Did judaism replace kabbalah?

[Brad]

I know in a way it did, but i wanted to see how you explain it. I always hear people saying christianity or messianic judaism replaced judaism they call it replacement theology, but little do they know, judaism replaced kabbalah …

It certainly became the more dominant ideology.

aside from choosing our environment do we have free will to choose what to think and feel and move our body?

[Chris – KabU Instructor]

This is where the “perception” of choice exists but not free choice itself.

Free choice of choosing the right environments seem big enough area to choose, in what we are not free?

[Chris – KabU Instructor]

We think we’re “choosing” when we look at the items on the menu at a restaurant, this gives us the perception of choice. That’s just a metaphor of course. Choosing the environment gives us which restaurants to choose and which items on the menu are available.

I asked this last week but i don’t think it was answered, rather i got an explanation of what the two mean. Q- Does being biologically  born a Jew have any advantage over being Born a Non Jew?

[Chris – KabU Instructor]

Ah ok, I misunderstood then. The answer then would be no if you’re asking in relation to spiritual advancement since “Jew” only refers to this aspect of a person according to Kabbalah, and not who their mother was.

[Brad]

Is the nefesh the point in the heart? Because that is also translated as soul.

[Chris – KabU Instructor]

Neshama is translated as soul in the sense you’re asking about. Nefesh is more of like…”life force” and not the eternal part of a person, the “soul” which is Neshama.

[Brad]

So nefesh is when we are like the same level as animal ? It can’t be referring to “The Soul” because animals don’t reincarnate and can’t have equivalence of form with the creator?

[mrc s]

What is humble, humility means? Is it thinking that I’m poor, stupid, bad etc?

[Chris – KabU Instructor]

It means lowering oneself and subjugating towards the upper one.
