"Judaism" Hmmm What judaism? Even back in jesus days what we call judaism had barely anything to do with what mainstream judaism is today, which is legacy judaism of pharisees essentially, which was the judaism pacticed by the average semi literate peon in judea (the equivalent of modern day israel regarding geography). And that form of judaism was already completely at odds with the judaism practiced by the priest class, the sadducees, which also happened to be the ruling class For sadducees, there was no such thing as talmud (oral tradition/oral torah), it was considered as popular folklore to them. The final compiled version of the talmud came to existence something like 5 centuries later or so... Talmud is the base of religious teachings for rabbinical/mainstream judaism, not torah. They (sadducees) also believed that there were no after life whatsoever. Once you're dead you're dead end of story. Pharisees however, believed in resurrection... See that already? It's only because we call both "judaism" that it renders them comparable. Reality is that you have two distinct sets of beliefs here. More fundamental differences between those two cults than there's between protestantism and catholicism imo, and we both know that there's a world of differences between the two already... And don't start me on essenes who rejected both forms lol But I digress Where I'm getting at, is that today's jews as you probably know, have little if nothing to do with biblical hebrews, especially those originating from eastern europe, for obvious reasons, and that the old covenant is only valid between god and ancient hebrews, certainly not between god and a bunch of converts who came into existence centuries later on... So chances are, what "jews" are using today, as occult system, is probably something they didn't come up with entirely on their own to say the least. It's probably based on the remnants of a much older and foreign system
