I am an Arab from Yemen n we had Yemenite Jewish neighbors. They were the best neighbors you can have. They were very religous and very respected people, and had class. I sure miss them. Sad that after over 2000 years in Yemen, they are no longer there. 😔
@@MariaSanchez-kg2flbut genetically they are very distinct. They are more alike to each other than they are to their local neighbors.
@@MehWhatever99what does that matter? Haha.
The Houtis forced the last 13 Jews to lave Yemen. Although, there might be one last Jew still living there.
@@MehWhatever99they are the original Jews…many Ashkenazis converted from pagan tribes like in. Poland and Hungary
@@sageresthere are still a few families there and they are not probleomw it’s houuthi..the war was just getting to close
Really inspiring about learning and obligation.
And we that are coming from Sepharad or Ashkenaz think sometimes it's difficult. Yemenites are the most accurate example of ancient Israelites.
They weren’t sopahardic they have their own system, Bardem converting to Sephardic, 1920s in mass thanks to Zionist efforts

As a Muslim, I can confirm that Yemen is a great hub for religious knowledge. Great Muslim scholars have come from there like Habib Umar.
Amazing history.
Interesting... Yemeni Muslims are also known to be very zealous, genuine and kind hearted.
Amazing devout hard- working ancient community. Such a pity the tradition has come to an end in Yemen! I know there's a thriving yemenite community in Israel but even by the time the first arrivals had children , they were immersed in a programme of a new Israeli identity and modern hebrew, both of which were exclusively Ashkenazi. Yes, there is pride in their yemenite culture , but they have almost totally become absorbed in the official culture . It would be so nice one day if they could return to yemen in peace and safety. I'm Muslim by the way and find Yemeni and mizrahim culture fascinating and at the sane time sad for its demise almost
The muslim of yemen force them to live that country they was murdered and forced to cover to islam. Many of the yemen jews fleed to UK, USA, even Emirates Kingdom and Israel.
Whats the background music name ?
"Rashi" is not "translation" AT ALL. 1:11.
It is a commentary.
Luna Lovegood can do this too.
I really hope the Yemeni Jewish theory of education gets picked up by our teachers' colleges. It works very well.
Actually, Zilberman schools use that technique, but in Ashkenazi pronunciation. Rav Ben Tziyon Mutzafi's school in Jerusalem has in Sefaradi pronunciation. There is also a Yemenite school like that in Jerusalem, I think it's Mevo Temon or something similar. As a teacher in Jerusalem, I've noticed that Yemenite kids are better cantors & speakers because of daily practice with their mori as well as reading from the Torah DURING PUBLIC PRAYER at the synagogue as young as age 4 (!!!) and at a later age, maybe 5 onward, publicly reciting Onqelus' Aramaic translation after every Biblical verse read by the Torah reader's reading. Learning happens visually, audio & kinetically which is exactly the way the mori teaches since learners SEE & HEAR the text as well as simultaneously make the HAND MOVEMENTS that dictate the parsing & particular trope chants.
How to respect of believe the rulings of God if he/she is not Jew.. I mean monotheist but Muslim, Mandaean, Yazidi,Druze, Bahai etc. What is there eternity after death and resurrection to the day of Judgment?
Of course there is eternity for those of other faiths. As long as you follow the Seven Laws of Noah and are a good person - you have a place.
@@JewishUnityDiversity It is forbidden to uphold an innovated religion that people introduced after Mount Sinai.
@@hrvatskinoahid1048 by your logic, any sect of Judaism would fall into idolatry just because "people introduced it". But we know it's not true.
Islam is the truth Ibrahim was a Muslim not a jew all prophets were actualy Muslims and you guys know that May Allah guide you to Islam @@JewishUnityDiversity
Shame on you your Muslim and asking this guys about the hereafter you should give them dawah invitation. To Islam the truth instead of cheering there disbelive
make all the kids study the torah and you too can make you country backwards again
We reverted to Islam..
They took that from Yemeni people when reading The Holy Quran...
The Coran was Wrighted 600 years ago. The Yemen Jews was living there almost 2000 years ago. So.
Yes but Muslims developed a style of memorizing Quran.
@@guadalupeleon8775doesn't matter, that's muslim style of learning. you see that jews under muslims have other practices than jews under christians.
The Yemenite Jews arrived in Yemen since the days of the First Temple when the Queen of Sheba was in contact with King Solomon. Islam was created later, the Jews do not need to learn anything from the students because they are the teachers
@@Mik306 this is ridiculous The Prophets are of one religion
