Picture

Why is there a picture of a lamb at the top of the page? I don't see its relevance to the article, so I'm removing it. Turbokoala (talk) 01:04, 29 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The lamb was there because of course a lamb was required as a sacrfice in the parshah. But if it somehow offends, we can lose the lamb. Dauster (talk) 12:21, 29 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, but do you think it's important? It looks like it was just plopped down in the middle of the article. If we want to preserve it, I think we should at least give a caption, no? Turbokoala (talk) 03:56, 30 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Discussion

Leviticus 12 is a Bible chapter, not a parashah

There is no justification for Leviticus 12, which is also part of the Christian Bible, automatically linking to a rabbinical discussion of a parashah.

Also, why connect a chapter to what is just a section of it? But this is secondary.

A majority of potential users of English Wikipedia are not practicing Jews. I will elaborate: a majority are not Jewish, and not all Jews are practicing Judaism and rabbinical studies, but all these people are potentially interested in the Bible for their own cultural and religious reasons. Therefore, when the topic is a particular Bible verse shared by Jews AND Christians and, frankly, the entire humanity, the Bible passage is of interest, not (just) the parasha & discussion in Judaism. Thank you for considering this.

The discussion can be concentrated on this page. Arminden (talk) 11:36, 22 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
