Re: Prophets in Judaism

there is a tradition that if a prophet's father's name is mentioned that means the father is also a prophet (I made in green the people who i know are prophets from the talmud) thus shouldn't adam, seth, Enos, ..., Amram also be prophets in Judaism? [list removed] --Java7837 14:45, 8 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I believe the tradition refers to prophets who are known by their fathers name, like "Isaiah ben Amoz." --Eliyak T·C 05:12, 9 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

About Job

Fist the man is not prophet according to Judaism and that eve if the story true. Prophet are people that say prophecy or labelled as such by the bible. You wont find any Jewish book say prophet Job. Now some Jews believe the story of Job is true but many believe it is allegory.I myself are former religious Jew and in the Yeshiva i was told the story is allegory.

As for the Talmud say I would like to know where. What book,page and line.

Most important don't creat misconception about prophet in Judaism. Islam consider any figure as prophet even people who have no connection to prophecy like Adam,King David,King Salomon etc. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Oren.tal (talk • contribs) 22:25, 11 November 2007 (UTC) [reply]

Job is not consider as prophet in judaism and so is Abrham.Oren.tal 11:56, 12 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Idiot I am former religious Jew

The fact is that I am still Jew but Atheist.If you were Ortodox Jew then you would know that Jew stay Jew even if left the religion. It is enough that his mother Jewish.

The fact that you mention Hindu make me to think that you are Muslim because Muslim have special hate to Hindu.We Jews don't have it.

CfD Hebrew_Bible_saints

Have you seen this Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2007_November_12#Category:Hebrew_Bible_saints ? I think the category needs at least info on who selects these figures as saints. Can you advise how the group was chosen? Thanks, Johnbod 14:50, 12 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Carrasco

The article on Juan Carrasco was created on 19 March 2007 by RobotG. The material that you placed on 24 October 2007 under the title Carrasco duplicated the material at Juan Carrasco. Please check for existing articles before creating new ones. Carrasco is now a disambiguation page. --Bejnar (talk) 23:45, 16 November 2007 (UTC) [reply]

Quote

Hi Java,

The quote is "Some (Muslim) commentators claim that this was a belief among the Jews of Medina, but there is no solid evidence to support this". It doesn't say "ever", it only says the Jews of Medina. Cheers, --Aminz (talk) 01:14, 21 November 2007 (UTC) [reply]

List of Clergy Converts

Just wanted to thank you for working on that list. I've been looking for information about Pastors who become Jews and Rabbis who become Christians for years now. Please don't stop until you can't find any more! Tim (talk) 14:07, 27 November 2007 (UTC) [reply]

task forces

Hi Java7837 -- I was directed from my User talk:Lquilter to write here about how to start a task force; is that right? My own sense is rather vague, but in general I would start by (a) writing on the WikiProject's talk page (e.g., Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Islam); then (b) if no objection, adding a section in to the "task force" section of the WikiProject. The section (IMO) should be a short description with a link to a subpage (e.g., Wikipedia:WikiProject Islam/TaskForce Quranic Criticism. Any relevant materials can be transcluded back and forth -- this is easy to do; simply include the full Wikipedia page name in {{curly brackets}} on the page. Like, for instance, if you wanted to include the specific task force page on a more general task forces page, you would go to the general task forces page (Wikipedia:WikiProject Islam/Task Forces) and on that page include the transclusion link for the Quranic Criticism task force, e.g., {{Wikipedia:WikiProject Islam/TaskForce Quranic Criticism}}. Note -- The project has probably set up its own structures and subpages, so my pagenames & are links are just for examples; you should obviously use their preexisting names & formats. Good luck. --Lquilter 21:56, 1 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion of Sarah in rabbinic literature

A tag has been placed on Sarah in rabbinic literature requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.

If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must include on the external site the statement "I, (name), am the author of this article, (article name), and I release its content under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 and later." You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the article (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. — Yavoh 20:14, 3 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for letting me know, and I apologize for not checking the article carefully enough. I have contacted the administrator who deleted the article, and we'll see how things play out. — Yavoh 20:34, 3 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I was using a semiautomated anti-vandalism tool, and apparently I hit the wrong button. Sorry. If there's anything I can do to help, let me know. Get back to work. ;-) Chris the speller (talk) 05:09, 5 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Statusbot

Hi. Thanks for adding the status bot box to my user page. What I'm wondering is why it always says I'm somewhere. Isn't it supposed to say online? ╦ﺇ₥₥€Ԋ(^talk/_contribs) 04:19, 9 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks!

Thanks for that Chanuka gift! I'm glad that you liked my edits. I've tried to add some relevant material to the Mosaic authorship page but I'm only aware of the Jewish sources. User:Alastair Haines has said he might have some more relevant sources so hopefully we can put together a strong case for our side. Happy HannukahWolf2191 (talk) 23:34, 9 December 2007 (UTC) [reply]
