spell of instant anxiety
I think a lot of Americans have a hard time grasping the idea of Jewish indigeneity because they dont know where their own ancestors came from. Maybe they'll have vague ideas like German, Italian, or Irish, but what they know has very little bearing on their day-to-day lives. They don't dress any different, they don't speak the language their great grandparents spoke, they don't hold regular ceremonies and rituals that harken back to the old days.
The idea of an ethnic group maintaining a constant identity over thousands of years is patently absurd to them. "You're telling me you're still mourning something the ancient Romans did? That's ridiculous! Clearly you've fallen for modern Israeli propaganda, otherwise you're deliberately arguing in bad faith in order to justify land theft and genocide!"
It's very frustrating, because when I say these things I do not say them in bad faith. My friend once said "it's a very American thing not to understand large timescales", and I think she was right on the money. The process of American assimilation has cut peoples ties to their ancestors to such a degree that they can no longer comprehend a continuous identity spanning millennia.
So I'm going to say this in the clearest language I can:
There is a genuine, historically provable, continuous connection from ancient Israelites to modern Jews. By the laws and customs of those ancient Israelites I am one of them. Let me reiterate. I am an Israelite, a Hebrew, like from the Bible, and the fact that my identity has been so mythologized and talked about as if it's a thing of the past will never change that.
one of the reasons I'm still religious despite my lifelong battle with faith is that the fantasy aesthetic of judaism is too good. You're telling me a faceless formless god made a covenant with my ancestors bound in sacred scrolls handwritten by master scribes on parchment too holy to touch, and these scrolls are decorated and revered and protected and held in such high regard that when the cabinet they are kept in is open you have to stand in respect. And also you seal this covenant in blood by cutting off a part of your body. thats hardcore say less.
i think people dont realize that a rabbi is not required to make a jewish wedding valid. No officiant is needed for you to get in deep shit all you need is a man a woman and 20 dollars
