1. Why do the Catholics have the books of Maccabee as scripture and the Jews don't?
user100 [1]

Answer:

Explanation:

1. There are few theories on why the books of Maccabees are not part of Jewish scriptures.

The first one is the date; it is believed that the Council of Jamnia only took books that existed for a long time and were unofficially considered canonical when canonizing Hebrew Bible. The events in the old testament go from the Creation to the book of Esther, happening during the rebuilding of the Temple. For them, The Maccabean Revolt was the recent event, happening after these mentioned ones.

The more probable reason, however, lies in the separation of Judaism on two fractures – <em>the Pharisees</em> and<em> theSadducees</em>. While Pharisees lean towards ideas of oral law and tradition, Sadducees reject them and follow the written Torah as the only canon. The Maccabees are believed to be descendant from Pharisees, and quite possibly excluded from canonization by a council of Jamnia because of this reason.

However, the books of Maccabees are still valuable historical account, the one because of which Hanukah is celebrated.

2. Because of the evidence presented above, the answer is - Yes, it is true that the first and second Maccabee books were written as part the Jewish history.

Marty enjoys watching violent action movies and television shows on most evenings as well as listening to music with violent lyr
IceJOKER [234]

The correct answer would be, Social Scripts.

According to social psychologists, his beliefs are due to Social Scripts, which are mental tapes for how to act due to this exposure to media violence.

Explanation:

When some behaviors or series of behavior are expected in a particular situation, this is called as a social script.

Social Roles define the Social Scripts. People know how they have to behave in a particular situation.

Some examples of Social Scripts are that girls wear pink and boys wear blue. Similarly, when people go for condolence, they are not supposed to laugh.

So when Marty responds aggressive in situations where he thinks he needs to act like a man, this is Social Script.
