Biblically Instructed Marriage Today? - Kosher Love - Full Documentary

What happens when a rabbinical matchmaker, a newly-married, young Hassidic couple and a single, religious hip-hop artist explore the precise meaning of humanity’s most powerful word? Kosher Love looks at the search for true love and bible-instructed marriage in the orthodox / Hassidic world as it pushes back against an ever encroaching, wired, secular world and its idea of momentary, disposable love.

Even when you get married for love, love still grows over time. I love my husband more today than when I married him 35 years ago. As I have watched him develop as a husband and father and grow as a Christian I love all the different aspects of his character. I thand G-d for him.

The definition of true love: …Love is patient and is kind. Love doesn’t envy. Love doesn’t brag, is not proud, doesn’t behave itself inappropriately, doesn’t seek its own way, is not provoked, takes no account of evil; doesn’t rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, and endures all things. Love never fails… I Corinthians 13:4-8

[@meeeka]

Not appropriate for here.

[@ONEFAITHofJESUS]

Love is always appropriate any and everywhere. Even the Messiah, the *SON* of the living G-D, showed love to those crucifying him as he hung on a tree. 🩸 What may I ask, would cause you to think that love isn’t appropriate?

@@ONEFAITHofJESUS “I was sent only to the lost sheep of Israel.” what comes after this is your changed Bible, he was addressing himself only to jews. He helped the Caananite woman only after she said this: '“Lord, help me!” Jesus answered, “It is not right to take the children's bread and give it to the dogs.” The woman said, “Yes, Lord, but even the dogs eat the crumbs that fall from their masters' table.” Then Jesus answered, “Woman, you have great faith!' The childrens bread: means himself , his body for his people, the ''bread'', and according to him the Cannaanite woman was a dog, a foreign to what he was sent for to help....he never said he is God, I and the father am one means i am part of the one who created me, same as u are part of God and anyhuman and living creature and everything that exists inb this Universe, jews and christians i see that they understood things differently, and the ones who modified Bible substracting and adding to it, did a very very wrong thing.

[@ONEFAITHofJESUS]

There may be some alterations in the New Testament but definitely more than enough truth and accuracy to be saved. The few who are true Christians have also been born of the Spirit and have the promise of being guided into ALL truth. Paul(Saul of Tarsus), was personally converted by JESUS the CHRIST and became Apostle to the Gentiles: “To save the Jews first, and now to save those who are not Jews.” erv “For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.” Romans 1:16

Some people simply are not marriage material due possibly to mental illness, drinking/drugging and/or narcissism. A couple of people in this podcast impressed me that way. It’s better to stay single than to ruin other people’s lives.

I 'm sorry, but l lived, 44 years with a narssis, lt can be done. The years pass fast, 2kids and6 gr kids. You have to want to make it , work, pray a lot, wait love, does come. Divorce, is selfish, it hurts every body, even you. God meant 1 man, 1woman married.! I believe God puts people, together. Esp.jews.although, l didn" find out l was Jewish until much later, my Jewish grandmother's, assimilated, married gentiles my husband being Jewish, l didn't know.. his family, was catholic.l met him, in a pentecostal church. I was raised, pentecostal, yet, we were .married, there, in 44years ago. That long, we might as well end, together!!!!!❤😂😅😊❤

[@sawahtb]

This is the real problem for him. He's not marriage material, stuck in his adolescents forever. I don't think he's a bad person, just immature. He needs a mother forever.

[@gb2850]

I remember when I got engaged to my husband,after only 2.5 weeks of dating, how my college friends asked me if I loved him. My answer was of course I don’t love him because there is no history together but I knew I could and would love him. One year later having had a full cycle of shared experiences I could feel it starting to blossom and at the three year mark I was sure we were on love. 26 years in I realize I was only touching the tip of what love really means. Having grown together and built so much together - we share a love that is so deep and meaningful and I now know will only get stronger. To clarify one thing- I was definitely attracted to my husband when we dated and definitely loved being with him and felt that “ zing” whenever we were together. But that is infatuation. Not love. It was exciting. And fun. But what I have now is deep and secure.

[@Ingi132]

Thats lovely.

[@nerminacamovic1600]

People who married without love and didn't fall in love as they had expected will never advise someone to do the same. Only the ones who have fallen in love will. It is hard to live without love, passion, romance... whatever you call it.

[@ellenosceola5707]

My mother used to tell me that love wasn’t all that important. She said that affection, respect and compatibility were important and love comes later. She told me that she didn’t love my father when they got married but that she grew to love him over time. They were happily married for 47 years until she passed away in 1997. I come from a Jewish family but my parents were pretty much non observant. However my mother seemed to have embraced this part of Judaism. My dad passed away in 2012 and told us before he died that my mom was waiting for him.

[@michelleg7]

Sometimes that happens, in my honest opinion that really is how good marriages survives. People often confused lust with love and then they get over it so fast and I am thinking did you really love that person? Love is built on mutual understanding, care and respect. It is certainly not always about love at first sight that just doesn't really happen to majority of people. We are fed those romantic fairytales and then people want that. We need to take a hard look at ourselves and say is where am I in life that I need a partner. I am not really a person so fixated on marriage but I feel that building that relationship through time may show up and built on respect, mutual trust and then love but that requires time.

[@mariekatherine5238]

If you’re born into the culture, it usually works. Sometimes it even works for non-Jews. My parents were introduced by a Jewish woman, a Holocaust Survivor and neighbor to my father. When he took too long to pop the question, she gave my father a necessary kick in the tuchis. They were married 68 years and passed one day apart. Seven of nine children are still living, 29 grandchildren, 14 great grandchildren, three great, great grandchildren and one more since their passing.

[@racheljones1998]

Miriam is a realist and I am here for it. ❤

[@amandamorton-king2112]

Attraction is VERY important because it is nature's way of assessing our partner's genetic suitability for us so a marraige without physical attraction, at least at the beginning, is quite wrong. However a marriage based ONLY on attraction is ridiculous because human beings are so much more sophisticated than just animals and those complexities need to be matched as closely as possible. So the elders and parentswith their wealth of character experience introduce the prospective matches and FROM that group, the couple then make their selection for marriage where God of course guides their choice. This to me is the best course of action.

[@elizabethgulley7044]

Omg!!! I love the couple- Michael, his exuberant wife and their baby girl is darling!!! They laugh so much together and their daughter smiles all the time!! They are so happy together and they are just plain charming!!!! I would want what they have!!

[@nerminacamovic1600]

I think Miriam wants someone who looks manly, not just a good father for her kids and supporting husband. He loves her though. Sadly that it doesn't evolve into romantic love for everyone. It is misleading that this matchmaker tries to convince people that love is inevitable later.

[@michelleg7]

[@nerminacamovic1600]

Geeting married without being in love are not rare at all across all cultures. I can't confirm to know anyone who has subsequently fallen in love, but I do know people who haven't and it is not easy to settle with the fact that there is not romance in your life. I think I would always feel unfullfilled if I was to settle for a loveless marriage. It takes two people for love and romance. I can not understand hiw Michael can just laugh like that when his wife is obviously frustrated with not getting what she was even ashamed to admit to have wanted.

[@chickenlover657]

You have no idea what love is. And neither does that horribly annoying woman. THAT'S why she's frustrated.

[@countrylivers]

Sorry, but the little short rapper boy is 34 going on 15 in the maturity arena! Plus he wants a Kim K lookalike……sorry, has he taken a look in his own mirror? Someone needs to come down to reality!!!

Yes, please stick to your music and step aside for a real man to be introduced to the woman. Just my opinion 🤷‍♀️

[@dorothysmith3850]

She was speaking passionately while talking to the rabbi. I didn’t take it as anger. I think she’s not feeling fulfilled in her marriage. She wants to feel but is lacking, being in love and is missing/wanting romantic feelings towards her husband.

[@antoinetteellis-babcock4590]

She was bright red! You could see one of the guys she dated was very handsome but blurred out! She was not in love with this man, they were just friends really! So unfortunate

[@shahnjaylaconnors1476]

I agree with Miriam, God doesn't intend us to marry just to marry, he intend us to be in loving, supportive marriages. That is a common human need. I also agree that some individuals in very conservative and/or strict families or communities (this can happen in any family/community) may feel they are forced into early marriage by loved ones. This can be very difficult for ans stressful for them. Scriptures should be taken in context of the individuals' timing, resources, and mental capacitu. Also, the focus on having children can be difficult for couples who experience infertility or may not be financially ready.

[@Aaron-SLC]

i agree that marriages should be supportive and loving but you can't hold your spouse hostage and terrorize them with feeling inadequate because you're neurotic like this woman. sometimes its just going to be bland.

[@autumn111155551]

I don’t understand why Miriam is so angry in that one scene when talking to the matchmaker. I thought she liked (even loved?) her husband and was happy with her marriage. Maybe not??

[@kathleenmarsden9609]

Montreal here Love is patient and kind

[@DevjKaiser]

It doesn’t really seem like Miriam wanted to be married, she just wanted to be wanted and sought after. She said she was in many relationships before her marriage and there she found love, but if she found love then why didn’t it lead to marriage? She seems bitter and angry that God gave her what she needed in her life rather than what she wanted for her own pleasure. The way she describes Michael is supportive, kind, lovable, understanding, encouraging, all these things women seek in a spouse, yet she’s not satisfied? Confusing.

[@tamararutland-mills9530]

My impression is that she did too much drinking and drugging in her early years.

[@yanaf.-g.7743]

Yonathan discribed his relationship to G-d, and shared that he looks for that experience with his future partner. Why would a partner would need to be like that if i found it already with G-d? My perspective is, having found this with G-d enables me/us to do service together with our partner. Thank you, everyone who allowed us to look into their personal lives, to reflect who we ourselves are. 🙏

I wanted my son to find someone, I really did, and he came close a number of times. He had good employment and could have made a home but he had issues. He had addictions and anxiety and I didn't doubt that marriage would be really a disaster unless he could get a handle on things. He's still single and I expect he'll stay single and that will have to be ok. He doesn't have a lot of patience and he might not make a good parent.

[@discipelofyhwh]

When I heard that woman talking angrily, I didn't find it insulting at all. I heard her pain and sadness. She's absolutely right. Love must be able to be very special. I said a loud “Amen” when she finished speaking. When I heard the wedding planner talk about love it was like being punched in the face. (Dutch saying) It seems as if you are talking about a machine with buttons where children come out. There is no love or passion at all. He looks like death and is very cold-blooded. The difference between him and her is that she knows the Torah. God is in her heart. God is alive and not cold-blooded at all. Do you know Song of Songs? This is the example of how God feels love for His bride. He compares Israel to a bride. He married Israel. Love hurts too. Anyone who has ever lost a loved one knows that love can break your heart and kill you. It's all about love. We were created out of love to love. In the New Testament it is written that all the commandments in the Bible can be summarized in two commandments: to love God with everything you have and also to love your neighbor in the same way. You have different types of love. The love for your mother is not the same kind of love as for your husband. You must study the Torah for yourself and not always listen to people who talk 'about' the Torah. God is not happy with all your rules and hates human traditions. If you read the Torah yourself you will find this out. Isaiah 28:9-17 KJV [9] Whom shall he teach knowledge? and whom shall he make to understand doctrine? them that are weaned from the milk, and drawn from the breasts. [10] For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little: [11] for with stammering lips and another tongue will he speak to these people. [12] To whom he said, This is the rest wherewith ye may cause the weary to rest; and this is the refreshing: yet they would not hear. [13] But the word of the LORD was unto them precept upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little; that they might go, and fall backward, and be broken, and snared, and taken. [14] Wherefore heard the word of the LORD, ye scornful men, that rule these people which is in Jerusalem. [15] Because ye have said, We have made a covenant with death, and with hell we are at agreement; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, it shall not come unto us: for we have made lies our refuge, and under falsehood have we hid ourselves: [16] therefore thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a sure foundation: he that believeth shall not make haste. [17] Judgment also will I lay to the line, and righteousness to the plummet: and the hail shall sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters shall overflow the hiding place. God is going to strike you because you do not listen to His voice and do what He says. You have rejected Him. You do not obey the Torah but the laws and rules of people, rabbis who talk 'about' the Torah. It is written that no prophecy admits of an 'arbitrary' interpretation. Prophecy is only revealed by God and not by men. You can search and read and read the scripture but without God's help you will not understand it because it is He who reveals the scripture. You need God's Spirit to understand His Word. Flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God, you must be born again through water and the Spirit. All these instructions are in the New Testament. Read and research it instead of listening to people's judgments. Jesus was Jewish, the twelve apostles were Jewish. The first churches were even founded by Jews and Jews rule the Catholic Church! Do your own research. Read the history of Spain and Portugal. Those who call themselves Jewish were able to buy off their identity at the time. Other Jewish people were converted to Catholicism because they did not have enough money or because they wanted to keep their wealth and therefore converted. They rose to high positions in the Catholic churches that are now run by them. That is why the Catholic Church has fallen away because they serve the sky goddess (Mary) as Jews did in the past: ‭‭Jeremiah‬ ‭44:16‭-‬23‬ ‭KJV‬‬ [16] As for the word that thou hast spoken unto us in the name of the LORD, we will not hearken unto thee. [17] But we will certainly do whatsoever thing goeth forth out of our own mouth, to burn incense unto the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings unto her, as we have done, we, and our fathers, our kings, and our princes, in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem: for then had we plenty of victuals, and were well, and saw no evil. [18] But since we left off to burn incense to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings unto her, we have wanted all things, and have been consumed by the sword and by the famine. [19] And when we burned incense to the queen of heaven, and poured out drink offerings unto her, did we make her cakes to worship her, and pour out drink offerings unto her, without our men? [20] Then Jeremiah said unto all the people, to the men, and to the women, and to all the people which had given him that answer, saying, [21] The incense that ye burned in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem, ye, and your fathers, your kings, and your princes, and the people of the land, did not the LORD remember them, and came it not into his mind? [22] So that the LORD could no longer bear, because of the evil of your doings, and because of the abominations which ye have committed; therefore is your land a desolation, and an astonishment, and a curse, without an inhabitant, as at this day. [23] Because ye have burned incense, and because ye have sinned against the LORD, and have not obeyed the voice of the LORD, nor walked in his law, nor in his statutes, nor in his testimonies; therefore this evil is happened unto you, as at this day. Yahweh will bring everything to light. The only solution is to repent and seriously examine the Torah. Read Isaiah 53. God has given you so much time to search His Word. There are people in this world who do not care about their own lives at all and stake their lives for God and die for God. They know who they are dying for because they know Him and have a relationship with Him. God will separate the goats from the sheep. He is no respecter of persons. Many who boast of being descended from Abraham will be cast out of heaven. Jesus will say: I do not know you. If you don't know God, how can God know you? Isn't a relationship with someone like 'knowing' each other? I know you have no relationship with God. That is not possible without the Holy Spirit. You need to be filled with God's spirit. Without His Spirit you cannot enter His kingdom. Flesh and blood cannot inherit God's kingdom. We must clothe ourselves with God's Spirit, with the slain lamb. Jesus was God's sacrificial lamb. As Abraham sacrificed Isaac, so the Father had provided His own sacrificial lamb. The Father in heaven sacrificed His only Son to save all mankind. At least for those who believe and accept Jesus. Study the Torah! You do not know your own Torah. Every book in the Old Testament refers to Jesus. He is the Alpha and the Omega. I won't be surprised if this post gets deleted. That only confirms your own words that you spoke when you had Jesus crucified: let all the blood be on us. This prophecy has almost been completely fulfilled. But if you repent before God closes the door of grace forever, there will be forgiveness and He will accept you with all love. For God is merciful and loving. But He is also Judge and must judge the world. He is a just judge who cannot be bribed. That's why I love Him because I love righteousness. Amen And I love the woman in your video speaking with passion. ‭‭

Glad they are ok in general

[@mrsdanmiller]

The interview at 35:00 is missing the word “connected.” The woman is attempting to express that she senses a lack of intimate bonding. This lack is due to the husband’s emotional inadequacy. The “Rabbi” is validating the husband’s dysfunction by insisting that the wife is wrong to be discontent. How will marital peace be nurtured if her accurate estimation of lack is disregarded? I’ve been where she is and the lack induced loneliness which drove me from my family, children and friends who remain influenced by a fundamentally religious cult. A person can leave a cult but the cult will NEVER leave an ex-member. Haunting, isn’t it!

What?! That is absurd! She is talking about Expectations placed on someone, that is expectation and pressure to not disappoint to be married to someone you may never ever fall in love with, I have heard it several times in various interviews about the Hasidic community. That doesn't have anything to do with god, that is coercion and manipulation do as your told so we won't shun you or force you in otherwords. She is absolutely right in that aspect. She was very lucky she had a high school sweetheart, not everyone is so lucky. People sure like to throw around the word soulmate and have people not married their soulmate? Yup more times than a person can count. Rabbis are religious leaders they are not marriage or relationship counselors and usually don't have any kind of training in such a way either.

exactly. she didn't get married until 36. she wasn't sitting in a nunnery.

What happens if one or both of the partners are attracted the same sex

[@mariekatherine5238]

If they know in advance, don’t look for an orthodox or Hasidic arranged marriage! If it comes up later, time to get a get.
