You play in your “Jewish tradition” and I’ll rely on scripture. We know what Jesus thought about “Jewish tradition”.

We know what Jesus thought about Jewish tradition.
Matthew 5:17-19:
Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them. For truly, I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not an iota, not a dot, will pass from the Law until all is accomplished. Therefore whoever relaxes one of the least of these commandments and teaches others to do the same will be called least vin the kingdom of heaven, but whoever does them and teaches them will be called great in the kingdom of heaven."
What did He think about "Jewish Tradition"?
Matthew 23:1-2
Then Jesus said to the crowds and to His disciples, 'The scribes and the Pharisees vsit on Moses seat, so do and observe whatever they tell you..."
So, are you His disciple? Perhaps you need to be careful when speaking about Jesus' family, the Jews.
Acts 28:17
After three days he called together the local leaders of the Jews, and when they had gathered, he said to them, Brothers, bthough I had done nothing against our people or the customs of our fathers, yet I was delivered as a prisoner from Jerusalem into the hands of the Romans.
Paul, thought very highly of "Jewish Tradition" - enough that as a disciple, by his own declaration, he adhered to what you derisively call "Jewish Tradition."
Jesus was a Jew, not a Swede/German/Englishman/African/Asian.
