I was a Chassidic 5th grader last year. Reply

I have often thought about the goat and mother’s milk and I think more about the spiritual mother than the flesh mother. For instance water is the mother of fish so don’t cook fish in water or boil as written. Likewise sky the mother of birds.. so cook them as close to earth as possible where flame and or water chokes the sky . Earthly animals can be either. However I have also wondered if the phrase is more extended in that what is the mother’s milk. ? What the mother drinks or the baby drinks from mother.? Reply

Good test the bible actually says do not cook a calf in its mother’s milk now does that apply to chicken as well Reply

6/7
the first question could go either way,but again i surprised myself Reply

No I'm not as smart as a Yeshivah 5th Grader , but I wasn't expecting to be after seeing one of Operah's interview with one boy.
Still I was chuffed to get 80% , as a gentile. Reply

yes talk about vague questions: number seven. "The Torah partially believes a single witness." Either the Torah believes the single witness or not. these questions that have one vague answer can be a waste of time. Reply

correction G-d gave noah only one commandment. The first 6 were already given to Adam. Reply

Puzzling..... fish and grasshoppers may be eaten alive? Really?
I thought the Torah clearly forbids eating any living thing while its still alive ! Reply

The first question (Vows that do not make sense) There are various categories of vows that one cannot make. If the vow is impossible, false, or obvious, then one cannot make it. However, if it does not make sense, but I am going to do it anyways, that I can make it. (Unless 'does not make sense' meant that it is meaningless or ambigous etc.) The question was too vauge Reply
