Welcome to /c/Tumblr
All the chaos of Tumblr, without actually going to Tumblr.
Rule 1: Be Civil, Not Cursed
This isn’t your personal call-out post.
- No harassment, dogpiling, or brigading
- No bigotry (transphobia, racism, sexism, etc.)
- Keep it fun and weird, not mean-spirited
Rule 2: No Forbidden Posts
Some things belong in the drafts forever. That means:
- No spam or scams
- No porn or sexually explicit content
- No illegal content (don’t make this a federal case)
- NSFW screenshots must be properly tagged
If you see a post that breaks the rules, report it so the mods can handle it. Otherwise just reblog and relax.

Hey, that's more than fair enough!
Yeah its Matthew where that happens, the virgin mistranslation thing... and I think also the geneology thing, but I think the geneology thing is a significant part of other Gospels as well?
But yes, what you've explained makes total sense, but that's probably/possibly because I also watch Mindshift and a good deal of other similar kinds of channels.
I guess I just wanted to 1) have the whole 'alma' thing directly verified by someone who can read Hebrew, and 2) make sure I was not unintentionally making some significant error when it comes to trying to parse I guess 'mainstream' Judaism vs Messianic Judaism.
As you are not as familiar with Christianity, I am not so familiar with the various modern... branches, would you say? of Judaism.
In this case it's not really to do with Judaism, but rather the meaning of the Hebrew word ;)
Rabbinic/mainstream orthodox Judaism does have some interesting ideas about Jesus however
