Alright, what was their fucking problem?

This post is sinful

They were part of a smaller jewish kingdom(Judea) dreaming about being as powerful as their more advanced northern bretheren(kingdom of israel).

Are you talking about the mainstream narrative or the history as supported by arecheological evidence?

as for the pigs that makes sense if you think about it ince living in a semi-arid environment keeping pigs is generally a bad idea since they eat things that are edible to humans like nuts and berries, cattle don't so despite having a lower fat content than pork they're better livestock for the environment. You can explain the ban on shellfish since its very easy to get sick eating that stuff.

The milk and meat one is a bit of a mystery to me, but the original verse that comes from says that its haram to eat a calf in its mother's milk.

As for the foreskin and mixed linen stuff I always figured that it was a tribal thing, a random rule to make it easier to identify people who are members of the tribe from people who are not.

I can take any desu, just want to know what their problem was.

What problem? They simply discovered the gold standard of statecraft.

From the day (((Abraham))) left Ur, (((they))) have done things that are simply beyond the comprehension of mere Gentiles such as ourselves

When you're constantly being invaded and/or exiled into other lands, cultural identity becomes critical to your culture's survival. Most of the Hebrew prohibitions are there to set themselves apart from other cultures that surround them or they were forced to integrate with (circumcision being key among them). It's about identity. And, between that and the fact that they wrote and standardized more religious shit than just about everyone else, but kept it amorphous enough to adapt as needed, it fucking worked. There aren't a whole lot of other cultures that survived as well intact from antiquity.

This nigga knows what's up. Most of the Tanakh is literally Judeans making shit up. It would be like modern Estonians or something writing books about being the most powerful race in the world.

If Israel is so great why did it get BTFO by the Assyrians?

That doesn't make sense when you consider literally everyone else in the region was eating both pork and shellfish

If Judea wasn't shit why did they get conquered by Babylon on the first try?

Probably no religious leader had their kids die as a result.

It initially probably started that way, "Zillah died eating pork, so we ain't doin that no more!" - but in the end, it became a matter of cultural identity, like says, along with a whole lotta other similar identity based edicts.

You have a lot of chutzpah to say that. Still, they resisted Assyrians very well and fell 200 years after Pissrael. Not to mention that Jews take their name from Judah. They are the winners really

Crashing polytheism with no survivors.

And their called their country Israel which means they're still LARPing about their northern neighbors. Imagine being this butthurt and envious for 2500 years nonstop.

They got BTFO by Assyrians, Romans, Hitler. They're all gone but Jews are still around.

everybody got BTFO by the assyrians

and yet where are they today?

Just like the Gypsies.

They are still around, in a less powerful position than Jews though.

Cause they sinned againt god.

Maybe they were just too, you know, poor for anyone to bother conquering them?

Gays because its gay
Women to keep them in line
Nonjewish things to keep people from unjewing themselves
Pigs because that bacon too good for peasants
Foreskins because its a prank bruh
