The rabbi's alcohol story cracked me up. I had almost the same experience when I was 8 or 9, except my grandfather had a can of beer, and instead of asking to taste, he just offered it to me, "Drink this," he mumbled. Grandpa was from Texas.
One sip almost made me sick. I never wanted to touch alcohol again.
As a born again Christian, I fully agree with you: the cross makes no sense. It only makes sense to those whom God has revealed it to. One person hears about a the cross and laughs, another hears about the cross and dedicates their entire existence to pleasing God. The saving grace of Jesus Christ has to be revealed to you otherwise it makes zero sense. What does a dead Jew have anything to do saving my sins? Thats exaclty what you will think if God hasnt revealed His Son to you.
So you have to believe it to believe it....
If I told you:
"The baby leprechaun in my closet is only visible to people who get permission to see it from daddy leprechaun in my bathroom cabinet.
If daddy leprechaun approves, he will make baby leprechaun visible to you."
You'd think I was crazy, no?
@@SkeptiCol_Vet Exactly. Thats why my old friends and some family members think I am crazy. 😅 But to those whom the Holy Spirit has drawn to Jesus, I make perfect sense. Thats the thing with spiritual things, they make no sense because they are spiritual and supernatural.
@@simphiwemarule2803 I think it's your imagination, im afraid.
@@simphiwemarule2803 And no one in the history of the earth has ever been mistaken about the supernatural.
@@SkeptiCol_Vet Dude, you are proving my point exactly
Jew says 'I've got a crazy story!"
Christian says "Here, hold my beer"
Baruch Hashem. Thank you Rabbi Singer for shedding light and for your continued efforts ❤
Rabbi your books and videos have changed my family’s life and we’ve come back home to Judaism. Thank you.
Awesome!
The whole family
Baruch Hashem!!! May He continue to bless you and give you much wisdom and courage, as you continue to learn His Truth with us!!!
@@ac8907 Lord of the rings also is quite good to read and you can glue it to the end of the Hebrew bible too.
@@johncrookston6111 literally the whole family at once. It’s a miracle.
@@ac8907 yes. The New Testament is not scripture for us. Attaching it to the end of the tanakh does not make it scripture. Sorry if that is upsetting but we’re Jews, we don’t accept it.
God impregnated a girl to give birth to himself, so he could eventurally die in a sacrifice to himself in order to apease his anger at us for the sins we committed due to the personal flaws that he built into us, and he made this sacrifice to save us from the punishment he planned to inflict on us. After God saved humanity from his vengence with his sacrifice, he then continued to burn nearly everyone in Hellfire, and he does all this because he loves us. Makes perfect sense.
You are HILARIOUS…but you summed it up…PERFECTLY!!!
😂😂😂 Great 👍
Haaaaa🤣
Sheesh, when you put it THAT way, we should hear a giant palm to forehead sound when people have the 💡"aha!" moment of their life !
Well done!
😂
Brilliant! 😂😂😂
If one doesn’t try to understand the relationship between the Father and Jesus, one cannot understand this moment in time. And we can only understand it up to a certain level because of the greatness of God and the uniqueness of this relationship. The anguish that Jesus expressed was the feeling of knowing that the Father had to look away. He wasn’t concerned about the physical pain it caused because He knew this beforehand. He was dreading the separation from God. He felt this for the first and only time in eternity. This might be foolish in your eyes but it helps me give a small understanding of the huge love of God for this world.
My first tanakh is in the mail. Excited? Absolutely!
You are so much appreciated and thank you for spreading God's word to the world. You are truly blessed.
curious what version you got? I'm researching what the best English/Hebrew translation at this time and finding little information
I have the JPS translated and i hope that is the best but i am not sure.
@@yalec4897: I've heard that the JPS is not the best to use, since it was composed by Rabbis of many denominations, some of whom are not necessarily Torah observant. I personally use the Stone Edition, since that was what was recommended to me by the Orthodox Rabbis. Others favor the Koren Edition. You may want to consult with an Orthodox Rabbi on this subject.
Go with either Koren Publishers or ArtScroll. They are both accepted universally. JPS is reformed and more of a “liberal commentary”. Shalom! ❤
@@yalec4897I bought it 2nd hand on ebay and it is quite thick..moreso than the my grandparents old KJV. I can give more info when I receive it. It is a JPS but my first and if there is doubt, I will continue researching.
@@Ohnprothe movements name is Reform…not reformed. It’s not a liberal commentary. JPS is made for Jews of all movements. Not just one. If not for the JPS Tanakh I would still be a Christian missionary. I’ve seen many problems with every translation. ArtScroll included. Everyone must learn the Hebrew text ASAP. The more you depend on any translation…including mine BTW…the more you’ll depend on someone else to tell you what God said.
I listen to anything I can to challenge my faith, I even listen to this. The interpretation of this Rabbi simply makes my faith in Jesus and the gospels even stronger. Thank u Rabbi.
Your faith is nothing more than childish indignation and the rejection of reality.
So as a Jew, your religion is completely based on the OT or as you would call it the Torah, right? So, ok do you realize the Torah is mostly just legends with very little evidence even when looked at from a strictly historical standpoint? Take for example Genesis. We supposedly get these legends from a single source, long after the events allegedly occurred. Not only that, but unlike with Jesus, historians don’t even have wide agreement on whether or not Moses even existed. So we don’t even know for sure where these myths come from. More over, to believe everything in Genesis literally happened is to deny so much that we now know from science. And in light of the lack of historical evidence apart from legend and the high improbability of a miraculous occurrence at any particular time, every miraculous claim in the Torah is therefore highly improbable to have actually happened.
@@DemePoole my faith gets me through life, gives me peace. I’m sorry u find it necessary to judge me, try to lessen me as a person.
@johnyannelli2480 You might want to seek professional help if you think talking to an invisible Sky Daddy is going to do anything in reality. Life is hard, but I don't see how believing in a Sky Wizard helps. 🫡
You still have not proven any of the so called supernatural events detailed in the bible are real. I don't need a song and dance just take each one individually and offer proof it is real.
Did he actually compare Judaism to Beethoven and Christianity to Seinfeld?!
LOL
If you don't have the Holy Spirit you will never have revealed truth! You must repent of your sins, accept Christ as your messiah and savior, and then the truth will be revealed to you. But if you draw only from the letter and give the letters your direction, it is wrong. There is no difference between a Jew and a common Gentile, we have all sinned against God, not one is righteous. Do Jews think that if they have heifers they can sacrifice? And for what ? That is why God sent his only righteous Lord Jesus Christ to punish our iniquities on him, and those heifers that the Jews brought are useless, if he does not approach God through Christ, it is useless. You obey the law and reject grace. But in the last times you will know the Lord Jesus Christ, glory to God forever and ever.
Keep the 7 Noahide laws and stop promoting idolatry.
@@hrvatskinoahid1048 Which laws? What idolatry?
@@ejmdenham The idolatry of serving a person.
@@hrvatskinoahid1048 i think you mean human but Surely you know that no christian who knows anything about the bible believes jesus is a "Human"... Jesus is called "Son of Man" as a reference to Daniel when it is said that the one who approaches The throne and rides the clouds is "LIKE a Son of Man". We don't worship a human. Maybe you believe that, but we don't.Your task is to prove that Jesus isnt God, then it's idolatry by default. Simply saying Jesus is a human means nothing and isnt idoltry by itself. In Genesis 18 Abraham met Hashem and spoke to him and gave him worship... As a human. Was that idolatry?

So the rabbi says it wasn't a sacrifice but a bonus or a win in the lottery, or a refund, and anyone given the chance would make a dash for it. In practice all the disciples ran away when given the chance to be crucified with Jesus. So when you are standing there in real life, facing the reality of it, you will not want to face the cross. One further point, to face the cross when you are 100% innocent and without sin, is a completely different matter than getting the just reward for your sinful life.
I feel like the only people who wouldn't take that deal would be people who had doubt. If men who actually spent time with Jesus in person still had doubts how much of a chance do we have a couple THOUSAND years later?
That would depend on how much you believed.. hypothetically Jesus KNEW it wasn’t faith.
@RickHaydnHorst I think there is a chance mark was “real”. Aka it is pretty close to what the people around Jesus actually believed and it was close enough to his lifetime where the story had not evolved much. There are very few supernatural claims in mark. The gospels get more anti-Jewish and more and more supernatural from there.
@RickHaydnHorst accurate and fictional are not the same things. Fiction requires the author to know he is making it up. Inaccurate just means the author’s pov wasn’t really the reality.
Mark is the oldest gospel, also the least supernatural and least anti-Jewish. So it was probably, mostly the way the people there at the time thought it went down.
The theology is very different from the rest of the Bible and such. So it is probably the most reliable part of the NT.
Praise The Lord Jesus Christ
Do you screen out comments from Christians? There is a very well reasoned argument for why Jesus says this on the cross and it is based in the understanding that God the Father cannot look on sin. When he placed the sins of the world on Jesus’ shoulders and punished him for our sins, he looked away and the Son was alone for the first time since the beginning of creation. Jesus did that for you and for me. You fail to understand the prophets as you are still denying the God who created you. Such a shame. Father forgive them for they know not what they do. But your will be done not mine. His judgment is already upon you and if you are not covered by the blood of Jesus - the spotless lamb - his wrath will not pass over you when it comes.
How does god know we're sinning if he can't "look upon it"? Isn't the Bible full of stories of God witnessing and punishing sins?
Christians saying God can't see something is ridiculous.
You are spot on with your comment! I have sat back & watched & listened patiently with rabbi Tovia's replies as to why Christians are sadly mistaken & Tovia only strengthens my faith in our Messiah Yeshua! The Apostle Paul sums it up pretty good when he speaks of the Jewish people being blinded for now, but will soon have their eyes opened to whom they pierced. Thank you Tovia for strengthening my faith in our Messiah.

We believe Jesus, peace be upon him, ascended to Paradise and will return in the end times to complete his work. And he won’t ask anyone to worship him instead of or along with our Creator.
Though Jesus survived death on the Cross 4:157 but Jesus is naturally dead in Quran after living over 100 years 3:144, 5:117, 3:55, 5:110 and dead do not come back. Believe in Quran; not in Mullahs.

Davids words are beautiful and relatable in regards to reaching out to God and his expectations not being met in the moment.
David is the true servant of God.
See if this story makes sense: A man sits on a beach in Florida in July 1969 and sees a large explosion in the distance. He goes home and tells all his neighbors that something huge has happened and something must have been destroyed in the explosion. Later, he finds out that the explosion was the Saturn V Rocket and a few days after the event, man put his foot on the moon for the first time. The good rabbi is the man on the beach. he cannot do not see the World as it is, he can only see the World as he is. The good Rabbi interprets the Gospel as a Jew and therefore fails to comprehend it. He claims the story of Jesus does not make sense, but all the stories in his Bible do? Come on.
What's the most absurd about crucifixion is that supposedly Romans would somehow let Jesus Barabas go free, after he rebelled against romans, wnich is the crime that Romans hated the most.
Crucifixion and Resurrection of the Unconquered Sun (Sol Invictus) on December 22nd to 25th. And who made Christianity the official Religion of Rome? Constantine a Sol Invictus worshipper.
No, it is your lie!
You do not know nothing about your Torah !
@@gracesalva8428 What is a lie. The lies you find ifrom Matthew to revelations
Exactly--the whole thing is tied to paganism. And Christians don't see it.
@@gracesalva8428 historic fact the Roman empire signed stamped and delivered you yet another religion that worships a pagan god man. They even organized and brought you your modern day Bible which all bibles are a copy of. The original authorized Bible for the Christians had 73 books while the minority of Christians use 66 books like the king James Bible.
1. Christmas is generally what people say Sol Invictus created. Christmas was celebrated beforehand, and Sol Invictus isn’t even December 25th. Not Easter, which celebrates the Crucifixion.
2. Christianity existed way before Constantine, read the Church Fathers.
3. Constantine legalized Christianity in the Edict of Milan, he was not the one to make Christianity the Official Religion of the Roman Empire. That was Theodosius.
It’s clear you have no understanding of blatant history
Jesus's words are fulfilling the Scriptures. if the Psalms 22 is not about His crucifixion, I wonder what is it about.
Psalms22:1-21
My God, my God, why have you forsaken me? Why are you so far from saving me, so far from my cries of anguish?
My God, I cry out by day, but you do not answer, by night, but I find no rest.
Yet you are enthroned as the Holy One; you are the one Israel praises.
In you our ancestors put their trust; they trusted and you delivered them.
To you they cried out and were saved; in you they trusted and were not put to shame.
But I am a worm and not a man, scorned by everyone, despised by the people.
All who see me mock me; they hurl insults, shaking their heads.
“He trusts in the LORD,” they say, “let the LORD rescue him. Let him deliver him, since he delights in him.”
Yet you brought me out of the womb; you made me trust in you, even at my mother’s breast.
From birth I was cast on you; from my mother’s womb you have been my God.
Do not be far from me, for trouble is near and there is no one to help.
Many bulls surround me; strong bulls of Bashan encircle me.
Roaring lions that tear their prey open their mouths wide against me.
I am poured out like water, and all my bones are out of joint. My heart has turned to wax; it has melted within me.
My mouth is dried up like a potsherd, and my tongue sticks to the roof of my mouth; you lay me in the dust of death.
Dogs surround me, a pack of villains encircles me; they pierce my hands and my feet.
All my bones are on display; people stare and gloat over me.
They divide my clothes among them and cast lots for my garment.
But you, LORD, do not be far from me. You are my strength; come quickly to help me.
Deliver me from the sword, my precious life from the power of the dogs.
Rescue me from the mouth of the lions; save me from the horns of the wild oxen.
Say what you say about Christ, He is what He is. By the way, Jesus was never helpless, He was forsaken by all, yes but never helpless. He went to His fate as a Redeemer with courage and determination. He was extremely broken in the garden of Gethsemane that He sweated blood but stood up and faced the mob (temple guards) who came to arrest Him proclaiming He is the One whom they're looking for, defending and protecting His disciples. He claimed who He is before Anna, He claimed who He is before Caiaphe and the Sanhedrin and before Pilate. Helpless? Never...
Psalm 22 is about king David and his anguish, as the Psalm preface says. It is clearly not about a divine being.
Moreover, there is nothing Christological in the entire Psalm! The suffering and anguish described are not associated with a divine plan for humanity's redemption from sin. The entire _purpose_ of Jesus's mission, which is the salvation of the human race (according to the NT), is missing from the Psalm.
@ergnz Yeah, King David's anguish included the piercing of His hands and feet too. Didn't know King David was nailed by hid hands and feet.
What about Psalm 110:1?
Psalm of David. The LORD said to my Lord: “Sit at My right hand until I make Your enemies a footstool for Your feet.” The LORD extends Your mighty scepter from Zion: “Rule in the midst of Your enemies.”…
Who is that LORD who was talking to David's Lord if not the Father talking to the Son?
Is it also Isaiah's anguish in 53:5 and not Christ's suffering?
Surely He took on our infirmities and carried our sorrows; yet we considered Him stricken by God, struck down and afflicted. But He was pierced for our transgressions, He was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was upon Him, and by His stripes we are healed. We all like sheep have gone astray, each one has turned to his own way; and the LORD has laid upon Him the iniquity of us all.…
The denial is still as it was 2000 years ago, not surprised. Christ warned the people including His followers that lies will always be spread about Him and He was right.
@comali, if the Psalm is about Jesus (rather than about king David, as the Psalm preface states), then where does it imply or even _hint,_ that the suffering and anguish have anything to with an atoning sacrifice for the sins of mankind? Where is there any Christology in it? There is nothing there to imply that the trials described serve a divine plan to save humanity. The KEY ingredient for Jesus (which is redemption, according to the NT) is entirely missing!
Besides this, the context shows it cannot be about your Jesus or a divine being. How could God liken himself to "a worm, not a man"?
And did Jesus pray CONSTANTLY ("by day and by night") only to find his prayers went unanswered (verse 2)? Please find me THAT from your Gospel stories?! The verse implies not just having his prayers rejected in one evening (as for Jesus), but persistently.
"They pierce my hands and my feet" is a Christian mistranslation of the Hebrew. That verse should be: "LIKE A LION, they are at my hands and my feet." The Hebrew is "Ka'ari" meaning like a lion. There is no "piercing" of hands and feet there, and what about the piercing in Jesus''s side - Why is that absent?
@@psandbergnz Seems you missed reading Isaiah 53:5 it imply clearly that the suffering and anguish is an atoning sacrifice for the sins of mankind, I included it in my message but still the denial is obvious.
Again, it seems also that you purposely missed the entire Psalm about Christ's sufferings and the incident on Golgotha:
scorned by everyone, despised by the people.
All who see me mock me;
they hurl insults, shaking their heads.
“He trusts in the Lord,” they say,
“let the Lord rescue him.
Let him deliver him,
since he delights in him.
”Many bulls surround me;
strong bulls of Bashan encircle me.
Roaring lions that tear their prey
open their mouths wide against me.
I am poured out like water,
and all my bones are out of joint.
My heart has turned to wax;
it has melted within me.

(That happened literally during Christ's Passion all the way through and it's all mentioned in the Bible (The New Testament, The New Covenant that put to rest and in the last seats"God's own people" and placed God's new people including gentiles who believe in Christ as the Son of God and the Redeemer of humanity in the first seats).
You said there is no "piercing" of hands and feet there, and what about the piercing in Jesus''s side - Why is that absent?
The crucifixion, is through the hands and the feet, not the side. If King David mentioned all what Jesus went through, he probably needed a whole book. The Crown of thorns, the whipping which is mentioned, the trials, the beating, a lot of things the "beloved Jews" did to Christ you know.
You said, the context shows it cannot be about your Jesus or a divine being. How could God liken himself to "a worm, not a man"?
Isn't He the Sacrificial Lamb of God?
Isn't that what really happened during His Passion, He was considered as a Leper, a mad Man, a criminal, despised and forsaken.
He drank the Cup to the last drop, He didn't coward and ran away, He faced a whole population, system and Empire, alone.
But alas, the denial and spreading lies about Him, still alive and well but it won't be for long.
@@psandbergnz You were asking where's the side piercing?
My heart has turned to wax;
it has melted within me.
Here, that's the side piercing and it's in the Psalms.
I live in the Midwest and in my drive to work in the morning, which is about fifteen minutes, I will see at least two billboards selling me Christianity. Please, let the rabbi speak and make a clear point to his listeners. Must the evangelicals dominate every conversation?
Christianity is based on faith - it doesn't' have to make sense. That's why it's difficult to reason with them. Their heads are filled with cherry picked out of context passages from the "old testament" that they believe are predictions about Jesus even when there is no such connection in the preceding passages or chapter.
Came across one today where a guy in his Bio quoted 1 Samuel 15;29 most likely believing it was about Jesus. He probably had no clue as to what the passage and the story surrounding it was all about and didn't care to find out.

How is the Second Tempme better than Forst?
1. Slightly taller
Underwhelming. Doesn’t fit in context with elders missing glory of the First. No Ark.
2. Slightly longer time
Same problems as 1.
3. Herod’s additions
A. Beautiful
Whereas Herod’s additions were beautiful, they should have also included the Ark of the Covenant, since Solomon’s was both beautiful and had the Ark.
B. Allow Sacrifices from other nations
If God was really so pleased with how things were going at this point with piety and worship, why was the Temple then destroyed?
4. Third Temple?
In context, this verse clearly refers to the Second Temple.
I agree with the caller. I love both of the Let's Get Biblical books.
And Jesus came and said to them, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.”

Thanks for strengthening my faith further rabbi.
You just proved that you believe in the Greek scriptures because you believe in the Greek scriptures. Have you ever heard of circular reasoning?
And before you go there tenach can be true whether or not the Greek scriptures are.
If you've got 15 minutes I can prove tenach is true.
Thank you Rabbi you've helped me understand scripture in a way I never thought I could and I am very grateful to you for that. Thank you.
Even Rashi commented that this was a future prophecy “Why have You forsaken me?: They are destined to go into exile, and David recited this prayer for the future.” [Rabbi Shlomo Yitzchaki (Rashi)].
This is a powerful statement because Yeshua (Jesus) is quoting the prophecy about Himself which at the beginning of Psalm 22 starts "My God, my God, why have You forsaken me?” He knows His Jewish audience at the cross will recognize what He’s saying and will remember the prophecies about the Messiah that are in that Psalm.
If you continue reading the Psalm there are prophecies which are easily recognized as being fulfilled "They pierced my hands and my feet. I can count all my bones. [because none of His bones were broken].They divide my clothes among them, and cast lots for my garment." When did King David experience any of this?
Sadly many here would just give up and listen to man rather than investigate further and try to comprehend why this verse is in Mark 15:34.
1 Peter 4:12-17 "Loved ones, do not be surprised at the fiery ordeal taking place among you TO TEST YOU..."
Don't forget that King David said; The Lord (God) said to My Lord (Jesus), David was in spiritual contact with Jesus. He knew what God had told Jesus, "sit here til I make your enemies your footstool". Jesus is the Messiah, and he will return to earth when God is ready. And then he fights the final battle with the devil.
Or the Gospel writers knew that psalm and wrote Jesus to fit it?
@@jcgadfly6200 All scripture is perfect. It's man who misinterprets it and wants to turn it into what their religion teaches. Sometimes it's painful for the person reading it to recognize what it is saying because you have to question what you believe and acknowledge Yeshua is the prophesied Messiah. So the answer to your question is No.
@@jcgadfly6200 Well they don't say that particular verse is about Jesus. I am saying based on studying, that is what I believe it to mean. And I am sure many more feel the same way. It's not that the writers made Jesus fit the OT. It's that the OT fits Jesus.
@@heartfortorah exactly, Jesus, the Son of God is the Messiah that God promised in the OT. And if we really study the bible, we see that the OT and the NT, fit hand in hand and tell the whole story.
The reason is you do not understand the reason Jesus gave his life for you that you might live if you put faith in him, but you have been blinded by your own pride and lack of understanding of his purpose.
Jesus people always have this ultimate trump card, some version of "God works in mysterious ways." No matter the issue with God, Jesus, or the Bible, if it makes no logical, historical, or factual sense... "Well, God works in mysterious ways, don't ya know!"
So as a Jew, your religion is completely based on the OT or as you would call it the Torah, right? So, ok do you realize the Torah is mostly just legends with very little evidence even when looked at from a strictly historical standpoint? Take for example Genesis.

@@edward1412yeah we understand that it's ridiculously absurd
When Jesus took the sins of the world upon him God the Father could not longer look upon him and Jesus knew this so is why he said what he did. He said it as a record so people would know the price he paid for our sins. To a non believer the whole Bible, the word of God, doesn’t make sense. To the saved who believe Jesus was born of the Virgin Mary, lived a sinless life, suffered bled and died for the sins of the world and arose again on the third day and now sits on the right hand of God the Father in Heaven waiting for Father God to say to Him go claim your bride, the Bible makes perfect sense. Oh and Jesus is God. Yes the three are one and the one are three.
Just Christ haters just like back then
JamesStewart etc: You have to tell yourself that in order to ease your cognitive dissonance. It is what Christians down the ages have told themselves in order to account for the fact that the Jews did not buy the "Jesus" story.
Let me tell you something the Jews are too kind to tell you. There is no good, credible, extra-biblical, contemporary evidence that "Jesus", as he is described in the New Testament, actually existed. None. See if you can find some. You have been misled, as so many of us were.
Jesus was a person. The main prohibition against idol worship is not to serve one of the creations, be it an angel, a spiritual power, a constellation, a star or a planet, one of the fundamentals of the physical creation, a person, an animal, a tree, or any other created thing.
@@bt-lt4os Judaism says all the nations will recognize his wisdom and sublimity and submit to his rule. It does not say people will serve the Messiah with one of the four special rituals reserved for the Divine service for God in the Holy Temple.
@@bt-lt4os They bow down to Jesus, for example.
@@bt-lt4os It is forbidden to bow down to another person who makes himself into a god.
@@bt-lt4os Matthew 28:19 teaches the three idolatrous musketeers.
Judaism teaches that God is one. He is not two or more, but one, unified in a manner which surpasses any unity that is found in the world; i.e., He is not one in the manner of a general category which includes many individual entities, nor one in the way that the body is divided into different portions and dimensions. Rather, He is unified, and there exists no unity similar to His in this world.@@bt-lt4os
Jesus saved me from hell nearly 10 years ago. He washed me clean from my sins and He will not remember them anymore.
After Jesus saved me He freely delivered me from alcoholism, depression and anxiety. He saved my marriage. He has answered more prayers than I can count. Even those prayers that the world might see as insignificant, Jesus did not overlook them.
He is faithful. When we pray according to His will He hears us, and if we know He hears us, we know we have the requests we have asked for.
I prayed when I was an alcoholic and it didn’t do shit. I got divorced and only get to see my son four days a month. I found that my friends and family had more to do with me overcoming my addiction and problems than an ancient book.
@@symbiotesam3562 First of all, I'm sorry for your troubles and the divorce. I can only imagine the pain.
But it does matter who you pray to. Jesus is the only name under heaven in which men can be saved. You must ask Jesus, specifically, to save you. I am praying now for you to know the truth and be set free.

11:55 Rabbi, how might you respond to the idea that Yeshua was calling out the parallels in Psalm 22 to his current situation? The Romans casting lots for his clothes, so on…which are outlined in the crucifixion story. The idea being that in order to quote or draw attention to a specific passage or chapter, you would simply quote the verse and everyone would know what you are referring to. Because then most families would not have copies of the Torah or Tanakh, and they were not versed, so Yeshua couldn’t just say “everyone turn in your bibles to Psalm 22.” What is your take on this? I’m very curious as I’ve heard this explanation for his quoting this verse.
Who are you to question how God chooses to save His creation ! Only God can save us and only God can offer the perfect sacrifice which He did through Jesus
God forbids human sacrifice.
One song that connects my whole being is.....'Then sings my soul, my saviour God to thee, How great thou art, How great though art.' I can only share my experience that Jesus is as real as as day & night. ❤
Keep the 7 Noahide commandments and leave Jews alone.
@@hrvatskinoahid1048more alone that without Messiah , Jews can't be!!

@@DarlenPapaya-do6ytThe Moshiach of the Bible is King David's progeny, a mortal man of flesh and blood who Isaiah tells comes at the End of the Days and will be ANIMATED BY THE FEAR OF THE LRD!
As Scripture reveals, the CREATOR ALONE is SAVIOR, HE Alone is REDEEMER and Besides HIM there is NO other, the Moshiach of the Bible is King David's progeny, a mortal man of flesh and blood who Isaiah tells comes at the End of the Days and will be ANIMATED BY THE FEAR OF THE LRD!
I agree with the caller, Rabbi Tovia Singer’s 2 volune books, Let’s Get Biblical, are a must read for anyone who finds themselves having any level of faith, belief or acceptance in the NT.
Ezekiel 21:8-14,Sephanyav 1-3 Almighty God warns that earth is cursed by the sins of wicked people and earth shall be perished by sinners and un believers in God and His beloved Son Jesus the Yeshua Massiah shall be tested by the sword of devil shall be coming on any moment onwards.
Paul said, "Faith comes by hearing the Word of God". See Romans 10, Deuteronomy 30.
Actually the NT and OT are both jokes.
Oh, people definitely notice. They simply repeat the story in a particular way so as to not overly emphasize the things that don't make sense and keep moving on as if those are the strengths of the piece.
who are we to question when God is listening and when God answers prayers.... Jesus said to the Pharasees "before Abraham was, I AM." Jesus is God - He heard Davids cry of anguish and heard how he felt and he bore his pain and iniquity just like he did for you and me. When God called out to Moses from the burning bush moses said " Here I am" . and when David crIed to God asking "why are you so far from me ".... Jesus answered 400 years later not just for David but the whole world with arms wide open. here I AM. Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. My point is the entirety of PSALMS 22 is about Jesus every word of it... when was David's Hands and feet pierced??
The Cross of our Messia has a deep spiritual and practical meaning. It is the mystery of life and its way towards Eternity. The sufferings of Israel are related to the Passion on the Cross.
Cross --- sufferings --- Ge'u'la
Christ is risen !
Amen !
To the Flamboulder family, your heart warming testimony is absolutely great news. May Hashem Blessed your family.. 🤗
Rabbi, thank you for your interesting comments. On topic: Nevi'im Tanakh: Osee-ben-Beeri. "O Ephraim, what shall I do to you ? O Judah, what shall I do to you ? For your faithfulness is like a morning cloud, And like the early dew it goes away. Therefore I have hewn them by prophets, I have slain them by the words of my mouth; And your judgments are like light that goes forth. For I desire mercy and not sacrifice, And knowledge of G*D more than burnt offerings."(=Sefer Hosea 06:04 to 06:06)
This Rabbi actually knows Jesus is the messiah. It causes him great confusion.
THIS SHOW IS SO IN LIGHTNING. THANK YOU SO MUCH
*enlightening
The Seinfeld comparison does not work because the show was full of great jokes and there are no great jokes in the New Testament. Not even a chuckle. Nor even a Yada yada.
Paul agrees with you, the Crucifixion make no sense - 1 Corinthians 2:22-25 "For Jews request a sign and Greeks seek after wisdom: but we preach Christ crucified, to the Jews a stumbling block and to the Greeks foolishness, but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God. Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men."
How can God be foolish and weak?
Jesus was pointing to Psalm 22 so people would see it was about himself.
David wasn’t abandoned- and he expressed this.
Jesus wasn’t abandoned - and he expressed this.
Read Psalm 22… this has Jesus all over it.
TRUST IN THE LORD JESUS CHRIST AND YE SHALL BE SAVED 🙏❤👑✝️🕊️
Even though I'm a christian I quite enjoyed listening to you there, rabbi Singer. i think you're guilty of a few errors though
(1) Jesus didn't say 'I say to you, TODAY you will be with me in paradise' but rather 'TODAY I say to you, you will be with me in paradise'. it's a hebraism in other words eg Deut 4:26 'I call heaven and earth to witness against you this day that you shall soon utterly perish from off the land'. They obviously didn't perish off the land THAT DAY!
(2) your assertion that Mark wants to portray Jesus as a 'pathetic character' is surely false and you must know that. Virtually everyone recognizes that Mark portrays Jesus as a dynamic, powerful, irresistable 'force' and in fact only a few verses prior to 'the cry of dereliction' he states, 'and the scripture was fulfilled which saith, AND HE WAS NUMBERED WITH THE TRANSGRESSORS' (15:28). In other words he makes it clear that it was all intentional.
(3) do you think David was contradicting himself in Ps 22:1 when he went on to say 'I am a WORM and no man' but then 'thou took me from my mothers womb' and 'my bones are out of joint' and 'they pierced my hands and my feet'?
(4) Note the 7 words from the cross:
A: Father forgive them they know not what they do (Luke 23:34)
C1 I say to you this day, you will be with me in paradise ( Luke 23:43)
C2 Behold your son Behold your mother (Jn 19:26,27)
A: My God My God why have you forsaken me (Matt 27:46)
C1 to fulfil scripture he said, I am thirsty (Jn 19:28)
C2 after drinking the wine he said, It is finished (Jn 19:30)
A Father into your hands I commit my spirit (Luke 23:46)
Praise God! All Israel will be saved
Jesus Christ was crucified on a Wednesday, spent 3 days in the grave, dead, but his mortal body could not see corruption as he was sinless. Was resurrected by the power of God. Paradise, is the Kingdom of God, which will be on earth, the 7th Millennium at the return of Jesus Christ to take up the crown of David.
Shalom Yeshua is in all of the old testament and the new testament Hashem has closed your eyes but every eye will see Him Isaiah chapter 9-6 unto us a child is born into us a child is given repent and be saved ✡️
marym etc: The "Jesus" character, as described in the New Testament, did not exist. See if you can find some good, credible, extra-biblical, contemporary evidence. There is none. Do not take my word for it; try to find some for yourself.
That's true, when ppl come to Jesus they're usually down and out. If raised with the belief most never question it ( don't look a gift horse in the mouth) and are just glad they won't be going to hell. At the end of the day, that's what it's all about. Fear of eternal hell. Thank you Rabbi Singer. :o)
Christianity lacks common sense! The One True Creator G_d who created all of the Cosmos and everything in it doesn't need any middleman to forgive anyone of their sins! The One True Creator G_d has said this from the very beginning!
Bereshit (Genesis) 4:
3Now it came to pass at the end of days, that Cain brought of the fruit of the soil an offering to the Lord. גוַיְהִ֖י מִקֵּ֣ץ יָמִ֑ים וַיָּבֵ֨א קַ֜יִן מִפְּרִ֧י הָֽאֲדָמָ֛ה מִנְחָ֖ה לַֽיהֹוָֽה:

7Is it not so that if you improve, it will be forgiven you? If you do not improve, however, at the entrance, sin is lying, and to you is its longing, but you can rule over it." זהֲל֤וֹא אִם־תֵּיטִיב֙ שְׂאֵ֔ת וְאִם֙ לֹ֣א תֵיטִ֔יב לַפֶּ֖תַח חַטָּ֣את רֹבֵ֑ץ וְאֵלֶ֨יךָ֙ תְּשׁ֣וּקָת֔וֹ וְאַתָּ֖ה תִּמְשָׁל־בּֽוֹ:

23Do I desire the death of the wicked? says the Lord God. Is it not rather in his repenting of his ways that he may live? כגהֶֽחָפֹ֚ץ אֶחְפֹּץ֙ מ֣וֹת רָשָׁ֔ע נְאֻ֖ם אֲדֹנָ֣י יֱהֹוִ֑ה הֲל֛וֹא בְּשׁוּב֥וֹ מִדְּרָכָ֖יו (כתיב מִדְּרָכָ֖ו) וְחָיָֽה:

The day I witness an epic miracle comparable to something like God parting a sea alongside other witnesses of diverse backgrounds (thereby proving I'm not hallucinating) is the day I'll start saying "Well I just saw that so there is something real going on beyond just old stories".

But wait in the city of Yerushalayim until you are clothed with power from on high."

@@dem4life Spoken by someone who has joined a cabal of those faithful to a failed messiah, who understands nothing of the Tanakh (Old Testament),, doesn't care and is not interested in learning.
So just because your pastor wishes to contradict what is written in the Tanakh doesn't make him right. Christians are oh so ready to play fast and loose with facts to suit their agenda. This is called 'lying for Jesus'. It has a name as it is so widespread.
Or perhaps you know it as 'bearing false witness' although to be fair you have no idea what the texts mean in the Tanakh anyway, and see them all pointing at Jesus, so you have an agenda, and cannot be considered a fair judge of what is written in the Tanakh.
And that is assuming you have any knowledge of Hebrew, which I doubt. Just for the record I do have a knowledge of Hebrew, Old Testament Hebrew I learned as a kid, and modern Hebrew which I pretty easily picked up when I lived in Israel.
So when someone like yourself gets uppity online and starts re-characterising what is intended in the Tanakh, and that person turns out to be a claimed follower of Jesus, that explains why what that person says is all wrong and twisted.
ALL of scripture is pointing to the messiah, Yeshua ( Jesus Christ)
God humbling himself to directly experience the fullness of all human suffering that ever was or ever will be in a singular moment is beyond the comprehension of many people. That doesn’t make it less true.
That story is just dogma and is not found in your bible….

Answer: "My God, My God Why have you forsaken Me" - since before the world, the Father and Son are locked in an endless "gaze" of never-ending love, One, for the Other! When Jesus enters FULLY into human dysfunction (the Cross), He embraces even ultimately the "abandonment" of God,! As man, trapped within his sin, is abandoned without God's loving plan of Salvation (Christ on the Cross). Jesus entered FULLY into human sin...not 99%...FULLY!
I believe in a loving Creator and, I believe Christ was a kind man who traveled and spread kindness and believed in a loving creator. He was murdered because he went up against the cruel leaders of the time. The people of the time made him out to be more then he was or claimed to be. I love him and carry him in my heart for all he did. These are my feelings anyway. I believe in a loving creator of the Universe not in religions.

"Was Jesus being honest when he cried My God why have you forsaken me?"
Yes. He was a human being being tortured to death. He was suffering and in excruciating pain. He was reaching out to God the Father letting him know that the pain he was in was no longer bearable and was asking for the final relief/death . The pain and suffering had to be real, for it to be real God the Father would have to not be present with Jesus during his crucifixion, hence his cry of feeling forsaken.
"You get crucified on Friday then you resurrect and live forever and never get sick again and never get old, who wouldn't do it? Jesus won the lottery"

Luke never stated that he was going to be in Paradise with the criminal. It was Jesus who said this on the cross, to the man who recognised he was a sinner who deserved to die, and that Jesus was innocent and did not deserve to die. "And he said to him, “Truly, I say to you, today you will be with me in paradise.” (Luke 23:43). If you actually knew God you would understand that this is REPENTANCE. Also, you are ignorant of Jesus words when He says; "Father why have you forsaken me?" It is clear that God cannot look upon sin because He is an Holy God. Jesus was taking upon Himself all the sins of the World, by enduring death. This is the one time that Jesus was truly separated from His Father. Death came into the World through one mans sin (Adam). And Jesus was reversing this curse in Himself. Believers in Christ stand today knowing He will return and restore everything that was destroyed in Eden. Christ gave Himself and His blood to atone for our sins. He became the perfect sacrifice (instead of animal sacrificion in the O.T Scriptures). Because man in his disobedience needed a different way.
If you want to attack Scripture today. I would suggest you do your homework first. To miquote Luke 23:43 demonstrates to me that you are misinformed on what it is you actually believe. I would suggest that you read the Bible in its entirety, before making outlandish claims. Also, you might want to consider looking very carefully on who Christ actually is. Especially since He appears quite a few times in the O.T. He even tells you Himself, "If you knew the scriptures, you would know ME!"
Amen, I had so much joy when the Holy Spirit began to show me that Jesus is The Angel of the Lord in the Tanakh. Not "an" angel. THE Angel. Hallelujah 👏👏👏👏

* Now to your claim from my point of view. Isaiah wrote about the Messianic Age.
- In the Messianic Age from Isaiah 2:4 and Micah 4:3, God will bring world peace and the final king Messiah will lead a world at peace.
- Also in the Messianic Age, God will influence the entire world (led by the final king Messiah) to acknowledge and worship the one God. (Isaiah 11:9, Zephaniah 3:9)
* None of this has happened yet.
- There is no world peace.
- Half of the world believing in some type of Abrahamic god (corrupted in Christianity) is not the entire world worshiping the one God.

Before Jesus returns on the last day, satan will posess the antichrist figure who will make a covenant with the many for 7 years.

If the Tanach Prophets knew that they were going to be violently killed for their preaching, would this knowledge have kept them from preaching God's message? Of course not. Did these men want to die violent deaths? Of course not. Men like Isaiah who met violent deaths for their preaching were confident in their resurrection to paradise and beyond to their reward.
Jesus was the expected Prophet (like unto Moses) who was endowed with both the 7-facet "Holy Spirit of God" and the "Spirit of the Messiah" at his adult baptism. As a Prophet, Jesus knew his mortal fate, and he knew his reward for being faithful to his prophetic commission. He knew his violent fate, he prophesied about it, and he accepted it. He (as other Prophets were) was confident in being resurrected, but even with that knowledge, who would be happy while they were being tortured and crucified? Still, Jesus was resigned to the conclusion of his mortal suffering and future reward.
Did Jesus cry out the words for a show? Perhaps. It is very probable that those who witnessed (the Pharisees) the crucifixion, were bit to the bone because of the scene and the words he cried...they would have known immediately what they had done.
Is David in Psalm 22 a prototype of Jesus? Absolutely. David as a man, was worried about his physical wellbeing. Jesus, as David's descendant, when he was tortured and crucified, literally had the physical experience his ancestor described. Jesus was 100% man...and he was 100% worried and in pain, and he 100% remained faithful to his task up to and past his crucifixion and resurrection, just as every other true Prophet was faithful up until death (or whatever their fate demanded).
One thing I would like to point out about the Rabbi's somewhat dismissive comment towards the end. He's acting like Jesus' death was an axe chop or a sword thrust (a quick simple somewhat painless death) and then a resurrection as a reward. Jesus suffered a long and drawn-out torture, most likely the most cruel torture in the history of mankind.
By his pious and righteous life, and his brutal torture and murder (for obeying his commission as being the expected Prophet), he was/is rewarded with the resurrection and paradise...and, in the future, he will return as the Messiah b. David to rule the Messianic Kingdom era.
Jesus fulfilled nothing that the Messiah was supposed to do! So cherry picking verses the prove anything if it wasn't fulfilled.
Statement you made about his long suffering is a joke, many people and nations people endured alot more pain and suffering.
@@billieackley6280 Go back and reread what I wrote.
Prophet...Prophet...Prophet....At his 1st Coming, Jesus came in the primary role as the expected Prophet "like unto Moses".
Prophet...Prophet....Prophet....Jesus was an executed Prophet just like many other Prophets in Israel's past who were sent to reprimand and teach and were brutally executed. Are you catching the theme...or should I repeat it one more time?
Please stop with the Jesus Messiah thing....that is really less important than Jesus being the Prophet (like unto Moses).
Quick question on the suffering of the Messiah...does this have any validity with you (or anyone else) or is this made up?
• "The Holy One, blessed be He, will tell him (the Messiah) in detail what will befall him... their sins will cause you to bend down as under a yoke of iron and make you like a calf whose eyes grow dim with suffering and will choke your spirit as with a yoke, and because of their sins, your tongue will cleave to the roof of your mouth. Are you willing to endure such things?... The Messiah will say: ‘Master of the universe with joy in my soul and gladness in my heart I take this suffering upon myself provided that not one person in Israel will perish so that not only those who are alive be saved in my days but also those who are dead, who died from the days of Adam up to the time of redemption.’" [Pesikta Rabbati, Piska 36.1; Zohar II. 212a]
@@thenazareneperspective2734Also the word Messiah only means “anointed one.” David was also an “anointed one.” The same word is even used in the original manuscripts for David as it’s used for Jesus.
But there is a theme that is congruent with Jesus as the rest of the prophets from the OT.
Your Messiah was supposed to come before the destruction of the second temple. He did.
Christ didn't spend the weekend in paradise. According to Orthodox theology, Christ descended into Hades and saved people from Sheol. Also, the cry of Christ was not His cry, but the cry of humanity. Christ on the cross took the sins of humanity onto himself and took the weight and burdens of those sins and just as he was the Word of God to man, so he also became the Word of man to God.
This makes sense. I grew up in Christianity. I left after being disgusted for a long time by what I now will call its culture of using. Using each other, using scripture to get high, nonstop exploiting in a bunch of sick little repetitive patterns I eventually disconnected from. There’s a certain personality type that loves it and I find those particular people alarming. Can’t get away fast enough.
🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
You decided Jesus didn’t rise from the dead because of the failings of some of his modern day followers? I don’t see the logic in that.
@@williamzoom9200 I decided zombie Jesus wasn’t real after reading the Bible @2012ish with a critical mind. I’d had enough with the people, playing pretend with them and talking to myself. Then I found Bart Ehrman and a slew of other fascinating scholars and apostates along my path to rejecting belief in Christianity and all things Abrahamic.
@@karenabrams8986 I hope that by “read” you really meant “study”. If I were to just read it, there would surely be much I wouldn’t understand or would misinterpret, given that it was written in a different time and culture. As far as Mr Ehrman and his ilk, I’ve read him and watched his lectures/interviews as well; I have taken a critical eye to my faith and come to a different conclusion. Hopefully you’ve also considered the rebuttals to his/their arguments as well.
@@williamzoom9200 I understand the mythology in its Bronze Age-iron age context now and want to see it stay there.
Consider that When Jesus said My God, My God why have you forsaken me....He may have been using the common technique then of citing the first line of a psalm, in order to point his followers to that psalm.
That psalm is a messianic prophecy that Jesus was fulfilling in real time. Even then, Jesus was showing them He is the Messiah.
The Roman soldiers cast lots for his clothing. The mockers did say to Jesus: "He trusted in God, let God save him!"
Jesus was despised of men as also Isaiah prophesies.
"They pierced my hands and feet"
"I may tell all my bones, they look and stare upon me."
Yes, I never understand those who say Jesus is crying out abandoned. If you read the psalm it is one of trust in the Lord at a time of terrible adversity. That adversity is turned into victory.
@@ChristopherWentling Self-serving bollocks. You can twist and distort anything till it fits your agenda.
Psalms are not prophecies. They are writings
The Hebrew text doesn't read "they pierced".
The connection you are trying to make doesn't make any sense. If the purpose was to bring attention to a verse in the psalms, that doesn't explain why he used that specific verse which is about anguish and disappointment with God. He could have said the "pierced man" verses if that was the reason. Christianity has a lot of holes. You try to plug one hole and the other shows up. The religion is appealing to people's emotions and not logic.
If you get it back, it is a loan... Not a Sacrifice. We are arguing with people who can't even use words in a correct manner. But, this is how gaslighting works anyway.
Funny. I just realized it's gaslighting, myself. They can't prove it, so they pretend they have special knowledge given to them by the creator of the universe. Pathetic, really.

Immoral things in Jud--
1. Allowance Contraception
If you allow for contraception, like Juda- gives allowance for if you have two children of male and female, then you are thereby saying that a perver-n is morally okay sometimes. If that’s the case you should say all perver-ons are not wrong. And therefore, allow for things like -e-st-ity.
2. Abortion
Yeah, the stance here he has makes zero sense. How does a baby magically become a person when it’s head pops out. If you can’t trade a life for a life, then it makes zero sense why they allow for direct abortion in cases of life, instead of only allowing indirect in these specific cases. If the soul is the principle of life, and a fetus is human, since it has human DNA, and alive, bc it grows, and a whole organism, not a part of an organism, then a living human organism must have a human soul, and therefore be a person. I would say a person is an individual member of a rational kind. Animals have consciousness, etc, and are not persons. Infants are considered persons, and yet they don’t think rationally. So, if life begins at conception (scientifically it does), then why isn’t a fetus considered a person? That’s backwards imo.
3. Allowances for chattel slavery like to ancient Canaanites
4. Allowing divorce and in some cases, polygamy. Both of which are immoral.
If Jesus' crucifixion doesn't make sense, it must be someone applying human reasoning...the Trinity doesn't make sense to the human mind; if it is only a calculation or mathematical formula. It must be understood spiritually. However, if you are not born again, then natural human reasoning cannot grasp spiritual things, as specified in 1 Corinthians 2:14.
I have conversed with you many times Rabbi, and I do like the parallels you've brilliantly articulated about the disparate Passion narratives appealing to different "mental vices". As an atheist NT scholar, I know you, with your deep knowledge of the developmental Christologies throughout the Gospels, know that it is a little more complex than that. You've presented it as a Christian intended "marketing campaign" as a conversion tool for various human conditions......Although that might be a secondary result and one of the successes of broad appeal , that was certainly not the literary intenent of the Gospels writers as if they were in a psycho-social kahoot
Jeremiah 31:31-34, God promises a new covenant with His people, distinct from the covenant made at Mount Sinai. This new covenant entails a direct relationship between God and each individual, as He says, "I will put my law in their minds and write it on their hearts. I will be their God, and they will be my people" This covenant emphasizes a personal connection with God and the internalization of His laws, rather than external obedience. It is a covenant of grace and forgiveness, offering the opportunity for spiritual renewal and a deepened relationship with God.
Not a new law.
So in Jeremiah, God is predicting the coming of Yeshua in Mary ????
We see the fulfillment of this prophecy in the coming of Jesus Christ, who inaugurated the new covenant through His death and resurrection. In the New Testament, Jesus refers to the new covenant in His Last Supper discourse (Matthew 26:28) and Paul discusses it in his letters (e.g., 1 Corinthians 11:25, 2 Corinthians 3:6, Hebrews 8:6-13). This new covenant is seen as a spiritual renewal and transformation of God’s relationship with His people, made possible through the forgiveness of sins by Jesus’ sacrificial death on the cross.
Supernatural deities have always been bunkum so what does that make of Cheebus. 🤔

@@hrvatskinoahid1048Isn’t that common sense? How else would you be able to interpret this verse? עין תחת עין.

So, Rabbi Tobia.... You do not think the Easter story of the New Testaments about Jesus makes sense. Then what about Torah stories about Noah's flood, the ark of the covenants' magic powers, Moses parting the Red Sea, a burning bush that was on fire but not consumed by the fire??? These are just a few. Why is the New Testament a fable or fairytales, yet the Old Testament (Torah or Tanach real truth? Why can't they both be miracles? It makes sense.
For your information, the ancient Hebrew creation myth, the Adam and Eve myth, the Noah's ark myth as well as the Exodus myth make no sense either. Faith is a mental disorder that prevents those afflicted from discerning fact from fiction.
Rabbi, please what is the best and most accurate English translation of the Tanakh available currently?
If you're Jewish, you need to ask your Rabbi. When I converted to Orthodox Judaism, I was advised to use the Stone Edition. Others use the Koren Edition - I'm not sure of the difference, since I don't have a Koren yet.
There is no such thing as the most accurate translation. Every translation is wrong somewhere…including the one I’m working on. Learn the Hebrew text. I’ll help you if I can.
@@janishart5128you can read the older Koren from 1962 on Sefaria for free. I doubt the newer Koren will be added since the copyright is so new.

And here "I Am" smoking a cigarette and drinking Bourbon. 😮
Michael/Jesus had to live seven lives as various angels and then the final life experience was supposed to be a primitive life of an ascending being. Once the seventh life had reached a certain point Michael/Jesus was then able to connect with God and become One. When a being becomes One with God it means they can communicate and that being can create new beings.
When Michael/Jesus lived a human life and grew to be an adult He kept saying, "My time has not yet come," because He had not yet become One with God. He was waiting. Once the bond happened Jesus began preaching more aggressively. Michael/Jesus had to die to have the full experience but He did not have to die by crucifixion. Michael/Jesus could have left His body and it would have fallen dead on the spot but He chose to go through the crucifixion experience because the angels were rebelling and accusing Jesus of being untested and unworthy. When Jesus said, "Why have you forsaken me!" He was basically saying, "I've had enough," so He could leave his body. A Son of God experiencing something like that is very unusual to the universe.
He is pointing to Daniel. The Messiah will be cut off. Forsaken, is to be cut off. He came before the second temple destruction and this prophesy in Daniel was fulfilled. You do not See Tovia. You speak against יה
You can hate the CROSS, but you can not ignore or even avoid it.
Yes, we can. The Romans never crucified people on a WARP AND WOOF, but on poles similar to our telephone poles, certainly with a transom, usually with a beam and horn assembly to serve as seat or rather hook midway up.
@@user-uo7fw5bo1o
The princip of the Cross is especialy a mystical one. You can not ignore, for example, the " cross " of the jews which followed the Crucifixion: your temple was destroyed 40 years later, the exile and even a very big cross ( unjust crime and suffrance ) as the holocaust of the jews last century.
The vertical line of the Cross shows the Incarnation of the Word and ( afterwards ) the Elevation and Glorification. Also the verticality of the divine israeli Man.
The horizontal line of the Cross expresses the open hands of the israeli Savior.
The Cross is not a councidence. It has a deep meaning.
Anti-christian jews,
try to be smarter and get even a deeper heart... and you will begin to understand things that were hidden for your eyes already 2000 years.
The Cross shows also the direction upstairs, towards heaven. The vertical Way....
Shalom !
@@user-uo7fw5bo1o The Cross shows the vertical Way of Elevation to God. But there is on the way also Sacrifice.
Also the jews suffered in the last 2000 years. They had also their cross...
@@user-uo7fw5bo1o The vertical line of the Cross expresses the Incarnation but also the Resurrection.
The horizontal line expresses the assembly of the created world in the Mashiyach.
Cross is also an unjust crime and sufrance. Also the jews had THEIR crosses in the last 2000 years.
Think about it...
@@johannw7724 You mean the crosses for Haman that they had displayed for Purim centuries ago when Rome was still an empire?
Or are they the crosses of persecution by Christians and Muslims?
To sacrifice your life, only to be quickly resurrected, is not really much of a sacrifice, is it?
Too much logic for the religious mind to comprehend.
Abraham wasn't a Jew nor did he practice Judaism as the ideology had not even been invented until long after his death (and that's if he even existed).
