Rabbi I have some very simple questions, pardon me if they sound silly.
1.why in such hot atmosphere of Israel rabbis wear suit?
2.what was the dressing of Rabbis in ancient times?, why don't modern day Rabbis wear it as it might be designed for Israeli climate?
3.why while reading some holy scrolls Jews cover their head with a cloth?

Ok, so...if I wasn't born into the Jewish bloodline, can I still be Jewish???

I only just realized how many of my personal spiritual beliefs match up almost perfectly with Judaism!
