This eye-opening documentary series was filmed with remarkable access to the hidden world of one Orthodox community in Manchester, U.K.
How do people live their everyday lives with so many traditional rules ?
Madness and frivolity ensues as the weird and wonderful festival of Purim-is celebrated by the community as a whole, young and old. Purim is the only day in the Jewish calander when it is a Mitzvah (a commandment) to get drunk. And exotically dressed visitors must literally sing for their supper.

That is sad Rabbi Jaffee didn’t even know the mourners name or his family member who died.
Just watched all Three episodes.
Fascinating.
Many thanks for sharing.
My pleasure!
Was für eine schöne Art zu leben mit all diesen Bräuchen und Traditionen! Das Leben der Gemeinschaft ist wundervoll. Es macht, in der heutigen, verrückten Welt noch mehr Sinn!
Das stimmt
Love jewish religion admire them hard working clever race of people being an East Ender we had lots of them love their food and way of life make sure all synagogues are kept open
rabbi Jaffe is a very caring person, very kind but i find his children are just so wild
As a secular Jewish woman I really enjoyed watching these 3 eposides, to see the "other" side. In WW2 my orthodox Jewish grandmother stopped [out of fear I guess] "being Jewish" so no kosher food etc. She had to wear the yellow star though but luckily she survived the war. That way my mom never learned how to be an orthodox Jew and therefor I never learned to be an orthodox Jew.
Now I'm older [62] I start to long for knowledge about Jewism. I suck it all in, I'm just to chicken to just go to a rabbi here in my city [Amsterdam] and ask him everything I want to know, so ... I watch RUclips for knowledge... . I also long to go to Israel and especially Jerusalem, unfortunately my health is not good enough to travel.
Thank you so much for your appreciative comments. Your perspective is very welcome.
Surely the rabbi would be very happy to answer all your questions and make you feel welcome.
B”H it’s never to late!!! Start your own pace don’t go too fast!!!
You can find every thing in books.
It’s never too late to love YHVH…🙏
As a Catholic. I've learned a lot about these wonderful people
Same here -why didnt we hear bout this in school? Openess t all religions is so important
What did you learned from what Menachem said at 42min 38sec?
Very Kind,others could learn your kindness
As a Jew, with half my fam being catholic, we all appreciate your open minded & kindness when learning about other human beings. Alot of people choose to demonize all jews, so its nice that you are not.
Thankyou for sharing. ❤
"We don't really understand, we just accept and do."
👸🌷 As a R. C. I'm gladly watching this interesting video, about this ancient (to me a bit mysterious) religion.....
People are wise, and usually good in business. Fascinating.... 📚👑👸🌷
A truly rare non-Jewish documentary of Ultra-Orthodox Jews that is well-researched, interesting, highly accurate and well-rounded, and is done in a respectful (rather than derogatory "what a bunch of odd people") manner. Kudos and thanks.
many thanks !
This is better than Borat.
Very commendable & interesting but way too regulated for me. Thank you very much, have a nice day.
I'm in the USA. I have experienced disdain for being "non-religious" aka not Jewish. Snide comments. Theres good and bad in every religion. These lovely people would be horrified because they are good people. Remember the bad in any religion is maybe 1% Show love and kindness to everyone.
Loved watching thanks 😊
kids (ultraorthodox) not being allowed to touch interact after they are 12/13(girls/boys) is rough ...
It's a very interesting religion being a none believer of God I find all religions fascinating
This is showing me information about some fellow citizens that I have never heard of on my 50 years on earth. I only know that such people and the rules etc where spoken of in whispers and shadows and even today I don't hear anything about the Jewish Community, and I am quite shocked because of we are sincere about the Never Again and suchlike then surely we must explode any myths and secrecy surrounding the Jews? Best wishes 🙏
😊
Then you need to get out more.The ultra orthodox are the fastest growing group of Jews in Europe/USA/GB?/?Israel.Its time you got to know the neighbours
❤❤❤❤❤❤
God bless the Jewish people
I think not all married Jewish women wear a sheitel wig, but some wear a tichel, which is a cloth covering, similar to what some Muslim women wear.
Most Jews are not orthodox and the women don't cover their hair in any way.
It's the same, they're interchangeable. My daughter and I sometimes look at Jewish blogs for hijab ideas and I know that some Jewish ladies look at Muslim ladies for inspiration. Women covering their hair is a very ancient practice and was worldwide, Vikings,Greeks,Lots of Asian cultures, Eastern Europe.....
Rabbi David joffe is so cute the way he comes out of the green door at 13:12 ❤👌🙂 lol love his positive attitude.
I Like and very important the LAWS
The DIY company really intrigued me as a Biblical scholar, particularly as any case of mould would require inspection of a rabbi before acting (Leviticus 14:33-53).
He should make some modifications to his diet. He is breathing very hard.
I am a Christian man, raised Catholic, I am reminded that Jesus or Yeshua was a Jewish man, and that Jewish cult was how Christians were seen at first. Having watched this with interest I have to say yes it is a very close community but it seems that a lot of time is spent circumventing The Law, Jesus said that the Sabbath was made for man and man not made for the Sabbath. As we look at the Passover what do we see but the same event played out in the Last Supper. Jesus sat with his men on that sabbath evening and partook in the meal, Look at the numbers of men, it was a Minion. Christians are so closely related to these people we could be Messianic Jews. If we want to understand just what Jesus was about and why He did things look at the Jewish People, They are doing the same things for three thousand years. I did notice that a lot of things that they do is the same as we Irish Catholics do at the time of death. The covering of mirrors and open a window and so on, Peace to all those that are living here on this planet, May G-d Bless and Keep you all.
I do believe that Judaism is rather older than Irish Catholicism. And FYI, a minyan is 10.
@@sheilaboydell9171 Doesn’t a Minyan require a minimum of 10, but not an exact number of 10? Some Jewish communities have 20, 10 men & 10 women.
There are Modern Orthodox Jews who are more secular.
People are becoming more and more secular and its good for all
Rabi Jaffe is always rushing and panting
he's a man with a plan!
The Kindergarten scene singing About Hashem being here,there,everywhere was just beautiful.Warm and Comforting.Non Jews could learn a lot from This.
How beautiful
Nice documentary! Is Diet Coke kosher? I thought it could only be consumed on Passover, but I see one of the ladies drinking it here.
Yup. It’s kosher in America and most likely in Britain. Not necessarily in all countries
Amazed to see Coca Cola , it rots peoples teeth , keeping Kosher then drinking crap , is contradictory .
The jewish have lots of children and large homes but i want to know how can the dad afford such things on one job ? When mother is at home with the kids ? It seems an impossible task ?
Some Conservative Jewish communities in N.Y. USA I understand are on government assistance with so many children. Sometimes women work out of tbe home .I saw this on Utube. I enjoy Sonya's Prep. She is a school nurse with five children. She is extremely organized and efficient and has her home in complete order. She shares receipes as well as sharing her beliefs.
@@georgiafrye2815 I've seen her i think. I just think each to their own but how they support themselves financially i will never know
@@georgiafrye2815 Conservative Jews are actually secular (I am one). You are mistaking Conservatives with Ultra Orthodox Jews. The ultra orthodox do not take anything from the government; they help each other financially when required. Try watching this vid ...
The majority don't work they pray all day
@@elainemoulson2578 that's what I thought
Funny how purim is around the same time as mardi gras
The English term for the Tefillim is Phylacteries.
Put on your seat belt
That’s up to him…nowt to do with anyone else!
But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, nor thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thine ox, nor thine ass, nor any of thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates; that thy manservant and thy maidservant may rest as well as thou. So in essence... Klyne & Klyne is causing others to sin by allowing them to work on the Sabbath, where they won't. Looking for ways around it. Makes good biblical sense.
As a Jew myself, I've always found it thought-invoking how you mustn't touch the fruit of the tree for the first three years - that is why their hair isn't cut for the first three years, but a brit milah after 8 days is fine?!
Upsherin is a hasidic custom that has found wider acceptance in haredi circles. It has nothing to do with the commandment not to harvest fruit off the tree for the first 3 years. Brit milah is a positive mitzvah from the torah. Please learn more from jews
well, if you are a jew you should know why brit milah is performed at 8 days for a jew..13 years for a muslim. at 8 days, vit K has the highest value in all your life. As for the mistical-cuantic reasons, you should study the Zohar..
A few possible reasons: mom might no longer be nidah, by day 8 baby is guaranteed to have had a shabbat, it's the thing that makes you Jewish so you have to do it right away, Adam's bris was done on the 8th day. It's also suprarational (see Manis Friedman's 'my G.d is crazy'), which means the why is for God, the execution is up to you to do anyway without explanation.
No it's not 'fine'.Its a fundamental command.Do you think it would be better to do a brit mila at 3 years? Go speak to the kids in Ukraine who have brit milas later on in life if you Really want to know...
Foreskin doesn’t grow back and is therefore not comparable to fruit regardless.
It's fascinating how some of the laws are similar to those of Islamic practices (like women having to cover their head after marriage)
You read my mind..thinking the exact thing !!
Actually the Jewish tradition and islamic one is polar opposites. For example Jews have a matrilineal heritage; you are only a Jews if you are born to a Jewish mother or convert tot eh religion. Lots of people cover their heads. If anything the Orthodox Jews are more like the Amish (who also cover their heads) who are a Christian Anabaptist sect. We even speak a very similar old German language.
That,s normal. Islam came even after christianity..both islam and chritianity took many elements from the jewsh faith..and jews brought some ancient traditions from the sumerian, mesopotamian culture. God gaved Laws for all culture in all times..:)

It's not a religion or even a theism of any kind - it's an obsession with rules where the process itself is the focus.
It's what honor guard is to actual combat troops. A show.
Does anyone know why they all rock back and forth while praying?
It’s called Shukeling and it’s basically something done to become closer to Gd. As is pretty much the reason for everything they/we do.
"My whole being will exclaim,
“Who is like you, Lord?
You rescue the poor from those too strong for them,
the poor and needy from those who rob them.”
-- Psalm 35:10
We pray with the whole body. It also induces a kind of altered consciousness for prayer.
@@blumberg1982Muslims do it while reading Quran for the same reason 😊
Shalom, I live in Romania, i try to convert from 6 years, but here not posibile. I frecvent house of chabbad, because not exist big comunity jew in this city, and ortodox rabbi not are.

I love to sing prayers, i love still of life....pls Rabbi of beit din answer me.
You cant convert to Judaism. Your mother has to be jewish at least
@@JustDaniel6764you can, it’s just the process takes a long time but very possible. In order to convert you mother does not have to be Jewish, it’s just that being Jewish comes from the mother
24:01 I would make a terrible Rabbi if I was Jewish, not got the heart to turn away the care in the community guy from joining.My team would always lose in school sports cause I'd pick the duffers so they don't feal left out.They should have found him a big girl and made two people happy 😊
Since Covid the "Namaste" gesture has turned out to be really valuable. Or as it's called in Japan, "Gassho". And it's not worshiping another God because Buddhists don't really do the God thing. It's just a nice way to salute another that doesn't involve mashing hands together. Very civilized.
You have no God❓
what's that fat belly thing that people bring food but he never eats because he's made of stone❓guess he's a statue
That English northern wanting to convert to judaism looked strange.
Yeah he did , the Rabbi didn't seem keen to want him to join.
I think a lot of people forget that Jesus was Jewish....
And all the Apostles…most of the Biblical Forefathers…🙏
Lol, imaginary people can be any religion you like.
Yes, he was, but is not recognized as the messiah by Jews.
He was, but he preached against the hypocrisy of the religious leaders.
Yeshua was Jewish and Palestinian it was known as Palestine
Strange .women do it all,and the men do nothing.
Who takes care of the kids when mom is working and Dad is studying?
How do these guys work if they go to synagogue 3 times a day
They work very very HARD. My husband wakes up at 6:30, He prays at 6:45 and studies Torah. He is at home by 8:30 for breakfast and then leaves to work. He works from 9:00 - 1:00 (then prays the afternoon prayer) and works until 5:30. He then comes home and eats dinner with the children and spends VALUABLE time with them. He prays again at 9:00 (and learns more Torah) He makes an EXCELLENT living BH to support us (I work as well) so that we take NOTHING EVER from the government. He is one of tens of THOUSANDS of Jewish men who do this. He also volunteers and helps prepare dead bodies for Jewish burial. We DO NOT watch tv, so there is a great deal of quality time.
@alizafuchs4867 is RUclips not a form of telly? I typically only watch TV at family's.
You can see how fast they live…there’s a lot of obligations to fit in a finite period of time…🙏
i personaly do it at school at 8 am , 215 pm, 9 pm or at8 am and the other 2 around the same time right before and after sunset

So no TV just you tube on a smart phone.
Gotcha

Religion is fascinating. Many have their own books in addition to the Bible (Judaism, Islam, Mormons, etc), and they all believe they are right. Most have their own rituals. What I find in common is the inordinate requirements of women and the preoccupation with sex. Its very strange to me that the Jews are the ones who are vilified. They aren't bothering anyone, and they are family, work, and charity oriented.
The rocking is prostrating themselves before God. Humility
I don't understand how it's possible that there are people hating Jews.
For me the Jews are the must beautiful human being.
God made us All, Jewish or not
Is it against jewish law to handle a dead body during passover? Did this law exist when Jesus was supposedly crucified?
You can read in John 19:31 about that timing. Christ was taken down quickly before the special Sabbath. The Jewish leaders wanted the bodies removed from the Cross immediately so they wanted the three to have their bones broken to hasten their deaths, Christ already died before the two so no bones were broken and that was to fulfill prophesy and the scripture reads " These things happened so that the scripture would be fulfilled: “Not one of his bones will be broken,” foretold in Psalm 34:20 and, as another scripture says, “They will look on the one they have pierced," (which is a future prophesy to be fulfilled for the latter day coming written in Zechariah 12:10). Look up John 19:31 and read the paragraph.
It’s all so complicated.
That poor ol boy can’t buy a new (2nd hand) jumper, as it’d cost him 5 hard-earned scheckles, so he’ll just have to sew it up instead!

Does not show their hair to other men because “Living hair being attractive” then goes to wear a human hair wig, please explain?
Why do women have to cover their hair but not the men??
Men have different modesty rules. Most notably, the strings hanging at the sides of the men are attached to an undershirt called a tallit katan, and only men are required to wear them.
The men are literally wearing kippot/yarmulkes.
@@Mama24loves yes but not with a shaven head. They keep their hair.
@@audreykennedy90women don't shave their hair. They just cover their real hair with a wig.

Very very Old- fashion Way of Living! Nowadays it dont work out in western community.
I had a friend when I was nine-years-old who was Jewish
That’s fascinating…thanks!
Your prize is n the post! 🙄
As an introvert, this religion looks like a nightmare.😵💫😣
Why do they rock when they pray?
It is said and has been declared in Torah to pray as a flame, and to tremble as the people did at Mount Sinai when the Torah was given. It's a way to be physically bound and focused on prayer.
In my religion women have to wear long dress and long skirts that our rules in our religion 😊
✡️ ~ I enjoyed the documentary. But it all seems so strange. A lot of this seems pretty pointless. And I actually think it makes more sense how Muslim women cover their hair and not Jewish women. Because a wig could be just as attractive as your natural hair, in fact a wig could be more attractive.
And I would like to know if 13 year-old boys are not allowed to touch their own mother, because that’s what it seems like. Hell, I know kids that age don’t like hugs and kisses from their parents anymore because I feel like they’re old enough, Lol, but that still seems very strange and cold.
I should think they can! In Islam we're also not to touch members of the opposite sex, but it's ok with relatives to whom you cannot marry. Same with being covered or on your own in a room with. If they're close family, it's fine. Shame that there's not Jewish people answering the questions. And I agree about the wigs😂 you should see some of the wigs😱 Va va voom! I've seen the young women in New York with huge masses of dark curls all down their back.... skirting around the edges of the rules I should think!
Some practices have Intriguing proximity to Islam. Some words to Arabic(sadaka, Mizbah, talasim). I could see through why we start with the right side wearing any clothing on, the “nidah” wash, the slaughter stipulations, eschewing pleasures during the 3-day mourning. and some traditions still current in the Arab and Islamic world.
Islam is a lot easier though on both the women and men
That because Islam comes from the Bible, Its long documented that Mohamed went to a cousin of his in Yisrael (Not the place they call YIsrael today) & he learned of our practices so that he could take it back to his people who were waring over multiple gods. The problem is they later tried to force us to believe that there's was from YHWH years later when we declined they put us to the sword & declared war on us since. I speak of the Bloodline of Yisrael of course. But its why you find that Allah in the quran says YIsraelites are love more than they. Because it came from Torah.
Islam grew (post Torah/Bible) out of the same neighborhood and very similar peoples…🙏
Islam was created by Mogamed and he used what he knew about judaism lol. Is not coincidence at all.
@@KingKaturathe “prophet” “copied” the same laws and traditions from judaism.
It's not surprising, as Islam was copied from judaism. Muhammad first started murdering Jews when they refused to leave their religion and join his new one.
I certainly respect these ppl but i wonder if they realize they actually came from africa like everybody else. Jewish religion like every other one is relatively short compared to humans existence.
Why do the women wear wigs and not hijabs like Muslim women
probably because the are jewish and not muslim
We are middle east Jewish, we cover our head with hat or hejab,but not like an Muslim. 😊
It’s cultural… some cultures cover their hair this way and some do it another way.
Many Orthodox Jewish women especially Hasidic use head scarves . wig or scarf is up to local custom either way a married woman's hair must be covered in the Orthodox tradition.
Glad someone is carrying on traditional religious festivals instead of a fake materialized show. 🎉
What's beautiful about these Jewish women who are in the workforce, they cook, and take care of their family with 5011 million kids like its nothing.
Whereas the modern women act like it's impossible lol
No complaints about any Jew in Belgium, orthodox or not. You just won't hear from them even if they have a right to speak up. Very welcoming community. Why do we hate Jews then? Stereotypes? In fact I come to the conclusion Judaism must be the only 'religion in practice.' left.
Nope! After my nde I learned that only religion is LOVE.
Christianity??

Judging from the computers shown, this was filmed many years ago' But I'm sure little has changed functionally. Whether in the Bet Din or in this particular Chabad communigy ĥ
At first I thought the series was new but then realised I know one of the families and that it had been recorded many years ago.
It was filmed in 2004
I grew up In this community and it has changed a bit but overall it's pretty much the same
