The Science of God by Gerald Schroeder explains the convergence of science and Torah, including an explanation for how the 6 days is very much backed by science
The oldest Vedic inscriptions are found in Syria which is north to where Abraham supposedly lived. Also the Vedas are much older than Torah. Sanatan Dharma is not confined to any particular geographical region, tribes, time or group of people.
Syria is not north of where he lived, it is exactly the area around where he lived and his people, before, and after. Abraham came from UR, where his ancestors lived in mesopotamia, modern Iraq/Iran and he traveled to Canaan (modern day Israel), all the way to Egypt as well
With all due respect, do you think we treat farmed animals the way we would want others to treat us? Please look into what happens, for example, on a chicken factory farm or on a dairy factory farm. These poor animals live miserable lives and then are shipped off to either kosher or non kosher slaughterhouses. Then ask yourself if we are keeping that mandate or just giving it lip service. And finally, would you take a young child on a field trip to a factory farm or to watch a vulnerable and innocent animal having his/her throat slashed? I don't mean to be disrespectful but I have to get people to think about this issue or nothing will ever change. Not changing will have environmental, health and social repercussions.

Thank you for such an interesting and intelligent debate🙏 As a non believer, I believe in what Rabbi Friedman explained that we must bring God to Earth. To clean the mess he has created!!! This concept of God has played in my mind since my teens years in a semi believing Islamic Iranian family. Those days I cal it Good years, we were a multi cultural and multi religious society, Sadly our world was shattered with rising of a cultish fundamentalist Ayatollahs regime. Outside of Iran for years I was busy trying to educate myself and earn a living, but the thought of existence of God never left me. Till the time came to study Chinese Medicine/ philosophy. Then everything fell into place that, “I” made the God🪷 The earliest men created the unique God, part by part, after every disasters, he looked up towards the sky, because the Earth he was standing on was either rumbling with Earthquakes opening its mouth to swallow him or melted lava from the Volcano turn him to ashes or flood will carry him to the oceans or even Hurricanes will twist him around like a grain of sand. And if he was lucky and didn’t have those colossal scares in his primitive life. Then Rain wouldn’t come to feed his crops, or Hot Blazing Sun will cook him and his animals with his crops. Yes I, You, Us!!! Made the GOD. It makes sense to think that all the believes and subsequent religions stems from Hinduism( multiple Gods) then Brahmanism will develop . I agree strongly.❤️
Rabbi, I don't know if you will read this, but I was taught that Torah starts with letter Bet. The Bet (looks like a squared off C for those who don't know) means that we are not to look back, look up, look down, and only to look forward. Thus the Earth was here way long before G-d made us. Curious what you think of that.
After sleeping on it, this should explain exactly why these kids are being done as diservice and are leaving here entirely unequipped for real world discussions: th-cam.com/video/Lz6qUG-3UBc/w-d-xo.html Rabbi's should not try to go outside their expertise, certainly hearing a Rabbi practically say "The Torah IS a history book" is something no serious student of Judaism should come close to hearing. Playing lingustic games and semantics will not help, especially among people who see these from a mile away. The truth is these conversations will take at least an hour to really explain, and these methods won't make more Ben Shapiros... they'll make the people Ben rips apart. This is an amazing topic, completely mishandled.
I think that it's part of the reason I was guided from Christianity on to Judaism (as a Noachide), there was a moment when I made my first realization. I would go to hell forever for G-d. I love Him. I think everything in my life went badly for ten years, but now look at me, I'm in the largest room in my group-home for disabled people, I have everything I need, I can get books, I have a good internet connection and I'm reasonably comfortable. Hashem has blessed me with a life without work in exchange for all the suffering I've been through, without even being rich and therefore not a target of lawsuits. I am happy. That's all a man can ask for really, but I've been getting so much better as technology has advanced that I may be able to work from home, which I'm really looking forward to.
I think this fails to really address what a religion is. Absolutely on point on belief, but the legitimate reason why people don't believe in HaShem is that HaShem doesn't work on command. When people say they "believe" in science, they're just trying to say "we accept scientific findings as reliable", the semantics game only works if you assume people think that deeply into what words they use and what they describe. So the thing these people want addressed is something that they actually can only address for themselves. It's not the angle to look at this from if we're in any sort of "solution-focused" approach...
Somehow I made it through this entire video, triggered over 20 times, I think what sums up the problem with this man’s influence was that the girl at the end said she has more questions than she started with. He is not representing Torah.
@@shainazion4073 Hinduism is approx 5000 years old, Judaism is much younger about 1800 years old, seems like Judaism and other Abrahamic religions are related to Hinduism. So by this logic it’s Brahmin to Abraham.
Ezekiel 34 is relevant here: "... therefore, O shepherds [Rabbi's and leaders of Israel], hear the words of the Lord: this is what the Sovereign Lord says: I am against the shepherds and will hold them accountable for my flock. I will remove them from tending the flock so that the shepherds can no longer feed themselves. I will rescue my flock from their mouths, and it will no longer be food for them. For this is what the Sovereign Lord says: I myself will search for my sheep and look after them"
On this subject, I heartily recommend a track I discovered by accident (it appeared in my 'recommended' feed) by a British band called UNIT. The track is A Tribute To The Israeli Defence Force and it is excellent - tuneful and forceful without being bombastic combined with a lovely lyric. I know next to nothing about the group but on investigation I see they've recorded a whole batch of Jewish related tracks such as Pesach, Yom Kippur, Bar Mitzvah, Israel Is Real, The 613 Mitzvot and probably others I don’t know about yet. Some of them feature Rabbi Moshe Bryski which is definitely a recommendation in itself.
Verse for reference: "No one alive will be considered righteous in His sight based on the legalistic observance of Torah commands, for what the Torah truly does is reveal to people how sinful they are." This is a pitiable situation where the Jews are rejecting the reality of the truth. A thought for a reasonable mind: What happens when you follow the law and purify your soul from all evil? As stated in Leviticus 18:5: "Keep My statutes and My judgments, for the man who does these things will live by them. I am the LORD." You should live and not die. But why has no one been able to live and not die through the observance of the law and self-righteousness? As mentioned in Psalms 49:7-11: "But no one has enough to buy back a life, and you cannot bribe God. You will never have enough money to pay for your own life. You will never have enough to buy the right to live forever and keep your body out of the grave. The wise die the same as fools and stupid people. They die and leave their wealth to others. The grave will be their new home forever." You are in your fallen flesh - remember this. You cannot deny the statement in Romans 7:15-24: "I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do, I do not do, but what I hate, I do. And if I do what I do not want to do, I agree that the law is good. As it is, it is no longer I who do it, but it is sin living in me. For I know that good itself does not dwell in me, that is, in my sinful nature. For I have the desire to do what is good, but I cannot carry it out. For I do not do the good I want to do, but the evil I do not want to do-this I keep on doing. Now if I do what I do not want to do, it is no longer I who do it, but it is sin living in me that does it. So I find this law at work: Although I want to do good, evil is right there with me. For in my inner being I delight in God’s law; but I see another law at work in me, waging war against the law of my mind and making me a prisoner of the law of sin at work within me. What a wretched man I am! Who will rescue me from this body that is subject to death? Thanks be to God, who delivers me through Jesus Christ our Lord!" And so, As said in Deuteronomy 30:14: "But the word is very near you; it is in your mouth and in your heart, so that you may obey it." Romans 10:8-10: "But what does it say? 'The word is near you; it is in your mouth and in your heart,' that is, the word of faith we are proclaiming: that if you confess with your mouth, 'Jesus is Lord,' and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For with your heart you believe and are justified, and with your mouth you confess and are saved." - A day is coming, You Jews will have to repent and acknowledge the truth that Jesus is the Promised Messiah (son of david / son of God) As said in Zechariah 12:10 “And I will pour out on the house of David and the inhabitants of Jerusalem a spirit of grace and supplication. They will look on me, the one they have pierced, and they will mourn for him as one mourns for an only child, and grieve bitterly for him as one grieves for a firstborn son.
*Finally Judaism is accepting OR copying Jesus Christ and Christians in that; "We aren't a religion, we're a relationship." Established by the Love of God through Jesus Christ! 💕Jesus Loves You!*
Religion is a set of beliefs, that is what Manis Freidman just said, the Ramba outlines the 13 core beliefs, which are the basis of Judaism. Above the religion, we are a nation, yes, the indigenous people of Judea.
The difference between believing and knowing is like the difference between believing in a big bang where nothing exploded and became everything in space, and that you are spinning in circles at 1000 miles an hour and hurtling through an impossible expanding vacuum of space at 1/2 million miles an hour and seeing stars that are billions of miles and billions of light years away. Instead, you can KNOW what shape the earth is by standing on the seashore and using your God-given common sense. It is just as Genesis 1 says it is, small and calm and close.
*SO NOW that some understanding and Wisdom of the Torah had been exposed, are you ready to FIND OUT who's been the ONLY Man to fulfill the Torah?* *I invite you to meet the One and Only MESSIAH that already CAME and will RETURN, know all the wonders that He did, all the prophecies in the Torah fulfilled through Him and by Him, Jesus Christ; The One that said: “The time has come,” He said. “The kingdom of God has come near. Repent and believe the good news!” Those were the Words of the Messiah; recorded in Mark 1:15*
This is why Christianity is the ultimate form of the 1st century Judaisms. Jesus is the man who came down from heaven as the Word of God to preach the good news of forgiveness of sins by his sacrifice on the cross and the resurrection. Jesus mission was not to bring sinners to heaven as spirits, but for the bodily resurrection of believers, the reconatitution of Eden and for God to return to Eden with Jerusalem as his home ✝️
You said Abraham became jewish. How can Prophet Abraham become jewish, when he was not before? His mother was not jewish, neither was his father. "O People of the Book! Why do you argue about Abraham, while the Torah and the Gospel were not revealed until long after him? Do you not understand?" holy Quran 3:65 "Abraham was neither a Jew nor a Christian, but he was one inclining toward truth, a Muslim [submitting to Allāh]. And he was not of the polytheists."holy Quran: 3:67 "And among the People of the Scripture is he who, if you entrust him with a great amount [of wealth], he will return it to you. And among them is he who, if you entrust him with a [single] coin, he will not return it to you unless you are constantly standing over him [demanding it]. That is because they say, "There is no blame upon us concerning the unlearned." And they speak untruth about Allāh while they know [it]."holy Quran: 3:75 "Absolutely! Those who honour their trusts and shun evil-surely Allah loves those who are mindful of Him" holy Quran: 3:76

@ianmartinesq That was the destruction of the Temple, and the exile of the Jewish people. This has been a 1954 year exile so far. We're going back now though :)
@@DrKaii But since the mitzvah was given at Sinah, wouldn’t it make more sense to count from the date the Children of Israel started practicing the law? Why is the destruction of the temple a better date to count from?
@@ianmartinesq ah, yes, you are right, we haven't had the reward that was promised to Abraham and sealed 3335 years ago at Sinai. However, the Rabbi wasn't being precise, because the duration was not really the point - the fact that the reward hasn't come was what he was emphasising. The last 2 thousand years have proven more than else that we haven't had the Moshiach reward yet.
@@DrKaii I see. But that’s not the only reward that could hypothetically be expected, so it seems a little odd to limit the discussion to that one factor. And with that context it seems a little pointed.

This Rabbi's etymological deconstruction of Abraham and Brahmins is excruciatingly ignorant and, therefore, racist. I am shocked that, once again, ideologues are confusing Hindu concepts with their own. The last time a westerner attempted such etymological mind jitsu with a Hindu concept, the word was "Aryan". Ultimately, though, this Rabbi fails in his own analysis because Abraham's name was not Abraham until late in his life, but Abram cannot be contorted in Brahmin. In his opening remark, this Rabbi proclaims proudly he never recieved a higher education. It's never too late, Rabbi. May I suggest studying linguistics?
After oct 7, there's been so many of these videos popping out of nowhere on my TH-cam, I've always been curious about judaism and what they believe. Now I see why they act and move as a group a certain way. They have no accountability, and they don't believe that even God can hold them accountable. They have corrupted the scripture. I am more affrim in my religion, which guides me in this world and holds me accountable to God for every action. This rabbi sounds confuse, i bet these students are more confuse. He's speaking from his opinion and not from scripture. Misguided and Misguiding others.
He has his way of sharing the information. He is definitely not confused. It's his way of talking. He is extremely knowledgeable. In terms of accountability. You make a huge assumption from one discussion. G-d says chose life by keeping my laws etc, its not otherwise you will go to he'll. It's a relationship.He is considered a creator,our king , our father. We behave in this manner. But all people are different. Just as a father punishes his kid for doing something "naughty" a good father does this for his own good. Just as a king gets to make the law and we have to obey, or we die.. It's more about the reverence we supposed to have ,not the death. Just as a creator creates something new. We constantly remind ourselves without G-d we are nothing and don't exist. If that is not accountability. Then what is
@cls5355 you make no sense , just a bunch of word salad. Whether we obey or not, we will die. Yes, God is the creator. What are you saying that's new. You sound more confused than him. It is simple. We are here temporarily. We have a choice to obey God or not. Thise who obey God go to heaven, those who don't go to hell. That is accountability, knowing that you Will be questioned by God for every action. You can accept it or not, but that will not change reality.
*NO, is that you need to understand philosophy in order to understand theology (though isn't a requirement). It's just deep thinking translated to words. They're different ways to do it, JESUS used metaphors with even more profound TRUTHS that Jews including this Rabbi couldn't understand or REFUSE to "Believe", reason why they rejected their Messiah and found the way to get the Romans to crucify Him, WHICH by the way had been long prophecied in their own TORAH! (With all respect, isn't that awesome)*
@principleswise9749 keep scratching your head with philosophy and everything else. The truth is straight clear and easy to understand. Like i said, you can accept or not. We have free will, but that will not change anything. We will all die, and we will all have to account to God for what we did.
Well, he was completely wrong about the word Brahman having anything to do with Abraham. How does he know that the Messiah is coming? Where is his proof? And science is not a belief. It’s based off of proven evidence. You can’t prove the things that supposedly happened in the Torah.
The only relgion mentioned explicitly in the Coran is Islam (submission to God). According to the Coran, Abraham, Ishmael, Isaac, Jacob, Joseph, Joshua, Asra, David and his Son Salomon and Mohamed are all Muslims (obedient and Submitting to God). In the Old and New Testaments, no explicit word mentions that Judaism or Christianity are religions.
What should we say Avraham, our forefather, obtained by his own efforts? For if Avraham came to be considered righteous by God because of legalistic observances, then he has something to boast about. But this is not how it is before God! For what does the Tanakh say? “Avraham put his trust in God, and it was credited to his account as righteousness.” Now the account of someone who is working is credited not on the ground of grace but on the ground of what is owed him. However, in the case of one who is not working but rather is trusting in him who makes ungodly people righteous, his trust is credited to him as righteousness. In the same way, the blessing which David pronounces is on those whom God credits with righteousness apart from legalistic observances: “Blessed are those whose transgressions are forgiven, whose sins are covered over. Blessed is the man whose sin Adonai will not reckon against his account.” Now is this blessing for the circumcised only? Or is it also for the uncircumcised? For we say that Avraham’s trust was credited to his account as righteousness; but what state was he in when it was so credited - circumcision or uncircumcision? Not in circumcision, but in uncircumcision! In fact, he received circumcision as a sign, as a seal of the righteousness he had been credited with on the ground of the trust he had while he was still uncircumcised. This happened so that he could be the father of every uncircumcised person who trusts and thus has righteousness credited to him, and at the same time be the father of every circumcised person who not only has had a b’rit-milah, but also follows in the footsteps of the trust which Avraham avinu had when he was still uncircumcised. For the promise to Avraham and his “seed’’ that he would inherit the world did not come through legalism but through the righteousness that trust produces. For if the heirs are produced by legalism, then trust is pointless and the promise worthless… The reason the promise is based on trusting is so that it may come as God’s free gift, a promise that can be relied on by all the seed, not only those who live within the framework of the Torah, but also those with the kind of trust Avraham had - Avraham avinu for all of us. This accords with the Tanakh, where it says, “I have appointed you to be a father to many nations.” Avraham is our father in God’s sight because he trusted God as the one who gives life to the dead and calls nonexistent things into existence. For he was past hope, yet in hope he trusted that he would indeed become a father to many nations, in keeping with what he had been told, “So many will your seed be.” His trust did not waver when he considered his own body - which was as good as dead, since he was about a hundred years old - or when he considered that Sarah’s womb was dead too. He did not by lack of trust decide against God’s promises. On the contrary, by trust he was given power as he gave glory to God, for he was fully convinced that what God had promised he could also accomplish. This is why it was credited to his account as righteousness. But the words, “it was credited to his account . . . ,” were not written for him only. They were written also for us, who will certainly have our account credited too, because we have trusted in him who raised Yeshua our Lord from the dead - Yeshua, who was delivered over to death because of our offences and raised to life in order to make us righteous. (Romans chapter 4; Emissary Sha’ul)
If Judiasm is not a religion or a belief system then what is it? He says it's a way of thinking based on "facts", on "truth"? The rabbi says that the Torah is the truth. Isn't that a belief? He says the ancient Jews stood in front of Har Sinai and this is a fact, not a belief. Gd created a mature world. How does he "know" these things? How does that make any sense when our empirical senses and our logical brain tell us something else? Science and Judiasm can go hand in hand and the six days can be six time periods. Why pit one against the other? We perceive reality through our limited human perspective.
Utterly beautiful. That I would be drawn to Judaism, Hinduism and Buddhism after fleeing the LDS Cult I was coercively forced into...was no coincidence then?
Judaism is not a religion, and it is the stem of all religions. All religions borrowed the core teaching of Judaism such as Ten Commandments and today this law is implemented in courts system and moral courses in all nations except for Shabbat and No idolatry. All religions are idolatry so they are not really divine.
You defined a religion as “a set of beliefs”, and say that Judaism isn’t a religion because it’s about doing what G-d says. But if you don’t believe G-d said to do those things why are you doing them? If you actually reject the existence of G-d and you reject that G-d gave certain commands, would you follow his commands? I think not. You say, G-d is coming down and that he needs us to do certain things. Do you believe that? If so, isn’t that part of a set of beliefs? If not, why try to live like you do believe it?
Because it’s not a belief that he said those things it’s known that he came down at Sinai and said gave us those commandments as he said in the video everything in Judaism can be known, so it can be known that g-d came down to Sinai and gave us these commandments it’s not a belief that he gave them to us
@@zeveisenberger6605 That seems to me to be mere semantics. The Sinai encounter can’t been proven empirically and the good rabbi acknowledges in the video that he wouldn’t know how to substantiate it. He just says that it can be known because it happened. But he doesn’t really *know* that. He believes that. I’m sure a Buddhist would point out that altered states of mind that Buddhism offers can be detected on MRI. Christians would say the resurrection happened and is therefore knowable. Hindus claim various miracles took place and therefore should be knowable. There are critical historians who deny that the encounter at Sinai ever took place. I wasn’t there. Nor is there hard proof. So, I don’t *know* it. I do believe it. Nor can we really say we *know* that the Torah is from G-d. That can’t be proved evidentially. You can’t even postulate it as a thing that could be *known* unless you first prove the existence of G-d, which he did not do in this sitting.
Once you know it's known, you can believe it strongly . It's not just faith based. There is so much knowledge in the Torah and G-dly people that can testify to this
@@zeveisenberger6605 Some people question whether Socrates existed. Is it “known” that Socrates existed? Or is it debatable? If the existence of Socrates is debatable, then how is the historicity of Sinai not also debatable? Richard Elliot Friedman, who is a Jew and taught at the Jewish Theological Seminary, wrote, “Who Wrote the Bible?” That book expounds the documentary hypothesis. It calls into question the traditional authorship of the Tanach. If a Jew can call into question the origin of the documentary evidence in support of a historical claim about the Bronze Age, to what extent can we say that the historical claim is “known”?
@@cls5355 No speaker today observed the event at Sinai. It can’t be tested experimentally. It’s a historical proposition about an event in the Bronze Age. Many scholarly Jews like Richard Elliot Friedman call into question the traditional authorship of the Tanach. If the authorship is uncertain how can the contents be said the be certain?
Catholicism is idol warship Armenian Orthodox goes against a core belief that god is not human - Ain Lo Demut Haguf. I don’t know all forms of Christianity but thirteen core beliefs are instrumental in spreading the seven noahide laws.
My father a”h wrote Sefer bereishis for children it’s a text book called Ma’aseh adoneinu, he was a very big advocate for science and Torah. The missing link in evolution is very problematic, other than that my father was a very big supporter of the sciences and he had smicha from Rav Moshe Feinstein. I’m not sure where Manis Friendman got his smicha but I’m sure the rebbe is crying right now. Someone should speak to rabbi Abraham Shem tov. This man is spreading heresy.
Interesting. Heaven on earth in a practical way. Nourished in sexual union? I'd regard that a religious practice, it requires meditation to essence, to let that experience emerge. For me as a Christian it's also about letting heaven be on earth, but it's a spiritual experience, not achieved by belief but by maturity and grace I guess. I also love the kind of devinity Muslims bring into this world, a very motherly bond. I feel like we're part of a religious eco system, where you better learn how to let the different communications of God connect properly.
If Judaism is not a religion, Judas and Jesus creates the religions. I wonder if there is no calendar and time. Do they still argue what 7 days a week for.
God started a family in heaven with angels but was kind of failed when most Angeles turned rebellious so he is training human beings for heavenly life to be with him asa farmily in heaven
God did mean for us to suffer on earth when we got born. It is the evil of the world that causes suffering. I can't change my blood if I choose to go from a Christian to a Jew. So Judaism is what you believe, that make's it a religion. Because to be a Christian, you believe in God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit.

Consider THE GREAT PARTNERSHIP by the late great UK Head Rabbi Lord Jonathan Sacks
Was a blessing to interview Rabbi Manis Friedman!
Christians also talk about having a relationship with God.
Fantastic, Baruk Hashem!
Faith is the substance of things hoped for the evidence of things not seen.(Hebrews 11:1)
*AMÉN!!!*
Thank you rabbi
The oldest Vedic inscriptions are found in Syria which is north to where Abraham supposedly lived. Also the Vedas are much older than Torah. Sanatan Dharma is not confined to any particular geographical region, tribes, time or group of people.
Syria is not north of where he lived, it is exactly the area around where he lived and his people, before, and after.
Abraham came from UR, where his ancestors lived in mesopotamia, modern Iraq/Iran and he traveled to Canaan (modern day Israel), all the way to Egypt as well
Amazing.💝 Shalom
Judaism is a way of life. It is about following the Golden Rule Practice justice. Treat others as you wish to be treated. Leviticus 19. 🕎
You mean genocide others like you have been genocied !?
With all due respect, do you think we treat farmed animals the way we would want others to treat us? Please look into what happens, for example, on a chicken factory farm or on a dairy factory farm. These poor animals live miserable lives and then are shipped off to either kosher or non kosher slaughterhouses. Then ask yourself if we are keeping that mandate or just giving it lip service. And finally, would you take a young child on a field trip to a factory farm or to watch a vulnerable and innocent animal having his/her throat slashed? I don't mean to be disrespectful but I have to get people to think about this issue or nothing will ever change. Not changing will have environmental, health and social repercussions.
@@vivianchinelli8797 I may be Jewish but I'm a vegetarian.🕎
@@arlosmith2784 That's wonderful, Arlo. How long have you been a vegetarian? Do you mean to say that you don't any animal, including fish? (You'd be surprised to know how many people are not sure if a fish is an animal.) And if you don't mind me asking, how long has it been since you chose not to be vegetarian and why did you make that amazing choice?
@@vivianchinelli8797 I've been a vegetarian for 30 years. I don't eat fish or seafood. I'm not a vegan because I like dairy and eggs. My dietary preferences are not based on strictly on religion but are influenced by concerns about animal cruelty. I'm a convert to Judaism because I don't believe the Jesus myths. 🕎
Thank you for such an interesting and intelligent debate🙏 As a non believer, I believe in what Rabbi Friedman explained that we must bring God to Earth. To clean the mess he has created!!!
This concept of God has played in my mind since my teens years in a semi believing Islamic Iranian family. Those days I cal it Good years, we were a multi cultural and multi religious society, Sadly our world was shattered with rising of a cultish fundamentalist Ayatollahs regime.
Outside of Iran for years I was busy trying to educate myself and earn a living, but the thought of existence of God never left me. Till the time came to study Chinese Medicine/ philosophy. Then everything fell into place that, “I” made the God🪷
The earliest men created the unique God, part by part, after every disasters, he looked up towards the sky, because the Earth he was standing on was either rumbling with Earthquakes opening its mouth to swallow him or melted lava from the Volcano turn him to ashes or flood will carry him to the oceans or even Hurricanes will twist him around like a grain of sand. And if he was lucky and didn’t have those colossal scares in his primitive life. Then Rain wouldn’t come to feed his crops, or Hot Blazing Sun will cook him and his animals with his crops. Yes I, You, Us!!! Made the GOD. It makes sense to think that all the believes and subsequent religions stems from Hinduism( multiple Gods) then Brahmanism will develop . I agree strongly.❤️
Rabbi, I don't know if you will read this, but I was taught that Torah starts with letter Bet. The Bet (looks like a squared off C for those who don't know) means that we are not to look back, look up, look down, and only to look forward. Thus the Earth was here way long before G-d made us. Curious what you think of that.
After sleeping on it, this should explain exactly why these kids are being done as diservice and are leaving here entirely unequipped for real world discussions: th-cam.com/video/Lz6qUG-3UBc/w-d-xo.html
Rabbi's should not try to go outside their expertise, certainly hearing a Rabbi practically say "The Torah IS a history book" is something no serious student of Judaism should come close to hearing. Playing lingustic games and semantics will not help, especially among people who see these from a mile away. The truth is these conversations will take at least an hour to really explain, and these methods won't make more Ben Shapiros... they'll make the people Ben rips apart. This is an amazing topic, completely mishandled.
I think that it's part of the reason I was guided from Christianity on to Judaism (as a Noachide), there was a moment when I made my first realization.
I would go to hell forever for G-d. I love Him. I think everything in my life went badly for ten years, but now look at me, I'm in the largest room in my group-home for disabled people, I have everything I need, I can get books, I have a good internet connection and I'm reasonably comfortable.
Hashem has blessed me with a life without work in exchange for all the suffering I've been through, without even being rich and therefore not a target of lawsuits. I am happy. That's all a man can ask for really, but I've been getting so much better as technology has advanced that I may be able to work from home, which I'm really looking forward to.
Such a wise man 💎
Wonderful discussion.
I think this fails to really address what a religion is. Absolutely on point on belief, but the legitimate reason why people don't believe in HaShem is that HaShem doesn't work on command. When people say they "believe" in science, they're just trying to say "we accept scientific findings as reliable", the semantics game only works if you assume people think that deeply into what words they use and what they describe. So the thing these people want addressed is something that they actually can only address for themselves. It's not the angle to look at this from if we're in any sort of "solution-focused" approach...
Its like magical or pagan thinking - trying to manipulate and predict the world
Rabbi did not say the Brahmans are G-d. Listen to what the Rabbi said!
thanks rabbi🙏🏼
Somehow I made it through this entire video, triggered over 20 times, I think what sums up the problem with this man’s influence was that the girl at the end said she has more questions than she started with. He is not representing Torah.
*😂SAME Here!*
תודההההההההההה
Hinduism is not descendant of Judaism. This rabbi says many wrong things
The Rabbi never said Hinduism came from Judaism. He said that Hinduism is related to Abraham, not thaf it comes from Judaism.
@@shainazion4073 Hinduism is approx 5000 years old, Judaism is much younger about 1800 years old, seems like Judaism and other Abrahamic religions are related to Hinduism. So by this logic it’s Brahmin to Abraham.
@@jssingha2152 The Hindu religion is about 4000 years old, not 5000, about the time of Abraham, 1948BCE.
Ezekiel 34 is relevant here: "... therefore, O shepherds [Rabbi's and leaders of Israel], hear the words of the Lord: this is what the Sovereign Lord says: I am against the shepherds and will hold them accountable for my flock. I will remove them from tending the flock so that the shepherds can no longer feed themselves. I will rescue my flock from their mouths, and it will no longer be food for them. For this is what the Sovereign Lord says: I myself will search for my sheep and look after them"
I like the conversation but we should all want to go to heaven. It’s the most beautiful thing we could ever imagine.
Robert, do you think animal abusers go to heaven?
@@vivianchinelli8797 anyone who accepts Jesus as their Lord and savior is every right just as me to go to heaven as God loves all his children🙏🏾
Okay. Interesting. Now, another question ... does God want us to abuse animals?
@@vivianchinelli8797 you mean have a sacrifice? It’s different for the Jewish faith, but for them yes because it’s sacred and to God.
On this subject, I heartily recommend a track I discovered by accident (it appeared in my 'recommended' feed) by a British band called UNIT. The track is A Tribute To The Israeli Defence Force and it is excellent - tuneful and forceful without being bombastic combined with a lovely lyric. I know next to nothing about the group but on investigation I see they've recorded a whole batch of Jewish related tracks such as Pesach, Yom Kippur, Bar Mitzvah, Israel Is Real, The 613 Mitzvot and probably others I don’t know about yet. Some of them feature Rabbi Moshe Bryski which is definitely a recommendation in itself.
Watch online Rupert Shedrake's TED TALK "THE SCIENCE DELUSION "
My ex husband said many times: Don’t use G* d as your cosmic bellhop. Other words saying the same thing.
Verse for reference:
"No one alive will be considered righteous in His sight based on the legalistic observance of Torah commands, for what the Torah truly does is reveal to people how sinful they are."
This is a pitiable situation where the Jews are rejecting the reality of the truth.
A thought for a reasonable mind:
What happens when you follow the law and purify your soul from all evil? As stated in Leviticus 18:5:
"Keep My statutes and My judgments, for the man who does these things will live by them. I am the LORD."
You should live and not die. But why has no one been able to live and not die through the observance of the law and self-righteousness?
As mentioned in Psalms 49:7-11:
"But no one has enough to buy back a life, and you cannot bribe God. You will never have enough money to pay for your own life. You will never have enough to buy the right to live forever and keep your body out of the grave. The wise die the same as fools and stupid people. They die and leave their wealth to others. The grave will be their new home forever."
You are in your fallen flesh - remember this. You cannot deny the statement in Romans 7:15-24:
"I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do, I do not do, but what I hate, I do. And if I do what I do not want to do, I agree that the law is good. As it is, it is no longer I who do it, but it is sin living in me. For I know that good itself does not dwell in me, that is, in my sinful nature. For I have the desire to do what is good, but I cannot carry it out. For I do not do the good I want to do, but the evil I do not want to do-this I keep on doing. Now if I do what I do not want to do, it is no longer I who do it, but it is sin living in me that does it. So I find this law at work: Although I want to do good, evil is right there with me. For in my inner being I delight in God’s law; but I see another law at work in me, waging war against the law of my mind and making me a prisoner of the law of sin at work within me. What a wretched man I am! Who will rescue me from this body that is subject to death? Thanks be to God, who delivers me through Jesus Christ our Lord!"
And so, As said in Deuteronomy 30:14:
"But the word is very near you; it is in your mouth and in your heart, so that you may obey it."
Romans 10:8-10:
"But what does it say? 'The word is near you; it is in your mouth and in your heart,' that is, the word of faith we are proclaiming: that if you confess with your mouth, 'Jesus is Lord,' and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For with your heart you believe and are justified, and with your mouth you confess and are saved."
- A day is coming, You Jews will have to repent and acknowledge the truth that Jesus is the Promised Messiah (son of david / son of God)
As said in Zechariah 12:10 “And I will pour out on the house of David and the inhabitants of Jerusalem a spirit of grace and supplication. They will look on me, the one they have pierced, and they will mourn for him as one mourns for an only child, and grieve bitterly for him as one grieves for a firstborn son.
Getting healthy enough to go to heaven. Will get us healthy enough to stay on earth with God
😊
which god? its tuesday where I am so Tyr? You know Odins brother?
*Finally Judaism is accepting OR copying Jesus Christ and Christians in that; "We aren't a religion, we're a relationship." Established by the Love of God through Jesus Christ! 💕Jesus Loves You!*
Religion is a set of beliefs, that is what Manis Freidman just said, the Ramba outlines the 13 core beliefs, which are the basis of Judaism. Above the religion, we are a nation, yes, the indigenous people of Judea.
The difference between believing and knowing is like the difference between believing in a big bang where nothing exploded and became everything in space, and that you are spinning in circles at 1000 miles an hour and hurtling through an impossible expanding vacuum of space at 1/2 million miles an hour and seeing stars that are billions of miles and billions of light years away. Instead, you can KNOW what shape the earth is by standing on the seashore and using your God-given common sense. It is just as Genesis 1 says it is, small and calm and close.
*SO NOW that some understanding and Wisdom of the Torah had been exposed, are you ready to FIND OUT who's been the ONLY Man to fulfill the Torah?*
*I invite you to meet the One and Only MESSIAH that already CAME and will RETURN, know all the wonders that He did, all the prophecies in the Torah fulfilled through Him and by Him, Jesus Christ; The One that said: “The time has come,” He said. “The kingdom of God has come near. Repent and believe the good news!”
Those were the Words of the Messiah; recorded in Mark 1:15*
This is why Christianity is the ultimate form of the 1st century Judaisms. Jesus is the man who came down from heaven as the Word of God to preach the good news of forgiveness of sins by his sacrifice on the cross and the resurrection. Jesus mission was not to bring sinners to heaven as spirits, but for the bodily resurrection of believers, the reconatitution of Eden and for God to return to Eden with Jerusalem as his home ✝️
*AMÉN!!!*
Be careful what bearded men you seek knowledge from. This man is full of nonsense
It's a way of life 😀
Brahmans are people not god.
he literally said that lol
You said Abraham became jewish.
How can Prophet Abraham become jewish, when he was not before?
His mother was not jewish, neither was his father.
"O People of the Book! Why do you argue about Abraham, while the Torah and the Gospel were not revealed until long after him? Do you not understand?" holy Quran 3:65
"Abraham was neither a Jew nor a Christian, but he was one inclining toward truth, a Muslim [submitting to Allāh]. And he was not of the polytheists."holy Quran: 3:67
"And among the People of the Scripture is he who, if you entrust him with a great amount [of wealth], he will return it to you. And among them is he who, if you entrust him with a [single] coin, he will not return it to you unless you are constantly standing over him [demanding it]. That is because they say, "There is no blame upon us concerning the unlearned." And they speak untruth about Allāh while they know [it]."holy Quran: 3:75
"Absolutely! Those who honour their trusts and shun evil-surely Allah loves those who are mindful of Him" holy Quran: 3:76
The holy Bible says, 'day 1 was light, day 4 the cosmos:'='big bang:'
It literally doesn't but if you say so right
Day 4 are sun moon and stars
So if day 4 was sun and moon
How did 4 days pass if there was no sun set or sundown
It's a metaphor, it's a story of creation, not a scientific breakdown as to how particles work
7:24 “Will I be rewarded? So far it’s been 2000 years…” what happened 2000 years ago that he’s counting from?
@ianmartinesq That was the destruction of the Temple, and the exile of the Jewish people. This has been a 1954 year exile so far. We're going back now though :)
@@DrKaii But since the mitzvah was given at Sinah, wouldn’t it make more sense to count from the date the Children of Israel started practicing the law? Why is the destruction of the temple a better date to count from?
@@ianmartinesq ah, yes, you are right, we haven't had the reward that was promised to Abraham and sealed 3335 years ago at Sinai.
However, the Rabbi wasn't being precise, because the duration was not really the point - the fact that the reward hasn't come was what he was emphasising. The last 2 thousand years have proven more than else that we haven't had the Moshiach reward yet.
@@DrKaii I see. But that’s not the only reward that could hypothetically be expected, so it seems a little odd to limit the discussion to that one factor. And with that context it seems a little pointed.
@@ianmartinesq I don't follow. I didn't say anything about what the reward was in full, just that it clearly hasn't happened yet due to all the suffering
This Rabbi's etymological deconstruction of Abraham and Brahmins is excruciatingly ignorant and, therefore, racist. I am shocked that, once again, ideologues are confusing Hindu concepts with their own. The last time a westerner attempted such etymological mind jitsu with a Hindu concept, the word was "Aryan". Ultimately, though, this Rabbi fails in his own analysis because Abraham's name was not Abraham until late in his life, but Abram cannot be contorted in Brahmin. In his opening remark, this Rabbi proclaims proudly he never recieved a higher education. It's never too late, Rabbi. May I suggest studying linguistics?
After oct 7, there's been so many of these videos popping out of nowhere on my TH-cam, I've always been curious about judaism and what they believe. Now I see why they act and move as a group a certain way. They have no accountability, and they don't believe that even God can hold them accountable. They have corrupted the scripture. I am more affrim in my religion, which guides me in this world and holds me accountable to God for every action.
This rabbi sounds confuse, i bet these students are more confuse. He's speaking from his opinion and not from scripture. Misguided and Misguiding others.
He has his way of sharing the information. He is definitely not confused. It's his way of talking.
He is extremely knowledgeable.
In terms of accountability.
You make a huge assumption from one discussion.
G-d says chose life by keeping my laws etc, its not otherwise you will go to he'll. It's a relationship.He is considered a creator,our king , our father.
We behave in this manner. But all people are different.
Just as a father punishes his kid for doing something "naughty" a good father does this for his own good.
Just as a king gets to make the law and we have to obey, or we die..
It's more about the reverence we supposed to have ,not the death.
Just as a creator creates something new.
We constantly remind ourselves without G-d we are nothing and don't exist.
If that is not accountability. Then what is
@cls5355 you make no sense , just a bunch of word salad. Whether we obey or not, we will die. Yes, God is the creator. What are you saying that's new. You sound more confused than him.
It is simple. We are here temporarily. We have a choice to obey God or not. Thise who obey God go to heaven, those who don't go to hell. That is accountability, knowing that you
Will be questioned by God for every action. You can accept it or not, but that will not change reality.
*NO, is that you need to understand philosophy in order to understand theology (though isn't a requirement). It's just deep thinking translated to words. They're different ways to do it, JESUS used metaphors with even more profound TRUTHS that Jews including this Rabbi couldn't understand or REFUSE to "Believe", reason why they rejected their Messiah and found the way to get the Romans to crucify Him, WHICH by the way had been long prophecied in their own TORAH! (With all respect, isn't that awesome)*
@principleswise9749 keep scratching your head with philosophy and everything else. The truth is straight clear and easy to understand. Like i said, you can accept or not. We have free will, but that will not change anything. We will all die, and we will all have to account to God for what we did.
Well, he was completely wrong about the word Brahman having anything to do with Abraham.
How does he know that the Messiah is coming? Where is his proof?
And science is not a belief. It’s based off of proven evidence. You can’t prove the things that supposedly happened in the Torah.
It was a religion till Jews started skipping Mitzvot 9 and 10. Then it turned to something else !
The only relgion mentioned explicitly in the Coran is Islam (submission to God). According to the Coran, Abraham, Ishmael, Isaac, Jacob, Joseph, Joshua, Asra, David and his Son Salomon and Mohamed are all Muslims (obedient and Submitting to God). In the Old and New Testaments, no explicit word mentions that Judaism or Christianity are religions.
I am come to Litauen/Janischken. 🙏 Shalom und Shabbat. 🙏
Obedience is the reward.
Not every Hebrew is Yehudah. 11 tribes didn’t practice Judaism. Judaism was not the religion of Abraham
Christianity may say they come from the Torah/Tanakh, when all of Christianity pushes the Christian testaments...
This is such a lie and a distortion of the truth.
*I'm Christian, I don't buy it 100% BUT there's some fundamental truths in it.*
What should we say Avraham, our forefather, obtained by his own efforts? For if Avraham came to be considered righteous by God because of legalistic observances, then he has something to boast about. But this is not how it is before God! For what does the Tanakh say? “Avraham put his trust in God, and it was credited to his account as righteousness.”
Now the account of someone who is working is credited not on the ground of grace but on the ground of what is owed him. However, in the case of one who is not working but rather is trusting in him who makes ungodly people righteous, his trust is credited to him as righteousness.
In the same way, the blessing which David pronounces is on those whom God credits with righteousness apart from legalistic observances:
“Blessed are those whose transgressions are forgiven,
whose sins are covered over.
Blessed is the man whose sin Adonai
will not reckon against his account.”
Now is this blessing for the circumcised only? Or is it also for the uncircumcised? For we say that Avraham’s trust was credited to his account as righteousness; but what state was he in when it was so credited - circumcision or uncircumcision? Not in circumcision, but in uncircumcision! In fact, he received circumcision as a sign, as a seal of the righteousness he had been credited with on the ground of the trust he had while he was still uncircumcised. This happened so that he could be the father of every uncircumcised person who trusts and thus has righteousness credited to him, and at the same time be the father of every circumcised person who not only has had a b’rit-milah, but also follows in the footsteps of the trust which Avraham avinu had when he was still uncircumcised.
For the promise to Avraham and his “seed’’ that he would inherit the world did not come through legalism but through the righteousness that trust produces. For if the heirs are produced by legalism, then trust is pointless and the promise worthless… The reason the promise is based on trusting is so that it may come as God’s free gift, a promise that can be relied on by all the seed, not only those who live within the framework of the Torah, but also those with the kind of trust Avraham had - Avraham avinu for all of us. This accords with the Tanakh, where it says, “I have appointed you to be a father to many nations.”
Avraham is our father in God’s sight because he trusted God as the one who gives life to the dead and calls nonexistent things into existence. For he was past hope, yet in hope he trusted that he would indeed become a father to many nations, in keeping with what he had been told, “So many will your seed be.”
His trust did not waver when he considered his own body - which was as good as dead, since he was about a hundred years old - or when he considered that Sarah’s womb was dead too. He did not by lack of trust decide against God’s promises. On the contrary, by trust he was given power as he gave glory to God, for he was fully convinced that what God had promised he could also accomplish. This is why it was credited to his account as righteousness.
But the words, “it was credited to his account . . . ,” were not written for him only. They were written also for us, who will certainly have our account credited too, because we have trusted in him who raised Yeshua our Lord from the dead - Yeshua, who was delivered over to death because of our offences and raised to life in order to make us righteous. (Romans chapter 4; Emissary Sha’ul)
Thank you for this interessant Report God plessinf for Israel 🙏🙏🇨🇭🇨🇭❤️❤️
If Judiasm is not a religion or a belief system then what is it? He says it's a way of thinking based on "facts", on "truth"? The rabbi says that the Torah is the truth. Isn't that a belief? He says the ancient Jews stood in front of Har Sinai and this is a fact, not a belief. Gd created a mature world. How does he "know" these things? How does that make any sense when our empirical senses and our logical brain tell us something else? Science and Judiasm can go hand in hand and the six days can be six time periods. Why pit one against the other? We perceive reality through our limited human perspective.
Utterly beautiful. That I would be drawn to Judaism, Hinduism and Buddhism after fleeing the LDS Cult I was coercively forced into...was no coincidence then?
*DON'T die without getting to know The Way the Truth and the Life!!! Research and Study!!! Jesus Loves You ❤️*
The Rabbi is wrong.
Gen 15:6 - And he believed in the Lord; and he counted it to him for righteousness.
There is so much to pick apart here just in the first three minutes, I cannot even listen to one more word from this man.
Not really in comparison to christianity!
God doesn't need anything
This rabbi is dangerous!

Judaism is not a religion, and it is the stem of all religions. All religions borrowed the core teaching of Judaism such as Ten Commandments and today this law is implemented in courts system and moral courses in all nations except for Shabbat and No idolatry. All religions are idolatry so they are not really divine.
You defined a religion as “a set of beliefs”, and say that Judaism isn’t a religion because it’s about doing what G-d says. But if you don’t believe G-d said to do those things why are you doing them? If you actually reject the existence of G-d and you reject that G-d gave certain commands, would you follow his commands? I think not. You say, G-d is coming down and that he needs us to do certain things. Do you believe that? If so, isn’t that part of a set of beliefs? If not, why try to live like you do believe it?
Because it’s not a belief that he said those things it’s known that he came down at Sinai and said gave us those commandments as he said in the video everything in Judaism can be known, so it can be known that g-d came down to Sinai and gave us these commandments it’s not a belief that he gave them to us
@@zeveisenberger6605 That seems to me to be mere semantics. The Sinai encounter can’t been proven empirically and the good rabbi acknowledges in the video that he wouldn’t know how to substantiate it. He just says that it can be known because it happened. But he doesn’t really *know* that. He believes that. I’m sure a Buddhist would point out that altered states of mind that Buddhism offers can be detected on MRI. Christians would say the resurrection happened and is therefore knowable. Hindus claim various miracles took place and therefore should be knowable.
There are critical historians who deny that the encounter at Sinai ever took place. I wasn’t there. Nor is there hard proof. So, I don’t *know* it. I do believe it. Nor can we really say we *know* that the Torah is from G-d. That can’t be proved evidentially. You can’t even postulate it as a thing that could be *known* unless you first prove the existence of G-d, which he did not do in this sitting.
Once you know it's known, you can believe it strongly .
It's not just faith based.
There is so much knowledge in the Torah and G-dly people that can testify to this
@@zeveisenberger6605 Some people question whether Socrates existed. Is it “known” that Socrates existed? Or is it debatable? If the existence of Socrates is debatable, then how is the historicity of Sinai not also debatable?
Richard Elliot Friedman, who is a Jew and taught at the Jewish Theological Seminary, wrote, “Who Wrote the Bible?” That book expounds the documentary hypothesis. It calls into question the traditional authorship of the Tanach. If a Jew can call into question the origin of the documentary evidence in support of a historical claim about the Bronze Age, to what extent can we say that the historical claim is “known”?
@@cls5355 No speaker today observed the event at Sinai. It can’t be tested experimentally. It’s a historical proposition about an event in the Bronze Age. Many scholarly Jews like Richard Elliot Friedman call into question the traditional authorship of the Tanach. If the authorship is uncertain how can the contents be said the be certain?
Catholicism is idol warship
Armenian Orthodox goes against a core belief that god is not human - Ain Lo Demut Haguf.
I don’t know all forms of Christianity but thirteen core beliefs are instrumental in spreading the seven noahide laws.
My father a”h wrote Sefer bereishis for children it’s a text book called Ma’aseh adoneinu, he was a very big advocate for science and Torah. The missing link in evolution is very problematic, other than that my father was a very big supporter of the sciences and he had smicha from Rav Moshe Feinstein. I’m not sure where Manis Friendman got his smicha but I’m sure the rebbe is crying right now. Someone should speak to rabbi Abraham Shem tov. This man is spreading heresy.
Interesting. Heaven on earth in a practical way. Nourished in sexual union? I'd regard that a religious practice, it requires meditation to essence, to let that experience emerge. For me as a Christian it's also about letting heaven be on earth, but it's a spiritual experience, not achieved by belief but by maturity and grace I guess. I also love the kind of devinity Muslims bring into this world, a very motherly bond. I feel like we're part of a religious eco system, where you better learn how to let the different communications of God connect properly.
It was a black swan - not a kangaroo…
If Judaism is not a religion, Judas and Jesus creates the religions. I wonder if there is no calendar and time. Do they still argue what 7 days a week for.
Ok ,Jesus is not God so Jews are true about God than why I think I am wrong to be a Christian? That question itself proves Jesus is the God .
Your protestant bible says Jesus is the SON of GOD NOT GOD.
Thats couse your trinitarian a belife made up by the catholic church.
God started a family in heaven with angels but was kind of failed when most Angeles turned rebellious so he is training human beings for heavenly life to be with him asa farmily in heaven
👍That sounds not so far from the truth.
Abraham was neither a Jew nor a Christian.
We can’t prove Jesus died on the cross and rose from the dead ?
God did mean for us to suffer on earth when we got born. It is the evil of the world that causes suffering. I can't change my blood if I choose to go from a Christian to a Jew. So Judaism is what you believe, that make's it a religion. Because to be a Christian, you believe in God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit.

Hmm..I’ve had to leave several churches ⛪️ of varying denominations because they think they universe and or the earth 🌍 is only 2000 years old..Or that dinosaurs 🦕 never existed.Im sure I will struggle now as I try learning Judaism..✡️ Just not sure why people can’t think that god maybe 🤔 only spoon feed us knowledge as we needed it and as we grow so should our learning of the world he created and the texts he left behind and we should be open for expansion…

"If God speaks to you it isnt a belief."
This is nothing but wordplay. No one including Jews, KNOWS that God speaks to them or spoke to Moses. They BELIEVE that God spoke to Moses. All he is saying is that only Judiasm contains certainty. This is chauvanism writ large.
Rewards in the afterlife? Not? Read the book of prophet Daniel, last paragraph...
“O People of the Book! Our Messenger has indeed come to you, making things clear to you after an interval between the messengers so you do not say, “There has never come to us a deliverer of good news or a warner.” Now there has come to you a deliverer of good news and a warner. And Allah is Most Capable of everything.” Quran 5:19
