The Grand Rabbi's Bagleiten Ceremony | HIGH HOLIDAYS in the streets of JEWISH BROOKLYN ep 6
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 20 ноя 2022
- For my last video in this series, I attend a Bagleiten. A Bagleiten is a special tradition of the Satmar sect, and it takes place at the end of three major holidays: Sukkos, Shavuos and Passover. The entire congregation accompanies the grand rabbi home at the end of each of these holidays, and the Rabbi steps out on the balcony to address the congregation. Hasidic Rabbis are in a way royalty, and this ceremony is a royal procession with the presence of the New York police force and lively crowds. Due to the split in the Satmar sect, the Bagleiten is not as big as it used to be.

This whole series has been great, mom! It's been a ton of fun to watch along, learn, and see the videos get better and better!
❤
She has gotten really good. She may want to tell people to like and subscribe so that she can get more viewers. The more viewers the better. She is very good.
Love this comment!
You have a wonderful, intelligent and talented mom, Seth! It’s a great privilege to learn from her, and I send you both my very best wishes! 🌠
Your Mum is a good lady Seth. She shows the Community in a very Positive Manner & as people steeped in Piety with a deep attachment to Family.
So happy to see your son appreciate your work !
This series is quite literally world class - whatever you do, don't stop doing this!
Love how you open up the world of our Hasidic neighbors with the non-Jewish community. I’m sure most of us disagree with the gender divides but these glimpses help us become more accepting of differences in our cultures. Thank you 🙏
Your son is correct. What a wonderful series, Frieda. Your storytelling abilities are evident as you guide us through these holiday celebrations. Other than Passover-and my depth of knowledge was very superficial-I didn’t know the meaning or significance of the other holidays. I can see how documenting this world is a labor of love for you. I’ve said it before and will say it again, I hope your channel continues to grow.
I was only in Williamsburg once, around 1987-1988; I went there to put up flyers advocating for the release of Jonathan Pollard; as I was taping a flyer to a telephone pole, a Satmar man asked me who Jonathan Pollard was; then he explained to me that no one else in the community would be interested in this issue because :
1 - the flyer was in English instead of Yiddish
2 - I was wearing blue jeans and nobody would be interested in an issue being publicized by an obvious outsider to their community
When I was done putting up the flyers I got a bagel and coffee in a Satmar restaurant and I saw all the baby strollers left outside unattended with the babies in them - I thought this was very unsafe but they did this in Crown Heights also where I was living at the time
Thank you for these great videos and for bringing back memories of my visit to Williamsburg many years ago
Happy Chanukah 🕎 !
Fabulous series, Frieda. Every video was better than the last. I hope there is more to come.
I am quite sad you left your community (for your sake), but grateful for your videos as they document a wonderful way of life. Blessings to you and yours!
I wish this whole series was on Netflix = )
So glad it’s not we would have to pay for it and this is the real thing / the community would never want to be interviewed by Netflix
Thanks for filming this series & sharing it with the RUclips world.
I am now addicted to your videos. I am not Jewish but I am a spiritualist from London UK. I enjoy learning more about your life and that of your community. I am also a food and travel writer so I look forward to seeing more delicious plates.
Great work Frieda. I learned so much. Thank you! I'm from Ontario Canada and loved seeing this side of New York City. I will continue to follow your journey 💕 . Wanda
May you be truly blessed with a healthy winter ,and thank you for sharing this
Beautiful. Please keep sharing events, traditions and stories. Our world needs this. You are teaching so many. Thank you. Very much.
That was quite interesting, thanks!
Absolutely wonderful. So interesting and informative. What a thoughtful vlog.
I've really loved this series, Frieda! Thank you for showing us such an interesting part of the world and sharing it in such a wonderful way. I hope you have a peaceful wintertime!
Fascinating channel. Love how everyone is together. Lots of traditions I don’t see in Torah. Although I’m certainly not an expert by any means of the Torah. Rabbi seems to be almost worshipped, reminds me of catholicism and pope
Hello Frieda thank u so much for explaining to us about Bagleiten. I begin to know more about Jews cultures and religion through your channel.
True happiness from the Creator. I like the message he gave.
You're making me cry and I don't know why :)
Thank you for the series. I can't wait to see what you come up with next related to judaism and jewish life
Thanks for the video and your dedication. Finny I didn't understand the word begleiten the way you pronounced it even if I knew it. My grandmother was from Satmar but she pronounced it differently more like an e instead a sounding for the first e.
Love your channel!
What a great series! Thank you for making these. Your videos help me to better understand our own large Orthodox community here. I live in the epicenter, and love learning more about Jewish life, as a gentile who is immersed by residence and as a shabbas goy.
Thank you so much for sharing. This has been a wonderful series. Learning so much about a fascinating religion.
Thank you so much for a great series, looking forward to future content
This vlog just popped up and it was a bit refreshing to see you bundled up for the winter when this was filmed. It will be in the 90's today which h is unusually cool for Desert Hot Springs, CA. There is a small Hasidic enclave nearby and on occasion some of the residents will walk past my house and we greet each other. I enjoy the diversity of this city! I enjoy the culture I am being introduced to and educated on through your excellent vlog content. It's a wonderful mitzvah!
I'm also enjoying looking at the cold now that it's so warm here in NYC (not quite as warm as there though, but I think it's probably more humid here). But when this was filmed it was brutally cold!
Absolutely fascinating!
Thank you for sharing ❤
great as always.... 👍👏👏👏
Špela
Very interesting! I just saw this. I will have to watch the others. Thank you for sharing!
Thanks again frieda !! You are so instrumental to my edification, fantastic and so so interesting!!!
Thanks for making and sharing and well wishes for winter.
wonderful series, schkoieh for your great job and waiting for Hannuka series!
Hello Freida I've enjoyed everything you've done and can't wait to learn more it's fascinating. Take care 💖
Thank you for sharing
Truly beautiful
These videos are so interesting! I can’t wait to go on a tour when I got to NYC!
looking forward to showing you around! :)
This custom is reminiscient of accompanying the Kohen Gadol to his home on Motzai Yom Kippur.
good point! I should have pointed out the shalosh ragolim connection.
Completely fascinating experience & you looked so beautiful too!
Glad to see local services present.
Beautiful
😊Thank you, Frieda, for this beautiful video🌈💥💥💥I was deeply and profoundly touched by the Rebbe’s Blessing🦋🦋Frieda, your short Video - Stories are utterly vital and important to show the World how WE REVERE G-D ❤Shalom to you , Pearland ALL yur wonderful and delightful Guests and beloved Family💥Violet (from Toronto and Australia) 🌲🌲🌲🌲🌳🌳🦚
Wow wow thank you :)
I can kind of understand why they gather since I was part of a zealous religious community once. It is definitely tiring and super socially/emotionally taxing to participate at this level! Thanks for sharing.
Yep. I was never the type to run to all sorts of things - too introverted -- but participated only a portion this year and ended the high holidays a good few pounds up and incredibly exhausted!
No one forces anyone to partipate in any way. People make calculated choices where they want to belong to whom and if tbey even want to. Free choice is the underpinning of our lives.
@@anonymousanonymous-qx7mv are you hasidic? I used to attend large, loud prayer gatherings and it took a toll on my nervous system. So I just enjoy watching online.
@@desertpriere I am...but you can always choose to go to low key synogogues. So many of them... where do you live?
Thanks for this video of the Bagleiten. I live in Boro Park as a non chasidik. I have yet to see this service in my neighborhood. Customs vary from sect to sect. I too was encouraged to marry young and didn’t work out.
Very cool thanks, I thought the crowns and Yechi wishes to the Rebbe was a chabad thing so interesting to see it for a living Rebbe
Same
It's a different Yechi. This one isn't proclaiming the "Messiah".
Long live ❤
I thought that was Diane Keaton in you thumb nail!!❤
As a Lubavitcher I got to be honest about my ignorance of other sects of Chassidus that say “Yechi”
Melch ha'moshiach leolom vh'ed
@@cohenlabe1 yes I understand the difference.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Zalmen Leib kind of like looks the part
your such an aroni! 😉
I am coming to NY from Dec 5-9th. Do you do personal tours of Williamsburg?
I'm not giving private tours, but I have regular tours for groups of 10. You are welcome to join. Check my calendar here to see if there's anything that works for you.

have a lovely trip. :)
@@FriedaVizelBrooklyn Thank you!!
I ma really curious to understand what the dispute is between the two brothers of the Satmar Rabbinic Dynasty. Please make a video so we can understand and also understand what the effects are on the community. Is there any hope of reconciliation?
The sect is now totally split in two and everyone gets on. The split is final, and the animosity has largely dissipated.
No free Bagels and cream cheese and lox?
Pledge loyalty? What does that mean?
What's weird is that how is he in the Succah on Simchas Torah.
Another amazing video, you’re a gem!
What is the story of the unfinished building surrounding the Satmar Rebbe's home?
good question! I wrote a blog post about it. It was part of the Rebbe's estate which the two brother's fought over but it could never be settled who it should go to.

How did you lose weight?
Why not wear the round fur hat like the others?
Wondering how large families avoid losing their kids at these gatherings, and if they do, how they locate them?
At the big gathering in Boro Park (called Simchas Bais Hasheiva) they literally announced that if anyone lost a child, or is a lost child, they should come behind the stage.
They stick together. Fathers take their young boys, moms their daughters. The older ones know their way home. They live THERE
Jews tend to view children as belonging to the entire community so they look out for them when they are not with their parents. And they all pretty much know each other. A lost child will never be left alone.
I wonder that with big Catholic families that go to see the pope
Does anyone in the Satmar community have ever heard of a certain individual by the name of Reb Borech Moscowitz. He lives on 683 Bedford Ave?
Yes he is a role model of "Hachnusas Orchim" a special person who takes in his home to eat meals people of the community who are alone and don't have family to go to on shabbos and Holidays,
@@hvacw116 He is a very good friend and I know him very well. I just have not been able to see him and his family in a very long time.
@@michaeldunetz90 I think he still lives there, I don't know him personally, but I know of him
I am thinking about one day Hashem willing that I would like to make a appearance in The Holy city of Williamsburg to visit him probably around Chanukah masrat Hashem.
If I may come with a request I think it would be very interesting to learn what the Hassidic jews think about us non-jews. I assume they all know what Rambam has written and they believe in it? There's some conserning videos from Israel where an Israeli ask Orthodox jews about their views of the goyim and it isn't very pleasant. Is this something you could give us an insight into?
I don't know if you missed my question or if you don't want to respond. What I've read orthodox jews think we goyim are beasts and our only purpose is to serve jews. Would you say this is true or not? I read the book "Ok amen" by Nina Solomin where she describes how little orthodox children plays with a doll and smashes its head to the ground while shouting "goy! goy!" Is the resentment towards non-jews a big problem in the orthodox community?
😍🥹🥲👋🏽
Actually the Beirach Moishe did appoint his older son when he was well and the fight was about not accepting that decision by the younger sons followers. Long and detailed and a bit painful to explain here.
That’s the story I knew. Moshe Gabi, the Rebbe’s handler, argued that this wasn’t the Rebbe’s decision. That was the story in our home and Moshe Gabi was the villain. But I wonder what story the Zalman’s side told?
@@FriedaVizelBrooklyn moishe gabi is the Zalmen side
@@anonymousanonymous-qx7mv of course. but they said he's the one who led the entire push to prop up Zalmen and to distort the rebbe's wish.
@@FriedaVizelBrooklyn very true...ask Pearl...she'll tell you😊
@@FriedaVizelBrooklyn the other side (Zalonim) claim that the father Moshe Teitelbaum wrote in his will that Zalmen Leib should be his successor. The aronim claim that the will was not valid since it was written when the old rebbe was senile.
I hope this clarifies 🙃
The herd and the shepherd. I am too agoraphobic for that hive mentality.
I love Satmar 💘💗♥.
So weird that they say yechi after all they did to Chabad.
I had no idea that chabad considers yechi a chabad thing. What do you mean "they did to chabad"?
@@FriedaVizelBrooklyn I haven't heard of it being sung before any other rebbe's. They messed with one's beard came out against all the campaigns and taught their followers to not see them as equivalent Chassidic Jews.
@@myopinions1 it's interesting because I've heard from Satmarers that Chabad is the one pulling away from the rest. One thing is for sure: I didn't know Chabad was Hasidic until after I left.
@@FriedaVizelBrooklyn They've definitely convinced everyone that they're an other which makes it easy to attack when you don't see them as part of the same group. But they trace better than most other Chassidic groups back to the Bal Shem Tov the founder of the Chassidic movement and embody the goals and standards he set. Which differentiated themselves from the standard mussar movement.
It seems that with such a separation of the sexes, for the women it would be life in a hens’ nest. You could not participate in community events with your husband. Enter be able to get along with other women or it seems your life would be very lonely
SOOOO CREEPY!!!
what is?
Fascinating stuff, per usual!
Thank you!
Hi Frieda, I love your channel ❤ is there an email address where i can contact you?
Nothing to do with Bagels 🥯?
Not at all
ooboy! 😂
I have been to a couple of these events at the end of the high holy days when I was in Williamsburg.
There is a minhag among Persian and Bukkarian Jews in which they don't eat Fish and milk together. So Bagels and lox and cream cheese and Hering with cream sauce which is actually polish herring is not a good idea. But for a Russian Polish Jew ✡ like me this was a big part of my childhood.
