Q) Last year I had a miscarriage. I am not Jewish, but the father is. As I prepare to deal with the grief of the anniversary date, which is soon, I find myself very much wanting to say Kaddish. Is this allowed? Can a non-Jewish woman say Kaddish for a child lost in a miscarriage? If so, please give me an outline of how to do this. Do I light a candle? What do I say? Do I say Kaddish in a synagogue or at home? Etc.? A) A child is not considered a child or alive until birth and a live birth at that, so therefore under Jewish Law there is no such obligation and it is not allowed! This is so for the rest of the questions as they all fall under the same category. yahrzeit.org

"Give me one motive of the apostles to come back into a city where their "leader" was just crucified by the Romans with the blessing of the Jewish leaders." I would assume most lived there....where else would they go, the country was occupied by the Romans who were very powerful militarily. Also none of them may have been considered the threat Jesus was, history bears that out. Did they immediately go back and start preaching or did they go on the lam and preach in secret to groups...you know this is done today..... And I agree with you, I doubt money played any part in this.... "That is why they put guards on the tomb. " Which raises another question. If guards were there, why didn't they see the tombstone being moved, why didn't they stop it? The stone was moved, was it not? If it was moved by an invisible force it would have been seen moving or suddenly have seen that the tomb was open. Also the body was not invisible and it disappeared. Why didn't they see the body being removed? If he was resurrected as flesh and blood, he should have been seen by the guards. If he was resurrected as a human, why didn't he appear to the Romans, they would have known then that they couldn't kill him and would therefore be terrified. Thousands, maybe millions, of conversions would have occurred almost instantly.
