13 Principles of Jewish Faith, Explained

Maimonides, one of the greatest codifiers of Torah law and giants of Jewish philosophy, he formulated a list of the thirteen principles of Jewish faith. Or, as he described them: Judaism’s fundamental truths and very foundation.
This video was produced for Lesson 2 of This Can Happen, a course by the Rohr Jewish Learning Institute.

I approve of, and rock with,all the thirteen principles as laid out by Maimonides. Baruch HaShem and Shabbat Shalom. Amein.

[@syedabdulwahidsohaily493]

Very true indeed, God Bless Muslims Jews and Christians Amen.

[@danielbreslow4959]

G-d made all of us. Jews and Moslems are cousins going back to Abraham.

[@majidamd2375]

Shalom all I Love Jews

[@heribertorivera6519]

Thanks a lot for sharing this information. It is amazing how clear you explained everything in 4 minutes. You made it simple and understandable. God BLESS everyone 🙏

[@susanadiasjohnson457]

Phenomenal video. Magnificent job of explaining the basics. Totally clear.

[@liaquathashim4768]

These are almost the same beliefs of a practicing Muslim. Thank you for this information.

[@okhuibutala1640]

Thank you from Minnesota 🇺🇸🙏

[@victorianoah6572]

Absolutely a trusted foundation of faith. Thanks for posting.

[@zakirazak5812]

Great intro video for those who wants to understand Judaism. Good work.

[@mmgreen31]

An interesting thing about Maimonides and of some ‘heavy hitters’ of later eras, such as the ‘Vilna Gaon’, which is rejected by many in the Haredi community such as the Satmar, is their encouragement to study the Greek philosophers, and top mathematicians and scientists of the ancient and contemporary world. Maimonides believed that the study of logic, science, and nature also reveals G-d’s truths.

[@afzalazam1339]

As a Muslim, as far as I know Islam, I agree with all the principal. These are the same as in Quran. We Muslims have very high regards for Moses ( We say him Prophet Musa). Why don't we focus on the similarities of Abrahamic religion rather than focus on minute differences.

[@mdnazmusshahid4827]

This is very similar to muslim belief. so why we fight? we r just cousins. spread love for everyone

[@nabinas4529]

Excellently explained.. All religions are agreed the same points, even people 'are understanding differently.

[@erikpeterson25]

Thanks....this was informative and not known to me Best

[@jasjas3642]

Very similar to Islam! It’s sad what divides us is politics today 🙁

[@monoecumsemper]

It is important to teach people(s) worldwide what Jewish Katechism is about for them to learn. Great video. Continue your brilliant job.

[@NemesisEn4cer]

Was, is and is to come. Is more than we know, presently. Well said.

[@checomrade2481]

Its similar to Islam peace be upon both prophets

[@eddiemonesti5671]

Love it. Love Israel from Dominican republic.

[@MijSnev]

Great video!

[@fuadahmed966]

Very informative!! We should obey & belief as stated above.

[@myJLI]

[@ynzmadeleine]

[@akbarbracho5534]

[@leo-unddieAnderen]

Thank you for the teaching.

[@myJLI]

Thanks for watching!

[@nakhudamohammed9619]

Most of the concept of Judaism and Islam resembles

[@stevefaure415]

Very interesting and profound stuff. It's odd and wonderful though, the first five principles are all very close to laws of physics, just with slightly different language.

[@kazuza9]

Love this video. Salam

[@dzaki8688]

Not very different for us Muslims :)

[@aaronwalterryse4281]

Great video. I learned about this channel thru a friend and have now subscribed. My friend's notifications said there was recently a video put about about the halachic understanding of the death penalty. That video seems to be gone as I can't find it or maybe I'm not looking in the right place? I hope to find it soon or if it was deleted I hope it returns. This is a great channel I can see already. I look forward to going through the catalogue of videos and seeing new videos.

[@exiledhebrew1994]

Certainly; there is no other G-d among Yshrael but Hashem

[@alal8172]

Absolute truth.❤

[@lovegirls131415]

I

[@haqiqatkibatt4764]

It is exactly similar to Islam .

[@_N0_0ne]

Thank you

[@Michael.Yousef]

Amazing

[@sabaffira]

If I believe in all of those, does that make me a Jew?

[@TheGourmetHusband]

If the next world is the goal then why come back. Do we not experience perfection when moving on. And even if we do then how can there be 2 different perceptions of perfect? Does perfection still lack experience?

[@jez8258]

The next world is not the goal, but just one part of the journey. This world is actually more esteemed by the righteous for only in this world can good deeds be done....in the next world there is no choice and no performance of the commandments....

[@JaneDoe-ij4ls]

Thank you♥️✡️🙏

[@TheOneWorldGovernment]

Sir/Madam, Please make Video on Noahide Laws.

[@danielbreslow4959]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/r57PZX2ca6Z9hdU

[@danielbreslow4959]

You may also simply type Noahide Laws in the search area.

[@WorldlyBudget]

What does it mean to "actively build the perfected world of the Messianic Era"?

[@levi7187]

Thank you!

[@sarahabraham6155]

❤️❤️❤️

[@carlmackeigan4328]

Thanks

[@mirrorreflection3479]

Why is the rabbi dressed like a Muslim

[@gondal480]

Almost same kind of beliefs as Muslam have.

[@Avbait-t2u]

So much more complex and developped in Hebrew than these simple phrases...

[@dameech6697]

That feeling when you tell your family your a Jew and then they try and make you a Christian Jew instead.

[@edgardocarrasquillo9]

Love it. Gracias

[@fahimashraf5129]

Don't the jews have to keep fast & pray regularly like Muslim?

[@QURESHSHEHABI]

Very similar to Islam

[@Anonymous-ec8xk]

This is just like Islam!😮

[@farhanahmed-wl3vv]

Nice.

[@profprabirkumarpattnaik7088]

Excellent

[@nikhilgeorge6071]

🙏🙏🙏

[@edwinmaina3746]

I have issues with number 3 and number 12. Consider praying for more revelation about them.

[@stevesmith4901]

There was no mention of heaven and hell. Is heaven and hell not part of Jewish faith?

[@shirah6228]

it is but its not one of the thirteen principles of faith

[@mdnazmusshahid4827]

Reward and punishment is in heaven and hell

[@c.m.b.7567]

nope it isnt, we believe that we are put on this earth to fulfill a mission to repair the world and to bring heaven down to earth. the bible makes it clear that there is an afterlife, but what it is like is not important because what's most important to us is the life we are living now.

[@muhammadharun5768]

I guess rewards and punishment meant for that

[@himsagar4005]

I want to know too.

[@issackmoha6636]

Similar to muslim 100%

[@ostrich.222]

Unbelievable .... It's 90 •|• same as Islam

[@mattjohnson9753]

What about when God manifested himself in physical form to Moses as a Talking Burning Plant?

[@GrowthWisdomKnowledge]

❤❤❤

[@benjamingoldman]

[@gangstalker]

Lol

[@johannesdekoning9521]

So wonderful and true! He was only blind at one spot. The Messiah had already come.

[@tubester4567]

Why didnt god just make a perfected world from the start??

[@RKMalo13]

Great video!

[@lizatab]

Thank you
