I'm a Christian who was educated on Judaïsm during school and even did a project on one of the holidays. I went to a synagogue with my class during primary school and was amazed as a child. This video brought back those memories and I'm after 18 years still amazed. Sadly the synagogue in my hometown closed down after WWII, but it's a museum and monument to remember the people who were once part of the community.

[@kaaatelynatkinson]

One thing that continues to warm my heart is that many things within the Jewish faith seem to be done with such purpose. Everything has a reason, and a history. For a religion that has faced such continual hardship throughout history, it makes me so happy to learn about the importance of all of your rituals and holidays, and that items related to your faith such as the mezuzah, the Torah covers, and even Shabbat table settings are so special and ornate. It shows me, as an outsider, the love that goes in to your faith and the care you take in practicing it. I love witnessing others who are so dedicated to their faith.

[@ilenet9911]

I found this out when i started my first job at 21. My co worker wasn’t Jewish and he told me he loved the Jewish religion because everything was done with purpose and meaning behind it. Also i don’t understand why people have hatred against Jewish people. I can’t even count how many times during Shabbat services we pray for peace for everyone.

[@kaaatelynatkinson]

[@Shoshi2048]

@@cynthialagraff4144 Dear Cynthia, thank you for your comment. This will help explain. 💖 What Are the Five Books of Moses? Often referred to as Torah, especially when in scroll format, the Five Books of Moses are the foundation of Judaism. Until this very day, the text-which is written in Hebrew-has been carefully preserved by the Jewish people. It is also known as Chumash and Pentateuch (related to the respective Hebrew and Greek words for “five”). As their name indicates, the Books were written by Moses, as dictated by G‑d Himself. Jewish people see every letter and every nuance as a sacred communication from G‑d, rife with significance and meaning. They contain 613 mitzvahs, Divine commandments that shape the life of Jewish people everywhere. The Five Books: Bereishit (Genesis): The creation of the world and the early history of the Jewish nation, including the stories of Adam and Eve, Noah, Abraham and Sarah, and Joseph. Shemot (Exodus): The slavery in Egypt, the Exodus, the Giving of the Torah, and the building of the Tabernacle. Vayikra (Leviticus): Deals with the Temple sacrifices, kosher, and other aspects of Jewish ritual life. Bamidbar (Numbers): Many events that happened to the Israelites on their way to the promised land, including G‑d counting the people, the Spies debacle, the Korach uprising. Devarim (Deuteronomy): Nearing the end of his 40 years of leadership, Moses speaks to the people, preparing them for life in the Promised Land. www.chabad.org/library/article_cdo/aid/3912290/jewish/What-Are-the-Five-Books-of-Moses.htm

Shalom, Dr. Sarah. My husband introduced your channel, and I am looking forward to learning more on Orthodox Sephardic Judaism. I am currently a Noahide (left the Catholic faith more than a decade ago, and jumped to various Christian denominations; and have been drawn to Torah and Jewish Wisdom since about 9 years ago). I follow Rabbi Michael Skobac and Rabbi Manis Friedman. My husband is a regular at an Orthodox Sephardic Synagogue back home. Soon, B"H, we are looking forward to converting. Thank you for the videos.

I loved connecting with you! Years ago I worked for a dentist who was Jewish, as I had never known anyone Jewish before I bought some books and did some reading. One day I had the courage to ask him if I could ask him a couple of questions as some of the books had different views. He was surprised but willing to answer my questions. It came down to orthodox versus newer reformed. When they had a baby naming for their daughter they invited me to attend as they thought that I would basic understanding and would be respectful. I thoroughly enjoyed it and was honoured to be their. Now I know more about a more orthodox version. Thank you!

[@calanm7880]

Dear Dr Malka, this video was a breathtaking & marvellous insight into this place of worship. I am woefully uninformed about Judaism, so your kind warm guided tour of an Orthodox Synagogue is so helpful & informative! From the Tree Of Life display of inscriptions to the seating, you explained significance of these personalised aspects well. As a book lover, my favourite bits were you explaining the books supplied to worshippers and their purposes (I loved the wee pictures on spines to indicate when to be used), but most especially the stunning scripture scrolls! If appropriate, please convey thanks to all involved for the intimate film views of not just of the incredible skilled handwritten scrolls and their remarkable containers (which I understand are utmost sacred), but also seeing the honourable position in which they are housed in your house of worship! And attention to detail by architects and builders, that the steps on upper balcony were somewhat shallower. I think I’ll watch this again. My first video of yours (which got me to subscribe recently) was your tour of a kosher shop, which again was an delightful education. Oh and as final comment, I did love the digital clock showing all the information about times and dates in different formats - what a clever and practical piece of technology! And your signing off in narrating this KZbin was so full genuine warmth and spiritual connection, I was personally moved. Many thanks

Hello from Petach Tikva, Israel. I always enjoy your videos and learn something new. My husband is Mizrachi which isn't the tradition that I grew up with so the differences in customs is always interesting. I wish that I knew all the melodies to the various prayers in a Sepharidic synagogue because I don't and it keeps me from feeling as at home as I wish that I did. Also, the way of receiving an aliyah to the Torah was a big surprise to me. Another surprise for me here in Israel is the custom that the women have of throwing down candies for a special simcha like a bar mitzvah, for example. Anyway, I just wanted to say "shalom" so you are always sure that you are appreciated for all the work that you do in making these videos.

I absolutely loved coming along with you, thank you so much for sharing with us ❤ I'm not Jewish myself but live in a Jewish part of my city and love learning from you, it's so interesting ❤️ xxx

I love to connect with you! I always enjoy your videos. You are so gentle and sweet. I learn so much from you. My day has been rough and you brought some peace to me. Thank you.

Beautiful synagogue, thank you for the tour!

[@frumitup]

Glad you enjoyed it!

I found the comment on praying in the same location in the synagogue interesting. Over the many, many years I have been going to church, I find myself always gravitating to same place in relation to the altar. At home I have a chair that I only use for prayer. This helps me remind myself that when I am in this chair, my focus is on G-d. I want to also share that a couple of weeks ago I asked the Frum It Up community to pray for some upcoming medical tests. Thank G-d, everything came back benign and able to be treated with medication. I am very grateful for any prayer that came my way. Sara, thank you for this wonderful place of learning and care.

Hi Sara, loved this video. Such beautiful spaces and as always I learnt so much. I’m wondering if you’ve ever considered doing a series on motherhood as an orthodox Jewish woman? For example talking through pregnancy and any traditions and then any traditions surrounding motherhood itself! As always thank you so much for always sharing your life and love for those around you so openly ❤

[@frumitup]

What a great idea! Thank you ❤️❤️❤️

[@tonyathreet3567]

That would be awesome!

[@markrichards6863]

I love how the rows of seats are facing each other. It seams more friendly than what we have in most churches.

[@jeannelynskey6946]

I love to connect with you! One thing that surprised me was the light that is lit in the synagogue to honor God. We Catholics have a light that's always lit to honor the blessed sacrament in the tabernacle. It's wonderful how we're all alike in that way. Love to you and your family.

[@denisethorbjornsen7493]

Dear Sarah thank you for showing us your place of worship may God bless and keep you always

[@topBB5opinions]

I'm not Jewish but I love learning orthodox Jewish life

[@jolenenevins3761]

I love to connect with you. Thank you and your synagogue for the tour . I was surprised you have a smaller prayer room inside of the building. I love that you take the torah out and dance with it. I love that you are all a close community. I really enjoyed this video more than any other. Thank you again for letting us enjoy such an intimate part of your life.

[@ashnichole8565]

[@francinesauvenier2758]

Wowww very interesting today !!

[@frumitup]

Thank you ❤️❤️❤️I cannot wait to see you at the premiere

[@ChelsAly]

I'm Ashkenazi and I've been conservative my whole life. I absolutely love your channel because I've always wondered what it would be like to be orthodox. And the synagogue where I grew up is becoming more modern orthodox. ❤❤❤

[@maddykrantz]

I am a reform Jew, but I love learning about other sects of my religion!

[@karunastar3084]

I Love to connect with YOU Miss Sara. 🤩 I’m so glad you are back!!!❤

[@frumitup]

Yay! Thank you!

[@adrianawilliamson7758]

The strong sense of belonging resonated with me; the tree of life, names on seats, lights for those who have passed. It’s such a beautiful tradition.

[@HugeRademaker]

I love to connect with you. Thank you for the time you spend on sharing our beautiful Jewish life to the outside world. Education is key! Shabbat shalom from The Netherlands.

[@toluasaolu]

The fact that every detail was planned purposefully, the stairs for example is so beautiful and I loved the gallery for the women. I love to connect with you. Thank you Sara for bringing us along in this very personal journey. This synagogue is so beautiful

[@pandangy4077]

This synagogue is very beautiful and well maintained! Thank you for this virtual visit !

[@Contessa6363]

Thank you for sharing your beautiful synagogue! Much love and light to everyone in the community ❤️🕊️❤️

[@RickJoly]

Thank you for taking the mystery of the interior of your Synagogue away for me, I most enjoyed the videos you present. They dispel the mysteries and complexities of Orthodox Jewish life and I truly appreciate that. Shalom.
