do jews believe in the absurd doctrine of original sin?

Answer 1

No. The whole thing was Paul's idea; Paul tried to rewrite and modify the OT as well as the gospels of the NT.

Original sin is a Christian belief based on Paul's statement, "Therefore just as through one man sin entered into the world, and death through sin, and so death spread to all men, because all sinned" (Romans 5:12). The doctrine was fully developed by Augustine of Hippo in the 4th century.

According to this doctrine, hereditary sinfulness is inescapably transmitted to human beings by their parents, starting with Adam and Eve. It is alleged that only acceptance of Jesus as savior from sin can redeem a person from sin. All those who do not accept Jesus as their savior from sin are condemned to eternal suffering in hell. According to Judaism, God's loving-kindness depends on right conduct, and it extends to all humanity.

And Jews do not, by the way, believe in a place of eternal suffering. Hell is also an idea of Paul's, based on the Greek concept of Hades (which was based on volcanoes from the underworld, where the dead are buried).

Answer 2

The idea of original sin is usually taught from Psalm 51:5. "Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me."
David said he was born into a sinful world from sinful parents. It says nothing about inheriting sin.

Christians don't believe in original sin for the same reason that Jews don't; the Bible doesn't teach it.
Ezekiel 18:20 The soul that sinneth, it shall die. The son shall not bear the iniquity of the father, neither shall the father bear the iniquity of the son: the righteousness of the righteous shall be upon him, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon him.

No matter what Augustine said, Paul didn't say that everybody sinned when Adam sinned; he said that sin entered the world through Adam, and all who follow Adam's example follow him into sin. If this taught "universal sin," then wouldn't his statement in Romans 5:18 teach "universal salvation"?

Romans 5:18 Therefore as by the offence of one judgment came upon all men to condemnation; even so by the righteousness of one the free gift came upon all men unto justification of life.

Answer 3

Now with regard to the unique sin, look very heavily, many tries to place Cain as a son of Adam, If that be actual, then Enoch would would desire to be moved all the way down to # 8, yet Cain became right into a son of the upright creature stated as the serpent.
