[@beldonhuang]

A great man, teacher, rabbi and role model. RIP Lord Jonathan Sacks

[@stuartkane9828]

Such a tragic loss for the world. His words and message reach beyond faith barriers and he was an inspiration to all.

[@TheQueenRulesAll]

I read his commentary on the portion every Shabbat. Fortunately in this era we will continue to be able to access his wisdom.

[@brucelevine6517]

I cant believe this happened the loss is inconsolable ❤

[@AnilaAli1]

What a man of wisdom! May Allah grant us the good fortune of follow his advice. Have a blessed Yom Kippur my Jewish friends. Feeling blessed!

[@bullfrog24260]

We are fortunate to have lived during Rabbi Sacks (ZY'A)'s time .. his massive presence in our lives has been amazing, and his passing has created a huge loss .. we are a poorer world without him ..

[@hmiles79]

We are going to miss you. A truly brilliant yet humble man. יהי זכרו ברוך

[@pc6994]

Thank You, Hakadosh Baruch Hu, who gave us, the mankind, the opportunity to hear and be inspired by the amazing teachings of Rabbi Sacks. I find absolutely respectful and grateful the fact that in every single lecture he gave he always mentioned the name of his wife, Elaine. Rabbi Sacks inspired me to do Tshuva and return to the path of Torah. This great man changed my life and, I'm sure, many lives around the world. Blessed be his memory in the world! Baruch Dayan emet.

A great man of clarity, brilliance and love for all of creation; he was indeed a living sanctification of G-d's Name. May his soul be at peace and continually ascend higher and higher until the resurrection of the dead.

[@kristine6996]

In my little, small we family of 6 persons he, the former Great Rabbi Jonathan Sacks died on the 31 fst birthday of my son. My son who gave this house in France to us, me and my other 2 children. This act was all inspired by an immense Jewish love I encountered in 2005 in Belgium. And now, on the 8 of november2020, in the midst of this historic pandemic and on the day of a shift of power in USA I express my utmost respect and admiration to the Great Chief Rabbi Jonathan Sacks. What a privilage it was to have been living during his lifetime and what a sorrow it is to have lost a man who brought light into dark times. ✨✡️✨

[@rogerlephoque3704]

I feel exactly as you do...

Rabbi Lord Sacks represents a big intelligence of our time!

Another wonderful lecture by rabbi Jonathan Sacks. He was a wonderful communicator and Orator and is deeply missed. In this lecture he talks of happiness and how to attain this. We live in a community,a society and we have busy lives. Do we stop to think of the other. or we are just for ourselves. Rabbi Jonathan Sacks gives examples of the ways one can change. It is true we are important but so is the other. Let us follow the lead of Rabbi Jonathan Sacks and consider the other thereby making a better world in which we live

What a tragic loss, we lost a light immeasurable in its strength and clarity. All that knowledge in one man, his traits , so humble. May his memory be a blessing

[@FayBoatfield]

May his memory be a blessing to all of us.

[@jftucker]

Our Rabbi Lord Sacks introduced me to Judaism long before I grasped the importance of his doing so. Listening to his works now, I wonder: who is my next Rabbi Sacks?

[@dkbrain3434]

Brilliant, as always. This may have been Rabbi Sacks’ last in-person speech. He is missed every day.

[@margueriteamaya3298]

Yes

[@generalmail5151]

Although Judaism was at the forefront of your mind you spoke for all humanity. Your teachings are the teachings of human life and consciousness. I for one will miss you dearly.

[@pamfeldman1284]

Wonderful man with a beautiful message for humanity

[@veritas5004]

Rabbi Sacks is a beacon of truth. What a privilege to be able to hear his clear message for our time.

[@bogyo66]

I thought beacon is not allowed...

[@hashplea9750]

I cry and cry to slowly understand, that Moreinu Harav Rav Sacks, will no longer be coming back, at a time, when world jewry and the world in general , need him so much.

[@farapipsqueek636]

Agree. And I am so impressed that just a few months before he died he was able to think of those with COVID. He is incredible.

[@correctenglish]

extra special, inspirational, powerful motivator. If leaders would only listen and learn from him.

[@jeanwagnersutkiewicz9847]

What a loss for humanity. May his memory be a blessing and an inspiration for us all.

[@goldashulkes1897]

Another wonderful lecture by rabbi Jonathan Sacks. He was a wonderful communicator and Orator In his lecture he spoke of the.

[@goldashulkes1897]

Another wonderful lecture by rabbi Jonathan Sacks. He spoke of COVIDSafe and the concept of I. We are in age of I-rather than we. If I am for myself who am I. Buying more than one needs in the supermarket leaves others without in these trying times. Rabbi Jonathan Sacks was a wonderful communicator and an inspiration to the World. Through his lectures books and podcasts. he. describes the how and why of Jews and Judaism and being together as a family on Shabbat or in communal prayer brings. happiness to the World. We live in a society ,a community. and share with others. One is important but a wave or smile to the other creates. Joy in the world

[@delphinezeitoun4069]

ברוך דיין האמת 😢 I admire how he made links between social and economic problems and our everlasting jewish values such as altruism. May his memory be a blessing for all of us!

[@dinab8073]

May he rest in peace he will be truly missed baruch Dayan haemet

[@kathymckimm1819]

Rabbi Sacks it's always a pleasure listening to you speak most enlightening.

[@lizgichora6472]

Phenomenal! Your Wisdom is ever so compulsory today.

[@rejoicennedi]

We love you Rabbi!😭

[@shusspryze2456]

What a beautiful person the world lost when he passed away.....

[@lakeboww]

Thank you for sharing. We really genuinely need more of him in this time of isolation and uncertainty.

[@dianaparadasuarez9704]

An inspiring talk and great 'food for thought', specially in these uncertain and troubling times where the importance of 'WE' beyond 'I' matters more than ever & can make a real difference....And where isolation is an everyday struggle in a world of limited social contact. My best wishes to everybody out there during these challenging times! Together we are stronger!

[@shelleysekula967]

Rabbi Jonathan Sacks is a lovely lecturer. His healthy society theory proposes that the social, economic and digital revolutions of the 60’s, 80’s and new Millenium have decoupled individuals from families, politics from policies, and self from society. He observes that we now worship the “selfie”, denigrating “we” and elevating “I”, ultimately encouraging loneliness and risk aversion. Lord Sacks eschews banning or cancelling people who disagree with us. Being respectful to those with divergent positions and taking risks is foundational to dialogue and progress.

[@ejb7969]

Listening to this on Mar 19, 2021 - exactly 1 year after he delivered this. Heartbreaking the brilliance, excellence, goodness, chassidut we lost. Did he sense the coming tsunami? (I think he did - in another talk on KZbin he gave in late 2019 or early 2020, he talked about the particular growth pattern of antisemitism in the UK and how it "must not spread to the US" or some similar phrase.) What would he have said about the Capitol riot? Qanon? Antimaskers? The huge increase in firearmed racism? If he has disciples, please may they come forward and pick up his trail before we lose sight of it! Or ... did G-D take him away from us for a reason? Very frightening to think about ...

[@annemariededekind6271]

Thank you Rabbi Sacks

[@FaiffGee]

Mau his memory bring joy and happiness to those he left behind.

[@madelynnovitsky9483]

I miss you Rabbi. 🔥

[@kipling1957]

Wonderful man. Would have loved to have heard a conversation between Jonathan Sacks and Jordan Peterson.

[@MoreChrist]

[@AVICommunications]

Good food for thought.

[@jacknusanporter5206]

He is so brilliant--but why such a small audience? I am shocked! Where did this take place?

[@bonnieyoung543]

ne more comment, I really like what you said about "safe space" at universities - I have taught at three major universities and now at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem, and I've always said true liberalism is the ability to discuss different views and even seek out different views with tolerance and intellectual honesty. With that, I expect you can respect my different view about President Trump.

[@sealchan1]

The questions in audience were perceptive and they show up the weaknesses in the speaker's argument. On one side there are people who want to preserve the white-only story of America, the male-only story...on the other we have people who want to open things up to all the people of America and, in fact, there is a great deal of weariness about being in one country vs another at all...we are the people of the Earth and our collective stories belong to all of us. We are flirting with a sea change where global citizenship is the only 'we' worth wanting any more.

concerning loneliness 9:14 I think a better front cover image would be 4 Jonathan Sacks in a huddle formation. I'm not sure if he is orthodox enough to be running around following the 'men / women no touching' rabbinical tradition. However, either way the huddle formation is still better for 4 is less lonely than 1.

[@Qumeric]

One of the reasons of reduced life expectancy in poor is delayed effect of smoking. Smoking rates peaked around 1973. Quite possibly a larger cause than loneliness (which is also an important cause).

It is easy for the man who is the chief Rabbi of a country, Britian, to lead a good life but there is only one position available and of course you have to tell people what they want to hear a lot of times.

Rabbi, have you ever simply asked G-d who the Mashiach is? Please ask Him to show you.

I consider him without equal as a public intellectual. I consider his tailor to be remiss. The jacket of his suit needs to be recalled forthwith to allow his tailor to let it out an inch or two....

[@rogerlephoque3704]

Thank you for upvoting my comment. I meant it in the spirit of fun - Rabbi Sacks had a terrific sense of humour! I take it that you know the news: he passed away 3-days ago. He was great man. I am quite devasted by the news. He was just 72.

Why did they let him die? We had to fight for his life!

Is he arguing here that we should lend an ear to racists and conspiracy theorist in our universities? Certainly we should only listen to those who can be consistent and coherent.

[@redsix5165]

I really love Rabbi Sacks but his take on competition is not correct. People compete for customers. To have a customer means that someone wants you to cooperate with them. I can excuse rabbi’s confusion on this matter because his thought pattern is prevalent in todays culture…but it just isnt true.

Please stop this. Its enough already. This man is not challenging you and the ancient tribes were actually many shades and genomes. Stop picking a fight with your brothers and sisters because if the God of Israel is your God then you should know that he is all-knowing and not the God of confusion. If you are a descendant from one of the tribes, so be it. You dont need to shout it at others or diminish their place to have yours.
