Great lecture for it makes sense the irresponsibility, cruelty of dictators to colossal displacement of innocents people. Blessed loving jewish connected story! ❤
In Finnish language father in poetic or archaic style is for example "TAATTO taivahinen" meaning heavenly father. Vikings were of Finnish origins as well and the DNA-analysis of the King Rurik, his haplotype is most common just in Finland. The strong influence of vikings also is seen in English: "Dad. Daddy", I would guess. Interestingly in old Akkadian(?) father was TAT . The routes of 10 tribes into Parthia and the Vikings merchant routes might have gone to both directions. Some guess Finnish people could be partly of the lost tribe of Issachar. And there are 14 of 24 hereditary illnesses common to Yews and Finnish people found by osteo archeology. Finnish language is extremely conservative, as a fridge. Hebrew was asleep some thousand years and in Finnish language and in Hebrew are interesting word loans, similarities, as from Sanskrit and Sumerian as well. The story of Babel and the mixing of languages seem to be proved as a historic truth.
Thank You very much Prof. Abraham. History could be so sad even You have to know it to understand the here and now. Hag sameach pessach to You! You give me hope in hard times.
Kathleen, I feel your reaction, as me Av or Natural Dad , whom I never learned his name, is from over there. Here along side of Lake Erie there's plenty of fresh air in a Lawful climate. English-Biblical- Latin - irish -WELSH- Scott- Norman Case law should be transferred to these horribly backward committee type areas where gang rule and hard steel comfort stupidity. On a different note, there is clan McClintock Builder of Excellent Sailboats. Fun in the 50's and 60's , here in Ashtabula -geneva area I hope to learn how to sail and safely guard sail from ravages of Lake Erie for 14 ft. of wood boat. Don't feel helpless, you bring very much !
Thank you for this informative and deeply moving lecture. My prayers go out to the great suffering of the people. I wish you and family Chag Pesach Sameach
HE IS BEING WILLFULLY IGNORANT OF UKRAINES DEEPLY ANTI-SEMITIC PAST!! ITS DISGUSTING!! HE is a 3rd generation America, his family left ukraine for a reason which he is clearly intentionally not talking about.
Professor Abramson, Thank you for your moral courage and willingness to share your personal story. I discovered you while in college taking a course in anthropology of religion and needed a further scholarly source, for my paper. You have brought me no end of pride in my heritage and done so with so much dignity and as much neutrality as to allow so many from such diverse opinions to study along with you-without alienating! Now, in such trying times and with such a deep personal legacy, you have been able to present coherent and cogent information. I bless G-d for you and ask Hashem to refresh your spirit and that of your family as well.
In the Passover story, the Hebrew people leave Egypt with almost no notice. The unleavened matzo symbolizes the fact that bread didn't even have time to rise. God bless the Jews of Ukraine, who know what it's like. As did their ancestors, they will persevere and overcome hardship.
This is Awesome because alot of the Moedern day Jews ✡ have deep roots in Russia and Ukraine 🇺🇦 ,Eastern European Countries really I believe that most of the House of Israel 🇮🇱came from this region Keep up these Awesome studies 🙂👍👍
Thank you, it's good to hear that in your story the Ukrainians come out better than I had always heard/read/surmised from stories about guards in Nazi concentration camps.Ukraine has one of the higher number of righteous under the gentiles recognized by Yad Vashem (although not per capita). One thought: you may want to to refer to the Catholic Church as 'Roman Catholic' when you distinguish this organization from the Orthodox (but not orthodox Jewish) or Byzantine Church: I've been told that Lutherans for example take some offence at 'Catholic' tout court.
I'm new, thx to Ytube random presentation to me. I don't have alot of money for Tzackah, but BzHshm one day we'll meet, and I guarantee, if you own a house or condo, I'll be able to do some necessary repairs. I do for any (Chabad) Rabbi I have the honor and pleasure to daven with. I was born in Montreal, live in Plattsburgh NY for last 30 years, and currently working in S Florida for the winter
שלום! Schön. You are absolutely great at conveying interesting information. מזל טוב. תודה רבה. (One can see how intelligent my "smart phone" is about putting different scripts in their property places.)
Matthew, I especially enjoy Dr.'s reference to feeding a hungry sojourner as somewhere in Bible demand. Because of Social Security Act of 1937 I can share. ( currently living with khatu UL ( kitties ) who don't believe in armed conflict- most of the time.
Most of that land,pictured in your video was actually Russia prior to 1917. From point of view of Gorbachev head of USSR that’s Ukraine. From point of view any Russian President that’s former Russian territory that was renamed to Ukraine and given political status within confines of USSR. So in essence any non-Russian government in charge of this land should have no other function than as a custodian of it.
As I mentioned in the video itself, I didn't want to violate copyright by reproducing someone else's video inside my recording (it was broadcast to the live audience under fair use provisions). I provided the link to both clips in the information box.
Thank you. In some mysterious way, this video helped me to lower my anxiety about currents events in Ukraine and I could be absorbed into the lesson. My family is safe , I have been living in the neighbouring Poland, I came to visit them there in Ukraine before the new academic year. Yet , sometimes i am lacking mental energy to cope with what's happening . Thank you, dear Prof Henry Abramson. Your lecture has eased my pain.
Excellent video, Dr. Abramson, and once again your extraordinary personal experiences are acutely relevant, although nothing quite matches your story of the yeshiva student from West Point. I suggest Putin is also channeling Jonas, a Russian bishop, who was installed in Moscow in 1448 as Metropolitan of Kiev, just five years prior to the fall of Constantinople to the Ottomans in 1453. His new theory, which survives in Putin’s mind, sees Moscow as the Third Rome, the legitimate successor to Constantinople, and sees the Patriarch of Moscow as head of all the Russian Church. For centuries, these were the only Eastern Orthodox Christians not under Ottoman control. Both Putin and his ecclesiastical lapdog Kirill, Patriarch of Moscow, were horrified when in 2019 Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew granted autocephaly to the Ukrainian Orthodox church, breaking a spiritual union dating to 988. Putin condemned this, saying that autocephaly was intended to “divide the peoples of Russia and Ukraine.” Last July, not long before he sent 100,000 troops to the Ukrainian border, Putin declared that the two countries’ “spiritual unity” was under attack. Then, just three months ago, Epiphanius I, the head of the freshly minted Orthodox Church of Ukraine, did the unthinkable. He announced a switch for Christmas Day in Ukraine from January 7th to December 25th. This, for Putin, was a step too far.
Dr Abramson, I have concerns that members of my Jewish community are purposefully neglecting the far right and Nazi element in Ukraine. They might be relatively small in number, but they still highly influential in Ukrainian domestic politics, with their leaders holding court with senior foreign dignitaries, let alone forming the backbone of the military. Thoughts?
Dennis, this sounds like a typical Russian talking point. I have no doubt that after the war is over the small number of extremists will be dealt with ("backbone of the military" is absurd). For now, we are dealing with actual, documented war crimes committed by Russian forces against Ukrainian civilians. That's what needs our attention right now. Murders, rapes, torture. Please read reputable news sites.
...plenty of White Ethno-Nationalist nazi supporters on RU side -- including founder of Wagner Group mercenaries, with his nazi tattoos -- Wagner dogtags, with Arabic from Syria war, have been found in UKR
While this is a genuine concern, these people are not only the Azov Battalion. There are neonazi elements in other parts of the region - including Russia + probably in the Russian military - as well as in neighboring countries - as well in the US. Yes we are supplying them with weapons, we supply good people + bad with weapons across the globe. These are good debates to have during non-emergencies. Right now let's focus on the larger crisis, humanitarian efforts, war crimes, refugees + the potential for nuclear atrocities.
The actual fact is that Muslims, under umar bin al khattab, invaded Jerusalem. Arabs invaded the whole of the Middle East and eradicated well established civilisations like the Assyrian, Phoenician, Greek, Zoroastrian, Amazeeghs and so on and forced them into Islam. You should revise your history before making false statements.
mr. Abramson, I am shocked by you. I even gave you thumb down - so much I cannot believe what happened to you. Did they come to you? did they pay you for this videao? what happened to the historian person within you that caused you to spew out all the propaganda of the globalist and the collective West instead of reserching and studiying for yourself? I have watched your videos for the last 4 years and was very impressed by your integrity - what this video shows is so different from all the others that I watched (dozens actually) that it must show that this is not you, at least not the you that was revealed untill now. Like you I was also horrified by the footages and pictures of the ukranian refugees, however that did not cause me to lose connection to reality, so your introduction to this video cannot be an eccuse. I hope that you soon return to the serious historian that you used to be.
Thank you so much for this invaluable lecture. I learned so much about the current situation in Ukraine because of your amazing skills to put the various pieces of information in such clear and comprehensible manner. I would have loved, however, that you would have had also touched on the Haggadah itself. God bless you and your family and a big Chag Sameach 🙏🙏
Thank you for this. It is something to meditate on - our own personal treatment of "strangers"... and that God watches us in this regard.
Amen 👐🙏👐
You’re a Jew, not an Israelite of any tribe.
Great lecture for it makes sense the irresponsibility, cruelty of dictators to colossal displacement of innocents people. Blessed loving jewish connected story! ❤

Jews don’t worship YHWH, they worship themselves and Lucifer. You have nothing to do with Israelites and their traditions, Synagogue of Satan.
Thank. You.

You're talking about the notorious "Azov battalion" of course and yes it is pretty worrying that they are openly pro-Nazi antisemitic radicals.
Thank you!

Hey Henry! Were you aware that Q’s last name is Cohen?
Israel is Israel.
Ukraine is pagan.....diferent like day and night
You are strangers in the land of Palestine, the land you stole by force
Historically incorrect. The complete opposite of what you say. Sorry.
The land belongs to the Jewish people. Even Koran admits that.
The actual fact is that Muslims, under umar bin al khattab, invaded Jerusalem. Arabs invaded the whole of the Middle East and eradicated well established civilisations like the Assyrian, Phoenician, Greek, Zoroastrian, Amazeeghs and so on and forced them into Islam.

You are ignorant, but I cannot pour a gallon of milk into a quart container.
