Another good reason to reject the Bible and Bible God as legit. You actually believe that the Creator of the Universe required animal sacrifices during the bronze age and then changed his mind after he sacrificed himself on a Roman torture device. Well I guess God MADE the Romans invent crucifixion since it was part of his "plan".
Blood atonement for sin probably made perfect sense to people of that period of time. But in retrospect it is bizarre and makes no sense. Just a waste of animals.
God did not change His mind about the sacrifice of animals---it was a teaching tool and shadow of Jesus who was to come.
No such thing as no blood being required to atone for sins no matter how often you deny it.
So you deny Lev 5. Understood.

That's not what Lev 5 says but we know how you feel about those verses.

Again you quote from a biblical section regarding the eating of blood. The text forbids eating blood because in an animal sacrifice that is designed for atonement, the blood is essential. But that doesn't mean that blood is required, nor that the only function of sacrifices is for sin.

Blood is also sprinkled after some non-sin based sacrifices. In fact, the verse you cite is not discussing sin sacrifices but the thanksgiving ones which celebrate the consecration of the altar.

Yes, and not for sin reasons.

It occurs as often as the word "Jesus." I guess neither existed.

You see, that's where your belief is getting in the way of your understanding. If that is your belief about the talmud then you will be very limited in what you can learn.

No, actualy since about 300 years before Jesus was born. Jesus wasn't a prophet.
When that generation was lead to the promised land, Joshua and Caleb believed what God had said, and looked forward to seeing God's word to Abraham fulfilled. The others who were sent to spy the land were filled with the fear of being sent to their demise and chose not to enter the promised land, and they ended up taking precedence over what Joshua and Caleb had reported. And then spent the next 40 years wandering the desert.

All this is just a bunch of filler nonsense by someone who can't defend his false beliefs.

You don't respect men who have the title of "Rabbi", "Father", and "Teacher", but we are supposed a man with no apparent title.
Could you rephrase that so it is more understandable?
