This reminds me, what's the deal with Dinah in Judaism? The translations I've read (which are coming out of Christian traditions) don't actually indicate that she was raped, but that's how Christians usually spin it. Is that something we've gotten from Jewish tradition?

Jewcoon posted:Basically it comes from there being the written and the oral Torah. The written Torah is what most people know, but the oral Torah is considered just as important. The oral Torah is like case law for the legislation that is the written Torah. So from don't cook a kid in its mother's milk, you get a whole bunch of things about how you're supposed to respect an animals life, and eating meat (dead animal) at the same time as milk (life giving substance) is disrespectful, and you shouldn't combine them in a meal. Kashrut also has a ton more laws to it regarding what you can and can't eat and how to properly cleanse eating materials. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kashrut A few of my friends observe some Jewish customs along with their Christianity, and I've never really felt any need for them. This really makes sense to me, though, and I thank you for sharing it.
