- Much of the source material came from "Jesus Kept Kosher", a video created by eshkolot.ru/ and posted here • Даниэль Боярин. Иисус ... . In it, Daniel Boyarin (a self described Orthodox Jew) reveals the truth that Yeshua (Jesus) defended strict adherence to the Torah, and that it was the Pharisees who cast aside the Torah (in favor of their own man made traditions). Daniel Boyarin is a historian of religion, holds a doctorate from the Jewish Theological Seminary of America, and was appointed Professor of Talmudic Culture at the University of California, Berkeley.
Know this - the primary sin of the Pharisees was not legalism as is emphasized by many modern Christian teachers. No, it was their hypocrisy combined with their elevation of man-made rules over the Word of God.
Read the Word of God...
Isaiah 40:8
The grass withers, the flower fades, but the word of our God will stand forever.
Mathew 5:17-20
17 Do not think that I came to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I did not come to abolish but to fulfill. 18 For truly I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not the smallest letter or stroke shall pass from the Law until all is accomplished. 19 Whoever then annuls one of the least of these commandments, and teaches others to do the same, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever keeps and teaches them, he shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven. 20 For I say to you that unless your righteousness surpasses that of the scribes and Pharisees, you will not enter the kingdom of heaven.
John 1:14
14 And the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us, and we saw His glory, glory as of the only begotten from the Father, full of grace and truth.
Mathew 24:35
Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will not pass away.

The Pharisee's problem was not liberalization but literalization that made them miss the spiritual lesson in the law. They contented themselves with outward performances but were spiritually dead. "For you clean the outside of the cup and the plate, but within they are full of extortion and self-indulgence." (Matthew 23:25)
" And you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of power and coming on the clouds of heaven..." Daniel 7
Jesus is the Word of God (Memra) in the flesh. John 1:1
"It is too light a thing that you should be my servant, to raise up the tribes of Jacob, and to bring back the preserved of Israel; I will make you as a light to the nations that my salvation may reach to the ends of the earth."
" I am the Lord; I have called you in righteousness; I will take you by the hand and keep you; I will give you as a covenant for the people, a light for the nations."
"The Lord has bared His holy arm before the eyes of all nations, and all the ends of the earth shall see the salvation of our God."
"And the nations shall come to your light, and kings to the brightness of your rising." Isaiah 60
Jesus is the light to the nations. ✡
Hold on sir, not everybody ( though many do) interpret the verse that way. Jesus kept the Law. He became angry because the pharisee's elevated man made doctrines, and by doing so, voided God's Law.
Maybe he is referring to the ones who say that jesus abolish kashrut
Christians ❤ Daniel Boyarin.

If a carcass of a rat is touched:
The person will wash himself and wait till the evening to become ritually qualified again. So, the washing of the hands is not going to wash away the state of defilement, so the pharisees might have not be complaining the Essenes (the disciples and Jesus) for not washing their hands, indeed it's most likely they washed their hands, but in a "civil" way, not in the form of the tradition that they (the pharisees) brought up, and even more, we don't know if the water was an issue at the times of Jesus.
At any case, the washing of the hands only it not purifying, it's a key stage, but there are two stages required: Washing, and waiting till the evening. That is what is going to make a person ritually capable again. So, I think that it seems that kashrut here is out of the picture, this part of Mark is not about keeping kosher or not, that's a given, it's obvious, rather this is about eating even when a person has become ritually impure to perform duties in the temple. Because if not, what would that mean if going by the pharisees? That a person should not eat until the evening?
Feel free to comment your thoughts or suggestions to improve this explanation.

He speaks here of pledging one's resources to the Temple (e.g. temporary use of a land parcel) in lieu of dedicating those resources to the support of one's parents. The Pharisees endorse this practice, which Jesus in Mark 7 criticizes them for. (Don't quote me on this rendition...I'm going by memory, but this is the gist of the interpretation I happened across somewhat recently.)
I assume you guys are already in awareness of Rav Ariel Cohen Alloro and Rabbi Yoseph Edery initiative to recover the angel of Esau to the land of Israel, right? Jesus, Yeshua bar Yoseph knew when to be lenient on halacha and when to be harsh, stringent. He was, as a proud son of Yoseph, strong in morality and sexual purity. What a pearl I've found today. Whoever posted this, I greet you, from a descendant of the Anousim (house of Ephraim). I came to this professor the other day but I didn't know the depth of his conferences. And I came following a series of scholars like Adolfo Roitman (I am also born in Argentina).
I see where he is going, and agree in a sense, though I would offer a different direction to get there, if I might be so bold to do so.
Firstly, Paul does not even set aside the Torah, but affirms the true purpose of the Torah. However, he does teach that Gentiles are not bound to engage with the full Torah as are the Jewish people. The reason given for Gentiles to take on the full Torah is inappropriate because it is rooted in a false gospel, but this does not “free” a Jew from observing the full Torah. He makes the point numerous times in the epistle to Galatia, and other places, that observance of the Torah does not bring about salvation, or in other words, observance of the Torah does not repair the world, or in other words, observance of the Torah does not bring about the kingdom of the Messiah. Instead, Paul teaches that observance of the Torah reveals the need of repentance so that when the kingdom of the Messiah comes, and the world is restored, and Israel is saved from its enemies, many will live peaceably in that kingdom.
So, for Paul, Jewish observance of the Torah and circumcision is never a question, which is why he circumcised the Jewish Timothy but not the Gentile Titus. Yet such observance does not flow from a perspective of repairing the world or making the congregation merit the world to come as if the Kingdom of Messiah would not come without such merit. For him, the Torah is chiefly instructive of and highlighting of the motives of a person. For the apostles, including Paul, as well as for Jesus, the gospel is the soon coming Kingdom of Messiah by the work of God, and not by the efforts of humanity, and it was the tradition which taught that this thing would be brought about by the work and effort of humanity that Paul attacked, and likewise, so did Jesus.
Jesus, like the teacher here affirms, understands that it is direct interaction with the Torah, and not through the Halacha, that the people recognize their need of repentance, and true repentance at that. Jesus does not put aside the Torah in any form, but upholds it, and calls his Jewish brethren to return to the Father through it. However, by their traditions, the Pharisees were not permitting people to engage with the Father in the way that was necessary, and thereby, their teachings were consigning more and more people to the judgment of God rather than to his restoration when it comes.
Jesus’ issue with the Pharisees was their emphasis on God’s partnership with man to bring about the world to come; it was not their supposed emphasis on the “Law”. In fact, for Jesus, it was the traditions that the Pharisees instituted in order to make observance of the Torah easier to attain that actually caused them to treat the Torah too lightly.
I agree, amazingly explained
Makes all the more sense when we now live at a time when we must wash our hands because of covid 19
Vs 16 is in fact present in any number of English texts although absent from others. But it is verse 7:19, not treated in this TH-cam section, that one would most appreciate hearing Boyarin. That verse has Jesus rendering all meats clean by his remarks. Such an interpretation of Jesus is Mark's (or his redactor) and may not reflect Jesus' in-situ intentions.
Mark Gruber, I believe the Greek there used a word regularly used to reference Jewish kosher meats rather than all meats, and in that case would indicate that Jesus was controverting Pharisaic tradition that made even kosher food unclean if eaten with unwashed hands, not controverting the biblical injunction against the Israelite people consuming certain animals.
It would have been good to hear Boyarin’s perspective on this.
Yes, Amen!
Yochanan 1:17 Because the matan Torah (giving of the Torah) was graciously bestowed through Moshe [Rabbeinu] [DEVARIM 32:46 SHEMOT 31:18; 34:28], but Chesed and Emes of Hashem came through [Rebbe,] Melech HaMoshiach Yehoshua [Ex 34:6; Ps 25:10; 40:11; 85:11; Yochanan 1:49].
Hold on there, Y'shua is not linked to Chessed, but to Gvurah, he is from the house of Yoseph, biologically. Yoseph is Gvurah, David is Rachamim.
Verse 16 in my bible but very interesting points made.
Then why did the apostles send a letter to Antioch telling their people there not to eat foods offered unto idols? If nothing that enters the body can defile it?
That's a very good question, but that doesn't defile the body.
It is contrary to the will of the father and regarded as sinful to eat what's offered to other gods, not that it'll mar or defile the body/spirit. It should hold no power over the Christian. Rev 2 vs 12-17
If you are talking about the edict of Acts 15, the prohibition was on pagan temple practices. The converts were to learn the rest of the law on the sabbath. (v21)
Does any one know which verses of Deuteronomy and Leviticus he's referencing at 13:15?
sorry 13:10
Leviticus 11. Did he mention Deuteronomy? didn't realize, must check it later.
Jesus IS the Torah
No. The torah points to Jesus.
Mark 7:16 is there in the King James Bible and Greek Textus Receptus. Yeshua never taught against Kashrut for the Jews. Gentiles were never given Kashrut. This was Paul’s doctrine too. However, there is a “way out” for Jews to come out of the yoke of Moshe’s Torah, by rising above the level of earthly existence. If one reckons himself as CRUCIFIED and DEAD to this world, together with Yeshua, and resurrected and ascended with Yeshua into the heavenly realm (on the Tree of Life, or Jacob’s ladder), then he is no longer under the Torah, which only applies to people living on the earthly plane. So James and other Jewish Christians kept the Torah and Kashrut as the “law of liberty” while being free not to keep it, for the sake of others.
How it's that, man? The whole aim of Kashrut is to be away at safe distance from eating meat. Even with kosher meat, the person becomes prone to the yetzerHaRa. The advantage of eating meat which is kosher is that the person is allowed to perform physical labor. A Torah scholar would go full vegetarian but he gets incapable to do phsycal labor as minimal as sweeping the floor with a brush. Kashrut is the critical key to reach high levels of spirituality, and of course meat is not a choice. Non kosher food regardless of not being meat like a pizza which has derivatives of pig and cow rennet, lowers the "frequency" introducing interference, I am trying to make an analogy with sound engineering since I edit audio and produce music. So if you can explain what you mean...
If I understand this man correct. He is saying Jesus did not support eating foods lime pork etc. If that's the case, how would he be able to defend Acts 10: 9 - 16 ?
Peter's dream, it turns out, is not about consuming food. Instead, it is about the fact that gentiles---according to the gospel---will now, via faith in Jesus, be invited to join in sharing the covenant promises once given only to Israel. Gentiles, according to the Jewish tradition of this time, were considered as ritually unclean, because they were without Torah, and without YHWH. This is why Paul rebukes Peter for pulling away from eating with the gentiles when, suddenly, Jews enter the scene, because according to Jesus' gospel, gentiles are now to be considered worthy of invitation into the covenant promises, and therefore also to be considered ritually clean.
is he wearing an earring
Rabbis sometimes wear earrings in reference to Exodus 21:6, to signify they are slaves to God who wish to never be freed.

Isaiah 53:5, he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes, we are healed. For salvation, people just need to follow the way they did it in Acts? They were baptized in the water and of the spirit. Here's why! The gospel is the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. If we are to follow him, we must do the same thing. Death= repentance, Burial = baptism, and resurrection = being filled and rising again from the dead. That's what Acts 2:38 is. We must obey the gospel, 2 Thessalonians 1:8-9, in flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that OBEY NOT THE GOSPEL of our Lord Jesus Christ... Matthew 7:21-23, Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of Heaven; but he that DOETH THE WILL OF MY FATHER which is in Heaven. St John 3:3-5, EXCEPT a man be born of WATER AND OF THE SPIRIT, he cannot enter into the kingdom of GOD. We can't come up with our own gospel. Galatians 1:8-9, But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed. Don't be cursed. One way for all people. Jews, Gentiles, and Samaritan. Our salvation has to match-up with the scriptures and no scriptures on the subject can be taken away. Eternity is TOOO long to be WRONG! st John 5:39, Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me. The gospels show what Christ has done on the cross for us. The book of Acts shows us the beginning of Christ's Church and how to enter the Church, obeying Acts 2:38. The letters were written to the Church to show us how to behave now that we are born again into the Church. It's better to walk alone than to walk with a crowd going in the wrong direction. Are we supposed to follow the teachings of the apostles? Acts 2:42, They continued steadfastly in the apostle's doctrines. Ephesians 2:20, We are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief cornerstone. Don't get Titus 3:5 mixed up with James 2:14-26, about WORKS. One is a WORK of your OWN RIGHTEOUSNESS OR GOOD DEEDS and the other is a WORK OF FAITH, Obedience to God's command. God told Noah to build an ark to be saved. Noah believed and responded by building the ark. Mark 16:16. If you believe in this message, help spread it in the name of Jesus Christ so people can get saved the right way. God bless you!
