Shalom, Zdravo, Hello dear Jewish friends! I have a few questions for you!
1) At YT I saw a few videos, where several rabbis have more radical views on the existence of Israel but the Bolshevik liberals! Presents themselves as Orthodox Jews, they consider Zionism as fascism, and require dismantling the state of Israel?! How is this possible? Is there a difference between the orthodox and traditional Jews, regard to the existence of the very idea of Israel! It is confusing!
2) Also on YT, I saw the service of a Rabbi, on the battlefield after the battle. Around the left hand, He had wrapped a narrow black band or belt. What is the meaning of that symbol?
3) My native language is Serbian, from the group of Slavic languages! There is a huge difference in sounority compared to the Semitic languages! When I listen Hebrew, I am very hard to hear and decipher all the consonants! So, many words i can not properly remember and repeat! I do not want to ask you to teach me Hebrew, just like some Jewish words and terms write in English, so I can remember and repeat them!
For example: church, Christianity, Christian, Judaism, Jew, Muslim, Muslims, salvation, prayer, pilgrimage ...and something of your choice!
I hope that i do not ask too much from you!
Greetings from Belgrade, Serbia
Slobodan
