Wow....just wow.....I am continuously humbled by The Torah and the depths of it's pure Wisdom.....the Trials of Ordeal....and all the congregation says, " Bring it!!!!!!!"
I had a question on what makes you jewish??? I found out I had ancestors who were converos from the Spain inquision they went to puerto rico which is were all my family is from on my dads side.
What makes one Jewish? I think it has to do with someone being able to prove conclusively that he/she, possesses a lineage that can be traced back to Yehudah? People of Ashkenaz, Sephardic, Yemenites, Ethiopian heritage live in Israel with full citizens rights. Another way to become Jewish is through conversion. This isn't so easily achieved since Jews tend to not proselytize. . If I'm not mistaken, today someone seeking to immigrate (do ali yah) must demonstrate that his/her mother s of Jewish heritage as opposed to the father (as Scripture supports).
