The $10,000 Torah Challenge has been sent to six professors and ten doctors at The Bible Studies department of Bar Ilan University in Israel. In addition, it has also been sent to at least fifteen faculty members at Brandeis University who are in some way or another related to Jewish Studies or Education. So far, not one of these “scholars” has even attempted to answer the question:
Can you, according to the Torah, prove that Judaism does indeed pass through the mother?
Judaism passes thru the mother merely because the rabbis say so; not because of what is written in the Torah!
The Torah clearly says it is permissible to marry Canaanite virgins. How could God have told Moses, orally, that Judaism passes thru the mother and then made a written law which says it is okay to marry Canaanite virgins? Do you think it is possible the rabbis are lying?

and countless other Jewish Institutions and synagogues.
Yet, not one single rabbi has responded. Why not?
