“But who does Trump know that is Jewish?”
His grandchildren, son-in-law, and Jewish convert daughter. Many friends throughout his life are Jewish. Also his father’s top attorney, who also represented him, IIRC.
From a Hewish friend I used to know when I was a much younger man, he told me that in traditional Jewish faith, that unless the mother is herself Jewish the children are not considered Jewish.
If the father is not Jewish but the mother is, then the children are considered Jewish.
Have no clue if what he told me was legit. But I do remember that discussion very clearly. Probably because I found it quite odd.
Years later I learned that he not only became a Christian. but that he also became a preacher.
So, according to that interpretation, the rest is unclear to me. But the son-in-law is beyond dispute, Jewish by those qualification my Jewish friend laid out to me.
I personally take all of these interpretations people conclude, based upon the Bible or the Torah, with a degree of skepticism. Some I personally discount right off the bat. Others, such as this one, give me cause for pause. This one gave me all the more reason to further pause when I heard the RFK Jr. story. I do not claim to be extremely knowledgeable about the Bible. However, I found this to be rather compelling, and for that reason alone I decided to share.
