TO FOLLOW THE RABBIS… OR NOT? Examining a Messianic Flip-Flop
Evangelical Christians adhere to the doctrine of “Sola Scriptura” – insisting that they only give credence to the scriptures and deriding what they refer to as “the traditions of men”.
Messianic Jews and their organizations follow suit and declare their loyalty to the Bible, which is the word of God – and not the Talmud and Rabbinic teachings.
In this video Rabbi Michael Skobac explores the strange reality of Messianic Judaism’s often slavish mimicry of rabbinic Jewish practice not sourced in the scriptures. This includes celebrating Chanukah, Bar Mitzvah at 13 years of age, wearing a kippah, and lighting Shabbat candles.
