Jewish in the 21st Century is a growing trend that is sweeping the globe unnoticed by most orthodox of any mainstream religion. A trend that most would not recognize as having any significant effect on the "sheep" of their flocks, albeit there are some who have already gone astray and wondered into forbidden territory. Many of the sheep are looking for fresh water and better green pastures. Many are getting restless, tired and hungry from the same old watered down spiritual food that their shepherd is feeding them at the feeding trough of the pulpit. Think about it this way put yourself in their hoofs and suppose you were only fed died up old dead grass and drank only from stagnant water pools would you get the nourishment that you really need to sustain your mortal body?

If only she had listen to that little still small voice that said "Thou shalt not" we would not need so many various versions of the Holy Scriptures just so we can get a better understanding of what the Creator wanted us to know.

As I said at the beginning of this article there is a growing trend and that trend is a movement that has caused some to go and rediscover their Hebraic roots of the Jews and the Torah that G-d gave Moses on Mount Sinai some 4000 years ago. The movement is commonly
