's writing to people that he has not yet met he will but he didn't meet him yet so what Paul is saying is that by becoming a Christian you are be you are becoming the real nation of Israel now he warns them that be careful just as the natural branches which are the Jews that means they're born into this and they were broken away how much more so could you like don't become
full of yourself because you're only grafted in you're not the natural breacher so that's the context and then Paul does the unimaginable in verse 26 where he completely misquotes Isaiah 59 verse 20 where it says that the Redeemer is going to come to those who do chewable repent and Jacob but Paul already finished telling us no one's initiative could save them the man is sinful there's Romans 3 Romans 6 Romans everything man is gone man is sinful and therefore the Messiah was going to transform the hearts of Jacob he completely changes Isaiah 59 verse 20.
in Romans 11 26. so but Paul is doing the same thing but in a more elongated way and that is there is a body of Christ and the body of Christ are those who believe in Jesus Jew or Gentile and all are one now Paul is not advancing anywhere that there is no distinction between a Jew and non-jew after all Jews are descended of Abraham Isaac and Jacob he's not disputing that and just as he's not disputing if there is a distinction between men and women in fact in that same passage at the end of
Galatians 3 he says in the body of Christ there's no man or woman well there's a difference in men and women but what he's saying is spiritually there's no difference and that's what Paul is saying Paul is saying that you so I'm going to use different words here paraphrases to make it real easy Paul is saying that when you become a Christian you then are the descendants of Sarah literally and that's Galatians 4 you really are a Jew meaning you are heir to the promises and in fact the Jews who don't believe in Jesus are
in fact of Hagar that's the whole Insanity of Galatians 4. those of you who know the New Testament will appreciate what I'm saying now people who really know the Christian Bible will probably repent right now because you know what I'm saying is accurate so this it's not tricky but I have to just make this very simple what Paul is saying Paul is saying that in Christ this is very pulling to even use that word if Christ dwells in you that's completely Pauline Christ Jesus it's if you're in Christ then you are the Jew so that's
the message of Paul Romans is the most important book that Paul wrote when Isaiah was important it's the most horrible book because it's most influential and Paul is acts different in the Book of Romans than he does in Galatians because in Romans he is addressing people he hasn't met yet he's sort of auditioning in Galatians he very much met the churches in galatia this whole argument is that what what the heck happened to you I was there I made these churches what'd you do so he's a different it's Paul Paul all Paul Romans is more
more foot pole it's more systematic Paul is very temperamental very he sometimes can go just ballistic and just bounce off well sometimes he can just lose his topic and move on to another so that's what's happening the Paul is saying that in the body of Christ there's those of you who know Toro so there's nothing like this in tanash and that's why Christianity is a false religion not because this or that is because it's not consistent with the Torah you understand there's nothing like this in Tanakh the Christ is the is the Divine being that's
who the Christ is it's a Divine being that dwells in you it's real life is straight and this where the Eucharist comes in the Eucharist literally that the Divine being dwells in you if you are grafted and as I said Paul must quotes here in Romans 9 he misquotes Hosea completely Hosea tells us those are not my people become my people chapter two he's talking about the ten Northern tribes he's not talking Paul musk quotes that so that's what Paul is doing Paul so this is not about salvation in our view so in our view
mankind will be saved doesn't mean every person please God every person will repent right so the non that's why we don't why don't we try to convert non-jews to Judaism because they don't need to there's no imperative there's a person does not need to become a Jew to be saved right that's what why try to convert people you're just adding more reasons why a person can violate the mitzvot a person who is who is faithful who's among the um they have life will Hashem forever will not become a Jew so why should we convert them
people who convert do it because they're part of the nation and they feel that calling so very important I want to make this very clear because I know people will misunderstand this from Tanakh view from the view of God so mankind has an opportunity to be saved by turn to Hashem the Jews must repent and that triggers non-jews by the way is it an accident that like everybody is spun out about the Jews I think that's what created this mutation Hollywood of this so I don't have a television but you can see in all culture
the Jews in Israel it's all over the movies like everyone you know what we are one quarter one percent of the world's population they don't have movies coming out about Chinese I don't think so I'm not an expert on this but I don't think so but Jewish characters is like everywhere why we're nothing we're nothing even the United States what are we two and a half percent of the United States that's all it's obvious that everybody's all take us by the Jews they either love us or hate us almost no one has no opinion about
Jews and people say I don't have a preconceived notion about just a lying they're not lying because they're bad most of them just want to be polite such we all know this is true if I ask you what do you think of Koreans you go I don't know whatever you think of Chinese people I don't really know you don't have an opinion Chinese that's the most successful rate on the planet one out of three people who shares this planet with us is Chinese and people don't have strong views about Chinese they seem nice people they
whatever Japanese that's a big country huge country so that's what the Jew is the Jew inspires the World by being a light to the world and in fact Kings will go by your light Isaiah 60. that's the key so in Paul's view if you become a Christian I'm gonna this is not Paul's words but I'm going to use this when you become a Christian in Paul's view you become a Jew conversely if you reject Christianity you're not a Jew anymore you're a Descent of Hagar that's what's really going on your fellow that's way incompatible with
Tanakh but that's really I'm refining it for you so it's all in Christ Jesus that's why the term Christ Jesus I don't know how many times that phrase appears in the Christian Bible I'm making this up but I'm I'm not off I think Christ Jesus appears maybe 85 times that that formula it's only Paul says that that's Pauline that means if Christ dwells in you that's exclusively Pauline then you are a Jew in Paul's view in heir to the original and Superior Covenant that God made with Abraham based on faith that's how Galatians 3 opens
and Paul not a horrible person places in tension the Covenant God made with Abraham against the Covenant that God made with the Jews at Mount Sinai and lies through his teeth in Galatians 3 that the law was given through angels Allah is nothing he loves if you're a Christian and what I'm saying to you not please look it up and ask yourself why do I why would I follow a book that makes up stuff and Paul's argument is mind-blowing he says that given that the Covenant God made with Abraham was 438 for the Covenant that
God made with Moses well the early Covenant has to be superior if you read you know earlier I said to you if you read Deuteronomy chapter 4 you probably will repent if you read Galatians chapter 3 and you know a little Torah you have to know Torah if you don't know don't bother if you know Tori read Galatians 3 you'll be very upset by him everything I just told you that's where it is it's all apostasy it's all Rebellion against that's why we reject Christianity not because we hate Christians God but I want them all
to do trivial other just the opposite care about them the only way I want to just talk to the Christians the only way you'll ever get yourself out of this this endless Rabbit Hole the only way is to test these claims against I say it to you the Christian if you don't do that you're not going to leave the church you're not it's a highly developed religion and you'll just believe it it the only danger for the churches if you actually look this up you will leave the church you'll leave skid marks and that's what's
going to happen at the end of the days all the nations will come to know whether it's doesn't mean they'll all be Jews but they will cleave to the Jew and say let us go with you because we heard that the kushberg was with you let us pray that the words of Zechariah 8 23 everfilled quickly in our time Shalom if you enjoy these programs please like And subscribe oh [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Music] God
