Can anyone explain what they think is meant by the statement in the podcast that in Judaism, “What you believe follows only after what you do.” 


Can somebody also explain what they think the Jewish customs described in the podcast are being “rediscovered”? 

Sorry for the long question, but I'm really desperate here, please help. I would very much appreciate it, thank you.

You never really understand what you read.  You only understand it clearly once you do it.  I can tell you how to run a track loader and all the safety that goes with it but until you do the pre-run and lube the machine you don't really understand it. 

You can't really understand a religion until you do what it says to do.  You can't understand how Catholics think until you roll up your sleeves with us and wash vegetables at the food bank, or clean dirty toys for the thrift store to give them to kids at Christmas. 

If I just told you how we do things you still don't know why we do it.  When you come out with us and see the people we're helping then you understand.
