The depiction of Israel's marriage to Hashem is very clever and explanatory, my question is the following: I, as only invited to the wedding, (honestly I feel a little jealous of this), in addition to following the 7 Noahide laws what can I do to serve Hashem and how can I see his power in my life. How do I know I'm on the right path ??? thanks to those who want to answer me ...

Dear Rabbi. I am not sure if you are monitoring the comments. In case you are monitoring the comments, I would request you to answer one of the questions which popped up while you explained the terms Yachid and Echad We see that in the creation story of Genesis 1:26 the words are coming out of Elohim (Plural) in which he says "Let US make man in OUR image". Clearly, the plurality in HaShem existed already before the creation of mankind. So how do you reconcile the premise that he was Yachid at that time? From what I see, he was Echad already then.

@@IngmarSweep Shema Yisrael Yahweh Eloheinu Yahweh Echad A literal translation of the above would be: "Hear, O Israel; Yahweh [is] our Gods, Yahweh is a Unity." The Hebrew word Eloheinu, which we translated as "our Gods," is the 1st person plural declension of Elohim. Elohim, as most people know, is a plural noun which is regularly translated as God when referring to the one and only God, Yahweh. One Reformed Jewish source made the following interesting claim regarding this specific word: Eloheinu is the first-person plural possessive form of the Hebrew noun Elohim, which is translated "God" but literally means "our God." Yet strangely, this plural noun is virtually always translated as a singular. Our mystics understood this to be the One manifesting as the many. (Lev Sham Tov, "Life At Its Highest" by Ted Falcon as seen in Reform Jewish Magazine; source; bold and underline emphasis ours) "Echad" Implies a unification with another. If it should have been as the modern Jewish interpretation it should have been "Yachid" in Deut 6:4. "Yachid" in the original text translates as "the only one," or the "numerical one (1)," pretty much translates to solely, or only. "Echad" is significantly different. As opposed to "Yachid" meaning "the only one," "Echad" most closely means "one." More like "that one" of a group. "Echad" implies that there is another or one that is with or united and unified. "Therefore a man shall leave his father and his mother and hold fast to his wife, and they shall become one flesh (basar echad)." Genesis 2:24 "Then Joseph said to Pharaoh, ‘The dreams of Pharaoh are one (echad); God has revealed to Pharaoh what he is about to do. The seven good cows are seven years, and the seven good ears are seven years; the dreams are one (echad).’" Genesis 41:25-26

Hi G P Sam, the word Elohim has two meanings. One is judges (when referring to men), but here it's one of several names of Hashem. The "let us" was referring to the angels who are Hashem's servants. Also, in Gematria, Elohim is equivalent to HaTeva (Nature in hebrew). So Elohim is a name that is used for the natural order of things. The name consisting of the hebrew letters of Yud and Hey and Vav and Hey is the name used when Hashem has to supercede the natural order of things (break his own rules - see 10 plagues of Egypt as an example).

Did or would God really say I am the Creator god and I don't like it...I don't want to be the only thing I want someone else also, as the rabbi informs us, beginning at 15: 40? Is what God was basically saying? If this interpretation is in anyway correct then God is not self reliant. He is not perfect. Accordingly, then God created the world and humanity because he did not want to be alone. Poor sad God! However, there is another fascinating point to this supposition and that is that God had no choice in his own existence-of being a solitary entity. And if God had no choice in his existence then something else is responsible for his existence. And the merry round continues...

The LDS (Mormons) think G-d lives on the planet Kolob. This is idolatry. To claim we can accurately describe G-d as having even a single hair is also idolatry. When it says G-d created man in his likeness, it means in the spiritual likeness. To think otherwise is hubris of the worst sort. Rabbi Friedman, I deeply enjoy your talks. You totally rock. For years, I wanted to convert to Judaism, only to run into serious and poisonous ethnocentrism and outright racism. Sacramento's Orthodox rabbi was the worst. It must be hell to be as spiritually stiff as that guy. Anyhow... thank you always for your humor, humility and above all, sharing your thoughts with all people, even us lower-than-dogs goys.

Perhaps god has seen something in us, some potential, while we are still stuck in practicing simple rules, god perhaps has hope for us that we will sooner or later develop, instead being servants to rites and traditions. Perhaps this is what Job realized after god showed him his creation and realized the first time that he was stuck in simply following rules and from that understanding spoke to god "teach me". Else this phrase "teach me" of Job does not make any sense, since god already admitted to him that he did all perfectly well when it came to following god words. God does not need us, reagardless if we try serving or not. But god might see something in us and for us we have not been ready for so far ...

Does this rabbi understand what it means to be a father? I believe that the parable of the Prodigal Son will clarify what it means to be a traditional Jew and a new Jew. The term Jew in my opinion it the Spirit of God within us when God created us and this is a reason for celebration and great responsibility. In the parable of the Prodigal Son the elder brother does not lose the right to the father’s estate although the elder son is jealous because the father ran out to greet his younger son kissed him and gave him his robe ,slaughtered a lamb and placed a ring on his finger. My question to all fathers is this, if you had 2 sons and the one who had left and suffered would you not greet him in a similar fashion? The problem arose because the elder son was jealous and in seeing the father’s joy and love when the lost son came home. God is not finite in who he loves just like any parent is not finite in their love for their children. Unfortunately this Rabbi plants the seed of Jewish superiority instead of humility. Has God not forgiven your transgressions as a nation, that’s because God is a father rather than a ruler . May God always bless and love your people.

Rabbi, when God created Adam he didn't create Adam as a Jew. Abraham was not Jewish either. To say that non-Jews are guests to the wedding of Jews and God is a very sad statement. God doesn't belong to the Jews. Jews belong to God just like non-Jews and every other thing in this world. The hate for the Jews is not because of the wedding, but the boastfulness of the bride and the implied rejection (of the non-Jews). I don't really like the wedding analogy. I understand that the Jewish God is the tribal God of the Jews and thus there is favoritism. The same is true with respect to all the other tribal Gods that human beings have created over the years. Tribalism is not very good rabbi. The hate between people comes from tribalism. God loves us, God wants to marry us and not you because you are only a guest because you do not belong to are tribe. This is what creates issues. Lets stop this tribalism.

First Rabbi Friedman explains that we are not the real thing, God is the real thing by bringing the doll analogy. Then he explains God or God's thoughts (???) through our behaviour by trying to explain that humans are getting better persons if they are generous. If we are not the real thing how can we explain God or know what is God's intention? Another contradiction: First God is perfect ( he does not need) but then " he wanted", "he did not like" - which means he is not perfect. Perfect means also to be in a "zen state". Then comes the analogy "to be one with" (marriage) and that this is what makes U perfect - but again - this is the explanation from a human point of view and since we are not the real thing this is not a valid explanation. It is just an assumption and of course, it sounds very nice - but it has no explanatory power. 19:37 - perfect question and I will make it a little "bigger": Why did God not just created another God or Gods? Should not be a problem for him since he is all-mighty. He would be not alone anymore and sad and his problems would have been solved at once. Or was this idea to simple? As the "not real thing" I got this idea immediately. Do not misunderstand me - I really like to listen to Rabbi Friedmann. Shalom from Hamburg.

Maybe because we are what god lacks. As the Rabbis mentions such perfection in any realm, this lacks limitation. We are running our lives on limits from the moment we are born, untill we die, which we use the fact that we are going to die, to use it to live meaningfully, while we're limited & oriented to fix limits(tragedies of life for example)

I so love your teaching, but today as I listen my heart was so saddened, coming to knowledge I’m not wanted by God, that I’m not wanted because I’m not Jewish. I will still listen to your teaching because the insight of living life are necessary to be ground, in time of chaos and fear.

As a jew, Yes you are. If he didn't love he wouldn't have create you. The only difference is that we discover him first so our responsability is greater. But you can be important too if you follow the seven law of noah.

I would like to make a comment on the part where you talk about the gentiles being happy for the Jews without being jealous. My view, as a Noahide gentile, is that the Jews are a special, blessed, and chosen people. However, being special and blessed is not always an easy thing. Keeping Kosher isn't easy, and that is probably the easiest part of being Jewish. Historically, God called on the Jews to literally fight giants in Canaan. King David, as the prototypical Jewish hero echoed this idea by fighting Goliath. More recently, the Jews have faced giant challenges in the holocaust, in trying to recreate Israel, and in dealing with antisemitism. Basically, it appears that G-d has chosen the Jewish people to be his champions to fight giant problems. Luckily for the rest of us, we don't have to do that. We can, and should, help the Jewish people to fight the world's gigantic problems, but we don't have to be on the front line. So, in my opinion, it is much easier to avoid being jealous when you understand that being chosen to be G-d's people also means being chosen to fight giants.

If you are worshipping a god with an actual physical arm, what does that make you? An idol worshiper. The G-d of Abraham Isaac & Jacob has no shape or form.

Do you think you control your life? Or maybe your life controls you? So....who controls your life if you don`t do it? If your control your life.... Why can't you remember what you "Do & said" Yesterday? Or what will you "Do & say" tomorrow/ Days after tomorrow? And if your Life control you... why don`t you accept that? What is the truth?
