As someone who grew up Jewish in Arizona, I’ve always been fascinated by the Hasidic Jews of Brooklyn, New York. They are widely considered to be America’s most religious and closed-off community, even more than the Amish of Pennsylvania. In this 47-minute documentary, I embark on a journey to uncover the secrets of the Hasidics behind closed doors, and discover what makes their lifestyles so incredibly unique.
Guided in the beginning by my friend Abby Stein, a former Hasidic rabbi who is now a transgender author, I gain a fascinating insight into Hasidic life and customs from her perspective - both the good and the bad.
In our climax scene, I meet with @ShloimeZionce, a fellow traveler and RUclipsr, who opens the doors to his home so I could document a traditional Shabbat dinner with his family. With the permission of a rabbi, we capture the essence of this essential weekly ritual and the warmth and hospitality of the Hasidic people. You can follow Shloime's adventures on his channel: / shloimezionce
This story is really fascinating and I'm really proud of how it came out. From the traditional clothing, music, and food to the strict gender roles and controversies surrounding the community, this documentary dives deep into every aspect of Hasidic life with a balanced portrayal of the good and the bad.
Join me on this captivating journey to experience the Hasidic Jews of Brooklyn, New York, like never seen before.

I am a Muslim and I like family oriented communities, I respect the people who follow what they believe. I enjoyed watching
I *love* this response and attitude 💕
Careful, you’re gonna have your own “brothers” replying now calling you a traitor and saying free Palestine…
My only concern is closed religious (doesn't actually have to be religious) communities like this sometimes become breeding grounds for really scuzzy stuff. Victims can't really escape their community without leaving all they've known behind. And victimizers are often given protection due to their status in the community.
@@Viceeoff do not ruin the peace here and mind your business
@@123kirmizi wtf are you going on about you muppet. I’m just speaking facts. 95% of Muslims can’t even watch a video like this without taking themselves to the comments and saying something about Palestine
i am muslim and i was taught to hate jewish community because of israel and so on.. but now i am older and realised people have to see more of the world and build their own opinion about things and people! i have much respect to the jewish community and find them very interesting and enjoyed the video! i would love to visit.
Looks like you’re the only Muslim who can’t differentiate between Zionism and Judaism. There are real Jews who disagree with the modern day apartheid and oppression of the Palestinians, and there are Zionist and Jewish extremists who want to wipe every Palestinians from the face of this planet.
They hate us
@@nabati8903 we love life they love death so it is likely they will never get along.
Thank you for your comment. It is better that we get along with our neighbors.
For people reading, not all Muslims teach their kids to hate Jewish folk.
Great piece! Thanks for taking the time to document this. As a Jew born in Brooklyn and growing up in Manhattan, this bring a lot of clarity and understanding to even someone who lived there.
As a person who grew up in Bedford-Stuyvesant ...and walked many times in Williamsburg I LOVED THIS FILM. At 70 years old this took me back to all I learned about the HASIDIC COMMUNITY and their traditions. Thank you!
I want to leave Muslim. I want to be a Jew
This was a very challenging story to tell, given all of the tension and controversy, but I felt that I did the best of my ability to tell a well-rounded story, highlighting both the positives and the negatives in the community. One note about the North Korean internet comparison - I do regret keeping that part in because it is not true, and I got carried away. Thank you to those who have pointed it out.
My team and I worked for 6 months to get this video edited and ready to post, and I am really proud of how it came out. Huge thanks to Abby Stein, Shloime Zionce, Beri Weber and the others who gave me their time to explain life in their community. As always, I welcome your comments, thoughts and suggestions about the Hasidics in the comments here. I will be reading them all and responding to as many as I can 🙏
When is the next video
I said it on the community post but Lakewood New Jersey and the surrounding towns have a huge population of Hasidics
What are your thoughts on the Silicon Valley Bank collapsing yesterday, Drew Binsky?
It's not fair to make a video with someone who's ex-hasidic and has a lot of animosity against Hasidic Jews.
@@yankelay2635 What happened?
I'm not Jewish and I found this insight into the culture fascinating. It clearly shows all the efforts that went into it. Thank you for showing this to the world, I think it's brilliant
i am jewish
Sinner, thank you for revealing what you're not. Very important detail.
@@Divinity_vA , if I rubbed you the wrong way, you'll get over it. Trust me, just give it time.
This is NOT insight. This is a view from a disconnected jew with a narrow ignorant view and even less experience with Jews that contribute to TORAH life and experience yet still apart as in scripture tells us.
If the wacko was so knowledgeable then why doesn't 'IT' resist the evil temptation. This video based on the wisdom and experience of a NUT??? C'MON.......
I might say this was one of my favorite videos you have made and I just discovered your channel about a month ago. I’ve watched a ton. This was fascinating, thanks Drew! ❤ from Tennessee!
An incredibly interesting video to watch. Thank you so much for your efforts in producing this wonderful insight in to the people within the Hasidic community. Peace to you all.
A lesson we can all learn from this video: at least once a week, put the phone down and be in the moment with your family and friends. Thank you, Drew.
Agreed! I admire that. They put everything away to ensure bonds are kept and formed. We all could learn from that.
Amen
Even if it’s not for religious reasons. Taking some time out to be with your family and friends is a great thing to integrate into your schedule. :)
@@eggmon420 Sadly They doesn’t Convince Twitter Users Or TikTok Users
@@eggmon420 *Indeed. Jews or other religious people do NOT have a monopoly on this matter. I, for example, am an atheist. But, I still cherish my SECULAR family, spend time with them often, visit my mother (father is dead) at least once or twice a week, and for sure stay away from my cell phone often on a weekly basis when I am by myself and desire serious quiet time. I'm generation X, btw. My generation (people in their mid 40s through mid 50's) grew up without cell phones as kids. In any case, I also turn off the phone altogether when I am having dinner or lunch with family members in my house, their house(s), a restaurant, or if I'm with close friends enjoying their company. In sum -- if you have inner discipline, if you know how to live LIFE without all the nuisance and modern conveniences, if you treat fellow humans with respect and kindness -- you will be alright WITHOUT RELIGION.*
I am a 74 year old Catholic and I have always taken a special interest in Jewish history, ways and customs. This was by far, one of the most informative pieces I have ever seen and I thank you for your work and message. I found it fascinating and enlightening.

Thank you for sharing this with the world. I loved it!
Loved your time with Shloime in particular .... very touching insight into shabat
Abby Stein was really courageous for helping with this tour. I understand the community didn't work for her, but she was neutral and even supportive about the way it works for others. I thought she made a great liaison, bridging the cultural gap. And it's also important because there is an LGBTQ population in orthodox communities which need to feel that they have a face, a voice and a choice. Many kudos and thanks to Abby for her charm and kindness in the making of this video.

@@abekaye8317 I think they said "she" from the point of view of a rational decent thinking person as opposed to someone who deserves to have their head chopped off in a guillotine.
@@abekaye8317 She. You don't need to be a jerk about how people want to identify. Gender expression is complicated and nuanced, no need to be an ass.
If you're LGTB you can't be Orthodox. Stop trying to make everything to taste the same and respect the traditional movements in every religion.
@@abekaye8317it is a great shame that you feel the need to act in a way you know to be cruel. You have a sinful heart.
I'm not only not Jewish, but not religious at all. I have no idea why RUclips suggested this video to me but I'm incredibly pleased it did. I find it fascinating to learn about different peoples cultures, religions, or just their ways of life in a more general sense. You've earned a new subscriber today.
because Yiddish is the ultimate version of German. RUclips has based linguistic views.
I'm also not Jewish, but have always felt close to any culture that KNOWS who they are. That sense of self on the societal and individual level... Idk it's closer to me as a Cajun than any other culture I live around here in northern California.
I'm JEWISH
But I'm free from religion
Thank u YESHUA ❤❤
Thank you for a very educational video. I feel that the more we learn re people and what they believe will broaden us as individuals.
Same lol
Same.
Interesting video, thanks Drew, and huge respect to Abbie.
Absolutely love this video. Thank you!
Such an interesting documentary,Drew.I am Muslim and this video on the life of Hassidic community is very informative and an eye opener.Judaisim and Islam actually have a lot in common and to me the most important thing is to respect each other's religion. Keep up the good work of bringing out the beauty of the world
Thank you as a Jew
Thank you 🙏🏼 ✡️☪️
Hey! As someone’s who’s Jewish and not very familiar with Muslim law/customs, could you explain to me the similarities? I would love to hear, thanks! 😊
I think the only belief that can save humanity,
is to love our world, nature and each other.
Any belief system that separates one human from another,
especially with violence,
Is a zero-sum game.
Why would God wish death or war OR SEGREGATION by his word?
If God created this amazing planet and everything on this planet?
Why would God want us to destroy each other or any part of it's beauty?
Orthodoxy is cozy...you feel safe having the "right" belief.
But to be "right" about what God wants means that another person hast to be "wrong" about what god wants.
This is what is often referred to as Zero-sum game.
There is the earth and it's flora and fauna.
We may be the "keepers" of the earth....as CHOSEN by God?
If we are.....don't we have to STOP making war?
Look at all the wars through the millennia......isn't it time to make the final law?
The law against WAR
SO that we can move forward in peace?
Didn't God create Physics if God created the World?
So then......God=Science=Math=Physics?
God=Truth=Math=Science=Physics=Law....etc...AND ETC.
God doesn't seem so complicated to me.....God=Truth=Geometry=Math......
Anyway you get my drift.
I recommend all ltra Orthodox religions look at the fossil record
That humans have unearthed, and found falling out of eroded rock.
Pliosaur......it's not in the Torah.
But it should be.

Those teenagers answers about the religion was so sincere and open minded. Such thoughtful smart kids. Seems like the community is raising good people. Something this society needs.
Agreed ! It’s one of my favorite parts
I go to YU, one of them was my friend, it’s a great community I think this video is great representation!
Let it be known to all:
Through the Holy Spirit, God has put it on me to preach to those lost in the devil's deceit!
I tell ye, truly, Jesus of Nazareth is the propitiation for the whole world's sins. He is the anointed one, for he is, Jesus Christ. God the Father has raised him from the dead; who is gone into heaven, and is on the right hand of God! Angels and authorities and powers being made subject unto him.
Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life: no one comes to the Father, but by him. They who believe and are baptized with the Holy Spirit shall be saved; but they who believe not shall be damned. For they who believe not on him, shall die in their sins!
I tell ye now to repent of your sins, accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, and you'll receive the gift of the Holy Spirit upon asking the Father!
There are *NO* sub-divisions of Christianity. You're either a disciple of Christ or not. A Christian is someone who follows God's word, not a religion. Who obey the Father and follow his will; not man's nor their own heart's. Unless you keep Jesus' commandments, think not the Holy Spirit will dwell within you!
They who heed this message and did what was stated with an open heart to God...
Read the Holy Bible (KJV) daily and every time before you read, pray to the Father and ask:
"Lord I ask that you give me understanding of your word, that I interpret it the way you want me to, and none of my own. I ask you in Jesus' name, amen."
1 John 2:2 KJV
2 And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world.
Acts 13:26-33 KJV
26 Men and brethren, children of the stock of Abraham, *and whosoever among you feareth God, to you is the word of this salvation sent.*
27 *For they that dwell at Jerusalem, and their rulers, because they knew him not, nor yet the voices of the prophets which are read every sabbath day, they have fulfilled them in condemning him.*
28 And though they found no cause of death in him, yet desired they Pilate that he should be slain.
29 *And when they had fulfilled all that was written of him, they took him down from the tree, and laid him in a sepulchre.*
30 *But God raised him from the dead:*
31 And he was seen many days of them which came up with him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who are his witnesses unto the people.
32 *And we declare unto you glad tidings, how that the promise which was made unto the fathers,*
33 God hath fulfilled the same unto us their children, in that he hath raised up Jesus again; as it is also written in the second psalm, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee.
1 Peter 3:22 KJV
22 Who is gone into heaven, and is on the right hand of God; angels and authorities and powers being made subject unto him.
John 14:6 KJV
6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
Mark 16:16 KJV
16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.
John 8:24 KJV
24 I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins.
Acts 2:38 KJV
38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.
Luke 11:13 KJV
13 If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him?
John 14:21-24 KJV
21 *He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.*
22 Judas saith unto him, not Iscariot, Lord, how is it that thou wilt manifest thyself unto us, and not unto the world?
23 Jesus answered and said unto him, *If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.*
24 He that loveth me not keepeth not my sayings: and *the word which ye hear is not mine, but the Father's which sent me.*

Thank you for producing such an educational video.
Thank You. It was extremely educational.
Beautiful. As a African American women, I grew up in Liberty NY (Sullivan County) and then moved on to Middletown NY (Orange County) amongst the Jewish population and it was so good. I was invited to and went to my first Bat Mitzvah and then a Bar Mitzvah in Middletown, NY. The food is still so much part of my life. I just enjoy this culture and the many friends I still have. I thank God for my parents and theirs for being sincerely open to other cultures.
This is scary. I have never stumbled across anyone on the web that is from Liberty NY but I now can say I have because I have lived in Liberty NY for 10 + years and moved a little further towards PA & this documentary, many will not understand the impact that the Jewish community has had on Upstate NY.

Thank you for sharing this video Drew. Although I am now a non-practicing conservative and then reformed Ashkinazi Jew I have always wanted to know more about the Hasidic community and you really covered it all. Great job sir!
This documentary is absolutely fascinating! Very well done!
I’m a Muslim Imam, I thoroughly enjoyed watching this eye opening video by Drew. I gained additional insights into the various religious aspects of the diverse Jewish culture in the USA. Knowledge of all “hue-mankind” and all global religious traditions is essentially powerful and useful.It’s very important to me in by overall world views of various ethnicities and their religious understandings, which may be different from my deeply held orthodox Islamic beliefs. Drew deserves credit for displaying his religious faith for one and all to see. Much respect, again, is offered by me in taking the time to objectively watch this video. I gained much more valuable insight into Jewish culture and religious observances. Respectfully, Imam Al-Hajj Hakim Abdul-Ali.

The blessing has to do with the women not having as many mitzvot as the man, but I know the woman is very respected. Depends where...I am an American...lives in Israel...learned in meah shearim which is like Williamsburg. I'm not chasidic like them anymore, but I love my people.
Wow, I have learnt so much from your video about this community. Thank you for sharing
I grew up in an Orthodox Jewish family, a rabbi’s daughter and also exposed to Chassidic Judaism and personally drawn to it. The passionate zeal, beauty and holiness in the traditional Torah centered Chasidic way of life is so unique. I went to Beis Yaakov summer camp for girls and was blessed to go to yeshivot and even study and live in the dormitory at the women’s branch of Yeshiva University with other Rabbi’s daughters. I left that fold at age 21 to experience regular American life, many people and cultures and other religions.
As for a holy and spiritual daily life, I don’t think anything else compares to Chasidic Judaism and that community life. I left it, but thankfully, it never has never left me. True love and beauty, holiness and kindness- are everlasting. I’m so grateful it’s still in me. This video is precious and yet I feel that you have to have experienced it to really take it in. I too, feel grateful that this wonderful attempt was made. ❤
I too was in an Orthodox Jewish community (Chabad in Brooklyn) a little over 3 years. And yes, though one may leave it, "it" never leaves you

Very insightful.
This was very interesting and well done. The respect you’ve shown to the rules and traditions are commendable. I enjoyed learning.
Thank you for this amazing content! I am a Catholic woman, but I have several Jewish friends and I find learning about their culture quite fascinating. They are a people of love and devotion and commitment to their families and of carrying on tradition that was nearly wiped out in the war. They seem kind and loving and I thank all involved for allowing us to know a bit more about this faith!
I was raised Catholic too, but like Snow White ...... I drifted. I agree, this was a fascinating and educational video. I enjoyed it very much; and I share your views regarding their "love and devotion", 'commitment to family" and "tradition".
To Annie497 - I hope it was clear to you in the video that this is NOT the average Jewish person’s life. The Hassidic branch is very extreme, often to the point of being like a controlling sect, particularly for women.

Wow, you did it again Drew. As a Muslim, you opened my eye to a different kind of Judaism and its beautiful culture. those Hasidic gave me respect toward them and their culture and love for their religion and to protect their identity.

Your recent videos have felt more like documentaries vs just travel vlogs. Like there's something to be learned here with purposeful intention.

Thank you, Drew. You are doing good work teaching others to respect one another and to love. You are a blessing to a world so in need of peacemakers.
Thank you so very much Drew. I feel blessed that this RUclips channel found me. Through my life I ve had the privilege of knowing several Jewish families. Being a part of the traditions shown through your story reminded me of the kindness shown to me by my friends. Please thank all who kindly allowed your camera to enter their world. The more open we are to diversity the more we will learn to respect each other.
Shalom🕊
I really enjoy learning about other cultures, and this was very well done!
This was fascinating!! I now understand and have such respect for them.
I really enjoyed this. Thank you for sharing.
I’m not Jewish but I have always been fascinated by the Hasidic community. I have watched many documentaries and docuseries on this community in NY as well as other areas in NY that have similar sects and it’s always fascinating. Your view of it was even more profound as well as honest. 🦋
It was one of the most interesting and lovely, warm videos I watched of yours Drew! Great job and to all the lovely people who were featured in the video and the entire crew
I really enjoyed learning about this community. Thank you for sharing. Absolutely amazing!! Love the lifestyle 🦋🥰❤️
Thank you for giving insight into this community
The insight, and familiarity you give people about the diverse Jewish communities across the planet is amazing. You've got a great feel for cultural history, and social studies. You've created an amazing body of educational material. Well done Drew.
I grew up conservative Jewish and it doesn't cut it for me...
The families have high divorce rates. They talk about politics and the state of Israel at Temple, a house of worship not political debate, and the families in conservative Jewish community move away from each another for career opportunities.
Orthodox Jewish people work with their hands, play instruments, don't get divorced and don't move away from family. Also they protest against the conflict with Palestine and avoid getting drafted.
I wish to be part of an Orthodox Jewish community one day
We need more of these types of videos. If we all knew more about one another's religions, languages, ethnicities etc., maybe we can all start to get along better. Great video. 💜
If you know what Talmud and Quran said about you you would be *horrified.*

Read a little bit of the Talmud sometime. You'll definitely learn something....

Thank you for teaching me all this stuff I didn't know about!
Really interesting and nicely balanced, much better than the usual hit-pieces. Thanks for the insight.
How can anyone not love Shloime? I appreciate how he and his family have stepped out of the strict mold to share with joy so much information about this insular community for the world to see the most beautiful side of Hasidic culture. I’m sure this is a difficult path, but so important to educating the world. To me, this is a labor of love of which Hashem approve. Thank you and especially to Shloime for finding a Halachic way to share their special ways and your Shabbos experience. Yasher koach!

I’m not Jewish but I find learning how other people live their lives and beliefs to be incredible. Thank you so much for opening the door on all of this!
@@WTP_1776 read the first three words of my reply, genius.
@@herpderpington6309 This account apparently spamming it on all comments.
@@danepher yeah, I’ve noticed that too
Their culture is dangerous and problematic stop this multiculturalism facade. I live in israel and i see what they are doing to this country, dont trust them shaky hands
THANKS FOR THE COMMENT!
Please contact Telegram above👆for life insurance business. ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you for making this documentary. I really enjoyed watching and learning about this obscure but very interesting community.
This is a beautiful video. I knew nothing of this community before watching this. Thank you for introducing me to this extremely interesting way of life.
Thanks for making this. I always wondered about the “inside” and this glimpse has allowed me to appreciate this culture so much more! Part of exploring is understanding, and this shows you are a true explorer!
Thank you for this refreshing, respectful and very educational video! Hugs from Japan!
Wonderfully fascinating. Thank you for this!
I grew up in Monsey, New York, and I experienced the Hasidim people and their communities for 18 years. I appreciate your fine and respectful work, Drew, in showing and explaining these thriving communities.
Thanks for a very fascinating program Drew. Particular thanks to young Abby for sharing her story. Respect!
Beautifully and respectfully done I appreciate your dedication to help us all to understand the culture of this community. As a person of Ashkenazi Ukrainian descent but not living in that lifestyle I am proud of those who have been able to continue in the traditions of our people.
Great video, well said at the end.
This was a very informative and eye-opening video for me! I'm from England and visited some friends in Stamford Hill (An area of London) which happens to be a massive Hasidic community, and I didn't understand a lot about it until watching this video. Thanks for making it, and doing so in such a respectful and open way.
Oh man, that moment the Father says a blessing on his children... tears. Beautiful. I learned so much and am so grateful for this video.
I am a Muslim from India and I am your biggest fan. HATS OFF to you for showing us the reality of various countries. Your content is amazing and keep it up. This video gave alot of information about Jews and their community
Be it known:
Through the Holy Spirit, God has put it on me to preach to those lost in the devil's deceit!
I tell ye, truly, Jesus of Nazareth is the propitiation for the whole world's sins. He is the anointed one, for he is, Jesus Christ. God the Father has raised him from the dead; who is gone into heaven, and is on the right hand of God! Angels and authorities and powers being made subject unto him.
Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life: no one comes to the Father, but by him. They who believe and are baptized with the Holy Spirit shall be saved; but they who believe not shall be damned. For they who believe not on him, shall die in their sins!
I tell ye now to repent of your sins, accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, and you'll receive the gift of the Holy Spirit upon asking the Father!
There are *NO* sub-divisions of Christianity. You're either a disciple of Christ or not. A Christian is someone who follows God's word, not a religion. Who obey the Father and follow his will; not man's nor their own heart's. Unless you keep Jesus' commandments, think not the Holy Spirit will dwell within you!
They who heed this message and did what was stated with an open heart to God...
Read the Holy Bible (KJV) daily and every time before you read, pray to the Father and ask:
"Lord I ask that you give me understanding of your word, that I interpret it the way you want me to, and none of my own. I ask you in Jesus' name, amen."
1 John 2:2 KJV
2 And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world.
Acts 13:26-33 KJV
26 Men and brethren, children of the stock of Abraham, *and whosoever among you feareth God, to you is the word of this salvation sent.*
27 *For they that dwell at Jerusalem, and their rulers, because they knew him not, nor yet the voices of the prophets which are read every sabbath day, they have fulfilled them in condemning him.*
28 And though they found no cause of death in him, yet desired they Pilate that he should be slain.
29 *And when they had fulfilled all that was written of him, they took him down from the tree, and laid him in a sepulchre.*
30 *But God raised him from the dead:*
31 And he was seen many days of them which came up with him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who are his witnesses unto the people.
32 *And we declare unto you glad tidings, how that the promise which was made unto the fathers,*
33 God hath fulfilled the same unto us their children, in that he hath raised up Jesus again; as it is also written in the second psalm, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee.
1 Peter 3:22 KJV
22 Who is gone into heaven, and is on the right hand of God; angels and authorities and powers being made subject unto him.
John 14:6 KJV
6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
Mark 16:16 KJV
16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.
John 8:24 KJV
24 I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins.
Acts 2:38 KJV
38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.
Luke 11:13 KJV
13 If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him?
John 14:21-24 KJV
21 *He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.*
22 Judas saith unto him, not Iscariot, Lord, how is it that thou wilt manifest thyself unto us, and not unto the world?
23 Jesus answered and said unto him, *If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.*
24 He that loveth me not keepeth not my sayings: and *the word which ye hear is not mine, but the Father's which sent me.*
The reason why you added you're muslim seems to suspect that it might sound contradictionary to be muslim and liking jews
Judaism is a peaceful religion , Zionism came after in the 1940's , Zionism is this idea that peaceful Jews are weak and Jews need to fight and defend , its ideology is similar to jihad , the problem is that Zionism is not a real religion , it was created by the British secret service ( Mi6 ) and the Americas ( CIA ) after WW2 , its essentially a man made ideology with secular and communist foundations that calls for a homeland , so its a man made religion just like Mormonism or Freemasonry , but Zionism has its own beauty , its got its own unique history , in any case I respect both Zionist and ultra conservative has disc Jews , both follow the same rules
@@larssrensen4353 for westeners yes they arn't used to muslims and jews love even tho here in morocco jews can pray in our mosques cuz we worship the same good
@@sinabagherisarvestani8924 then do you respect terrorists?? btw jihad means struggle thats it
Fascinating video, thank you!
Drew, thank you brother. More amazing video insights from your world tours, which have educated and continued to thrill me over the last few years. My grandfathers family were originally European Ashkenazi and so this particular episode has really connected with me as I know so little of our prewar history. My sincere respects and thanks to you. 🥰
Shloime!!! Him and Peter Santenello did a FANTASTIC job in their doc... you doing this and just diving even deeper busted it wide open.
Awesome job Drew. Really well produced
Yes Peter did a fantastic job!
Peter’s doc is the reason I came to this one, I find the community fascinating even tho I’m not religious myself. I was adopted and my mother is Jewish, so I’ve always been fascinated by the faith as it’s been a part of my life as it’s a part of my family.
@@drewbinsky I would love to see a video of you and Peter Santanello talking about your experiences filming in this community ❤️
Hey Drew! Thank you so much for this beautiful portrait. I am a German Jew and it took me some time to get in touch with my heritage. You gave a well rounded and beautiful insight in to who we are. Thank you.
This was so informative and respectfully done. Thank you!
Thank you for sharing this. As an extremely modern Jewish woman from London I found this refreshing, respectful and very educational
I am a conservative Muslim and I really enjoyed this video, so fascinating, although we don’t agree theologically I really respect the way that this community hold on to their traditions and their heritage. I love your work Drew ❤❤.
Nobody asked for your appropriators opinion
@@yosefgreen3130 I didn’t know I had to take permission to make comments on a global forum. !!
But isn’t that just the beauty of open-mindedness?!?! You don’t have to agree on ____ but to be open to learning and recognizing and respecting other communities…your perspective is amazing. I wish more people thought like this ❤❤❤
Jews, chrisitans, and Muslims all believe in the same god at the end of the day.
They are as fanatic as Muslims who takes their religion very extreme , I am quite sure they treat their women as bad as Muslims.
Can you see all the rubbish { dirty streets ) you would think this is Egypt or Pakistan
I LOVED seeing all the Yiddish magazines and street signs!!! So cool! I'm a secular Jew living in Melbourne, Australia and learnt Yiddish at my primary school and now speak fluently. There is a thriving and growing Yiddish community here in Melbourne with more and more people choosing to learn Yiddish, not just from the Hasidic community. Great vid!
I absolutely enjoyed every minute of this wonderful documentary ❤
I enjoy watching documentaries and the very best ones are when they touch on all aspects of their lives in each sect. This documentary did that beautifully and gave me a full and better understanding and experience of they way each sect lives and practices Judaism ❤❤❤
Well done and incredibly entertaining and informative.
Absolutely fascinating!
Thanks, Drew! This is perhaps the most balanced and thoughtful video about religion I have ever seen. I especially liked the Shabbat segment; would that everyone did the same thing. Shalom!
Shalom and thank you!!
Religion is a collective delusion. These poor people don't even live in our world.
.............There is SHALOM in the SAR HASHALOM, THE PRINCE OF PEACE, MESSIAH JESUS, the Lord, The Son of GOD. MESSIAH JESUS is THE RISEN PASSOVER LAMB OF GOD. Ref: ISAIAH 9:6,7; 53:1-12; PHILIPPIANS 4:7. Amen.
@@scottdavidlucas5330 scary 😨
I am Turkish... Müslim ... I was awestruck by this beautiful religion/culture and felt felt incredibly envious of the beautiful family and their Shabat dinner at the end of the video ... very touching ... and simply beautiful... ❤️❤️❤️ culture... tradition...community connectedness are critical for human existence... kudos!
As a Christian-raised atheist I also feel envious of Shabbat dinners. Here in Germany we at least preserve a tiny little bit of this kind of spirit by keeping almost all shops closed on Sundays and most people not working on Sundays. And I am very glad we do.
Do you know how they consider women as inferior human beings. Perhaps the video doesn't quite explore that point clearly from birth to womanhood.
What a lovely thing to say esspecialy about a different religion
Awesome content and amazing channel . Keep up the good work!
Your videos are amazing thankyou for creating
This is an extraordinary piece, I feel privileged to have been given an insight into the traditions, teachings and community.

Thank you for such a fascinating informative vlog about a community I now realise I knew very little about. Congratulations for carrying such a challenging reporting job and thanks to all those within the various Jewish communities who helped you make and tell us a very interesting story.
Thank you for this video!
I have the day off and stumbled across this video. I love so much about it. My favorite thing was learning about the Hasidic thought of right vs. left (when putting on the Bekishe). "One should always choose kindness over judgement."
That is beautiful. ❤
I like this fellow I've seen him interviewed before and he does a very good job of explaining the customs of the Hasidic community. He's a really kind engaging guy who invites the whole world into his home to promote understanding, celebrate the joy of his family & religion & to share it with others. It's a beautiful thing.
