Jews going through this stage tend to experience many different emotions, such as stress, anxiety, and even suicide. The process of leaving one’s community, friends, and family is a huge undertaking emotionally. In the journal, Characters in Search of a Script: The Exit Narratives of Formerly…

In a world with countless viewpoints, defining wisdom can pose a challenge. While some wisdom shows truth universally, some wisdom can present itself as a problem of subjectivity. In the book The Chosen by Chaim Potok, the author uses this theme of wisdom to influence the protagonists of the story from the wisdom of two fathers.

During the first decade of Christianity, Christians followed Jewish traditions and went to synagogue with those who had not converted to Christianity. They attended temple daily and celebrated the Sabbath as they always had. Up to about 20 years after Christ’s death Christians had to be converts to Judaism before converting to Christianity.
