Re: ask a jew
On the kosher food.
Do Jews believe that these laws are derived from a spiritual transcendental context? (the word/will of God)
It seems to me these laws/rules are derived from material nature rather than the spiritual nature; of course a few millenniums ago at a time very different to this age it would have been practical. But in kali- yuga when there is a vast amount of technology and increasing technology we understand it is understood that the costs to human health for animals who "dont chew the cud" or have "cloven hooves" can be reduces and removed through an understanding of hygiene.
Or are the laws not derived from negative health costs?
please clear this up
