Stephan Khinoy — Thank you. I am not Jewish, as you might guess, but in recent years I have been absolutely stunned (knocked off balance in an enlightening way) (and I hope, I have begun to be importantly changed) by the Jewish worldview, teaching, and profound spiritual realities as found in Torah, Tanakh, and especially the books by Abraham Joshua Heschel. Of course this self-journey has also included some radical reassessments of the person called Jesus, the Jewish prophet and messianic figure written about in the Gospels and Letters. My feeble studies of the great truths and people and stories of Judaism have radically changed my understanding of the stories and people and truths that I grew up with under the banner of the religion of Christianity. Thus, I am more grateful than you could realize for your comment about my comment. Thank you from the bottom of my little seeking heart and shalom to you today, Stephan.
