    We don’t just follow blindly. We debate and question and struggle with it.

      I'm sorry. I should have been more careful with my statements.

      There's the classic joke of "three rabbis debate a biblical passage and end up with four different interpretations" that illustrates this.

      ​@@mariosportsmaster7662 another youtuber sam aronow made a sort-of response to this video after matt made this video and an updated version shortly after to make some corrections

    I think you would really like the channel Religion for Breakfast. He has a video about Zoroastrianism and tons of videos about all sorts of religions.

      Thank you for the suggestion. I will definitely check them out, I think youtube has recommended the channel before as well. This might be a sign lol. I really appreciate your comment 🙌🏾.

    The way you and Matt Baker describe salvation is a very Protestant way of looking at salvation. Works are a part of faith in the Catholic view. If you believe something, it means nothing unless you put it into practice.

    Another member of Jew Gang here. Firstly great job with the video. If you’re interested in Jewish history check out Sam Arronow. He makes phenomenal content about Jewish history. How ever again, great work

    a lot of us do avoid technology and the internet on shabbos and if you're strictly orthodox, it is forbidden. however, i am reform and so while i stay off of my phone for example as much as i can, i will use the internet to study the torah or if any reason i can not make it to synagogue, our local synagogue offers zoom meetings that can be attended so if im sick or just can't make it, i can still attend synagogue. i also will drive to synagogue because i live about 15-20 miles away from it and so lets be real, driving that distance is far less like work than walking.
    hope this helps clarify anything

    • @DevonRucker

      Thank you. That does clarify a lot. My videos would definitely be more considered entertainment/possibly educational lol. So I'm sure not too many people will be watching on the Sabbath. I really appreciate your comment 🙌🏾.

    quick note about beta yisrael: the "beta" does have to do with the letter beta in greek or bet in hebrew, but it doesnt mean secondary or minor. the "beta" in beta yisrael means house, so altogether "beta yisrael" means "House of Israel"

  • @susanstein6604
    @susanstein6604 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    Beta means house in Hebrew. Beta Israel means House of Israel. It’s not the Greek beta.

    • @JoeyMiller-v6c
      @JoeyMiller-v6c 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      well the hebrew letter bet origanally was a drawing of a house, and the letter beta comes from that. but its more of a common origin.

    If you wanna learn some basic stuff of zoroastrianism the channel Cogito has a video about it, they also have a video on the Dharminc faiths (hinduism, buddaism, jainism, sikism) aswell as a video on Judaism and islam which from what i know are pretty good.

    • @DevonRucker
      @DevonRucker  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thank you for your comment 🙌🏾. I will take a look and add some videos to the list of reactions to do. I really appreciate the suggestion.

    The King James Version (KJV) is not really a good translation; a much better one would be either the New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition (NRSVue) or the New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition (NRSV-CE). I am currently using the New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition, but when/if a Catholic edition comes out, I will switch to that. The only difference in a Catholic edition is the biblical canon used.
    The New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition is one of the translations used in the _Catechism of the Catholic Church,_ alongside the Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition (RSV-CE), and it is also considered the academic standard for Bible translations, or at least until it will be replaced by the New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition (it came out very recently, so it is not widely used yet).
    While it is the current scholarly consensus, there is a lot of evidence against the idea that the Israelites were originally polytheistic Canaanites and that the Exodus never happened.
    The ones that condemned Jesus were the Pharisees and Sadducees. What a lot of people forget is that the New Testament also shows good Pharisees, some of whom even warn Jesus about the plot against him.
    The Romans never conquered what is today Germany. By the time the Ashkenazi Jews moved there, the area was controlled by the Holy Roman Empire, a completely different country from the true Roman Empire, which at the time survived in the east as the Byzantine Empire. Quite confusingly, none of these names were the ones used at the time: they were both officially called "Roman Empire". Many Jews remained in Italy; today they are called Italkim, and they are older than both Sephardi Jews and Ashkenazi Jews.
    The Jewish sidelocks are called pe'ot ("corners"), although Yemenite Jews also call them simanim ("signs"). Orthodox Jews generally do not use any electricity on Shabbat.
    Pikuach nefesh is not unique to Judaism; the Catholic equivalent would be the principle of double effect.
    "Sexual sins" _are_ included in the Ten Commandments, specifically in the sixth commandment (what all Protestants except Lutherans, the Eastern Orthodox, Samaritans, and Jews call the seventh commandment). As the _Catechism of the Catholic Church_ explains, the sixth commandment commends chastity and condemns lust, masturbation, fornication, pornography, prostitution, rape, homosexual acts, birth control, adultery, divorce, polygamy, incest, child sexual abuse, and free unions.
    The Low Countries are Belgium, Luxembourg, and the Netherlands. All three used to be part of the Kingdom of the Netherlands, before Belgium and Luxembourg broke away. Nederland (the Dutch name for the Netherlands) literally means "low-land".
    Your next video should be the reaction to "Islamic Denominations Explained", and you should do in on Friday: Jews have Shabbat ("rest") on Saturday, Christians have the Lord's Day on Sunday, and Muslims have Jumu'ah ("congregation") on Friday.

      A lot of great information there, thank you because you are one of the people who always comes with incredible information, and I always appreciate any knowledge that you're able to share with me 🙌🏾. I will definitely do the Islamic video on a Friday, and thank you again for clarifying all that up. It's always incredible how much info you're able to share every video.

      @silvia_arienti, How on earth do any of the Ten Commandments forbid any past or present birth control methods?
      I understand that a Catholic might believe they are forbidden (aside from the rhythm method which is allowed by Catholicism) based on papal decree.
      If there’s evidence that the Israelites took it this way, please enlighten me.

    • @DevonRucker
      @DevonRucker  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Personally, I wasn't taught that any commandment speaks against birth control. It might just be mostly a Catholic thing, or maybe my church was more relaxed on that stuff lol. But I know some people believe having access to birth control gives people a reason to have pre martial sex.

    beta israel is from aramaic meaning House of israel. Beta means house/community

    Sorry I am late. One of my own rabbis sent in a correction to the original version of this chart, and the author was graceful enough to issue a corrected version. Who would do that?

    • @DevonRucker
      @DevonRucker  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @usefulcharts is a very cool company. They listen to the audience, and they seem to come from a place of "we have done research, but we are not infallible." I like that approach.

    Zoroastrianism originated in Persia.
