Hello Becca i am from Singapore i am 40 years old i am a Muslim. Yes exactly u are absolutely right. That's was what i told Frieda i really learn a lot about the Jews from her channel. As a Muslim i think it is really useful for me to know more about the Jews cause there are similarities between the Jews and Muslim.

Dear Frieda, I myself am Lubavitch and I was very surprised to see a chassishe man who isn't, offering to help you bentch lulav and esrog. It was so nice!! I found out many years ago that Kloisenberg (excuse my spelling), doesn't allow women to do this mitzvah. I'm wondering if it's because they don't think women are obligated so they think it's a bracha livatoloh?! Anyway, so nice to see you branching out to other sects and other parts of Brooklyn.

Your channel is so interesting, I feel what is missing deep in your heart. I can feel this little pinch that makes your heart ache when you think about the past. But you are a bridge, and so half of you is still deeply there And I pray, that one day, you’ll feel again this sense of plenitude You are a real beam of sunshine Always smiling, and you know to ask the good questions. The issue of some rebbe being rescued by the whom who were destined to die, was very very important to ask, and having their real view about this issue was important to make it heard.

what a sweet man that gave you his lulav to shake. growing up, for me, the high point of the year, was when our chazen, at Shaarey Tefilo, in East Orange, NJ, an attorney by day, would chant the melody while really solemnly shaking the lulav in each of the 4 directions. I cant say why i loved that so much, something about the lulav itself, and the ritual, but it felt like the high point of the service, almost like the Kol Nidre or ever Yom Kippur, as it were. Thank you!

Very interesting. I noticed 2 things when the gentleman handed you the palm branch and the fruit. It appeared that he was consciously trying to avoid touching you - was that by design or am I reading too much into the interaction? Secondly, your close captioning altered the word Lord and God - was that a KZbin issue that you were skirting around?

Shaking the lulav in the sukkah is a kabbalistic custom, so is probably pretty common amongst Chasidim. Most non-chasidic Orthodox Jews though don't do that, and just shake it at shul or home.
