wow!!! Paul's personality as Rabbi Singer describes it, is very accurate! And like Paul are most of the Christians leaders in general, is an entitlement that they give to themselves when their followers feed their ego with flattered words, attention and applauses accompanied with the word "amen" every time they say something even void.
Have you considered making short clips or short videos of the caller questions? I would watch all the clips regarding questions about the Messiah, but I don't have time to watch the entire video to wait for the small segments about the Messiah. We may disagree, but I do enjoy hearing about the ancient and current Jewish views regarding the Messiah.

Tovia is outstanding when he preaches to the choir, or when speaking to a caller who doesn't know Scripture, like himself. But strangely never debates anyone who does.
I’ve seen him do it plenty of times. Even if you were right, it wouldn’t be because he lacks confidence. He’s well prepared at all times to defend Judaism and call out Christianity as idolatry.

This is the first episode I have seen, where the Rabbi has completely dismissed portions of the question at hand, making it a totally different question. For example, the very first question is asking, "How do we know Moses actually spoke to god?" which is the title of the episode, and the question isn't really answered. The person asking probably shouldn't have included anything about Christianity or applying the same principles of "debunking I suppose?" to the question itself. There are a few other questions where this happened, and I wonder how this could have been okay with anyone...
He did answer that - his and the Jews' ancestors were all witnesses to the fact that G-d spoke to Moses. They all experienced it and all told their children ....

You COMPLETELY SIDE STEPPED the callers question regarding how do we know the writings of Moses aren’t made up when you believe the NT was made up! COMPLETELY SIDE STEPPED! 16:19
Let me make this a little bit easy for your understanding... Christianity says you must believe in the NT or you get punished by god by going to hell and so forth. Judaism says.... If you are part of the political body of Israel, these are our national stories. If you choose not to believe them that is fine and god will not punish, condemn you, or send you to hell and what ever. But it does mean you can't be part of the political body / nation of Israel. Judaism is not about soul salvation, nor is Judaism another path towards enlightenment. These things are not the purpose of Judaism. Judaism is about community relationship with god; which is in such manner that all the generations benefit. With a punishment of death the burden of evidence needs to be much harder. There is the punishment of death for saying the NT is made up. There is no punishment of death for saying the OT is made up. The validity of the NT is based upon the validity of the OT. What the Rabbi says is this.... The OT can't support what the NT says because the two cosmologies are in to much of disagreement with each other. If the OT is wrong than the NT is wrong. The NT can't be right; while the OT is wrong because the NT is based upon the OT. Myths are understood stories; which attempt to teach abstract and complex truths. The spoken truth statements within the Myths of Judaism seem more real and valid than the spoken truth statements within the Myths of Christianity. We do not live in a Gnostic Reality, god is not a Narcissist, and a virgin conception is fully natural and not supernatural. The whole Christian religion is about pleasing the Narcissist god.

Startinng at 3 minutes is “How can we be sure that the Tanakh Jewish text is from God” (which includes the Torah written by Moses) Did Moses exist? Proof 1. The Hebrews experienced what is written in Tanakh and their descendants are alive today to confirm what has been taught from father to son and to daughter. Proof 2. The rabbi descended from Aaron who is the brother of Moses meaning Moses was a real person. Proof 3. The return of Jews to Israel is a prophecy in Tanakh that every person can see today. Comment. Isaiah 7:14 as translated in most Christian Bibles is given as proof of deliberate mistranslation of the Hebrew Tanakh meaning people who mistranslated the Tanakh Jewish scriptures could not have been inspired by God.
Karaite Dr. Nehemia Gordon has enlightened me greatly on the fallacies of the Rabbinic strain. SO much doesn't make sense with Pharisees, and so much makes sense with Karaites 💙
Where is it in the Tanakh that Jewishness is decided matrilinearly? Is it there or in Talmud, midrash? Did all rabbis concur? Next, does R. Singer ever discuss the fact that Judaism is not about individual salvation but the salvation of the whole people collectively? Where does that leave those Jews who are rightfully concerned about their individual salvation or enlightenment? Is there no place in Judaism for them?
@avrahamisaacs2593 I guess you can do that but it's inaccurate. It wasn't until the kingdom split before such distinctions were made between bloodlines and goy traditions that had no place in the kingdom. I'm fairly certain that the gods of Jezebel were triune.
Both breathtaking and mind-boggling testimony from a well educated and very intelligent Bible scholar. So now let's turn our attention to the origins of Judaism and all those stories and characters in the ancient Hebrew 'scriptures' and Christian Old Testament. If Judaism has the correct understanding of God and God's relationship with ALL of His living creations throughout an infinite and eternal universe, why is the nation of Israel and the descendants of Abraham dependent on support from Christians for its very existence and survival??? Could it be that God is patiently waiting for the suffering and the relentlessly persecuted Jews to accept Jesus Christ and His teachings as the solution to the problems of mankind throughout recorded history?? I will patiently await Rabbi Singer's answers. But when I finally come before my Creator and FATHER in Heaven, I believe any judgment on my life will be based on how I TREATED my fellow man, and NOT on my beliefs, knowledge, religion and understanding of philosophy and theology. 😇
He is not breathtaking nor is he in anyway intelligent in Bible scholar. He’s misleading Gods children and pulling them away from the truth! That’s what you call the apostasy that’s happening before the Antichrist appears.
" " At 56:00... Jewish identity is through the mother: well Yitzhak and Yishmael.... If a Jew is identified from his father, then both yitzchak and Yishmael would be Jews considering Abraham is the first Jew. But yitzchak is considered to be the true Jewish descendant of Abraham because of Sarah... No?
Rabbi Rashi on Genesis 17:20 והקמתי את בריתי AND I WILL ESTABLISH MY COVENANT WITH HIM - Why is this stated? Is it not already written (Genesis 17:9) “as for thee, thou shalt keep My Covenant, thou and thy seed etc.”? But since is said, (Genesis 17:7) and I will establish My Covenant between Me and thee and thy seed after thee in their generations”, *it might be inferred that the children of Ishmael and the children of Keturah (who are all descendants of Abraham) are included in this promise of the establishment of the Covenant,* therefore it states here (Genesis 17:19) “And I will establish My Covenant with him (Isaac), not with the others” (cf. Sanhedrin 59b). If so, why is there a repetition of the statement that the covenant will be established with Isaac in the words (Genesis 17:21) ואת בריתי אקים את יצחק “but My Covenant will I establish with Isaac”? But it is repeated in order to add the words אשר תלד so as to teach that he was holy from his birth (Shabbat 137b). Another explanation of why 5:21 is repeated is: *R. Aba said, “from here Scripture draws a logical conclusion regarding the son of the Mistress (Sarah) from what is said regarding the son of the handmaid (Hagar): It is written (Genesis 17:20) “Behold I have blessed him and will make him fruitful”, and this refers to Ishmael: Surely then, it follows logically that “I must establish my covenant (of blessing) with Isaac also!” (Genesis Rabbah 47:5)*
Quoting Rabbi Chananel ben Chushiel, another influential Jewish scholar, who worked in the 11th-century Tunisia, he writes about Genesis 17:20: ונתתיו לגוי גדול, “and I will make him into a great nation.” Rabbeinu Chananel wrote: we note that this prophecy was fulfilled for them only after 2333 years. [Rabbi Chavell writes that this is an accurate number seeing that Avraham was circumcised in the year 2047 after the creation. The Islamic religion was founded in the year 4374 after the creation. Allow for another ten years until it started spreading throughout the world and you will arrive at the number 2333 after Avraham was circumcised, the date of this prediction.] This delay was not due to their sins as they had been looking forward to fulfillment of the prophecy during all those years. Once the prophecy came true Islam conquered the civilized world like a whirlwind. We, the Jewish people, lost our position of pre-eminence in the world due to our sins. Seeing that at the time of writing we have yearned for the fulfillment of the prophecy that we will be redeemed for a mere 1330 years, we certainly have no reason to abandon hope that it will be fulfilled. The part between bracket is the editors quoting Rabbi Charles Ber Chavel, from the 20th-century US, so in total you have not one, not two, but three rabbis, quite influential at that, and stretching a period of 1000 years and many continents, making a direct connection between Genesis 17:20 and Islam

If I were a Narcissist, I would feel uncomfortable with Jewish Cosmology. If I were a Psychopath, I would feel uncomfortable with Jewish Cosmology. If were one of those who believed that might or status makes right, I would feel uncomfortable with Jewish Cosmology. If I were wrapped up in the gnostic point of view, I would feel uncomfortable with Jewish Cosmology. There might be no god in that void; which the Universe of more than two trillion galaxies is expanding into, there might not be a something that knows the Billions of different species which have existed on the planet, and Judaism might hold onto non historical facts; however, Judaism seems to me, to be the cosmological system that is the most conducive to healthy sociatial mental health. Science tells me that there is a G-d; while no religion does this for me. However what Jewish Cosmology is to me, is an outline of how humanity can be in the healthiest most beneficial relationship with the what, that created and is the master of everything; which science studies. In 500 years, the departed souls of psychologically healthy people are not going to be concerned with the salvation of their own souls or the state of their enlightenment; but rather they will be concerned with that which regards the state of humanity at that time in the future. I live in Ukraine, a country that if you do not know… is being attacked by a Crazed Narcissist, who happens to be in a position of political power. I think humanity is reaching that point where it has about had it with Narcissists in positions of political power. That which we need???…. We need a religion that facilitates culture development; which reduces the likelihood of a Narcissist or Psychopath obtaining unrestrained political power.
I really like your post. I know only a bit about the war in Ukraine. I hope you & those you love are safe & stay safe . . . . (And indeed; Putin & many international leaders, & corporate CEOs, are psychopaths. It puts us average folks in a horrible position; not only all the wars, but climate change, as well....) FWIW, I was raised as an atheist Jew. My parents were around 30 years old at the end of WW2, & like many of their generation, the Jewish idea that G-d's will is made known thru history, made being devout very distasteful to them after they learned how all their European relatives died. Nevertheless the Jewish ethics of standing for Justice were strong in my family, & we did the most important holidays, except for Shabbos. My dad had a Yeshivah education in his youth. I was taught Jewish values & that I could decide whether or not to be religious when I was an adult. I was taught that kindness & justice mattered more than beliefs since religious people do use religion to excuse war & murder. As it happened (for me) I explored lots of spiritual paths in my youth (I'm 71 now) but not Christianity. I always identified as a Jew, & never suffered over what to believe in. I found divinity in the wilderness, not in the synagogue, so I started w Native American stuff, & became skilled at yoga & Buddhist meditation. By now I've come full circle. I am in love w Kabbala. But my point in all this is; the Asian paths start w Truth & come to acquire Love as aligned w Truth through enlightenment. Buddhism & Hinduism seek the Truth. To use a Buddhist frame, the Buddha Nature is the only thing which is Permanent, & it underlies everything, even though the illusions of change in this universe hide the Permanence & Immortality of the Buddhist Nature beneath the illusions of change. It is very similar to the idea that G-d is concealed in this world. The Hebrew word for "the world" or "the universe" has the same 3 letter root as the Hebrew for the verb "to conceal" (haolam, & h'halem) so an accurate translation of the Hebrew for the universe is to call it the concealment, and what the universe conceals is the creator. But the Buddhist works towards enlightenment in solitude, or in monasteries whose members are replenished by outsiders joining in, & not by families & parents having children within the monastic community. The western paths of Judaism & Christianity start with Love & relationships instead of starting with Truth, as the Asian paths do. (I don't think of Islam as a very loving, nor a very truthful, religion. It isn't hopeless. Medieval Christianity waged war between Christian sects, & burned heretics & witches, & maybe Islam can mature w time; but they have to do it. It can't be done by outsiders. Maybe in a thousand years . . . but I digress.) Anyway; from a different starting place I make the same conclusions you do; that Judaism presents the teachings for how to make a just society more than any other cosmology. (Another sidestep; Rupert Spira is a modern teacher of nonduality who translates Buddhist & Hindu teachings so westerners can absorb them. The guided meditations he leads are very powerful for personal growth; but his community does not address how to heal the world & Judaism addresses this question directly.) Those folks don't realize that Jewish mysticism is also a path of nonduality, but unlike the Asian traditions it starts w Love & relationships, & Service to build a healthy community, & not w solitary meditation to attain enlightenment. See how we arrived at similar conclusions but from different starting places? All those folks in Rupert Spira's workshops are very advanced in doing inner work, & I know a bond of love nourishes his work, but when I do RUclips posts to ask his followers; how do we use this work to heal the world; nobody has any answers to that question. It is a missing piece on those paths, IMO.

This means that in pray the best name to use is LORD and his other names which are His attributes. To understand the reason Google Rabbi Tovia Singer: Why is taking the name of God in vain unforgivable?
YHWH. That's the "name" of "God". And this word is symbolic, not just a word. It actually represents "God" in the sense of "life" and "creation" or "breath" and "the word". Consider the word, and how it is said and how the air moves when you say it. It begins in your chest, in your lungs, with "breath" or "life", and it moves from their into the throat, where it begins to find FORM. The next step is into the mouth, where tongue articulates sound, especially the "hidden vowels"....... And from the mouth, to the lips, which give further form to the breath, an finally, out into the world, as "creation" or "word" . And "God" gave us this power of creation, through words. Genesis is symbolic in this sense. The Tenak begins with a clue as to how to interpret it. It is directly telling us that THIS is the work of MAN, Man's interpretation of "God's word". The stories and narratives were for children, the uneducated and poor and uninitiated. But the elite and authors and high priests always understood that this was the creation of man, despite what is written in Tenak. And they left clues throughout, for those with incite, on how to interpret the text symbolically. Which IS the underlying purpose. NOT the actual literal interpretation and narrative. This is the symbolic origin of the "name of God". And why that word was used. As Genesis tells us right away, "the word is God". And God grants life, and makes us in his own creation as "creators". And we create with the word and the "God given" breath. I am not sure when it became taboo to actually say that word. But my best guess would be during the Hasmoneon period when modern Judaism as we know it was born. When the Tenak was actually compiled. redacted and edited into one continuous tome with a narrative. Prior to that, there were bits and pieces of writings, many variations, many beliefs, even some polytheistic. But the word "YHWH" has deep symbolic meaning and it is directly correlated with the description of God in Genesis. All though, it is fairly clear to me that the authors of Tenak understood full well that this was not to be taken literally and that the majority of the book is symbolic, metaphorical and allegorical. Unfortunately, they, like other elite and rulers, didn't mention this to the great unwashed, uneducated masses. And the Orthodox today do exactly what the Pharisees, who were a minor sect in Roamn Judah, used to do. Pander to the poor and uneducated, pushing supersition and supernatural mumbo jumbo. The Sadducees on the other hand were the aristocracy and controlled the temple. They strictly used Torah for legal purposes, to the letter, but they also denied the supernatural, they denied resurrection, angels, ghosts, spirits. And they seem to have understood fully that Tenak is man's interpretation of "God's word" and not actually the divine work of a creator. But yea, thats YHWH. You can "say it" without actually saying it. Without making the actual sounds if you want. Or just say it because, despite what Orthodox believe, nothing will happen, the Hashem won't care at all, and it isn't at all unforgivable. That is just nonsense superstition. It may have even began as a meditative mantra. If you repeat it over and over in a meditative state, you can use it to control your breathing and to delve into the esoteric "traditions" that Judaism is founded on, which derive from Egypt, Babylon and Greece mostly.
Maybe. But Harry Potter also doesn't contradict itself. So a book not contradicting itself doesn't prove the book is a divine work. Unfortunately, Rabbi's arguments and standards for judging Tenak are nothing but apologetics. But one need not believe Tenak is the divine word of God in order to find it significant and important and influential. It remains our ancestors best efforts at understanding the universe and the nature of the creator of this universe. Along with a great deal of life wisdom and esoteric knowledge. Tenak is all these things and more. But the literal word of "God" it is not. And our ancestors understood, at least the elite and aristocracy of Judean society understood this. Unfortunately, the literalist interpretation was just one of many interpretations by our ancestors. Modern Orthodox take their tradition from the Pharisees who were a minority sect who pandered to the poor and uneducated and pushed superstition and supernatural. As opposed to the Sadducees who were the aristorcracy, dominant sect that controlled the temple, and they denied the supernatural, resurrection, a conscious afterlife and so on...... So modern Orthodox traditions weren't even the dominant tradition in the 1st century CE Judah. Anyway, Tenak is still an invaluable book. Just invaluable for very different reasons than the literalist interpretation suggests.
Hello rabbi. Try not to delete this one please. Why did the Jews get the Passover before the law??? Why did God arrange it that the Passover would come before the law??
The law isn't from "God" it's man's intepretation of the universe and their attempt to understand the nature of the creator. That's it. Tenak is a wonderful book, compiled by my ancestors, our ancestors, as their best effort to understand the universe and nature of the creature, to the best of their ability with the information available at the time. Passover came before the law because that's how our ancestors WROTE and edited Torah and Tenak, which didn't exist in the form we know them in today until the 2nd century BCE, despite what the Orthodox fundamentalists believe. We know today that Tenak is the work of man. We know today that these superstitions and laws are antiquated and are no longer factually binding. Orthodox give a false claim that their version of Judaism is the authentic and genuine one, and no others are legitimate. This is wholly incorrect and contradicts the practices of our ancestors in ancient Judah, across the board. The modern Orthodox simply follow ONE literalist tradition, from the Pharisees, who were a minority sect of superstitious literalist fundamentalists who pandered to the poor and uneducated pushing their supernatural and superstitious claims. The Sadducees, who the modern Orthodox speak of in scorn, because they understand the Sadducees WERE the dominant sect in ancient Judah. They controlled the temple and the social order. And while they were strict Torah adherents, they did not use oral Torah and they did not believe in the supernatural and superstition. They denied ghosts, spirits, angels, a conscious afterlife, because they were educated and rational people relative to the period. Pharisees were not. Pharisees were the equivalent of modern Evangelical Christians. And aside from the prosthelitizing, modern Orthodox are not so different. Antiquated and superstitious, as is their interpretation, which only goes back around 2,000 years, no more. Anyway, Tenak was written by man. So now consider your question again. Why does passover come before the law? Because that is how our ancestors decided to write and compile the tome we today known as Tenak. There is no other reason, regardless of what the Orthodox would tell you.
@@jessereichbach588 thanks for the reply. So would it be safe to say that you have been raised as a Jew but have since chosen atheism as your religious belief. Personally I am Christian. I guess if I were true to myself I would call myself an Israelite. Not an orthodox Jewish nor a Christian as far as what Christianity professes. I believe that both books were inspired contrary to this Channel. But I would say that after careful studies on my own I have concluded that God is the author of the bible. A book that is 1500 years in the making with over 40 writers who penned the book over different periods of era and culture. We see one story. The fall of man to the hope of the salvation through the messiah and the kingdom restored back to God as the king over all. My question about the Passover coming before the law. Is because I here them say that the law is the only thing they need. 617 Noahide laws. But they fail to recognize that the messiah’s sacrifice of a ransom was to happen before any law would be relevant.
@@jessereichbach588 You said, "The law isn't from "God" it's man's interpretation of the universe.....". You are making that statement like you were there on Mt. Sinai with Moses and the people who heard God's Voice. I understand that you do not "believe" that, but at the same time it would be IMPOSSIBLE for you to "Know" that the Law is not from God, UNLESS God spoke to you "personally"that He did not give the Law. I"m not trying to be combative or difficult with you, I am just speaking the Truth. Unless God spoke to you "personally" and said "I did not give the Law to Moses", then it is impossible for you to "Know" that the Law is NOT from God.
@@7Truth7Wins7 Part 1 of 2. So to start, you are correct, I wasn't at Mt. Sinai, but then, neither were the authors of Torah/Tanach. So why do you accept their claim but doubt mine? I can at least be about 99% certain, which in this life is the best we ca nhope for. Epistemologically speaking, the only certainty is uncertainty. So you are correct, no one can know anything absolutely. And that especially goes for faith based claims. Which yours is. When there is absolutely zero evidence. I mean, you'd have to prove Moses even really existed before you could prove everything happened at Mt. Sinai like it says. If Moses existed, IF he led an exodus out of Egypt, which is unlikely, and if he actually went to Mt. Sinai at all, it's far more likely that he chiseled some stone himself at the top, writing his own story, then presenting it. But that is even extremely unlikely. And all evidence suggests these are stories about a man who might have lived, but if he did lived very differently than the mythology asserts. But this is something I and most Jews today, figure out even before we have our Bar Mitzvahs. It is possible however to know that the Pentateuch has errors, anachronisms, contradictions, and the handprints of man all over it. it's possible to know that the history of the Tanach is inaccurate and that there is no evidence for most of it, and evidence AGAINST a fair amount of it, but very little evidence for it. It's possible to know that the Pentateuch and the extended books came in different variations, which we have material text from, which was different than what is in the current Tanach. And it's possible to date those codex to an earlier period than the language used in much of Tanach. It's possible to determine all of this. And IF Tanach is supposed to be the "word of GOD' and IF Tanach is supposed to be perfect and infallible, than why is it imperfect and fallible? Why are the laws themselves, largely UNJUST and UNRIGHTEOUS compared to modern standard? Why can we track it's evolution and creation? Why do we see variation up to the 1st century? Why are the earliest fragments from Torah that we have from the 2nd century BCE, about 1,000 years after Torah was supposedly written? And why do those scrolls from the 2nd century BCE appear more like the Samaritan pentateuch than the Judean Pentateuch? Why are some of the laws so bad that if someone tried applying them to society today, 90% of the human population would violently revolt against them? All of this and more is possible to know. So what is left? You have I'm sure heard the saying fantastic claims require fantastic evidence? Well this is one of those occasions where fantastic evidence is required to prove the fantastic claims of Tanach. And you can't use Tanach to prove Tanach. That is the utter definition of unfalsifiable. So while you are correct and that I can't know with 100% certainty that Moses wasn't handed the Torah at Mt. Sinai, I can be about 99% sure based on ALL of the actual evidence, the actual history with disagrees with the biblical history, the genealogy and genetics which disagree with the biblical narrative, the archaeological evidence which largely disagrees and contradicts the biblical narrative. It's the same way I can be 99% certain the book of Daniel wasn't written until the 2nd century BCE. Like the claim of Darius the Mead being King prior to Cyrus. There is no Darius the Mead in recorded history. not in the Babylonian, Greek, Persian, Egyptian or Assyrians records. Plus the entire dating of Daniel is off by about 150 years or something. See, the only evidence you have for Moses receiving Torah at Mt Sinai is Torah. That's it. And as far as we can tell, torah is mythology, a loose retelling of history wrapped in fiction. Which means it is man written. Now you can try to argue that it was "divinely inspired" like Christians do with their gospels. But that is not the Orthodox/Rabbinical claim. The Orthodox Rabbinical claim is that these are gods words. And that it is perfect, infallible. All because the book itself says so. So, you are correct. I can only be about 99.9% sure that Moses didn't receive the Torah at Mt. Sinai. On top of all that, the earliest mentions we have of Moses are from the 4th century BCE, 1000 years after Moses supposedly lived. And the Egyptian and Greek sources describe a very different Moses than is described in the Torah. A very different one indeed. And oddly enough, there is no mention of anything in Torah basically in either Greek or Egyptian records. So if the Greeks and Egyptians were writing about Moses, why weren't they using Torah as a source if it existed in its current form? You would think that would be their go to source about the man. But no They had their own records. And they had never heard of the narrative that is currently in Tanach. These myths obviously go back a very long time. To the Bronze Age. But these characters weren't unique to Israelites, the entire region told these stories in many different variations. No different than how Greeks, Egyptians and Mesopotamians did. We know factually that El was the head of the Canaanite pantheon and that he had 70 children, all combined called the Elohim. Which was a pantheon. That's what the Elohim actually was. El was a solar deity. Like Apollo or Ra. The early israelites worshipped Baal. Who the Egyptians called Set. Like Seth form the Cain and Abel stories. Go read the Osiris and Set myth next to the Cain and Abel story, and then consider "Seth's" appearance right after. Anyway, eventually YhvH worshippers from Arabia made contact with Canaanites. And Baal's name changed to YhVH in Israelite territory. They even divorced El from his wife Ashara, and married her to YhVH. And we have archaaeology in Israel that shows this. A tablet made out to YhVh and his Ashara. Yes, early Israelites were pagan, polytheists, that slowly evolved into henotheism, the worship of one god above other gods, which eventually turned into monotheism. That likely didn't occur until the reign of Hezekiah, with the Josian reforms. Which if you read Josia's narrative, it plainly states. He burned all the other priests and high places. He literally made human sacrifices. Not only of other god's priests, but of other YhVH temples. And they forced the entire region to come worship in Jerusalem. Why? Because the temples is where wealth was collected, like taxes. Your temple made your city money. And this made Jerusalem the center of the entire region. And this is also the basic story Samaritans tell. This is basically what caused the schism between Samaria and Judah. And the Samaritans, unlike Orthodox Jews, accept Jews as being Israelites. they just disagree about where the holy places were. They still actually have the tribes of Ephraim and Manasseh. unfortunately whomever was remaining of the tribe of Benjamin died in the early 20th century. And they of course still have the tribe of Levi. Jews only have Levi and Yisrael these days. All our tribal affiliation got absorbed into the identity of the Kingdom of Judah. Which is what the word Jew means. People from the Kingdom of Judah, not the tribe directly nor the faith practice of the Kingdom, called Judaism. Judaism is what Jews do. Not what 20% of Jews do. Anyway, Jews are descended of all tribes, as are all Isrelites. But we just stopped perpetuating tribal identity beyond Levi. Samarians didn't. But they mostly have died off and there are only 1,000 left. I always love it when the excuse is used, well look how few Jews exist, the Torah says you will remain few in number. And Torah says in the end there will be a righteous few. And Orthodox think it must mean us. Well, there are 15 million of us and like 1,000 Samaritans. So tell me, who does the biblical narrative better fit? Not that I think they are anything different than us. They too are reading a myth. Because we are cousins. But Orthodox deny they are who they say they are and call them frauds, Assyrians. And sure, they are mixed with Assyrians, and now Lebanese and Syrians. But we are mixed with Greeks, Romans, Persians, Egyptians, Spaniards, Italians and a host of other people. So who cares? continued....
@@7Truth7Wins7 Part 2 of 2. Sorry it went a bit long heh. No disrespect meant honestly. But these are facts, to the best of our ability to determine facts. Some of it is my speculation you are correct, but I tried to point out those parts where it is speculation. However, that speculation is BASED on the evidence itself. And I'm genuinely not trying to change your beliefs. Just trying to get you to understand mine, and that of most people today, most Jews. I hope you can see where I'm coming from then. And why it would be impossible for me to think or believe otherwise, as it is for most Jews alive today. If you would like to learn about biblical archaeology, actual archaaeology, not theology pretending to be archaeology, there's a couple of good channels on YT. Mythvision and the Gnostic Informant and Digital Hammurabi. I'm not telling you what to believe. I am just telling you what we have evidence for and what we don't. I am ignorant. I know that. Which is why I only claim to know things I can know based on evidence. it is in fact Orthodox position which is arrogant. it's Orthodox position that claims to know something with certainty, with absoluteness, that is, by any measure of lived experience, impossible to know. Which is the utter definition of arrogance. So I will give you this, yes, there is a tiny fraction of a possibility that Moses received Torah at Mt. Sinai. And there is about 99.999% probability that the Torah and Tanach we have wasn't written until the 1st millennia BCE, at minimum 800 years after Moses supposedly left Egypt. We also have zero evidence for an Exodus the size of the one described in the text. It's also impossible for that size population to have even existed at that time as we can easily determine population size using modern means and science. Some think maybe there was a smaller Exodus, or continuous exodus', as certainly Canaanites, Hysos and then israelites lived in Egypt for long periods. Egypt actually controlled Canaan when the Exodus supposedly occurred. So consider that. Moses fled Egypt with the Israelites, just to escape to an Egyptian colony? That makes little sense. Egypt gave up Canaan in around 1200 BCE. And that's really the first time we see the Israelites appear anywhere. Anyway, like I said, mythology. Loose history wrapped in legend and fiction. And that's ok. It doesn't nullify the existence of Hashem. it only makes the text written by men who didn't actually hear the words of God, but thought of these things themselves. And that's ok too. This is Judaism I'm afraid. Especially in the 21st century. When only 10% of modern Jews are Orthodox, and something like 70% don't accept Torah as the direct word of god, but something less divine and certain. It's not that we don't use Torah. its a wonderful guide, our guide, to so many things. But the law in it is from the long gone Kingdom of Judah, and those laws were antiquated and unjust in the 1st century CE, let alone in this century. Imagine if they tried implementing Torah law on people today. What woud happen? 90% of the population would violently revolt. And you are telling me those laws came from Hashem the creator of the universe? Impossible. Sorry. Can't fathom it. Seems completely absurd. And all evidence would agree. Anyway, so yes you are right, there is a 0.0000000009% chance Moses received the Torah directly from Hashem at Mt. Sinai. But we will never actually know for certain. I know which way I HAVE to go. it's not like I have a choice. Can you believe in unicorns? Probably not right. Why? Because all your experience and knowledge tells you they don't and can't exist. Maybe you leave the small possibility open that they used to exist or something like that, but otherwise, what's the difference between unicorns and the idea that Torah was directly spoken by God to man? Or honestly any of the supernatural elements that we know today to be impossible. Resurrection? No thanks. No way. haha. I wouldn't want to be even if I could be. The caste system in Jewish society was completely unjust. And it would be again if it ever became real again, if the temple ever was rebuilt. Imagine modern Jews living in a caste like that? No thanks haha. That's why Christianity happened. Because the upper caste, the Priests and Levites got corrupt, greedy and power hungry, which is what happens with every caste system across the globe throughout history. It never ends well. Well, that's that. I mean, believe what you want to believe. But I know what most Jews let alone most people on earth believe. And it's not the Orthodox narrative. It's why most of us aren't very concerned with Halakha.. Because, our ancestors made that stuff up. We really don't have to do it, there will be no repercussions. And if there are. I mean, whatever. I'll just tell Hashem he made it very difficult by leaving all that evidence that contradicts the Torah narrative. I'm sure he'll understand. He's loving and compassionate right? Well, I mean, not in the Pentateuch so much. Certainly not in Genesis and Exodus. And certainly not in parts of the prophets. He seems kind of jealous and vindictive. Why would an omnipotent god be jealous and vindictive? That never made sense to me. What could he possibly be upset about or jealous about? Attention? Please. That's so narcissistic and vain. We know there must be a creator to the universe, an eternity, a single origin point, and we call that Hashem, but that's all we can really deduce in reality. The rest is our best effort to undestand, and our ancestors best efforts to understand. Their ideas, how they perceived things. So yes we learn from them. But we don't have to be like them. What does Torah mean? Teaching and guidance. The root at least is teach or guide. It came to mean other things later, like "law" and mishna and midrash and talmud. But in reality, all torah is, is teaching and learning. That is Torah. The text is a part of Torah but it isn't itself all of Torah. Laws can change and they do. And we learn things over time. The idea that we can't go beyond the text, beyond the Pentateuch, is in itself anathema to Torah. I will explain. Restricting our "Torah" or "learning" to this single text, limits Torah. Limits the act of learning. Learning is life. Death is the end of learning. When you limit Torah, when you limit life, you get death. I honestly don't know if the text was ever intended to be what it has become. But either way. The principle of the immutable Pentateuch, the text, not Torah, but just the text, seems misunderstood. I know what the text says and I can't argue with that. But someone could have quite easily just added that in whenever they felt like it. That's beside the point. But if Torah is learning and teaching it can not be limited to a single text. That is death of learning. That is stagnation. That is the opposite of Torah, of learning. Which is why oral Torah was created. Yes, created. But whomever decided oral torah needed to be limited by the 5 books of Moses, well, I don't know if that was really in the best interest of torah. This is part of course is just my opinion. But if we take Torah in its truest sense, then we can't restrict that to any text. We can however apply that to the immutability of certain beliefs, as in the one single creator of the universe. That is a belief we can hold to guide us, that doesn't limit torah. Doesn't limit learning. Fact is, our ancestors thought learning certain things was dangerous. They believed in divination and magic, and word magic especially. I mean, they still do in some orthodox circles. It's why you aren't supposed to say the Y-V- name. Magic. Im serious. They believe contemplating eternity is dangerous, as you can get lost in the abyss of your mind, and lose your ego when perceiving yourself so small and insignificant. And from a psychological perspective they have a point. So it's a warning. Good warning. A rule though? A rule with punishment of like stoning or whatever? Um that kind of thing, those kinds of things. Now if we understand law to mean the law of the time rather than any one specific law, it makes a ton more sense. Then if we put that in context, it means, follow the law, whatever that law is at the time. Yes, it often says the law of Moses. But again, our ancestors couldn't imagine the law becoming what it is today. For it's time, well, they were well ahead of their time. But that was 2500+ years ago. We've gone beyond the ppoint of ahead of their time. We are now way ahead of that. And in reality many of the laws of moses, today are just unjust and unrighteous. Some are outright horrific. Any religion that doesn't evolve, surely gets lost in the past.
And Jesus saith unto him, See thou tell no man; but go, show thyself to the priest, and offer the gift that Moses commanded, for a testimony unto them.
You need to realize, research, and accept, that NOWHERE did God ever mention the "Jesus" character to us, NOWHERE did He tell us that we need to be "saved", and NOWHERE did He tell us that He requires HUMAN BLOOD (a purely pagan ritual that God ABHORS!!) as atonement for our sins. NO FURTHER SCRIPTURES were given to mankind by God AFTER Mt. Sinai, therefore, Christianity absolutely did NOT come from God! PLEASE buy a Hebrew Bible (says "Stone Edition TANACH" on the cover), and Rabbi Tovia Singer's books, as well as Rabbi Stuart Federow's book "Judaism and Christianity: A Contrast", to help you understand why Christianity absolutely did NOT come from God.
could you please explain this: Christianity says that the crucifixion was the most terrible crime in human history and also the most beautiful event in history.
Can't speak for xtians, but just so you know crucifixion was just the Romans" form of executing their criminals; millions of criminals were crucified. If the method had be the gallows, maybe the xtians would feel gallows were something special, rather than two beams of wood ? Hopefully, a xtian will answer your question from their point of view about venerating the symbol of crucifixion. It's all idolatry and blasphemy. All that stuff is forbidden.
@@avalerie4467 I too have mentioned this. It's a death penalty form of execution. Not a sacrifice alter as performed by the ancient Israelite people. Also Jesus was beaten to near death which caused blemishes. No blemishes should be on the animal. Jesus died for nothing. He should have taken a slap on the wrist and said ok I am sorry I won't be this stupid again.
I think Rabbi dodged the first question. Basically, he spent most of his answer talking about the unreliability of the New Testament. The caller understood that point. He then says the prophets and the writings have been compared to Torah to see if they are reliable and that they were. However, the question was whether Torah is the word of God. He didn't demonstrate that.. He basically said we should trust the Jewish people's claim.
G_d wrote the Torah before Creation. G_d encoded the Torah/Tanach, The Hebrew letters and the Hebrew language so there is much hidden in plain. Hebrew is the Sacred language, and the Torah is The Book of Life and the Blue Print of Creation.
God said trust no man. And why these people are trusting such a man as Tovia is beyond me. The majority of the Jewish people do not believe Christ ever came to this earth. They believe in God but do not believe God came in the flesh. It’s sad. John 8:43 43Why do ye not understand my speech? even because ye cannot hear my word. 44Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it. 45And because I tell you the truth, ye believe me not. 46Which of you convinceth me of sin? And if I say the truth, why do ye not believe me?
How do we Know that Moses Really Heard From God? You don't "Know". It is IMPOSSIBLE for you to "Know" UNLESS, ..... #1. You were there at Mt. Sinai, or #2. God has revealed that to you by the Revelation of His Spirit.
Question: “how do we know Moses heard from God?” Answer: “because Matthew lied, and you know, the mystery of creation. And my book is better than yours.”
Exodus 31:18 18 When the Lord finished speaking to Moses on Mount Sinai, he gave him the two tablets of the covenant law, the tablets of stone inscribed *by the finger of God*. Revelation 22:13 13 I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End.
@@janishart5128Christ was mentioned in every book of the Bible. You’ve been lied too and you’ve been deceived! Millions are blinded from the truth bc they don’t want to seek truth but believe in lies!
How Do We Know Moses Heard From God? YOU DON'T "KNOW", UNLESS, you were there at Mt. Sinai, OR, God speaks to you BY HIS SPIRIT. Because the Word of God on "paper" is in SEED FORM & DEAD, and the Word of God REVEALED IS in HARVEST FORM & LIVING.They are 2 completely different manifestations, and only 1 IS REALITY.
Jesus was not against the Pharisees Because they did not believe him nor because they did not except him as Messiah. Jesus was against the Pharisees because of the corruption and their burden on those wanting to follow the Torah.
You are wrong!! Christ called them out on who they really were. So yeah, He was against them. They did the deeds of their father. Christ told them in John 8:44 “Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.” 45And because I tell you the truth, ye believe me not. 46Which of you convinceth me of sin? And if I say the truth, why do ye not believe me? 47He that is of God heareth God's words: ye therefore hear them not, because ye are not of God. So the Pharisees and Sadducees are the kenites. They are the sons of Cain which was the first murderer. And they are here today.
@@lesliecrawford1336 How is what you said any different from what I said? it was their deeds that condemeed them as you and I stated. It was their corruption and evil deeds that condemed them. The result in lacking repentance is the cause in not accepting the words of Christ. in other words, the evil deeds of the pharisees are what condemed them., the lack of repentance of their evil deeds produces a blindness to truth in not accepting the words of Christ.
@@lesliecrawford1336 You misunderstood my writting. Read the second sentence from my comment again. I said he was not against them for not accepting Christ but was against them for their corrupted ways. This corrupt ways also lead to not accepting CHRIST. Tovia Singer stated that Christ was against them because they did not accept him as CHRIST. I was correcting the original purpose, which was for their corruption first which then lead to not accepting Christ as Massiah.
As a catholic I have to say that you overestimate Paul's influence on the church. As a youngster I was taught the 10 commandments and the importance of leading a righteous life.
@@yosefbenavraham The Noahide laws are in the Talmud, which was put to text hundreds of years after Jesus said all people on earth were one through him.
@@hellooutsiders6865 No, the commandments for non-Jews are referenced in the Torah, in Genesis. The 10 commandments, from which are derived the 613 mitzvot (commandments), are only for Jews. The point is that he wasn't taught correctly, as the 10/613 don't apply to non-Jews. The irony is that the christians, and especially the catholics, don't even obey the 10 commandments that they wrongly believe pertain to them. They have graven images all over the place. That's one reason Jews are not permitted to enter into churches, and why Noachides are strongly advised not to. The whole christian thing is just a mess of misconstrued scripture and pagan idolatry. Yikes!
@@yosefbenavraham The Catholics don't follow a lot of what the Bible says, I'll agree with you there. There is no Father but the Father in heaven, sorry Pope. No church I've ever attended had idolatry though, we only worship the Lord who we believe is Christ and the Father as one through the spirit. The 613 laws of the Tanakh have the 10 commandments at its basis and the 10 commandments can be followed by walking with Jesus, due to his grace and power of forgiveness. The point of Jesus is we've already broken many of the 10 commandments. The wages of sin is death and we cannot atone for those sins ourselves, only through the grace of the Lord can we be saved and given the gift of eternal life. Here's a silly, coincidental visual to wrap that up lol 6+1+3 = 10 1+0 = 1 Regarding the other commandments, we keep those as well, though we do have different views on them. I imagine the Sabbath is one of those commandments you're largely referring to because we have such a different interpretation of it than you. Exodus 20:10 But the seventh day is a Sabbath to the Lord your God. On it you shall not do any work, you, or your son, or your daughter, your male servant, or your female servant, or your livestock, or the sojourner who is within your gates. Mark 2:27-28 And he said to them, “The Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath. So the Son of Man is lord even of the Sabbath.” Colossians 2:13-17 13 When you were dead in your sins and in the uncircumcision of your flesh, God made you alive with Christ. He forgave us all our sins, 14 having canceled the charge of our legal indebtedness, which stood against us and condemned us; he has taken it away, nailing it to the cross. 15 And having disarmed the powers and authorities, he made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them by the cross. Freedom From Human Rules 16 Therefore do not let anyone judge you by what you eat or drink, or with regard to a religious festival, a New Moon celebration or a Sabbath day. 17 These are a shadow of the things that were to come; the reality, however, is found in Christ. John 5:18 This was why the Jews were seeking all the more to kill him, because not only was he breaking the Sabbath, but he was even calling God his own Father, making himself equal with God. Overall I understand the Jewish disbelief and skepticism of Jesus because he stirred up the established beliefs but until Judaism can explain the signs I see in the world without Jesus, I just can't believe in Orthodox Judaism alone. I believe Christianity and Judaism are both pieces of the same puzzle and both the Christians and the Jews aren't doing their jobs in bridging the gaps. Christians should get back to the first century roots of Christianity which was rooted in faithful Judaism and Jews should see that Jesus has opened the door for the world to receive the Revelation of God as Moses did to the nation of Israel.

So the Tanakh is from God’s mind written by men because it’s consistent throughout the Tanakh? Circular reasoning? The accounts of who incited David to take a census of Israel differ between the books of Chronicles and Samuel in the Bible. In 1 Chronicles 21:1, it is stated that Satan incited David to take the census: “Satan rose up against Israel and incited David to take a census of Israel.” However, in 2 Samuel 24:1, it is described that God was the one who incited David: “Again the anger of the Lord burned against Israel, and he incited David against them, saying, ‘Go and take a census of Israel and Judah.’” What if the Sikhs’ Guru Granth Sahib or the Buddhist Tripitaka (Pali Canon) is without inconsistencies and dates back further than Judaism does that makes them from a divine source? Speaking of consistencies, Genesis creation in 7 days and a world wide flood is not consistent with reality using empirical evidence so those stories are allegorical I’m assuming? Also, if science cannot YET tell us what happened before Plank time or how life began then the Bible is the default “true” explanation? That is an argument from incredulity. “I don’t know and neither do you” is an intellectually honest answer.
As to the question why was Jesus against the Pharisees? Was because while holding the gold standard they themselves did not practice those gold standard. Scripture was clear that the Pharisees although holding the truth made it impossible for others to carry the truth. The Pharisees did not Follow the gold standard due to their corruption and sinful ways while no one was looking. In private the Pharisees were righteous but in private the Pharisees were corrupt and sinful and anti-God.
I believe scripture told us who the Pharisees and Sadducees were. They are not of God but if their father the devil. Their father was the first murderer. Who was the first murderer? It was Cain! They are called Kenites and they are very much here today!! And I don’t doubt from listening to this so called man that he is one of them.
I have a question… If Jews are awaiting a redemption in the sense of being saved from evil like the definition of the word suggests, doesn’t that mean that right now they are living in sin because their religion isn’t working? That they are following a false or corrupted religion?
God can forgive sin without a sacrifice.. Ezekiel 18:21 But if the wicked turn from all his sins that he has committed, and keep all My commandments, and do that which is lawful and right, he shall surely live (in Paradise), he shall not die (a never ending death in Hell fire). . Ezekiel 18:22 None of his transgressions (wrongdoing) that he has committed shall be remembered against him; for his righteousness that he has done he shall live (in Paradise). . Micah 6:8 It has been told to you O man, what is good and what the LORD does require of you: only to do justice, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God (in Ezekiel 18:20 - 18:23 and Hosea 6:6, Hosea 14:2 - 14:3 and 1 Kings 8:46 - 8:50 meaning the forgiveness of sin comes not from sacrifice but from asking God for forgiveness and replacing bad behaviour with good behaviour).
When the messiah comes there will be no war and everyone in the world will know God meaning no person will intentionally rebel against God because everyone will know Him. Today every person has free will to choose good or evil. When the messiah comes no person will choose evil because everyone will know God. Today everyone does not know God meaning the messiah described in Tanakh has not yet come.
They are awaiting the redemption from exile, which means that when Messiah comes, evil will end. There will be peace. They are awaiting tor the time that YHWH will reign Supreme! Don't you also want evil to end?
The characters in the Bible are not the same people in real life The life of people in the Bible are totally not existing in real life it feels like all things described in the Bible are not existent
Also, if you study the way, ancient people told stories and came up with things. They usually mix truth with fiction. So they were use real places and peoples names things like that, but the story around everything will be completely made up sometimes . I know it’s unfortunate

Revelation 13:5-10 5 The beast was given a mouth to utter proud words and blasphemies and to exercise its authority for forty-two months. 6 It opened its mouth to blaspheme God, and to slander his name and his dwelling place and those who live in heaven. 7 It was given power to wage war against God’s holy people and to conquer them. And it was given authority over every tribe, people, language and nation. 8 All inhabitants of the earth will worship the beast-all whose names have not been written in the Lamb’s book of life, the Lamb who was slain from the creation of the world. 9 Whoever has ears, let them hear. 10 “If anyone is to go into captivity, into captivity they will go. If anyone is to be killed with the sword, with the sword they will be killed.” This calls for patient endurance and faithfulness on the part of God’s people.

Colossians 1:15-17 He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation.

@HelloOutsiders oh that's cute but the new testament is as relevant as the Mormon Bible. Let me leave you with a verse from psalms. Psalms 146:3 [3]Do not trust in princes, In mortal man, in whom there is no salvation. Or how about this one from Isaiah. Isaiah 45:20-22 [20]"Gather yourselves and come; Draw near together, you fugitives of the nations; They have no knowledge, Who carry about their wooden idol And pray to a god who cannot save. [21]"Declare and set forth your case; Indeed, let them consult together. Who has announced this from of old? Who has long since declared it? Is it not I, the Lord? And there is no other God besides Me, A righteous God and a Savior; There is none except Me. [22]"Turn to Me and be saved, all the ends of the earth; For I am God, and there is no other.
@@hellooutsiders6865: NOWHERE did God ever mention the "Jesus" character to us, and the "Jesus" character never said ONE word that's attributed to him in the false, pagan, man-made "NT", since he was already DEAD, for at least 20 YEARS (some say a LOT longer!) by the time it was written. PLEASE buy a Hebrew Bible (says "Stone Edition TANACH" on the cover) and Rabbi Singer's books, so you can see for yourself what God actually said to us at Mt. Sinai.
Unfortunately, Rabbi nor anyone else knows anyone "of the House of David" because ALL modern Jews are escended from ALL ancient Judeans. It would be physically impossible for that not to be the case. The ancient Judean population was too small and too long ago for that not to be the case. The only reason Cohen and Levite show SLIGHTLY different patterns of descent is because Jews have been living as a caste for 2,000+ years. But NOT 3,000 years. These traditions don't actually go back that far despite what Tenak says. We know these traditions only go back to the Hasmoneon period, the Maccabees, who spread modern Judaism and that Tanach was only crafted around the 3rd century. What we know today as Tenak, using a lot of older material, that was diverse which they edited down, and also new books that did not exist, that they forged claiming them to be older. Like the book of Daniel, which we now know wasn't written until around the 2nd century BCE. And we know this from modern genetics. Cohen are not all descended from Aaron, Levites are not all descended from siblings of Aaron, and Yisrael are a mix of all variety of peoples, as are Levites/Cohen. Modern genetics doesn't lie. "Hammer et al. (2009) identified Cohanim from diverse backgrounds, having in all 21 differing Y-chromosome haplogroups: E-M78, E-M123, G-M285, G-P15, G-M377, H-M69, I-M253, J-P58, J-M172*, J-M410*, J-M67, J-M68, J-M318, J-M12, L-M20, Q-M378, R-M17, R-P25*, R-M269, R-M124 AND T-M70" "While some early genetic studies were seen as possibly supporting the traditional biblical narrative, this view was subsequently challenged with some researchers arguing that the genetic evidence "refutes the idea of a single founder for Jewish Cohanim who lived in Biblical times.""" What we have are people with family traditions of being Cohen, Levite or House of David..... that is all. It is ALL made up. It's all cartoons. It's all marvel comic.......... No one can prove or knows if they are descended directly from David, Abraham, Aaron, or anyone else. We can't even know if most of these figures existed. King David has MILLIONS of descendants of course, just like every other ancient Judean and ancient person who had children that continued to have children. That's how genealogy and ancestry works. What we have in the modern Jewish world are the remnants of a caste system, distorted and misunderstood over the course of 2,000 years. So literally, ALL modern Jews are "hosue of David", ALL modern Jews are "Tribe of Levi", ALL modern Jews are equally descended from the same people. Not necessarily in a direct paternal or maternal line, but that's kind of irrelevant. Because the claims that Cohen are all descended Paternally directly from one man, is IMPOSSIBLE. Same for Levites. Anyway, no one can know any of this. These are familial traditions and nothing more. There are thousands of Jews running around saying they are Cohen, Levite or House of David, and they have all differing Y haplogroups, all different paternal lineages........ thus, 90% of them are either wrong, making only a small percentage the true descendants so to speak, or all 100% are just perpetuating an ancient fantasy born out of an antiquated caste system....... BTW, ALL actual evidence points to the latter. Tenak is mythology. There were no 12 siblings from whom were born 12 tribes. That was a unifying mythology crafted by our diverse Judean ancestors.
@@maguscrowley4645 lol. Indeed. Supposedly Abraham's descendants are said to be as numerous as the stars. There's no way a 90+ year old man could have done all that work by himself.
God Himself specifically TOLD US this, in the ETERNAL (STILL in effect and binding TODAY - a LIVING document!!) Hebrew scriptures given to Moses at Mt. Sinai!! Actually LISTEN to what Rabbi Singer is saying!!
The argument that Judaism is legitimate because Christianity is based on Judaism but distorts it, is NOT actual evidence that Judaism is the genuine word of God. That is a completely fallacious argument. And just because a book doesn't contradict it's OWN world building, doesn't make it a divine work. It just means the authors did a very good job of not contradicting themselves. You know what other books don't contradict themselves? Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, the Bagava Gita..... the list goes on. It doesn't mean Harry Potter was written by God. However, that isn;t really the case as Tenak does contradict itself in numerous places. And yes, Orhtodox have come up with plenty of apologetics to try to make it seem like Tenak is a perfect divine work, but unfortunately, it's not. And furthermore we know it was altered and compiled as we know it today during the Hasmoneon period, during the Hellenic period, not until 3rd century BCE. So no, I am sorry, there is just as much reason to question the validity of Tenak as there is any other mythological work in existence. And we know Judeans up to the 2nd century were still practicing some polytheistic elements. We have scrolls from the Dead Sea scrolls, that have polytheistic lines, that were altered when the modern Tenak was created. We can actually trace some of this changes. So no, Tenak doesn't go back to Moses, nor does the modern Orthodox traditions. They go back to 2nd century BCE the EARLIEST. Unfortunately, lack of contradiction is NOT even close to evidence of being the genuine article. The ONLY way one can believe this is by faith, not rational thought or logic. The necessary existence of a creator does not in itself verify Tenak. Nothing in Tenak in fact PROVES its validity. It only proves that the authors/compilers did a good job of not contradicting. And yes, Tenak has a ton of wisdom and wonderful philosophy. That still doesn't make it divine. Tenak is beautiful in that it understands there must have been a creator, but that is the extent of it. And I am afraid we have been wrong about animals for quite some time. Many mammals at least certainly understand their mortality. Do they know "God"? That's impossible to say. But they are not void of spirit. They are not void of a connection to the DIVINE. And the Divine exists, it just didn't form the Torah, our ancestors did. Our very human, very naive ancestors. The exact same arguments that can be made about the NT can be made about Tenak because both are the work of MAN. You do not have to be an atheist to understand that Tenak is the work of man and not divine dictate. And MANY modern Jews understand this and believe this. Many people believe in God but understand that Tenak is NOT divine dictate, but our ancestors folkways and traditions, the laws of our ancient nation that are now antiquated. Tenak has been proven to be written in a similar fashion as other MYTHOLOGIES around the world. The Christian bible is different in that it was the creation of the Roman empire, to serve specific colonial and imperial purpose. The Hebrew bible is not that, but it is still the work of man. There is absolutely ZERO evidence that the biblical stories occurred or even close to being true, at least prior to the Davidic Kingdom. And it has been suggested, by modern archaeology that Tenak was not compiled until the Hasmoneon period. There is extremely solid evidence that Daniel wasn't written until the Maccabees as Maccabean propaganda. And the Tenak as we know it, was compiled shortly before the Septuagent. We KNOW this. Orthodox Judaism is only ONE of many Jewish traditions from ancient Judah. Our ancestors had many different beliefs and many different variations of Hebraic practice. Tenak is NOT " the original text", it is a compilation of many, many different short stories and historical records. The Judean Kings list reads exactly like the Assyrian Kings list. Genesis was taken DIRECTLY from Babylonian stories. I mean directly. Daniel, Moses, Abraham, Noah, these were Near Eastern mythological figures that the Israelites, and then the Jews, made their own. We know through modern science and genetics that it is impossible for Tenak to be true. Not all Cohen descend from one man, not all Levite descend from siblings and not all Jews descend from 12 brothers of one man. Not even close. Yes, the Christian bible is a work. It's not trustworthy or the word of God. And because it was created by the Roman Empire for imperial purpose, it is something different than Tenak. But Tenak is NOT different in that it is mythology. And this is verifiable. And yes, we have thought this through. Let's take Christianity completely out of the equation. How do you prove Tenak is the actual word of God? I noticed that Rabbi couldn't and never actually answered the question. He made a very good argument about why the Christian bible is inaccurate and incorrect in relation to the Hebrew bible that it is based on and that is a very good argument against the Christian bible. But what does that have to do with verifying the Tenak? How does that prove that Tenak is the divine dictate of the creator? It doesn't. At all. And we can PROVE today that Tenak is the work of man. That Torah is the work of man. That "prophets" were just our zealous ancestors trying their best with the little information they had. But it's 2023, and 90% of modern Jews are not Orthodox/Heredi. And probably 70% no longer believe Halakha is still binding or eternal. Halakha are the ancient laws of our long dead Kingdom. These traditions kept us through diaspora, but now we have an actual nation and no longer need to cling to these antiquated laws and social norms. Unfortunately, absolutely NONE of the arguments Rabbi makes in this video actually prove that Tenak is the divine word of a creator. Just our very intelligent and wise for their time period ancestors. Miracles, the supernatural, resurrection, these are AS INSANE as virgin birth. So this is how we know the Orthodox narrative is a scam. And we know this even further because we know where the Orthodox doctrine comes from, the Levitical/Zadokite upper caste who controlled ancient Judean society. They literally invented half of this stuff. And then the Pharisees continued some of these traditions, adding even more superstition and ignorance. And that has turned into the modern Orthodox tradition. But there were many other Jewish sects and beliefs. The Sadducees for example were not literalist or supernaturalists. They denied resurecction, spirits, angels and even a conscious afterlife. They were strict Torah adherents however in terms of law, but denied oral Torah. And they were the dominant sect in ancietn Judah. They controlled the temple and the society. The Pharisees were a minority sect who pandered to the poor and uneducated, pushing supernatural insanity. Slightly less nutty than the Essenes, but none the less. Anyway, none of the arguments in this video can prove Tenak is actually the divine work of a creator.
G_d wrote the Torah before Creation. G_d encoded the Torah/Tanach, The Hebrew letters, and the Hebrew language, so there is much hidden in plain sight. Hebrew is the Sacred language and the Torah is The Book of Life and the Blue Print of Creation.

NOWHERE did Rabbi Singer "praise" Islam, since it is a false, man-made religion (although NOT pagan, as "Christianity" is!) that absolutely did NOT come from God, since NO FURTHER SCRIPTURES were given to mankind by Him, AFTER Mt. Sinai. What Christianity REFUSES to realize, is that Isaac and Ishmael had the SAME father - ABRAHAM!! So, Islam and Judaism worship the SAME, One True God, Creator of the universe!! Which is why the Rabbis teach that Jews are PERMITTED to pray in a Mosque, but NOT in a Church, where pagan idolatry is preached! FURTHER, Muslims, don't actively seek to convert us to their false religion, like Evangelical Christianity does!!
@@yeshuman668so by answering yourself makes it true??!! 😂🙈 Sorry I had to laugh who ever you are. Why is there so much feeling involved with folks hanging on to a belief? Why not test things and out? That way if you are correct it will GROW your faith! But if not, it will cause you to change your ideology! And once you learn something else, you can’t go back to your old way of viewing it. Unless your fine with lying to yourself. And no, there is ZERO evidence that the gospels were written by them.. sorry to tell ya. Why not actually research it before coming here and trying to push your view, without checking out out first? .. I don’t understand 🫤 Do you believe that, just because the Bible that you’re reading has them titled that way?
Actually, NO! NOTHING you said agrees with the ETERNAL (STILL in effect and binding TODAY - a LIVING document!!) Hebrew scriptures given to Moses at Mt. Sinai. You need to realize, research, and accept, that NOWHERE did God ever mention the "Jesus" character to us, NOWHERE did He tell us that we need to be "saved", and NOWHERE did He tell us that He requires HUMAN BLOOD (a purely pagan ritual that God ABHORS!!) as atonement for our sins. NO FURTHER SCRIPTURES were given to mankind by God AFTER Mt. Sinai, therefore, Christianity absolutely did NOT come from God! PLEASE buy a Hebrew Bible (says "Stone Edition TANACH" on the cover), and Rabbi Tovia Singer's books, as well as Rabbi Stuart Federow's book "Judaism and Christianity: A Contrast", to help you understand why Christianity absolutely did NOT come from God.
@@User-x5s3x It does not matter to me what you wrote. I am no christian but I see Jesus as the beautiful metaphor for God in skin and flesh. Agree religious Christians are so obsessed with the blood of Jesus which is not in the Bible. Rabbi Tovia is well read and I understand his point and frustration. But he cannot come to terms with Love/ spirit of God that is within us. He like the Hebrew Bible is sold on to this spooky external theistic entity and still waiting for a Messiah to liberate the Jews. The Muslims also feel their allah is living up in the sky.
I get so angry when I watch this channel. Not because of anything the Rabbi says, but because of how RUDE the guy is when he demands the caller to hang up the phone. I understand from a technical perspective why he does this, but if he ever ordered me to hang up my phone I would snap. In the words of Eric Cartman, "I do what I want!".

THANKS
It's quite easy. Despite what Rabbi and everyone else claims, all religions are man's best effort to interpret the universe around them, the natural world and the creator. Tenak does one thing in particular that makes it special, not divine, but special, the authors understood that you can't get something out of nothing and that there MUST be a single unified creator. That is the brilliance of Tenak, and the ideas based on that. It doesn't make it the word of God.

Have you considered making short clips or short videos of the caller questions? I would watch all the clips regarding questions about the Messiah, but I don't have time to watch the entire video to wait for the small segments about the Messiah. We may disagree, but I do enjoy hearing about the ancient and current Jewish views regarding the Messiah.
Go to Rabbi Singers channel. He usually posts shorter ones a few days later from Tenak Talk.
If you look at the show notes he time stamps questions. Click the question’s time and it’ll take you to it
They usually break up the long shows into smaller clips.

As a former Pentecostal I can affirm that it was common to hear people say, the Lord laid it on my heart.
So what are you saying, that just because it hasn't happened to you, it's a scam or a Lie ? Meaning, YOU are the one who "establishes" what is Truth and what is False ? There are lots of people who have had "experiences" that we haven't had.
It doesn't mean it's a Lie. ONLY GOD CAN REVEAL TRUTH, not man. So did God reveal to you BY HIS SPIRIT that what those people experienced was a Lie ?
If you were a former pentecostal, wouldn't you see that he is leaving out much of the Bible in his answers, giving maybe 10% of what it says or nothing at all to these people who seem sincere in wanting better understanding. Whether he is intentional or not, he is doing noone any good by claiming he undoes the beliefs of Christianity while he cannot accurately or thoroughly speak about what is written in the New Testament.

Is sounds like the convert that it is referring to are either Egyptian or Moabites
This is the first episode I have seen, where the Rabbi has completely dismissed portions of the question at hand, making it a totally different question. For example, the very first question is asking, "How do we know Moses actually spoke to god?" which is the title of the episode, and the question isn't really answered. The person asking probably shouldn't have included anything about Christianity or applying the same principles of "debunking I suppose?" to the question itself. There are a few other questions where this happened, and I wonder how this could have been okay with anyone...
He did answer that - his and the Jews' ancestors were all witnesses to the fact that G-d spoke to Moses. They all experienced it and all told their children ....
Good observation.

You COMPLETELY SIDE STEPPED the callers question regarding how do we know the writings of Moses aren’t made up when you believe the NT was made up! COMPLETELY SIDE STEPPED! 16:19
Of Course he "side stepped', he is the "blind leading the blind".
Let me make this a little bit easy for your understanding... Christianity says you must believe in the NT or you get punished by god by going to hell and so forth. Judaism says.... If you are part of the political body of Israel, these are our national stories. If you choose not to believe them that is fine and god will not punish, condemn you, or send you to hell and what ever. But it does mean you can't be part of the political body / nation of Israel. Judaism is not about soul salvation, nor is Judaism another path towards enlightenment. These things are not the purpose of Judaism. Judaism is about community relationship with god; which is in such manner that all the generations benefit. With a punishment of death the burden of evidence needs to be much harder. There is the punishment of death for saying the NT is made up. There is no punishment of death for saying the OT is made up. The validity of the NT is based upon the validity of the OT. What the Rabbi says is this.... The OT can't support what the NT says because the two cosmologies are in to much of disagreement with each other. If the OT is wrong than the NT is wrong. The NT can't be right; while the OT is wrong because the NT is based upon the OT. Myths are understood stories; which attempt to teach abstract and complex truths. The spoken truth statements within the Myths of Judaism seem more real and valid than the spoken truth statements within the Myths of Christianity. We do not live in a Gnostic Reality, god is not a Narcissist, and a virgin conception is fully natural and not supernatural. The whole Christian religion is about pleasing the Narcissist god.

Can someone please timemark the answer to the caption’s question?
I just started watching if I come across I'll share
Startinng at 3 minutes is “How can we be sure that the Tanakh Jewish text is from God” (which includes the Torah written by Moses)
Did Moses exist?
Proof 1. The Hebrews experienced what is written in Tanakh and their descendants are alive today to confirm what has been taught from father to son and to daughter.
Proof 2. The rabbi descended from Aaron who is the brother of Moses meaning Moses was a real person.
Proof 3. The return of Jews to Israel is a prophecy in Tanakh that every person can see today.
Comment. Isaiah 7:14 as translated in most Christian Bibles is given as proof of deliberate mistranslation of the Hebrew Tanakh meaning people who mistranslated the Tanakh Jewish scriptures could not have been inspired by God.

Karaite Dr. Nehemia Gordon has enlightened me greatly on the fallacies of the Rabbinic strain. SO much doesn't make sense with Pharisees, and so much makes sense with Karaites 💙
Same thing happen to me
Where is it in the Tanakh that Jewishness is decided matrilinearly? Is it there or in Talmud, midrash? Did all rabbis concur? Next, does R. Singer ever discuss the fact that Judaism is not about individual salvation but the salvation of the whole people collectively? Where does that leave those Jews who are rightfully concerned about their individual salvation or enlightenment? Is there no place in Judaism for them?
Isn’t Jewish identity started when G-d specifically said the son of Sarah is the heir not the son of Hagar?
Judah was two generations after.
@@ElCineHefe that’s conventionally speaking. We refer to all the children of Israel as Jews today and Avraham the first Jew.
@avrahamisaacs2593
I guess you can do that but it's inaccurate. It wasn't until the kingdom split before such distinctions were made between bloodlines and goy traditions that had no place in the kingdom. I'm fairly certain that the gods of Jezebel were triune.
Why not answer the truth about what the Gospel says about why Jesus was so upset with the scribes and pharisees?
Both breathtaking and mind-boggling testimony from a well educated and very intelligent Bible scholar.
So now let's turn our attention to the origins of Judaism and all those stories and characters in the ancient Hebrew 'scriptures' and Christian Old Testament. If Judaism has the correct understanding of God and God's relationship with ALL of His living creations throughout an infinite and eternal universe, why is the nation of Israel and the descendants of Abraham dependent on support from Christians for its very existence and survival??? Could it be that God is patiently waiting for the suffering and the relentlessly persecuted Jews to accept Jesus Christ and His teachings as the solution to the problems of mankind throughout recorded history??
I will patiently await Rabbi Singer's answers. But when I finally come before my Creator and FATHER in Heaven, I believe any judgment on my life will be based on how I TREATED my fellow man, and NOT on my beliefs, knowledge, religion and understanding of philosophy and theology. 😇
He is not breathtaking nor is he in anyway intelligent in Bible scholar. He’s misleading Gods children and pulling them away from the truth! That’s what you call the apostasy that’s happening before the Antichrist appears.

At 56:00... Jewish identity is through the mother: well Yitzhak and Yishmael....
If a Jew is identified from his father, then both yitzchak and Yishmael would be Jews considering Abraham is the first Jew. But yitzchak is considered to be the true Jewish descendant of Abraham because of Sarah...
No?
No, because it was Yitzhak that G-d had "Promised" to Abraham, not Yishmael.
Rabbi Rashi on Genesis 17:20
והקמתי את בריתי AND I WILL ESTABLISH MY
COVENANT WITH HIM - Why is this stated? Is it not already written (Genesis 17:9) “as for thee, thou shalt keep My Covenant, thou and thy seed etc.”?
But since is said, (Genesis 17:7) and I will establish My Covenant between Me and thee and thy seed after thee in their generations”, *it might be inferred that the children of Ishmael and the children of Keturah (who are all descendants of Abraham) are included in this promise of the establishment of the Covenant,* therefore it states here (Genesis 17:19) “And I will establish My Covenant with him (Isaac), not with the others” (cf. Sanhedrin 59b). If so, why is there a repetition of the statement that the covenant will be established with Isaac in the words (Genesis 17:21) ואת בריתי אקים את יצחק “but My Covenant will I establish with Isaac”? But it is repeated in order to add the words אשר תלד so as to teach that he was holy from his birth (Shabbat 137b). Another explanation of why 5:21 is repeated is: *R. Aba said, “from here Scripture draws a logical conclusion regarding the son of the Mistress (Sarah) from what is said regarding the son of the handmaid (Hagar): It is written (Genesis 17:20) “Behold I have blessed him and will make him fruitful”, and this refers to Ishmael: Surely then, it follows logically that “I must establish my covenant (of blessing) with Isaac also!” (Genesis Rabbah 47:5)*

Quoting Rabbi Chananel ben Chushiel, another influential Jewish scholar, who worked in the 11th-century Tunisia, he writes about Genesis 17:20:
ונתתיו לגוי גדול, “and I will make him into a great nation.” Rabbeinu Chananel wrote: we note that this prophecy was fulfilled for them only after 2333 years. [Rabbi Chavell writes that this is an accurate number seeing that Avraham was circumcised in the year 2047 after the creation. The Islamic religion was founded in the year 4374 after the creation. Allow for another ten years until it started spreading throughout the world and you will arrive at the number 2333 after Avraham was circumcised, the date of this prediction.] This delay was not due to their sins as they had been looking forward to fulfillment of the prophecy during all those years. Once the prophecy came true Islam conquered the civilized world like a whirlwind. We, the Jewish people, lost our position of pre-eminence in the world due to our sins. Seeing that at the time of writing we have yearned for the fulfillment of the prophecy that we will be redeemed for a mere 1330 years, we certainly have no reason to abandon hope that it will be fulfilled.
The part between bracket is the editors quoting Rabbi Charles Ber Chavel, from the 20th-century US, so in total you have not one, not two, but three rabbis, quite influential at that, and stretching a period of 1000 years and many continents, making a direct connection between Genesis 17:20 and Islam

If I were a Narcissist, I would feel uncomfortable with Jewish Cosmology. If I were a Psychopath, I would feel uncomfortable with Jewish Cosmology. If were one of those who believed that might or status makes right, I would feel uncomfortable with Jewish Cosmology. If I were wrapped up in the gnostic point of view, I would feel uncomfortable with Jewish Cosmology. There might be no god in that void; which the Universe of more than two trillion galaxies is expanding into, there might not be a something that knows the Billions of different species which have existed on the planet, and Judaism might hold onto non historical facts; however, Judaism seems to me, to be the cosmological system that is the most conducive to healthy sociatial mental health. Science tells me that there is a G-d; while no religion does this for me. However what Jewish Cosmology is to me, is an outline of how humanity can be in the healthiest most beneficial relationship with the what, that created and is the master of everything; which science studies. In 500 years, the departed souls of psychologically healthy people are not going to be concerned with the salvation of their own souls or the state of their enlightenment; but rather they will be concerned with that which regards the state of humanity at that time in the future. I live in Ukraine, a country that if you do not know… is being attacked by a Crazed Narcissist, who happens to be in a position of political power. I think humanity is reaching that point where it has about had it with Narcissists in positions of political power. That which we need???…. We need a religion that facilitates culture development; which reduces the likelihood of a Narcissist or Psychopath obtaining unrestrained political power.
I really like your post. I know only a bit about the war in Ukraine. I hope you & those you love are safe & stay safe . . . . (And indeed; Putin & many international leaders, & corporate CEOs, are psychopaths. It puts us average folks in a horrible position; not only all the wars, but climate change, as well....)
FWIW, I was raised as an atheist Jew. My parents were around 30 years old at the end of WW2, & like many of their generation, the Jewish idea that G-d's will is made known thru history, made being devout very distasteful to them after they learned how all their European relatives died. Nevertheless the Jewish ethics of standing for Justice were strong in my family, & we did the most important holidays, except for Shabbos. My dad had a Yeshivah education in his youth. I was taught Jewish values & that I could decide whether or not to be religious when I was an adult. I was taught that kindness & justice mattered more than beliefs since religious people do use religion to excuse war & murder.
As it happened (for me) I explored lots of spiritual paths in my youth (I'm 71 now) but not Christianity. I always identified as a Jew, & never suffered over what to believe in. I found divinity in the wilderness, not in the synagogue, so I started w Native American stuff, & became skilled at yoga & Buddhist meditation. By now I've come full circle. I am in love w Kabbala.
But my point in all this is; the Asian paths start w Truth & come to acquire Love as aligned w Truth through enlightenment. Buddhism & Hinduism seek the Truth. To use a Buddhist frame, the Buddha Nature is the only thing which is Permanent, & it underlies everything, even though the illusions of change in this universe hide the Permanence & Immortality of the Buddhist Nature beneath the illusions of change.
It is very similar to the idea that G-d is concealed in this world. The Hebrew word for "the world" or "the universe" has the same 3 letter root as the Hebrew for the verb "to conceal" (haolam, & h'halem) so an accurate translation of the Hebrew for the universe is to call it the concealment, and what the universe conceals is the creator. But the Buddhist works towards enlightenment in solitude, or in monasteries whose members are replenished by outsiders joining in, & not by families & parents having children within the monastic community.
The western paths of Judaism & Christianity start with Love & relationships instead of starting with Truth, as the Asian paths do. (I don't think of Islam as a very loving, nor a very truthful, religion. It isn't hopeless. Medieval Christianity waged war between Christian sects, & burned heretics & witches, & maybe Islam can mature w time; but they have to do it. It can't be done by outsiders. Maybe in a thousand years . . . but I digress.)
Anyway; from a different starting place I make the same conclusions you do; that Judaism presents the teachings for how to make a just society more than any other cosmology. (Another sidestep; Rupert Spira is a modern teacher of nonduality who translates Buddhist & Hindu teachings so westerners can absorb them. The guided meditations he leads are very powerful for personal growth; but his community does not address how to heal the world & Judaism addresses this question directly.)
Those folks don't realize that Jewish mysticism is also a path of nonduality, but unlike the Asian traditions it starts w Love & relationships, & Service to build a healthy community, & not w solitary meditation to attain enlightenment.
See how we arrived at similar conclusions but from different starting places?
All those folks in Rupert Spira's workshops are very advanced in doing inner work, & I know a bond of love nourishes his work, but when I do RUclips posts to ask his followers; how do we use this work to heal the world; nobody has any answers to that question. It is a missing piece on those paths, IMO.

To understand the reason Google Rabbi Tovia Singer: Why is taking the name of God in vain unforgivable?
YHWH. That's the "name" of "God".
And this word is symbolic, not just a word.
It actually represents "God" in the sense of "life" and "creation" or "breath" and "the word".
Consider the word, and how it is said and how the air moves when you say it.
It begins in your chest, in your lungs, with "breath" or "life", and it moves from their into the throat, where it begins to find FORM. The next step is into the mouth, where tongue articulates sound, especially the "hidden vowels"....... And from the mouth, to the lips, which give further form to the breath, an finally, out into the world, as "creation" or "word" . And "God" gave us this power of creation, through words. Genesis is symbolic in this sense. The Tenak begins with a clue as to how to interpret it. It is directly telling us that THIS is the work of MAN, Man's interpretation of "God's word". The stories and narratives were for children, the uneducated and poor and uninitiated.
But the elite and authors and high priests always understood that this was the creation of man, despite what is written in Tenak. And they left clues throughout, for those with incite, on how to interpret the text symbolically. Which IS the underlying purpose. NOT the actual literal interpretation and narrative.
This is the symbolic origin of the "name of God". And why that word was used.
As Genesis tells us right away, "the word is God". And God grants life, and makes us in his own creation as "creators". And we create with the word and the "God given" breath.
I am not sure when it became taboo to actually say that word. But my best guess would be during the Hasmoneon period when modern Judaism as we know it was born. When the Tenak was actually compiled. redacted and edited into one continuous tome with a narrative. Prior to that, there were bits and pieces of writings, many variations, many beliefs, even some polytheistic.
But the word "YHWH" has deep symbolic meaning and it is directly correlated with the description of God in Genesis.
All though, it is fairly clear to me that the authors of Tenak understood full well that this was not to be taken literally and that the majority of the book is symbolic, metaphorical and allegorical. Unfortunately, they, like other elite and rulers, didn't mention this to the great unwashed, uneducated masses. And the Orthodox today do exactly what the Pharisees, who were a minor sect in Roamn Judah, used to do. Pander to the poor and uneducated, pushing supersition and supernatural mumbo jumbo.
The Sadducees on the other hand were the aristocracy and controlled the temple. They strictly used Torah for legal purposes, to the letter, but they also denied the supernatural, they denied resurrection, angels, ghosts, spirits. And they seem to have understood fully that Tenak is man's interpretation of "God's word" and not actually the divine work of a creator.
But yea, thats YHWH. You can "say it" without actually saying it. Without making the actual sounds if you want. Or just say it because, despite what Orthodox believe, nothing will happen, the Hashem won't care at all, and it isn't at all unforgivable. That is just nonsense superstition.
It may have even began as a meditative mantra. If you repeat it over and over in a meditative state, you can use it to control your breathing and to delve into the esoteric "traditions" that Judaism is founded on, which derive from Egypt, Babylon and Greece mostly.
Knowing the Bible is better than knowing Harry Potter.
Both books are bestsellers .
One influenced Kings and Queens ,other did kids and que*rs.
Maybe. But Harry Potter also doesn't contradict itself. So a book not contradicting itself doesn't prove the book is a divine work. Unfortunately, Rabbi's arguments and standards for judging Tenak are nothing but apologetics.
But one need not believe Tenak is the divine word of God in order to find it significant and important and influential. It remains our ancestors best efforts at understanding the universe and the nature of the creator of this universe. Along with a great deal of life wisdom and esoteric knowledge. Tenak is all these things and more.
But the literal word of "God" it is not. And our ancestors understood, at least the elite and aristocracy of Judean society understood this.
Unfortunately, the literalist interpretation was just one of many interpretations by our ancestors. Modern Orthodox take their tradition from the Pharisees who were a minority sect who pandered to the poor and uneducated and pushed superstition and supernatural. As opposed to the Sadducees who were the aristorcracy, dominant sect that controlled the temple, and they denied the supernatural, resurrection, a conscious afterlife and so on......
So modern Orthodox traditions weren't even the dominant tradition in the 1st century CE Judah.
Anyway, Tenak is still an invaluable book. Just invaluable for very different reasons than the literalist interpretation suggests.

Hello rabbi. Try not to delete this one please. Why did the Jews get the Passover before the law??? Why did God arrange it that the Passover would come before the law??
The law isn't from "God" it's man's intepretation of the universe and their attempt to understand the nature of the creator. That's it.
Tenak is a wonderful book, compiled by my ancestors, our ancestors, as their best effort to understand the universe and nature of the creature, to the best of their ability with the information available at the time.
Passover came before the law because that's how our ancestors WROTE and edited Torah and Tenak, which didn't exist in the form we know them in today until the 2nd century BCE, despite what the Orthodox fundamentalists believe.
We know today that Tenak is the work of man. We know today that these superstitions and laws are antiquated and are no longer factually binding.
Orthodox give a false claim that their version of Judaism is the authentic and genuine one, and no others are legitimate. This is wholly incorrect and contradicts the practices of our ancestors in ancient Judah, across the board. The modern Orthodox simply follow ONE literalist tradition, from the Pharisees, who were a minority sect of superstitious literalist fundamentalists who pandered to the poor and uneducated pushing their supernatural and superstitious claims. The Sadducees, who the modern Orthodox speak of in scorn, because they understand the Sadducees WERE the dominant sect in ancient Judah. They controlled the temple and the social order. And while they were strict Torah adherents, they did not use oral Torah and they did not believe in the supernatural and superstition. They denied ghosts, spirits, angels, a conscious afterlife, because they were educated and rational people relative to the period. Pharisees were not. Pharisees were the equivalent of modern Evangelical Christians. And aside from the prosthelitizing, modern Orthodox are not so different. Antiquated and superstitious, as is their interpretation, which only goes back around 2,000 years, no more.
Anyway, Tenak was written by man. So now consider your question again. Why does passover come before the law? Because that is how our ancestors decided to write and compile the tome we today known as Tenak. There is no other reason, regardless of what the Orthodox would tell you.
@@jessereichbach588 thanks for the reply. So would it be safe to say that you have been raised as a Jew but have since chosen atheism as your religious belief.
Personally I am Christian. I guess if I were true to myself I would call myself an Israelite. Not an orthodox Jewish nor a Christian as far as what Christianity professes.
I believe that both books were inspired contrary to this Channel. But I would say that after careful studies on my own I have concluded that God is the author of the bible. A book that is 1500 years in the making with over 40 writers who penned the book over different periods of era and culture. We see one story. The fall of man to the hope of the salvation through the messiah and the kingdom restored back to God as the king over all.
My question about the Passover coming before the law. Is because I here them say that the law is the only thing they need. 617 Noahide laws. But they fail to recognize that the messiah’s sacrifice of a ransom was to happen before any law would be relevant.
@@jessereichbach588 You said, "The law isn't from "God" it's man's interpretation of the universe.....".
You are making that statement like you were there on Mt. Sinai with Moses and the people who heard God's Voice.
I understand that you do not "believe" that, but at the same time it would be IMPOSSIBLE for you to "Know" that the Law is not from God, UNLESS God spoke to you "personally"that He did not give the Law.
I"m not trying to be combative or difficult with you, I am just speaking the Truth. Unless God spoke to you "personally" and said "I did not give the Law to Moses", then it is impossible for you to "Know" that the Law is NOT from God.
@@7Truth7Wins7 Part 1 of 2.
So to start, you are correct, I wasn't at Mt. Sinai, but then, neither were the authors of Torah/Tanach. So why do you accept their claim but doubt mine? I can at least be about 99% certain, which in this life is the best we ca nhope for. Epistemologically speaking, the only certainty is uncertainty. So you are correct, no one can know anything absolutely. And that especially goes for faith based claims. Which yours is. When there is absolutely zero evidence.
I mean, you'd have to prove Moses even really existed before you could prove everything happened at Mt. Sinai like it says. If Moses existed, IF he led an exodus out of Egypt, which is unlikely, and if he actually went to Mt. Sinai at all, it's far more likely that he chiseled some stone himself at the top, writing his own story, then presenting it. But that is even extremely unlikely. And all evidence suggests these are stories about a man who might have lived, but if he did lived very differently than the mythology asserts.
But this is something I and most Jews today, figure out even before we have our Bar Mitzvahs.
It is possible however to know that the Pentateuch has errors, anachronisms, contradictions, and the handprints of man all over it. it's possible to know that the history of the Tanach is inaccurate and that there is no evidence for most of it, and evidence AGAINST a fair amount of it, but very little evidence for it.
It's possible to know that the Pentateuch and the extended books came in different variations, which we have material text from, which was different than what is in the current Tanach. And it's possible to date those codex to an earlier period than the language used in much of Tanach.
It's possible to determine all of this.
And IF Tanach is supposed to be the "word of GOD' and IF Tanach is supposed to be perfect and infallible, than why is it imperfect and fallible? Why are the laws themselves, largely UNJUST and UNRIGHTEOUS compared to modern standard? Why can we track it's evolution and creation? Why do we see variation up to the 1st century?
Why are the earliest fragments from Torah that we have from the 2nd century BCE, about 1,000 years after Torah was supposedly written? And why do those scrolls from the 2nd century BCE appear more like the Samaritan pentateuch than the Judean Pentateuch?
Why are some of the laws so bad that if someone tried applying them to society today, 90% of the human population would violently revolt against them?
All of this and more is possible to know.
So what is left?
You have I'm sure heard the saying fantastic claims require fantastic evidence?
Well this is one of those occasions where fantastic evidence is required to prove the fantastic claims of Tanach. And you can't use Tanach to prove Tanach. That is the utter definition of unfalsifiable.
So while you are correct and that I can't know with 100% certainty that Moses wasn't handed the Torah at Mt. Sinai, I can be about 99% sure based on ALL of the actual evidence, the actual history with disagrees with the biblical history, the genealogy and genetics which disagree with the biblical narrative, the archaeological evidence which largely disagrees and contradicts the biblical narrative.
It's the same way I can be 99% certain the book of Daniel wasn't written until the 2nd century BCE. Like the claim of Darius the Mead being King prior to Cyrus. There is no Darius the Mead in recorded history. not in the Babylonian, Greek, Persian, Egyptian or Assyrians records. Plus the entire dating of Daniel is off by about 150 years or something.
See, the only evidence you have for Moses receiving Torah at Mt Sinai is Torah. That's it. And as far as we can tell, torah is mythology, a loose retelling of history wrapped in fiction. Which means it is man written. Now you can try to argue that it was "divinely inspired" like Christians do with their gospels. But that is not the Orthodox/Rabbinical claim. The Orthodox Rabbinical claim is that these are gods words. And that it is perfect, infallible. All because the book itself says so.
So, you are correct. I can only be about 99.9% sure that Moses didn't receive the Torah at Mt. Sinai.
On top of all that, the earliest mentions we have of Moses are from the 4th century BCE, 1000 years after Moses supposedly lived. And the Egyptian and Greek sources describe a very different Moses than is described in the Torah. A very different one indeed. And oddly enough, there is no mention of anything in Torah basically in either Greek or Egyptian records. So if the Greeks and Egyptians were writing about Moses, why weren't they using Torah as a source if it existed in its current form? You would think that would be their go to source about the man. But no They had their own records. And they had never heard of the narrative that is currently in Tanach.
These myths obviously go back a very long time. To the Bronze Age. But these characters weren't unique to Israelites, the entire region told these stories in many different variations. No different than how Greeks, Egyptians and Mesopotamians did. We know factually that El was the head of the Canaanite pantheon and that he had 70 children, all combined called the Elohim. Which was a pantheon. That's what the Elohim actually was. El was a solar deity. Like Apollo or Ra. The early israelites worshipped Baal. Who the Egyptians called Set. Like Seth form the Cain and Abel stories. Go read the Osiris and Set myth next to the Cain and Abel story, and then consider "Seth's" appearance right after. Anyway, eventually YhvH worshippers from Arabia made contact with Canaanites. And Baal's name changed to YhVH in Israelite territory. They even divorced El from his wife Ashara, and married her to YhVH. And we have archaaeology in Israel that shows this. A tablet made out to YhVh and his Ashara. Yes, early Israelites were pagan, polytheists, that slowly evolved into henotheism, the worship of one god above other gods, which eventually turned into monotheism. That likely didn't occur until the reign of Hezekiah, with the Josian reforms. Which if you read Josia's narrative, it plainly states. He burned all the other priests and high places. He literally made human sacrifices. Not only of other god's priests, but of other YhVH temples. And they forced the entire region to come worship in Jerusalem. Why? Because the temples is where wealth was collected, like taxes. Your temple made your city money. And this made Jerusalem the center of the entire region.
And this is also the basic story Samaritans tell. This is basically what caused the schism between Samaria and Judah. And the Samaritans, unlike Orthodox Jews, accept Jews as being Israelites. they just disagree about where the holy places were. They still actually have the tribes of Ephraim and Manasseh. unfortunately whomever was remaining of the tribe of Benjamin died in the early 20th century. And they of course still have the tribe of Levi. Jews only have Levi and Yisrael these days. All our tribal affiliation got absorbed into the identity of the Kingdom of Judah. Which is what the word Jew means. People from the Kingdom of Judah, not the tribe directly nor the faith practice of the Kingdom, called Judaism. Judaism is what Jews do. Not what 20% of Jews do.
Anyway, Jews are descended of all tribes, as are all Isrelites. But we just stopped perpetuating tribal identity beyond Levi. Samarians didn't. But they mostly have died off and there are only 1,000 left. I always love it when the excuse is used, well look how few Jews exist, the Torah says you will remain few in number. And Torah says in the end there will be a righteous few. And Orthodox think it must mean us. Well, there are 15 million of us and like 1,000 Samaritans. So tell me, who does the biblical narrative better fit? Not that I think they are anything different than us. They too are reading a myth. Because we are cousins. But Orthodox deny they are who they say they are and call them frauds, Assyrians. And sure, they are mixed with Assyrians, and now Lebanese and Syrians. But we are mixed with Greeks, Romans, Persians, Egyptians, Spaniards, Italians and a host of other people. So who cares?

@@7Truth7Wins7 Part 2 of 2. Sorry it went a bit long heh. No disrespect meant honestly. But these are facts, to the best of our ability to determine facts. Some of it is my speculation you are correct, but I tried to point out those parts where it is speculation. However, that speculation is BASED on the evidence itself.
And I'm genuinely not trying to change your beliefs. Just trying to get you to understand mine, and that of most people today, most Jews.
I hope you can see where I'm coming from then. And why it would be impossible for me to think or believe otherwise, as it is for most Jews alive today.
If you would like to learn about biblical archaeology, actual archaaeology, not theology pretending to be archaeology, there's a couple of good channels on YT. Mythvision and the Gnostic Informant and Digital Hammurabi. I'm not telling you what to believe. I am just telling you what we have evidence for and what we don't. I am ignorant. I know that. Which is why I only claim to know things I can know based on evidence. it is in fact Orthodox position which is arrogant. it's Orthodox position that claims to know something with certainty, with absoluteness, that is, by any measure of lived experience, impossible to know. Which is the utter definition of arrogance.
So I will give you this, yes, there is a tiny fraction of a possibility that Moses received Torah at Mt. Sinai. And there is about 99.999% probability that the Torah and Tanach we have wasn't written until the 1st millennia BCE, at minimum 800 years after Moses supposedly left Egypt. We also have zero evidence for an Exodus the size of the one described in the text. It's also impossible for that size population to have even existed at that time as we can easily determine population size using modern means and science.
Some think maybe there was a smaller Exodus, or continuous exodus', as certainly Canaanites, Hysos and then israelites lived in Egypt for long periods. Egypt actually controlled Canaan when the Exodus supposedly occurred. So consider that. Moses fled Egypt with the Israelites, just to escape to an Egyptian colony? That makes little sense. Egypt gave up Canaan in around 1200 BCE. And that's really the first time we see the Israelites appear anywhere.
Anyway, like I said, mythology. Loose history wrapped in legend and fiction. And that's ok. It doesn't nullify the existence of Hashem. it only makes the text written by men who didn't actually hear the words of God, but thought of these things themselves. And that's ok too. This is Judaism I'm afraid. Especially in the 21st century. When only 10% of modern Jews are Orthodox, and something like 70% don't accept Torah as the direct word of god, but something less divine and certain. It's not that we don't use Torah. its a wonderful guide, our guide, to so many things. But the law in it is from the long gone Kingdom of Judah, and those laws were antiquated and unjust in the 1st century CE, let alone in this century. Imagine if they tried implementing Torah law on people today. What woud happen? 90% of the population would violently revolt. And you are telling me those laws came from Hashem the creator of the universe? Impossible. Sorry. Can't fathom it. Seems completely absurd. And all evidence would agree.
Anyway, so yes you are right, there is a 0.0000000009% chance Moses received the Torah directly from Hashem at Mt. Sinai. But we will never actually know for certain. I know which way I HAVE to go. it's not like I have a choice. Can you believe in unicorns? Probably not right. Why? Because all your experience and knowledge tells you they don't and can't exist. Maybe you leave the small possibility open that they used to exist or something like that, but otherwise, what's the difference between unicorns and the idea that Torah was directly spoken by God to man? Or honestly any of the supernatural elements that we know today to be impossible.
Resurrection? No thanks. No way. haha. I wouldn't want to be even if I could be. The caste system in Jewish society was completely unjust. And it would be again if it ever became real again, if the temple ever was rebuilt. Imagine modern Jews living in a caste like that? No thanks haha. That's why Christianity happened. Because the upper caste, the Priests and Levites got corrupt, greedy and power hungry, which is what happens with every caste system across the globe throughout history. It never ends well.
Well, that's that. I mean, believe what you want to believe. But I know what most Jews let alone most people on earth believe. And it's not the Orthodox narrative. It's why most of us aren't very concerned with Halakha.. Because, our ancestors made that stuff up. We really don't have to do it, there will be no repercussions. And if there are. I mean, whatever. I'll just tell Hashem he made it very difficult by leaving all that evidence that contradicts the Torah narrative. I'm sure he'll understand. He's loving and compassionate right? Well, I mean, not in the Pentateuch so much. Certainly not in Genesis and Exodus. And certainly not in parts of the prophets. He seems kind of jealous and vindictive. Why would an omnipotent god be jealous and vindictive? That never made sense to me. What could he possibly be upset about or jealous about? Attention? Please. That's so narcissistic and vain.
We know there must be a creator to the universe, an eternity, a single origin point, and we call that Hashem, but that's all we can really deduce in reality. The rest is our best effort to undestand, and our ancestors best efforts to understand. Their ideas, how they perceived things. So yes we learn from them. But we don't have to be like them.
What does Torah mean? Teaching and guidance. The root at least is teach or guide. It came to mean other things later, like "law" and mishna and midrash and talmud. But in reality, all torah is, is teaching and learning. That is Torah. The text is a part of Torah but it isn't itself all of Torah. Laws can change and they do. And we learn things over time. The idea that we can't go beyond the text, beyond the Pentateuch, is in itself anathema to Torah.
I will explain. Restricting our "Torah" or "learning" to this single text, limits Torah. Limits the act of learning. Learning is life. Death is the end of learning. When you limit Torah, when you limit life, you get death. I honestly don't know if the text was ever intended to be what it has become. But either way. The principle of the immutable Pentateuch, the text, not Torah, but just the text, seems misunderstood. I know what the text says and I can't argue with that. But someone could have quite easily just added that in whenever they felt like it. That's beside the point. But if Torah is learning and teaching it can not be limited to a single text. That is death of learning. That is stagnation. That is the opposite of Torah, of learning. Which is why oral Torah was created. Yes, created.
But whomever decided oral torah needed to be limited by the 5 books of Moses, well, I don't know if that was really in the best interest of torah. This is part of course is just my opinion. But if we take Torah in its truest sense, then we can't restrict that to any text. We can however apply that to the immutability of certain beliefs, as in the one single creator of the universe. That is a belief we can hold to guide us, that doesn't limit torah. Doesn't limit learning.
Fact is, our ancestors thought learning certain things was dangerous. They believed in divination and magic, and word magic especially. I mean, they still do in some orthodox circles. It's why you aren't supposed to say the Y-V- name. Magic. Im serious. They believe contemplating eternity is dangerous, as you can get lost in the abyss of your mind, and lose your ego when perceiving yourself so small and insignificant. And from a psychological perspective they have a point. So it's a warning. Good warning. A rule though? A rule with punishment of like stoning or whatever? Um that kind of thing, those kinds of things.
Now if we understand law to mean the law of the time rather than any one specific law, it makes a ton more sense. Then if we put that in context, it means, follow the law, whatever that law is at the time. Yes, it often says the law of Moses. But again, our ancestors couldn't imagine the law becoming what it is today. For it's time, well, they were well ahead of their time. But that was 2500+ years ago. We've gone beyond the ppoint of ahead of their time. We are now way ahead of that. And in reality many of the laws of moses, today are just unjust and unrighteous. Some are outright horrific.
Any religion that doesn't evolve, surely gets lost in the past.
And Jesus saith unto him, See thou tell no man; but go, show thyself to the priest, and offer the gift that Moses commanded, for a testimony unto them.
You need to realize, research, and accept, that NOWHERE did God ever mention the "Jesus" character to us, NOWHERE did He tell us that we need to be "saved", and NOWHERE did He tell us that He requires HUMAN BLOOD (a purely pagan ritual that God ABHORS!!) as atonement for our sins.
NO FURTHER SCRIPTURES were given to mankind by God AFTER Mt. Sinai, therefore, Christianity absolutely did NOT come from God!
PLEASE buy a Hebrew Bible (says "Stone Edition TANACH" on the cover), and Rabbi Tovia Singer's books, as well as Rabbi Stuart Federow's book "Judaism and Christianity: A Contrast", to help you understand why Christianity absolutely did NOT come from God.
@@User-x5s3x He mentioned Jesus, by revealing Himself as Jehovah.
could you please explain this: Christianity says that the crucifixion was the most terrible crime in human history and also the most beautiful event in history.
It's about as contradictory as the so called gospels lol. Don't forget they must have scapegoats.
Christianity says that Jesus dying for the sins and Resurrection was the most beautiful event in history.
It's the same as the discussion for Khan in Star Trek Space seed episode.
Can't speak for xtians, but just so you know crucifixion was just the Romans" form of executing their criminals; millions of criminals were crucified.
If the method had be the gallows, maybe the xtians would feel gallows were something special, rather than two beams of wood ?
Hopefully, a xtian will answer your question from their point of view about venerating the symbol of crucifixion.
It's all idolatry and blasphemy. All that stuff is forbidden.
@@avalerie4467 I too have mentioned this. It's a death penalty form of execution. Not a sacrifice alter as performed by the ancient Israelite people. Also Jesus was beaten to near death which caused blemishes. No blemishes should be on the animal. Jesus died for nothing. He should have taken a slap on the wrist and said ok I am sorry I won't be this stupid again.
I think Rabbi dodged the first question. Basically, he spent most of his answer talking about the unreliability of the New Testament. The caller understood that point. He then says the prophets and the writings have been compared to Torah to see if they are reliable and that they were. However, the question was whether Torah is the word of God. He didn't demonstrate that.. He basically said we should trust the Jewish people's claim.
G_d wrote the Torah before Creation. G_d encoded the Torah/Tanach, The Hebrew letters and the Hebrew language so there is much hidden in plain. Hebrew is the Sacred language, and the Torah is The Book of Life and the Blue Print of Creation.
Agreed.. the question was never answered. He deflected and criticized the New Testament instead. Very telling.
God said trust no man. And why these people are trusting such a man as Tovia is beyond me. The majority of the Jewish people do not believe Christ ever came to this earth. They believe in God but do not believe God came in the flesh. It’s sad.

Jesus was not against the Pharisees Because they did not believe him nor because they did not except him as Messiah. Jesus was against the Pharisees because of the corruption and their burden on those wanting to follow the Torah.
You are wrong!! Christ called them out on who they really were. So yeah, He was against them. They did the deeds of their father. Christ told them in
John 8:44

As a catholic I have to say that you overestimate Paul's influence on the church. As a youngster I was taught the 10 commandments and the importance of leading a righteous life.
You were taught wrong. The 10 commandments are for Jews. Non-Jews are commanded to follow the 7 Noahide laws.
@@yosefbenavraham The Noahide laws are in the Talmud, which was put to text hundreds of years after Jesus said all people on earth were one through him.
@@hellooutsiders6865 No, the commandments for non-Jews are referenced in the Torah, in Genesis. The 10 commandments, from which are derived the 613 mitzvot (commandments), are only for Jews. The point is that he wasn't taught correctly, as the 10/613 don't apply to non-Jews. The irony is that the christians, and especially the catholics, don't even obey the 10 commandments that they wrongly believe pertain to them. They have graven images all over the place. That's one reason Jews are not permitted to enter into churches, and why Noachides are strongly advised not to. The whole christian thing is just a mess of misconstrued scripture and pagan idolatry. Yikes!
@@yosefbenavraham The Catholics don't follow a lot of what the Bible says, I'll agree with you there. There is no Father but the Father in heaven, sorry Pope.
No church I've ever attended had idolatry though, we only worship the Lord who we believe is Christ and the Father as one through the spirit.
The 613 laws of the Tanakh have the 10 commandments at its basis and the 10 commandments can be followed by walking with Jesus, due to his grace and power of forgiveness.
The point of Jesus is we've already broken many of the 10 commandments. The wages of sin is death and we cannot atone for those sins ourselves, only through the grace of the Lord can we be saved and given the gift of eternal life.
Here's a silly, coincidental visual to wrap that up lol
6+1+3 = 10
1+0 = 1
Regarding the other commandments, we keep those as well, though we do have different views on them. I imagine the Sabbath is one of those commandments you're largely referring to because we have such a different interpretation of it than you.
Exodus 20:10
But the seventh day is a Sabbath to the Lord your God. On it you shall not do any work, you, or your son, or your daughter, your male servant, or your female servant, or your livestock, or the sojourner who is within your gates.
Mark 2:27-28
And he said to them, “The Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath. So the Son of Man is lord even of the Sabbath.”
Colossians 2:13-17
13 When you were dead in your sins and in the uncircumcision of your flesh, God made you alive with Christ. He forgave us all our sins, 14 having canceled the charge of our legal indebtedness, which stood against us and condemned us; he has taken it away, nailing it to the cross. 15 And having disarmed the powers and authorities, he made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them by the cross.
Freedom From Human Rules
16 Therefore do not let anyone judge you by what you eat or drink, or with regard to a religious festival, a New Moon celebration or a Sabbath day. 17 These are a shadow of the things that were to come; the reality, however, is found in Christ.
John 5:18
This was why the Jews were seeking all the more to kill him, because not only was he breaking the Sabbath, but he was even calling God his own Father, making himself equal with God.
Overall I understand the Jewish disbelief and skepticism of Jesus because he stirred up the established beliefs but until Judaism can explain the signs I see in the world without Jesus, I just can't believe in Orthodox Judaism alone. I believe Christianity and Judaism are both pieces of the same puzzle and both the Christians and the Jews aren't doing their jobs in bridging the gaps. Christians should get back to the first century roots of Christianity which was rooted in faithful Judaism and Jews should see that Jesus has opened the door for the world to receive the Revelation of God as Moses did to the nation of Israel.

@@samvoron1727 🤣
@@tbishop4961 Isaiah 7:14 as translated in most Christian Bibles is give as proof of deliberate mistranslation of the Hebrew Tanakh.
So the Tanakh is from God’s mind written by men because it’s consistent throughout the Tanakh? Circular reasoning? The accounts of who incited David to take a census of Israel differ between the books of Chronicles and Samuel in the Bible. In 1 Chronicles 21:1, it is stated that Satan incited David to take the census: “Satan rose up against Israel and incited David to take a census of Israel.” However, in 2 Samuel 24:1, it is described that God was the one who incited David: “Again the anger of the Lord burned against Israel, and he incited David against them, saying, ‘Go and take a census of Israel and Judah.’”
What if the Sikhs’ Guru Granth Sahib or the Buddhist Tripitaka (Pali Canon) is without inconsistencies and dates back further than Judaism does that makes them from a divine source?
Speaking of consistencies, Genesis creation in 7 days and a world wide flood is not consistent with reality using empirical evidence so those stories are allegorical I’m assuming?
Also, if science cannot YET tell us what happened before Plank time or how life began then the Bible is the default “true” explanation? That is an argument from incredulity. “I don’t know and neither do you” is an intellectually honest answer.
As to the question why was Jesus against the Pharisees? Was because while holding the gold standard they themselves did not practice those gold standard. Scripture was clear that the Pharisees although holding the truth made it impossible for others to carry the truth. The Pharisees did not Follow the gold standard due to their corruption and sinful ways while no one was looking. In private the Pharisees were righteous but in private the Pharisees were corrupt and sinful and anti-God.
I believe scripture told us who the Pharisees and Sadducees were. They are not of God but if their father the devil. Their father was the first murderer. Who was the first murderer? It was Cain! They are called Kenites and they are very much here today!! And I don’t doubt from listening to this so called man that he is one of them.
Some of God's angels have bellybuttons
I have a question…
If Jews are awaiting a redemption in the sense of being saved from evil like the definition of the word suggests, doesn’t that mean that right now they are living in sin because their religion isn’t working?
That they are following a false or corrupted religion?
God can forgive sin without a sacrifice..
Ezekiel 18:21 But if the wicked turn from all his sins that he has committed, and keep all My commandments, and do that which is lawful and right, he shall surely live (in Paradise), he shall not die (a never ending death in Hell fire).
.
Ezekiel 18:22 None of his transgressions (wrongdoing) that he has committed shall be remembered against him; for his righteousness that he has done he shall live (in Paradise).
.
Micah 6:8 It has been told to you O man, what is good and what the LORD does require of you: only to do justice, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God (in Ezekiel 18:20 - 18:23 and Hosea 6:6, Hosea 14:2 - 14:3 and 1 Kings 8:46 - 8:50 meaning the forgiveness of sin comes not from sacrifice but from asking God for forgiveness and replacing bad behaviour with good behaviour).
When the messiah comes there will be no war and everyone in the world will know God meaning no person will intentionally rebel against God because everyone will know Him.
Today every person has free will to choose good or evil.
When the messiah comes no person will choose evil because everyone will know God.
Today everyone does not know God meaning the messiah described in Tanakh has not yet come.
They are awaiting the redemption from exile, which means that when Messiah comes, evil will end. There will be peace. They are awaiting tor the time that YHWH will reign Supreme! Don't you also want evil to end?
The characters in the Bible are not the same people in real life
The life of people in the Bible are totally not existing in real life it feels like all things described in the Bible are not existent
Also, if you study the way, ancient people told stories and came up with things. They usually mix truth with fiction.
So they were use real places and peoples names things like that, but the story around everything will be completely made up sometimes .

Unfortunately, Rabbi nor anyone else knows anyone "of the House of David" because ALL modern Jews are escended from ALL ancient Judeans. It would be physically impossible for that not to be the case. The ancient Judean population was too small and too long ago for that not to be the case. The only reason Cohen and Levite show SLIGHTLY different patterns of descent is because Jews have been living as a caste for 2,000+ years. But NOT 3,000 years. These traditions don't actually go back that far despite what Tenak says. We know these traditions only go back to the Hasmoneon period, the Maccabees, who spread modern Judaism and that Tanach was only crafted around the 3rd century. What we know today as Tenak, using a lot of older material, that was diverse which they edited down, and also new books that did not exist, that they forged claiming them to be older. Like the book of Daniel, which we now know wasn't written until around the 2nd century BCE.
And we know this from modern genetics. Cohen are not all descended from Aaron, Levites are not all descended from siblings of Aaron, and Yisrael are a mix of all variety of peoples, as are Levites/Cohen. Modern genetics doesn't lie.
"Hammer et al. (2009) identified Cohanim from diverse backgrounds, having in all 21 differing Y-chromosome haplogroups: E-M78, E-M123, G-M285, G-P15, G-M377, H-M69, I-M253, J-P58, J-M172*, J-M410*, J-M67, J-M68, J-M318, J-M12, L-M20, Q-M378, R-M17, R-P25*, R-M269, R-M124 AND T-M70"
"While some early genetic studies were seen as possibly supporting the traditional biblical narrative, this view was subsequently challenged with some researchers arguing that the genetic evidence "refutes the idea of a single founder for Jewish Cohanim who lived in Biblical times."""
What we have are people with family traditions of being Cohen, Levite or House of David..... that is all. It is ALL made up. It's all cartoons. It's all marvel comic..........
No one can prove or knows if they are descended directly from David, Abraham, Aaron, or anyone else. We can't even know if most of these figures existed.
King David has MILLIONS of descendants of course, just like every other ancient Judean and ancient person who had children that continued to have children. That's how genealogy and ancestry works.
What we have in the modern Jewish world are the remnants of a caste system, distorted and misunderstood over the course of 2,000 years.
So literally, ALL modern Jews are "hosue of David", ALL modern Jews are "Tribe of Levi", ALL modern Jews are equally descended from the same people. Not necessarily in a direct paternal or maternal line, but that's kind of irrelevant. Because the claims that Cohen are all descended Paternally directly from one man, is IMPOSSIBLE. Same for Levites.
Anyway, no one can know any of this. These are familial traditions and nothing more. There are thousands of Jews running around saying they are Cohen, Levite or House of David, and they have all differing Y haplogroups, all different paternal lineages........ thus, 90% of them are either wrong, making only a small percentage the true descendants so to speak, or all 100% are just perpetuating an ancient fantasy born out of an antiquated caste system.......
BTW, ALL actual evidence points to the latter. Tenak is mythology. There were no 12 siblings from whom were born 12 tribes. That was a unifying mythology crafted by our diverse Judean ancestors.
Someone once said, "I could make children of Abraham out of these rocks.".
@@maguscrowley4645 lol. Indeed.
Supposedly Abraham's descendants are said to be as numerous as the stars. There's no way a 90+ year old man could have done all that work by himself.
Singer never answered how we know God spoke to Moses.
God Himself specifically TOLD US this, in the ETERNAL (STILL in effect and binding TODAY - a LIVING document!!) Hebrew scriptures given to Moses at Mt. Sinai!! Actually LISTEN to what Rabbi Singer is saying!!
The argument that Judaism is legitimate because Christianity is based on Judaism but distorts it, is NOT actual evidence that Judaism is the genuine word of God. That is a completely fallacious argument.
And just because a book doesn't contradict it's OWN world building, doesn't make it a divine work. It just means the authors did a very good job of not contradicting themselves. You know what other books don't contradict themselves? Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, the Bagava Gita..... the list goes on. It doesn't mean Harry Potter was written by God.
However, that isn;t really the case as Tenak does contradict itself in numerous places. And yes, Orhtodox have come up with plenty of apologetics to try to make it seem like Tenak is a perfect divine work, but unfortunately, it's not. And furthermore we know it was altered and compiled as we know it today during the Hasmoneon period, during the Hellenic period, not until 3rd century BCE. So no, I am sorry, there is just as much reason to question the validity of Tenak as there is any other mythological work in existence. And we know Judeans up to the 2nd century were still practicing some polytheistic elements. We have scrolls from the Dead Sea scrolls, that have polytheistic lines, that were altered when the modern Tenak was created. We can actually trace some of this changes. So no, Tenak doesn't go back to Moses, nor does the modern Orthodox traditions. They go back to 2nd century BCE the EARLIEST.
Unfortunately, lack of contradiction is NOT even close to evidence of being the genuine article. The ONLY way one can believe this is by faith, not rational thought or logic. The necessary existence of a creator does not in itself verify Tenak. Nothing in Tenak in fact PROVES its validity. It only proves that the authors/compilers did a good job of not contradicting. And yes, Tenak has a ton of wisdom and wonderful philosophy. That still doesn't make it divine. Tenak is beautiful in that it understands there must have been a creator, but that is the extent of it.
And I am afraid we have been wrong about animals for quite some time. Many mammals at least certainly understand their mortality. Do they know "God"? That's impossible to say. But they are not void of spirit. They are not void of a connection to the DIVINE. And the Divine exists, it just didn't form the Torah, our ancestors did. Our very human, very naive ancestors.
The exact same arguments that can be made about the NT can be made about Tenak because both are the work of MAN. You do not have to be an atheist to understand that Tenak is the work of man and not divine dictate. And MANY modern Jews understand this and believe this. Many people believe in God but understand that Tenak is NOT divine dictate, but our ancestors folkways and traditions, the laws of our ancient nation that are now antiquated.
Tenak has been proven to be written in a similar fashion as other MYTHOLOGIES around the world.
The Christian bible is different in that it was the creation of the Roman empire, to serve specific colonial and imperial purpose.
The Hebrew bible is not that, but it is still the work of man. There is absolutely ZERO evidence that the biblical stories occurred or even close to being true, at least prior to the Davidic Kingdom. And it has been suggested, by modern archaeology that Tenak was not compiled until the Hasmoneon period. There is extremely solid evidence that Daniel wasn't written until the Maccabees as Maccabean propaganda. And the Tenak as we know it, was compiled shortly before the Septuagent.
We KNOW this. Orthodox Judaism is only ONE of many Jewish traditions from ancient Judah. Our ancestors had many different beliefs and many different variations of Hebraic practice.
Tenak is NOT " the original text", it is a compilation of many, many different short stories and historical records. The Judean Kings list reads exactly like the Assyrian Kings list. Genesis was taken DIRECTLY from Babylonian stories. I mean directly.
Daniel, Moses, Abraham, Noah, these were Near Eastern mythological figures that the Israelites, and then the Jews, made their own.
We know through modern science and genetics that it is impossible for Tenak to be true. Not all Cohen descend from one man, not all Levite descend from siblings and not all Jews descend from 12 brothers of one man. Not even close.
Yes, the Christian bible is a work. It's not trustworthy or the word of God. And because it was created by the Roman Empire for imperial purpose, it is something different than Tenak.
But Tenak is NOT different in that it is mythology. And this is verifiable. And yes, we have thought this through. Let's take Christianity completely out of the equation. How do you prove Tenak is the actual word of God? I noticed that Rabbi couldn't and never actually answered the question. He made a very good argument about why the Christian bible is inaccurate and incorrect in relation to the Hebrew bible that it is based on and that is a very good argument against the Christian bible. But what does that have to do with verifying the Tenak? How does that prove that Tenak is the divine dictate of the creator?
It doesn't. At all.
And we can PROVE today that Tenak is the work of man. That Torah is the work of man. That "prophets" were just our zealous ancestors trying their best with the little information they had.
But it's 2023, and 90% of modern Jews are not Orthodox/Heredi. And probably 70% no longer believe Halakha is still binding or eternal. Halakha are the ancient laws of our long dead Kingdom. These traditions kept us through diaspora, but now we have an actual nation and no longer need to cling to these antiquated laws and social norms.
Unfortunately, absolutely NONE of the arguments Rabbi makes in this video actually prove that Tenak is the divine word of a creator. Just our very intelligent and wise for their time period ancestors.
Miracles, the supernatural, resurrection, these are AS INSANE as virgin birth. So this is how we know the Orthodox narrative is a scam. And we know this even further because we know where the Orthodox doctrine comes from, the Levitical/Zadokite upper caste who controlled ancient Judean society. They literally invented half of this stuff. And then the Pharisees continued some of these traditions, adding even more superstition and ignorance. And that has turned into the modern Orthodox tradition.
But there were many other Jewish sects and beliefs. The Sadducees for example were not literalist or supernaturalists. They denied resurecction, spirits, angels and even a conscious afterlife. They were strict Torah adherents however in terms of law, but denied oral Torah. And they were the dominant sect in ancietn Judah. They controlled the temple and the society. The Pharisees were a minority sect who pandered to the poor and uneducated, pushing supernatural insanity. Slightly less nutty than the Essenes, but none the less.
Anyway, none of the arguments in this video can prove Tenak is actually the divine work of a creator.
Geez 🤥
Your premise is backwards. Judaism is in no way dependent on xtianity. They pervert our Scriptures to justify their existence.
Extremely long but I couldn't of said it any better , check mate
@@SheikhN-bible-syndrome Thank you, I'm sorry, being concise isn't my forte haha.
G_d wrote the Torah before Creation. G_d encoded the Torah/Tanach, The Hebrew letters, and the Hebrew language, so there is much hidden in plain sight. Hebrew is the Sacred language and the Torah is The Book of Life and the Blue Print of Creation.

If Rabbi Singer didn't praise Islam, I may take him more seriously...
Praise? I don’t think he ever praised it sir…
NOWHERE did Rabbi Singer "praise" Islam, since it is a false, man-made religion (although NOT pagan, as "Christianity" is!) that absolutely did NOT come from God, since NO FURTHER SCRIPTURES were given to mankind by Him, AFTER Mt. Sinai.
What Christianity REFUSES to realize, is that Isaac and Ishmael had the SAME father - ABRAHAM!! So, Islam and Judaism worship the SAME, One True God, Creator of the universe!! Which is why the Rabbis teach that Jews are PERMITTED to pray in a Mosque, but NOT in a Church, where pagan idolatry is preached!
FURTHER, Muslims, don't actively seek to convert us to their false religion, like Evangelical Christianity does!!
REMEMBER, NOT CHRISTIANS..THE REAL JEWS LIKE JESUS, MATTHEW, MARK , PAUL AND JOHN WROTE THE NEW TESTAMENT.
yes
@@yeshuman668so by answering yourself makes it true??!! 😂🙈
Sorry I had to laugh who ever you are.
Why is there so much feeling involved with folks hanging on to a belief?
Why not test things and out? That way if you are correct it will GROW your faith!
But if not, it will cause you to change your ideology! And once you learn something else, you can’t go back to your old way of viewing it. Unless your fine with lying to yourself.
And no, there is ZERO evidence that the gospels were written by them.. sorry to tell ya.
Why not actually research it before coming here and trying to push your view, without checking out out first?
.. I don’t understand 🫤
Do you believe that, just because the Bible that you’re reading has them titled that way?
Actually, NO! NOTHING you said agrees with the ETERNAL (STILL in effect and binding TODAY - a LIVING document!!) Hebrew scriptures given to Moses at Mt. Sinai.
You need to realize, research, and accept, that NOWHERE did God ever mention the "Jesus" character to us, NOWHERE did He tell us that we need to be "saved", and NOWHERE did He tell us that He requires HUMAN BLOOD (a purely pagan ritual that God ABHORS!!) as atonement for our sins.
NO FURTHER SCRIPTURES were given to mankind by God AFTER Mt. Sinai, therefore, Christianity absolutely did NOT come from God!
PLEASE buy a Hebrew Bible (says "Stone Edition TANACH" on the cover), and Rabbi Tovia Singer's books, as well as Rabbi Stuart Federow's book "Judaism and Christianity: A Contrast", to help you understand why Christianity absolutely did NOT come from God.
@@User-x5s3x It does not matter to me what you wrote. I am no christian but I see Jesus as the beautiful metaphor for God in skin and flesh. Agree religious Christians are so obsessed with the blood of Jesus which is not in the Bible. Rabbi Tovia is well read and I understand his point and frustration. But he cannot come to terms with Love/ spirit of God that is within us. He like the Hebrew Bible is sold on to this spooky external theistic entity and still waiting for a Messiah to liberate the Jews. The Muslims also feel their allah is living up in the sky.
I get so angry when I watch this channel. Not because of anything the Rabbi says, but because of how RUDE the guy is when he demands the caller to hang up the phone. I understand from a technical perspective why he does this, but if he ever ordered me to hang up my phone I would snap. In the words of Eric Cartman, "I do what I want!".
1. EACH PERSON IS BROUGHT UP IN THEIR RELIGION. THEIR R SO MANY ARGUMENTS WITHIN A GIVEN RELIGION OR OUTSIDE A GIVEN RELIGION. KNOWING WHAT IS TRUTH IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE. WE R NOT SCHOLARS .DOES THE JEWISH BIBLE EXPLAIN HOW NON JEWS WILL B JUDGED. DO A SHOW ON THAT. 2. ALSO DO SHOW ON Y WOULD JESUS DO THE THINGS HE DID. WHY ? DID HE HAVE NOTHING TO AND WAS BORED. THANKS
It's quite easy. Despite what Rabbi and everyone else claims, all religions are man's best effort to interpret the universe around them, the natural world and the creator.
Tenak does one thing in particular that makes it special, not divine, but special, the authors understood that you can't get something out of nothing and that there MUST be a single unified creator. That is the brilliance of Tenak, and the ideas based on that.
It doesn't make it the word of God.
Moses NEVER heard God's voice, there was a metaphor. Where is the proof, anyway??? NOWHERE.
Repent and believe the gospel of Jesus Christ...read Acts 2:38 ...wake up ! Wake up ! Wake up ! Please wake up !
