Yam, also known as Ym and Yaw (YHW), is the Ugaritic god of rivers and the sea. Also known as Judge Nahar ("Judge River"), he is also one of the Elohim or sons of El, the name given to the Levantine pantheon. Others dispute the existence of the alternative names, claiming it is a mistranslation of a damaged tablet. Despite linguistic overlap, theologically this god is not a part of the later sub regional monotheistic theology, but rather is part of a broader Levantine polytheism. He is also known from Egyptian sources, which present him as an enemy of Set (at the time viewed as a heroic slayer of monsters and similar to Levantine and Anatolian weather gods). Yam is the deity of primordial chaos and represents the power of the sea, untamed and raging; he is seen as ruling storms and the disasters they wreak. The seven-headed dragon Lotan is associated closely with him and the serpent is frequently used to describe him. Despite his antagonistic role in myths, Ym was sometimes invoked in theophoric names, indicating some degree of cult, which sets him apart from another similar figure, Tiamat. As Ym's myth is generally believed to be older than the Enuma Elish, it's possible Tiamat was partially patterned after him. Of all the gods, despite being the champion of El, Ym holds special hostility against Baal Hadad, son of Dagon (or El). Ym is a deity of the sea and his palace is in the abyss associated with the depths, or Biblical tehwom, of the oceans. (This is not to be confused with the abode of Mot, the ruler of the netherworld.) In Ugaritic texts, Ym's special enemy Hadad is also known as the "king of heaven" and the "first born son" of El, whom ancient Greeks identified with their god Cronus, just as Baal was identified with Zeus, Yam with Poseidon and Mot with Hades. While Baal Hadad was the lead god in Ugarit, in the Baal cycle it is Ym who is favored by El, and he even briefly rules over the other gods. Baal only rises to power after vanquishing him with the help of his allies Kothar-wa-Khasis, Astarte and Anat. Yam's ultimate fate is unclear, as the text makes references to both death and captivity, and in later sections of the myth Baal talks about Yam as if he was still alive and a possible threat. While in the past researchers, especially those belonging to the myth-ritual tradition, interpreted the myths of Baal, Ym and Mot as a representation of the cycle of seasons and thus related to fertility rites, this view is challenged in more recent scholarship as incorrect or simplistic. His name comes from the Canaanite word Yam, meaning "Sea."
You are not sincere. "We in the western world"... This is BS you spew out to brainwash the the friends of yours, the pagans & idol worshipers. May HaShem guide you back or break the snake tongue. And btw... Bin Ladin was a product of CIA, then again its not truth you are after.
@@adammooney4861 I do know "Rabbis" like Jacobson, Mikaelson etc got inferiorty complex visavi the cursed & wicked Europeans who hate his guts & despise Judaism. They want to be westerners so bad and are even ready to trix with the foundation of Judaism for their own perverted ends. The Torah teach us Jews who know the truth & engage in such manerism, antix & trix get "a reward" like no other, IF not in this life then in the grave & the afterlife.

Say, [O believers], "We have believed in Allāh and what has been revealed to us and what has been revealed to Abraham and Ishmael and Isaac and Jacob and the Descendants [al-Asbāṭ]1 and what was given to Moses and Jesus and what was given to the prophets from their Lord. We make no distinction between any of them, and we are Muslims [in submission] to Him." (Quran 2:136)✨
القرآن - سورۃ نمبر 5 المائدة آیت نمبر 70 Certainly We took a pledge from the children of Isra‘il and sent Messengers to them. Whenever a Messenger went to them with what did not meet their desires, they cried lie to some, and killed others.
According to islam hajar and ismael went to arabia when ismael was still baby, and she run through two mountains to find water for her baby and then well of zamzam etc, and ibraham and ismael both build the kabba as place of worship for believers, their group of arabs who are descendants of ismael in arabia and the arab jews also descendants of this branch and prophat mohammed come from that lineage of ismael.
Historically, your analysis is false, there is no historical link between Ishmael and Moh'm After Kedar there was no genealogically trace to Moh'm. Ishmael married an Egyptian woman choosen for him by his mother and it was after the muslim conquest by the Califs, successors to Moh'm did Egypt become part of Arabia now tell me how Ishmael is the father of the arabs? Sometimes try to remove the religious cloak covering your eyes and engage in critical/logical analysis using sources outside religion otherwise your arguments will only satisfy your religious beliefs and not logical truth.
Before Islam, Arabs didn’t have much in the way of arts and civilization, but they excelled in poetry and the preservation of tribal lineages. The Qur’an addresses the Quraysh of Mecca, calling Ibrahim ﷺ their father. Unlike ‘mother’, father was never used in the Qur’an or Sunna in a metaphorical sense. It only meant it literally. The disbelievers of Quraysh looked for a million reasons to criticize Prophet Muhammad ﷺ. Had he erroneously called Ibrahim ﷺ their ancestor, they would have jumped on that affront to their collective lineage. But they fully believed him to to be their ancestor, followed by Ismael ﷺ and Adnan. Several Hadith remind the Companions to treat the Egyptians well when they conquer them, as they have rights of kinship over them. Another Hadith relates the story of Hajar ﷺ, and Abu Huraira comments on it, “That is your mother, Hajar, o Children of the rain water”.
Great video Rabbi however, jihad translates to "struggle" or "strive" as in striving for God or exerting your upmost effort. There are various types of jihads as well such as "jihad of the soul" trying to maintain purity of soul, increase faith, and promote good while denouncing evil, for example. May God guide and bless us all.
But Jihad according to Islam, is physical fight and besiage for the cause of Islam and Allah, nothing else. Read Quran 9:29 and Quran 9:5 with tafsir ( commentaries like ibn kathir, ibn Abbas, Al jalalayn, Al tabari, Al Qourtobi etc). Logic or philosophy in Islam is unlawful ( Haram).
@@eva4adam451 are you that foolish to say that. You know nothing, you have been brainwashed by philosophy. According to the bible ( Col 2:8) and the Quran ,. Philosophy is unlawful ( Haram). Read Quran 9:29 with commentaries like Al jalalayn,. Ibn kathir, ibn. Abbas,. Al tabari etc, and get the real meaning of JJ Iihad. You think you are a muslim while you are bloody atheist !.

Both Ismail and Ishaque pbuthem are god messengers and are full of discipline and humble. Ismail brought to Arabian peninsula when he was infant and much before the birth of Ishaque pbuh.
Stop your taqiya, Ishmael and Issac both belongs to the Hebrews, nothing to do with your lunatic ideas. Abraham don't belong to mohammdens. The Abraham accord is due to a misunderstanding of the truth or the Hebrews start to believe in the lies being bombarded by mohammdens without any break. But we know that Abraham don't have nothing to do with mohammdens, arabs, mohammd and allah.
a celebration after Isaac was weaned, Sarah found the teenage Ishmael mocking her son (Genesis 21:9). She was so upset by the idea of Ishmael inheriting their wealth, that she demanded that Abraham send Hagar and her son away. She declared that Ishmael would not share in Isaac's inheritance.
How did Ishmael do such a bad job then turning Arabia into a pagan haven ? Mohammed didn't come from Ishmael n Ishmael was not a prophet only Isaacs lineage is. Let's be honest if Ishmael is father of Arabs how can so many pagan cults be there? Hubal was the querushi main God later known as Allah now. Just do ur research countless info sources.
Ishmael was Egyptian and Aramaic Married an Egyptian and lived out his life in Paran,..The Arabian peninsula was given to the 2nd Wife of Abraham Keturah her Children,... the Midianites was given the Arabian Peninsular.. So no your education is flawed ...The Midianites have a history of waring against Isreal trying to claim inheritance
Rabbi, There's a old Cherokee story that applies to what you say,"a child asks his grandfather which is stronger good or evil, the grandfather replied good and evil are like two dogs, the one that gets stronger is the one you feed." if you feed good it will become stronger.
Matthew 5:44 “But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;”
Thank you so much Rabbi for this teaching. I am a Christian who uses the complete Jewish bible. Your teaching is invaluable and I am grateful for your time and for making your teachings available to us all. Blessings from England.
@@ayinproduction617its because torah is old testament and new testament also written by jewish apostle.. thats why its jewish bible because wrote that book are jewish people. dont u get that?
I personally,an studying all 3 faiths. And have found more incommon with all 3 , Rather the then differences. And it's so beautiful. To see the love that each religion has for God.
When there is lack of Justice and transgression on someone's right mixed with deception and this happens over and over how can you reconcile and hope for peace although that's what needed to all parties. Thanks Rabbi happy new year
To me , the things I admire about Rabbi is that he is like me. I read books. I avoid confrontation. I try to respect other peoples differences and just listen. Making since of the world is hard
Rabi, when you say Ishmael was very passionate in following religion, what religion was that ? How do we call that religion? That religion is the religion of Abraham , the religion of Monotheism. In Arabic it is called Islam.
A wonderful teaching, Rabbi. I did want to clarify one thing based on what you said about Christianity: Jesus Christ said for us to "Turn the other cheek, when someone strict us." We're supposed to fight people with the Word of G-d and not physically... Therefore any "Christian" who has harmed someone by forcing people to convert or die by a physical sward , is not doing the TRUE will of our Lord Jesus Christ. This teaching on Ismael and Issiac was fantastic . Thank you, for this beautiful teaching.
@@frederickpile3599 Now,he is not answering me. Jews themselves are responsible for Jewish persecution.When Jews disobey God, God punishes them badly.God provoked people to punish Israel. Eg; Conquest of Nebuchadnezzer.
If Jesus did in fact say to "turn the other cheek), which is doubtful as most of what is attributed to him was written down & even voted on (Nicea) to construct Christianity into a marketable religion. He was NOT from the House of David as that is conferred by the father. His father was a Roman soldier who consorted with a Jewish woman. That is all verified by numerous scholarly researchers.
I just found you on TH-cam and I loved the way you told this story! Most people do not fully understand the story of Isaac and Ismael and how the conflict all began. You did a fine job illuminating these truths! Eager to hear more...
Too bad that Abraham listened to Sarah when she told him to take Hagar to wife and have a baby with her. This is when all of this mess started. Genesis 16:12 said that Ishmael will be a wild man. Thank you Abraham and Sarah for what you did. 😧😠😤😡
Why didn't he mention that When God made the promise to Abraham and Sarah that they would have a child who would inherit God's promise to Abraham , God meant a child Fathered by Abraham through Sarah , who is Isaac . God also gave Ishmael protection because he was of the blood and flesh of Abraham , but God's promise to Abraham is through Isaac .
Allah Almighty gave multiple promises. Isaac peace be upon him received the covenant of prophethood and kingship as long as they did right. Those disbelievers among them were punished by Allah Almighty in this world and the next. Allah Almighty promised Abraham peace be upon him and Ishmael peace be upon him that He would bring a messenger to their descendants who would guide them into the truth.
Correct me if I’m wrong but wasn’t it Martin Luther teaching a Roman Catholic priest used to enrage the masses of German Christians by Adolf Hitler which ignited the events which led to what’s now known as the holocaust? Now I’m Mexican and baptized and married in a Catholic Church but doesn’t the Bible say "the son to be sacrificed.God referred to Abraham’s sacrificial son as “your only son” three times:" at no time was Issac Abrahams only son but Ismail was the only son being the older child he’s was the the only for 14 years, and Isaac was born when Abraham was 100 years old all I’m saying is why would the rabbi mention 911 as if that was the point escalation to religious wars? And not talk about the holocaust where European Christians murder 6 million Jews due to different beliefs. Plus he just Ismail was the brother with the characteristics of acceptance and unconditional love which is the path to Islam so how is it that they are the Terrorist when Christianity has committed the most atrocities and multiple genocide on indigenous populations in multiple countries in the Americas ,Europe , Africa and Asia . With all due respect this rabbi seems to be manipulating biblical scripture to to support his interpretation or the word of God. But what do I know I’m just a Christian that’s seeing and understanding for the first time in my life that I have been on the wrong path my entire life🤷🏽
Thank you, dear friend, I come from a Jewish and Moslem family; my mother, Jewish, and my father, Moslem. My siblings and I witnessed and experienced the very same things you mentioned. Thank you, Sir. God bless you and keep you safe.
When one remembers that the first murder happened by one brother against his own..it exposes that the heart is exceedingly wicked. We don’t have to look at religious, racial or cultural differences as the reason, they’re simply the vehicle for expression of that evil. Thanks be to the most high, he has the answer for us all.
In the name of God, the Gracious, the Merciful. 1. Alif, Lam, Meem. 2. The revelation of the Book (Quran), without a doubt, is from the Lord of the Universe. 3. Yet they say, "He (MUHAMMAD) made it up." In fact, it is the Truth from your Lord, to warn a people who received no warner before you, that they may be guided. 4. God is He who created the heavens and the earth and everything between them in six days, and then established Himself on the Throne. Apart from Him, you have no master and no intercessor. Will you not reflect? 5. He regulates all affairs, from the heavens, to the earth. Then it ascends to Him on a Day the length of which is a thousand years by your count. 6. That is the Knower of the Invisible and the Visible, the Powerful, the Merciful. 7. He who perfected everything He created, and originated the creation of man from clay. 8. Then made his reproduction from an extract of an insignificant fluid. 9. Then He proportioned him, and breathed into him of His Spirit. Then He gave you the hearing, and the eyesight, and the brains-but rarely do you give thanks. 10. And they say, "When we are lost into the earth (dead), shall we be in a new creation (resurrected) ?" In fact, they deny the meeting ( judgment day) with their Lord. 11. Say, "The angel of death put in charge of you will reclaim you. Then to your Lord you will be returned." 12. If only you could see the guilty, bowing their heads before their Lord: "Our Lord, we have seen and we have heard, so send us back, and we will act righteously; we are now convinced." 13. Had We willed, We could have given every soul its guidance, but the declaration from Me will come true: "I will fill Hell with jinn (evil-spirits,Ghost) ,and humans, altogether." 14. So taste, because you forgot the meeting of this Day of yours; We have forgotten you; so taste the eternal torment for what you used to do. 15. They believe in Our communications, those who, when reminded of them, fall down prostrate, and glorify their Lord with praise, and are not proud. 16. Their sides shun their beds, as they pray to their Lord, out of reverence and hope; and from Our provisions to them, they give. 17. No soul knows what eye's delight awaits them-a reward for what they used to do. 18. Is someone who is faithful like someone who is a sinner? They are not equal. 19. As for those who believe and do righteous deeds, for them are the Gardens of Shelter-hospitality for what they used to do. 20. But as for those who transgressed, their shelter is the Fire. Every time they try to get out of it, they will be brought back into it, and it will be said to them, "Taste the suffering of the Fire which you used to deny." 21. We will make them taste the lesser torment, prior to the greater torment, so that they may return. 22. Who is more wrong than he, who, when reminded of his Lord's revelations, turns away from them? We will certainly wreak vengeance upon the criminals. www.quranwow.com
Awesome. God spoke to my right ear 20 times from above. First time 8.4.2015 beside a burning spider web that did nor burn. 11.17.2015..Eve Beach evening. I sat under the stars alone. That night one of the things God said, make Israel one. ( it means to bring peace and reconciliation between Jew, Christian, Muslim; cousins by Abraham. God did not tell this to me just for me. I'm just a pauper born March 11th in Bethlehem. Lchaim. When God asked me, what side of the blade are you on. I answered, the side of the righteous, my words are my sword. God has shown me the prescient visions behind my eyes that came to be. I'll teach you some Aramaic. Schlama means peace. Malkuth means heaven. Hubba means love.

@rabbi Simon Jacobson at Meaningful Life Center : I have a few questions that I would like to expound upon and ask for your response. Sarah, the first wife was ok with Prophet Abraham marrying Hagar so that he would have an heir. At some point, she changed her mind and said that Ismael would not share the inheritance with Isaac and that the father should send her away. My question is, what was the inheritance being debated ? Was it money, land, or prophethood? I believe that it had nothing to do with material goods but rather the inheritance was that of being the chosen people from a spiritual perspective. The question is, Did Abraham tell Sarah that the descendants of Ismael would also be spiritual leaders for mankind? This ties into the covenant that Allah ( Ella) made with Abraham that through him, he would bless mankind. Furthermore, we see that Abraham ratified a contract with his creator. What was that covenant ? Circumcision and sacrifice? Why do modern-day Jewish practitioners no longer observe the practice of sacrifice? The Bible further states that Abraham was to sacrifice his "Only" son at the time of the covenant. What did the word "only" imply ? Does it mean that only one child existed at the request to sacrifice the child ? If that is the case, could the writers of the Bible have chosen to replace the name of Ishmael with that of Isaac out of mutual rivalry? Ismael and Abraham were circumcised on the same day, and Isaac was not yet born. What was the significance of circumcision and was circumcision done after the command to sacrifice the lad had been fulfilled ? This would mean that Ismael was the one to be sacrificed since he was about twelve years old, and Isaac was not yet born at the time the covenant was ratified. That would explain why Sarah did not want Ishmael to share in the inheritance. But the promise of the Almighty was going to be fulfilled irrespective of whether it was liked or not. The right of the first born was Ishmael's, according to Illaha. The kingdom of Illaha was to be given to another nation, and that nation was the Muslims and Islam appears to be the only religion that is following the Abrahamic faith as it was prescribed by illaha in terms of praying, sacrificing during the holy months and performing circumcision. It also appears more inclusive than other Abrahamic faiths and simpler to understand. Religion should not be based on mysticism or celestial observations.
@@MrFofana1 Exactly right as per the Quraan n authentic Islaamic tradition. Quraan asks people of the book ie Jews n Christians(all denominations) to come to what is common between them that is to Worship n Supplicate to One n only Creator n Sustainer of the universe ie God=Allah(in Arabic)!!

I think it's great that we're talking about these things. But I think like you said that this problem is deeper than we even understand because it is on a spiritual level and that is that the non Jews have not been accepted by the Jew in a positive way. We are viewed as being bad. And unfortunately that unacceptance has translated as hate. We are spiritual beings and our thoughts translate to the other. We all need to become love and see the love because love is the true Jew. We are one another. ❤️
I listened to your sermon only because I like Rabbi Tovi but you are not him at all! He has something you lack immensely and that is a spine, truthfulness, honour, reliability and I could go on!! Firstly the Muslim world is not Arab ha ha ha ha I mean a secondary school kid knows this!! You see Islam is not based on race it’s based on pure monotheism and righteousness in word and deed!! There are Muslims from every race of the world! Yes the prophet Muhammad عليه السلام is a direct descendant of the Prophet Ismaaeel عليه السلام as is the tribe of Quraish as a whole! So not All Arabs are descendants of Ismaeel عليه السلام although today a large percentage are ! In fact the direct descendants of the Prophet Muhammad عليه الصلاة والسلام are in their millions!! As for your claim about the reason for Hajars emigration being because of Ibrahim’s wife Sarah saying what you said then that’s pure lies and slander against Ismaeel عليه السلام because it was God Almighty who ordered Ibrahim عليه السلام to take his son and his mother to Mecca because that was the plan of Allah! Yes it was Sarah’s jealousy that caused it but it was Allahs command. Ibrahim عليه السلام took his family to Mecca and built the house of God the Ka’bah or the mosque or synagogue in your world! Then he returned and built the temple in Jerusalem with his Son Ishaaq! Incidentally the direction of the prayer in the beginning of Islam was Jerusalem! The Prophet Muhammad longed for it to become Mecca but Allah made him wait until the day it was revealed to him whilst leading the prayer to face Mecca and so part of the prayer was towards Jerusalem and the other Mecca hence that mosque is called the mosque of the two prayer directions! You accuse us Muslims and Islam of only accepting all out war with others!! This is either extreme ignorance on your part or a big fat lie and you know it!! The Jews of Madinah became equal citizens in Arabia as per the constitution of Madinah! THEY WERE EQUAL CITIZENS AND DID NOT PAY ANY TRIBUTE!! The tribute or Jizya is only taken from those who have attacked the Muslims militarily! It’s a punishment for them and a demonstration of submission to the laws of the land which gives them citizenship rights and pension rights rights NEVER IMAGINED BEFORE THIS TIME OR AFTER FOR 1300 years! And so your claims of intolerance are just lies! The Prophet عليه السلام thought that at the very least the Jews would give him some support but the showed on treachery! Attempted assassinations and acts of treason that killed many Muslims!! After this treacherous behaviour Allah ordered that they must pay tribute if the want to live in the Muslim world! And live in the Muslim world is exactly what they did! Infact your Jewish golden age took place is Muslim Spain where Jews reached the top in politics and ministerial positions as well as Jewish scholarship as a whole! You see for Huroof years the Jews lived protected by the ones you claim wanted to harm them!! It was the Christians who butchered the Jews and the Jews left Spain to live in Morocco with the Muslims!! What’s more is the second Caliph of Islam Umar bin Khattab رضي الله عنه when he conquered Syria and Palestine WITHOUT ANY FIGHTING OR BLOODSHED because the Christians invited him in. He saw there were no Jews in Jerusalem and the holy land and so he TRANSPORTED THOUSANDS OF JEWS TO RESETTLE IN THE REGION AFTER THE CHRISTIANS HAD BANNISHED THEM!! Now you are waffling on about the Abraham accords and all of that but let me just say this! There can’t be any peace until you stop lying and come to the table seeking only truth, justice and fairness! The jews were living in Palestine for 1400 years next to their Arab Christians and Muslims and Samaritans in peace and harmony until Zionism brought terror and treachery to the holy land!! There are Orthodox Jews in Israel who stand with the Palestinians! By Allah if they were to enter Ghazza with their full orthodox clothing on you would see Hamas hug and embrace them along with the whole of Ghaza! We Muslims are not all Arabs and we do not hate jews! We just find it very hard to trust you because you’ve stabbed us so many times in the back! You can suck up to the Christians but it is us Muslims who have cared about your welfare for the last 1400 years despite acts of treason and treachery! Your claim that Palestinian resistance is terrorism is extremely biased and until you learn to view us as human beings instead of Goyim then there will never be peace! Rabbi Tovi is a real source of biblical knowledge and fairness and justice!

And when you talk about Prophets of Allah you have to give evidence and but it on the screen or at least mention book history not just talk because this is not and easy topic to talk about . And your entire video you have not mentioned any references.
Ishmael and Isaac were never God’s prophets, especially Ishmael.. just a rebel and somewhat of a bastard by definition. And why do you pretend that Abraham was about t sacrifice Ishmael when in fact it was Isaac.. pointing the the coming of Jesus Christ the Messiah. Stop fooling yourself and many more around the world with a false manmade religion, trying to subdue and topple the true Judeo-Christian religion wherein only the Bible is the holy book of God.
We must not hate and kill each other. We must Avoid it not to follow Satan. Mutual Respect and understanding is key ! We all love GOD almighty and must submit to Him only! Stay Blessed
Thank you for your words of wisdom. Listening to you gives me good advise. It helps me to find a way back to the peace and security i felt when i was a child. My parents taught me to appreciate the differences as a possibility to learn from each other. No matter how many differences there are there will be always more things that connect all living beings. My family is christian and i grew up as one, but i had a hard time and started to grew more radical when i was a young adult. This caused my believe to crush and me loosing hope. Ending with me searching for something to hold on for nearly two third of my life. Only a few years ago i found the courage to read the bible again and i started to read it more as a philosophical book like i did as a child rather than a book of strict laws like i did as a young adult. But i noticed i need to hear the views of others in order to keep it healthy for me because it is like drinking too much wine on empty stomach if i don't.
Hello, there! I am a Muslim. I was very impressed listening to your preach, dear Rabbi. I kindly thank you for your teaching on balance inside us, butterfly effect. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
I taught religion for 20 years in Catholic schools and have tried to convey what you have said in my classes. You have explained it so much better. I stopped at Abraham and blamed him for the conflict for sending Ishmael into the desert but I now understand it was not Abraham's fault for each of us have free will and Ishmael did not have the discipline he needed. Thank you Rabbi. I feel all schools should teach biblical studies so these rabble rousers would understand better.
@@PoisonShot20You’re completely wrong as Ishmael was the favoured one amongst the two as from the children of Ishmael came the best of the children of Adam and the finality of prophethood. The name of Ishmael was given by God and it includes the name of God (El), the meaning of Ishmael is “God will hear” so you calling him Ishmael negates your point.
Allah the Almighty declared in the Glorious Quran: And who turns away from the religion of Abraham (Islamic Monotheism) except him who befools himself? Truly, We chose him in this world and verily, in the Hereafter he will be among the righteous. When his Lord said to him: "Submit (be a Muslim)!" He said: "I have submitted myself (as a Muslim) to the Lord of the Alamin (mankind, jinn and all that exists)." And this (submission to Allah, Islam) was enjoined by Abraham upon his sons and by Jacob, (saying): "O my sons! Allah has chosen for you the true religion, then die not except in the Faith of Islam (as Muslims -- Islamic Monotheism)." Or were you witnesses when death approached Jacob? When he said unto his sons: "What will you worship after me?" They said: "We shall worship you (Ilah (God - Allah) the Ilah (God) of your fathers, Abraham, Ishmael, Isaac, One Ilah (God), and to Him we submit (in Islam)." That was a nation who had passed away. They shall receive the reward of what they earned and you of what you earn. And you will not be asked of what they used to do. They say: "Be Jews or Christians, and then you will be guided." Say (to them O Muhammad): "Nay (we follow) only the religion of Abraham, Hanifan (Islamic monotheism, i.e. to worship none but Allah Alone, and he was not of the Al Mushrikeen (those who worshipped others along with Allah)." Say (O Muslims): "We believe in Allah and that which has been sent down to us and that which had been sent down to Abraham, Ishmael, Isaac, Jacob and to Al Asbat (the twelve sons of Jacob), and that which has been given to Moses and Jesus and that which has been given to the Prophets from their Lord. We make no distinction between any of them, and to Him we have submitted (in Islam)." So if they believe in the like of that which you believe, then they are rightly guided, but if they turn away, then they are only in opposition. So, Allah, will suffice you against them. He is the All Hearer, the All Knower. (Our Sibghah, religion is) the Sibghah (religion) of Allah (Islam) and which Sibghah (religion) can be better than Allah's. We are His worshippers.
Hind sight being 20/20. Do you think God heard Ismael? Do you think God struggled with Israel? Did not all Abrams sons populate the Arab peninsula and keep the faith in God? Isn't it the same God all over the world?
I don't think so Ismael married an Egyptian and had an Egyptian mother, he probably may have lived in Egypt and became Egyptian (african) not far far away from Egypt to become a totally different race called Arabs (non African)
These poor old Rabbis miss so much not knowing Christ and all his teachings. These poor old guys only know 1/2 of Gods plans . Their stubbornness will ultimately cause the same problem again as to why they had to leave their homeland. Zachariah 13
@Phobic to Everything Arabs came from Abraham's other songs with his second marriage. Amd Islam is the decendants of Ishmael. Even Muhammed claimed to be a decendamt of Ishmael. And it seems as if God (El) did hear him, his ppl have spread over the world like fire and had been the predominat ppl of the middle east for close to 1500 years. And obviously God Wrestles with Israel. They fall away from him and have to lose their country for a time. He'll the lost their country for almost 2000 years. But they're still in God's graces though.
@Walter Bailey what do you say happened to the Israelites that came before Jesus? Did the get to go to heaven? At what point in time do humans start going to heaven with the religion God gave them?was it Abraham? Moses? Solomon? Jesus? Muhammed? Are other t ppls able to access God?
You lying about the reality of this situation of palestine verse Israel, you do know the fight against zionism is not religious war but over land, the jews did exist all around the muslim world and lived peacefully among muslims while in Europe this wasnt the case for them, so who the one who caused this situation the muslims or the zionists 🙄
You're right. It's a political fight over the Holy Land. Most Jewish sages disagrees with the Zionists as G-D only directed Jews to retake the Holy Land when Messiah comes. Not before
The J3wish tradition was whoever was the first born was the inheritance but because Ismael didn’t came from Sarah they rejected him and put him as a wild beast. The same with Prophet Muhammad peace be upon them both. Because he was an Arab prophet they rejected him except for few J3ws . Allāh is very clear in his Quran : The Yahood and the Nazareth will never be happy with him until you believe in what they believe. I’m sure if Muhammad was from the children’s Of Israel they would accept him as a prophet but since he wasn’t then there’s no more to say.
But the good qualities of Ismael could have benefited Isaac. Sara and Ibrahim were wise believers. I think it wasn't because of a conflict or a possible bad influence on Isaac. I think it was simply a plan decided by the creator to separate them so that they can both found their nations.
Abraham and Sarah were beginning believers. Sarah especially had a hard time believing she could have a baby, even G*d told her she would. Had she trusted G*d completely, she would never have suggested Abraham and Hagar have the son.
Yea, I thought Hagar was sent away before Isaac was born, so how could Ishmael have been a bad influence on an unborn child Isaac. I smell something fishy
@@ayorayor8002 According to the bible, Hagar left twice, the first time on her own, that's when G*d sent her back. The second time at Sarah's insistence, that's when G*d told Abraham to listen to his wife.
This video sounds more philosophical than religious, and religion is not philosophy, religion is about obeying the God Almighty, Abraham (pbuh) was the believer, the friend of God, and he did only what God told him to do, that story about Hagar and Ishmael (pbuh) is totally different in Islam, Hagar is the 2nd wife of Abraham (pbuh) and Ishmael (pbuh) is the first born, the God Almighty told to Abraham to send away his wife Hagar and Ishmael where the God Almighty took care of them and gave them the source of water called ZamZam, Ishmael was the first born son, so the God Almighty wanted to test Abraham (pbuh), he asked him to sacrifice his the only son Ishmael and he obeyed, at old age Abraham had his the only son Ishmael, Isaac (pbuh) wasn't born yet, so for Abraham it made the test harder and Greater. Ishmael and Izaac were prophets of the God Almighty, they obeyed him, so there is No such thing as Ishmael (pbuh) had bad influence or sometimes some people even dare to say he was Wicked, total nonsense!
@@dorandacolbert5973The whole Bible is an inversion of the truth. Ishmael was the first born, first circumcised of Abraham. Ishmael was never kicked out. Abraham settled Makkah in Arabia
Shlom. I am christian, learned so much by this study. You talked about boundaries, most essential thing to be a good children of God. Thank you so much.
This rabbi would turn his back if moses was here today. They started worshipping a calf made by their own hands while moses was gone for the 40 nights. Today, they are no different
Rabbi, I would like to highlight the antisemitism statement in the Bible about prophet Ismael (pbuh). It is also untrue that Ismael is not part of God's covenant. “And he will be a wild man; his hand will be against every man, and every man's hand against him; and he shall dwell in the presence of all his brethren.” Genesis 16:10-12 In Samaritan Torah: והוא יהיה פרא אדם-ידו בכל ויד כל בו ועל פני כל אחיו ישכן In those days, there were no vowels, the meanings have changed: wild man/donkey = פֶּרֶא (H6501) should be fruitful פָּרָא (H6500) against should be all/in all כֹּל (H3605) So, the real meaning should be: "And he will be fertile of a man, His hand will be with everyone, and everyone's hand will be with him, and he will live among all his brothers." Genesis 16:10-12 This is so true in history. Islam saved world Jewry - read the article by David J Wasserstein is the Eugene Greener Jr Professor of Jewish Studies at Vanderbilt University.
Thank you Rabbi for your insight and inspiration. How do we judge Sarah for banishing a single mother with a child? The story has a meaningful lesson we can’t ignore. Shabbat Shalom
And that how human are, hate breed hate just look how it transfer to Middle East conflict. Being cordial and making peace goes a long way. It why the bible commanded that ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no other commandment greater than these.”
@@LM-qv7cy Six days shall work be done, but on the seventh day there shall be to you an holy day, a sabbath of rest to the LORD: whosoever doeth work therein shall be put to death.
Deuteronomy 21:15-17-15-17 When a man has two wives, one loved and the other hated and they both give him sons, but the firstborn is from the hated wife, at the time he divides the inheritance with his sons he must not treat the son of the loved wife as the firstborn, cutting out the son of the hated wife, who is the actual firstborn. No, he must acknowledge the inheritance rights of the real firstborn, the son of the hated wife, by giving him a double share of the inheritance: that son is the first proof of his virility; the rights of the firstborn belong to him.
Beautifull thaughts comes from good intention, as a born muslim, i applaud your sholership and thaughtfull arguements about universal brotherhood and inclosiveness not division,, you said it well,,
Yahweh is just. Sarah disinherited her stepson but God compensated by giving Ishmaels progeny huge empires from Morocco to Central Asia to indonesia. That is just. If ishmaels progeny are following the holy covenants of circumcision, sacrifice, the law of Moses, and honouring the Meshiach then they also have a share in Hebron and the Holy Land. There was and is no quarrel between the adult Isaac and his brother Ishmael. Yahweh protected Hagar and ishmael as a sign to Abraham. If isaac and ishmael wish to live in brotherly love and peace, Sarah's disapproval doesnt matter.
@@vickyquackk1369 narrow minded you are.We muslims are brothers with jews but not zionists,with christians but not Baal.You can continue live in saudi arabia or afhganistan.
Ismael and Isaac didn’t even grow up in the same household together. Sarah was still barren and Ismael was living in the desert where Zam Zam water sprouted up from beneath them to keep them alive in the deep desert environment in which Abraham was commanded by God to leave them their alone. The Kabba was built by Ismael and his father Abraham they passed the tests of God. Isaac wasn’t born during this time and they never new each other.
"For it is written, that Abraham had two sons, the one by a bondmaid, the other by a freewoman. But he who was of the bondwoman was born after the flesh; but he of the freewoman was by promise. Which things are an allegory: for these are the two covenants; the one from the mount Sinai, which engendereth to bondage, which is Hagar. For this Hagar is mount Sinai in Arabia, and answereth to Jerusalem which now is, and is in bondage with her children. But Jerusalem which is above is free, which is the mother of us all. For it is written, Rejoice, thou barren that bearest not; break forth and cry, thou that travailest not; for the desolate hath many more children than she which hath a husband. Now we, brethren, as Isaac was, are the children of promise. But as then he that was born after the flesh persecuted him that was born after the Spirit, even so it is now. Nevertheless what saith the Scripture? Cast out the bondwoman and her son: for the son of the bondwoman shall not be heir with the son of the freewoman. So then, brethren, we are not children of the bondwoman, but of the free." (Galatians 4:22-31)
Genesis 16:12 concerning Ishmael : "He will be a wild donkey of a man; his hand will be against everyone and everyone’s hand against him, and he will live in hostility toward all his brothers.” NIV
When the Roman Christians expelled the house of Issac from the lands of G-d, it was the house of Ishmael who answered. Indeed the love has no bounds. We need coexistence not conflict between brothers. We all serve and submit ourselves to the same higher power. We need peace and union. (May peace and blessings be with our prophets)
Great question and one that is not well-known. Jacob (Yaakov) was called Israel (Yisrael) after the all-night struggle with God in order to have his answer.Since Jacob was male his new name would also naturally reflect his masculinity.Male (and female) names were derived from things that were directly associated with their acts or deeds.Male names were meant to lead,guide and direct the rest of their race of people.A masculine person would never carry a feminine name,title or moniker because that was seen as wrong and at best- unproductive because that cannot work! Males have their roles to play as well as females in society. Anytime that you see El in a name (always at the end of a human one) it means roughly- "From God!" so study Hebrew names and you'll change your paradigm! (your way of seeing things!)
I COMPLETELY agree. This is exactly that understanding I came to and it is VERY hard for me when trying to explain it to others on "the stage". So my BIG thanks to you for your ability to formulate the core of not only a person's inside conflict but ( and as the same level of the importance) the core of world's conflict. Be blessed for your wisdom.
I just subscribed. Years ago I worked with AOL as a host+ and oversaw the Judaism chat room. We had 3 (diverse in strictness) Rabbis that would give lessons regularly. The education I was lucky to receive! This reminds me of that time. Thank you
[Deuteronomy 18:20, KJV] But the prophet, which shall presume to speak a word in my name, which I have not commanded him to speak, or that shall speak in the name of other gods, even that prophet shall die. Did Muhammad spoke false prophecy which isn't from God? He did at least once. Did Muhammad spoke prophecy in the name of other gods? He did at least once in the name of al-Lat, al-Uzza, and Manat. Muslims, if you will say that Deuteronomy 18:18 is a prophecy for Muhammad, read through verse 20. Don't stop at verse 18.

The Jews were waiting for the promised Messiah, when prophet Mohammad come in they asked him all the questions and he has answered all of them. The only reason Jews did not accept prophet Mohammad as that long time promised Messiah because he was not from Banu Israel meaning he was not Jew but from Ban Quraish meaning Arabs.
clearly because God had a covenant to Jacob that he will bless the nation thru his bloodline.. its in the tohra mohamad is never the messiah because God already chosen his people the Israelites. he never choose other nation and he never choose arabic people. before you read Quran why don’t you read the tohra first you are partaking with the history of israel but in a gossiper view point. you got it all wrong
@@spontaneouscat6791 In the Gospel, Jesus warned his followers that after him, the Advocate (Comforter in older translations) would come, preaching about him as the Spirit of Truth. "Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you. And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment: Of sin, because they believe not on me; Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, and ye see me no more; Of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged. I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now. Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come." John 16:7-13 (King James Version): _________________________________________________________ Jesus also previously warned that when the Spirit of Truth comes, this Spirit of truth will speak through a prophet, so he speaks in these verses in connection with the spirit of delusion and false prophets, meaning the Spirit of Truth will come through a righteous prophet, which is evident from the narrative. "Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God: And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world." [John 4:1] __________________________________________________________ So What the Quran says about this, about which many Muslims do not think what this verse is about: "Say, [O Muhammad], "The Pure Spirit [Gabriel] has brought it down from your Lord in truth to make firm those who believe and as guidance and good tidings to the Muslims." [Quran 16:102] Also, it is said: "That is Jesus, the son of Mary - the word of truth about which they are in dispute. It is not [befitting] for Allah to take a son; exalted is He! When He decrees an affair, He only says to it, 'Be,' and it is. [Jesus said], 'And indeed, Allah is my Lord and your Lord, so worship Him. That is a straight path.'" [Quran 19:34-36] __________________________________________________________ Ending the post with words from the Gospel: "And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent. [ John 17:3 (King James Version) ] Jesus warned his followers that after him will come a warner a teaching with spirit from God that will turn the truth and the Law back to earth and he will witness about him (Jesus as a prophet) so You will follow him (Christians) and Allah know best.

Sweet story that unfortunately misses the truth about Ishmael who the Bible says was a contentious person full of strife. From the pages of the Bible I cannot find the love attributed to brother Ishmael.
“Truth about Ishmael”, is that as a young child, he and his mother, were left for dead, with resources, or even water, by his “god fearing” father, at the command of “god”! I’m sure, that you would’ve grown up to be a well balanced, and compassionate person, given those circumstances! If you can believe that Ishmael was a “contentious person full of strife”, without also seeing/acknowledging the HUGE PROBLEMS, with the actions/philosophy of “god”, and Abraham, you should be able to acknowledge that you are simply an indoctrinated person. I understand how indoctrination works, because I was one, for over four decades. I now use my brain, when considering religious viewpoints, just like I do, in EVERY other area of life.
@@donnaanderson2846 so what you are saying is that God was unjust and not compassionate? What about the angel who was sent to supply water? What about the blessings that God promise Ishmael just because he came from Abraham loins? Did you also consider that Abraham had no choice than allow serahs decisions? If Ishmael was to fight, he should finght his mum for been such a ride woman because had she been humble,she would have raised Ishmael in Abraham house. Don't you think that Ishmael anger is repeating what happened between Cain and Abel? Cain killed Abel out of anger despite warmed of God. So Ishmael would receive the reward of anger and and murder. This whole thing is a game of spirits which is another major picture bigger than the Brain...
Ismael and Isaac were pure prophets and perfect people from God they were never in conflict with each other it the followers who came much much later who drifted away from the teachings of the prophets of God and Satan took them to his camp and wanted to divide the faith which is one and only one God sends all prophets with the same message
Shabbat Shalom Jabbi, Thank you for this very insightful teaching. It was uplifting and thought provoking. I will pursue more studies in this line of truth/ interpretation. Toda rava! Shalom Aleichem ❤️
I appreciate the fact the Rabbi saying that Ishmael was the first born son from wife Hajar. Then later miraculously, Sara at an old age gave birth to Isaac. It makes sense.
9/11/01 Was my 40th birthday. Islam says, life begins at 40. After 9/11, I read the Quran and found it VERY insightful, though presented in a much different way.
I don’t think Muslim/Arab extremist are the only extremist in Middle East there are also Jewish extremists that is why you have settlers In Palestinian Territories which is the biggest reason there is no peace between Israel and Palestinians Jewish extremists terrorize Palestinian civilians by the way I am a African Muslim I have no connection to ismail because Islam is not a ethnicity it’s a universal religious belief in my view the Palestinian and Israeli conflict is a land conflict and they don’t have a good leader leadership .
Some muslim have a good leadership like hammas. They sacrifice theirs own siblings ( Palestine) to get their own benefits by using them. I wish a good Muslim to open their eyes and see. Why hammas leader childrens have a good education and a good life ? They not supper like some innocent people's in palestine. Why the Palestine people's die because of them?Do you allow your own people die because hammas want to archive what they aim?
Peace to anyone willing to accept...If what the Rabbi say is true then why do Jews believe they are the Chosen ones?...Chosen for what?...why creating conflict with separation?...divide and rule have been the modus operandi of the Jews since their Zionistic Organisation came into being and because of their believe that they are the only one's worthy of the Love of The Creator. Can Rabbi please answer this simple straightforward Question..."When did the conflict started?...caus the Treu Jews, Muslims and Christians have been living in harmony for thousands of years. Any Jew that believe in an Israeli-state is in direct conflict with himself and in obstinate rebellion against the Treu Teachings of Monotheism. Every Jew knows that but they are too arrogant to admit it because of their core believe that they are Chosen one's and better then other human beings. The Only Treu Jews are the the one's that know the Truth about the reason why Allah have chosen them above other nations at the time of Revelation and because they broke their Covenant with Allah that's why most Jews don't believe in an Israeli-state...Allah warned them that if they don't stop their Rebellion that Allah will destroy and replace them and that's exactly what is happening in the Arab-world right now. Everyone is replaceable if the Will of Allah are not being adhered to. If I ofendid anyone with my opinion I humbly apologise🤲
Israel was “Chosen” to be a light and priests to the nations, but they lost the purpose for their existence and instead took “Chosen” to mean they better that the rest of mankind, no matter what they do.
As a none practicing muslim who is fascinated by our relationship with our creator and how he selected his people. The covenant Jews made with Allah is essentially for Jews to always serve Allah, they are like monks who should only dedicate themselves to Allah and noting more. Muslims on the other hand are to bring mankind to Allah, to expand and spread his message. We have different missions.
Well said Rabbi. The thing is, while it is true that the struggle to find balance between permissiveness and restrictiveness has long existed in both macro and micro levels, there is a third dynamic complication thrown into the mix and this is Satan's diabolic interference in all the players, all of us and I can't imagine coping with our complexities without our faith in our Almighty. I am grateful to be Catholic as we have our Blessed Virgin Mother who also helps thwart demonic influences, the Mother of God whom Satan fears most.
Respected sir, Shalom. I am a Muslim from the Arabian Peninsula. I appreciate your comment regarding the story of Ishmael and Isaac. I simply want to bring to your kind attention that you are a learned man and in the Arabic language we do not have a word for Infidel. This word was actually coined by the Crusaders declaring their holy war on the Muslims. The alternate word for battle in Arabic is HARB. Please note, the word (Infidel) is not an Arabic or a Muslim term...Thank you.
Hi everyone! Thank you for watching! What did you think?
Yam, also known as Ym and Yaw (YHW), is the Ugaritic god of rivers and the sea. Also known as Judge Nahar ("Judge River"), he is also one of the Elohim or sons of El, the name given to the Levantine pantheon. Others dispute the existence of the alternative names, claiming it is a mistranslation of a damaged tablet. Despite linguistic overlap, theologically this god is not a part of the later sub regional monotheistic theology, but rather is part of a broader Levantine polytheism. He is also known from Egyptian sources, which present him as an enemy of Set (at the time viewed as a heroic slayer of monsters and similar to Levantine and Anatolian weather gods).
Yam is the deity of primordial chaos and represents the power of the sea, untamed and raging; he is seen as ruling storms and the disasters they wreak. The seven-headed dragon Lotan is associated closely with him and the serpent is frequently used to describe him. Despite his antagonistic role in myths, Ym was sometimes invoked in theophoric names, indicating some degree of cult, which sets him apart from another similar figure, Tiamat. As Ym's myth is generally believed to be older than the Enuma Elish, it's possible Tiamat was partially patterned after him.
Of all the gods, despite being the champion of El, Ym holds special hostility against Baal Hadad, son of Dagon (or El). Ym is a deity of the sea and his palace is in the abyss associated with the depths, or Biblical tehwom, of the oceans. (This is not to be confused with the abode of Mot, the ruler of the netherworld.) In Ugaritic texts, Ym's special enemy Hadad is also known as the "king of heaven" and the "first born son" of El, whom ancient Greeks identified with their god Cronus, just as Baal was identified with Zeus, Yam with Poseidon and Mot with Hades.
While Baal Hadad was the lead god in Ugarit, in the Baal cycle it is Ym who is favored by El, and he even briefly rules over the other gods. Baal only rises to power after vanquishing him with the help of his allies Kothar-wa-Khasis, Astarte and Anat. Yam's ultimate fate is unclear, as the text makes references to both death and captivity, and in later sections of the myth Baal talks about Yam as if he was still alive and a possible threat. While in the past researchers, especially those belonging to the myth-ritual tradition, interpreted the myths of Baal, Ym and Mot as a representation of the cycle of seasons and thus related to fertility rites, this view is challenged in more recent scholarship as incorrect or simplistic.
His name comes from the Canaanite word Yam, meaning "Sea."

According to islam hajar and ismael went to arabia when ismael was still baby, and she run through two mountains to find water for her baby and then well of zamzam etc, and ibraham and ismael both build the kabba as place of worship for believers, their group of arabs who are descendants of ismael in arabia and the arab jews also descendants of this branch and prophat mohammed come from that lineage of ismael.

Historically, your analysis is false, there is no historical link between Ishmael and Moh'm After Kedar there was no genealogically trace to Moh'm. Ishmael married an Egyptian woman choosen for him by his mother and it was after the muslim conquest by the Califs, successors to Moh'm did Egypt become part of Arabia now tell me how Ishmael is the father of the arabs? Sometimes try to remove the religious cloak covering your eyes and engage in critical/logical analysis using sources outside religion otherwise your arguments will only satisfy your religious beliefs and not logical truth.
Before Islam, Arabs didn’t have much in the way of arts and civilization, but they excelled in poetry and the preservation of tribal lineages. The Qur’an addresses the Quraysh of Mecca, calling Ibrahim ﷺ their father. Unlike ‘mother’, father was never used in the Qur’an or Sunna in a metaphorical sense. It only meant it literally. The disbelievers of Quraysh looked for a million reasons to criticize Prophet Muhammad ﷺ. Had he erroneously called Ibrahim ﷺ their ancestor, they would have jumped on that affront to their collective lineage. But they fully believed him to to be their ancestor, followed by Ismael ﷺ and Adnan. Several Hadith remind the Companions to treat the Egyptians well when they conquer them, as they have rights of kinship over them. Another Hadith relates the story of Hajar ﷺ, and Abu Huraira comments on it, “That is your mother, Hajar, o Children of the rain water”.

Great video Rabbi however, jihad translates to "struggle" or "strive" as in striving for God or exerting your upmost effort. There are various types of jihads as well such as "jihad of the soul" trying to maintain purity of soul, increase faith, and promote good while denouncing evil, for example.

Both Ismail and Ishaque pbuthem are god messengers and are full of discipline and humble.
Ismail brought to Arabian peninsula when he was infant and much before the birth of Ishaque pbuh.
Stop your taqiya, Ishmael and Issac both belongs to the Hebrews, nothing to do with your lunatic ideas. Abraham don't belong to mohammdens. The Abraham accord is due to a misunderstanding of the truth or the Hebrews start to believe in the lies being bombarded by mohammdens without any break. But we know that Abraham don't have nothing to do with mohammdens, arabs, mohammd and allah.
a celebration after Isaac was weaned, Sarah found the teenage Ishmael mocking her son (Genesis 21:9). She was so upset by the idea of Ishmael inheriting their wealth, that she demanded that Abraham send Hagar and her son away. She declared that Ishmael would not share in Isaac's inheritance.
Dont spread lies.
Logically thinking it is not possible for a lady to carry her child through tough weather conditions upto Saudi Arabia.
How did Ishmael do such a bad job then turning Arabia into a pagan haven ? Mohammed didn't come from Ishmael n Ishmael was not a prophet only Isaacs lineage is. Let's be honest if Ishmael is father of Arabs how can so many pagan cults be there? Hubal was the querushi main God later known as Allah now. Just do ur research countless info sources.
Ishmael was Egyptian and Aramaic
Married an Egyptian and lived out his life in Paran,..The Arabian peninsula was given to the 2nd Wife of Abraham Keturah her Children,... the Midianites was given the Arabian Peninsular.. So no your education is flawed ...The Midianites have a history of waring against Isreal trying to claim inheritance

There's a old Cherokee story that applies to what you say,"a child asks his grandfather which is stronger good or evil, the grandfather replied good and evil are like two dogs, the one that gets stronger is the one you feed." if you feed good it will become stronger.

Jews themselves are responsible for Jewish persecution.When Jews disobey God, God punishes them badly.God provoked people to punish Israel.
Eg; Conquest of Nebuchadnezzer.
If Jesus did in fact say to "turn the other cheek), which is doubtful as most of what is attributed to him was written down & even voted on (Nicea) to construct Christianity into a marketable religion. He was NOT from the House of David as that is conferred by the father. His father was a Roman soldier who consorted with a Jewish woman. That is all verified by numerous scholarly researchers.

Thank you Rabbi. As a Catholic I'm very interested in all biblical stories.
God bless you sir.
Correct me if I’m wrong but wasn’t it Martin Luther teaching a Roman Catholic priest used to enrage the masses of German Christians by Adolf Hitler which ignited the events which led to what’s now known as the holocaust? Now I’m Mexican and baptized and married in a Catholic Church but doesn’t the Bible say "the son to be sacrificed.God referred to Abraham’s sacrificial son as “your only son” three times:" at no time was Issac Abrahams only son but Ismail was the only son being the older child he’s was the the only for 14 years, and Isaac was born when Abraham was 100 years old all I’m saying is why would the rabbi mention 911 as if that was the point escalation to religious wars? And not talk about the holocaust where European Christians murder 6 million Jews due to different beliefs. Plus he just Ismail was the brother with the characteristics of acceptance and unconditional love which is the path to Islam so how is it that they are the Terrorist when Christianity has committed the most atrocities and multiple genocide on indigenous populations in multiple countries in the Americas ,Europe , Africa and Asia . With all due respect this rabbi seems to be manipulating biblical scripture to to support his interpretation or the word of God. But what do I know I’m just a Christian that’s seeing and understanding for the first time in my life that I have been on the wrong path my entire life🤷🏽
Thank you, dear friend, I come from a Jewish and Moslem family; my mother, Jewish, and my father, Moslem. My siblings and I witnessed and experienced the very same things you mentioned. Thank you, Sir. God bless you and keep you safe.

In the name of God, the Gracious, the Merciful.
1. Alif, Lam, Meem.
2. The revelation of the Book (Quran), without a doubt, is from the Lord of the Universe.
3. Yet they say, "He (MUHAMMAD) made it up." In fact, it is the Truth from your Lord, to warn a people who received no warner before you, that they may be guided.
4. God is He who created the heavens and the earth and everything between them in six days, and then established Himself on the Throne. Apart from Him, you have no master and no intercessor. Will you not reflect?
5. He regulates all affairs, from the heavens, to the earth. Then it ascends to Him on a Day the length of which is a thousand years by your count.
6. That is the Knower of the Invisible and the Visible, the Powerful, the Merciful.
7. He who perfected everything He created, and originated the creation of man from clay.
8. Then made his reproduction from an extract of an insignificant fluid.
9. Then He proportioned him, and breathed into him of His Spirit. Then He gave you the hearing, and the eyesight, and the brains-but rarely do you give thanks.
10. And they say, "When we are lost into the earth (dead), shall we be in a new creation (resurrected) ?" In fact, they deny the meeting
( judgment day) with their Lord.
11. Say, "The angel of death put in charge of you will reclaim you. Then to your Lord you will be returned."
12. If only you could see the guilty, bowing their heads before their Lord: "Our Lord, we have seen and we have heard, so send us back, and we will act righteously; we are now convinced."
13. Had We willed, We could have given every soul its guidance, but the declaration from Me will come true: "I will fill Hell with jinn (evil-spirits,Ghost)
,and humans, altogether."
14. So taste, because you forgot the meeting of this Day of yours; We have forgotten you; so taste the eternal torment for what you used to do.
15. They believe in Our communications, those who, when reminded of them, fall down prostrate, and glorify their Lord with praise, and are not proud.
16. Their sides shun their beds, as they pray to their Lord, out of reverence and hope; and from Our provisions to them, they give.
17. No soul knows what eye's delight awaits them-a reward for what they used to do.
18. Is someone who is faithful like someone who is a sinner? They are not equal.
19. As for those who believe and do righteous deeds, for them are the Gardens of Shelter-hospitality for what they used to do.
20. But as for those who transgressed, their shelter is the Fire. Every time they try to get out of it, they will be brought back into it, and it will be said to them, "Taste the suffering of the Fire which you used to deny."
21. We will make them taste the lesser torment, prior to the greater torment, so that they may return.
22. Who is more wrong than he, who, when reminded of his Lord's revelations, turns away from them? We will certainly wreak vengeance upon the criminals.

@rabbi Simon Jacobson at Meaningful Life Center : I have a few questions that I would like to expound upon and ask for your response. Sarah, the first wife was ok with Prophet Abraham marrying Hagar so that he would have an heir. At some point, she changed her mind and said that Ismael would not share the inheritance with Isaac and that the father should send her away. My question is, what was the inheritance being debated ? Was it money, land, or prophethood? I believe that it had nothing to do with material goods but rather the inheritance was that of being the chosen people from a spiritual perspective. The question is, Did Abraham tell Sarah that the descendants of Ismael would also be spiritual leaders for mankind? This ties into the covenant that Allah ( Ella) made with Abraham that through him, he would bless mankind. Furthermore, we see that Abraham ratified a contract with his creator. What was that covenant ? Circumcision and sacrifice? Why do modern-day Jewish practitioners no longer observe the practice of sacrifice? The Bible further states that Abraham was to sacrifice his "Only" son at the time of the covenant. What did the word "only" imply ? Does it mean that only one child existed at the request to sacrifice the child ? If that is the case, could the writers of the Bible have chosen to replace the name of Ishmael with that of Isaac out of mutual rivalry? Ismael and Abraham were circumcised on the same day, and Isaac was not yet born. What was the significance of circumcision and was circumcision done after the command to sacrifice the lad had been fulfilled ? This would mean that Ismael was the one to be sacrificed since he was about twelve years old, and Isaac was not yet born at the time the covenant was ratified. That would explain why Sarah did not want Ishmael to share in the inheritance. But the promise of the Almighty was going to be fulfilled irrespective of whether it was liked or not. The right of the first born was Ishmael's, according to Illaha. The kingdom of Illaha was to be given to another nation, and that nation was the Muslims and Islam appears to be the only religion that is following the Abrahamic faith as it was prescribed by illaha in terms of praying, sacrificing during the holy months and performing circumcision. It also appears more inclusive than other Abrahamic faiths and simpler to understand. Religion should not be based on mysticism or celestial observations.

I think it's great that we're talking about these things. But I think like you said that this problem is deeper than we even understand because it is on a spiritual level and that is that the non Jews have not been accepted by the Jew in a positive way.

I listened to your sermon only because I like Rabbi Tovi but you are not him at all! He has something you lack immensely and that is a spine, truthfulness, honour, reliability and I could go on!!
Firstly the Muslim world is not Arab ha ha ha ha I mean a secondary school kid knows this!! You see Islam is not based on race it’s based on pure monotheism and righteousness in word and deed!! There are Muslims from every race of the world! Yes the prophet Muhammad عليه السلام is a direct descendant of the Prophet Ismaaeel عليه السلام as is the tribe of Quraish as a whole! So not All Arabs are descendants of Ismaeel عليه السلام although today a large percentage are !
In fact the direct descendants of the Prophet Muhammad عليه الصلاة والسلام are in their millions!!
As for your claim about the reason for Hajars emigration being because of Ibrahim’s wife Sarah saying what you said then that’s pure lies and slander against Ismaeel عليه السلام because it was God Almighty who ordered Ibrahim عليه السلام to take his son and his mother to Mecca because that was the plan of Allah! Yes it was Sarah’s jealousy that caused it but it was Allahs command. Ibrahim عليه السلام took his family to Mecca and built the house of God the Ka’bah or the mosque or synagogue in your world!
Then he returned and built the temple in Jerusalem with his Son Ishaaq! Incidentally the direction of the prayer in the beginning of Islam was Jerusalem! The Prophet Muhammad longed for it to become Mecca but Allah made him wait until the day it was revealed to him whilst leading the prayer to face Mecca and so part of the prayer was towards Jerusalem and the other Mecca hence that mosque is called the mosque of the two prayer directions!
You accuse us Muslims and Islam of only accepting all out war with others!!
This is either extreme ignorance on your part or a big fat lie and you know it!!
The Jews of Madinah became equal citizens in Arabia as per the constitution of Madinah! THEY WERE EQUAL CITIZENS AND DID NOT PAY ANY TRIBUTE!!
The tribute or Jizya is only taken from those who have attacked the Muslims militarily! It’s a punishment for them and a demonstration of submission to the laws of the land which gives them citizenship rights and pension rights rights NEVER IMAGINED BEFORE THIS TIME OR AFTER FOR 1300 years!
And so your claims of intolerance are just lies! The Prophet عليه السلام thought that at the very least the Jews would give him some support but the showed on treachery! Attempted assassinations and acts of treason that killed many Muslims!! After this treacherous behaviour Allah ordered that they must pay tribute if the want to live in the Muslim world!
And live in the Muslim world is exactly what they did! Infact your Jewish golden age took place is Muslim Spain where Jews reached the top in politics and ministerial positions as well as Jewish scholarship as a whole! You see for Huroof years the Jews lived protected by the ones you claim wanted to harm them!!
It was the Christians who butchered the Jews and the Jews left Spain to live in Morocco with the Muslims!!
What’s more is the second Caliph of Islam Umar bin Khattab رضي الله عنه when he conquered Syria and Palestine WITHOUT ANY FIGHTING OR BLOODSHED because the Christians invited him in. He saw there were no Jews in Jerusalem and the holy land and so he TRANSPORTED THOUSANDS OF JEWS TO RESETTLE IN THE REGION AFTER THE CHRISTIANS HAD BANNISHED THEM!!
Now you are waffling on about the Abraham accords and all of that but let me just say this! There can’t be any peace until you stop lying and come to the table seeking only truth, justice and fairness! The jews were living in Palestine for 1400 years next to their Arab Christians and Muslims and Samaritans in peace and harmony until Zionism brought terror and treachery to the holy land!! There are Orthodox Jews in Israel who stand with the Palestinians! By Allah if they were to enter Ghazza with their full orthodox clothing on you would see Hamas hug and embrace them along with the whole of Ghaza!
We Muslims are not all Arabs and we do not hate jews! We just find it very hard to trust you because you’ve stabbed us so many times in the back!
You can suck up to the Christians but it is us Muslims who have cared about your welfare for the last 1400 years despite acts of treason and treachery!
Your claim that Palestinian resistance is terrorism is extremely biased and until you learn to view us as human beings instead of Goyim then there will never be peace!
Rabbi Tovi is a real source of biblical knowledge and fairness and justice!

اسماعيل ليس أب العرب، اسماعيل استعرب عندما عاش مع العرب.

لهذا أعطى الله الميثاق و وراثة الأرض للعرب كما ترون حاليا و عبر التاريخ
Ishmael is not the father of the Arabs, he was Arabized after he lived with arabs.
Arabs are accepting of all other semetic peoples and many became arabs over the past 7000 yrs.
That is why god gave the covenant to Ishmael to "inherit the land", as you see now and throughout history through his son Mohammed PBUH and on our father Abraham PBUH
I agree with the Rabbi about paychological projection, the strict maternal jewish inheritance tells a lot about envy.

I can relate to it all. I’ve been the black sheep of my entire family for as long as I’ve been alive. It doesn’t mean they’re wrong and I’m right or vice versa. But I do see that we’re two extremes and it’s all about learning how to maintain balance. It’s the hardest thing to do and as long as no one is willing to do what’s necessary to create balance of all things, unfortunately not much will change.
It's a pecking order...one is usually pecked on more than others according to my university lessons. Sorry it's you

I'm not Jewish, but I enjoyed your message.
This is The worst Explantation about two prophets of Allah.When you lie about the history of a chosen prophets of Allah and you say the reason why Arab and Israel are fighting each other is because their forefathers Isaac and Ishmael where not get along each other and there start this. What a joke . I Really laughed. Ishmael and Isaac where two Prophets of Allah. Don't hide the truth , and remember you are not talking about an ordinary people, you are talking about Prophets of Allah. Be careful to put this on a political Thing. And when you talk about Prophets of Allah you have to give evidence and but it on the screen or at least mention book history not just talk because this is not and easy topic to talk about . And your entire video you have not mentioned any references.
They were the killers of God's messengers. They even ordered Jesus to be crucified
@@m.padlan3925 Jesus was a mere human. No one cares about him
Ishmael and Isaac were never God’s prophets, especially Ishmael.. just a rebel and somewhat of a bastard by definition. And why do you pretend that Abraham was about t sacrifice Ishmael when in fact it was Isaac.. pointing the the coming of Jesus Christ the Messiah. Stop fooling yourself and many more around the world with a false manmade religion, trying to subdue and topple the true Judeo-Christian religion wherein only the Bible is the holy book of God.
We must not hate and kill each other. We must Avoid it not to follow Satan.

Thank you for your words of wisdom.
Listening to you gives me good advise.
It helps me to find a way back to the peace and security i felt when i was a child.
My parents taught me to appreciate the differences as a possibility to learn from each other.
No matter how many differences there are there will be always more things that connect all living beings.
My family is christian and i grew up as one, but i had a hard time and started to grew more radical when i was a young adult.
This caused my believe to crush and me loosing hope.
Ending with me searching for something to hold on for nearly two third of my life.
Only a few years ago i found the courage to read the bible again and i started to read it more as a philosophical book like i did as a child rather than a book of strict laws like i did as a young adult. But i noticed i need to hear the views of others in order to keep it healthy for me because it is like drinking too much wine on empty stomach if i don't.
Good and smart parents
wine is strictly prohibited in all three Abrahamic religion

I taught religion for 20 years in Catholic schools and have tried to convey what you have said in my classes. You have explained it so much better. I stopped at Abraham and blamed him for the conflict for sending Ishmael into the desert but I now understand it was not Abraham's fault for each of us have free will and Ishmael did not have the discipline he needed. Thank you Rabbi. I feel all schools should teach biblical studies so these rabble rousers would understand better.

The subject of the video starts at about 7:30
Beautiful explained, never listen before any Rabbi speaking so beautifully and heart touching.
Dump he thinks we are Ishmaels 😂
Allah the Almighty declared in the Glorious Quran: And who turns away from the religion of Abraham (Islamic Monotheism) except him who befools himself? Truly, We chose him in this world and verily, in the Hereafter he will be among the righteous.
When his Lord said to him: "Submit (be a Muslim)!" He said: "I have submitted myself (as a Muslim) to the Lord of the Alamin (mankind, jinn and all that exists)."
And this (submission to Allah, Islam) was enjoined by Abraham upon his sons and by Jacob, (saying): "O my sons! Allah has chosen for you the true religion, then die not except in the Faith of Islam (as Muslims -- Islamic Monotheism)."
Or were you witnesses when death approached Jacob? When he said unto his sons: "What will you worship after me?" They said: "We shall worship you (Ilah (God - Allah) the Ilah (God) of your fathers, Abraham, Ishmael, Isaac, One Ilah (God), and to Him we submit (in Islam)."
That was a nation who had passed away. They shall receive the reward of what they earned and you of what you earn. And you will not be asked of what they used to do.
They say: "Be Jews or Christians, and then you will be guided." Say (to them O Muhammad): "Nay (we follow) only the religion of Abraham, Hanifan (Islamic monotheism, i.e. to worship none but Allah Alone, and he was not of the Al Mushrikeen (those who worshipped others along with Allah)."
Say (O Muslims): "We believe in Allah and that which has been sent down to us and that which had been sent down to Abraham, Ishmael, Isaac, Jacob and to Al Asbat (the twelve sons of Jacob), and that which has been given to Moses and Jesus and that which has been given to the Prophets from their Lord. We make no distinction between any of them, and to Him we have submitted (in Islam)."
So if they believe in the like of that which you believe, then they are rightly guided, but if they turn away, then they are only in opposition. So, Allah, will suffice you against them. He is the All Hearer, the All Knower.
(Our Sibghah, religion is) the Sibghah (religion) of Allah (Islam) and which Sibghah (religion) can be better than Allah's. We are His worshippers.
Hind sight being 20/20. Do you think God heard Ismael? Do you think God struggled with Israel? Did not all Abrams sons populate the Arab peninsula and keep the faith in God? Isn't it the same God all over the world?
"PEACE IN CHRIST. " channel.
I don't think so Ismael married an Egyptian and had an Egyptian mother, he probably may have lived in Egypt and became Egyptian (african) not far far away from Egypt to become a totally different race called Arabs (non African)
These poor old Rabbis miss so much not knowing Christ and all his teachings. These poor old guys only know 1/2 of Gods plans . Their stubbornness will ultimately cause the same problem again as to why they had to leave their homeland. Zachariah 13
@Phobic to Everything Arabs came from Abraham's other songs with his second marriage. Amd Islam is the decendants of Ishmael. Even Muhammed claimed to be a decendamt of Ishmael. And it seems as if God (El) did hear him, his ppl have spread over the world like fire and had been the predominat ppl of the middle east for close to 1500 years. And obviously God Wrestles with Israel. They fall away from him and have to lose their country for a time. He'll the lost their country for almost 2000 years. But they're still in God's graces though.
@Walter Bailey what do you say happened to the Israelites that came before Jesus? Did the get to go to heaven? At what point in time do humans start going to heaven with the religion God gave them?was it Abraham? Moses? Solomon? Jesus? Muhammed? Are other t ppls able to access God?
You lying about the reality of this situation of palestine verse Israel, you do know the fight against zionism is not religious war but over land, the jews did exist all around the muslim world and lived peacefully among muslims while in Europe this wasnt the case for them, so who the one who caused this situation the muslims or the zionists 🙄
You're right. It's a political fight over the Holy Land.
Most Jewish sages disagrees with the Zionists as G-D only directed Jews to retake the Holy Land when Messiah comes. Not before
The J3wish tradition was whoever was the first born was the inheritance but because Ismael didn’t came from Sarah they rejected him and put him as a wild beast. The same with Prophet Muhammad peace be upon them both. Because he was an Arab prophet they rejected him except for few J3ws . Allāh is very clear in his Quran : The Yahood and the Nazareth will never be happy with him until you believe in what they believe. I’m sure if Muhammad was from the children’s Of Israel they would accept him as a prophet but since he wasn’t then there’s no more to say.
But the good qualities of Ismael could have benefited Isaac. Sara and Ibrahim were wise believers. I think it wasn't because of a conflict or a possible bad influence on Isaac. I think it was simply a plan decided by the creator to separate them so that they can both found their nations.
Abraham and Sarah were beginning believers. Sarah especially had a hard time believing she could have a baby, even G*d told her she would. Had she trusted G*d completely, she would never have suggested Abraham and Hagar have the son.
Yea, I thought Hagar was sent away before Isaac was born, so how could Ishmael have been a bad influence on an unborn child Isaac. I smell something fishy
@@ayorayor8002 According to the bible, Hagar left twice, the first time on her own, that's when G*d sent her back. The second time at Sarah's insistence, that's when G*d told Abraham to listen to his wife.
This video sounds more philosophical than religious, and religion is not philosophy, religion is about obeying the God Almighty, Abraham (pbuh) was the believer, the friend of God, and he did only what God told him to do, that story about Hagar and Ishmael (pbuh) is totally different in Islam, Hagar is the 2nd wife of Abraham (pbuh) and Ishmael (pbuh) is the first born, the God Almighty told to Abraham to send away his wife Hagar and Ishmael where the God Almighty took care of them and gave them the source of water called ZamZam, Ishmael was the first born son, so the God Almighty wanted to test Abraham (pbuh), he asked him to sacrifice his the only son Ishmael and he obeyed, at old age Abraham had his the only son Ishmael, Isaac (pbuh) wasn't born yet, so for Abraham it made the test harder and Greater. Ishmael and Izaac were prophets of the God Almighty, they obeyed him, so there is No such thing as Ishmael (pbuh) had bad influence or sometimes some people even dare to say he was Wicked, total nonsense!
@@dorandacolbert5973The whole Bible is an inversion of the truth.
Ishmael was the first born, first circumcised of Abraham. Ishmael was never kicked out. Abraham settled Makkah in Arabia

Don't say children of god. Why do you have to twist words.
Rabbi, I would like to highlight the antisemitism statement in the Bible about prophet Ismael (pbuh). It is also untrue that Ismael is not part of God's covenant.
“And he will be a wild man; his hand will be against every man, and every man's hand against him; and he shall dwell in the presence of all his brethren.” Genesis 16:10-12
In Samaritan Torah:
והוא יהיה פרא אדם-ידו בכל ויד כל בו ועל פני כל אחיו ישכן
In those days, there were no vowels, the meanings have changed:
wild man/donkey = פֶּרֶא (H6501) should be fruitful פָּרָא (H6500)
against should be all/in all כֹּל (H3605)
So, the real meaning should be:
"And he will be fertile of a man, His hand will be with everyone, and everyone's hand will be with him, and he will live among all his brothers." Genesis 16:10-12
This is so true in history. Islam saved world Jewry - read the article by David J Wasserstein is the Eugene Greener Jr Professor of Jewish Studies at Vanderbilt University.
Thank you Rabbi for your insight and inspiration. How do we judge Sarah for banishing a single mother with a child? The story has a meaningful lesson we can’t ignore. Shabbat Shalom
shalom aleichem you mean?
That sounds like sandy arabs!!
And that how human are, hate breed hate just look how it transfer to Middle East conflict. Being cordial and making peace goes a long way. It why the bible commanded that ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no other commandment greater than these.”
There is no blame on Sarah, her disposition as 1st Wife is her right and Allah knows best.

rights of the real firstborn, the son of the hated wife, by giving
him a double share of the inheritance: that son is the first
proof of his virility; the rights of the firstborn belong to him.

Very very grateful for your enlightened ideas. 🙏🙏❤️
Yahweh is just. Sarah disinherited her stepson but God compensated by giving Ishmaels progeny huge empires from Morocco to Central Asia to indonesia. That is just.
If ishmaels progeny are following the holy covenants of circumcision, sacrifice, the law of Moses, and honouring the Meshiach then they also have a share in Hebron and the Holy Land. There was and is no quarrel between the adult Isaac and his brother Ishmael. Yahweh protected Hagar and ishmael as a sign to Abraham. If isaac and ishmael wish to live in brotherly love and peace, Sarah's disapproval doesnt matter.

Ismael and Isaac didn’t even grow up in the same household together. Sarah was still barren and Ismael was living in the desert where Zam Zam water sprouted up from beneath them to keep them alive in the deep desert environment in which Abraham was commanded by God to leave them their alone.
The Kabba was built by Ismael and his father Abraham they passed the tests of God.
Isaac wasn’t born during this time and they never new each other.
"For it is written, that Abraham had two sons, the one by a bondmaid, the other by a freewoman. But he who was of the bondwoman was born after the flesh; but he of the freewoman was by promise. Which things are an allegory: for these are the two covenants; the one from the mount Sinai, which engendereth to bondage, which is Hagar. For this Hagar is mount Sinai in Arabia, and answereth to Jerusalem which now is, and is in bondage with her children. But Jerusalem which is above is free, which is the mother of us all. For it is written,
Rejoice, thou barren that bearest not; break forth and cry, thou that travailest not; for the desolate hath many more children than she which hath a husband. Now we, brethren, as Isaac was, are the children of promise. But as then he that was born after the flesh persecuted him that was born after the Spirit, even so it is now. Nevertheless what saith the Scripture? Cast out the bondwoman and her son: for the son of the bondwoman shall not be heir with the son of the freewoman. So then, brethren, we are not children of the bondwoman, but of the free." (Galatians 4:22-31)
Genesis 16:12 concerning Ishmael : "He will be a wild donkey of a man; his hand will be against everyone and everyone’s hand against him, and he will live in hostility toward all his brothers.” NIV
he will be a wild donkey of a man ? What does this mean

When the Roman Christians expelled the house of Issac from the lands of G-d, it was the house of Ishmael who answered. Indeed the love has no bounds. We need coexistence not conflict between brothers. We all serve and submit ourselves to the same higher power. We need peace and union.

I have a question: The name "Israel" at the time it was given to "Jacob", was it a masculine or a feminine name?
Great question and one that is not well-known. Jacob (Yaakov) was called Israel (Yisrael) after the all-night struggle with God in order to have his answer.Since Jacob was male his new name would also naturally reflect his masculinity.Male (and female) names were derived from things that were directly associated with their acts or deeds.Male names were meant to lead,guide and direct the rest of their race of people.A masculine person would never carry a feminine name,title or moniker because that was seen as wrong and at best- unproductive because that cannot work! Males have their roles to play as well as females in society. Anytime that you see El in a name (always at the end of a human one) it means roughly- "From God!" so study Hebrew names and you'll change your paradigm! (your way of seeing things!)
They were both prophets, and prophets are Gods messengers to us, both were disciplined and loving
I COMPLETELY agree. This is exactly that understanding I came to and it is VERY hard for me when trying to explain it to others on "the stage". So my BIG thanks to you for your ability to formulate the core of not only a person's inside conflict but ( and as the same level of the importance) the core of world's conflict. Be blessed for your wisdom.

[Deuteronomy 18:20, KJV] But the prophet, which shall presume to speak a word in my name, which I have not commanded him to speak, or that shall speak in the name of other gods, even that prophet shall die.

Did Muhammad spoke prophecy in the name of other gods? He did at least once in the name of al-Lat, al-Uzza, and Manat.

Asalamualaikum Rabbi, thank you for presenting this
The Jews were waiting for the promised Messiah, when prophet Mohammad come in they asked him all the questions and he has answered all of them. The only reason Jews did not accept prophet Mohammad as that long time promised Messiah because he was not from Banu Israel meaning he was not Jew but from Ban Quraish meaning Arabs.
clearly because God had a covenant to Jacob that he will bless the nation thru his bloodline.. its in the tohra mohamad is never the messiah because God already chosen his people the Israelites. he never choose other nation and he never choose arabic people. before you read Quran why don’t you read the tohra first you are partaking with the history of israel but in a gossiper view point. you got it all wrong
@@spontaneouscat6791 In the Gospel, Jesus warned his followers that after him, the Advocate (Comforter in older translations) would come, preaching about him as the Spirit of Truth.
"Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you. And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment: Of sin, because they believe not on me; Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, and ye see me no more; Of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged. I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now. Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come."
John 16:7-13 (King James Version):
_________________________________________________________
Jesus also previously warned that when the Spirit of Truth comes, this Spirit of truth will speak through a prophet, so he speaks in these verses in connection with the spirit of delusion and false prophets, meaning the Spirit of Truth will come through a righteous prophet, which is evident from the narrative.
"Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God: And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world." [John 4:1]
__________________________________________________________
So What the Quran says about this, about which many Muslims do not think what this verse is about:
"Say, [O Muhammad], "The Pure Spirit [Gabriel] has brought it down from your Lord in truth to make firm those who believe and as guidance and good tidings to the Muslims." [Quran 16:102]
Also, it is said:
"That is Jesus, the son of Mary - the word of truth about which they are in dispute. It is not [befitting] for Allah to take a son; exalted is He! When He decrees an affair, He only says to it, 'Be,' and it is. [Jesus said], 'And indeed, Allah is my Lord and your Lord, so worship Him. That is a straight path.'" [Quran 19:34-36]
__________________________________________________________
Ending the post with words from the Gospel:
"And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.
[ John 17:3 (King James Version) ]
Jesus warned his followers that after him will come a warner a teaching with spirit from God that will turn the truth and the Law back to earth and he will witness about him (Jesus as a prophet) so You will follow him (Christians)
and Allah know best.

@@englishexpert1989 A scientific theory is not a fact!! Say, have they found the messing link between the apes and humans yet?😀😀😀
@@eelmohamed - A scientific theory is a fact. You know nothing of science. There is no such thing as Missing link in fossil records
Now I feel that Abraham should not have listened to Sarah and keep his two sons if one son is rejected and sent away he will be angry and suffer
And leave a collective conscience of being rejected unloved uncared unfairness which will lead rebellion and war I think
I think there's no connection 😕
I am learning so much that I never knew. Was never explained in depth like this. Thank you.
Show your confidence in your religion, science or reason. I suggest you with respect that you follow the Holy Quran, if you don't agree with me? then after death liar will take other's and his whole nation's sins, do you agree? Be brave now.
By the all holy books and medical science dead mankind is non communicable and if you call dead personalities or prophets along with Allah (God) and seek help from dead mankind then you will Never go to the heaven and if you don't agree with me then after death liar will take other's and his whole nation's sins, do you agree? Be brave now?
(Don't relate pseudo Muslims with Holy Quran.)
According to the Holy Quran ahmadi kadyanis are agents of Satan, if you don't agree with me then after death liar will take other's and his whole nation's sins, do you agree? Be brave now?

Who was taken to the ALTAR to be sacrificed…….i demand the truth
a really beautiful interpretation of the event to our lives! A big THANKS!
Sweet story that unfortunately misses the truth about Ishmael who the Bible says was a contentious person full of strife. From the pages of the Bible I cannot find the love attributed to brother Ishmael.
Yes, according to Paul, not Jesus
@@m.padlan3925 show it's from Paul? It's clearly written in the old testament about him. Anyways am waiting for your proof
“Truth about Ishmael”, is that as a young child, he and his mother, were left for dead, with resources, or even water, by his “god fearing” father, at the command of “god”! I’m sure, that you would’ve grown up to be a well balanced, and compassionate person, given those circumstances! If you can believe that Ishmael was a “contentious person full of strife”, without also seeing/acknowledging the HUGE PROBLEMS, with the actions/philosophy of “god”, and Abraham, you should be able to acknowledge that you are simply an indoctrinated person. I understand how indoctrination works, because I was one, for over four decades. I now use my brain, when considering religious viewpoints, just like I do, in EVERY other area of life.
@@donnaanderson2846 so what you are saying is that God was unjust and not compassionate? What about the angel who was sent to supply water? What about the blessings that God promise Ishmael just because he came from Abraham loins?
Did you also consider that Abraham had no choice than allow serahs decisions?
If Ishmael was to fight, he should finght his mum for been such a ride woman because had she been humble,she would have raised Ishmael in Abraham house.
Don't you think that Ishmael anger is repeating what happened between Cain and Abel? Cain killed Abel out of anger despite warmed of God.
So Ishmael would receive the reward of anger and and murder.
This whole thing is a game of spirits which is another major picture bigger than the Brain...
@@kcee.7225 ismael was first born so ishmael must be respected humans should RESpect every prophet
Ismael and Isaac were pure prophets and perfect people from God they were never in conflict with each other it the followers who came much much later who drifted away from the teachings of the prophets of God and Satan took them to his camp and wanted to divide the faith which is one and only one God sends all prophets with the same message
Shabbat Shalom Jabbi, Thank you for this very insightful teaching. It was uplifting and thought provoking. I will pursue more studies in this line of truth/ interpretation. Toda rava!
Shalom Aleichem ❤️
Ishmaels trips will never contact with isreals tripes uthink he talks about the real story about our father?
Creating a better world I agree 👍
I appreciate the fact the Rabbi saying that Ishmael was the first born son from wife Hajar. Then later miraculously, Sara at an old age gave birth to Isaac. It makes sense.
9/11/01 Was my 40th birthday. Islam says, life begins at 40. After 9/11, I read the Quran and found it VERY insightful, though presented in a much different way.
I don’t think Muslim/Arab extremist are the only extremist in Middle East there are also Jewish extremists that is why you have settlers In Palestinian Territories which is the biggest reason there is no peace between Israel and Palestinians Jewish extremists terrorize Palestinian civilians by the way I am a African Muslim I have no connection to ismail because Islam is not a ethnicity it’s a universal religious belief in my view the Palestinian and Israeli conflict is a land conflict and they don’t have a good leader leadership .
Sooner or later it will be destroyed too
You have been lied too Israel is defending itself God bless you Layla 🙏❤️✝️
Some muslim have a good leadership like hammas. They sacrifice theirs own siblings ( Palestine) to get their own benefits by using them.
I wish a good Muslim to open their eyes and see. Why hammas leader childrens have a good education and a good life ? They not supper like some innocent people's in palestine. Why the Palestine people's die because of them?Do you allow your own people die because hammas want to archive what they aim?
Peace to anyone willing to accept...If what the Rabbi say is true then why do Jews believe they are the Chosen ones?...Chosen for what?...why creating conflict with separation?...divide and rule have been the modus operandi of the Jews since their Zionistic Organisation came into being and because of their believe that they are the only one's worthy of the Love of The Creator. Can Rabbi please answer this simple straightforward Question..."When did the conflict started?...caus the Treu Jews, Muslims and Christians have been living in harmony for thousands of years. Any Jew that believe in an Israeli-state is in direct conflict with himself and in obstinate rebellion against the Treu Teachings of Monotheism. Every Jew knows that but they are too arrogant to admit it because of their core believe that they are Chosen one's and better then other human beings. The Only Treu Jews are the the one's that know the Truth about the reason why Allah have chosen them above other nations at the time of Revelation and because they broke their Covenant with Allah that's why most Jews don't believe in an Israeli-state...Allah warned them that if they don't stop their Rebellion that Allah will destroy and replace them and that's exactly what is happening in the Arab-world right now. Everyone is replaceable if the Will of Allah are not being adhered to. If I ofendid anyone with my opinion I humbly apologise🤲
Israel was “Chosen” to be a light and priests to the nations, but they lost the purpose for their existence and instead took “Chosen” to mean they better that the rest of mankind, no matter what they do.
The Jews are chosen people of God because from them arise the Messiah , Jesus the Savior of mankind
As a none practicing muslim who is fascinated by our relationship with our creator and how he selected his people. The covenant Jews made with Allah is essentially for Jews to always serve Allah, they are like monks who should only dedicate themselves to Allah and noting more. Muslims on the other hand are to bring mankind to Allah, to expand and spread his message. We have different missions.
Wise words! Thank you Rabbi!
Well said Rabbi. The thing is, while it is true that the struggle to find balance between permissiveness and restrictiveness has long existed in both macro and micro levels, there is a third dynamic complication thrown into the mix and this is Satan's diabolic interference in all the players, all of us and I can't imagine coping with our complexities without our faith in our Almighty.
I am grateful to be Catholic as we have our Blessed Virgin Mother who also helps thwart demonic influences, the Mother of God whom Satan fears most.
Respected sir, Shalom. I am a Muslim from the Arabian Peninsula. I appreciate your comment regarding the story of Ishmael and Isaac. I simply want to bring to your kind attention that you are a learned man and in the Arabic language we do not have a word for Infidel. This word was actually coined by the Crusaders declaring their holy war on the Muslims. The alternate word for battle in Arabic is HARB. Please note, the word (Infidel) is not an Arabic or a Muslim term...Thank you.
