[Avodah] Gentiles in Torah

[T613K at aol.com]

From: "Yaakov Weiner" 

>>BTW, philosophically speaking, its hard to dismiss a the  notion of a
recognized sense of greater worth or at least a greater sense of  affection
by G-d and humanity for the Jews, based on a moral superiority  (which of
course is the clear attitude in Jewish thought, regardless of  dismissal of
other notions of superiority).  <<
 
 
>>>>
Don't forget that anybody can join the Jewish people  (if he is willing to accept all the multiple obligations, as well as the  troubles and tribulations to which the Jewish people have historically been  subject).  And then the Torah is full of exhortations to be kind,  charitable, welcoming, and sensitive to converts.
