I didn&#39;t know there was such a struggle to define the Jewishness of offspring and lineage. I understand the need to preserve anyones culture and heritage. However, I also wonder is there this fear among Jewish believers in Christ, or only in non believing Jews? And if there is this fear amongst believing Jews, why?gactalkhttp://www.atthetableoffellowship.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31715835.post-7500197718079076182009-06-03T18:13:09.057-07:002009-06-03T18:13:09.057-07:00Very interesting. I didn&#39;t know there was such a history over determining the Jewishness of offspring within Jewish-Gentile intermarriage before.<br />I am glad however, that Jesus is &#39;the bridge&#39; that joins us together, and seems to solve the problem in the end.<br />Although I do respect the need to keep any nation alive, there certainly seems to be a problem to maintain a pure Jewish lineage. I have a question. Is the need to keep this lineage as pure as possible based on the need to keep the cohanim line pure for the end times? I had been taught early on that there would be a priesthood that would be of purely Jewish lineage that would be used of God in the end times. Is what I was taught accurate? Is there another reason for the concern over intermarriage?At the Table of Fellowshiphttp://www.atthetableoffellowship.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.com
