I would also recommend going on line and searching for sites on basic Jewish topics. One, called myjewishlearning.com is very good, you can just go there and dig in.

I think the first thing a person has to do is recognize that Judaism isn’t foreign to them. Even if it seems foreign and unintelligible that is because there needs to be a period where you adjust your eyes and ears to this way of being.

We have to start wearing our souls on the outside. Because the souls have been hidden away for so long. The Jewish presence has been so snapped, that we became only bones. Bodies walking on the surface of the earth. Now we’re becoming souls. It’s such a great thing to start – to be the reviving spirit of the Jews of Kishinev. (CLICK FOR FULL ANSWER)

Мы должны раскрыть свои души, так чтобы они стали видны снаружи. Потому что эти души были так долго скрыты внутри! Еврейское присутствие было так разъединено и разобщено, что мы превратились в бездушные скелеты, живые трупы, скользящие по поверхности земли. Теперь мы обретаем души. Замечательно начать с этого – стать возрождающимся духом кишиневского еврейства. Если вы живете в Кишиневе, вы слышите эхо голосов.

There is a Gemara (Yevamos) that speaks of a person that converts to Judaism in situ- while still ‘amongst the nations’ having no knowledge of the precepts of the religion, he or she is considered a full Jew. An understanding of this is that one converts, not to G-d, but to the Jewish people, to the community, sharing history and destiny. What you are doing is exactly that, creating a community with a shared destiny seeking connection to the larger Am Yisroel.

В Талмуде говориться, что человек, живущий среди других народов и не имеющих знаний о религии, в случае решения принять Иудаизм – может считать себя евреем. Объяснить это можно тем, что принимают не религию, а осознание того, что становишься частью общины, разделяешь их историю и судьбу.

It is necessary to approach Judaism with blinders off, to see the facts as they are rather than the fantasies pushed by Orthodoxy.

Dr. Theodor Herzl—once declared plainly: “The greatest happiness in life, is to be that which one is.” I couldn’t agree more. And if you are going to be who you are—a Jew—then do it up. Don’t be a “by-default Jew,” a “checkbook Jew,” a “High-Holiday Jew,” a “peripheral Jew” or a “marginal Jew.” Be a “bold, breathless” Jew, be a “wild, wanton” Jew, be an “I’m going to milk this cultural identity thing for everything it’s got” Jew—be a knowledgeable, thirsty, caring, daring, actively involved Jew.

I want to bless all those who are reading this to have the strength and courage to look deeply within and find that spark of Jewishness and not to give up till it is a flaming torch that will lead you to a life of individual meaning and the awesome feeling of being part of an eternal people with a mission and destiny.

There are a few different ways one can start a search. Either from infinite theoretical research, leading into the experience, or infinite experiencing, supplemented by research.


Это сложный вопрос т.к. существует немного путей , которые могли бы вас привести к иудаизму.

К опыту вас могут привести либо постоянные теоретические исследования , либо бесконечная практика, дополненная исследованиями.
