2.       All materials on the TorahFamily.com website are free for personal use but may not be reproduced for sale.  Groups, such as schools, congregations or Torah study groups, may make multiple copies to be used in their group activities or classes, as long as fees charged do not exceed the actual cost of the required paper and ink.

3.       All materials printed from the Torah Family site must include the Torah Family copyright notice.

4.       Content from Torah Family resources and articles may not be copied and pasted into other publications, except as quoted excerpts with proper reference to the source.

5.       Content from Torah Family resources, or the resource files themselves, may not be posted on other websites.  If you would like to make the materials available to your readers, please post links to the appropriate pages on our site instead.

6.       Any exceptions to these policies must be approved by us in writing in advance.

Content:

1.       All content, including posted letters from our readers and entries into the Torah Family Forums, will follow the stated guidelines.

2.      Materials on this website will honor the Jewish traditions of respect for the Name of G-d.  The actual name will not be used in either English or Hebrew.  Substitutions such as "God," "Lord," or "Adonai" are acceptable.  Frequently, the words "God" and "Lord" will be spelled without vowels.  This is not a legalistic standard that is followed without exception, but simply a reminder that the name of G-d is to honored, even when it is referenced indirectly.

3.       While we do not assume that everything Jewish is correct and Biblical, we do approach Jewish resources with respect.

4.      We do not see Jewish tradition on the same level of authority as the commandments of G-d, but we recognize Jewish tradition as a valid expression of Torah obedience.

5.       We approach the Torah with the assumption that it is the heritage of all of G-d's people, regardless of ethnicity.

6.   We recognize that all families have their own unique perspectives and practice, and we make an attempt to present our materials in a way that is useful and inoffensive to messianic believers of all perspectives.  We hope that our readers will give us the same grace when they see things in our own practice or viewpoint that they disagree with.
