Puzzling Terms

[fair]

My son asked me ..

1 - If jewish are sam,s sons
and moslims , cristians and jewish are sons of Adam
so what the differences ... ?

2 - Why some people are anti simatic and some arn't

3 - Are the jewish choiced god people and we arn't

I told him that
1 - Jewishs are not better or less than other people
2 - To be sam's sons must not give them over degree
3 - some people anti sematic because some jewish are provokers
inspite of other jewishs are gentlemen
4 - The god for all not for Jewish only

Am I Right ... ?

Sam's sons? What is this?

The Jewish and Christian bible says that all people came from Adam.

Is this "Sam" a Muslim concept?

[cerulean]

Does Fair mean "Shem" instead of Sam?

I understand. Like cerulean said.

Well, there were 3 sons of Noah (who came many generations after Adam). Thery were Shem, Ham and Yefet. Both Arabs and Jews originated from Shem, according to the Torah, because they were both descendents of Issac, who himself was a descendent of Shem.

I'm fairly well familiar with the Bible, but am no biblical scholar, tha's for sure. If anyone is more familiar with this, please help out.

Fair, thank you for the clarification (btw, I am female).

1 - jews and arabs are closely related historically but bitter enemies for about a century.

2 - that's like asking why are some people racist and hateful. it doesn't have anything to do with the jews provoking. a hateful racist person doesn't need provoking. that's his nature. maybe incitement in his upbringing. maybe jealousy of the jews success in every country they live. who knows.

3 - the way i understand it is that the jews were chosen by god at the sinai mountain to receive the torah and to fill 613 difficult commands of god, and not chosen as superior to other people at all.

i think the superiority issue started when others saw the jews success.

but the jewish religion as far as i understand treats all people as equal not better or worse than the jews, but only the jews are required to keep so many commands of god. instead of 613 the non-jews are only required to keep 11 or 12 i think.

like newsguy said i'm also not the best source for such religious matters.

I am sorry sister Cerulean
for unintended mistake

So what's your point Mr. Fair?

Fine.. Arabs and Jews are relatives, but obviously your Mohammad hasen't respected this "relationship" (I guess that's what was so obvious in what he wrote in the Koran)!
