To any fellow Jewish people who may be reading this. What does it mean to be Jewish to you and why?, I just found out that i'm adopted and that my maternal parents were Jewish, I would love to know from others what being Jewish means to them and how that has changed your life if you where to say you were a Christian or Muslim etc. Thank you.

Oh dear....
Being Jewish means a huge deal to me.
It means being an outsider in some places but an insider in others. It means belonging to a religion and a family that satisfy my life in a way no other religion or group of people ever could.
If you have any questions about Judaism, feel free to email me
Shabbat shalom!

being jewish to me is more than a religion. unlike many other religions its more of a culture. the holidays, the food, the language, is all different . i love being jewish and wont ever convert, for anything or anyone.

My grandfather was Jewish. I am anti religion however. It never impacted me religiously but it did however make life growing up a living hell considering I had a Jewish last name. My mother is Romany so that doubled it for me.

I am in spirit. And I think there's some in my genetics somewhere a long time ago. I certainly feel connected to Jews for some weird reason. I live in a Jewish neighborhood for some weird reason.

To me, being Jewish means having a way of living, and a path to G-d, which I find extremely satisfying and rewarding. I could go on and on, but that's it in a nutshell.

Jew is no different than any other nation of people. Act chapter 10. What does the word of God say. Believe in God so you may be established. Psalm 50.

If you are a true Hebrew you need to know about your history.
Here is a great place to find out about father Abraham.
