If I had men like this in my life as a child, I’d be an observant Jew today

[@adrianofmars]

I don’t follow any religion, but I want this man to be my grandpa 🥺

[@marybethleib8286]

Thank you for that! The more we know about each other the more we can come to understand and respect each other.

[@joenathan8059]

The orthodox Christians believes something similar to the Jewish conception of sin no?

[@albrown1812]

Where would we be without tech,the internet,RUclips? Learning in such a vast way, beautiful..

[@penname40]

Original sin? as in, Eve and Adam eating forbidden fruit? and that introduced this animal soul. How can a person introduce a second soul? Or was that animal soul already there and waiting for an opportunity to become activated in some way? Very interesting & confusing.

[@katme4676]

Easy and sensible. The duality and conflict we must deal with and master.

[@herzaislad]

Again, Islam and Judaism has the same teaching: you carry only your own sins, not somebody else's. Nevertheless, God is The Merciful, The Forgiving.
Salam...

[@cincylitigator4704]

Thank you rabbi. As a former messianic Jew I found this to be meaningful.

[@pinarellolimoncello]

Thank you for uploading video, brilliant.

[@leeanne333]

So I believe sin isn't the same thing in Judaism or Christianity, sin has a completely different meaning and idea. Shalom Ravi, thanks for that amazing explanation.

[@davidmarandi950]

You are correct. I agree. But I am a Christian.

[@kosmicwizard]

This explanation is simply beautiful!

[@johnguslen9315]

Very nice, thank you!
Sounds to me like judaism, in this regard, is more similar to buddhism than christianity or islam. But coming from totally different angles.

[@karloliver4949]

Excellent explanation. Simple but profound.

[@landenwest8114]

This is what my "group" of Christians/ family in christ believe

[@analiachyrnialisnichuk2125]

I have previously thought about it. when I was a kid my logic told me, it was not my decision neither have I asked to come to this planet. why this church puts on me a sin?

[@preussenuberalles1682]

Thank you, dear Rabbi, my soul was craving for this powerful teaching.
שלום

[@omniteksilbear4559]

Well said Rabbi.

[@korn5308]

I love your videos rabbi

[@elishalott8860]

Still learning here… great video ❤️

[@mycahsmith5615]

Orthodox Christians do not believe in the concept of original sin.

[@sissy9393]

That was beautiful and understandable. ❤️

[@bryanandkathynelson1217]

Thank you!

[@spoonfullofsugar6247]

This makes sense🙏

[@lautaroaguilar9584]

Excellent. Thank you. ❤

[@dirtyharrydefeatsislamblmt6900]

Thanks Rabbi , Shalom, Love, 😀😀😀🙏🙏👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️❤️✡️✡️

[@chestermazurowski5167]

Enlightening!

[@heathersteinhoff9540]

Thank you Rabbi.

[@SomeKindOfWoman]

Beautiful message 💕

[@williamhutcheson6511]

Excellent presentation. The Rabbi lays out the soul's route very well. For Jews and other non Christians it is through our mighty cerebrations. For Christians the road to retreival goes through the Almighty's impartations.

[@pressurexz]

same view as Islam

[@aamirahmed9303]

Very clear thoughts .... great work Rabbi!

[@MsARC]

AMEN.

[@leeanne333]

How can people who do not know what sin is, commit it if they were not even aware of what sin was, and why would Hashem put this temptation in the garden, free choice??? Hashem is clearly not that cruel!

[@Tetsuo112]

true rabbi...

[@PsychologyStud]

Not all Christians believe in original sin. It is largely a Catholic belief, but I am sure other sects believe it as well.

[@leeanne333]

I feel we have choices, but Hashem still controlled everything, and everything including time had to be set forth, so it had to happen, and I know Hashem knew it would happen, it was all part of His divine plan! Praise be to Hashem!

[@sheysheycho]

I jumped when I heard this.. a mans fall to sin is the introduction to another soul, which is an animal soul..

[@lkekama]

Hmm, insightful.
But what does holiness, perfection and communion with God look like, from the Jewish perspective (which is the Rabbi's standpoint)?

[@thelightofthebodyispineal7137]

This is empowering!

[@davidmarandi950]

But I still agree.

[@akg3ag]

I like this version bether than Christianity! I don't komfirm to any faith! But I belive ther something higher.

[@Ox4k1xO]

I agree with most of what has been said; indeed the original sin was a major cosmic event, it did not only created (what the rabbi calls animal soul) within human beings (the serpents seed, which fights with the seed of the woman), but actually introduced carnivorism and death into this world. However, to pretend that the messiah is just a political figure and is not related to the reversal of this cosmic schism, contradicts the prophecy of jesaja, which foresaw that all carnivorism on earth will end with the messianic age. Further, animal sacrifices were introduced by the schism, smth that Abel recognised through faith while Cain insisted on the mitzvah given by Elohim before the schism. Once the messiah comes, the schism will be gone, carnivorism will stop, the animal soul will disappear and all commandments given to Moses regarding the regulation of our animal soul will lose their purpose.

[@faiezaftab]

👍

[@advocategopendradhardiwan694]

Great

[@Jaggerbush]

Wow i never knew this and i like it. Why is it impossible or nearly impossible to convert to Judaism?

[@Kurt2222]

I'm a Christian but never accept the doctrine of original sin. This is a later invention that led to catholicism

[@darrenclayton8246]

I’m with Judaism on this one

[@elizabethjones2084]

I agree

[@myJLI]
