The Essenes believed Jesus to be the Perfect Purified Human, the Messiah, who was brought to the Essenes with his family when he was 2 years old & was perceived as Pure & Righteous. Jesus taught the way of the Essenes such as in Matthew 5.
Always thought the Jews had one believe , sounds like the fought amongst each other Then the Muslim and Jews seem to have a lot of mind control and hate if you’re not in their gang
The Essenes had numerous holy books that the sages did not recognize as genuine scriptures. Few of these "Dead Sea scriptures are even mentionedin theTalmud.
@@Yosaif-Israel gladly, because Israel abandoned Elohim and started worshipping idols in the temple. You can open Tanakh and read. Now your turn, do tell
I believe the Greek “new” testament letters give some insight on this. A man named Saul of Tarsus (“apostle” Paul) was teaching gentiles that the Soreg Wall was abolished in Messiah Yeshua’s flesh in his letter to the Ephesians (chapter 2), and Trophimus the Ephesian decided to go past the Soreg Wall and defile the temple on one of his missionary trips with Saul of Tarsus. This event is described in the book of Acts, chapter 21, verse 28. As a former xtrian who is considering conversion to Judaism, the Greek “new” testament gives ample internal evidence that Paul was a false apostle who opposed Yeshua and His disciples - who, with John the “Baptist” were aligned with the Essenes. Among the Essenes, Menechim the Essene resigned from his post because the priestly class had become so corrupted.
@@Yosaif-Israel If they were erased from the pages of history, we wouldn’t be having this conversation and much of what was said in this presentation would have no bearing on modern affairs. Namely, that much of the oral traditions within Orthodox Judaism today are more representative of the ancient Essenes than the Pharisees.
@@Yosaif-IsraelMy goal is not to inform another culture about their history. That isn’t my place. If that’s how my comments were interpreted, I apologize for my lack of clarity. With that said, it appears that the presenter in this video was conveying that there are many traditions that orthodox circles today share with the Essene tradition more than the ancient Pharisees. My goal with my original comment was to add another layer of context to a first century work that speaks about why the temple was destroyed. A case can be made that the heretic Saul/Paul was teaching uncircumcised gentiles that the Soreg wall was no longer valid and an Ephesian Trophimus defiled the temple.
Blessings! I came here to understand who the pharesis (you spell pharisees) were! I am Christian, & it's so very interesting that Jewish religion teaches that the Torah, Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers &Deuteronomy Always existed? That it was eternal? That B4 God created all the beautiful & our beautiful Universe That God looked in the Torah as a Blueprint? I'm just at ur beginning of ur video! (I also just subscribed to ur channel!) I love learning about other cultures & religions! If we don't learn about each other & ask questions, there will never be peace among all God's children, all the ppl on earth! Now as Christians we believe God always was & will be! That He created the universe as it says in Genesis! Now I agree That First Came The Word Of God, That the Word Always Was, And Will Be! But, I can't imagine God who is ALL Knowing, & Knows all of us b4 we were born, and all the feathers on every bird, & every hair on every humans head from past, present & future and every grain of sand! & God who created the Angels, Heavenly Hosts, Adam & Eve, etc wld need a blueprint on How to Create anything? Doesn't that sound odd to you? He IS God! Why wld he need to check any instructions on how to make anything? Now that is someone not of your faith looking in asking this question!! Do the Samaritans (The Keepers) also believe this about the Torah? (as they Only study the first 5 books only) I look forward to your reply & I look forward to learning so much from you & you'd channel! Blessings to you and your family, You truly are God's chosen ppl! Love from Dayton Ohio USA the invention capital of the world!
Yes, we do believe that the Torah is eternal and pre-existed Creation. Certainly, a perfect God does not require a "blueprint" - the notion that "God looked into the Torah and created the world" is more of a metaphor to teach that all of history unfolds according to God's plan, as encoded in His Torah. Thank you for the blessings, and may you be blessed as well!
As a born Catholic, been there. The ONLY way to have answers is learning with Jewish people. You may have a lot within a Noahides group too. I converted in 2020 and still learning. Happy now❤, I fit now, was not before. Enjoy the classes! Of course Hashem doesn't need a Blueprint per say, the blueprint is for us to learn and there was stuff in the blue print for future, like spleeting of the see, if the see would not have wanted to split, would not have been created. So I guess the blueprint was with all the "options" to show creations if they did not want to follow the Word. But, just my POV.
I'm a non-Jew, a Yeshua (Jesus) follower ( The Way of LOVE, and a spiritual free thinker), I found this teaching presentation very interesting. What basic books would you recommend for a non-Jew who want to learn more about this topic and the diverse perspectives of Judaism? What basic principles and insights can be applied into a non-Jewish way of life? ... I started today to subscribed to your channel.
I am so happy to have found you Efraim, because even though I have been to the Kabbalah centre in London and studied some courses there, and I have the 22 volumes of Zohar as decoded by Yitzchak Luria, they don't teach the depth that you do I find it fascinating, and I am absolutely amazed at the level of scientific knowledge and esoteric knowledge that you teach. Actually I was totally dumbfounded bu your lectures on the tower of Babel and Noah's Ark, truly incredible! Did our ancestors really possess such advanced technology? and this technology sounds almost like supernatural as well as being physical, I am struggling to see how the 2 can be one.
Glad to hear, thank you :) There is so much about the past that we don't know. That said, we do find evidence from around the world that ancient technology was far more advanced than we think.
After all my independent research, I arrived at the conclusion that, second temple era politics aside, the Sadducees were closer to the true Hebraic worldview of the ancient Israelites. That is why I keep stating that human beings should be working together in order to pass on a better way of life to future generations here on this one planet Earth that nourishes us all. However, I should be humble enough to admit that I could be wrong, and I am grateful for your videos because now I am able to recognize the 'mashiahh' if there is to be one, but I keep thinking that no religion is perfect. Just this morning, I was thinking that the few Zartoshtis on this planet should reclaim the concepts of a Saoshyant and a 'frashokereti' that Jews, Christians, and Muslims have distorted. From what I gather, even the Magi and later Persian Zoroastrians lacked understanding of the true meanings in the Gathas of Zarathushtra.
Brother, Plse help understand how King Ahkenaten is a figure that has a connection to the Jewish Faith. I feel he is part of our background. I come to you for understanding. 🙏🏼
I don't think there is a direct connection between Akhenaten and Judaism, but there is a parallel in that Akhenaten became a monotheist. Perhaps he was inspired by the Israelites!
I don't hear well, so when he throws in the Hebrew words, I can't understand them enough to look them up to see what he means. I use closed captions, but they are auto-generated and do not out the right words. Other than that being difficult for me, I like the teaching.
While the Talmud does contain some mild criticism of some Perushim, it references to the Perushim are usually very positive. Repeatedly the sages describe themselves as the spiritual heirs of the perushim.
Abraham was Jewish? That is impossible. Also Judaism is a religion that came out of the Mossiac law with tons of addons and traditions that Moses wouldn't recognize.
Its too confronting to realise Abraham was not Jewish. Abraham was the same religion as Adam, Noah and Moses. He was follower and submitter to the Creator. God does not make mistakes or have prejudice
could Zechariah 13:8-9 be speaking on this? The 2/3rds being the Pharisees and Sadducees, and the 1/3rd left being the Essenes who were refined by fire.

The title "rabbi" is repeatedly used in the Gemara to refer to the spiritual leaders of the community as "rabbis" but there is no reference to this term in the Dead Sea Scrolls. There, the leaders of their community are described as "Zadokites."

Most of zugot are converts who didn't have actually chain of tradition with 40 generations of israel tradition before them. Zugot did reform on judaism and brought new laws.
The fact that this involved an oral tradition, it answers the questions I had on my mind... Times ahead will be very tumultuous. Everyone should be strong and remain dedicated to their beliefs in the higher power. Just because I love people and want as many beautiful people as possible to remain faithful to the most high.
The Essenes generally avoided marriage. The Talmudic sages required it for all Jews. Most Essenes had no children. The Talmudic sageconsidered children a great blessing, and urged Jews to have as many of them as possibe,
58:00 you dont know what tzadukim means 😅😅. Really? Tzadokim are from high preist tzadok that are appointed To lead temple. Cant remember one profet said also that Tzadokim was priests in temple in 2. Temple.
55:30 abtalion and shmaya are both converts , descendants of syrian king. They changed Israel law and traditions. That tells all about authenticity of so called oral law in mishna.
Perushim could take some traditios of esens, but esens didn't wrote mishna. They wasnt in sanhendrin and didnt have ability to change laws and to command them to judeans. Only perushim had ability to do that , cos they took over sanhendrin.
42:00 Juda ben tabai os quoted in akdama lemishne torah as chain in mesora while he left his position as av bet din in 3. Pair of zugots, cos he didnt know perushim are planning to completely change Israel traditions . He left their ideology but still is quoted in chain of mesora written 1000 years later by rambam. Then Menachem, av bet din, in 5. Pair of zugot also left sanhendrin and fariseik ideology. And is replaces by Shamai. Shamai literary brought many laws. So menachem could be essene, he could have some influence, But he obviously, didnt want to do along with other fariseik ideology and he left.
49:00 Tzadukim didn't wear tefilin cos its was not israel traditions. It comes as new tradition from time of perushim, and obviously essens adopted it. There is mo mention of tefilin in tanakh
Your imaginative claim that the references to the the "first sages" and the "hasidim" are really references to the Essenes is is iimlausible. Especially since the hasidim of the late Temple period as wandering from place to place preaching to the poor. Few if any of the Talmudic sages conducted this kind of traveling ministry.
Corrected version: Your imaginative references to the "first sages" as Essenes is unlikely. The Talmud describes the hasidim of the late Temple period as wandering preachers who preached to the poor in villages where there was no Beit Midrash. Possibly even without a synagogue. While the the Talmudic and Mishnaic sages also of course also preached to the poor, but they did this from their own homes ,synagogues. and beitim midrashim. They wetre not itinerant preacher like the late temple hasidim.
Heavenly God doesn't require blood sacrifice, its abhorrent, its anathema to him! God is the creator, he constructs! He doesn't kill or destruct, the essenes are most Godly
Only, his name is Y'shua, a Jew who taught the Torah, rejecting oral traditions (per Deuteronomy 4:2 & 12:32, & Proverbs 30:6). Contrary to the teaching of Christianity, Y'shua did not claim to abolish the Torah (Matthew 5:17-19): "Do not think that I came to annul the Torah or the Prophets; I did not come to annul, but to fulfill. Truly I say to you, Until the heaven and the earth pass away, in no way shall one yod or one stroke pass away from the Torah until all comes to pass. Therefore, whoever loosens one of these commandments, the least, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the worst in the kingdom of Heaven. But whoever does and teaches them, this one shall be called great in the kingdom of Heaven." In the first century C.E., the followers of Y'shua were identified as a sect of Judaism known as the Nazarenes (Acts 24:1-5). Y'shua's purpose is to re-unify the houses of Judah and Israel (Ezekiel 37:21-28 & Ephesians 2:13-22), fulfilling the Father's promise to Abraham (Genesis 17:1-5).
Josephus calls them Syrian rebels but Moses tells they are the kings of an area in todays turkey that was a kingdom in that time “EDESSA” they were only rebels to the Roman they were both crucified if I remember correctly 🤷🏼♂️
also would love to hear your thoughts on the similarities between historical Josephus and Saul/paul in Christianity they had a brother with the same exact name and their scribes had the same exact name they would have been on the same ship to see Cesar were both Jews in Roma at the same time but neither writes on the other I don’t think they are the same person but it’s compelling info Mathias and Josephus barnabus threw lots to decide who would be the next deciple after Judas
interesting you find in the “New Testament “ this verse Acts 13:1 וַיִּהְיוּ בַּקָּהָל אֲשֶׁר בְּאַנְטְיוֹכְיָא נְבִיאִים וּמְלַמְּדִים וְאֵלֶּה שְׁמוֹתָם בַּר־נַבָּא וְשִׁמְעוֹן הַנִּקְרָא גַם־נִיגַר וְלוּקְיוֹס הַקּוּרִינִי וּמְנַחֵם אֲשֶׁר הָיָה אָמוֹן עִם־הוֹרְדוֹס טֶטְרַרְךְ וְשָׁאוּל why do you think they put apparently the same Menachem there?
@@theholyeternalinfinite9368 Menachem the Essene predicted that Herod would become king when the latter was still a child. Herod was born c. 72 BCE, and Menachem obviously would have been much older, so we can safely say that his year of birth would have been at least before 90 BCE.
The Essenes made a distinction Jewish people as a whole and the "community"--meaning the Essene community. By contrast the Talmudic sages did not recognize any exclusive "community" within the Jewish people.
When you are speaking about a specific part of the Talmud that should be stated. To just say Talmud is anochronistic because Talmud as a whole is not compiled and finished until after the diaspora of the 70AD. Essenes didn't need the Talmud because they had already separated themselves from the other groups.
21:44 why dont you say to students that tzadukim are preists coehns who served in temple? those who kept israel traditions for 40 generations as is written in tanakh? those whoa re appointed by God, and torah to bless and to lead Israel? preciesly descendents of preist Tzadok.
15:48 you see how you twist things on rabinical bias? you say: Yosefus was not like a rabi, for telling a law as cohen? but in reality , rabiz took over role of shevet levi , that torah commands, go to shevet levi to tell you law . parashat shoftim. where , show me where torah or tanakh, mentiones title rabi? just show me. and show me where torah apponts that rabi will tell you a law? no where. rabiz are self apointed autority, in pirkei avot. they wrote own book and appointed them self for authority
33:27 why we ritualy wash hands before meal. 1. Its rabinical command made against torat moshe. To make everyone cohen. Then, we say bracha levatala, baruch ata adonai, eloheinu melechna olam, asher kidishanu be mitzvotav vetzivanu al netilat yadayim. And God didnt commanded us to do that. Its not only that we dont say, thank you rabiz for commanding us netilat yadayim, but we LIE that God commanded us that command. It is what rabiz made am israel to do, to lie, to say bracha levatala.
1:02:00 exacly Perushim derived their power from ORAL TRADITION , own oral traditions that they personally invented. And self appointed own self as leaders! Shevet levi derives power from only one written torat moshe. Its all make sence. The one who is occupying leadership position are rabiz who prevented building of temple. Stupid once are today cohanim, levim, who dont fight for their right and dont create own movement to impose prehazal judaism.
I thought Jacob battled Lord of the Present namely Israel and that He was only considered Esau’s guardian angel until Jacob supplanted Him and his name. Also wasn’t the role of Israel to help HaShem to complete the creation, and to do so by always pushing it in new directions so as to unfold it to the greatest extent. And if that is also the role of the so-called stumbling block, then isn’t Jacob/Israel the new stumbling block?
The Word of God: LOGOS: Jesus Christ is eternal. Jesus is the Creator, He is at the beginning. He is the high priest you are looking for: the Messiah: Tribe of Judah, lineage of King David. He is from the order of Melchizedek BEFORE the law came. Abraham tithed a 10th to Him: King of Salem. Jesus is the prince of peace, sitting at the right hand of the Father: He is our intermediary between God and man: our high priest. Read about Him in Isaiah 53 and the book of Hebrews.
Sorry but the genealogy listed in the gospel is invented/fabricated to try to fulfill “prophecy”. “Modern scholarship tends to see the genealogies of Jesus as theological constructs rather than factual history: family pedigrees would not usually have been available for non-priestly families, and the contradictions between the two lists are seen as clear evidence that these were not based on genealogical records.” - en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genealogy_of_Jesus Stop following the pauline/roman doctrine. The writings of a fraud to distance humanity from eternal life. As he opens modern judaism was a recent construct and was defeated several times throughout history. So it raises the questions: is their god not all powerful, or is he angered with them and fell out of his grace, or does he simply not exist? That the maccabees created modern judaism from the ashes of the Hellenistic Israelites and surrounding communities in order to maintain hierarchy and stability in their caste system and haughty attitude of superiority and supremacy.
What if I told you there's two Messiahs would you freak out don't worry Jesus Is Still The King of Kings and there's the prince of the congregation you can't have a kingdom without servants there's also dual prophecies open your mind and you'll find the way keep it closed and you'll end up in a ditch
1:02 :00 haha how you twist things 😅 You say tzadokim denied oral traditions to maintain their power And you twisting the truth That PERUSHIM invented new oral traditions to gain power and to take power from shevet levi! Amd they farisees still keep taht power While shevet levi brainwashed and pushed in corner are brainless to take ower their torah duties.
So the "Judaism as we know it" is Judaism without the Land and without the Temple. Is it not the reason why God used secular Jews to restore the State of Israel?
No. The state of Israel is a secular construction by worldly governments, spiritual powers and principalities. The present state is Israel is a structure that is propelled by Zionist, "Jewish Zionist" and Christian Zionist. The Judaism of the Second Temple period was very different from today's Rabbinic Judaism and Jewish Zionism. 2TP Judaism was not monolithic as Ephraim said. The were at least 24 sects of Judaism at that time and they were also different from Ancient Israelite religion.
@@mistere5792 but more or less they still identify as Jews. And MOST Jews today can’t recall anyone in their ancestral line as being non-Jew. So are you suggesting that the Jews of the 1800s and 1900s weren’t really Jews? And that they only suffered the consequences of being “Jews” in vain.

I think that's a big influence on the Christian tradition, which would make sense.
Damn, these Jews sure like to argue with each other lol
You would avoid the headache of what to eat and what not to eat if you follow the clean vegan diet of the peaceful Essenes.

Times ahead will be very tumultuous. Everyone should be strong and remain dedicated to their beliefs in the higher power. Just because I love people and want as many beautiful people as possible to remain faithful to the most high.
16:30 what is oral torah for you? even rambam says that oral laws Torah Shebaal Peh, are decisions of sanhendrin,
Joshepus isn't biased because in his own autobiography, he tells himself he's the best.
Nice 😂
what's the meaning of "wicked zimmery"? (non-jew here)
Referring to the story of Zimri and Cozbi in Numbers 25.
@@EfraimPalvanov thank you, love the chan.
The Essenes generally avoided marriage. The Talmudic sages required it for all Jews. Most Essenes had no children. The Talmudic sageconsidered children a great blessing, and urged Jews to have as many of them as possibe,
ascetic Essences did not get married but CD Essences did have families and there were neighborhoods of CD Essenes in towns like Jerusalem.
58:00 you dont know what tzadukim means 😅😅.
Really?
Tzadokim are from high preist tzadok that are appointed To lead temple. Cant remember one profet said also that
Tzadokim was priests in temple in 2. Temple.
I mean where does the TORA mention the Talmud?
huh? the Talmud is a series of books interpreting the Torah many centuries later.
Talmud is anochronistic to the Second Temple Period.
Talmud is not inspired scripture.
Tahnahk and Talmud are not equal.
55:30 abtalion and shmaya are both converts , descendants of syrian king.
They changed Israel law and traditions.
That tells all about authenticity of so called oral law in mishna.
Josephus according to Reuchlin Abelard-True Author on New Testament, Josesphus was Calpurnius Piso! Is this true Rabbi
I have heard of this hypothesis and I do not believe it is true.
@@EfraimPalvanov Thank you Rabbi
8:31 holiday shavuot in Torah is not even connected to giving of Torah. Most probably, yom terua was day when Israel celebrated receiving of torah.
Perushim could take some traditios of esens, but esens didn't wrote mishna.
They wasnt in sanhendrin and didnt have ability to change laws and to command them to judeans.
Only perushim had ability to do that , cos they took over sanhendrin.
Why are they all adopting Greek and Roman names?
Judges,police, politicians, pastors,and the media
42:00 Juda ben tabai os quoted in akdama lemishne torah as chain in mesora while he left his position as av bet din in 3. Pair of zugots, cos he didnt know perushim are planning to completely change Israel traditions . He left their ideology but still is quoted in chain of mesora written 1000 years later by rambam.
Then Menachem, av bet din, in 5. Pair of zugot also left sanhendrin and fariseik ideology. And is replaces by Shamai.
Shamai literary brought many laws. So menachem could be essene, he could have some influence,
But he obviously, didnt want to do along with other fariseik ideology and he left.
The people that keep interrupting are so rude and irritating.
49:00 Tzadukim didn't wear tefilin cos its was not israel traditions. It comes as new tradition from time of perushim, and obviously essens adopted it.
There is mo mention of tefilin in tanakh
Your imaginative claim that the references to the the "first sages" and the "hasidim" are really references to the Essenes is is iimlausible. Especially since the hasidim of the late Temple period as wandering from place to place preaching to the poor. Few if any of the Talmudic sages conducted this kind of traveling ministry.
Corrected version: Your imaginative references to the "first sages" as Essenes is unlikely. The Talmud describes the hasidim of the late Temple period as wandering preachers who preached to the poor in villages where there was no Beit Midrash. Possibly even without a synagogue. While the the Talmudic and Mishnaic sages also of course also preached to the poor, but they did this from their own homes ,synagogues. and beitim midrashim. They wetre not itinerant preacher like the late temple hasidim.
What are the 24 groups?
Can you help complete the list or where can I find the list?
Pharisees
Sadducees
Essenes
CD Essenes
Samaritans
Zelots
it was a tendon jacob could not eat not a nerve
Rabbi what happened to your hair 😅
Heavenly God doesn't require blood sacrifice, its abhorrent, its anathema to him! God is the creator, he constructs! He doesn't kill or destruct, the essenes are most Godly
Could it possibly be, that just MAYBE, JESUS is the Messiah? And HE is coming back ?
Please see 'Judaism vs. Christianity' here: ruclips.net/video/Jgf7hBGqzJM/видео.html
Only, his name is Y'shua, a Jew who taught the Torah, rejecting oral traditions (per Deuteronomy 4:2 & 12:32, & Proverbs 30:6). Contrary to the teaching of Christianity, Y'shua did not claim to abolish the Torah (Matthew 5:17-19):
"Do not think that I came to annul the Torah or the Prophets; I did not come to annul, but to fulfill. Truly I say to you, Until the heaven and the earth pass away, in no way shall one yod or one stroke pass away from the Torah until all comes to pass. Therefore, whoever loosens one of these commandments, the least, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the worst in the kingdom of Heaven. But whoever does and teaches them, this one shall be called great in the kingdom of Heaven."
In the first century C.E., the followers of Y'shua were identified as a sect of Judaism known as the Nazarenes (Acts 24:1-5). Y'shua's purpose is to re-unify the houses of Judah and Israel (Ezekiel 37:21-28 & Ephesians 2:13-22), fulfilling the Father's promise to Abraham (Genesis 17:1-5).
When you say Torah I take you mean the word of God. Jesus is the word made flesh.
The Torah is the five Books of Moses.
The Malak Adonai
Judas and Jesus of gamalia is interesting history some interesting stuff in Moses of choriene (Armenian) that is more in-depth then Josephus
Josephus calls them Syrian rebels but Moses tells they are the kings of an area in todays turkey that was a kingdom in that time “EDESSA” they were only rebels to the Roman they were both crucified if I remember correctly 🤷🏼♂️
also would love to hear your thoughts on the similarities between historical Josephus and Saul/paul in Christianity they had a brother with the same exact name and their scribes had the same exact name they would have been on the same ship to see Cesar were both Jews in Roma at the same time but neither writes on the other I don’t think they are the same person but it’s compelling info Mathias and Josephus barnabus threw lots to decide who would be the next deciple after Judas
But Essenes say they are the Sons of Zadok, sons of light at end time.
47:00 yes essens could be hasidim haRishonim
interesting you find in the “New Testament “ this verse
Acts 13:1
וַיִּהְיוּ בַּקָּהָל אֲשֶׁר בְּאַנְטְיוֹכְיָא נְבִיאִים וּמְלַמְּדִים וְאֵלֶּה שְׁמוֹתָם בַּר־נַבָּא וְשִׁמְעוֹן הַנִּקְרָא גַם־נִיגַר וְלוּקְיוֹס הַקּוּרִינִי וּמְנַחֵם אֲשֶׁר הָיָה אָמוֹן עִם־הוֹרְדוֹס טֶטְרַרְךְ וְשָׁאוּל
why do you think they put apparently the same Menachem there?
It is not the same Menachem. The verse clearly says Herod the Tetrach, not King Herod. Menachem the Essene would have lived many decades earlier.
@@EfraimPalvanov What year do you date the birth of Menachem?
@@theholyeternalinfinite9368 Menachem the Essene predicted that Herod would become king when the latter was still a child. Herod was born c. 72 BCE, and Menachem obviously would have been much older, so we can safely say that his year of birth would have been at least before 90 BCE.
The Essenes made a distinction Jewish people as a whole and the "community"--meaning the Essene community. By contrast the Talmudic sages did not recognize any exclusive "community" within the Jewish people.
When you are speaking about a specific part of the Talmud that should be stated. To just say Talmud is anochronistic because Talmud as a whole is not compiled and finished until after the diaspora of the 70AD. Essenes didn't need the Talmud because they had already separated themselves from the other groups.
“The thigh is an area that is sinful”.
Please use the word PROGRESSION instead of evolution.
2:00 But avraham was not a jew or bene israel. torah was given after him.
21:44 why dont you say to students that tzadukim are preists coehns who served in temple? those who kept israel traditions for 40 generations as is written in tanakh? those whoa re appointed by God, and torah to bless and to lead Israel? preciesly descendents of preist Tzadok.
It can’t be that polygamy is against the Torah especially because there are Talmud tractates full of cases where men have two wives
Why should I listen to you if you are the descendants of the Pharisees? When I know what the KING said about your peoples? Valid question, no offense
53:00 makabim
Go watch

15:48 you see how you twist things on rabinical bias? you say: Yosefus was not like a rabi, for telling a law as cohen?
but in reality , rabiz took over role of shevet levi , that torah commands, go to shevet levi to tell you law . parashat shoftim.
where , show me where torah or tanakh, mentiones title rabi? just show me.
and show me where torah apponts that rabi will tell you a law?
no where. rabiz are self apointed autority, in pirkei avot. they wrote own book and appointed them self for authority
33:27 why we ritualy wash hands before meal. 1. Its rabinical command made against torat moshe.
To make everyone cohen.
Then, we say bracha levatala, baruch ata adonai, eloheinu melechna olam, asher kidishanu be mitzvotav vetzivanu al netilat yadayim.
And God didnt commanded us to do that.
Its not only that we dont say, thank you rabiz for commanding us netilat yadayim, but we LIE that God commanded us that command.
It is what rabiz made am israel to do, to lie, to say bracha levatala.

Perushim derived their power from ORAL TRADITION ,
own oral traditions that they personally invented. And self appointed own self as leaders!
Shevet levi derives power from only one written torat moshe.
Its all make sence.
The one who is occupying leadership position are rabiz who prevented building of temple.
Stupid once are today cohanim, levim, who dont fight for their right and dont create own movement to impose prehazal judaism.
I thought Jacob battled Lord of the Present namely Israel and that He was only considered Esau’s guardian angel until Jacob supplanted Him and his name. Also wasn’t the role of Israel to help HaShem to complete the creation, and to do so by always pushing it in new directions so as to unfold it to the greatest extent. And if that is also the role of the so-called stumbling block, then isn’t Jacob/Israel the new stumbling block?
Please see the following for understanding Jacob, Israel and Esau: ruclips.net/video/xHZjSOP5alE/видео.html
The Talmud repeatedly describes the sages of their own time as successors of the Perushim.
The Essenes are never even mentioned the Essenes.
"Perushim" means interpreters. Essenes were more into the essence than into interpretation

The Word of God: LOGOS: Jesus Christ is eternal. Jesus is the Creator, He is at the beginning. He is the high priest you are looking for: the Messiah: Tribe of Judah, lineage of King David. He is from the order of Melchizedek BEFORE the law came. Abraham tithed a 10th to Him: King of Salem. Jesus is the prince of peace, sitting at the right hand of the Father: He is our intermediary between God and man: our high priest. Read about Him in Isaiah 53 and the book of Hebrews.
Sorry but the genealogy listed in the gospel is invented/fabricated to try to fulfill “prophecy”.
“Modern scholarship tends to see the genealogies of Jesus as theological constructs rather than factual history: family pedigrees would not usually have been available for non-priestly families, and the contradictions between the two lists are seen as clear evidence that these were not based on genealogical records.” - en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genealogy_of_Jesus
Stop following the pauline/roman doctrine. The writings of a fraud to distance humanity from eternal life.
As he opens modern judaism was a recent construct and was defeated several times throughout history. So it raises the questions: is their god not all powerful, or is he angered with them and fell out of his grace, or does he simply not exist? That the maccabees created modern judaism from the ashes of the Hellenistic Israelites and surrounding communities in order to maintain hierarchy and stability in their caste system and haughty attitude of superiority and supremacy.
What if I told you there's two Messiahs would you freak out don't worry Jesus Is Still The King of Kings and there's the prince of the congregation you can't have a kingdom without servants there's also dual prophecies open your mind and you'll find the way keep it closed and you'll end up in a ditch
1:02 :00 haha how you twist things 😅
You say tzadokim denied oral traditions to maintain their power
And you twisting the truth
That PERUSHIM invented new oral traditions to gain power and to take power from shevet levi!
Amd they farisees still keep taht power
While shevet levi brainwashed and pushed in corner are brainless to take ower their torah duties.
The Essenes sound very much like Mormons.
😆
This sounds like being slaves to ancient superstition..🤔
They were definitely false religion
So the "Judaism as we know it" is Judaism without the Land and without the Temple. Is it not the reason why God used secular Jews to restore the State of Israel?
Judaism today has the land just not the Temple. God plans everything out. a Jew is a Jew, no matter how secular he is.
No. The state of Israel is a secular construction by worldly governments, spiritual powers and principalities. The present state is Israel is a structure that is propelled by Zionist, "Jewish Zionist" and Christian Zionist. The Judaism of the Second Temple period was very different from today's Rabbinic Judaism and Jewish Zionism. 2TP Judaism was not monolithic as Ephraim said. The were at least 24 sects of Judaism at that time and they were also different from Ancient Israelite religion.
@@mistere5792 but more or less they still identify as Jews. And MOST Jews today can’t recall anyone in their ancestral line as being non-Jew. So are you suggesting that the Jews of the 1800s and 1900s weren’t really Jews? And that they only suffered the consequences of being “Jews” in vain.
