Adding Commentaries from the Academy for Jewish Religion, California to the weekly Torah Portion page[edit]

The Academy for Jewish Religion, California (www.ajrca.org)is a pluralistic Rabbinical, Cantorial and Chaplaincy School based in Los Angeles at The Yitzhak Rabin Hillel Center for Jewish Life at UCLA. It is not affiliated with the Academy for Jewish Religion in New York. The "Parsha of the Week" page on our website: http://www.ajrca.org/parsha_of_the_week.shtml provides a D'var Torah or commentary on the weekly Torah Portion. It is written by AJR, CA faculty, administrators, alumni and senior students. We would very much appreciate your adding a link "Commentaries from the Academy for Jewish Religion, California" to the Commentaries section of Wikipedia's page on the weekly Torah portion. Thank you for your consideration and should you have any questions, I can be reached by email: cheryl@cherylazair.com.

Genesis 32 is a Bible chapter, not a parashah[edit]

Genesis 32 is a Bible chapter, not a parashah There is no justification for Genesis 32, which is also part of the Christian Bible, automatically linking to a rabbinical discussion of a parashah.

A majority of potential users of English Wikipedia are not practicing Jews. I will elaborate: a majority are not Jewish, and not all Jews are practicing Judaism and rabbinical studies, but all these people are potentially interested in the Bible for their own cultural and religious reasons. Therefore, when the topic is a particular Bible verse shared by Jews AND Christians and, frankly, the entire humanity, the Bible passage is of interest, not (just) the parasha & discussion in Judaism. Thank you for considering this.

The discussion can be concentrated on this page. Arminden (talk) 11:19, 22 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
