Made me recall a story. Once I got medical help from a religious Haredi Jew in Metula (Northern Israel), when I got significantly injured after longboarding on Friday evening (right before Shabbat). He put me in his car, drived home, where his family was waiting, and he didn't care if they start Qiddush sooner or later, he wanted to help me stop my arm bleeding before anything else. While he was driving me, I told him I am a traveller, and actually not a Jew, but he was puzzled, like, so what, how it should matter? After three and half years, I still remember this story and am very thankful for his help to a stranger.
Heart warming... Thanks for telling this.
Of course, because by Judaism we are all equal, on earth as in Heaven. By Judaism ALL good people, go to the same Heaven as the Jews, and no need to convert.
Judaism worship life, Chaim, so of course that life is more important than the Shabbat
wow you are injuried and telling him that you are not a jew
are you testing him😂

What a silly question. As a Religious Haredi Jew its a commandment to save all life. Jew or non-New. No matter what!
In the 2010 Haiti Earthquake the ZAKA ultra-orthodox rescue teams from Israel did desecrate Shabbat to save the lives of gentiles.
Yeah and then Hilary had her employees go and kidnap 10+ kids and got caught sneaking across the border.
and now theyre doing the same thing in honduras
congratulation
I was borned in Yom Kippur on shabbat day! The doctors were there! Thank you the doctors and nurses never doubted on helping my mother!
Nice
Are you Jewish and were the doctors Orthodox? They obviously weren’t otherwise they wouldn’t have been working that day.
@@AereForst
All emergency services in Israel operate on Shabbat. Religious and ultra-Orthodox professionals (doctors, firefighters, police officers, etc.) also work on Shabbat
I am a Orthodox Jew and you are required to save a human life no matter what a stupid question

Yeah u are

That's exactly what I thought!
I am a Jew and God loves his children more than he loves the Shabbat. The Non-Jews are also the children of God so it is an obligation to save them in times of need according to Judaism
I think we are all related and that's why we should help each other
The fact of the matter is that Hatzalah (orthodox jewish volunteer paramedics) do routinely save non-Jewish lives in America and in Israel on Shabbat.
Saving non Jewish lives in America is the Norm and can be seen as a US mandate.
However saving non Jewish lives in Israel is debatable
Aye Carumba Israel treats everyone. Including Palestinians who leave b*mbs in hospitals as payment. Give me a list of Jews treated by Palestinians?
Lol look up the reason for the Crown Heights Riots
You expect us to be impressed? Wow! Those Jews are amazing! They even agree to treat non-Jews like fellow human being! Such an incredible people!
@@Mr.Oblivian , nothing to do with sabbath, the police at the scene told Hatzalah not to treat the kid , but the blacks were not interested in finding out the facts (similar to Ferguson) so they rioted anyways (thanks to Al Sharpton)
The Jews who need to even think about the question don't know anything about their own religion. It's commanded that you must break shabbat if it is to save a life. Jew or non jew makes no difference at all.
It's not that obvious, it depends which approach of the Judaism do you follow. Some extremists will argue that it depends on the situation, and sometimes it is better to not save the dying person. Judaism is not a cookbook collection. There is a lot of different opinions, traditions from different countries, from different times....etc
And you know nothing about Judaism.
There is a big debate about this in the Talmud. The fact that you don't know (and others are aware of this argument) just reinforces my argument.
People just not remember probably the conclusion final so hesitate. That's how we Jews. Testing and researchers anything. Not throw crap we don't know.

Interesting that the Haredim get labelled by secular people as the “crazies” who would potentially say no, but they seem to give the clearest answer that all lives should be saved, Jew or Gentile.
ironic how im watching exactly on a saturday while there are israeli teams helping rescue people in honduras after that hurricane
There is discussion in the Talmud about what the theoretical justifications are for being able to break Shabbat to save a life (or limb) from (possible) danger. While it may seem obvious that you can, the Talmud and halakha [Jewish law] are still interested in coming up with a framework to justify our initial instincts.
Among the many justification brought, one of them was that if you break shabbat to save a life, then the person whose life you saved will go on to keep many more Shabbatot. This, of course, can only apply to a Jewish life, because non-Jews aren't commanded to keep the Shabbat. Of course this is only one of many justifications of why you break shabbat to save a life, with the most basic one that sakana chamura missura, that danger takes precedence over halakhic prohibitions.
So in terms of contemporary practical halakha, everyone agrees you save the life of a Jew or non-Jew on shabbat.*
*There are probably a few racist whackos who if they thought they would be able to get away without anyone knowing what they did not save the life of non-Jews, but they probably wouldn't save the lives of non-religious Jews either. Every group has its crazies, luckily this type of crazy person is very few in number.
"Everygroup has its crazies" Some groups are obviously infested by them. In France where I live, you would be considered nuts just for asking this type of question. Here everyone seemed to consider that the question was a sensible one and deserved an answer.

It is 100% permitted to break Sabbath in order to save life. It is that simple.
Saving a life is NOT desecrating the Sabbath!
According to Jewish law, technically (without the holy temple it can’t be implemented) the penalty for desecrating Shabbat is death. For this reason it’s not obvious at all that one would be allowed to desecrate Shabbat to save a life.
Now the Talmud says that one does indeed desecrate Shabbat for a fellow Jew. The rational given by the Talmud for this desecration is that it will lead to many more Shabbats being kept I.e. the rest of that Jew’s life. By gentiles this rational does not apply, therefore technically according to the Talmud one is not allowed to desecrate Shabbat for a Gentile.
Now two points are in order. First: Many times, if not most times, one can save someone’s life without desecrating Shabbat, especially if the person knows the laws of Shabbat well, there’s are ways of doing things so that it won’t be biblically forbidden.
Second point, 99% of Rabbi’s now take the position that one should desecrate in order to save a Gentile. The reason being, that if by keeping this law it would lead to any backlash and Gentiles wouldn’t save Jewish lives (because they don’t understand and appreciate the importance of keeping Shabbat) then by not saving the Gentile the person is endangering Jewish life, and we already ruled that for Jewish life we do desecrate Shabbat.
Hope this clarified. Written by an Orthodox Jew that actually knows Jewish law.
Thank you for your answer. It is a mix of chilling biblical law and modern logic that I find intriguing in Orthodox Judahism
What's your stance on the Jews who despise Gentiles and are open about it?
blacktigerpaw1 You are soo stupid! You read lies online, then actually believe it!
As an Orthodox Jew that lives and breaths that community I.e. every relative and practically every friend of mine is an Orthodox Jew. I can say that your characterization is ridiculous and just foolish. There is no “stance” on the subject because there’s no such position.
The most that can be said for many Orthodox Jews, if asked what they think of non-Jews is that they don’t. meaning that for many Orthodox Jews non-Jews are just not part of their life aside for business and (paid) services.
For many Orthodox Jews the Jewish people are meant to be a nation apart like the Jewish Bible says “I have separated you from all the nations of the world.” And so they live their life that way, often times wearing ridiculous outfits just to be different from the surrounding nations.
So, you will save him because it is beneficial for you?

He who saves one life saves the world entire....From Schindler's list citing of the Torah.
Talmud Mishnah Sanhedrin 4:5
I always thought it was "Save the cheerleader, save the world"--Heros.
There is something very similar in the Quran
@@KurlandHickoryThat's right, Qur'an 5:32. Muhammad took it from the Mishna. It even says that this what God told the Children of Israel. But actually it wasn't God but Rabbis who discussed the Torah.
In the Quran:
Because of that, We decreed upon the Children of Israel that whoever kills a soul unless for a soul or for corruption [done] in the land - it is as if he had slain mankind entirely. And whoever saves one - it is as if he had saved mankind entirely. And our messengers had certainly come to them with clear proofs. Then indeed many of them, [even] after that, throughout the land, were transgressors.
[Surah Al-Ma'idah, Ayah 32]
more or less same meaning..:)
I can’t believe this is even something a human would have to consult someone over.
It's not. Observant Jews know that the mitzvah to save a human life (Jew or Gentile) takes precedence over Shabbat.
Unfortunately, a lot of the questions Corey gets come from people with antisemitic/anti-Israel views (not to say that is the case here; the person asking might not know). If anything, it's testament to the Israeli character that so many people handle these pointed questions with such grace.
@@michaelchurch1324
It's not necessarily antisemitism. People read/ hear things and get curious sometimes. All religions have bad parts, and Judaism can't be the one and only exception (It's understandable to think that if you are Jewish, but if you are not, chances are that you don't think that anyway), and people get curious about the odd stuff sometimes. Especially when they read about some bad judgement that a religious person made. They might want to understand if that judgement was rooted in the theology.
There were an incident that happened in the sixties where a religious Jew (in Israel) refused to allow a Gentile to use his phone to call the hospital in order to save a friend of his. He claimed that desecrating the Shabbat is only permitted if it were to save a Jewish life. I don't recall the details but I am sure you can find it on the internet somewhere. I read about it in a Jewish (leftist) source, so it should be a true story I think.
It's because a secular person hears this as a question about intuitive human ethics. Many religious Jews especially if they studied in yeshiva hear this a hypothetical question about Jewish law. It's like asking a lawyer "if an apple from your neighbor's tree falls into your yard is it your property?" The person is saying; "you are asking me a question about Jewish law that I don't know the answer to, so I would ask someone that does (i.e. a rabbi)"
@@michaelchurch1324 I have literally heard this from orthodox jewish people who think otherwise , it is strange indeed since to save someone life is most important in the world
There is a concept in Jewish religious law called "pikuach nefesh" in which any Jewish religious law may be broken (with a few exceptions) in matters of life and death.
In my opinion you would desecrate Sabbath by not saving a live and honour it by saving a life no matter if they Jewish, other religion or atheist.
Absolutely. When I was in Gaza the war did not stop on Shabbat. Jewish law also allows this and demands you break the sabbath to save someone, eat pork if you're starving, etc.
Because Hamas, as Muhammad, do no respect the holy days of others (your Islamic terrorist friends, when Muhammad attacked Mecca (it was Petra, in fact)
Therefore not only on Shabbat, Egypt and Syria opened was against Israel in 1973, in Yom Kippur.... when no TV, no radio, no cars of the streets, many of the people are fasting, in the holiest day for Judaism. So in Shabbat? On Shabbat and in a cease of fire, even better! ask the Muhammads
Empress 24 and IsraeI attacked Syria on Christmas last year, also on Eid, and Asura. Looks like Zionists don't respect the holy days of others.
@Chana Bayla exactly. like I said ,ZIonists have no respect for anybody's beliefs.
@Eternal Fisherman yea ik, i'm just pointing out his hypocrisy... and that's a gross generalization. Arabs are humans, not a ideology...
@Eternal Fisherman intentions don't make a difference... results do. why attack Damascus on Christmas out of all days of the year? especially when Syria is one of the few countries in the ME where Christians are not persecuted by the state..
This interview made me recall the following:
On one occasion an expert in the law stood up to test Yeshua. “Teacher,” he asked, “what must I do to inherit eternal life?” “What is written in the Law?” he replied. “How do you read it?”
He answered, “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind’; and, ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’” “You have answered correctly,” Yeshua replied. “Do this and you will live." But he wanted to justify himself, so he asked Yeshua, “And who is my neighbor?” In reply Yeshua said: “A man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, when he was attacked by robbers. They stripped him of his clothes, beat him and went away, leaving him half dead. A priest happened to be going down the same road, and when he saw the man, he passed by on the other side. So too, a Levite, when he came to the place and saw him, passed by on the other side. But a Samaritan, as he traveled, came where the man was; and when he saw him, he took pity on him. He went to him and bandaged his wounds, pouring on oil and wine. Then he put the man on his own donkey, brought him to an inn and took care of him. The next day he took out two denari and gave them to the innkeeper. ‘Look after him,’ he said, ‘and when I return, I will reimburse you for any extra expense you may have." “Which of these three do you think was a neighbor to the man who fell into the hands of robbers?”
The expert in the law replied, “The one who had mercy on him.” Yeshua told him, “Go and do likewise.”
(B'rit Hadashah, Luke 10:25-37)
Matthew 15: 21 where Jesus didn't wanna help a gentile...
@@shhiknopfler3912 Well, the Matthew 15,21-28 indeed gives the impression at first that Jesus was not willing to answer her request because she was a Canaanite. What is clear is that the woman was not going to give up, but kept pleading, even from her Canaanite background, so that Christ recognized her great faith. The contrast is truly striking: in Israel Jesus was trying to convince people He was the Messiah, and was being challenged to prove it with a sign. But here in Gentile territory he met a woman who was convinced He was the Messiah and He could not discourage her efforts. His apparent attempt to put her off was therefore a test, and her great faith must have been gratifying to the Savior.
This is one passage where we will have to read up on the ethnic controversy, the Old Testament background of conflict between the kings of Israel and the Canaanites. This will give some insight into the imagery of “dogs” used in the conversation. The story, though, is truly about the persistent faith of this Canaanite woman
Jesus’ encounter with the Canaanite woman is at first unsettling.
Jesus is less than eager to help this woman, explaining that his mission is first to the house of Israel. However, Jesus is the one who has left Jewish territory and invaded this woman’s world. Furthermore, this Canaanite woman -- an unclean, outsider -- demonstrates that she has a better grasp of Jesus’ identity than the hand-selected disciples do at this point in the narrative. Jesus’ encounter with the Canaanite woman unsettles boundaries and calls into question definitions of clean and unclean.
Jesus has entered into Tyre and Sidon where the Canaanite woman instantly greets him. It is remarkable that enough word about Jesus had spread to this region that this woman would somehow know who Jesus is (cf. Mark 3:8). The text does not say that he performed any signs in Tyre and Sidon before meeting her (see 11:20-24), yet she somehow recognizes him, not just as a roaming healer but as a rightful king.
The woman greets Jesus as the “Son of David.” Her recognition is all the more remarkable because the disciples have been a bit slow in recognizing Jesus. In Matthew 14, after the walking on the sea, they do recognize Jesus as the Son of God, but it is not until 16:16 that Peter declares Jesus as Messiah. Yet, this woman hails Jesus as the Son of David, begs his mercy, and entreats his power over a demon that has “severely” possessed her daughter (v. 22). How is it possible that this woman has more insight into Jesus’ identity than his disciples? She is, after all, an unclean outsider, part of a people who are remembered as an old enemy of Israel.
Jesus’ response is, perhaps, the most perplexing piece of this narrative. At first, he does not say a word to her, but he refuses to send her away. Only after her persistence does he converse with her. Twice, he explains to her that his mission is first to the “lost sheep of the house of Israel.” Indeed, the narrative has emphasized that the “house of Israel” has provided Jesus with more work than one laborer could feasibly handle (9:35-10:6). The need in Israel is indeed great.
The disciples, too, seem to think that Jesus should stay focused on the needs of Israel. They kept telling him to send her away because they are tired of hearing her cries for help (15:23).
Perhaps, Jesus’ refusal to listen to the disciples gave the woman hope that her request would be heard. She does something that is significant in this Gospel: she kneels before him. The author of Matthew uses this action as one befitting a king. The magi, who are also Gentiles, are the first to offer worship to Jesus in this way (Matthew 2:2, 8, 11). The unrepentant slave bows before the king in the parable of unforgiving servant (Matthew 18:), and the mother of James and John kneel before Jesus as a king of a kingdom (Matthew 20:20). For the woman to treat Jesus in this manner is in keeping with her earlier declaration of Jesus as the Son of David.
Kneeling is not only a sign of kingship, but also recognition of power. There is a connection between those who kneel before Jesus and the healings that Jesus performs. A leper kneels before Jesus and asks to be made clean (Matt 8:2). A ruler kneels and asks for his daughter’s healing (9:18). At the end of this Gospel, when the resurrected Lord appears, the disciples bow before him, and Jesus says that all authority in heaven and earth is his (28:17-18). Bowing in worship also recalls Jesus’ command to worship only the Lord God (4:9). This woman kneels before one whom she recognizes as having authority not only to sit on the throne of David, but to wield power over evil.
Jesus’ response to her second cry for help includes a reiteration of his mission to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. He even likens her status as a Gentile to the status of the small, pet dogs who long to be fed from the table (15:26).
The woman, however, is not deterred. She claims a place in the household, but it is a not a position of privilege or even the position of an insider. She accepts the status of a family’s dog by claiming that even the dog enjoys crumbs from the table.
Her statement is striking. She places hope in what others have discarded. This Son of David has so much power that there is enough power for the house of Israel and more than enough left over for her. She is not trying to thwart his mission. She just wants a crumb, recognizing that even a crumb is powerful enough to defeat the demon that has possessed her daughter.
Jesus praises her faith. This woman seems to understand what the members of the household of Israel have yet to grasp.Jesus is not just hope for Israel, but hope for the world.
In the passage that immediately precedes this story, Jesus responds to challenges from the scribes and Pharisees by reframing the boundaries of clean and unclean. In 15:18, Jesus declares that what comes out of the mouth proceeds from the heart, and what comes out of the heart determines what makes one clean. What comes out of the Canaanite woman’s heart is faith -- certainty that Jesus has power enough for Israel and power enough to save her non-Israelite daughter.
Her words demonstrate that the boundary separating her from the house of Israel must be reconsidered. With a faith so pure, how can she be deemed unclean? The encounter with the Canaanite woman prepares the reader for Jesus’ great commission to go and to make disciples of all the nations (28:20).
Reading Jesus’ encounter with the Canaanite woman during Pentecost reminds the church that God is constantly entering new territory and breaking boundaries. This God is in the unsettling business of meeting outsiders and granting them not just a crumb, but a place at the table.
@@jacarezinha79 I'll just respond to you first claim since this is for comments. Not articles.
You make it believe like the issue is about Canaanite but No, check out Matthew 10:5 for what it meant and that what Jesus clearly meant.
Finally it's in acts 28 were Paul gives up with the Jews and starts preaching to the gentiles.
It's actually written in the torah/Bible that you need to break the Sabbath if someone is either dying or in big pain!
After watching your videos i have become more sure that the sound of Hebrew and its pronounciation attract me so much so that i sterted learbing it. Thank you so much ❤️ תורה רבה
He said to them, "If any of you has a sheep and it falls into a pit on the Sabbath, will you not take hold of it and lift it out?"
The question is wrong because Scriptures said that the sabbath is the day for blessing and for doing good. One would only desecrate the sabbath if one transgresses the commandment NOT to work on the sabbath, and saving a person is doing good and not working.
May Yah bless those who understand and keep Your sabbath with all their heart!

You are asking a leading question to secular Israelis to get them to say something negative that will fit your agenda. Why don't you learn some halacha before you ask this question? Very disappointing!
This question is so fucking offensive! The obligation to save a life overrides all other considerations of keeping Shabbat; it's not "desecration", and it doesn;t matter if they're a Jew or not.
Bless Israel!!! 💪🏻🇮🇱
Greetings from Holland
k
Saving a life is mandatory and no there’s nowhere in any book that says it’s a sin. In fact it says like the exact opposite. Sounds like arab propaganda.
The origin of this blood libel is is in the need of Paul the Apostle to defame Jews.
As an exemplary parables Jesus healed people on Sabbath (all non-emergencies) and was scolded by the leaders, presumably showing they put the importance of keeping the law over saving life.
What is exactly arab poropoganda ?
@@greenme7094 usually when their lips are moving.
@@Lorenzoselas You dont make sense.
Saving life is of the highest priority in Judaism (and should be so everywhere). You can break almost every religious law (beside killing, and that's debatable) to save a life (jew or gentiles.. honestly, what is the difference? its about saving lives!)
-"There are claims that in the Talmud it's the opposite"
-"Do you know the answer already?"
-"No, but someone told me"
Real professional interviewing right there
Corey's project looks for answers from people on the street to questions people send in. He isn't necessarily looking for a single authoritative answer. In that context, his lack of knowledge of the Talmud is irrelevant.
@@avrahamgoldberg9731 It is completely relevant. That man has a clear bias against religion. If it wasn't relevant, he wouldn't have asked that question. Asking that question alone already brings up misleading ideas to the viewer, and when he was asking this question he was most likely waiting for someone to say no and then be like "HA! GOTCHA!". Of course it didn't happen because his premise isn't true, but you can see his bias.
This is the point of interview journalism. If the answer is so obvious, why did some people struggle to answer it? I agree he is biased many times but this is not one of the cases.

@@YehudiNimolwhy would be be biased against religion?
Actually, the person who posted this question must be filled with prejudices against Jews.
I cannot imagine ANYONE saying that they would NOT help a person who would die if they did not receive help, shabbat or not. After all the rabbis all agree that if fasting puts a person in jeopardy then it is FORBIDDEN for them to fast on a holiday where fasting is required. LIFE above EVERYTHING else! ALWAYS!
The sabbath was made for man, not the man for the sabbath. The life of any being its very important. No matter if its a human or an animal.
The Bible says that even if there is a one percent chance of death then u must save them
A first question to this question would be: "What exactly desecrates shabbath?" And the second would be: "What does shabbath has to do with saving another person's life?"
Shalom, Salam, Peace.
You should ask this to orthodox jews exclusively

Aji Saputra Raka Siwi they rarely answer yes. But it’s ok, they will find Jesus soon enough and share his mercy or find they don’t inherit eternal life.
@@danielzechariah7263 , they mostly answered yes

Frater Rosemaat Abiff I mean a video exclusively asking this to orthodox jews, especially in orthodox jews neighbourhood
I was taught that human lives comes before anything else, including shabbat, so this question seems silly. It is required of us to do what we can if it helps another human being, Jewish or not. This reminds me of the story of the religious man with diabetes who is allergic to bovin insulin but not pork insulin. If the pork insulin was THE ONLY insulin that would save his life then he is commanded to inject it. Same goes for helping r saving any life on shabbat.
Your right about pikuach nefesh, but also insulin made out of pig parts is fine because Kashrut only applies things you injest. It doesn't apply to injections
Corey, in the Talmud it's not desecration. One may save any human's life And one may even save the life of an animal (I think it specifies an ox). They know correct behavior better than your Inquisitor. I have read some odd hateful stuff but I think haters are going to be found in every religion, given there are so many people in the world. Also, this may be why the Torah is especially protected, one cannot change one word of it. But the Talmud is all commentary.
Gil dear, i'm watching you for a long time and i would love to see some more religious people answering your questions, since you have many questions that are aimed more to them then to seculars.. i think it would make the videos more deep

All other Jews woudl safe anyone on Shabbat, as any life is more important that the Shabbat, of course

Seriously Corey, what's the point of asking this questions to people who don't observe Shabbat in the first place? smh
Religion just get in the way of natural human kindness.
How would anyone would know in times of an emergency whether an individual is a Jew or not? What's more, in today's world, it is not so clear cut who is a Jew and who is not.
whether they are wearing those funny sideburns.
Wow Mark, you actually stumbled onto something few Zionists even realize. Since the creation of the State Of Israel, secular Zionism has had to confront a fundamental question to which not even its supporters aboard have so far found an answer. Who Is a Jew?
For Zionists in the State Of Israel, any definition of Jewishness is deeply deceptive, imbued with bad faith and arrogance. You can imagine the fury that would be triggered in France, USA, Britain, Germany, or any liberal democracy if the authorities required that individuals who identify themselves as Jews have this attribute marked on their identity papers or if Jews were categorized as such to mark they are Jews, like wearing a yellow star. In Israel, this is the norm. In fact, Zionism is based on it.
@@chugalongway01 Yep it's complicated. According to the religious you must be born of a Jewish mother. According to the secular Zionists who founded the modern country, all you have to have is one Jewish grandparent to make aliya. This was designed to be the antithesis of Hitler's Nuremberg's Law which defined a Jew as someone with one Jewish grandparent. I guess you have to convert to get married in Israel if you fall into this second category. But you know what? I think that anyone who wants to consider himself a Jew, is a Jew. Also, do you think they were asking to see circumcision and Jewish Marriage Certificate (Ketubah) to determine if someone was a Jew who survived the concentration camps? I think speaking Yiddish and reciting prayers and the tattooed numbers etc back then were enough.
@@multilingual972 Maybe for people of partial Jewish extraction it's complicated... for me it isn't. Both my parents were Jewish, as were all my grandparents. It's solidly my heritage. And yet I am constantly being told that I'm a "fake Jew", or that my history was fabricated. This has nothing to do with Zionism as none of my forebears were Zionists nor ever lived in Israel. It's about delegitimization of Jewish identity.

Even the most haredi person will tell you that the talmud doesn't decide halakha (Jewish law)
the jewish law says you can break sabbath or kosher if it is to save lives. btw i did heard a haridi person talk about this and thats what he said. the video is not that good cause he came to people who dont really keep sabbath anyways so the quistion isnt relevent.
shalom Jackie
Why does every video have double sub titles and can’t be read
The Shabbat, as I have learned, is to honour Hashem in holding the Shabbat. When I read about Abram (Abraham) excusing himself from conversation with Elokim/HaShem to see to the visitors' needs of food and water he has honoured Elokim/HaShem in loving the stranger and thus would be fulfilling a "commandment". The question is odd to me because it is asking if you would desecrate the Shabbat (a commandment from Elokim/HaShem) and yet if someone is in need and you help them then it is not desecrating Shabbat but fulfilling another Elokim/HaShem command therefore honouring the Lord. Also there is the teshuva (repentance). I believe the question was asked in an incorrect way, and yet possibly in the way of testing. The 'laws' are set there to remind us of our commitment to Elokim/HaShem and to those made in His image, that is, the whole of humanity. Israel (Judaism) is to be the light to the world in representing Elokim/HaShem.
Baruch HaShem

This is most ridiculous video subject you have come up with, Corey. I have many relatives (and some were religious) who were hidden by Gentiles who saved their lives and these relatives (descendants now) would DIE to save the lives of their dear friends, these Gentiles and any other Gentile on Shabbat. I think it should be a grave sin to let a non-Jew die when s/he could have been saved on Shabbat. Corey, come up with better topics. Maybe you are not getting many good ones from your viewers. מאד מעצבן אין לי מילים באמת!
I actually believe that is a great question, here's why. There is a strong narrative in certain circles about the lives of the gentiles being worthless. Hopefully video like these can help set the record straigth.
I agree.
In fact most of his videos are pointless at best..
@@mathieumichaud-rancourt7684 en écrit "straight"
Yea
@je&moi-meme * his followers suggest and he's the one who picks them genius!
Human life is sacred. Religious norms can be suspended to save and preserve life, otherwise what would be the point of those laws/rules/ethical frameworks? As far as I know all religious traditions agree on this. Religion is at its core about humanity, we just differ on the ideal enactment of it. But you can't be any religion without being a human first.
I will ask you one thing. Is it lawful on the Sabbath to do good or to do evil, to save life or to destroy?
Is nobody going to talk about the Jewish David Tennant at the end?
what a silly question! religious doctor treat Palestinian in israeli hospital in shabbat. it's the rule.
Of course. A saving a human life is always first, then Shabbat. If one does not help someone in danger on Shabbat, he violates the shabbat as if he would work, go shopping and pray to idols on shabbat. Not helping can be indeed considered as killing, if one is able to help, but doesn't do so, and this on Shabbat, would be even worse.
What a ridiculous question. To the chiloni the desecration of Sabbath is irreleant. To the Orthodox, they know that one has to break the Sabbath to save a life.
I would save everyone's life in the comments section.
shabbat was made for man, not man for the shabbat. love for God and then love for other people is the fulfilment of the law
What sugya is this question referring to?
Well most of them they don't even drive their cars or answer their phones..however it's a humanity thing when you see someone who needs help and just do what's possible to help... it's a good deeds in the end..Good Shabath.
Thumbs up for both your comments!
Chana Bayla Plenty are but Shireen seems intelligent, well thought out & tries to be respectful!
@Chana Bayla Relax Chana. Shireen is clearly expressing good will and good judgement; Why not return the favor?
anyone that wouldn't try to save a life under those circumstances would be a stinker of a person. its like I have a friend and her dress caught on fire and her father pulled her dress off . normally you wouldn't pull your daughters dress off but it was either do that or she would have serious life threatening burns. So normally keeping shabbat is the right thing for jews to do but if you saw someone dying you should do your best to save them . people need to use common sense you can go back to keeping shabbat after the emergency is over knowing that your a good kind person
if there would be any human, religious or non-religious, who say "I wouldn't save a dying person in that case", that would be a big shame and inhumanity! Actually, this is a very weird question. No matter what your life vision is, you should save a person in danger.
This reminds me of the story of the Good Samaritan (Brit Chadasha)
I think the more interesting line of questioning would be what if a person is going to become paralyzed, lose a limb, lose a finger, chip a nail, where that line is.
But also, it would be very rare that the threat as well as its likelihood are clear, same for the life or death question
Note rare, there are many religious medical workers.
In 1966 the Rabanut in Jerusalem, published a clarification, due to a lie spread by an Evil anti Israel liar, Israel Shahak, they clarified that religious medical stuff (as Doctors' e.g.) can work on Shabbat.
Ichud Atzalah ar ultra Orthodox rescue teams, the work on Shabbat, of course, saving any life:
israelrescue.org/
Probably at permanent harm and something that might possibly lead to permanent harm.
This was filmed on shabbat?? That should be stated in the beginning.
But as far as pikuach nefesh (to save a soul), the law is clear. A nefesh (soul), is a soul. Jew or gentile. One has an imperative to save someone's life!
i like your programs but this question is ridiculous because you can desecrate Shabbat to save any life.
Israelis seem like good people to me.
GlobalMan They do more for the world than the whole Arab world 10 times over.
Arabs also🤠🇵🇸🇮🇱👌👌👻👻👻
This should be addressed only to religious Jews that observe shabbat - seems like common sense, no? Obviously, people that do not observe shabbat in the first place will desecrate it to save a life.
Absolutely no questions asked.

WHAT?! He literally just said that no, he doesn't know, and gave an in depth answer anyway! You sound like you don't listen to the people you are interviewing!

At that season Jesus went on the sabbath day through the grainfields; and his disciples were hungry and began to pluck ears and to eat. But the Pharisees, when they saw it, said unto him, Behold, thy disciples do that which it is not lawful to do upon the sabbath. But he said unto them, Have ye not read what David did, when he was hungry, and they that were with him; how he entered into the house of God, and ate the showbread, which it was not lawful for him to eat, neither for them that were with him, but only for the priests? Or have ye not read in the law, that on the sabbath day the priests in the temple profane the sabbath, and are guiltless? But I say unto you, that one greater than the temple is here. But if ye had known what this meaneth, I desire mercy, and not sacrifice, ye would not have condemned the guiltless. And he departed thence, and went into their synagogue: and behold, a man having a withered hand. And they asked him, saying, Is it lawful to heal on the sabbath day? that they might accuse him. And he said unto them, What man shall there be of you, that shall have one sheep, and if this fall into a pit on the sabbath day, will he not lay hold on it, and lift it out? How much then is a man of more value than a sheep! Wherefore it is lawful to do good on the sabbath day. Then saith he to the man, Stretch forth thy hand. And he stretched it forth; and it was restored whole, as the other. But the Pharisees went out, and took counsel against him, how they might destroy him. And Jesus perceiving it withdrew from thence: and many followed him; and he healed them all, and charged them that they should not make him known: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through Isaiah the prophet, saying, Behold, my servant whom I have chosen; My beloved in whom my soul is well pleased: I will put my Spirit upon him, And he shall declare judgment to the Gentiles. He shall not strive, nor cry aloud; Neither shall any one hear his voice in the streets. A bruised reed shall he not break, And smoking flax shall he not quench, Till he send forth judgment unto victory. And in his name shall the Gentiles hope.

I am an ultra Orthodox Jew and this is just a dumb question. Jews believe that every human being has a part of
God in them. Every person is a child of God.
Also- 99% of the time- you are able to save someone without desecrating Shabbat. Especially if you do it with a little bit of a difference. Ex- using left hand instead of right.
Advice, keep only one caption.
You can turn off the extra captions in the video settings menu
@@NotQuiteFirst It would make sense for Corey to disable the auto-captioning by default when he publishes.
The man @ 7:35 is correct, Corey didn’t ask many Orthodox Jews, mostly “proud” secular Jews who don’t even know the Talmud.
Is Corey Gil-Shuster avoiding Orthodox Jews by not going to areas they frequent, or he is just randomly asking people on the street?
Given that Orthodox Jews only make up 13% of the Israeli population, and 42% are secular, which makes sense of the responses he received.
It would have been beneficial to see more Talmud educated responses from Orthodox Jews to get a better understanding, however it was good to see the average Jew cares about saving a Gentile’s life.
Maybe I judged an Austrian painter too harshly
If you will forgive me, Corey, it is not always certain that non-Jews will understand what is meant by "desecrate the Sabbath". Although other religions may have their day of rest", the Sabbath has many additional connotations that other folk simply might not understand.
One obvious instance of saving a life is calling for an ambulance. You don't need any special qualifications to do this, though normally making a telephone call is considered breaking the Sabbath.
Everything said here is way over simplistic. Corey, why didn't you ask Rabbi Breitowitz? As mentioned, the Hatzolah and Zaka organizations, which are "ultra-Orthodox" make no distinction between Jew and non-Jew and are the greatest professional emergency medical teams on earth (they also train many other organizations in life saving techniques) at saving lives. However, a Jewish individual who is not trained in EMS, has to be more careful about attempting to save a non-Jew than a Jew. What if he fails? Jews would not blame him to be deliberately unsuccessful at saving a Jew, but many gentiles, especially Arabs, because of the hostilities, may claim the Jew had no intention to save their fellow Arab and took the opportunity to hasten his death. If that case is a potential, it is probably better not to get involved, regardless of whether on Shabbat or a weekday.
Mark 2:27-28
And He said to them, "The Sabbath was made for man, and not man for the Sabbath. Therefore the Son of Man is also Lord of the Sabbath."

What a stupid question. Excuse me ma'am before I save you, can you tell me your religion please? Wat??
It is lawful to do good on the sabbath.
Another time Jesus went into the synagogue, and a man with a shriveled hand was there. Some of them were looking for a reason to accuse Jesus, so they watched him closely to see if he would heal him on the Sabbath. Jesus said to the man with the shriveled hand, “Stand up in front of everyone.”
Then Jesus asked them, “Which is lawful on the Sabbath: to do good or to do evil, to save life or to kill?” But they remained silent.
He looked around at them in anger and, deeply distressed at their stubborn hearts, said to the man, “Stretch out your hand.” He stretched it out, and his hand was completely restored. Then the Pharisees went out and began to plot with the Herodians how they might kill Jesus.
Jesus was a mamzer.
