Hillel, Shammai, and Jesus: Describing the Judeo-Christian Tradition While Standing on One Foot

Hillel and Shammai were rabbis in Palestine in the period before Jesus' ministry, and some of their teachings are similar to the teachings of Jesus, so it would be beneficial to ponder these similarities. The following story reflects Jesus’ discussion with the rich young man. Once was a Gentile who came before Shammai and requested: “Convert me to Judaism on condition that you will teach me the entire Torah while I stand on one foot.” Shammai pushed the man away with the building rod he was holding. Undeterred, the man then came before Hillel with the same request. Hillel said to him, “That which is hateful unto you, do not do unto your neighbor. This is the whole Torah; all the rest is commentary. Now, go and study.” And Jesus, as well as St Augustine and many other Church Fathers, concur that this two-fold Love of God and love for our neighbor is the rock upon which our Christian faith should stand. In addition to the many delightful stories about Hillel and Shammai, by comparison we also discuss: • Jesus and the Rich Young Man • Zaccheus and the sycamore tree. • St Augustine and the two-fold Love of God and love for neighbor. • Psalm 1, the First Psalm, on the Gospel of the Law. • How in Acts Peter and the Apostles were brought before Gamaliel in the Jewish Council. • How Jesus demonstrated patience in answering the request by the brothers James and John to sit on the right and left hand of Jesus in Paradise. • Rabbi Telushkin’s discussion of the differences between Judaism and Christianity. • Role of prayer and study for the faithful Jew and faithful Christian. • The Parable of the Rich Fool.

As Socrates teaches us, the examined life is a life worth living. We would be fools if we did not desire to learn from our multitude of friends whose words live in the works of the classics that have survived from past centuries and millennia. The Stoic and moral philosophers of Greece and Rome saw philosophy as an evangelical enterprise, seeking to spread the joy of living a godly life for its own sake. Our projects include: Studying the teachings of the ancient and modern stoic and moral philosophers on how to better lead a godly life. Studying ancient and modern history to learn moral lessons and learn how we can successfully live a life of faith in trying times, including civil rights and social gospel history. Studying issues of morality in the Catholic, Orthodox, Protestant and Jewish traditions. Everyone should join and participate in their local church. However, my internet persona is purposefully obscure so that I can be respectful of all genuine Judeo-Christian traditions, I do not wish to be disrespectfully polemical.
