Practicing Crypto Judaism
Question
Hello, I'm practicing crypto Judaism, and I need help.
Answer
Shalom!
Thank you for your question.
It is unclear if you are actually Jewish, as most crypto-Jews are not officially Jewish
Only one whose mother (and mother’s mother, etc. etc.) is Jewish is actually Jewish. One whose mother is not Jewish, is not Jewish even if the father or grandfather is Jewish.
Feel free to write about your background and practices and we will try to help you.
