    I was in Brooklyn dealing with the tragedy of my brother’s suicide. I walked from my hotel to the ME’s office and was a mess. I somehow walked through Crown Heights and will never forget the kindness of this community. Strangers on the street could look at me and see the pain and they treated me beautifully. A man on the street asked me if he could help; I asked if there was a coffee shop nearby and he looked right in my eyes and said something about God granting me peace. Another lady in a bakery looked at me and motioned me to go ahead even though she was busy getting shopping done before sundown. She asked me if I was OK and I couldn’t even speak. Many other examples but this was in 2015 and I will never forget these strangers or the feeling I got walking through their neighborhood and trust me. It was so obvious I was not one of them yet…they saw, not a messed up, middle aged Irish southern Lutheran but a human lost and in pain. I want to one day go back and just walk through there again.

    I'm a nurse. Ìn the 90's i had a private duty case ìn New Square in Rockland County in NY. My patient was a Hasidic baby girl with spina bifida. It was a Friday night and in the morning i met the family. The parents were very nice and polite. The children were adorable. The house and the family were çlean and well cared for.
    I love and respect my Jewish brothers and sisters. There is no room for antisemitism or hate of any kind.
    Years later, ive often wondered how my fprmer patient is doing. 🙏 ❤

      The sadness that invades me when I stop to consider the similarities of Islam and Judaism. So many similar values. Truly if two religions should coexist in harmony, it is those two. As a person who was born a Catholic, but who is now a humanist, I utterly respect both religions. Treat each other as we wish to be treated, and the rest should take care of itself. We should be moral and kind. God bless you and your lovely family. Peace to you all

      The difference between Chabad and me is the same as between Evangelical Christians and me. They are both sects and 'need to do', in order do be 'holy'. They repeat what their leaders tell them to do and they can't form their own opinion. I don't have to do anything at all. I just am. God doesn't want us 'to do'. He wants us 'to be'.

      @신자 adriana starr Pardon me, but you should be so "incompetent" [sic] in your own role in life as a Christian. Where's the shame? Perhaps English is not your mother tongue (Korean?), in which case you are excused. Perhaps, also, you are unaware that the bible's text is not meant to be "literal". An "eye for an eye" would render us all blind in no time at all. May I suggest that you look into your "heart and soul" and dip into Maimonides' great work, 'A Guide for the Perplexed. Take care and may G-d bless you.

    The description this lovely Jewish wife gave for marriage went straight to my soul. I am a Christian, but was just as blessed by God to give me my precious husband. I knew I would marry him INSTANTLY...I was just 13 yrs old, and he was an older man of 14 yrs old. We are coming up to our 50th Golden Wedding Anniversary on February 12 and I still "yearn for him" every second of every day! I knew he was my husband instantly and it is a second when time stands still and God's still small voice speaks to my soul and confirms my yearning. We were just 16 yrs old when we married. The funny thing is, he is an Italian from Brooklyn and his mother told him just after we met and I had to leave, on the same day " John that girl has it for you and you have it for her. There goes your wife" We have never looked back and cannot be without each other. May we die in each other's arms if it pleases God. It is so difficult to try and explain the soul yearning to others. She has done it better than anyone I ever heard. You have a lovely family and may God continue to Bless you.

The wonderful people at Chabad "found" me some years ago and encouraged me to return to and participate in my local Jewish community, which just so happened to be Chabad at that point in my life. This was in a capital city located in South East Asia. My many conversations with Chabadniks left me with the distinct impression that Yiddish was the lingua franca of day-to-day communication within the community, with English or whatever " local" language learned as an add-on means of communication. Take care.

Practically all the adults I knew were alcoholics. My older brothers got in trouble with the law and my older sisters got pregnant. Grandparents dead. I would have given anything for loving stable parents and siblings with a strong sense of morals and values. Some of their customs are strange to me but I wish I had what they had.

When I met my husband (I was not Torah keeper) I knew in my heart he was the one. He asked me to marry him one month after we met and were married six months later.

    What a beautiful family and what a great understanding about the Bible! I’m a catholic Brazilian and never saw before some saying “we meet people”, surely that is better than dating people. They are right, life is about connecting people! That expression deeply touched my heart ! ❤ Shalom! May God bless you all! 🙏🏼

    I am a Christian. I live in Upstate New York near a Hasidic community. I’ve found some to be friendly and some not, but I’ve found that many times it’s how I approach. What my attitude towards them is that effects how they treat me. Sometimes they seem fearful, so I don’t push it.
    Also, I just wanted to say that there is so much love shown here it’s beautiful and I can be feel it throughout this video. I love your wife’s explanation of her yearning. It’s brilliant and beautiful and very accurate on how a good marriage and family stays close and strong. I don’t agree with every teaching here, but the main points I do agree with, that the wife and mother is the source of love and the father is the source of security. I wish you and your family much love and happiness.

    What a beautiful family! Judaism isn't my faith but I love to celebrate and learn about different people's beliefs and how it connects them to G-d. I must have a small ancient spark deep inside of me that draws me, (the curious, reverent, outside observer) back, and back again and again to learn more about G-D's Chosen People. No matter what my faith, the Rabbi, his family and community make a positive and uplifting impact on my spirituality;
    Thank you for creating this video and inviting me, the viewer, to share in your faith, wisdom, practice, traditions, laws and most of all, joy!

    What a wonderful family, this is exactly what draws me to Chabad Judaism from being raised a Christian.
    The sense of tradition and values is simply beyond measure here, and at the same time it's so natural.
    May Hashem Bless this family always

    Rivky's explanation of the woman's world in Hassidim was beautiful. As an atheist who's "culturally Jewish" I loved listening to her because, putting the Bible aside, this still makes so much sense to me. Beautiful family ❤❤

    What an absolute delight it was to watch this family. Brought tears to my eyes. The husband and children were ever so lovely but oh my god.. was it just me or is the wife not flooring in her wisdom and inner radiance? I was so moved by her. Her words and spiritual knowledge were astounding

    This is my first glimpse into the Lubavitcher sect. This particular community emanates such joy! Open and welcoming to all - yet still pious.
    As a Christian, this makes my heart smile.
    And a wife who was allowed to achieve success, then CHOSE a traditional life…with a husband who actively engages with his children.
    I feel like my incorrect perception of what it means to be Haredi - very stern, outsiders not welcome, participation in the “outside”world will lead you off the path - was based on what I’ve seen/read about the ways of another sect.
    I’d actually get on the horrendous BQE to take a tour to learn more, now that I know I will be welcomed, and our different faiths mutually respected
    Blessings to this beautiful family!

    😅 we also have 8 kids. It takes a bizarre blend of rigid routine and laxity to make it work, but it's a wild ride! Of all the stuff my husband and I have done in our lives, and we've done a lot, our biggest adventure and greatest honor is raising all these crazy kids the best we can and hoping they go out into the world and make their little corner of it a better place.

    It is impossible to look at your wife and not smile. She truly seems like a wonderful happy mother and wife. You’re a lucky man.
