That's the Shema, and yes I can. I don't understand where you're going with this, or what it has to do with anything...?
It's the Sh'ma didn't your Rabbi teach you to transliterate a shiva with an apostrophe? Unless you learned Hebrew with an Ashkenazi accent I know they pronounce some things differently than an Israeli accent so I am sure the spelling would differ, Just curious!

I understand both ways are correct just curious what type of Hebrew you know, or what accent at least.

I'm aware of a lot of different ways to say it, I just say it as "Shema". I can't help it. I'm Scottish, we talk weird :p

Oh no I didn't mean that was wrong, I know that is correct also. So do you have an ashkenazi accent, Israeli, sephardi? I know some Israeli's who speak Biblical Hebrew and modern Hebrew in everyday speech so I just wasn't sure which Hebrew you speak?

Well, I'm not a blood Jew, but if I'm not mistaken, Ashkenazi is European Jews, correct?

Yes most European Jews do speak Hebrew with an ashkenazi accent and are ashkenazi. But it really depends on your rabbi or Hebrew teacher rather than your race because he will be the one teaching you how to pronounce words. A lot of American Jews learn Israeli Hebrew from what I've been learning about Hebrew speakers. But I am sure it differs by who is teaching your Hebrew.

Oh, then yes, my Rabbi is an Ashkenazic Jew. He's from Germany.

No, but we're cool with each other's differences :) After all, don't we all have the same father? Didn't one G-d create us all (Mal. 2:10)? :)
Yes I know, that's cool you can fellowship with him and be a light for the Messiah.

But that does explain a lot of things, as to why you don't believe in the divine Messiah. But that's fine I'm sure you have prayed about it before and will continue to ask God to show you the truth about Him - as we all should.

Do you study the Talmud with your rabbi?

That's actually another reason I'm here :) I think we can all learn from each other regardless of our beliefs.

No, we're tackling Torah first before hitting Talmud. Both of us decided to wait to hit the Talmud until I've officially converted.

Okay cool. I got a website for you if you want to check it out, this guy who chats on CC from Israel has a website all about Yeshua. He's been to Yeshiva and all that. He has ultra-Orthodox background as well it's really cool chatting with him..Here if you want to check it out:
http://www.israelimission.org/

But yeah, I think that's great what you're doing studying into other beliefs and becoming more open minded to people. I respect that a lot, God bless you and help you on your journey for the truth.

followed the link... the marijuana anthem. Its fine in their perspective I guess they figure it does no harm but I wonder about the teens listening to the song about validation of illegal substance. Go ahead smoke one down but while you are it DUUUUDE open your eyes. (his eyes drooped the whole song) Perhaps he truly should open his eyes and see what marijuana is doing to him. Just my opinion... not that i wanna buck the agreeing with Lilrush trend I seem to be in. :0)
