Short correction at 2:55, you say that Torah scrolls contain the entire Hebrew Bible, which is not true. The Torah is only essentially 1/3 of the Hebrew Bible, with the other parts being the Neviim and Ketubim, the Prophets and Writings. The whole collection, what could be called the Hebrew Bible, is the Tanakh. Other than that, amazing video!
Glad someone else noticed, I came down to the comments for this... Also at 7:56 they said that the temple stood "Where the Al-aqsa Mosque is today" When they mean the dome of the Rock, the (Very pretty) shrine which might be considered part of the complex but not the Mosque. Basic schoolboy stuff we learned in a secular school at the ages of 11-13, but I doubt the highly educated people at Business Insider care.

This was such an interesting video to watch. Tefillin have always held a kind of curious fascination for me. And I find it so beautiful that the Jewish tradition considers the color black to have ties to the Divine, that he/she exists in the universe as a complete whole and is not separate or divided from anything. Which means that the Divine is not separate from us as humans, or from anything natural in this world as the color is found everywhere in nature. That is beautiful.

15:46 "It's now almost completely Jewish after its Palestinian population fled or were driven from their homes" Wow, great use of passive voice to play down how this town was ethnically cleansed due to the aforementioned "population shifts" and "war" the video mentions just prior to this timestamp. This is a sickening affirmation of settler-colonialism and is doing more harm by sanitizing the reality.
I am a 10th gen decendant of jews that lived in this city of Tzfat. It was always a jewish city long befor the term Palastinian was invented. As a matter of fact the arabs that lived near by used to do pogroms of the jewish people living there for hundrets of years. Educate your self befor comenting nonsense.
Who spoke up when in the 1929 Hebron massacre, 70 Jews were killed and the whole city ethnically cleansed? In 1947, the Palestinians and 6 Arab armies started a 9 month war. The Palestinians were told to flee by the Arab armies, who expected to ethnically cleanse Safed. The Arabs and the Palestinians lost, so we are here.
when they say the methods are the same as they were 3300 years ago, they mean the scribes & the method they use to write (that specific "font" so to speak), the materials used (the animal skin) etc. Nothing to do with the modern machinery.
The method is the same. You can achieve it by fanning over it, using gravel dust, hammers, old saws and sanding files. The difference here is the speed, not the method
I don't know why they keep going on about current events, but I like the parts of the video that aren't obsessed with that (which is what, like 40% of it?)

On no level is that stolen land . It’s the ancient Jewish heartland . And most of Judea and Samaria which has Jewish towns and villages is on land purchased over the space of a hundred years from Arab landowners . When Jordan took the land between 1948 and 1967 they simple appropriated that Jewish land . So both historically and modern legality it’s Jewish land . The Arab claims are based on fabrications and falsehoods which you’ve bought completely.
Tefillin was definitely always a daily practice for Jews for at least 3336 years and it definitely didn’t start in Maccabee times. It wasn’t for the most religious sects, until 1860, Judaism was a monolithic faith. It was Orthodox Judaism and that’s it for over 3000 years

So we’re using the israeli genocidal war to showcase the religious objects used by their troops before going into battle? That’s…so tone deaf at best…. I’m all for learning about the cultures and religions of other cultures. But to use the war in gaza as a reason to make this is just. Not good.
Israel has spent he last 80 years being attacked by everyone around them. Hamas is a terrorist group that uses children as shields. Does that make the extent that Israel is going to right? No, however, there is a reason no-one wants Palestinian refugees. I would like for the war to stop, however terrorists rarely listen to reason, and barely listen to overwhelming force.
What an amazing tradition. It is a shame that the Israeli state has slipped into imperialism and genocide, so much so, that countries like the US need to air drop food and basic supplies to a cornered population which homes were robbed from them. I hope the Jewish traditions can survive in a more peaceful framework than that.
The history of Israel and Zionism is complex. There could have been a peaceful birth, where immigrating Jews and the native Palestinians (which consisted also of Jews and Christians, not just Muslims) could co-exist in peace. However, with how modern Israel ended up being formed, there has been violence against Palestinians since day 1.

Love how islaphobes show their ignorance.

The majority of the Medinah population willingly converted and offered refuge to the Prophet along with all his followers who immigrated to flee persecution. Later on, the prophet held a peace treaty between the Muslim population of Medinah and Mecca, the pact that was broken by Mecca and as the prophet marched to it (Mecca" to exact justice for the broken peace), the people of Mecca, the ones that used to persecute him and his followers, surrendered with no fight and against all expectations, the prophet gave a public pardon for everyone.....so no, I wanted to say "nice try", but it is half-assed really and besides, I was addressing the ongoing genocide in Gaza and how it is tone-deaf to be showcasing Israelis who are currently implicated in war crimes @@urbanarmory

And I find it so beautiful that the Jewish tradition considers the color black to have ties to the Divine, that he/she exists in the universe as a complete whole and is not separate or divided from anything. Which means that the Divine is not separate from us as humans, or from anything natural in this world as the color is found everywhere in nature. That is beautiful.

Or many jews were forced by the european nobilities to perform banking tasks. The bankers desk were low and the banker had to pivit his torso to write in a cleaner way.
perhaps, though I think a more plausible origin is in the shulchan aruch text saying it's humble for a Jew to lower his head slightly as to not be too arrogant. Some nonjewish governments even forced Jews to lower their heads when nonjews walked by, usually the rule in Muslim lands when Muslims walk by.@@bigfrankfraser1391
15:46 "It's now almost completely Jewish after its Palestinian population fled or were driven from their homes"
Wow, great use of passive voice to play down how this town was ethnically cleansed due to the aforementioned "population shifts" and "war" the video mentions just prior to this timestamp. This is a sickening affirmation of settler-colonialism and is doing more harm by sanitizing the reality.
I am a 10th gen decendant of jews that lived in this city of Tzfat. It was always a jewish city long befor the term Palastinian was invented. As a matter of fact the arabs that lived near by used to do pogroms of the jewish people living there for hundrets of years. Educate your self befor comenting nonsense.
Speak English not gibbish
Who spoke up when in the 1929 Hebron massacre, 70 Jews were killed and the whole city ethnically cleansed?
In 1947, the Palestinians and 6 Arab armies started a 9 month war. The Palestinians were told to flee by the Arab armies, who expected to ethnically cleanse Safed. The Arabs and the Palestinians lost, so we are here.

6:01 so we’re just going to ignore the fact that this guy’s workshop is in an illegal settlement? And before anyone responds, I’m not Jewish, I’m not Muslim, I’m not even Christian. I have no horse in this race. I’m an atheist with familial ties to Mahayana Buddhism. I’m just pointing out how they glossed over the fact that his workshop is set up in land that is supposedly Palestinian.
On no level is that stolen land . It’s the ancient Jewish heartland . And most of Judea and Samaria which has Jewish towns and villages is on land purchased over the space of a hundred years from Arab landowners . When Jordan took the land between 1948 and 1967 they simple appropriated that Jewish land . So both historically and modern legality it’s Jewish land . The Arab claims are based on fabrications and falsehoods which you’ve bought completely.
Just ordered mine!!!
Nice!
Tefillin was definitely always a daily practice for Jews for at least 3336 years and it definitely didn’t start in Maccabee times. It wasn’t for the most religious sects, until 1860, Judaism was a monolithic faith. It was Orthodox Judaism and that’s it for over 3000 years

I agree and I’m sure so do the religious “Jews against Zionism”.
Israel has spent he last 80 years being attacked by everyone around them. Hamas is a terrorist group that uses children as shields. Does that make the extent that Israel is going to right? No, however, there is a reason no-one wants Palestinian refugees. I would like for the war to stop, however terrorists rarely listen to reason, and barely listen to overwhelming force.

@@J_wsh Palestinians had the right to self-determination, but they waived that right in favor of attacking Israel.

What an amazing tradition. It is a shame that the Israeli state has slipped into imperialism and genocide, so much so, that countries like the US need to air drop food and basic supplies to a cornered population which homes were robbed from them. I hope the Jewish traditions can survive in a more peaceful framework than that.
Zionism has nothing to do with Jewish traditions and customs. They are complete opposites to the teachings of Judaism.
The history of Israel and Zionism is complex. There could have been a peaceful birth, where immigrating Jews and the native Palestinians (which consisted also of Jews and Christians, not just Muslims) could co-exist in peace. However, with how modern Israel ended up being formed, there has been violence against Palestinians since day 1.

We are praying no more of our land will be stolen, we are the indigenous people to Israel, Gaza, Judea and Samaria and the Golan heights.
As for spilled blood we don't like killing people, but when you vote for a government who's constitution says (quietly removed in 2017 but they repeat it a lot in speeches)
"The last hour would not come unless the Muslims will fight against the Jews and the Muslims would kill them until the Jews would hide themselves behind a stone or a tree and a stone or a tree would say: Muslim, or the servant of Allah, there is a Jew behind me; come and kill him; but the tree Gharqad would not say, for it is the tree of the Jews"
And then decide to massacre innocent people completely unprovoked don't expect peace. Peace will only come when Muslims love their children more than they hate ours.
@@jeremytheimer7443Strawman argument, why would they want the last hour to come as soon as possible? It is said to be the worst of days, why call to it to come faster? Striving for peace comes before calling for the end of days.
Do also clarify on Amalak, would love to know more about it.
Also, Islamic states had been safe haven for Jews, especially Ottoman Palestine, what major event could have caused them to turn??
People are indigenous, but people can move and new people can settle, does not mean you have to push out the ones who came later. If that was the case, then immigration would be illegal worldwide, nobody owns the Earth.
Why do you only bring up Hamas's charter when the West Bank holds more people and is getting more and more illegally occupied, are they also calling for the killing of Israelis,that justifies the injustice they face at the hands of the IOF?
I'm not sure, but I don't think it's fair to judge the brutal conquest of Mecca and Medina at this point, and it really feels out of place for you to bring it up now...
Love how islaphobes show their ignorance. In particular, Mecca was the Prophet Muhammad home city that persecuted him and his followers as he was a Unitarian (calling for one God) while his community were polytheistic worshipping idols. The majority of the Medinah population willingly converted and offered refuge to the Prophet along with all his followers who immigrated to flee persecution. Later on, the prophet held a peace treaty between the Muslim population of Medinah and Mecca, the pact that was broken by Mecca and as the prophet marched to it (Mecca" to exact justice for the broken peace), the people of Mecca, the ones that used to persecute him and his followers, surrendered with no fight and against all expectations, the prophet gave a public pardon for everyone.....so no, I wanted to say "nice try", but it is half-assed really and besides, I was addressing the ongoing genocide in Gaza and how it is tone-deaf to be showcasing Israelis who are currently implicated in war crimes @@urbanarmory
