You are *never* a failure! Be as kind to yourself as God would be to you! I know fasting is such an emotional topic. I am glad you felt supported by this video ❤️❤️‍🩹

You are so welcome! I am glad it was helpful. Feel free to check out the playlists on my channel for more content. L’shanah tovah!

Thank you for the compliment :-) I’m afraid I can’t do that - you would probably have to buy the book. Adeena Sussman (the writer) owns the intellectual property rights.

You are so welcome! L’shanah tovah!

You can look at my tzitzit tying videos for instructions!

Thank you!

That’s turmeric powder and it adds mostly color and a little flavor to the challah. Enjoy!

Yay! Glad this was helpful!

Thank you!

@@asmallsanctuary your welcome

Thank you so much!

Thank you so much! I hope it inspires folks for the High Holidays!

Thank you and Shanah Tovah to you too! ❤️

Amen!

❤️

Great hack! What machine setting do you use for washing it?

@@asmallsanctuary usual 40° warm wash.

I am so glad it was helpful! Thank you!

Yay! Can’t wait to hear what your thoughts are on the book!

I’m glad you cherish those memories ❤️

Thank you for your question. Congratulations on riding your spiritual path ❤️ I’m a deeply religious and observant Jew but not an Orthodox Jew. Feel free to browse my channel for more theological and philosophical content. Try the playlist ‘Hashkafah’. May the Holy One continue to guide you in alignment with your soul ❤️

@@asmallsanctuary Thank you very much, I will watch the playlist. Are you Karaite Jewish? ❤️

You should check out her book - many of her recipes are vegan or can be veganized. She also has a vegan ‘water challah’ recipe in the book. The berry crisp was vegan, and if you use an egg replacer for the kugel, that would be easy to veganize too. The broccoli and vinaigrette were vegan and I think this would work great with cauliflower steaks too!

Isn’t it just lovely? I love the warm tones combined with the teal - and I really wanted to showcase that it’s accessible. Such a special place.

😆

Thank you so much! I appreciate your kind comment :-)

@asmallsanctuary Is it true, or is it not true?

@@HisMessenger-wf5qd Jacob became Israel. He never became the first Israelite. His descendants became Israelites. Actually Jews did not exist until the Assyrians conquered them around 722 B.C.. Before that they practiced the Laws of Moses. Judah practiced faith from Abraham and the ritual washings, circumcisions, and sacrifices. The Laws of what would become Judaism never existed until the Hebrew Israelites left Egypt and God instructed Moses to set down a strict regime to stop them from going back to Egyptian paganism. As time progresses, the Israelites would rebel against God, and to get them to repent and stay focused on their worship of Yahweh, more laws were put in place until all 613 laws were solidified into a 'Jewish' religion. Judah never had the paganism therefore he was but under the Laws of Moses and the prophets.

@sorinankitt If Israel was not the first Israelite, then the first Israelite would have had to be his first son, Ruben. Are you saying Ruben was the first Israelite? Isn't the origin of the word Jew because of the birth of someone in particular?

You do you, but I will stick to the authenticity of Judaism.

@@asmallsanctuary Where did the name 'Jew' come from? What did those people do that Abraham did not? Were Moses, Aaron, and the later prophets around to teach Abraham how to be a Jew?

Where on earth did you get this

We are unlikely to solve this 2000 year old Christian-Jewish dispute and I’m afraid nothing you argue will change my mind. Funny how that works with people on the internet 😇🙄

@@asmallsanctuary you either believe the Torah, in which the prophecies of Jesus are in or you do not. Unless some only believe in partial. God spoke these prophecies to Eve when God said “the women’s seed shall bruise your head.” Also add what he said to Abraham, that the nations will blessed through his seed. Then we have Judahs bless by Jacob. Then going out of the Torah we have the prophecies from Isaiah, Jeremiah, Daniel, Micah and others about Jesus, and the distraction of the second temple. To which Jesus fully depicts what will happen. Not a single stone will be left unturned. And it so passed to be. Call be a conspiracy person, but these are too many biblical statements that have been fulfilled to be left unnoticed. God bless and have a great day. 🙏🏽

@@PewGoBoomLife you can retcon Jesus back into the Hebrew Bible all you want, but it makes no difference to our people or the rest of the non-Christian world, billions strong. I am free from the burden of having to believe that all other human beings should believe as I do. God bless!

@@asmallsanctuary Yes it does make a difference between eternal life or eternal hell. As I stated above, you also do not have a way to atone for sin in this modern world when it comes to Judaism. If you do how so? Because I have read the Old Testament and I'm very familiar with it. What Jews are doing today is not atonement for sin. Is the Laws of Moses not stand any longer? Can we just knit pick the bible as we wish? Read what King Josiah is prime example of atonement in the Old Testament. I recommend reading it. Fact is what the world believes does not matter to God, God is the same never has he changed. The God of Abraham, Issac and Jacob is the same God today. What has changed is that he sent his only begotten Son to die for our sins. God was even sick of what the Hebrews where doing.... Isaiah 1: 11-17

The short answer is: yes. The longer answer is, yes, but it might be complicated which doesn’t mean it can’t be done! The Law or Return, for the purposes of aliyah (immigration), is set by the (secular) Israeli government. Jewish religious status within Israel, however, is determined by the (Orthodox) Chief Rabbinate. The Israeli government recognizes all valid* conversions to Judaism, irrespective of denomination, for the purposes of aliyah under the Law of Return, just as it would recognize someone with one Jewish parent or grandparent for the same purposes. So a person with a Jewish father or grandfather, who might otherwise not be recognized under traditional Jewish Law (Halakhah), can make Aliyah as per the Israeli government, but would not be considered as Jewish by the Chief Rabbinate. This situation also applies to all non-Orthodox converts (Reform, Conservative, Reconstructionist, Renewal), and many more Modern Orthodox conversions which aren’t deemed sufficiently Orthodox by the Chief Rabbinate. The State of Israel will recognize them but the Chief Rabbinate will not. Predictably, this is a source of political tension within and outside of Israel and is stressful for many Jews who do not have Jewish status under Orthodox auspices. So yes, as long as your conversion is *bonafide (*meaning you did it sincerely, have a conversion certificate and a legitimate Beit Din and have been living as a Jew within your community for at least 9 months), you should qualify under the Law of Return. It may still be a challenging process given controversies over ‘Who Is A Jew’ under the Israeli Chief Rabbinate, but it is possible. While the State will give you Israeli citizenship, the Chief Rabbinate will not consider you Jewish for purposes of personal status: birth, marriage, death etc. This may impact synagogue membership, participation and burial rights. Of course, there is a Reform and Conservative Movement in Israel with a growing amount of synagogues, so make sure to check them out. Hope this helps!

@@asmallsanctuary thanks

Thank you so much! Thank you for joining us. I’m about to upload the first episode - so stay tuned!

Me too! :-) I’m excited to teach the material that I so often teach in in-person settings.

Thank you for joining the Tribe! I hope you will enjoy the video series.

That’s because you live in the Orthodox community 😅 My channel is oriented towards the non-Orthodox Jewish experience 😘

@@asmallsanctuary Ok, I thought that might be it.

@@mindyschaperalthough I would love to hear from you whether you find that the way I talk about God (as a liberal religious Jew) is congruent with how some Orthodox Jews talk about God. Where do you think the similarities and differences are?

You are so welcome! My pleasure!

TzitzitProject.com sells for all genders (including women). There are also individual sellers on Etsy like Rabbi Eliana Jacobowitz who make and sell them. Good luck!

Challah is the true ‘wonder bread’ :-)

It’s a size 50”. If you go to the seller’s website, they will specify the width in inches. I’m 5”5.

@@asmallsanctuary im 175cm is it good size 60/170cm i saw that size on one site on ebay?

@@levia971 I would say if you’re that height, get a 55” tallit. 50” will be short. Hope this helps!

OY VEY!!!! Sigh #sacredcalling 🙃

You are so welcome! I am glad it was helpful!

Thank you so much! After 10/7, I’ve had to pull back to take care of my congregation, my family and myself but trying to ease my way back into things :-) thank you for your support.

Thank you so much! ❤

I use Woolite - or any gentle soap for hand washes and delicates.
