I just watched this service for a Religion course I am taking in college. Although my family is Christian, I was surprised by how familiar the service was. I was also surprised how much Hebrew I must have absorbed through my own church services. I couldn't follow all of it, but it was a bit like listening to someone speak (or in this case sing) a language where you've had a year or two of training -- you hear words and phrases you understand. The little kids were adorable.
This looks familiar to you because it actually has nothing to do with the original orthodox Shabbat service in a traditional synagogue. This looks much more like a christian service in church, unfortunately....
@@donaldwilliamfry because Judaism and Christianity are complete opposites. And these nice jews are so far away from their tradition, true Jewish tradition, that it really breaks my heart. There so many things happening here that shouldn't happen and are actually against Shabbat and forbidden on Shabbat I don't even want to start. But, I wish these brothers and sisters of mine well and that God will lead them in the right way, the way of the Torah...
This is SO BEAUTIFUL! This is my first time ever going to temple in my whole life. I am half Jewish by blood was not raised in the faith growing up at all. Wow! I am Jewish Christian at the moment having some dark struggles in the spiritual world. As I read the Torah books of the Old Testament it speaks so deeply to my soul. I am so grateful to see this. I pray the Lord will turn his face toward me and give me peace. I pray the Lord will bless and keep all of you! Love
I really like the fact that a number of synagogues are using a more contemporary approach to their music. It's a beautiful and inspiring blend of tradition and innovation. Central Synagogue in NYC is another good example. Keep up the good work.
I've always found Jewish services more spiritual than the Christian services, as the jews comes since early Bible time I always wanted to attend there services or at least convert from Dutch reformed church (Christian) to Jewish faith, now that Ive left the Christian church indefinitely I hope that God will guide me to the right people to help me become a jew, to obey God's commandments and to live a spiritual life in truth and absolute commitment
Those versions of Lechu Neranena adonai and lecha dodi :o :o :o They have an amazing groove to it, and with the kids joining in, this is quite something
@@Bulvan123 because people who don’t know about Judaism will assume this is the way the religion is really practiced, when in truth, it is very different
@@anonymous__________________ I doubt they will all be that ignorant. Religion is manmade and is practiced anyway a particular set of 'believers' see fit, or you can start an argument about 'true religion'. Thankfully archaeology is revealing how Judaism has evolved throughout the millennia. 😉
Because Christians took a lot of Jewish things for their service. Which kinda makes sense considering the biggest person in their religion was Jewish & all (or almost all) of his original followers were Jews as well.
Rachel Carter yes, it’s “Shalom Aleichem” (“Peace Unto You”, iirc). It’s the welcoming of the angels on Shabbat. I’m dying to find this arrangement, though. I’m able to find it with other melodies, but I love this one
@@BungleZippie I am also from a Reform Judaism. My paternal family were of a Conservative branch. I live in the bay area. It's so nice to see many videos of this service.
You can be, but this isn't judaism, try the seven noajide mitzvot, i think you speak spanish too, like me, you should see the channels i'm subscibed to.
Billy Wee Agreed I could’ve used nicer words but Judaism will go extinct at this rate. I’m afraid Reform Judaism is not the answer and neither is Hareidi. We need common sense , practical Orthodox Judaism that sits down and reasons and sees the needs of Jews and non Jews alike.
I could listen to Cantor Emma Lutz all day long, such a beautiful voice she has!
the mos beautiful, progressive and tolerant branch of Judaism, love you all and wish you a wonderful season of Hannukah, Shalom.
Judiasm has no branches. This is straight kefira
The Children's chorus , is so Beautiful.

sumsum Reform Judaism was actually based on Christianity and Islam, with one article saying that Jesus may have actually been the “OG” Reform rabbi.
@@sumsum5196 Why "unfortunately?"

I am not Jewish however I heard this and it is beautiful.. I have a feeling the angels sound like this. Thank you
Cantor Emma Lutz has the voice of an Angel!!!
So beautiful! I listened to her and can imagine what Deborah, Esther and other women of the Bible sounded like. Thank you.
Shabbat shalom from London England
Beautiful lady, singing a Beautiful song.

This is the first time that I celebrate Shabbat with you.
Thanks , Shabath Shalom from Montréal.

May our Lord shine His light on your path.
Judaism is antiquated and dying out
Lovely. True to the spirit of contemporary Reform Judaism.
I just found your service on TH-cam. I am really enjoying it. Todah rabah
Is this Reconstructionist Judaism ...
@@user-lv4ov5rp6d Reform Judaism ✡️
מדהים ומרגש ונהדר. עיבדו את ה' בשמחה, בשיר וזימרה ורננים. זה היום עשה ה' נגילה ונשמחה בו
Very lovely stuff. The little children’s chorus was fantastic too

Great video on Shabbat Service With Rabbi Josh knobel and Cantor Emma Lutz singing
That was a beautiful service. The music in this synagogue is really good!
Those versions of Lechu Neranena adonai and lecha dodi :o :o :o

Shalom from Miami FL. Amazing service.
Lindo esse kabalath shabath,
So nice reading the comments. Makes me want to convert to nothing at all. Peace out. ✌️
Watching to honor and thank Elohim. 🙏👏👏🙌🙌🙌
Well, the music took me back to church! lol. bassline and all.
You can see the attraction between that husband and wife the man with the guitar & the lady in brown on the stage!
19:19 Finally
As an Orthodox Jew, this is pure entertainment. Absolutely nothing like the true religion
And you felt obligated to share that why?

Randomly watched this and it seems just like a Protestant Christian service
This is like a charismatic church service.
Why does this reminds me of Christian service.
Because Christians took a lot of Jewish things for their service. Which kinda makes sense considering the biggest person in their religion was Jewish & all (or almost all) of his original followers were Jews as well.
Sing to the Lord with a new song. Right in the Siddur.
Hallelujah Amen😊
Very Nice ...good music.
Belíssimo! Todah Rabat!
Could you subtitle the songs in English?
I grew up Catholic and it's jarring how similar the services are--granted the Jewish services has much more singing.
❤❤❤
So what do you guys think about Jesus?
MAZAL TOV!!!
I love this! Do you guys have an album?
Do they take requests? I’d like to her Dreamer by (Supertramp).
Is the first song in Hebrew?
Rachel Carter yes, it’s “Shalom Aleichem” (“Peace Unto You”, iirc). It’s the welcoming of the angels on Shabbat. I’m dying to find this arrangement, though. I’m able to find it with other melodies, but I love this one

This is not an orthodox synagogue.

Wtf is this! Only thing I liked about this video is the lady, too bad she’s not frum . Reform Judaism is a f-ing joke, no offense...
Why would anyone be offended by that?
There's no reason to bash other Jews.

Agreed. Reformist approach is just terrible. But she is beautifull indeed.
Well, im not religious or anything but i'd say its better that people still celebrate in whatever way they wish, its better than going extinct (Aesir)
