Rabbi singer has been such a blessing in my understanding of things. I have read the Torah and the Bible all the way through....from beginning to end. And then read the Torah again. I have to say that he has cleared up a number of things for me. I hope to learn much more from him.
@@ThefrenchFranz honestly I’ve tried getting his attention to answer these questions to no avail. I’ve commented on most of his videos, yet no response.
@@chuksrichard3598 Same for me, about two years ago. I commented several videos of his, pointing to what he deliberately misquoted or misinterpreted, explained the Christian understanding of the point, an never got an answer. Except from other readers, who faced the truth.
FYI, I was a Christian for 20 years and Sunday school teacher. The deeper I read the NT and try to practice it, the more problems I discovered in it. But I was steadfast, because that was the only way I knew. I came to the conclusion through my study and deep contemplating that the Jews must know more, and to thoroughly understand the NT, you have to ask the Jews for the missing pieces, otherwise Christianity will collapse on it self. That’s why I am glad that Rabbis are willing to share their knowledge on RUclips. And then I saw the true light and got answers to my years long questions.
@@stevenxiaofenghuang Well, what is sure is that Judaism doesn't answer anything, as there is no temple left to do the atonement. M. singer just cares to protect his Jewish culture, way of life, inner ring in society. He certainly doesn't care about truth, considering how he deliberately misquotes and misrepresents the Gospel. So, what problems did you find in the Christian faith?
You should study more and be more informed. There is no temple needed for atonement. What you need is to confess your sins directly to G-d. There are numerous problems in Christianity. E.g. the self-defeating doctrine of the trinity. If one doesn’t get the trinity doctrine right, one is not believing in the Christian god, but another god. But the trinity is ultimately a mystery, thus its content is un-understandable. But if one cannot understand which/what god to believe, one cannot be saved. You get it the point? To be clear! one cannot fall back on the excuse that it is a mystery and not contemplate further. If one is satisfied with the simple answer, I can assure that such a person is not a true Christian and not really saved, because one does not care in what god and in which Jesus he is believing in.
"A teaching from the study house of Elijah the prophet: I testify against myself heaven and earth, whether it be a man or a woman, whether it be a non-jew or a jew, whether it be a servant or a maid-servant, it is all solely according to their deeds that Divine Inspiration rests on them." Midrash Tanna DeBei Eliyahu.
In Orthodox Judaism there is the concept of guarding your eyes and to not get angry. Or controlling your anger as you said. The concept is that you can do all these things little by little. G-d gave us the mitzvot so we could do it.
In Reform Judaism there is the concept that you can decide what is meaningful and relevant to you. If you decide to eat bacon cheeseburgers and play golf on the Sabbath since you find the prohibitions no longer meaningful and relevant that is perfectly acceptable.
"Rabbi Meir would teach: From what verse is it derived that a non-jew who engages in Torah study is considered like a High Priest? It is derived from that which is stated: “You shall therefore keep My statutes and My ordinances, which if a man does he shall live by them” (Leviticus 18:5). It doesn't say "Which if Priests, Levites, and Israelites do they shall live by them", but rather: “A man,” which indicates all humans in general. You have therefore learned a source for our tradition that a non-jew who engages in Torah study is considered like a High Priest- And it was taught there in the context of this baraita [teaching], that this is with regards to a non-jew who engages in the study of their seven groupings of commandments". [Jewish commentary on the Talmud: It is a mitzva (positive commandment) for a non-jew to study the halakhot [laws] that pertain to the seven groupings of Noahide commandments, and when he does so he is highly regarded to the level of even a High Priest serving in the inner chambers of the Temple]. Sanhedrin page 59.

Midrash Tanna DeBei Eliyahu.
The authenticity of Moses is based on the public revelation at Sinai: God revealed Himself to the entire nation of Israel, at least three million people, and proclaimed before them the Ten Commandments. The entire Jewish people personally experienced that revelation, each individual in effect becoming a prophet, and each one verifying the experience of the other. With their own eyes they saw, and with their own ears they heard, as the Divine voice spoke to them, and also they heard God saying, "Moses, Moses, go tell them the following ..." They did not receive the occurrence of that event and accept it as some claim or tradition of an individual, but they experienced it themselves. That public revelation, therefore, authenticated the bona fide status of Moses as a prophet of God, and the Divine origin of the instructions he recorded in the Torah. That, and that alone, is the criterion for the belief in, and acceptance of, Moses and his teachings, as God said to him, "I will come unto you in a thick cloud that the people may hear when I speak with you and will also believe in you forever" (Exodus 19:9).
@hrvatskinoahid1048 A good and righteous man was Moses, no question a prophet indeed. The fattest grapes grow at the bottom of the vine. Like the one born in a manger who raised the dead, travelled on clouds, healed the sick, and taught with unprecedented wisdom and authority. The Word ( son is a metaphor) who put on flesh. The Super Gospel contains the original Aramaic texts about Jesus. He mother Mary who also was born of a divine conception of Anna who both her and Mary sat the water test (Kabbalah) were vindicated by the Rabbis of the Day who recorded the Aramaic texts found in the book mentioned above. Rebbe Yitzhak Kaduri was one of Israel's brightest Rabbis stated in a letter after his death that Yeshua HaMashiac is the truth. The way the truth and the life everlasting. Worship the father not me. Revelations 22:9 ✝️ Blessed is the Lord our God King of the universe Amen 🕊
The only true gospel is the gospel of John, even Paul is a false apostle. It's very simple, we need to keep the commandments of the most High and we also need the testimony of His son Yahshua according to the gospel of John and the book of revelation.
Rabbi Singer taught me so much. I never understood anti-semitism until I watched the Rabbi's video. If I hadn't met so many Jews in my life, I would have wondered about Jews in general.
Anti-semitism as defined by many becomes one of the most complicated concepts, very hard to understand. Even some verses from the Tanakh could look like... anti-semitism ! 🙂

I'm not Jewish, And I never knew TANAKH. In the past - I worshiped JESUS and the TRINITY, but after seeing you, I just understood the meaning of the God of Israel, And I understand that the nation of Israel is God's chosen people. because you have the duty to teach the TANAKH to the NATIONS of the world, I began to understand that the GOSPEL, THE TRINITY, Jesus is the CURSED teaching of the DEVIL - From the kingdom of GOG, they are nephilim spirits who have been CURSED. The Bible belonging to Christians/Catholics is FAKE which was taught by the VATICAN (father of the church) for 2000 years and has been repeated to become FAKE truth. TANAKH should be for the WORLD, And TEACHERS ONLY JEWISH blood are able to teach for the world, I believe in your teachings, 1000 percent I believe. And I believe the teachings of the Christian Bible, the TRINITY, and Jesus are the CURSED teachings. My WILL will come true - Arise and LIVE the power of the Spirit of TaNAKH which only the NATION OF ISRAEL has, live for the world, Ignite the FIRE of the glory of the creator Elohim, and burn the power of the GOSPEL and the CURSED JESUS.
Pinchas Lapide also described Jesus as an orthodox Jew, but sometimes he rather stretched it. Good explanation of the temptation/resistance issue! I never saw that point.
When I was a kid, I was taught that God changed his mind - that everything was fire and brimstone until Jesus arrived and told everyone to love people instead. I was presented with a schizoid God, whimsically making life difficult for people. The more I listen to Jewish wisdom, the more it makes sense -- I have Asperger's syndrome, I need consistency and logic, and Judaism seems to present this. Not sure I have the capacity to go through the conversion process - crap with languages and don't fancy the snip, lol - but I do have a lot of respect for my Jewish friends and what the religion represents. Again, thank you for your channel.
Paul claimed Abraham was chosen because of a verse that says Abraham believed in God's promise & it was considered righteousness (Genesis 15:6), ie: "faith alone". But the Creator Master of the Universe says He chose Abraham because he kept all of God's "Keepings, My commandments, My laws & My Torah's" Genesis 26:5, & God says that the Torah's laws were given to the Jews "for their own good, to be kept for all of time, and that THAT will be considered righteousness in His eyes" Deuteronomy 6:24&25. False prophet paul said the law is a curse (galations 3), but the Creator Master of the Universe warns (Deuteronomy 11:26-28) that the curse is straying from keeping His commandments, that the blessing is keeping the commandments, that "the curse" is worshipping a god "you have not known of" ie: any new theology ie: jesus/christianity. God Who foresees all, wrote for us that any "new", what nor we or our forefathers knew of (Deuteronomy 11 verses 26-28, Deuteronomy 13 verse 6, Jeremiah 44 verses 1-5), is the definition of idolatry and the epitome of "the curse". King David made the biggest psalm in all of psalms, psalm 119, to express his extreme love and obsession for the Torah and His commandments, that psalm alone will make pauls bones roll in its grave, same with Psalm 19:8-12 "The Torah of YYVH is PERFECT, it restores the soul...the commandments of YHVH are upright and gladden the heart, the commandments of God are pure and enlighten ones eyes...His commandments are all truth and correct, they are MORE PRECIOUS than gold and all riches and are sweeter than honey and drippings of the honeycomb, Your servant has been very careful to keep them, because in their observance is TREMENDOUS REWARD". The commandments sanctify the Jewish people "So that you remember & do all of My commandments so that you shall be holy to your God" Numbers 15:40. Christians are SEVERELY brainwashed by a false prophet and suffer because of total ignorance of hebrew scripture. Paul said the torah is too hard to keep and deceptively doesn't quote the end of the verse from Deuteronomy 30:14 which says "because the matter (the Torah spoken of in previous 2 verses) is very close to you, in your mouth and heart that YOU CAN KEEP IT" meaning, that it is not difficult, it is keepable, as orthodox jews (not the sinners and non observant jews) DELIGHT in keeping His commandments and have kept them for 2000 years despite nonstop persecution, yet paul DECEPTIVELY leaves that part out when quoting this verse (Romans 10:6-8) bc he was not honest, he was crooked, a wicked bitter con-artist who fought with everyone, got along with no one (but women), and took advantage of the fact that whoever he preached to didnt know hebrew nor scripture, and now a third of the world is guilty of cheating on God "have no other Gods."

@@bt-lt4os Verses 10 & 11 right there, shows that Paul thinks eventually everyone will bow down and worship Jesus as "Lord" and by "Lord" I think Paul means Ha'Shem. There are lots of Christians who think the two are one and the same. Which means God the Father is another god Paul wants people to worship. On the other hand the other Christians think God the Father and Ha'Shem are one and the same, meaning Paul wants people to worship another god named Jesus. This confusion is all the result of Paul telling some people one thing and other people another thing.
@@bt-lt4os Nice try. Daniel said "someone like unto a son of man" coming "with the clouds of heaven". 13 I saw in the night visions, And, behold, there came with the clouds of heaven One like unto a son of man, And he came even to the Ancient of days, And he was brought near before Him. 14 And there was given him dominion, And glory, and a kingdom, That all the peoples, nations, and languages Should serve him; His dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, And his kingdom that which shall not be destroyed. It doesn't sound like Jesus to me but rather some celestial Messiah.
Paul's point was that mankind is not capable of perfect righteousness of their own efforts, as "there is not a good man who always does what is righteous and never sins." If you also believe that anyone who breaks any of the commands is "guilty of breaking the whole law," you then find yourself in a situation where you can be guilty, but never righteous. The point of righteousness by faith is not that you struggle to keep the law and fail, but rather that you do good works because you love God and your neighbor. The problem a Jew has is that because the mitzvot are commanded, he can be obedient, but never loving toward God.
The Rich man episode in Mark 10:25 is about the first commandment: that is, money is an idol, it's a new god. Rich people worship it as a golden calf, forgetting that we all will die and turn into dust, whereas that golden calf will stay.
Comapring John 3:14 w/ 2Kings 18:1-5... Did God cause the author of John to say jesus is the copper serpent so that those who actually know hebrew scripture understand that just as the copper serpent was mistaken for idolatry, so was jesus? Ie: the "blessing" of Jeremiah 17:5. Is it just coincidence? Just as Hezekiah, a biological paternal descendant of David & the most righteous King there ever was (2kings18:5) crushed the copper serpent delusion, so too mashiach, a biological paternal descendant of David & the final davidic king, will crush the jesus delusion of xistianity.
@Raizel613 No you are mistaken. It is only the title given to him by St. John in Apocalypse who is a text that refrences and expands greatly upon Old Testament End Times prophecies.
@Raizel613 He is an individual who will play a major role in End Times. He leads a coalition of nations surrounding I-el that attacks, causing to it Jacob's Trouble until they are reduced to a Remnant who then are saved and redeemed by the Messiah coming with the clouds. The different titles refering to him in OT are: Gog from the Land of Magog, Prince of the North, Little Horn, the Assyrian etc.
@Raizel613 Read my second comment so that you understand it is a title by which St. John refrences an already existing figure with a clear role in the End Times.
@Raizel613 It is not. Do you read what I write or just repeat that like a mantra? The same individual in OT we find even in NT. Like St. Paul who calls him Man of Lawlessnes. Different name for the same man who is prophecised by OT and NT to do the same things.
Interesting: a Jewish man going to a Jewish podcast to ask New Testament questions to a Jewish rabbi. Now, it took over 10:38 minutes to the “rabbi” to bash and point to “contradictions” to say: that was a very good question. “Thank you for sharing that with me”
The reason Jesus said that those who commit adultery in their heart also sin" is to prevent us from being judgmental and to encourage us to repent from evil thoughts ASAP. There is no controversy therefore, but only wisdom behind Yeshua's statement. He is telling us: a. Do not be quick to judge others. b. Your secret thoughts can eventually lead to action. Therefore repent quickly and seek prayer.
Rabbi Tovia, in Christianity, it is exactly as you put it: even if someone feels lust in their heart but do not act on it obeying the commandment of God Almighty, it is not sin.
I think what he meant to say was that it is not just important to control you anger for example and by doing so, not committing an act of violence, but also understanding the roots of that emotion to eradicate it all together.. Because then you have a human that defeated that negative emotion entirely, and that is ultimately the greatest achievement..
Jesus is the promised Messiah. "Be it known unto you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, whom God raised from the dead, even by him doth this man stand here before you whole. This is the stone which was set at nought of you builders, which is become the head of the corner. Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved." Acts 4:10-12 (KJB)
You are aware the stone which is the chief corner stone is just quoting a much more ancient passage from the Torah? I don’t understand how you can think it’s an impressive thing to bring a New Testament passage as proof of Jesus’ messiahship. That’s the same as a Muslim bringing a Quran verse to prove Muhammad’s prophethood. Of course it says that it’s written by people who already believe the premise.
By this time this stuff should be old. The drama fantasy books called christian shouldn't be a challenge for people that don't have wrecked brains. To believe that stuff without brain injury means ignorance. 2000 years of rediculous fantasy drama shouldn't be a challenge for normal people. But thank you Rabbi. ❤ your work.
Jesus was raised a Jew, preached a decidedly unorthodox form of Judaism (I don't mean orthodox in the sense practicing Jews use the term), went to the cross a Jew. He thought Judaism was the only true religion. However. He did not think being a Jew was either necessary for salvation, or sufficient. Many pagans would be saved for their good deeds, many Jews would be damned (or more correctly, annihilated) for their lack of them. What religion you profess, what doctrines you espouse--meaningless to God. The story of the Sheep and the Goats tells us that he believed all God asks is what have you done for your fellow beings. It's amazing to me how few Christians, or Jews for that matter, recognize this about him, when he was hardly subtle about it. You will not be saved by your words, by what you pretend to believe. Your beliefs are expressed by your deeds alone. The sheep don't need him, they are already saved. The goats won't listen, they are too self-involved, there's nothing he can do for them. His message was meant only for those who have not yet made up their minds, who might be persuaded to mend their ways. This is not the practical basis for a religious institution--and the Kingdom he preached has not come, which I believe would have surprised and saddened him. So Christianity could not long continue to function on that basis. But Judaism, for all that he believed in it, was equally corrupt, often violent, and he certainly would not have been a Muslim, since it was based on military conquest from the start. But he would have seen the sheep in all faiths--and those who have none at all, but still insist on being kind,generous, selfless. And I see elements of this type of belief in Judaism--the ideas of Hillel the Elder. It was primarily from that form of Judaism that his ideas sprang. But Judaism is many things, as is Christianity, as is Islam, as are all religions. When you get a lot of people professing the same basic set of beliefs, their true nature will be revealed in how they try to practice them in daily life. Most of us are terrible at it. And this would not have surprised him at all. Many called. Few chosen. Jesus was a Jew. And it was Judaism that inspired him. But also, at times, disappointed him.
Hello friend. You might enjoy the original Aramaic texts about Jesus. You will be amazed by this apocryphal (secret) book transcribed by the Rabbis of the Day. Rebbe Yitzhak Kaduri knew the truth. Goodluck and God bless you my friend 🙏
@@REX-INRI-JESUS I'm sure such texts did exist in the earliest days of Christianity (though most early Christians were not very literate, as was true of most Jews as well--the earliest followers of Jesus were all raised Jewish and went on considering themselves Jewish. Once the work of converting pagans began, Greek was more useful, so that's why Paul, a Pharisee, used it. If someone claims to have found such, I'd be extremely skeptical--people fabricate texts all the time, today and in the past. Often these forgeries are quite convincing, but forgeries they remain. The Rabbi you mention seems to have predicted the Messiah would come--and said he'd met him. He died in 2006. Very tardy, this Messiah. I revere the teachings of Jesus--and the Jewish teachings that influenced him at the time. But it seems Messiah is always coming, and somehow never gets here. We better see to saving ourselves. Jesus clearly believed the way to do that was to treat every around you, regardless of faith, the way you would wish to be treated. Being Jewish woudld not in itself save you--neither would being pagan automatically consign you to Gehenna, where your soul would be destroyed. He believed the separation of the Sheep from the Goats was coming within the lifetimes of the people he spoke to. So much like Rabbi Kaduri, he was, shall we say, premature. I am a Lapsed Catholic, sir, and quite content with my religion. :)
The original Aramaic texts are now a shortened version called the Super Gospel. The encyclopaedia of lost and rejected scriptures by Joseph Lumpkin contains the whole volume. I have a playlist called Messiah. Hebrew, Aramaic, and Paleo Hebrew are used to prove Messiah. Over 180 proofs of irrefutable evidence. I have more evidence.
@@REX-INRI-JESUS I googled. Lumpkin claimed to have reconstructed lost sources for the four gospels. It's clear he does not have the background to do that--nor would he have the material. Lost means lost. The memoirs of Octavian were lost. You can't just recreate them by thinking about it. There are 'lost gospels (the gnostic gospels as they are sometimes called) that have been rediscovered. They are not in Aramaic. And they are from centuries after Jesus. Good evidence for how Christian thought was evoving, but not likely to reveal to us what Jesus really did and said. Lumpkin can publish any shit he likes, but I"m only interested in real scholarship. Which I am free to question--but why bother to question shit somebody made up to further his own ideas?
@christopherlyons5900 Ok, the Super Gospel is a compilation of the original Aramaic texts diligently translated into English over ten years of cross-referencing and confirming their authenticity. You'll be amazed at the information contained within. The problem many Rabbis have with the New Testament is the many languages they are translated into and errors being made. The important message is still conveyed, though. Btw the Super Gospel is just the Aramaic spoken in the day and recorded by Rabbis then. The Word of God who put on flesh. Yeshua HaMashiac 👑
The Jesus of the gospel narratives is a literary figure. His words are not his own but the author’s - spoken in a language not his own but rather that of his literary creator’s intended audience.
Paul was very misunderstood and never preached against Torah/law. He was always misunderstood because he spoke in mystery as an orthodox rabbi, and we don’t understand the history context. Even Peter talked about Paul’s words were confusing to people.
10:22 Excellent point, Rabbi Singer. To defeat the temptation, you have to have lust in your heart. That's the righteous person, not the one who didn't feel anything.
When Jimmy Carter was US president, he quoted from the New Testament while talking about lust in one's heart, during a Playboy magazine interview. And I felt like that made him sound like such a weak person, but I never truly understood why I felt that way. Now I understand. Thank you for clarifying, Rabbi. Shalom!
I always thought of Jesus's comments conveyed that we all are sinful, by nature, no one is able to avoid sinning. That's the whole point of Christianity. You don't have to be without sin or blame, you have Jesus. I'm interested in your points, but you have to grant the other side its norms and premises.
The teachings of Paul are about realizing that we as people will always come up short... Therefore we are not justified by our good works only but by grace. So that none of us may boast and become arrogant and selfrigteous because of our own righteousness but be justified by keeping the commandments and knowing that we are sustained by His grace.. As for the aldutery issue, Jesus was teaching his disciples to protect themselves by not even entertaining the thoughts of adultery because by doing so it will open you up to an even greater temptation by fantasizing about it.. If it is one thing it is an extra safeguard for your heart by not allowing it to enter your mind any further lest it may bear fruit and become an actual sin..
Do you know who thought Jeremiah was a Babylonian spy? Do you know what happened to Isaiah? Do you know what happened to Zechariah? The religious leaders persecuted them and accused them and it’s the same thing Tuvia singer is doing to Yeshua. Notice there are so many false messiahs but his focus has been on Yeshua, why? Because He is the true messiah.
Jesus isn't saying being tempted is sinful. If a pretty girl walks by I'll be tempted, anyone would, even Jesus was tempted, but am I dwelling on the thought? Am I running through scenarios in my head about how to make it happen, what would it would be like, what she looks like without those clothes? In other words, am I making it happen in my head because there are reasons I can't make it happen in reality (social norms, fear of rejection, fear of a divine punishment) or is my love for God and my trust in His Wisdom so great that I don't give the temptation room to fester? The latter demonstrates the heart God is seeking, as Moses says in Deuteronomy 6:5 "Love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength."
Tovia is like a god who does not change his mind, yet stuck in his ways with a hardened heart, leaving all that is spoken, left behind. There is no other name that is above all names... Yeshua was given a name, therefore, there is one higher than he, surley you know his name?
Magic 🎩: jesus was the Jewish messiah. @A false prophet and cult leader could have been non-Jewish because there wasn't any actual paperwork. No birth certificate from 2000 years ago...That player fulfilled no messiah prophecies. Magic 🎩: It doesn't matter that the letter "j" has been used instead of "y" because the letter "j" is just about 500 years old. @The king Messiah is supposed to have the name Dovid. Magic 🎩: People can commit any crime and say the Magic words: "I forgive you." @ If someone committed rape and / or murder and says: "You must forgive me, to be free"... That insanity is the church doctrine. Repentance is obviously better. But careless people that don't want to pay any punishment would say just speak peace and forgive. Blessed be The God of The Jewish Faith ✡️ Hashem
"2 Samuel 2: 4 Then the men of Judah came to David and anointed him king over the people of Judah". Notice it wasn't a random woman who anointed David king, that's not really how it worked.
Stay safe Rebbe. My curiosity about Christianity , from a Jewish perspective, is why does a religion that worships a man born of a Jewish mother, lived & died as a Jewish man, is not acknowledged as being Jewish??? Is this not Christian hypocrisy when they do not study the Old Testament? i am a Levite & live a life of service to my fellow human in the medical field. Happy Pesach Rebbe
We actually do study the Old Testament and keep the Commandments, we just know that’s not how you get to Heaven. If I could show you that Jesus rose from the dead; would you be open to looking into Yeshua?
I don't think the anger and lust in your heart is meant to be taken literally. It's hyperbole to identify the origin of these "sins" and to develop an early detection system, you might say.
People don't realize that cheese-its repeats the commandment of Deuteronomy 17:10-13 in matthew 23:2&3 “The teachers of the law and the Pharisees sit in the seat of Moses... So you must be careful to do practice and obey whatever they tell you" awkward.
@@charleswalter664 it is the will of God to be repelled by idolatry Deuteronomy 7:26, to uproot the names of idolatry Deuteronomy 12:3, Deuteronomy 7:5, and it is forbidden to say the name of idols on ones lips Exodus 23:13. Yup, cheese-its, the deeply greek zeus hercules pegasus polytheistic tall-tale theology of the christians.
I just want to point out that I know many Christians who Converted to Judaism and many of them say "I realized Jesus was Jewish and for me realizing Jesus was historical made me realize I need to pray to Hashem."
Not only is Jesus historical but represent the 'as above so below' principal by having the path of the actual crufiction embedded inside the cranium which makes the bodies of Jews and Judeo Christians the true temple of Gd not made by human hands. Yeshua's appearance was absolutely fabulously mystical. I get so excited because I know if you do not follow the cleansing rituals under the Jewish teaching as a child, you would never be able to see the point of YHWH. The Pagan influence in secular life was way too enchanting. Thank you for mentioning that Yeshua played an important role in our salvation.
@@ScenariosOfDrea Sadly, "HaShem" is not in the scripture... it is YHWH, given by the father himself to Moses, but that the Jews deliberately decided not to use. How sad! But besides: your don't expect the Messiah to be Jewish? Ben Yossef, Ben David, but not Jewish?
@@ThefrenchFranz Hashem means God, and YHWH is literally a tetagram of God's name. Sadly, you don't know this. I expect the Messiah to be Jewish, yes, but we don't have to worship that person at all; some feel the messiah is also a messianic age of peace.
Rabbi, I don’t always agree with you, but the insight you presented here is profound. If there is no distinction between “being tempted by” and “yielding to”, temptation, much moral ground is lost! And though at one level it’s a legitimate spiritual observation (I.e., something one might find in Buddhism of Gnostic writings) the way it’s presented does have the odor of a later a Pauline sales strategy. I also enjoyed your comment regarding Mark and Paul. If you get a chance, read “Operation Messiah” by historian of espionage in the ancient world Lt Col Rose Mary Sheldon. You’ll find it well researched and interesting, whether or not you accept all of the conclusions drawn.
It’s so important what the messiah said, if it is in your heart, then it’s just like committing the act. Why is this addendum so important? Because it show man the difference, not only between him and a perfect holy God, but, how much more that he/she needs his or depend upon him to provide redemption for us. Remember, there can be no…or sin can not even exist in the presence of our Holy God!
Jesus is a fictional character. Seriously? G_d comes to Earth as a virgin-born water-walking magician healer miracle worker? L. Ron Hubbard would blush.
The whole world has been our Bet Din for the sake of a Mystery/Godspell for about 2000 years. We 'know' that things press along towards JUDGMENT, but few have any idea of where to start. Rabbi Singer has been the most authentic in interpreting the fallacious justifications for JESUS, but it doesn't end there. The synoptics vary from JOHN, and the SPIRIT OF PROPHECY HAS NOT BEEN REGARDED by Theologians ! "WHAT JESUS SAYS". not what you think he did.
Reading Let’s get biblical (still on vol.1 ). It is mind blowing! ❤ Rabbi Tovia Singer So, generations of philosophers, Christians scholars and others … conflicted in the face of our commitment to Judaism, come up with interpretations of Torah that won’t challenge their own cultural, intellectual and religious pride. And corrupting and adulterating the text is the only way they found to wiggle themselves out of the rigorous requirement of Torah . They are afraid to take the plunge and immerse themselves in Torah. They are just visiting, I will think of them as Torah Tourists! Like my French family visiting for 2 weeks, (California) and purposely dismissing my inputs on whichever American oddity they perceive on the ground (and extraordinary feat of circular logic) that now that I am American I know LESS about America than 30 years ago when I came to America! Obviously whichever conclusion they bring back to France doesn’t really matter. Unfortunately, the corruption and adulteration of the biblical text is a weapon against Judaism and the Truth of Torah. So it is serious and it matters to know that it is happening. Thank you Teacher ❤ ❤Much love here for my people in Israel 🇮🇱 Praying for your safety in the shadow of His wings. 🇮🇱
We are not to rely on anyone else to provide explanations of any part of Torah, whether for Jews or Gentiles, aside from accepted Jewish Torah scholars.
There is another interpretation that is valid. There is a famous saying, idk who said it, but when Messiah comes, he would even interpret the spaces between the letters. Yeshua's halakha teaches the torot are not merely for the outside demonstration but should also reflect inwardly. The sermon on the mount demonstrates these mitzvot are to be adhered to both inwardly with attitudes of the heart and outwardly with our expressions and actions. He said many other sayings that talk about this specific issue because the Prushims halakha deals only with the external and it's obvious. Tovia makes it sound foreign but it's a simple teaching unless one is wrapped up so tightly in the rules of the rabbis one can't see how simple and eloquent it actually is. Jesus is saying you can't just look the part. The commandments of God are spiritual and require a soft heart and consideration for the inward person even moreso than the external demonstration.
I totally agree. Paul & the others didn't get along. It can be easy to accept his teachings when that's all there is to read, but to say they are from HaShem might be a stretch.
As an amateur Counter Missionary myself, I think that it's silly to not reclaim the fact that, like Rabbi Federow points out in his Learn Hebrew In An Hour Class, that TITTLE means the LAW. (In choich, they never tell ya!) Let's RECLAIM the Law (LOVE) from Paul. (X-tians are so confused.) Let's agree, when they watch the Mormon produced "Chosen": YES, the jesus CHARACTER was JEWISH! So turn to JUDAISM! Not the Orthodox Jewish Bible ( Messianic-Christian). Let's Take Back The Narrative!
There is no common ground!!! That myth sounds good and reads well, but it is the foundation of all the wars and conflicts of recorded history!!! People have all kinds of conflicting beliefs that cause all kinds of conscious and unconscious emotional discomfort. 😇
@@andrewmays3988 I miscommunicated. In terms of taking the Hijacked Jewish Bible back, X-tians want to say that jesus is Jewish, do why don't you want to follow him... I'm saying, if he was Jewish, then follow JUDAISM. I mean common ground in terms of using the NT to Defend Judaism. I'm not for Christian and Jewish Fellowships. I think Ben is making a terrible mistake. I looked at their board. The only goal of a Missionary is to Convert Jews by "being nice".
Jesus continues the conversation with that Jewish man and says you should sell everything and follow Him. Remember Jesus came for the Jews and questioned the oral traditions of Rabbis. Jesus being who He is taught us a way to exceed the righteousness of the Pharasees. Paul on the other hand came for Gentiles. Even Jews agree that Gentiles are not obliged to keep the law..
I doubt he was talking about people being tempted, he was tempted too during the 40day fast. I think it's about people who entertain and fantasize sin, can't act on it maybe because they are scared or fear judgment, yet feel like they are not a sinner compared to someone who acted on it.
Jesus wasn’t a Christian he never taught anything christianity teaches stay true and blessed my beloved Judaism ✡️ family stand strong OUR GOD IS ONE ☝️
The only credit I give this rabbi is that he has read the New Testament out of fear that his fellow Jews will accept Him as their Messiah. To use his own idea, if I put this guy and Jesus in a room together, I know whom I would follow: Jesus the Messiah, not Tovia, the Jewish hair-splitter.
The fact that you are so focused on trying to refute the Messiah is a good sign that Yeshua is the Messiah. Yeshua is the promised Messiah, He is the God of Israel who came in the flesh. He laid His life down as an atonement and after three days he conquered death, sin and Satan. He is giving time to His enemies to repent and be saved. As David said: “ the Lord said to my Lord, sit at My right hand until I make your enemies your footstool.”. Psalm 110.
This question was asked to jesus, then to paul, now to tovia with an intrest to see what comments will arise. If you couldnt understand what paul or jesus said, how will you understand what tovia or the comments say?
But the line of looking at a woman with lust being equivalent to adultery IS quite similar to Orthodox Judaism, which requires women to dress modestly or it will tempt men. They see visual temptations as a slippery slope in that direction. I don’t understand why you would say that line in the New Testament is fully inconsistent with Orthodox Judaism. It seems to recognize the same continuity.
100% agreed. They draw a person in thru the little bits of Torah Truth, but then twist it, add to it, make it evolve into forsaking God & Torah & worshipping images (Jesus, sun-god, etc). By then we're caught & trapped by the experiences, visitations, clever arguments, etc.
Jesus taught a standard of purity that would lead people to self realization. If a man isn't strong enough to not look at a woman without lusting than he is weak and not very spiritual. Yes that's Shiva.
The monomyth is a story of a heroes journey, which is a transitional story. The Gospels are tales of the transition of the Jews from them having a nation and temple to a people without out a physical nation or a temple. Matthew I believe is a fictional story that uses the character of Jesus as a metaphor for the character of Israel during the first century messianic movement period, into the First Jewish-Roman War through the survival of the Jewish people and the faith through Rabbinic Judaism.
@@catrol5899 not anymore, however... Hosea 6:6; Matthew 9:13; Matthew 12:7... The crucifixion, in part, represents the end of sacramental atonement (Matthew 5:17)... 🤔
I believe Jesus was reiterating Job 31 and Leviticus 19:16-18. Even in Psalm 45, handsomeness and beauty are admired. However, we all know when we take it too far in our minds and hearts and play out a scenario with another person or image. Yet only God can really know or reveal if that person has crossed a line like in Ecclesiastes 12:13-14. Shalom!
I noticed from reading the Bible that Jesus was never quoted as saying anything as criticism against animal sacrices, and nothing supporting punishments of death for violating the law of Moses. One interesting hint is that none of the New Testament books after Matthew, Mark, Luke, mention anything that can even with theological gymnastics be understood as prophecy about the 70AD destruction in Jerusalem. That is odd. I have my speculations that those specific passages were added to the gospels after the fact for dishonest reasons.
"After all things have been comprehended, the conclusion of it all is: it is God that you should revere & His commandments that you should keep, for this is the purpose of man, because for every single deed, God will bring to account/to judgement, for every hidden thing, whether good or bad". Ecclesiastes 12:13&14.

@user-uo6pc3pi1i This Rabbi just wants to bury Jesus . He leaves you with nothing. Christ is king. All will bow
FYI, I was a Christian for 20 years and Sunday school teacher. The deeper I read the NT and try to practice it, the more problems I discovered in it. But I was steadfast, because that was the only way I knew. I came to the conclusion through my study and deep contemplating that the Jews must know more, and to thoroughly understand the NT, you have to ask the Jews for the missing pieces, otherwise Christianity will collapse on it self. That’s why I am glad that Rabbis are willing to share their knowledge on RUclips. And then I saw the true light and got answers to my years long questions.
@@stevenxiaofenghuang Well, what is sure is that Judaism doesn't answer anything, as there is no temple left to do the atonement. M. singer just cares to protect his Jewish culture, way of life, inner ring in society. He certainly doesn't care about truth, considering how he deliberately misquotes and misrepresents the Gospel.
So, what problems did you find in the Christian faith?
You should study more and be more informed. There is no temple needed for atonement. What you need is to confess your sins directly to G-d.
There are numerous problems in Christianity. E.g. the self-defeating doctrine of the trinity. If one doesn’t get the trinity doctrine right, one is not believing in the Christian god, but another god. But the trinity is ultimately a mystery, thus its content is un-understandable. But if one cannot understand which/what god to believe, one cannot be saved. You get it the point?
To be clear! one cannot fall back on the excuse that it is a mystery and not contemplate further. If one is satisfied with the simple answer, I can assure that such a person is not a true Christian and not really saved, because one does not care in what god and in which Jesus he is believing in.
"A teaching from the study house of Elijah the prophet: I testify against myself heaven and earth, whether it be a man or a woman, whether it be a non-jew or a jew, whether it be a servant or a maid-servant, it is all solely according to their deeds that Divine Inspiration rests on them." Midrash Tanna DeBei Eliyahu.
In Orthodox Judaism there is the concept of guarding your eyes and to not get angry. Or controlling your anger as you said. The concept is that you can do all these things little by little. G-d gave us the mitzvot so we could do it.
In Reform Judaism there is the concept that you can decide what is meaningful and relevant to you. If you decide to eat bacon cheeseburgers and play golf on the Sabbath since you find the prohibitions no longer meaningful and relevant that is perfectly acceptable.
Reform Judaism gives you the best of both worlds. You can be a Jew and live like a Christian but without Jesus.
If Reform Judaism had existed in the time of Jesus, the pagan world would have converted to Judaism and Christianity would never have been invented.
So in other words in Reform Judaism the Judaism is optional?
@@stephenfisher3721
Which is why reform Judaism is not accepted by Jews including converts who convert through reform for example...
"Rabbi Meir would teach: From what verse is it derived that a non-jew who engages in Torah study is considered like a High Priest? It is derived from that which is stated: “You shall therefore keep My statutes and My ordinances, which if a man does he shall live by them” (Leviticus 18:5). It doesn't say "Which if Priests, Levites, and Israelites do they shall live by them", but rather: “A man,” which indicates all humans in general. You have therefore learned a source for our tradition that a non-jew who engages in Torah study is considered like a High Priest- And it was taught there in the context of this baraita [teaching], that this is with regards to a non-jew who engages in the study of their seven groupings of commandments". [Jewish commentary on the Talmud: It is a mitzva (positive commandment) for a non-jew to study the halakhot [laws] that pertain to the seven groupings of Noahide commandments, and when he does so he is highly regarded to the level of even a High Priest serving in the inner chambers of the Temple]. Sanhedrin page 59.

You're absolutely correct Tovia Singer. It's heartbreaking the torment of our striving. Thank you so much for this clarity. We are all better for it.
As a profoundly atheist person, I yet never fail to be fascinated by Rabbi Tovia Singer's theological answers.
The authenticity of Moses is based on the public revelation at Sinai: God revealed Himself to the entire nation of Israel, at least three million people, and proclaimed before them the Ten Commandments. The entire Jewish people personally experienced that revelation, each individual in effect becoming a prophet, and each one verifying the experience of the other. With their own eyes they saw, and with their own ears they heard, as the Divine voice spoke to them, and also they heard God saying, "Moses, Moses, go tell them the following ..." They did not receive the occurrence of that event and accept it as some claim or tradition of an individual, but they experienced it themselves. That public revelation, therefore, authenticated the bona fide status of Moses as a prophet of God, and the Divine origin of the instructions he recorded in the Torah. That, and that alone, is the criterion for the belief in, and acceptance of, Moses and his teachings, as God said to him, "I will come unto you in a thick cloud that the people may hear when I speak with you and will also believe in you forever" (Exodus 19:9).
@hrvatskinoahid1048
A good and righteous man was Moses, no question a prophet indeed. The fattest grapes grow at the bottom of the vine. Like the one born in a manger who raised the dead, travelled on clouds, healed the sick, and taught with unprecedented wisdom and authority. The Word ( son is a metaphor) who put on flesh.
The Super Gospel contains the original Aramaic texts about Jesus. He mother Mary who also was born of a divine conception of Anna who both her and Mary sat the water test (Kabbalah) were vindicated by the Rabbis of the Day who recorded the Aramaic texts found in the book mentioned above.

In the past - I worshiped JESUS and the TRINITY,
but after seeing you, I just understood the meaning of the God of Israel,
And I understand that the nation of Israel is God's chosen people.
because you have the duty to teach the TANAKH to the NATIONS of the world,
I began to understand that the GOSPEL, THE TRINITY, Jesus is the CURSED teaching of the DEVIL - From the kingdom of GOG,
they are nephilim spirits who have been CURSED.
The Bible belonging to Christians/Catholics is FAKE which was taught by the VATICAN (father of the church) for 2000 years and has been repeated to become FAKE truth.
TANAKH should be for the WORLD, And TEACHERS ONLY JEWISH blood are able to teach for the world,
I believe in your teachings, 1000 percent I believe.
And I believe the teachings of the Christian Bible, the TRINITY, and Jesus are the CURSED teachings.

Ignite the FIRE of the glory of the creator Elohim, and burn the power of the GOSPEL and the CURSED JESUS.
Non-Jews need to keep the 7 Noahide laws. Good luck.

The more I listen to Jewish wisdom, the more it makes sense -- I have Asperger's syndrome, I need consistency and logic, and Judaism seems to present this.
Not sure I have the capacity to go through the conversion process - crap with languages and don't fancy the snip, lol - but I do have a lot of respect for my Jewish friends and what the religion represents.

Gentiles have to keep the 7 Noahide laws only.

Paul claimed Abraham was chosen because of a verse that says Abraham believed in God's promise & it was considered righteousness (Genesis 15:6), ie: "faith alone". But the Creator Master of the Universe says He chose Abraham because he kept all of God's "Keepings, My commandments, My laws & My Torah's" Genesis 26:5, & God says that the Torah's laws were given to the Jews "for their own good, to be kept for all of time, and that THAT will be considered righteousness in His eyes" Deuteronomy 6:24&25. False prophet paul said the law is a curse (galations 3), but the Creator Master of the Universe warns (Deuteronomy 11:26-28) that the curse is straying from keeping His commandments, that the blessing is keeping the commandments, that "the curse" is worshipping a god "you have not known of" ie: any new theology ie: jesus/christianity. God Who foresees all, wrote for us that any "new", what nor we or our forefathers knew of (Deuteronomy 11 verses 26-28, Deuteronomy 13 verse 6, Jeremiah 44 verses 1-5), is the definition of idolatry and the epitome of "the curse". King David made the biggest psalm in all of psalms, psalm 119, to express his extreme love and obsession for the Torah and His commandments, that psalm alone will make pauls bones roll in its grave, same with Psalm 19:8-12 "The Torah of YYVH is PERFECT, it restores the soul...the commandments of YHVH are upright and gladden the heart, the commandments of God are pure and enlighten ones eyes...His commandments are all truth and correct, they are MORE PRECIOUS than gold and all riches and are sweeter than honey and drippings of the honeycomb, Your servant has been very careful to keep them, because in their observance is TREMENDOUS REWARD". The commandments sanctify the Jewish people "So that you remember & do all of My commandments so that you shall be holy to your God" Numbers 15:40. Christians are SEVERELY brainwashed by a false prophet and suffer because of total ignorance of hebrew scripture. Paul said the torah is too hard to keep and deceptively doesn't quote the end of the verse from Deuteronomy 30:14 which says "because the matter (the Torah spoken of in previous 2 verses) is very close to you, in your mouth and heart that YOU CAN KEEP IT" meaning, that it is not difficult, it is keepable, as orthodox jews (not the sinners and non observant jews) DELIGHT in keeping His commandments and have kept them for 2000 years despite nonstop persecution, yet paul DECEPTIVELY leaves that part out when quoting this verse (Romans 10:6-8) bc he was not honest, he was crooked, a wicked bitter con-artist who fought with everyone, got along with no one (but women), and took advantage of the fact that whoever he preached to didnt know hebrew nor scripture, and now a third of the world is guilty of cheating on God "have no other Gods."

PLEASE buy a Hebrew Bible (says "Stone Edition TANACH" on the cover), and Rabbi Singer's books, as well as Rabbi Stuart Federow's book "Judaism and Christianity: A Contrast", to help you understand why Christianity absolutely did NOT come from God.
@@bt-lt4os Verses 10 & 11 right there, shows that Paul thinks eventually everyone will bow down and worship Jesus as "Lord" and by "Lord" I think Paul means Ha'Shem. There are lots of Christians who think the two are one and the same. Which means God the Father is another god Paul wants people to worship. On the other hand the other Christians think God the Father and Ha'Shem are one and the same, meaning Paul wants people to worship another god named Jesus.
This confusion is all the result of Paul telling some people one thing and other people another thing.
@@bt-lt4os Nice try. Daniel said "someone like unto a son of man" coming "with the clouds of heaven".
13 I saw in the night visions,
And, behold, there came with the clouds of heaven
One like unto a son of man,
And he came even to the Ancient of days,
And he was brought near before Him.
14 And there was given him dominion,
And glory, and a kingdom,
That all the peoples, nations, and languages
Should serve him;
His dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away,
And his kingdom that which shall not be destroyed.
It doesn't sound like Jesus to me but rather some celestial Messiah.
Paul's point was that mankind is not capable of perfect righteousness of their own efforts, as "there is not a good man who always does what is righteous and never sins." If you also believe that anyone who breaks any of the commands is "guilty of breaking the whole law," you then find yourself in a situation where you can be guilty, but never righteous. The point of righteousness by faith is not that you struggle to keep the law and fail, but rather that you do good works because you love God and your neighbor. The problem a Jew has is that because the mitzvot are commanded, he can be obedient, but never loving toward God.
I am watching a very well done documentary about the Assirians. Really puts things in the Bible into context.
Rabbi: you know more about the New Testament than the Pope!😀 all my life I have seen these problems with the Christian narrative. Dr Raymond Havlicek
The Rich man episode in Mark 10:25 is about the first commandment: that is, money is an idol, it's a new god. Rich people worship it as a golden calf, forgetting that we all will die and turn into dust, whereas that golden calf will stay.
Thank you a wonderful explanation of a question I have wondered about.
Comapring John 3:14 w/ 2Kings 18:1-5... Did God cause the author of John to say jesus is the copper serpent so that those who actually know hebrew scripture understand that just as the copper serpent was mistaken for idolatry, so was jesus? Ie: the "blessing" of Jeremiah 17:5. Is it just coincidence? Just as Hezekiah, a biological paternal descendant of David & the most righteous King there ever was (2kings18:5) crushed the copper serpent delusion, so too mashiach, a biological paternal descendant of David & the final davidic king, will crush the jesus delusion of xistianity.
@Raizel613There is but he is described by different titles. You should read the End Times prophecies in total even in the Old Testament.?
@Raizel613 No you are mistaken. It is only the title given to him by St. John in Apocalypse who is a text that refrences and expands greatly upon Old Testament End Times prophecies.
@Raizel613 He is an individual who will play a major role in End Times. He leads a coalition of nations surrounding I-el that attacks, causing to it Jacob's Trouble until they are reduced to a Remnant who then are saved and redeemed by the Messiah coming with the clouds. The different titles refering to him in OT are: Gog from the Land of Magog, Prince of the North, Little Horn, the Assyrian etc.
@Raizel613 Read my second comment so that you understand it is a title by which St. John refrences an already existing figure with a clear role in the End Times.
@Raizel613 It is not. Do you read what I write or just repeat that like a mantra? The same individual in OT we find even in NT. Like St. Paul who calls him Man of Lawlessnes. Different name for the same man who is prophecised by OT and NT to do the same things.
How can I contact you, please?
Beautiful teaching , thanks ❤
As a Jew far from Tanahk, whose never read the new testament, but grew up in America, this is really interesting. Thank you.
Interesting: a Jewish man going to a Jewish podcast to ask New Testament questions to a Jewish rabbi. Now, it took over 10:38 minutes to the “rabbi” to bash and point to “contradictions” to say: that was a very good question. “Thank you for sharing that with me”
❤
The reason Jesus said that those who commit adultery in their heart also sin" is to prevent us from being judgmental and to encourage us to repent from evil thoughts ASAP.
There is no controversy therefore, but only wisdom behind Yeshua's statement. He is telling us:
a. Do not be quick to judge others.
b. Your secret thoughts can eventually lead to action. Therefore repent quickly and seek prayer.
You nailed it!
Thanks!
Thank you!
Thank you!
Rabbi Tovia, in Christianity, it is exactly as you put it: even if someone feels lust in their heart but do not act on it obeying the commandment of God Almighty, it is not sin.
The statement is designed to illustrate the spectrum of human imperfection or original sin...which is acknowledged by the forced exodus from Eden.
I think what he meant to say was that it is not just important to control you anger for example and by doing so, not committing an act of violence, but also understanding the roots of that emotion to eradicate it all together..
Because then you have a human that defeated that negative emotion entirely, and that is ultimately the greatest achievement..
Jesus is the promised Messiah. "Be it known unto you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, whom God raised from the dead, even by him doth this man stand here before you whole. This is the stone which was set at nought of you builders, which is become the head of the corner. Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved." Acts 4:10-12 (KJB)
You are aware the stone which is the chief corner stone is just quoting a much more ancient passage from the Torah? I don’t understand how you can think it’s an impressive thing to bring a New Testament passage as proof of Jesus’ messiahship. That’s the same as a Muslim bringing a Quran verse to prove Muhammad’s prophethood. Of course it says that it’s written by people who already believe the premise.
Exactly. You are brilliant Rabbi.
By this time this stuff should be old. The drama fantasy books called christian shouldn't be a challenge for people that don't have wrecked brains. To believe that stuff without brain injury means ignorance.
2000 years of rediculous fantasy drama shouldn't be a challenge for normal people.
But thank you Rabbi. ❤ your work.
Please what's the name of the song on your outro..... I can't get it out of my head
Adon Olam
Rabbi, could you use subtitles in Spanish for your videos, please? That'd help a lot in Latin America and Spain for people to understand the truth.
Such a good one - a hint of Paul in those gospel words - yes
Paul and Matthew alone in a room - only one would come out alive very true!
Jesus was raised a Jew, preached a decidedly unorthodox form of Judaism (I don't mean orthodox in the sense practicing Jews use the term), went to the cross a Jew. He thought Judaism was the only true religion.
However. He did not think being a Jew was either necessary for salvation, or sufficient. Many pagans would be saved for their good deeds, many Jews would be damned (or more correctly, annihilated) for their lack of them. What religion you profess, what doctrines you espouse--meaningless to God. The story of the Sheep and the Goats tells us that he believed all God asks is what have you done for your fellow beings.
It's amazing to me how few Christians, or Jews for that matter, recognize this about him, when he was hardly subtle about it. You will not be saved by your words, by what you pretend to believe. Your beliefs are expressed by your deeds alone.
The sheep don't need him, they are already saved. The goats won't listen, they are too self-involved, there's nothing he can do for them. His message was meant only for those who have not yet made up their minds, who might be persuaded to mend their ways.
This is not the practical basis for a religious institution--and the Kingdom he preached has not come, which I believe would have surprised and saddened him. So Christianity could not long continue to function on that basis.
But Judaism, for all that he believed in it, was equally corrupt, often violent, and he certainly would not have been a Muslim, since it was based on military conquest from the start.
But he would have seen the sheep in all faiths--and those who have none at all, but still insist on being kind,generous, selfless.
And I see elements of this type of belief in Judaism--the ideas of Hillel the Elder. It was primarily from that form of Judaism that his ideas sprang. But Judaism is many things, as is Christianity, as is Islam, as are all religions. When you get a lot of people professing the same basic set of beliefs, their true nature will be revealed in how they try to practice them in daily life.
Most of us are terrible at it. And this would not have surprised him at all. Many called. Few chosen.
Jesus was a Jew. And it was Judaism that inspired him.
But also, at times, disappointed him.
Hello friend. You might enjoy the original Aramaic texts about Jesus. You will be amazed by this apocryphal (secret) book transcribed by the Rabbis of the Day.
Rebbe Yitzhak Kaduri knew the truth.
Goodluck and God bless you my friend 🙏
@@REX-INRI-JESUS I'm sure such texts did exist in the earliest days of Christianity (though most early Christians were not very literate, as was true of most Jews as well--the earliest followers of Jesus were all raised Jewish and went on considering themselves Jewish. Once the work of converting pagans began, Greek was more useful, so that's why Paul, a Pharisee, used it.
If someone claims to have found such, I'd be extremely skeptical--people fabricate texts all the time, today and in the past. Often these forgeries are quite convincing, but forgeries they remain.
The Rabbi you mention seems to have predicted the Messiah would come--and said he'd met him. He died in 2006. Very tardy, this Messiah.
I revere the teachings of Jesus--and the Jewish teachings that influenced him at the time. But it seems Messiah is always coming, and somehow never gets here. We better see to saving ourselves. Jesus clearly believed the way to do that was to treat every around you, regardless of faith, the way you would wish to be treated. Being Jewish woudld not in itself save you--neither would being pagan automatically consign you to Gehenna, where your soul would be destroyed. He believed the separation of the Sheep from the Goats was coming within the lifetimes of the people he spoke to.
So much like Rabbi Kaduri, he was, shall we say, premature.
I am a Lapsed Catholic, sir, and quite content with my religion. :)
The original Aramaic texts are now a shortened version called the Super Gospel.
The encyclopaedia of lost and rejected scriptures by Joseph Lumpkin contains the whole volume.
I have a playlist called Messiah. Hebrew, Aramaic, and Paleo Hebrew are used to prove Messiah. Over 180 proofs of irrefutable evidence. I have more evidence.
@@REX-INRI-JESUS I googled. Lumpkin claimed to have reconstructed lost sources for the four gospels. It's clear he does not have the background to do that--nor would he have the material. Lost means lost. The memoirs of Octavian were lost. You can't just recreate them by thinking about it. There are 'lost gospels (the gnostic gospels as they are sometimes called) that have been rediscovered. They are not in Aramaic. And they are from centuries after Jesus. Good evidence for how Christian thought was evoving, but not likely to reveal to us what Jesus really did and said.
Lumpkin can publish any shit he likes, but I"m only interested in real scholarship. Which I am free to question--but why bother to question shit somebody made up to further his own ideas?
@christopherlyons5900
Ok, the Super Gospel is a compilation of the original Aramaic texts diligently translated into English over ten years of cross-referencing and confirming their authenticity. You'll be amazed at the information contained within. The problem many Rabbis have with the New Testament is the many languages they are translated into and errors being made. The important message is still conveyed, though. Btw the Super Gospel is just the Aramaic spoken in the day and recorded by Rabbis then. The Word of God who put on flesh. Yeshua HaMashiac 👑
The Jesus of the gospel narratives is a literary figure. His words are not his own but the author’s - spoken in a language not his own but rather that of his literary creator’s intended audience.
Paul was very misunderstood and never preached against Torah/law. He was always misunderstood because he spoke in mystery as an orthodox rabbi, and we don’t understand the history context. Even Peter talked about Paul’s words were confusing to people.
Peter was mocking Paul.
10:22 Excellent point, Rabbi Singer. To defeat the temptation, you have to have lust in your heart. That's the righteous person, not the one who didn't feel anything.
Amazing!
Interesting that saying about Paul and Matthew. Where does that date from?
When Jimmy Carter was US president, he quoted from the New Testament while talking about lust in one's heart, during a Playboy magazine interview. And I felt like that made him sound like such a weak person, but I never truly understood why I felt that way. Now I understand. Thank you for clarifying, Rabbi. Shalom!
I always thought of Jesus's comments conveyed that we all are sinful, by nature, no one is able to avoid sinning. That's the whole point of Christianity. You don't have to be without sin or blame, you have Jesus. I'm interested in your points, but you have to grant the other side its norms and premises.
The teachings of Paul are about realizing that we as people will always come up short... Therefore we are not justified by our good works only but by grace.
So that none of us may boast and become arrogant and selfrigteous because of our own righteousness but be justified by keeping the commandments and knowing that we are sustained by His grace..
As for the aldutery issue, Jesus was teaching his disciples to protect themselves by not even entertaining the thoughts of adultery because by doing so it will open you up to an even greater temptation by fantasizing about it.. If it is one thing it is an extra safeguard for your heart by not allowing it to enter your mind any further lest it may bear fruit and become an actual sin..
Do you know who thought Jeremiah was a Babylonian spy? Do you know what happened to Isaiah? Do you know what happened to Zechariah? The religious leaders persecuted them and accused them and it’s the same thing Tuvia singer is doing to Yeshua. Notice there are so many false messiahs but his focus has been on Yeshua, why? Because He is the true messiah.
Jesus isn't saying being tempted is sinful. If a pretty girl walks by I'll be tempted, anyone would, even Jesus was tempted, but am I dwelling on the thought? Am I running through scenarios in my head about how to make it happen, what would it would be like, what she looks like without those clothes? In other words, am I making it happen in my head because there are reasons I can't make it happen in reality (social norms, fear of rejection, fear of a divine punishment) or is my love for God and my trust in His Wisdom so great that I don't give the temptation room to fester? The latter demonstrates the heart God is seeking, as Moses says in Deuteronomy 6:5 "Love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength."
So deceptive! I’ve known Jesus since I was nine years old and I’m 57.
Tovia is like a god who does not change his mind, yet stuck in his ways with a hardened heart, leaving all that is spoken, left behind.
There is no other name that is above all names... Yeshua was given a name, therefore, there is one higher than he, surley you know his name?
Bh’ ✡️🇮🇱
By the way the music is awesome
Who is the singer?
It's Rabbi Tovia's voice. I love hearing him sing, he has an angelic voice!
Magic 🎩: jesus was the Jewish messiah.
@A false prophet and cult leader could have been non-Jewish because there wasn't any actual paperwork. No birth certificate from 2000 years ago...That player fulfilled no messiah prophecies.
Magic 🎩: It doesn't matter that the letter "j" has been used instead of "y" because the letter "j" is just about 500 years old.
@The king Messiah is supposed to have the name Dovid.
Magic 🎩: People can commit any crime and say the Magic words: "I forgive you."
@ If someone committed rape and / or murder and says: "You must forgive me, to be free"... That insanity is the church doctrine. Repentance is obviously better. But careless people that don't want to pay any punishment would say just speak peace and forgive.
Blessed be The God of The Jewish Faith ✡️ Hashem
"2 Samuel 2: 4 Then the men of Judah came to David and anointed him king over the people of Judah". Notice it wasn't a random woman who anointed David king, that's not really how it worked.
Stay safe Rebbe. My curiosity about Christianity , from a Jewish perspective, is why does a religion that worships a man born of a Jewish mother, lived & died as a Jewish man, is not acknowledged as being Jewish???
Is this not Christian hypocrisy when they do not study the Old Testament? i am a Levite & live a life of service to my fellow human in the medical field. Happy Pesach Rebbe
We actually do study the Old Testament and keep the Commandments, we just know that’s not how you get to Heaven. If I could show you that Jesus rose from the dead; would you be open to looking into Yeshua?
Christians read the One only book of Hashem with so much judgement that duplicating with the new testament would not get you anywhere near Hashem.
I don't think the anger and lust in your heart is meant to be taken literally. It's hyperbole to identify the origin of these "sins" and to develop an early detection system, you might say.
Why do Christian’s say things like he couldn’t fight off his demons. Or she couldn’t fight off her demons. What is that? IMO it’s crazy.
It's a concept that says he is a good person who struggles with his own personal hindrances, faults or fears.
I just copy/paste it.
I am honest ! 🙂
what was the name of the 2 texts Rabbi refers to at about 6.30 ??
Although Joseph recognized his brothers, they did not recognize him.
I was wondering about ax, where it says they came down to arrest him in the temple.They came down from where where was the temple?

תודה לך, כי נותן זווית נוספת של עמינו.
I just want to point out that I know many Christians who Converted to Judaism and many of them say "I realized Jesus was Jewish and for me realizing Jesus was historical made me realize I need to pray to Hashem."
Not only is Jesus historical but represent the 'as above so below' principal by having the path of the actual crufiction embedded inside the cranium which makes the bodies of Jews and Judeo Christians the true temple of Gd not made by human hands. Yeshua's appearance was absolutely fabulously mystical. I get so excited because I know if you do not follow the cleansing rituals under the Jewish teaching as a child, you would never be able to see the point of YHWH. The Pagan influence in secular life was way too enchanting. Thank you for mentioning that Yeshua played an important role in our salvation.
So they went back from praying the person « our father » to praying the impersonal « HaShem », which isn’t even in the scriptures! How sad.
@@ThefrenchFranz So they pray to Hashem realizing Jesus was Jewish man for them was just human made them realize and they prayed just to Hashem
@@ScenariosOfDrea Sadly, "HaShem" is not in the scripture... it is YHWH, given by the father himself to Moses, but that the Jews deliberately decided not to use. How sad!
But besides: your don't expect the Messiah to be Jewish? Ben Yossef, Ben David, but not Jewish?
@@ThefrenchFranz Hashem means God, and YHWH is literally a tetagram of God's name. Sadly, you don't know this. I expect the Messiah to be Jewish, yes, but we don't have to worship that person at all; some feel the messiah is also a messianic age of peace.
Rabbi, I don’t always agree with you, but the insight you presented here is profound. If there is no distinction between “being tempted by” and “yielding to”, temptation, much moral ground is lost! And though at one level it’s a legitimate spiritual observation (I.e., something one might find in Buddhism of Gnostic writings) the way it’s presented does have the odor of a later a Pauline sales strategy.
I also enjoyed your comment regarding Mark and Paul.
If you get a chance, read “Operation Messiah” by historian of espionage in the ancient world Lt Col Rose Mary Sheldon. You’ll find it well researched and interesting, whether or not you accept all of the conclusions drawn.
It’s so important what the messiah said, if it is in your heart, then it’s just like committing the act. Why is this addendum so important? Because it show man the difference, not only between him and a perfect holy God, but, how much more that he/she needs his or depend upon him to provide redemption for us. Remember, there can be no…or sin can not even exist in the presence of our Holy God!
"Adultery in the heart" is a non-Torah innovation.
Jesus is a fictional character. Seriously? G_d comes to Earth as a virgin-born water-walking magician healer miracle worker? L. Ron Hubbard would blush.
The whole world has been our Bet Din for the sake of a Mystery/Godspell for about 2000 years. We 'know' that things press along towards JUDGMENT, but few have any idea of where to start. Rabbi Singer has been the most authentic in interpreting the fallacious justifications for JESUS, but it doesn't end there. The synoptics vary from JOHN, and the SPIRIT OF PROPHECY HAS NOT BEEN REGARDED by Theologians ! "WHAT JESUS SAYS". not what you think he did.
Reading Let’s get biblical (still on vol.1 ). It is mind blowing! ❤ Rabbi Tovia Singer
So, generations of philosophers, Christians scholars and others … conflicted in the face of our commitment to Judaism, come up with interpretations of Torah that won’t challenge their own cultural, intellectual and religious pride.
And corrupting and adulterating the text is the only way they found to wiggle themselves out of the rigorous requirement of Torah .
They are afraid to take the plunge and immerse themselves in Torah.
They are just visiting, I will think of them as Torah Tourists!
Like my French family visiting for 2 weeks, (California) and purposely dismissing my inputs on whichever American oddity they perceive on the ground (and extraordinary feat of circular logic) that now that I am American I know LESS about America than 30 years ago when I came to America!
Obviously whichever conclusion they bring back to France doesn’t really matter.
Unfortunately, the corruption and adulteration of the biblical text is a weapon against Judaism and the Truth of Torah. So it is serious and it matters to know that it is happening. Thank you Teacher ❤
❤Much love here for my people in Israel 🇮🇱
Praying for your safety in the shadow of His wings. 🇮🇱
We are not to rely on anyone else to provide explanations of any part of Torah, whether for Jews or Gentiles, aside from accepted Jewish Torah scholars.
There is another interpretation that is valid.
There is a famous saying, idk who said it, but when Messiah comes, he would even interpret the spaces between the letters.
Yeshua's halakha teaches the torot are not merely for the outside demonstration but should also reflect inwardly.
The sermon on the mount demonstrates these mitzvot are to be adhered to both inwardly with attitudes of the heart and outwardly with our expressions and actions.
He said many other sayings that talk about this specific issue because the Prushims halakha deals only with the external and it's obvious.
Tovia makes it sound foreign but it's a simple teaching unless one is wrapped up so tightly in the rules of the rabbis one can't see how simple and eloquent it actually is.
Jesus is saying you can't just look the part. The commandments of God are spiritual and require a soft heart and consideration for the inward person even moreso than the external demonstration.
" If you're angry without a cause "
I totally agree. Paul & the others didn't get along. It can be easy to accept his teachings when that's all there is to read, but to say they are from HaShem might be a stretch.
Please use Spanish and Portuguese, and possibly, Russian subtitles
I have seen Jesus as a traditional Jew ever since I was mature enough to think for myself.
As an amateur Counter Missionary myself, I think that it's silly to not reclaim the fact that, like Rabbi Federow points out in his Learn Hebrew In An Hour Class, that TITTLE means the LAW. (In choich, they never tell ya!) Let's RECLAIM the Law (LOVE) from Paul. (X-tians are so confused.) Let's agree, when they watch the Mormon produced "Chosen": YES, the jesus CHARACTER was JEWISH! So turn to JUDAISM! Not the Orthodox Jewish Bible ( Messianic-Christian). Let's Take Back The Narrative!
There is no common ground!!! That myth sounds good and reads well, but it is the foundation of all the wars and conflicts of recorded history!!! People have all kinds of conflicting beliefs that cause all kinds of conscious and unconscious emotional discomfort. 😇
@@andrewmays3988 I miscommunicated. In terms of taking the Hijacked Jewish Bible back, X-tians want to say that jesus is Jewish, do why don't you want to follow him... I'm saying, if he was Jewish, then follow JUDAISM. I mean common ground in terms of using the NT to Defend Judaism. I'm not for Christian and Jewish Fellowships. I think Ben is making a terrible mistake. I looked at their board. The only goal of a Missionary is to Convert Jews by "being nice".
Jesus continues the conversation with that Jewish man and says you should sell everything and follow Him. Remember Jesus came for the Jews and questioned the oral traditions of Rabbis. Jesus being who He is taught us a way to exceed the righteousness of the Pharasees.
Paul on the other hand came for Gentiles. Even Jews agree that Gentiles are not obliged to keep the law..
I doubt he was talking about people being tempted, he was tempted too during the 40day fast. I think it's about people who entertain and fantasize sin, can't act on it maybe because they are scared or fear judgment, yet feel like they are not a sinner compared to someone who acted on it.
Thinking person finds these contradicts
Then is disturbed😍
"If you put Matthew and Paul in the room only one of them will come out alive."
Lol it means both have clashing views of Jesus.😂
Jesus wasn’t a Christian he never taught anything christianity teaches stay true and blessed my beloved Judaism ✡️ family stand strong OUR GOD IS ONE ☝️
The only credit I give this rabbi is that he has read the New Testament out of fear that his fellow Jews will accept Him as their Messiah. To use his own idea, if I put this guy and Jesus in a room together, I know whom I would follow: Jesus the Messiah, not Tovia, the Jewish hair-splitter.
The fact that you are so focused on trying to refute the Messiah is a good sign that Yeshua is the Messiah. Yeshua is the promised Messiah, He is the God of Israel who came in the flesh. He laid His life down as an atonement and after three days he conquered death, sin and Satan. He is giving time to His enemies to repent and be saved. As David said: “ the Lord said to my Lord, sit at My right hand until I make your enemies your footstool.”. Psalm 110.
This question was asked to jesus, then to paul, now to tovia with an intrest to see what comments will arise.
If you couldnt understand what paul or jesus said, how will you understand what tovia or the comments say?
But the line of looking at a woman with lust being equivalent to adultery IS quite similar to Orthodox Judaism, which requires women to dress modestly or it will tempt men. They see visual temptations as a slippery slope in that direction. I don’t understand why you would say that line in the New Testament is fully inconsistent with Orthodox Judaism. It seems to recognize the same continuity.
100% agreed. They draw a person in thru the little bits of Torah Truth, but then twist it, add to it, make it evolve into forsaking God & Torah & worshipping images (Jesus, sun-god, etc). By then we're caught & trapped by the experiences, visitations, clever arguments, etc.
Jesus taught a standard of purity that would lead people to self realization. If a man isn't strong enough to not look at a woman without lusting than he is weak and not very spiritual.
Yes that's Shiva.
The monomyth is a story of a heroes journey, which is a transitional story. The Gospels are tales of the transition of the Jews from them having a nation and temple to a people without out a physical nation or a temple.
Matthew I believe is a fictional story that uses the character of Jesus as a metaphor for the character of Israel during the first century messianic movement period, into the First Jewish-Roman War through the survival of the Jewish people and the faith through Rabbinic Judaism.
ISAIAH 64:6
How does that "ransom" equate to "levitical sacramental atonement"? 🤔
@@catrol5899 not anymore, however...
Hosea 6:6; Matthew 9:13; Matthew 12:7...
The crucifixion, in part, represents the end of sacramental atonement (Matthew 5:17)... 🤔
I believe Jesus was reiterating Job 31 and Leviticus 19:16-18. Even in Psalm 45, handsomeness and beauty are admired. However, we all know when we take it too far in our minds and hearts and play out a scenario with another person or image. Yet only God can really know or reveal if that person has crossed a line like in Ecclesiastes 12:13-14.
Shalom!
I noticed from reading the Bible that Jesus was never quoted as saying anything as criticism against animal sacrices, and nothing supporting punishments of death for violating the law of Moses. One interesting hint is that none of the New Testament books after Matthew, Mark, Luke, mention anything that can even with theological gymnastics be understood as prophecy about the 70AD destruction in Jerusalem. That is odd. I have my speculations that those specific passages were added to the gospels after the fact for dishonest reasons.
