Talk:Christian observances of Jewish holidays

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Messianic Jews as Christian denomination

There is any external link for a quotation that can support the statement that includes in Christian denominations the Messianic Jews ? --FlorinCB (talk) 21:10, 21 September 2014 (UTC)

Messianic Judaism lots in that article Krhinestone (talk) 18:24, 22 April 2026 (UTC)

Clumsy opening sentence

The opening sentence is rather clumsy; I assume someone believed that including the article title in the first sentence is necessary, but MOS:BOLDTITLE makes it clear that that is not the case. May I suggest replacing Christian observances of Jewish holidays is the selective adoption of Jewish holidays into Christian religious practice, typically altered and reinterpreted to suit a supersessionist theology. with Some Christians observe select Jewish holidays as part of their religious practice, typically altering and reinterpreting their observation to suit a supersessionist theology.? (I will not be making this change myself, as I'm trying to limit my article editing.) -- Nat Gertler (talk) 01:39, 11 December 2023 (UTC)

Agreed, the original opener doesn't flow quite as well. Making some edits.  Ploni💬  17:33, 11 December 2023 (UTC)

I don't have time to handle it properly at the moment, but it looks like in October there were some slight rephrasings of portions this article from April (the parts about Levine and Greenspoon) added here. Given the amount of material that an IP editor added at that time with no reference, it is probably worth checking if more of it has been borrowed from somewhere. -- Nat Gertler (talk) 06:51, 11 December 2023 (UTC)

Oh, here is the Salon article from 2021 that at least the Diane Cheney, Robbie Medwed, and Kendall Vanderslice material is taken from. -- Nat Gertler (talk) 15:06, 11 December 2023 (UTC)
I have gone ahead and axed the bulk of the criticism section, due to the combination of unsourced and copyright violation. If we do merge the articles, there should be useful material to construct from in the other articles. -- Nat Gertler (talk) 18:01, 11 December 2023 (UTC)

Merge proposal

The Christian observance of Passover article deals with one aspect (Passover) of the broader phenomenon described in this article; I propose merging them. The source page is relatively short and unlikely to be significantly expanded.  Ploni💬

Ploni, you should be good to merge these if you'd like. Thebiguglyalien (talk) 🛸 21:21, 9 February 2026 (UTC)
