2 questions: 1. How and when were Torah and Haftorah notes created. How were the different tropes created. Why are there different tropes for Torah and Haftorah.I am a Haftorah teacher and am curious. 2. On Shavuot, did Hashem recieve the 10 commandments or the Torah?

I am an orthodox Jew and work in a New Jersey public school. I have found your site helpful in the past. One of the teachers in a middle school history class approached me on behalf of her students with the following question: why did/do the jewish people not believe in Jesus, He was a jew and taught Jews in the Temple?

Dear Rabbi Becher: I had the following question, if we believe that whatever Hashem does is for the good why are there tefillos to "ward" off problems, etc. Thank you.

Shalom uvrachot! I would like to know if the LIVER is kasher or it is removed by the shochet during the shechitah. Gratefull and wishing to you a Chag Shavuot Sameach, Tiago
