"One who attempts to cover their sins will not succeed, but one who confesses and LETS GO of their sinful ways, is whom God will have mercy on" Proverbs 28 verse 13.

[@Yehonatan613]

"And even now, says 'ה, return/repent to Me with your entire heart: with fasting, with crying, with lamenting, rend your hearts and not your garments, and repent to 'ה your God, because compassionate and merciful is He, slow to anger, abounding in kindness, and renounces in acting in judgement" Joel 2 verses 12&13.

Being a Jew suffering under 613 impossible “Laws” is not a piece of cake! Since Hashem approved of Noahidism, if I were a Jew I’d teshuvah to God’s Original Chosen People, the Gentiles, and become a Noahide (God chose them before he chose the Jews, and you only have to follow 7 laws, not 613!). 😃👍

A Jew is traditionally defined by Jewish law either as someone born to a Jewish mother or who has undergone an authentic conversion to Judaism according to halacha (Jewish law). Once a Jew, the person is subject to the 613 commandments given to Israel at Mount Sinai. This status and obligation are unchangeable. A Noahide, or a person who is not Jewish, is expected to adhere to the seven Noahide laws, the universal moral code according to Jewish tradition. While a non-Jew may choose to take on the additional responsibility of the 613 commandments by converting to Judaism, a Jew cannot relinquish their commitment to the 613 commandments for the seven Noahide laws instead. Not all of the 613 commandments apply to everyone. Some are specific to women, men, High Priests etc. Others have to do with marriage, prohibited relationships, business, agriculture, kosher animals/insects etc. Non-Jews are not required to convert to Judaism. They can embrace their non-Jewish identity and follow the seven Noahide laws.

@@Raizel613 - If “this status and obligation is unchangeable” and “A Jew cannot relinquish their commitment to the 613 commandments for the seven Noahide Laws instead”, then Judaism is a cult that denies people their free will. What would the punishment be for A Jew who broke free of the 613 laws for a simpler life as a Noahide? Stoning?

@@mattjohnson9753 If a Jew doesn't follow the 613 commandments and chooses to live as a Noahide, it can affect their spiritual standing and have consequences for the soul after death. Punishment after death can be a year in Gehinom (a place for purification, similar to the concept of Purgatory) or reincarnation (gilgulim)

Rabbi said I blasphemed. I don’t see any blasphemy in my comments, but now I’m worried that some Jew or Rabbi (maybe To is Singer) will kill me pursuant to Mitzvot #3: Not to blaspheme (Ex. 22:27; in Christian texts, Ex. 22:28), the penalty for which is death (Lev. 24:16) (negative).
