WHY JESUS DID NO’T HAVE TO DIE to Atone for Sins - Sin, Atonement and Blood Sacrifice - Rabbi Skobac

[@jasonchavez320]

Every Christian should watch this. Christianity has so many holes, and they're huge. How can a Christian not see them, just mind blowing.

[@mreass22]

i was born and raised christian.. my entire life i have left each week from church with more questions than answers and never had them answered to me in a way that makes sense. it caused me to question not only my faith but religion in general. i thought how can something with so much unclearity and so broadly taught be correct and accurate.. but i didnt wanna abandon god all together so i decided to trace the roots of my religion.. since i have been listening to this and many other rabbis all my answers have been clearly answered and makes sense. i have no doubts any more and no questions.. i have finally been learning the right way to praise g-d and christians imo have basically picked and choosed what to believe in and made up the rest misquoting the torah to justify themselves

[@sanddollar808]

I'm so glad I found you, Rabbi. You are such an outstanding teacher. You're lectures are never boring. Coming out of 56 years in the Church, one of the things I love is your humility and the depth of your knowledge. Christian pastors tend to just preach and teach from what speaks to their emotions and what was passed down from a previous generation. Anytime I asked a question that indicated I could be a threat or a heretic I was thrown out of the church. I've been thrown out of five churches and one denomination. Now, thanks to teachers like you, I realize I was just waking up to the truth. I'm glad I kept asking, and I thank God for you. You've answered all my questions and you've never thrown me out of class. I've attended them all:)

[@tammiw1234]

I am a Christian. Glad to watch. What is missing for me in this video is: Why did/do the Jews perform sacrifices in the first place? AND Why was it okay to have some sacrifices that required blood and others that did not? And if forgiveness was given freely and no sacrifices needed in the Jewish religion in the past and present, why expect the temple to be built in the future to start sacrifices up again? This video only raised more questions for me. And BTW I do not believe in the Trinity

[@ohevisrael8083]

Hi there I am not a Rabbi, just an observant Jewish soul. We had a Temple and sacrifices because G-d, our Creator commanded us to build for Him a Sanctuary. Every detail of the construction of the Mishkan, the portable Sanctuary worshipping G-d therein, is written down in the Torah. Our Creator gave the Torah, directly to the Children of Israel at Mount Sinai. It is an obligation upon us to fulfill our end of the Eternal Covenant which was entered into between our Creator and our father Abraham, which was sealed in our flesh via the Commandment concerning circumsion G-d commanded that every male of Bnei YIsrael / the Children of Israel MUST be circumcised on his 8th day of life. We cannot just bring a sacrifice in the Temple in Jerusalem right now, because it was destroyed by Titus. There was the son of Emperor Vespasian. When G-d brings about the Third Temple we will once again bring offerings to the Jerusalem Temple, at any such time as Hashem our G-d wishes to have us do so. We who keep the Covenant and happy to dwell in His House for the length of days.

[@23rdstreet23]

Good questions. This is a very good place to get your answers! Jews for Judaism has teachings you can watch and take notes and then study for yourself in the TaNaK. Glad you’re researching! The TaNaK is truth!

[@mrswinniepinnie]

I was a Christian until a year ago, until I met some Jews and discovered the Torah, which consumes me now. But unknown to me at the time much groundwork had been laid which I was completely unaware of to prepare me for that discovery, but one of the things that tilled my soil ready for that seed to find fertile ground was I started getting interested in end times prophecy in Scripture & began studying everything I could about it. Whole different pic than the xtians & muslims have! Zechariah 8:23

[@Tonithenightowl]

It's been difficult to realize we have been sold a lie which doesn't exist in the Jewish Bible. This truth has also given me a peace of mind I never had with Christianity. WHY? Bc Judaism makes sense and holds each individual responsible for their actions. We were told G-d would never forgive us without Jesus bc G_d can't bear our sinful nature. Nothing we could do, no amount of asking for forgiveness or trying to "make it right" matters. We are doomed regardless. This makes NO sense at all. it goes against EVERYTHING we teach out children about being a good human being and being accountable for what we do. Oddly when Jesus was asked how one could be saved... he said keep the Commandments. Now that I believe. The rest of it.... is Pauline doctrine which didn't even try to hide it's pagan roots.

[@gordmacdonald9711]

I'm an atheist. This guy is a wonderful scholar!.... interesting and completely engaging.

[@andre58089]

Thank you. i used to be a Christian for years but i realized how Christians make excuses to follow paganism and not the Commandments that Christ said he fulfilled.

[@raymond942]

As someone who does not belong to an abrahamic religion, whose told by supremecist Christians that “believe in Jesus or you be in hell”... it’s refreshing to get a different perspective on the Pauline-RomanoPagan christian cult...

[@TheSmithDorian]

Rabbi Skobac does a brilliant job in this series of cutting through the Christian fog that has developed over the last 2000 years.

[@joebhall5439]

Hello TheSmithDorian, I agree he does a brilliant job on cutting through fog. I may have to do some videos challenging some of his statements where he doesn't realize he's actually proving the Christian's points. The rabbi's re-translation of Isaiah actually does this. The messiah is coming to save the righteous. Hmmm. That kinda sounds like one of the seeds in Christianity's core. What do you think?

[@TrinityDesist]

Thank you very much Rabbi. I am Muslim and i learned a lot from you. אלוקים יברך אותך Peace!

[@joannao6325]

Thank you so much for this lecture. That was most helpful. I hope G-d forgives my sins and helps me start all over again. I'm so tired of this never giving me a break battle that takes place in my mind. The battle between reason (and being constantly drawn toward agnosticism) and G-d of Tanakh. I hope G-d has mercy on me and I'm finally at peace ( sooner rather than later).

[@klw12866]

im slowly waking up just has two messianic people call me evil cuz i belive torah but not yashua at this time....they freaked out on me and got very hatefull.. wow lot like christains,,, thank you for your vidios i recently found but also now have a freind who sent this to me today,, they ARE awake.. thank you shalom

[@salemslot777]

Thank you Im a Muslim and i hope for a peaceful co existence is there can ever be one..

[@TRUTHTEACHER2007]

Well finally someone's had the balls to say what I've been saying for the longest. I never understood why no one thought to look at Judaism and the Hebrew language to see what it actually says. What I know of Judaism and Hebrew couldn't even fill a thimble, but I could see there were major disconnects. Thank God I was able to put this behind me!

[@klw12866]

pruod owner of tanach got rid of new testament im watching this again cuz the first time i was in shock now i need to re-listen to many vidios ... thanks again Rabbi keep up the good work Shalom

[@popsxbox]

As a former Christian for most of my life and now a convert to Judaism I can see how coming from the outside in can only be accomplished by G-D and only G-D. If one takes the time to actually seek truth G-D will deliver truth but one has to be willing to accept it. Toda raba rebbi🙏 May hashem pour blessings upon you like water.

[@pawelmjw]

Truly enlightening fresh approach. As a Christian who is very close to becoming Messianic, I have a lot to think of. All my life I'm searching for God's truth. Thank you Rabbi. Dziękuję!

[@Avacenna]

Here's an atheist who loves rabbi skobac!!!

[@turbohawk]

Thank you! The Truth you set out here is so clear and life-giving! It also is so FREEING of the false doctrines of "sin" and how recompense is not as the Greek Testament'ers have taught for nearly 2000 years. It's also interesting that a very large majority of Greek Testament teachings are really just repackaged paganism. My hope and prayer is that each person chooses the ONE and ONLY God!

[@abowlofsalad8812]

Rabbi Scobak is the type of rabbi that atheists, Jews (including secular), Buddhists, and Christians enjoy. (Coming from a Half-Jew raised orthodox, but now I’m kinda mixed between Reform and Conservative though I still honor my tradition).

[@eyescandeceive]

Fascinating. Thank you for this post. I learned a lot. You have given me reason to rethink the concept of sacrificial atonement altogether. Peace be with you.

[@Nexus-ub4hs]

I have to admit, I’ve never quite understood this. Thank you for your explanation

[@changingego]

Thank you again Rabbi Mike. I do my part when meeting Jews who have left the God of their fathers to encourage them to return. Hashem has a very big heart.

[@donalddorsey6271]

JESUS dying to atone someone's sins is the most stupidest thing I've ever heard .

[@jumpoutatree]

It doesn't matter... my father is a hopeless born again Christian. I shared this video with him and he basically dismissed everything the Rabbi said and said that Skobac was poorly taught and didn't understand the Bible. I just shook my head. How anyone can listen to this Rabbi and come away with that impression is beyond me. My father didn't offer any substantial critique, just a bunch of ad hominem "blind Rabbis" crap.

[@ELMKTF]

Another excellent video. My eyes are opened. Christianity is pure blasphemy. It disgusts me to witness Christianity tainting and disfiguring G-d's words and teachings and leading many genuinely good people ashtray.

[@CitizenLutz]

Rabbi Skobac brings a clarity to what I refer to as the "Old Testament" that I haven't heard taught before. Well done.

[@daughterofjerusalem8483]

יישר כוח. כל הכבוד לך רבי! Rabbi, you are a brilliant teacher, with such personal humility and kindness. A joy to listen to you. PS I am a Jewish mom, Torah observant.

[@1SarahThereseThomas]

Im a Noahide and i agree with your statements about the christian people. thank you for this video and i hope for many blessings for you!

[@karling6953]

Ezekiel 45:22 Wow so that really nails it. So the Prince the Messiah himself will offer a sin offering when he arrives. Christianity is Totally collapsed. That profecy is the final end of christians claims for the need of the human sacrifice. It seems that loads of exchristians will convert to Judaisn or just leave religions alltogether.

[@sksman71]

This has been one of the reasons i stopped going to church. What is the point of attending church and waiting for Jesus to return when its already been over 2000 years.Plus there are so many christian doctrines and churches and so many English translations of the bible.Who could even know what truth is.I doubt we even have 60% of what is written.

[@christians.vs.illumination5005]

I think I am starting to see the truth...

Is a real pleasure to listen to this impecable arguments. I was rised as a christian but long time ago I began to question this human sacrifice if Jesus and me being born in sin! Thank you for postin it

[@phyllispollack1]

When I was in college, Jews for J were always trying to convert me. They threw all these verses at me and told me I could be a “completed” Jew, as if I was somehow incomplete. I just kept remembering “iEhad,”so none of it made sense.

[@beedubb7755]

Thank you Rabbi Skobac, I am greatful for your lessons.

[@ThatLDSGuy]

I left Christianity along time ago because I had serious issues with Jesus' "sacrifice". I get now why I was so against it. Wish I had been born Jewish.

[@bambinoesu]

Rabbi Skobac, can you do a teaching of the Holy Spirit according to the Hebrew/Jewish faith

[@josej.3921]

Nothing against Christianity, but nothing against using one's brains either :)

[@marymaratty9117]

I have listened and enjoyed this lesson. The Jewish people are Gods people but how would we have known God without Jesus? He epitomised the scapegoat. He laid down his life himself. His one act of love that we can understand.

[@patriciatreslove146]

+Mary Maratty I left the Church some time ago, because of anti semitism. so I have been searching for my way to G-D, because I am not Jewish, and found out that, we who were not Jew were the Gentiles, and that after the flood, G-D gave another commandment, from that I found that I could follow the Noahide laws. age 71 and I had no idea that G-D has given all of us a way to him. You can find the 7 laws of Noah on the internet, I hope that will help. Many Blessings

[@marymaratty9117]

Thankyou I will look.

[@JewsforJudaismCanada]

Check out Rabbi Skobac's lecuture on the Noachide Laws here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/a4CUp5hqfdhnhtE

[@Xcorgi]

As someone raisd christian I agree with the rabbi. If Jesus died fo atone for our sins or pay in advance if you will; then why do they always insist we pray for forgiveness of our sins? After all, we supposively "owe" him. I've always thought christianity was a joke. I get a lot of criticismm from my family for it too. They try to call me atheist but I tell them I believe in god but not Jesus then they say I'm impossible and I'm going to hell. Typical christian response.

[@Wolf.88]

Great message Rabbi Skobac. One thing I found incongruous with Christianity teaching was that Jesus was so apprehensive about dying and we are meant to be so upset that he was mocked.

[@javedsheikh6685]

Peace to the learned rabbi and all jewish brothers and sisters. The quran and the old testament speak as one. Do not be oppressors, be just, be charitable, seek forgiveness from your Lord God who created the heavens and earth. Believe in ONE God and do not associate partners with him. Muslims and Jews are brothers if they only were less head strong and were more humble, they would know this

[@mikebalding5315]

[@Mr_Chow_Man]

AN EYE OPENING VIDEO FOR CHRISTIANS

[@eyescandeceive]

that's easy! The Jewish people are better at explaining the First Testament because as a people they have been studying it for longer, and because more of their scholars have been studying it in the original language.

[@ijedfelix4839]

Thank you so much for this, it helps me as a christian to understand the truth.

[@AFROMATIONS]

After watching this a few times, I have gained a lot of knowledge to dispel the abusive theology that infuses all cultures--especially pagan practices--to influence others. It is a well crafted and attractive religion to those that do not want to take ownership of their own actions. I'd be nice to have someone else pay my bill of dept--sin--instead of me. This gives me freedom to do as I believe; I think this is called hedonism or anomia (Greek) lawlessness. They truly are in a dangerous practice.

[@DrunkenMastification]

But who is in dangerous practice, Christian?

[@AFROMATIONS]

If you believe that Gd would honor human sacrifice then you have major issues to work out--cognitive dissonance....

[@MrRhomas913]

If the animal sacrifices were not needed, why then did all the prophets keep doing them?

[@JewsforJudaismCanada]

He is not saying that animal sacrifices were not needed. They were actually an integral part of the process of teshuva-repentance. Just like a husband brings flowers to his wife. However, his point is that sacrifices ALONE do not suffice to bring atonement. There needs to be inner change through return-repentance.

[@rhomas913]

***** Thanks...but then if one can atone without sacrifice....that means that sacrifice is not needed for atonement...or is it that they were needed back then but are no longer needed now?

[@mrtruthforever]

Sacrifices served many purposes: 1. extracting financial payment, charity, as an act of contrition, to support the temple servants; 2. a means of increasing brotherhood among the people since for certain sacrifices, the food was shared with others 3. Instilling in people a reminder of the frailty & fleetingness of life and realization that a person may have committed sins whereby his life too may be terminated. 4, A rectification of a cultural phenomenon which was present among humanity and the Torah instituted humane means of executing the sacrifice and placed constraints as far as who may be allowed to do such a thing; etc., etc. The sacrifice does not atone without self-correction and certainly does not atone for intentional sin. That was just a distortion by later religions.

[@rabelad]

When the Temples were up and running it was in fulfillment of the commandments to sacrifice them. However, after both Temples were destroyed God allowed an acceptable substitution of prayer in place of sacrifices. This is explicitly stated in Hosea 14:2. If your Christian translation seems unclear about this matter it is due to the translators having been very uncomfortable about giving an honest and straightforward translation it would completely undermine the very Christian theology that they are out to promote. Anyway, Christians insist that Jesus was the substitute sacrifice after the Second Temple was destroyed. Problem with that that the First Temple was also destroyed - so where was Jesus to act as a substitute between the First and Second Temples? Why was his "saving grace" only extended after the destruction of the Second Temple and not for the First Temple as the same "problem" of having been unable to offer blood sacrifices was also in effect? The truth is that Christians have no answer for this as it is an insurmountable problem for Christian theology.

[@rabelad]

First, you failed to direct yourself to answering my question. Second, the Hebrew Bible, starting at Ezekiel 37:24 describes the messiah ("My servant David") to be the prince of the Jewish people forever who will also rebuild the Temple to stand forever. If that's supposed to be Jesus at his 2nd coming why did the text tell us that it will be David and not Jesus? (For that matter there's no prediction in the Hebrew Bible that the messiah will need a 2nd coming - it's only the NT that needs a 2nd coming to make up for Jesus who was a failed messiah, who didn't bring world peace and didn't rebuild the Temple.) That verse in Ezekiel says that he will reinstate all the observances of the Torah, rebuild the Temple and in it he would reinstate animal sin sacrifices (see also Ez 46:20). I couldn't help but notice that the bit about resumption of animal sin sacrifices goes completely contra the New Testament book of Hebrews 10:11-18. Third, I find it typical that when Christians assume they know it all they try to dissuade others from searching for the truth by threatening hellfire. That's a convenient tool to manipulate others from learning and expressing the truth. Christians often resort to fear-mongering and the threat of burning for eternity on Jesus' eternal BBQ. This is a common reaction by Christian missionaries especially when our Hebrew Bible goes against their foundational doctrines. Fourth, funny how Christians accuse us Jews of misreading OUR Bible when we read it in the original language, a language that we learn as our mother tongue here in Israel! Are you able to claim the same? Its a joke when a Christian tells ME that I don't know what MY Bible says when I can read the many details, nuances and subtleties in the original Hebrew that can not be translated into any other language! All the while the Christian missionary depends on translators who were not above biasing and even twisting their translations to fit their doctrines. Fortunately for you, Ezekiel chapter 37+ the translators were unable to fuzz the meaning of that book so it's pretty clear, even in Christian translations, about what God intends to do in the end-of-days. Wanna know what the Hebrew Bible really says? Go learn to fluently read Biblical Hebrew yourself and don't depend on anyone else telling you what it says and thereby foisting their doctrines on you. (BTW, don't try to translate Hebrew word-for-word with a lexicon as it doesn't work.)

[@ladonnarae3546]

This information is nothing short of astonishing. Is it that the "New Testament" writers were deliberately deceptive, or were they "quoting" the Tanakh from memory and getting it wrong?

[@paddygoes175]

It was probably a bit of both. Paul´s Jesus very likely didn´t exist. It´s also likely that the Jerusalem apostles didn´t teach or belileve that Jesus was god. Mark´s gospel has an ending that was added later. But what matters is that the Jews were right all along and many christians are now discovering this and also the beautify of Judaism and the Torah.

One thing I observe that might help is the difference between goodwill and suspicion. Where there is goodwill, people accept what one another say, and even have "aha" moments of sympathy and understanding. But where there is suspicion, there is doubt and disagreement, and no amount of logic can convince us.
