Man was created as one person … for peace among humanity; so that one will not say to another, "My ancestry is greater than your ancestry."
(Mishnah, Sanhedrin 4:5)

A human mints coins from one stamp and they are all the same; but the king of kings, the Blessed Holy One, minted every human being from the stamp of Adam, the first man, and not one of them is the same as another. Therefore must each individual say, "The world was created for my sake."

Man was first created as one person (Adam) to teach you that anyone who destroys a life is considered by Scripture to have destroyed an entire world; and anyone who saves a life, to have saved an entire world.

#ChodeshTov
Very interesting article (in #hebrew) that discusses the argument between Beit Hillel and Beit Shammai regarding when #roshhashanah for the trees is.
It discusses opposing 'weltanschauung' of the two schools, and uses it to explain numerous other arguments between them in the #mishnah. #TuBeShvat

Another example - #Shavuot Across #Brooklyn
In the Prospect Heights/Park Slope area: Brooklyn’s minyanim, synagogues, and organizations come together for Shavuot Across Brooklyn, an all-night teaching and learning celebration commemorating the giving of the Ten Commandments.

This is an important and thoughtful discussion. To add a layer to it - note that the early quotes of Jesus himself in the #Gospels are different than how they're understood in the rest of the #NewTestament and #ChurchFathers.
Compare these "Pharisee" teachings (mainstream Rabbinic Judaism in the #Mishnah, #Midrash, and #Talmud) with Jesus's ideas - many are the same.
#Jesus may have been closer to Pharisee than to other groups of Jews at the time.

I hope people share this: Here we see Conservative, Reform and Orthodox #Jews studying #Torah and #mussar together in #Brookline, Massachusetts.
We should encourage our local Jewish community leaders to do the same - Torah, #Mishnah, Talmud, #Maimonides, Mussar, are our common inheritance. With good will any community can create opportunities for cooperation, spirituality, Talmud Torah, and communal strength.

@JewishConversations I'm new here so I don't know. I suggest posting with hashtag #mishnah #talmud and seeing who responds.
The structure of the Talmud was literally designed for conversations across lands and generations.
