You said that the movie "has a jewish reference in the title. promised land is a specific jewish concept from torah." And yet you can't find it in the torah. So now, the movie would have to be named "the land concerning which I raised my hand". I checked IMDB. It isn't called that and for you to decide that "raised my hand" equals "promise" is just you twisting words.
according to whom? No translation I have ever seen. Here is the Hebrew...have at it
So now, your claim is that any time the text uses the phrase "raised hand" it means a "promise" because God foresaw the American court system?
So all the other examples I posted must also mean promise, right? You should read them before you answer...
the one you mentioned doesn't mention satan, and your argument was that the phrase "raise hand" MEANS "promised." Now you have to backtrack and say "only sometimes"?
IOW, this is the case you need it to mean that, and not the others, you decide that it means this only here. This is another reason why this is not about anything Jewish, but about our own personal thoughts about things.this is the only place where "promised land" is the only the land that matters when there are no other options for being whole and complete in the world of our minds.
You are running in circles. You ask what Judaism says, and when you find out it says something different, you insist that what you are presenting is Jewish because you have insisted that it is Jewish. Your ideas aren't Jewish, your translation is erroneous, and nothing you say is related to Judaism. If you acknowledge that, then you might be able to learn something.
