Beating Minecraft, But I Can't Break the Laws of Judaism

- In this video, I attempt to beat Minecraft, but there's a catch. I have to follow the Jewish 613 commandments in the process of doing so!

Minecraft but you can't break the laws of physics
You can’t punch a tree to get wood the moment u enter
The tree punches you - Newton’s Third Law.
Impossible the rules of physics break the moment you break a block
@purrgiri9862and water bucket clutch
Praise be science
@purrgiri9862 not if all physical blocks of minecraft are actually 99% air, and steve is simply capable of compressing them into a very small brick, then reinflating it upon placement
you could have eaten salmon or cod and also been fine since the laws of kashrut for slaughtering fish aren't the same as meat or poultry
But chicken tasty
Also smoked salmon bagels are associated with Jews too right?(I haven't tried it but it sounds s
Delectable)
Mooshriom too
@Enlightenedfrommistakesthat they are. In kashrut there's 3 categories of kosher food: meat, dairy, pareve (pronounced par-v or par-ehv) which is neither meat nor dairy. It's forbidden to mix milk and meat or eat it together (from a simple cruelty law of not cooking a kidd in its mothers milk, was extended to poultry bc at times it looks similar and is prepared in much the same way), however because the nature of fish is so much different than land animals and doesn't require a shochet, fish are considered pareve. So something like cream cheese and lox is 100% kosher
With fish you just gotta eat fish that have scales, otherwise they aren’t kosher
I know this probably goes against the spirit of the challenge, but in Judaism you are allowed to break any commandment if it's necessary to survive (e.g. you're allowed to eat pork if you were starving and it's the only food available). I think, at the very least, you would have been justified in skipping those prayers while fighting the Blazes.
the prayer is also after you're done eating not between loafs
@DavidRatafia There's also no requirement afaik to start praying as soon as you swallow the last bite.
Starting a Jewish run in the desert is actually divine intervention cuz what in the hell 😭
Of course bro spawns in the middle of the desert 💀
Bro hit the Moses run 😭
that made me lol that he didn't even acknowledge it
That seed was promised to him 3000 yrs ago
@Macedthur incredible
@Couldbedumber cue Rameses screaming Moses in the distance
12:13 soiled the tabernacle immediately after it was built by walking inside of it while not being a descendant of Aaron. Run’s dead
Cannot build the tabernacle because he has killed animals
all time comment
@jonnymon42 he specifically hasn't killed animals
@mloxardhe killed mobs out of necessity, which is allowed, but that still means he has been in the presence of the dead and therefore must purify himself before building/being in the presence of the Tabernacle.
The purification process needs to be done using the ashes of a sacrificed red heifer… which would have been fun to see in minecraft since he could have used a mooshroom lol
@jonnymon42 Can a mooshroom be a heifer, though, when the species appears to be hermaphroditic?
You don't have to recreate THE Tabernacle. You merely have to build a sukka/ temporary dwelling with 3 Walls and a thatched roof that allows rain and starlight through.
2 full walls and more than half of another to be exact
"The cubit is an ancient unit of measurement equal to half a Minecraft block." --Socrates
No, because a cubit is actually 1 "ama" which is equal to around half a metre , and since a Minecraft block is a metre, this actually is accurate.
@shuldekid That's only in one dimension. In 3D, it's 1/8 of a block
@shuldekid If it’s accurate why did you say no?
@dogma-e8xbecause in the comment he was implying that this has no back, and as a joke said it was an ancient saying.
@inanjarif1388 when your son is a geek
So much work, so much dedication, only to find out that your sacred mission has failed because your game character is not circumcised.
Schrodinger's. How do you know when there is no way to check? Maybe you are.
Minecraft characters don't have a sex, stop inserting your antisemitism into a game that literally has rules on enforcing androgyny
and how does thou know this? 🤔
@waretaSL dude you cant take a joke can you
@waretaSL It was a joke, also not antisemitic that's literally a feature of the religion.
You forgot two builings:
1) A synagogue
2) Another synagogue you'd NEVER go to
I remember a comedian doing a joke like that about two jews on an island, but i cant quite remember who
LMAOOO TRUE
only us jews can find that one funny LOL
"That's the one I go to, and that's the one I do not go to"
You forgot the one for one your broigus with your current one.
17:11 "Oh gosh" run finished you broke one of the first commandments
16:56 was probably cut out "Oh my God" too
14:39 “Oh my gosh."
Someone should make a datapack that smites you if you violate a commandment.
Well, not really, because G-d won't smite you for breaking a commandment. That's not how the Jewish G-d works. But we are actually working on a data pack that will mark a food as kosher or non kosher, will say when shabbat is, and a few other details.
@remitirasif you violate too many rules or violate a crucial rule then you can't respawn anymore.
@V2_SupremeMachinewhy wouldn't you be forgiven?
@V2_SupremeMachineif you violate a rule you are sent to the nether. Aka hell 😂
Let you get an special bundle and some paper, the papers telling you what religions you wanna respect, once done you throw the bundle and then the run start with the rule of everything you put in the bundle
just for those wondering, it's not possible to do all 613 even irl, you would have to be a woman and a man and cohen and a king (cohen\king is conflicting).
And some haven't been possible since the destruction of the temple lol
And all of that only from the Torah, there is more from rabbais
I’m Jewish im very familiar on how hard it is to
Especially in the modern day when literally 343 of the commandments are tied to Israel/the Temple... Also divorce is a commandment too but thank God not everyone has to do that.
Yeah, you're not meant to do all of them, only the ones given to who you are. The funniest part though, Is that he Judaism isn't missionary and he is probably not Jewish, meaning he only had to do 7 very easy laws
12:12
Bro entered the most holy place and he is not a high priest 💀
It was probably yom kippur
He entered the Tabernacle impure. That's already an issue. I've posted multiple comments on mistakes like that. You can look through and try to find them 😂
Not even the high priest could enter whenever he wants, only on yom kipper st a specific time
Who says he wasn't the high priest? But yeah I thought that too XD
Yom kapper ? Does that mean the big day or the biggest day ? I'm an Arabic speaker so i ask to know since that what it's mean in Arabic anyway@tntwarrior789

@Defender-j2nJust another way kids are writing"first"
@typerplay i must say that does make sense, as it honestly looks dumb.
30% of the video: actually trying to beat the game
70% of the game: tabernacle
You held a shovel during the sabbath, that’s kinda illegal
Good point
@GuyBord0you gotta do this again youtube boy
Depends on whether you are reform, conservative, or orthodox. If you are orthodox yeah but conservative and reform are a bit more (for lack of a better word) lenient with that kind of thing.
Well, holding it isn't necessarily the same thing as using it for working, and it's unrealistic to imagine being incapable of holding anything on shabbat
@sternodirthy”it’s RUclips boy” … “he can Minecraft that”
Popular mmos arrest
Judaism actually allows for most rules to be ignored if someone's life is in danger
Cant wait for beating Minecraft while following Zoroastrianism
was literally thinking that
The only one that bans slavery. In a real Minecraft world that would be disastrous
Yes
Don't forget Hinduism and Buddhism
i legitimately want this
11:27 dude's just casually sitting in the holy of holies without wearing the proper garments.
Iirc while building it's okay, hollyness gets to the place only after its finished..
@farpurple doesn;t it have to be dedicated like how the LDS temples have to be dedicated before use?
Don't feel bad for losing in the credits, you actually lost way before - you never prayed BEFORE eating and you cut down an apple tree, and it is forbidden to cut down fruit trees 🙃
And let's not forget it wasn't necessary he killed the chicken and squid, he could get both items through other means 😭
oy vey
Isn't there an exception to the fruit tree thing if there's a greater need for the wood of the tree?
@LittleSkellie how
@juwebles4352 Yes, in Jewish law preservation of a life is much more important than some of the laws
Don't many Jewish communities have wires around them so that they still can do stuff on The Sabbath? Also, I'm pretty sure that Jewish days begin and end at sunset.
The “Moses approved” shot of the tabernacle cracked me up
I see what you did there
So I'm not really religious, but at about 3:30, I think found a flaw in your methodology. I think that pikuach nefesh, the imperative for the preservation of human life, would let you stop praying if you were being attacked to save yourself. You can break basically any Jewish law to save your life or someone else's.
Some things are following the rule of "whatever makes the video more interisting", its not ideal when its Something educational but its RUclips so It works
As a Jew yes this is correct, Hashem values your life if you are in grave danger
I wish they followed that rule in Gaza but nope
@s1lents0unds Does this apply to palestinians
@Guy_on_RUclips its cus the state of Israel does not Care about Its own beliefs
Wait until he finds copy and paste
For anyone wanting to do this challenge: you can get feathers without killing chickens by finding them in shipwreck chests, and you can wait for a squid to kill itself.
Thanks but I prefer to burn in hell forever
taking from chests that aren't yours seems like stealing.
@Khanstant it is abandoned with no clear sign of retrieval
@Khanstant jews do it all the time
and! wolves and foxes will kill chickens on their own!
A few things
1. Jews actually pray 3 times a day- once in the morning before midday, once in the afternoon before nightfall, and once at night preferably before midnight
2. Jews make blessings before and after eating, and they differ depending on what you are eating
3. You don't need to stay in your house all shabbat, you just can't travel a certain distance from where you were when shabbat fell (unless you build an eiruv which I'm not getting into as its very complex)
4. You shouldn't be handling items of work on shabbat as they are forbidden, therefore you should have placed your shovel, pickaxe, etc. in a chest before shabbat
5. You don't need to build a tabernacle lol, it was only needed when the jews were stuck in the desert on their way out of slavery in egypt
6. I notice you have a field. There are many commandments regarding giving a corner of your field to poor people and not benefiting from fruits until their 4th year.
7. Since the trees in minecraft contain apples, they'd be considered fruit trees. You are forbidden from cutting down fruit trees under jewish law
8. You can wear gold and Iron armor at the same time, the commandment is only that you shouldn't wear wool mixed with linen
9. you can eat a lot of bread and make one blessing after lol, you don't continuously repeat the blessing after every bite.
10. I know this is all for fun and I really enjoyed watching this video, this was just something I wanted to add lol
Yeah metzitzah bpeh
As a human I think you should not genocide on Palestina, should that not be a rule?
@arnoutvanderfeesten924well as human with more than room temperature iq i think palestine shouldn't att@ck a much much more power country than them? But they did it now they are getting the reaction of their actions
@arnoutvanderfeesten924 There is a rule that allows you to kill someone who tries to kill you
@arnoutvanderfeesten924 leave now
You broke the law "Not to eat fruit of a tree during its first three years"
Its only in the land if israel
True… better trust me, I’m a Jew myself
If you look at the trees in Minecraft they're all older than three years according to their rings! So technically he didn't!
And not to destroy a fruit giving tree 🙈
@user-ii4nm6fk7xthat rule applies everywhere. You're thinking of fruit tithes (shmittah)
he spawned in a dessert in a jewish speedrun😭😭
Sorry man, but you failed the challenge.
The Tabernacle is not allowed to be built with any tools of iron.
PRINCE SIDON PFP!!!
BEAUTIFUL SHARK MAN
WHAT
Bro didn't put a mezuzah on his doorframe
Yeah he shoulda made a button
Don't forget to place the mezuzah on the door
Amen
Edit: Thanks for all the likes!
Not cool man you liked that yourself
@WillemKlop-ct2rq no.
BRO. You're overthinking "Thou shalt not kill." Zombies and skeletons are already dead.
Also, isn't it meant in the sense of "shalt not murder"? I don't think it was ever actually intended to forbid self-defense.
Also skeletons and zombies are unholy too, skeletons are brought back by necromancy and zombies through a virus. So killing them and other undead/elemental/spirit/demonic mobs are fair game
Yes, but with videos like these, overthinking is a part of the challenge. If you go too lenient on the rules, it's going to be too easy and not as entertaining.
@TheKatti5000that is a good point, but the challenge rules aren't too lenient, since he gotta follow the Torha
@TheKatti5000You still think that undead and demonic mobs be on the table still?
9:47 is amogus kosher
Yes, as long as you are crew mate
No, they're impure. Also there's no tradition on eating them.
I'm pretty sure it's a graven image
Welcome Elamor!
That would be really funny
As someone who was raised quite religious and attended several years of Jewish education (but is no longer a practicing Jew) I loved this video!! I think you did an amazing job of capturing the spirit of the religion and following it to the best of your ability in Minecraft. Just for fun, I wanted to write out my take on this challenge.
- I agree with the idea that there's no kosher way to kill an animal in Minecraft, and that doing a vegetarian run is the only way to keep kosher. However, in my opinion, the rule about praying after meals was way more complicated than it needed to be! As long as all the food is consumed within a short period of time to constitute one meal, you don't have to say the prayer after every single piece of food eaten. I think it would've been a fair following of the rule to only say the prayer after a fight was completed.
That being said, the rules about eating bread are more complicated than other foods. You need to ritually wash your hands before eating bread, and the prayer you say after you're done is several paragraphs long. Following those rules would be significantly harder. Also, as another person already pointed out, you need to pray before eating as well as after eating.
- Killing in cases of self defense is allowed in Judaism. In my opinion, any of the hostile mobs are fair game to be killed.
- You can leave your house on Shabbat as long as you're not carrying anything.
- You don't need to build a tabernacle. That part honestly made me laugh because it feels so absurd as a (former) practitioner of modern Judaism, it's such an archaic practice. As far as I'm aware no one's built one for like 3000 years. Instead, I'd build a mikvah (a ritual bath) and a synagogue.
- Writing out the entire Torah in books *technically* doesn't create a Torah, it creates a Chumash (which is basically just the Torah in book form). That being said, it is far more common for a person to own a Chumash. Torahs are usually just for synagogues.
This was a really fun and impressive video. I enjoyed it a lot!!
there is fish in minecraft so you can eat fish
There is also the fact that you can kill any animal you want, but you just can’t eat there meat unless you killed them correctly way to eat them. So killing a chicken and squid for the products is totally fine
@jasonskeans3327 True! I forgot that you can fish in Minecraft.
How do you create a torah if copying it doesnt count? Does a holyman need to write it?
@Williq1
Needs to be in a scroll.
1:40 I feel like it should be even worse when you talk about their G-d like he’s Voldemort
Pikuach Nefesh means if doing a mitzvah would cause you to be put in harms way that you are actually required not to do it. So typing the prayers in between your Blaze fight was actually breaking tora
pikachu nerf fresh 😱
It's ok, he's shoteh
@ray_m1410yeah so feel free to end it all
@ray_m1410 Pikachu, I choose jew!
I'm fairly certain that a major caveat of the "Thou shall not murder" rule is "He who rises to kill you, rise earlier to kill him first" meaning that if you are certain someone is hostile to you and intends to kill you, you may, and in fact should, kill him first. Also, a major caveat for *most* laws is that you are allowed to break them to save a life. So in a survival situation you don't actually need to follow most of these rules.
True 👍 ✔️
@Lior_king2not true 👎🚫
The law about killing someone intending to kill you only allows you to kill someone who actively tries to kill you and you can't stop him by jailing him or any other means
@AverageReplyer Maybe true 🤙❓
You missed a super easy commandment: put the commandments of the lord on door posts. In real life Jewish houses, you'll find small rectangular boxes called mezuzahs attached the wall by doors. They contain a small scroll with a quote from the Torah. You could have easily done that with a sign!
It's called a mezuzah
Metzitzah B'peh.
@Imficial Millions of Christians and Muslims practice FGM. An estimated 230 million women and girls alive today have undergone the procedure. Meanwhile, the vast majority of Jews haven't even heard of Metzitzah B'peh, and almost all Orthodox Jews are strongly against it, as the medical risk it poses entirely contradicts Judaism. No more than a few hundred globally accept this obscure ritual.
@Imficial An estimated 230 million women and girls alive today have undergone FGM, mostly in Christian and Muslim communities. Meanwhile, the vast majority of Jews haven't even heard of Metzitzah B'peh, and practically all Orthodox and non-Orthodox who have heard of it are strongly against it.
@Imficiallargely only practiced in ultra Orthodox communitys
Minecraft but you can’t break the laws of North Korea 🇰🇵💀
Or South Korea, if we actually want any reliable source of information. For how bad North Korea is, it's not exactly open about what goes on the inside. from what I've heard, South Korea isn't that great, essentially cranking all the bad elements of capitalism to 11 - including legal monopolies that openly tear apart the entire country into an unsustainable country that could completely cease to exist within a few generations.
@michaelwashboard r/pyongyang resident has emerged into the free internet
the "NOT KOSHER" stamp sent me into absolute orbit but the chat being full of the shema and abridged birkat hamazon when you went to bed quite possibly killed me. peak cinema, truly.
The “heavenly” music he plays explaining the verses takes me out everytime
“Whatever gets me to heaven” ahh Steve
I can't full my head with bloom
Its not what judaism is about
Worst part is that Jews dont even have an official "Heaven" 😭im a jew and all of these rules are just way to hard to follow, i dont even both
@geeseguy1758C Moon
@jhonmenti3300C moon
11:47 it does not seems right to get gold from hell to build the tabernacle
why not? it's where their god lives
@subaruxv19Look at yourself, a teen/grown man sitting in his room spreading hate and lies. Pathetic
@subaruxv19no, doesnt he live in heaven according to the torah? What are you on abt? Im not even religious but even i agree thats still messed up to say
@subaruxv19 source: yes
@ItsDaryl_Gamingonyt I think he meant to be disrespectful
3:05 you also have to say a blessing BEFORE you eat food, and there are different ones depending on what food you ate. Also, you don't have to say the blessing after eating instantly, there are certain rules (yes, more rules) that tell you how long you can wait under what conditions until it's "too late" for you to say a blessing after eating.
This is the ultimate online algorithm cheat code actually lmao
Killing something that's trying to kill you is by definition not murder.
That's my biggest pet peeve in language rn. Murder is a crime that needs to fulfill certain criteria (the unlawful killing of another human without justification or valid excuse committed with the necessary intention as defined by law according to Wikipedia) and should not be used in the same breath as manslaughter. Killing people isn't illegal (see executions, self defense, soldiers etc), even when it is morally appalling, like women being hanged for being raped in certain countries.
@magnusbane420 tell me you are German without telling me you are German
@DerGerdflecklöserJa? NEEIINn!!!
@DerGerdflecklöser as an American I personally think this is fine
@DerGerdflecklöser Oi vey Rabbi your nose came through my screen and poked me in the eye. Here take my shekels and leave please you money hungry disgusting Jew.
For anyone curious on the sabbath we do leave the house. We just cannot carry things outside of the home unless certain circumstances are in place
Imagine building an eruv around the village.
You can’t carry clothes outside then?
@crazysanta6641 only things you are wearing
including jewelry
@crazysanta6641things you’re wearing do not count (so even something like jewelry or a belt is fine) but you can’t have things in your pockets. In most communities they build what’s called an eruv which is basically a string around the community which means it’s considered all one area and you can carry so this only applies where there is no eruv or some sects of Judaism do not believe an eruv has that ability and still would not carry
@crazysanta6641 Wearables are an exception (pockets aren't). However there are some fun loopholes that you can still exploit such as making carryable items such as keys a part of your wearables. For instance imagine cutting your belt, punching an extra hole in your house key, and using that key as a "glue" to hold the two parts of your belt together. Since you're technically wearing that key, you can carry it with you outside of the Eruv. Judaism is a fun religion.
Dude your editing rocks and this concept is so fun. Definitely learned a few things from this video, super well done. Subscribed !
as a jew, i can confirm that was the way we beat minecraft
🫵🏻🔥👹🔥
Same
im surprised he didn't Grape any villagers
@rouged0 Read the description of the video and also Israel has not raped Palestinian civillians or terrorists, and if they did, it was a select few, and they went to jail for it. It's basically the other way around. Hamas has raped many women that were kidnapped and taken hostage
@Reid-h2c your wrong there is no proof that Hamas has raped, not a single piece of evidence but there is VIDEO proof of IDF soldiers doing it to Palestinian prisoners, sybau 🥀✌️
People beat Minecraft without breaking the laws of buddhism. And add a mod which makes you respawn anytime as a random mob
This would be so funny
@thiago292 yeah and based on your choices and actions from your previous respawning, you'll respawn as better or worse mobs. So being very buddhism comforming, you might spawn as a very powerful mob like the ender dragon or the wither the next time you respawn. And being very bad probably results into respawning as a fish
I wanna see this!
Basically Cosmology of Kyoto
Here are some more rules:
1. Completely, utterly pacifistic. You. Can't. Kill. Anything. Can't even make them suffer. So no honey from bees nests, no taking villager crops to the point they would starve, no trapping anything directly, no shearing in cold biomes, shearing constantly in hot biomes, etc.
2. No intoxicants or anything that alters your character. No potions, no spider eyes, no enchanted grapples, nothing.
3. Absolutely no stealing or taking anything not caused by your direct effort.
4. Must show compassion to all beings. If an animal is trapped, you must free it. If a villager does not have a house anymore, you must build one.
And to make sure you're following the Eightfold Path...
1. Right View: You must always consider the consequence of Every. Single. Action.
2. Right Intention: No raging, surviving purely of the absolute bare minimum you have to
3. Right Speech: Must always narrarate with kindness and honesty. No negative speech.
4. Right Action: Along with the rules above the Eightfold Path, you can't needlessly destroy the environment.
5. Right Livelihood: Live in a minimal hut with minimal belongings. No trading from villagers
6. Right Effort: Must always play calmly and mindfully. No rushing or exploitation. Must take time to let go of any frustration
7. Right Mindfulness: Must comment on all actions/feelings happening around them or to the player/GuyBord0 himself
8. Right concentration: Any major event (spawning, building your shelter, building a portal, building your farm, dying, etc) must be proceeded (or succeeded if it happens to you) by 30 minutes of meditation (so be still and crouched. This can be done even more accurately facing a black wall to replicate eyes being closed.)
That should cover the basics of it!
16:55 man 100% said "oh my god" here but chickened out of resetting the challenge 😭
He said oh my gosh
As someone raised jewish and isn't super religious but ethnically I consider myself a jew through and through-- this video was great and hella entertaining. Others have already mentioned a few missteps, but honestly for someone who isn't jewish this is super impressive. Judaism is super nitpicky and we have literal religious texts where religious leaders simply argue with each other over EVERYTHING, so it's really cool to see you try to balance all of the intricacies. In a time where it's been a bit rough, it's nice to see a sort of appreciation of our culture. So, thank you.
5:25 bro forgot to pray in the morning
❤
True, but as others have said and I will tell you personally, when in a life or death situation, most rules can be ignored at least temporarily. There are some that can’t be ignored like praying to other gods. But for the most part, it’s generally accepted that in a life or death situation if you can’t afford to do certain things, you’ll be fine. Also Jews don’t believe in hell or heaven as a definite. Essentially hell is a place where souls go to be cleansed before going to heaven, I say this, because unlike other religions committing a sin is not the same in Judaism as it is in other religions. As long as it just means that your soul needs to be cleansed for longer. By the way, I was told Judaism is that if you have good intentions, and you intend on keeping your mitzvahs, then you’ll be good. Though, I converted conservative Judaism so this is just my opinion.
In Islam
Prayer is daily (fajr,dhuhur,asr,Maghrid and isha
@opticfloyyyd If I remember correctly, in Judaism everyone is born with a mission they don't know, and if they die without fulfilling that mission or if they did something wrong, they simply reincarnate and have the opportunity to do it again until they achieve it
True
As a Jew something I've got to mention. You can ignore all of the commandments in a life-or-death situation. It's called Pikuach Nefesh "a principle that the preservation of human life overrides virtually any other religious law or commandment". For example, if you're almost dead from hunger and the only thing to eat is pork, you're allowed to eat it.
Also Jewish, this is what I was thinking the entire time when he was stopping to pray while being actively attacked. Like Bro! Pikuach nefesh!
also as a jew, not all commandments are overwritten when in danger, there are still 4 that you are not allowed to break and are required to give your life in place of breaking
@ofrigal9557well dont leave me hanging?? what 4 are those!!!
So... he could have just finish the fights before praying for eating food this whole time?
@ofrigal9557sameee what are those four
4:39 As a religious Jew, there is a law that says if a person comes to kill you, you must kill him and save your own life.
what about Avodah Zarah 26b
“A gentile-it is forbidden to rescue him from a pit... and forbidden to heal him.” you people are absolutely repulsive. Jesus is your messiah.
must? like absolutely must? oh and do you do metzitzah b'peh
@yulurkinbrah what do you have to say about leviticus stating that men are worth more than women?
@kvikerplays1684g-d save Aisha🆘️🤞
@kvikerplays1684 yes. But it’s only if you are absolutely sure (without any doubt) that this person wants to k*ll you, this person is going to try to k*ll you, and there is no other way to stop person from doing it
16:45 you said "oh my gosh!".
Jew here, there probably should’ve been a rule to say the shema if you’re in a place where you could die, in case you do, since the laws of Judaism encourage that one’s last words are the shema
why don’t you tell the fine people of this comment section that your talmud equates them to dogs. you people hold some of the most repulsive beliefs i’ve ever come across. Jesus is your messiah.
Also, life and survival are the ultimate laws, for example you can eat non-kosher foods if the alternative is starving to death. So, not praying in an active war zone might be forgiven as well.
FREE PALESTINE
@OmarSamara-f9j no
Get well soon
Dude is covering his basis so he can never pick the wrong faith.
this guy’s a more devout jew in minecraft than I am in real life
My thoughts exactly xD.
Ive been studying for 7 years and I STILL learned something HELP
Dang!
Lmao same XD
Where's your tabernacle huh? HUH??
7:11 that's an... ehm... unfortunate "meme".
Beating minecraft while you can't break scientology rules
Bro finna be out-ethics
If you assumed that the villagers are Jewish too, that means that the villagers practice Peah. That means that they grow the corner of their fields for passing travellers, so you can take from the corner of villager's fields.
fun fact: notch was antisemitic and literally based the villagers on antisemitic stereotypes: greedy and rich, big noses, golems (which are a part of jewish folklore). so in a way, yes
@AxytheAxolotl-t7ti dont like notch but i am pretty sure he didnt create villagers with trading in mind
@seamastertheuloathe may not have, but he certainly did have antisemitism in mind
lmao jewish people wouldn't do that
@AxytheAxolotl-t7t what source did you get this from?
So caveat to the fighting: Self defense isn't murder. It isn't murder if you are defending yourself from something that wants to take your life.
0:15 uh I can confirm this is true
Out of curiosity in hebrew Jews don’t say God correct but rather something like Hashem which translates to something like sacred name or the name correct?
@valvevacs I don't know I'm from a Muslim family yes Israelis and Palestinians practice the same thing of circumcising their sons around the time they are infants
@valvevacsas an Israeli, (not a believer), I can say that Hashem is Hebrew for "the name" in English. The sacred name for God in Judahism is smth like "Yehoveh".
@Baconister6but what would be “God” literally translated in english from hebrew
@valvevacs"Elohim" or "Elokym" if you arent talking to him directly
0:35 bro nobodys getting to Olam Ha-Ba
Dw bro
For those who don't know: this literally means "The World to Come" and more idiomatically means "Heaven / the afterlife"
@columbus8myhw”The Next World”
@R0DBS That's a good translation too, I forgot that "ha-ba" can be translated as both "coming" and "next"
U automatically get there after a year
1:43 As a jew you failed in the first minute because it's forbidden to chop fruit trees even during war
Huh, I'm Jewish too and even I didn't know that. Guess you learn something new each day! 😊
are they true fruit trees? they drop fruit but are called oak which isnt a fruit tree
@pallukun i know it's oak but in the minecraft universe they drop apples, so it's a fruit tree. therefore it's forbidden to chop it down
Okay I thought there was a tree-related commandment since I knew there were several religious holidays about it but I couldn't remember - thank you!
thank you Wise Mystical Tree for your tree knowledge 🌳 🙏
By far the silliest way I’ve ever learned anything about a culture foreign to me lol
6:44 I actually like simple builds like this, I feel modern Minecraft design is too busy with gradients and detailing
67
@christofthini5136It's not funny
@christofthini5136 67

18:49 Actual jump scare holy
Did we need that reveal bro 💔
@Aurora_Animates yes WE needed the armpit reveal 🤤💦
@Aurora_AnimatesThat reveal we did not want, but we did deserve
i licked my screen man ffs
@Aurora_Animatesi dont think so🙂
9:02
As someone who converted to Orthodox Judaism, I remember the first time I went to a syngogue and the Rabbi forgot the English translation for acacia... this prompted half the symagogue ti immediately start arguing with himself and eachother over what the word would be. For ten minutes.
It was then that I knew I found my people.
SO you were a not-orthodox jew?
Of the religions I have experience with, if I was forced to choose one it'd probably be Judaism. I think it is funny, but most logical that I'd be able to argue with God to some extent. They also seem to actually know what they are talking about in synagogue, unlike every church I've ever had the misfortune of being in.
@Gandhi_Physique Christianism is actually one religion where you not only are allowed to debate about the bible but one that teaches us to do so. In corinthians paul writes "if Christ be not risen, then our preaching is vain, and your faith is also vain.", which means that we should investigate our own religion. Christianity invites you to investigate it, because it knows Christ is the truth, so even if you try your hardest researching against it, you will know Christ is the truth.
@Gandhi_Physique wait how does debating with an qll knowing being responsible? Lol
It's a religion for nerds, by nerds. The Talmud is the world's greatest Forum Thread Which Got Way Out Of Hand.
6:00 finally some speedrun youtuber who doesnt call dirt hut a house
seeing the chat full of the shema and hamozi is when i knew you committed to the bit😂love it, great vid. surprisingly accurate too.
3:14 you forgot mincha. which is basicly just praying the 18 brachas
Well to be fair he didn't say the full Shacharit or Arvit/Maariv either
@detex248yeah.
He can’t do it though he doesn’t have 10 men
@F1nalConthat's different.. you can still pray. You just can say kadish.
@SRon.11 he probably pushed mincha and marriv into one. And he doesnt even have teffilin.
14:38 - "Oh my Gosh", originated from "Oh my God", which is taking the lords name in vein, runs dead.
Eh, god is a vibe kinda monster.
And you failed the vibe check in “vein”
As a Jew who is Extremely Familiar with Jewish Laws, here are things you failed at
1: Fish is allowed, just not shellfish. No Ethical Killing Required, and Fish does not count as Meat either, so Dairy Works with it
2: You can Break Every Single Rule if you're trying to save your life
3: Fun Fact, to make a Torah, all you have to do is write a Single Letter in one and that Counts
he could have killed a lot more entities as well.
all hostile mobs and every neutral mob that decided to start a fight.
Single letter? So like, the Hebrew equivalent of the letter E would've been enough?
I didn’t know this- which letter, the first ב?
If you are about to die you can break any of the 613 mitzvot except for 3 which are:
Idle worship
Killing someone innocent
Or adultery
The first letter is א
You needed to donate some of those apples that fell to the floor
bsfr 😭
He doesn't have a mishkan to do that in so it is forgiven.
There aren't any other ppl tho
@Gilly2020 There are villagers, they need tzedakah
Only if he's in Israel
I have an idea to make "Minecraft but I can't break the laws of Buddhism."
1. Completely, utterly pacifistic. You. Can't. Kill. Anything. Can't even make them suffer. So no honey from bees nests, no taking villager crops to the point they would starve, no trapping anything directly, etc.
2. No intoxicants or anything that alters your character. No potions, no spider eyes, no enchanted grapples, nothing.
3. Absolutely no stealing or taking anything not caused by your direct effort.
4. Must show compassion to all beings. If an animal is trapped, you must free it. If a villager does not have a house anymore, you must build one.
And to make sure you're following the Eightfold Path...
1. Right View: You must always consider the consequence of Every. Single. Action.
2. Right Intention: No raging, surviving purely of the absolute bare minimum you have to
3. Right Speech: Must always narrarate with kindness and honesty. No negative speech.
4. Right Action: Along with the rules above the Eightfold Path, you can't needlessly destroy the environment.
5. Right Livelihood: Live in a minimal hut with minimal belongings. No trading from villagers
6. Right Effort: Must always play calmly and mindfully. No rushing or exploitation. Must take time to let go of any frustration
7. Right Mindfulness: Must comment on all actions/feelings happening around them or to the player/GuyBord0 himself
8. Right concentration: Any major event (spawning, sleeping, waking up, building your shelter, building a portal, building your farm, dying, etc) must be proceeded (or succeeded if it happens to you) by 30 minutes of meditation (so be still and crouched. This can be done even more accurately facing a black wall to replicate eyes being closed.)
That should cover the basics of it! I'd love to see you try! In essence, it's basically a pacifistic ironman run with some extra rules here and there.
As a buddhist
1. Can be bypassed if its life or death (can only kill hostile mobs, but only if you are cornered)
4. You also have to rescue any mob that are under threat of being killed (villager chased by zombie, chicken chased by fox)
Now for the 8fold path
2. No idle speech (lol)
5. You can trade, but only for necessities and no trading in weapons, living beings, meat, liquor, or poisons
7. never be absent minded, being conscious of what one is doing; this encourages the awareness of the impermanence of body, feeling and mind,
8. There is no official statement on how long meditation should be
@tofferooni4972Hello from a fledgling Seon!
1. This is true, actually. I would say, however, killing the mob isn't a good idea if it is no longer an obstacle. So once you are no longer cornered, you are not allowed to keep striking the mob.
------
5. Technically true, but how quickly you can secure basic resources, trading can become lobha/tanha extremely quickly. It's best to be avoided.
8. True, but 30 minutes (in Minecraft time 15 seconds) is enough to make it a challenging impact. Otherwise they can just crouch still for three seconds and that is it.
Thank you for refining this list!
So, just a thought, could he just retry after dying through reincarnation? Because it's in the nature of reality that lots of 'runs' fail at achieving enlightenment and get thrown back into the cycle of life again
@ancientgamer694the thing with reincarnation is you lose evrrything, so its as good as a hardcore run.
@ancientgamer694 Not EVERY Buddhist believes in literal reincarnation as well as what @tofferooni4972 states. A lot of Zen Buddhists (like myself) see it as a more metaphysical concept highlighting the impermanence of the self. You "reincarnate" by walking through every door literal and figurative, and maybe when your atoms become other things when your current form ceases, and your conceptual self via what people think of you living on through their thoughts, to put it heuristically.
I've wondered if I can eat bread in Minecraft during Passover
While hilarious, I want to add a few tidbits regarding the laws of Judaism.
Judaism has a princepal that not many people outside of it know of, that essentially decrees that should it be nescesary, you may ignore certain obligations. The most note-worth scenario is one where danger to your life is imminent, also known as a life/death scenario. Because of this law and the nature of survival mode, not only would you be allowed to hold off on the grace after meals untill you are in a position where it is comfortable for you to do so, but you would also be allowed to ignore any and all Kashrut laws when at low health.
Also, building a tabernacle without approval from the proper rabbinic authority is akin to heresy, so instead we just use a synagogue nowadays.
Wouldnt it be ok to build the tabernacle since there is no proper rabbinic authority in minecraft?
@flydrop8822By that logic, it wouldn't be the tabernacle, now would it?
@loudnoises1913 Perhaps. In an instance where you can;t find any Rabbinic authority, you are your own rabbi.
4:17 murder is killing without any good reason, just pure spite, the Bible actually commands to kill criminals.
But only by a beit din (court), and only in *incredibly* specific circumstances. The Talmud actually says that a beit din that killed one person in seventy years was considered cruel
@HarveySmith-x4b This is regarding killing a criminal with witnesses that is deserving of death. But if one can save someone's life by killing the murderer before the murder, then you are commanded to do so
It dosent
@dWSCdWSCyes, that is 💯 correct.
Not true. The only case you can kill someone is to stop him killing someone else. The only people allowed to execute is a Beit Din. Also, even they will hardly ever give a death sentence
7:17 in the sabbet you are not allowed to touch anything that is considers a "mokzhe'' which means any thing that is used for work or makimg the forbiden tasks(melachot), which includes work tool such as a shovel, this makes this run, certificate not kosher!
And his is playing Minecraft on the sabbath, I don’t think you can do that…
17:02 "duuuudddeee bensons gonna be pisssssed"
Do Buddhism and Hinduism next.
It's already been done by people copying his content.
@rayanchenafa8346it’s still best when he does it
@rayanchenafa8346 he should do it himself
I don't know how Buddhism would be possible. I can't think of any exception that would make killing blazes okay
@shreknskrubgaming7248 also isn't Buddhism incredibly diverse,from so many rules to no rules at all though?
I came immediately in both ways
I wish I was both ways
Excuse me?
What do you mean? 🤨
Glub Glub...?
Well what
Ender dragon is a verified Amalek
XD
LOL
Best comment here lmao
😂
failed run, you didn't attack or blow up any villages with tnt
The Five vows of Jainism could be a fun challenge run, it's a little known pacifist religion from India, in which members often use a broom to swipe the floor where they stand to not kill microscopic insect by mistake
11:58 what a blue collar sponge song you ve got there
You failed at 1:05 by not censoring God in the category's title
it's not the word god it's his name that shell be censored😂😂😂 god yalll are really danse
@Greenflextiger Except he censors it in the actual rule, so by his standards, it is violating the rule
@vaultechwithsoup6569the run didn’t even start chillax twin
@YellowBirb-ms6mm He censored it, in the actual rules, which to me means it mattered then.
WRONG
He isn't spelling it with full caps so its fine
11:14 They got Rouxls Kaard building the tabernacle
"Oh my Gosh" 16:45
"gosh" is not the Lords name saying it is fine
Gosh is literally a substitute for the word God
@MaccaOJ same thing?
@TheBlueProot Do they sound the same to you?
@TheBlueProotnah its like when he said Freaking instead of F'cking because it's forbidden to swear
15:24 thats not true, its only 2 specific fabrics thay cant be worn if they are sown together, you can wear other fabrics at the same time
He probably did it to make it more challenging
@lamola4414 that would make sense
