i don't normally comment on KZbin videos but speaking as a chassidic jew this has to be the greatest representation of the chassidic people i have ever seen by a long shot because a. you let them do the talking without mixing in the worlds opinion b. it wasn't just from one chassidic group but several and what they have in common but not getting caught up in the differences c. THE BEST PART letting chassidic woman explain why they live as they do and not dismissing them as suppressed and not being allowed to express themselves all in all AMAZINGLY DONE this is how any group should be represented.

thank you for seeing modesty this way! So many people say "modesty is spression' or "modesty is making rules by men, for women in order to control them".

One thing that bugs me about videos of the Chasidim is that they depict different sects as if they were the same. This one jumps constantly from one to the other while making no distinction. The two main sects are the Lubavivith and the Satmar. The Satmar have earlocks and beaver skin hats. The Labovovitch don't. The Lebvovitch try to convert other Jews. Because of this, they are more worldly because they associate with, and sometimes convert, secular Jews. Satmar do not do this. They are like urban Amish. They continue because of births, not conversions. These ultra-orthodox Chasidim are only a small percent of the Jewish population. There are a number of other sects, in order of from ore to less strict are the ultra-orthodox (Chasidim), Orthodox, conservative, and reformed. In addition, there are plenty of secular Jews, not very religious, or perhaps only celebrating the major holidays, who, regardless still identify strongly as Jewish. Ironically, one of the things that keep even the secular Jews from completely assimilating is the anti-semites. As soon as a Jewish person starts to think that they are just like everybody else, along comes some large group of organized anti-semites to remind them that they are not.

[@maxhr1749]

Tim W I tend to agree with you somewhat. It depends on how they are raised. It became important to some Hasidim to separate as much as possible from secular life to remain strictly observant and continue cultural traditions. A lot of Jews whether Reformed, Conservative, Orthodox, Ultra Orthodox do some things all Jewish families do such as observe High Holy Days, have challah (cholly) on Shabbos, go to Temple on Shabbos, or speak at least some Yiddish. The more observant do tend to think they are “right” and this can be found in any of the sects but especially Hasidim. I don’t want to disparage their practices, because it is very interesting from a cultural aspect, and they’ve got some good food. That being said, the women in these videos must’ve had some differences in how they were raised to speak so freely about it. The thing about sex and worshipping women isn’t as common as they make it seem. Not all men care to be pleasing their wives, that lady just happens to have a husband who does. Basically to group Jews into one tiny box is wrong. They’re as varied as any population. To deny though that there’s a feeling of superiority though is completely wrong like the person commenting before kind of suggests you are doing. There is that feeling. Do I blame them? Not really. For what Jews have endured is ongoing whether people recognize it or not. There is still a fear of persecution. I feel like that is one reason for this ultra religiousness.

[@maxhr1749]

12.18.2016 YUMA I am NOT trying to provoke you. I find it interesting that you are talking about how the LGBTQ population force us to use certain pronouns but tell Tim he is completely wrong about Hasidim. First, it makes you sound like you don’t support the LGBTQ community. Second, it makes you sound like you don’t know much about Hasidim. This IS a positive video, I agree. I do like to see this side shown to educate people, but they aren’t all friendly and open like this. Most that I’ve experienced have been short or standoffish towards me. I came from a Jewish funeral for my FIL in an Ulra Orthodox neighborhood and went into a Kosher place for falafel. I’m completely covered in dark gray and black as the women wear, but I was treated very coldly and suspiciously. Like who is this? I am only a small percentage of Jewish blood and have converted. My kids are Reformed Jews, but since we don’t practice the same, it’s coldness towards us. I am not like that. This is only one example. Do you live near a community? It’s not open like this towards others for the most part. I’m not saying all Hasidim are like this , but based on my experiences they aren’t outwardly friendly overall. There is strife between their community and other Jews due to a feeling of superiority. Sorry but it’s true. The Kyrias Joel community (not the only one doing this) in Orange County had widespread Covid-19 and were not listening to the lockdown advisement stating religious reasons. No religion should be above this. Other Jews are self-isolating and having online temple. I don’t think crimes should be committed against them though. There’s been a rise in NYC of hate crimes against them. This is wrong and part of the reason many keep to themselves. Other religions can be like this also. I feel like they’d obviously rather be around people who understand them and support their lifestyle. I support it as long as women aren’t being oppressed. It seems that some aren’t. My 100% Jewish husband who speaks Yiddish, Hebrew, and observes Shabbos even calls them a cult. Our Orthodox friends call it a cult. You have a right to your opinion and to enjoy this video. I did enjoy it. It’s not so cut and dry as you are stating it and it isn’t as cut and dry as how Tim is stating it. They are not trying to convert us, but they definitely have opinions about us. You may not like some of them.

Haha, it’s because it’s nothing to do with modesty. The idea is that the woman’s hair undergoes a complete spiritual change when she marries. It’s not that it’s sexy and reserved only for her husband; it’s that it’s HOLY and for her closest family only. Women used to exclusively wear scarves when they married but in Chabad (and probably some other sects), the Rebbe decided that having to wear a scarf which is troublesome and not so pretty would put women off fulfilling the mitzvah (commandment) of covering their hair. He thought that being allowed to wear a wig would encourage married women to want to cover their hair. Nothing to do with modesty so not really much of a loophole. Shalom aleichem from England ✌️

Increases peace for whom? Not for many. This is a very rose colored glasses view of Judaism. The lovely music in the background. The peaceful gentle manner of speaking. There is another side that is not being represented. Ask the people who were displaced from their land by the Jews in what once was Palestine. The jews won it fair and square, through violence. Not by peace. Let's be honest. There is apartheid in Israel, same as SA.

The thing I love about the Jews is they don't try and hoist their religion on to anyone else, unlike the Christians & Muslims.

[@eliyasara9786]

so true! I'm Jewish, and we believe that if you are a Jew, you are born with a Jewish soul, and nothing can change that. So, the concept of making a Gentile (someone who is not Jewish) into a Jew, makes no sense, because they don't have a Jewish soul. Also, another interesting fact you could tell your friends is that when a Gentile applies to convert to Judaism, they are told "no, it's not for you" three times. If they come back a fourth time (or sometimes more) only THEN can they convert (which takes about 2 years) so this means that we only want people who are dedicated and committed to our laws and way of life.

[@frosturation2474]

@tirapalla what do you mean?

[@youruncle2916]

Well, it's technically an ethnocentric religion. Its meant not just for one race, but technically one family of people, all decendent from Jacob who became Isreal. You can convert if you're not born into it, but it's not really encouraged. Where as in Islam and Christianity, race isn't a factor, and beleivers in those religions genuinely believe that people who don't believe will suffer for it in the afterlife, so their evangelism comes from a place of altruism, not overbearing conformity.

When boys reach age 13 they start wearing some of the garments. This is also when they accept upon themselves the commandments. (Bar mitzvah) They prepare for it and while they do they also go through what their hat and other garments will mean to them. For example, there are quite a few different hats and a boy will decide that he wants to wear that specific one. The boys are very proud of their hats and count down the days until they begin wearing them. It isn't a mindless decision, it's months of preparation beforehand

My Jewish Victorian English Grandfather David came from an Orthodox Jewish background . He rejected it and married out. In many, many ways he was a Victorian rebel. In many, many ways I do admire Orthodox Hasidic Jews. In London in Stamford Hill the Orthodox Jewish community there is under a kind of siege of hostility. You need to be a strong man or woman to live an Orthodox Jewish life-style. My Grandfather David perhaps was not so strong. He married a Gentile but never converted to his RC wife's religious beliefs. I remember my Grandfather on his death-bed in a hospital. He had suffered a series of strokes over perhaps the last four years of his life and all he did as he died was to stare at the open door of his hospital ward. He was silent.

Ruchama Staples Hi Ruchama, thank you so much for your reply. Yes I know about Rabbi Singer's lecture. It's too late for me, Ruchama, I have already met the Messiah. May I encourage you to read for yourself this chapter and you can see that it is clearly speaking of a man. But not just any man. Yeshua is G-d in the flesh and fulfills every prophecy spoken in the Tanakh. Lev 17:11 There is no remission of sins without the shedding the blood. Yeshua was the final payment ~ the LAMB of G-d!! It's all about the blood like Moses had to put on the doorpost and the death angel passed by ONLY if there was the blood. Ruchama, please ask HA'SHEM to tell you if I speak the truth or not. Are you aware how many Jewish people have come to know their Messiah! We are without hope without believing in HIM. HE, the ONE who loves you and died for you ~ a crucifixion, the worst and most humiliating painful death is coming back soon to judge the nations. He first came as a LAMB to the slaughter and he finished HIS task for sins but HE is coming back as the LION of the Tribe of Judah. Yes, See Gen 49:10 ~ The scepter will not depart from Judah. Yeshua is from tribe of Judah. Micah 5:2 ~ would be born in Bethlehem ~ He was born there! Please check for yourself as people are blinded by truth and then teach from this blindness. Find HIM, Ruchama, HE is all over the Tanakh if you seek for HIM ~ HE will be found!! Shalom and please write anytime!

[@walleras]

Susan Reynolds We do not need blessings in the name of an idol. Adonai Echad

[@JesusSilva-di9lj]

@@walleras It may be that the name Jesus is an idol but His real Name is as His Father's: יהוה YHVH If you only knew the meaning of Adonai echad. Here is what the Hebrew Bible says about the word אחד ("echad"): And אלהים (God: literally Gods) called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day. Morning and evening were the first day (אֶחָֽד echad). Why the first day? 'Cause there are more days. A day has two parts: Day and Night. Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh. And they shall be one flesh (אחד echad). This explains why a man leaves his father and mother and is joined to his wife, and the two are united into one. When a man and a woman are joined, they are one flesh. And the LORD said, Behold, the people is one, and they have all one language; and this they begin to do: and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do. And Behold, the people is one (אחד echad). And now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do. Deuteronomy 6:4 has the word אחד echad, when talking about who God is: שמע ישראל יהוה אלהינו יהוה ׀ אחד ׃ : echad (HVHY) יהוה ’ĕ·lō·hê·nū (HVHY) יהוה yiś·rā·’êl; šə·ma‘ Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one (אחד echad) LORD: The very last word in the sh’ma is the Hebrew word echad. That word is rendered as “one” in most English translations of the Bible. That word echad refers to a “compound unity”. In other words, echad refers to one group, which contains multiple members. For example, echad means “one” as in “one baseball team”; as opposed to “one” as in “one chair”. So, the sh’ma could be translated this way: “Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is a compound unity. There is only one יהוה (YHVH): one יהוה (YHVH), the Father, one יהוה (YHVH), the Son and one יהוה (YHVH), the Holy Ghost. Interestingly, Jesus himself also recited the sh’ma. Note the following passage: Mark 12:28-30 (ESV): 28 And one of the scribes came up and heard them disputing with one another, and seeing that he answered them well, asked him, “Which commandment is the most important of all?” 29 Jesus answered, “The most important is, ‘Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one. 30 And you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’

[@walleras]

Jesus Silva one can mean a compound unity but it also cant. Echad is the same way. www.biblicalunitarian.com/100-scriptural-arguments-for-the-unitarian-faith This is a Christin sight so I think it will speak to you more. The fact is you do defensive rather then offensive. You say this can mean instead of this says. No where does the Tanakh say three in one. No prophet told us in explicit terms. Instead the opposite is true. But silly idolaters like you are unable to understand Torah. And dont say the tetragram. Its holy.

[@termination9353]

"As with Christians, tradition is a way to get closer to and stay close to God." Mark 7:7-9 Howbeit in vain do they worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men. 8 For laying aside the commandment of God, ye hold the tradition of men, as the washing of pots and cups: and many other such like things ye do. And he said unto them, Full well ye reject the commandment of God, that ye may keep your own tradition.

[@peachila]

Very interesting video. As a secular Jew it's great to see their point of view. While I agree that Judaism may be more egalitarian than some religions, it is not at all feminist. Especially not the Satmar community and other strict sects - they teach girls to aspire to be mothers only, that that is their main value in life. The most telling thing - Jewish men say every morning in their prayer "thank You god, for not making me a woman".

[@PomegranateStaindGrn]

I’ve heard different interpretations of the morning prayer; one of which was simply the idea that not being a woman gives men opportunity to fulfill mitzvot women are not commanded to observe thus more about the relationship to HaShem than about not being a woman. Of course, I am an atheist so it’s of no consequence to me either way. 😏

[@faturechi]

Only someone who knows almost nothing about Judaism will say that about that blessing. But I remember being so ignorant, so I don't blame you.

[@gb2850]

Well actually that is the interpretation. They are thankful for the extra mitzvot which women were exempt from. Also to the person saying satmar women are raised to only be mothers- #1 plenty of satmar women are entrepneurs running their own businesses within a he community. #2 what’s wrong with aspiring to be a mother. Judaism values motherhood. Jusdaism values the work put into family way more than what you do for a living. Both for men and women. Feminism, though it gave women many rights and had many good points, made one very big mistake. It told women That to have any value you had to be like a man. Why are traditionally male roles more valuable than female roles. The woman in Judaism is seen as the foundation of the home, family etc and is considered the protector of the continuation of our people in all areas including religion, culture, etc. satmar women value their roles. And yes they have jobs and work. But if they don’t have to they are happy. And of course some people won’t be happy. Same as all tue secular people in the world who were unhappy in their secular lives a found a religion that spoke to them. Secularism is actually a religion unto itself nowadays. And unfortunately many are very very very intolerant and judgmental. Judaism believes that if you are a good person, believe in g-d , follow the laws of your land you go to heaven. That is why we don’t try to convert people. We are tolerant of you. Why can’t you be tolerant of us
