The overall Messianic Community is a Mishpochah (family) that includes: Messianic Jewish, Messianic Israel, Messianic Yisrael, Messianic Hebrew, Messianic Sephardic, Nazarene Jewish, Nazarene Israel, Nazarene Yisraelite, and like believers. Rather than denominations there are associations or ministries that are generally affiliated with.

Torah Observant

This category lists sites that are Messianic Jewish and 'Torah Observant' in content. Sites that are not proponents of Torah Observant Messianic doctrine will not be included nor the sites of Messianic groups that adhere to a Christian doctrinal statement that mentions nothing about Torah Observance.

Congregation sites can be submitted to an appropriate category in: Messianic_Judaism/Congregations

Find sites with Messianic 'Torah Observant' content that promote Messianic Jewish doctrine, teach Torah Observance, and that Yeshua is the Messiah.

Torah Observance would include those teaching Torah from a New Testament interpretation or a Talmud interpretation. This includes Messianic Jewish groups that are Torah Observant and Messianic Israel or Nazarene Israel groups that are Torah Observant. This would also include Torah Observant groups that follow only a portion of the New Testament and believe that Yeshua is the Messiah and are Torah Observant. There is, of course, a close resemblance to mainstream Judaism and that is because the Jews have kept the ways of the Bible for so long. One of the major differences between Messianics and Judaism is the belief in Yeshua (Jesus) as Messiah. Also, many Messianics hold the New Testament up to the level of Scripture while many Jews, on the other hand, hold the Talmud (Oral Tradition) up to the level of Scripture.
