About Eli Hadar
Expertise
If you are a Jewish person who has been approached by missionaries and who is considering leaving the Jewish faith, please let me know and I will help you see how beautiful and moreover how right the Jewish religion is. Don't leave the truth of your fathers before you resolve the facts for yourself, and I can help you on that journey.

Experience
I have been involved in counter-missionary activity for several years, counseling many Jews who have left or have considered leaving Judaism having been attracted by other religions. I have been able to show the truth to these people through the correct reading of the texts (vs. deliberately wrong translations used by missionaries), through showing how missionaries manipulate the Jewish scriptures to achieve their goals, and through helping you rediscover the beauty and truth of authentic Judaism.

Organizations
Chabad synagogue in Atlanta

Education/Credentials
Largely self-taught, I still am and will be learning for a long, long time. I have educated myself through a wealth of resources, including Nachmanides' Disputation, Hyam Maccoby's writings on Christianity and Judaism, as well as such vast resources as Outreach Judaism, Torah Atlanta, and a great number of others.

Orthodox Judaism - jewish view of non jews


Expert: Eli Hadar - 10/19/2009

Question
what would you say is the jewish view of non jews?( I am not a jew by the way, i'm just wondering)

Answer
Hi Mariam,
the Jewish view of non-Jews is like this. G-d created Jews and non-Jews for distinct and different purpose. Nobody is better or worse; we're just different, and we do the best we can to live in harmony with our neighbors. This is seen quite clearly in Israel, where many religions coexist side by side even though there's no separation of religion and state. Outside the state of Israel, we live and work in societies that are largely non-Jewish, and we try to maintain our individuality and observe our traditions along with observing the laws and traditions of the land we live in.

Don't know if this covers what you were looking for, but perhaps if you have a more detailed question, I could try and address it in a more detailed manner. Please let me know and I will be happy to give you a better explanation.

All the best,
Eli
