@sabbahillel both Ba'al Zevuv and Ashtarot are mentioned later in the Tanach as deities of the Plishtim. Did their worship end prior to Yirmiyahu as well? (more) |

@DonielF generally those that refer to the Churban period, usually starting or ending with an idea that goes something like "and this caused the destruction". There are some better known ones like Kamtza and Bar Kamtza, Tur Malka, Neron Caesar, Titus and the fly, and others like Shulya d'nagrei. And ... (more) |

Prophetic styles in Melachim? If Yirmiyahu wrote Sefer Melachim (Bava Batra 15a), and "two prophets do not prophesy employing one and the same style of expression" (Sanhedrin 89a), does that mean that the prophecies of prophets such as Eliyahu and Achiyah Hashiloni, as they are written in Melachim, are in Yirmiyahu's prophetic st...

@sabbahillel I just remembered that Dagon is central to the Ark arc (pun intended) in Shmuel, so he wasn't just from Shimshon's time. (more) |

@DonielF I haven't been around so much these last couple of weeks, but when I left it seemed to me that people were still debating what and when and how to import (and that still appears to be the case, though I may be wrong). If I'm interested in bringing up a subject here and now, how should I go a... (more) |

@sabbahillel that thought had occurred to me today. Do you have a source for this? (more) |

Question | — |
Asking questions that have answers on MY? Out of interest of helping move Judaism Codidact forward, if I have a question and I see it already has answers in MY, should I still ask it here (bearing in mind that, a. from what I've heard, there are some new people around here. b. new interest may spark new answers)?

Question | — |
Why isn't Dagon mentioned in Yirmyahu's prophecy against the Plishtim? The final chapters of Yirmiyahu are dedicated to Yirmiyahu foreseeing the fall of several nations in and around the Land of Israel, nations such as Egypt, Kedar, Babylon, Edom, Moav and Ammon. For Egypt, Babylon, Moav and Ammon, in their fall is included the failure of their national deities: > "... (more) |

@AA I think that's because on MY it's only open for a short time every year. It's like opening up a dam. I think that at first, there may be a flood, but that things will calm down eventually and we'll achieve a good balance of questions. At the very least, we can have a trial period. @Dani if things...

@Dani as long as it's kept in its own category, I think we'll be alright. (more) |

A: Categories - Divrei Torah, Purim Torah I think Purim Torah should be open all time. As I previously wrote when we planned the build of the site: It's a method of developing Jewish thought and creativity while learning. As a more light-hearted feature, I think it would also make the site feel more welcoming. In the end, the goal is to furt... (more) |

Was there a Soreg in Bayit Rishon? I understand there was a little fence in Bayit Sheni called "HaSoreg"/"The Grille" which was meant to warn away gentiles and tme'im from entering the Chayil part of Har Habayit (according to the mishna in Kelim 1:8 and commentaries such as the Bartenura who mentions Shaar Nikanor which was only in Ba...

Is there a list of the different types of deaths? The Gemara in Brachot says: It was also taught in a baraita: Nine hundred and three types of death were created in the world, as it is stated: “Issues [totzaot] of death,” and that, 903, is the numerical value [gimatriya] of totzaot. The Gemara explains that the most difficult of all these typ... (more) |

Nowadays, whom is Birkat Haminim directed at? Today I saw this question: History of Birkas haMinim, which got me thinking: Nowadays, that we don't have Tzdokim or little Judaic Temple-cults like the Essenes, whom is the Birkat Haminim directed at? Just Christians? Or other religions? If the latter, then: all other religions or just some of them?... (more) |
