Can you elaborate on "the moral ideas taught by Hillel an Jesus"...?....
If you were raised Christian, did you feel surprise/dissonance at how different Judaism was?---if so, how did you deal with it?
My understanding may be incorrect, but in a conversation with a Jewish person, I understood that after death, the souls go to a "place"/home explained to me as a womb/protected resting place, place of sleep until Judgement..?.....what is your opinion? (In Islam such a place is called Barzakh(= barrier, separation))
Could you explain the concept of Shekhina (It is used in the Quran and is translated as spirit/state of tranquility/peace, but I understand it is more complex concept in Judaism ?)
