--- End quote ---

It's not Arabic. It's Aramaic. That was the language the Jews spoke in those days and the Talmud is recording their discussions.



--- End quote ---
I meant Aramic.

Why didn't they encoureged talking in Hebrew as other sects of Judaism as the Karatie Jews did (in the 10th century) ?

--- End quote ---

Hebrew is a holy language. So many Jews did not want it to become a secular langauge so they were careful to use other languages for regular speech and learning, while Hebrew was used only for prayer and reading from the Torah etc.

This, many felt preserved Hebrew as a sacred tounge, not only to be used lightly.


Kaarite are heretics as we have already explained on many occasions.  :)

What?! you mean I'm older than you!?

Lubab:
I guess so. Don't worry though, I have lots of older people coming to me for advice.  ;)

Did you know that one of the Chabad Rebbe's wrote one of his famous works of mysticism (Derech Mitzvosecha) when he was 15?

The Rebbe's always said: "age doesn't go by the passport".

Well age does mean one thing:  more life experience and a longer brain.

Are you a rabbi?

Asked and answered. See previous questions.

We can't have repeats on the Ask Lubab show. I can't do that to my fans. :D
