What about the people working at grocery stores stocking shelves and cashiers are also the heros not being spoken of ! THANK YOU !
I popped into Sainsbury's on my way home and whilst checking out asked the cashier if she'd had a break...she smiled ruefully...
Yes there are many unsung heroes. If nothing else, we can say a kind word and give a broad smile - lifting the mask momentarily if necessary!
MeE
True enough, the grocery stores won't close because it's a life necessity, but they should be trying to take precautions and protect the employees.
@@yakplanet42.. And they get paid...??.. Double time...???.. Plenty of people want jobs mate.
The worst of us? The panic buying hoarders! They should be ashamed of themselves.
No. The supermarkets are. Bandits and profiteers.
What a very sensible and wise man, very much respect him and his attitude
"we have too much individualism too much liberal democracy and too little concern for the collective of the nation and of humanity as a whole, we have talk far too much about rights and far too little about responsibilities" well said!! THANK YOU!
Nick Penn that’s what globalism and multiculturalism bring you.
I believe this is almost an identical quote of Juan Peron - Ironic that the Rabbi shares the same view of liberalism as Oswald Mosley, Mussolini, Peron and all other 'fascist' leaders.
Ironically, the most liberal countries in the world start to apply authoritarian methods to deal with the current situation.
@Jacob L I would have though it obvious - selfishness, greed, the focus of individual 'rights' instead of social obligation to the community, this list is endless...
Jacob L don’t be an idiot, engage.
B"H Rabbi Sacks, you are awake. May HE give you many blessings and more words of wisdom. Amen From the other side of the pond, I am awake.
A very interesting man speaking a lot of quite deep thoughts in an easy to understand way. In my view he ought to temporarilly take over the media for a balanced approach rather than the usual hysteria that is uttered
Bring us back to the real values in life
But what about likes on Instagram facebook and youtube ??? What about all the insta models? What about all the youtubers?
Too true where is the vile horrible people now I feel for all decent people it's an omen u can run but there's no where to hide karma to all the scum on earth
Hunter gathers community will return, because of lack of trust
I think so too.
Yeah the world needed a shake up
We always speak of collective responsibility when faced with a crisis. As soon as it past we forget about it.
Speak for yourself. I am consistent. Remember Eyam? Ha! Maitlis just mentioned it as I had the thought.
Yes Asian Flu 1957 nobody talked about that
Rabbi Sacks wrote "Morality", a book about collective responsibility, BEFORE coronavirus!
Most wise person. Corona will change our lives after it´s gone. Money will lose its importance. Living just for the fun of it will diminish. Family members will come closer. Moral values and the feeling of responsibility will come back. It is difficult not to see the Almighty telling us "Live as I told you and you will be alright"! There is a time after Corona.
This response implies blame. I don't feel I want to listen to a god who is not protecting us from the ills of life. He/she seems a pretty cruel god, to me. That's if there is a god to start with........................
Religion is not armour or a security blanket.@@andrearussell7306
Yes it’s warning people the dangers of eating animals and cruelty no planes so climate change no noise pollution for weeks or months even and cruise ships have flaws in them too that spread the virus why did the cruises go to Asia when the virus was there in January?
This pestilence is God's punishment for our sins (democracy, patriotism, nationalism, populism, Brexit, right wing political thinking). It's spread cannot be explained by science but rather the judging hand of the almighty who casts his shadow over the uncontrite. The unrighteous are getting what a life of sin deserves for no sin goes without it's vengeance. To quote Frollo from the Disney film Hunchback of Notre Dame: 'I am a rigtheous man and of my virtue I am justly proud' - I am a God fearing man, I go to church, read scripture divine, I refuse to read newspapers and avoid the media, I remain apolitical for there is separation between Church and state and I am with Christ's church utterly for 'a slave cannot have two masters' thus I have never once committed the sin of voting. I have nothing to fear from God's judgement for he will find no fault with me and I shall not contract his plague for I have placed my faith in Christ. I encourage all to do the same. God have mercy on you. God has already spared me. Believe or be cast into the fire. Amen.
@The truth hurts the old generation are being punished for their sins. How then could they have done anything right in the eyes of the LORD?
Thanks 🙏 Rabbi, I really enjoyed listening to you , what you express it was so spiritual and true . I am a Muslim and true Muslim they respect Judaism ✡️ and believe in Mosses peace upon him so much. I am also Iranian and we have a lot of Jewish Iranian’s . I was lucky enough to go to a beautiful and historical Synagogue 🕍 in Iran . Every thing you said was beautiful and so true. When Corona is over I love to come and listen to you . Thanks 🙏 for your help and good words .
God bless you 💕🙏
If you were Iranian. You would probably be more upset about the people who create medical sanctions on your country. And get upset about the neocons, howling in glee at what it's doing the Iranian people.
Beautiful words RR I am a Christian and send Almighty God's Blessings and peace to be with you
I agree. I'm jewish....
Now we are all one....
We’re at war with a invisible enemy, the worst kind of enemy!

The opposition hasn't changed. The rich profiteers, the Tories still rake in their super staggering profits.
RIP This great deep thinking man.
He's so right in what he says. I've been thinking most of the same things through the last few weeks, there's truly an upside of down, let's hope we lose as few as possible and learn as much as we can out of this.
Thank you to anyone working with or in the public. Especially those in the medical field, bless you
I wish I were as well spoken, composed and educated as this man
You can achieve that.
Calming insights from Rabbi Sacks. Sadly his spirit of humanity, solidarity and optimism does not reach commentators on social media (yes, here for example). This is not about Brexit or the General Election. This is not about taking different sides. It is not even an argument. So I don't understand why many feel the need to make wholly negative comments that brings everyone down.
So sad because this should change mankind but my feel8ng is once the panic is over everyone will become selfish self obsessed again
Was jus thinkin the same..may Allah bless u..Ameen
Was jus thinkin the same
No matter what, we must stay strong.
We should be more brave than ever before.
I have a feeling soon everything will be ok. We are not alone in this struggle.

Thank you Pierce Brosnan for your words of wisdom
Thank you for correcting selflessness (
The UK could emulate the UK in paying every British a minimum basic income of GBP1000 and child 50% of that figure per month for the duration of the crisis. This is not to substract from the package the government has announced for helping businesses.
We all know there's no turning back once it's done. Or maybe that's the plan all along

RIP Rabbi Sacks
Great interview, very uplifting.
7:05 - thanks for accurately reporting that this generation faces levels of inequality similar to the 1930's with such compassion.
Star Dragon Really? There are more working people in poverty than non-working. I don’t think the inequality is working out so well for them.
Star Dragon “You are not poor”
Compared to who? A North Korean? That’s not how we define poverty.
“Prove it”
No problem. This is the report I had in mind when I made my comment. I read it back in 2013, however I can’t imagine the situation has improved any.
In the 2011-12 period, the amount of earnings before a household was said to be in poverty was £128 a week for a single adult; £172 for a single parent with one child; £220 for a couple with no children, and £357 for a couple with two children.
Assessing Department for Work and Pensions figures, the report's authors found working adults without dependent children were the most likely group to be living in poverty.

Star Dragon There is a “we” you ignorant buffoon. That “we” is the United Kingdom. When did I define poverty as inequality? Can you read properly? Show me where I said poverty = inequality. Quote me.
I did not say that the 2011-12 definition of a household in poverty was proof of there being more employed families in poverty than unemployed. Are you a moron? I was informing you of how poverty is defined in the United Kingdom. It’s not your absurdly simplistic definition of not having a home, food, or electricity. Only a person starving to death lives in poverty? Utterly preposterous.
The evidence of what I said regarding the rise of poverty in working families was contained within the report I referred you to. That’s how we prove things, we cite sources. Go and read it again; you might learn something. I doubt it though.
See if you can comprehend this. More evidence for you.

The stfu lol
You're asking where your point of view is? Mate, sit back down and write it out. No one is going to hand it to you. (then again, your're also asking if you are English. If you don't know, then, well...)
It´s yours. Think it, give it structure and write it. As a druid you probably follow Nature. The message is the same.
The ever-wise Rabbi Jonathan Sacks - the right man, publishing the right book at the right time.

I am an atheist but I like listening to him. He is a good man. Hope more religious people are like him.
I am a Dutchman, and came across this by chance, he talks about himself, finds himself very important, only hear bullshit, hahahahahahaha
Just wash ur hands 👍
I think they have why no discussions about all the spiritual texts point of view
Amazing speech👍 God bless you Rabbi and your family, stay safe and carry on spreading the good words.
This man knows the truth
There are some really daft posts here - it is incredible how some people don't know right from wrong, good from bad & so on. I like Jonathan Sacks - this isn't an earth shattering interview but he's a good guy - not sensationalist - down to earth. He also has a soothing voice. Mind you, I'm not a god person - or particularly religious though I guess I am culturally Jewish. He's not really saying anything that hasn't been heard before but it's anyway uplifting. In times likes this, it's good to hear stuff that makes good sense.
It is not always what is said that is important but the way it is being said. I am not Jewish but respect this man's interview here
10:27 OMG what are you suggesting exactly??
Why are we getting advise from this Rabbi, instead of experts who actually have a good understanding of how these type of viruses work and its impact on society?
because he is closer to this than mets the eye. Emily is practically wetting herself talking to him
@@bartlemy how so?
Who is keeping you from getting medical advice?
Because society drinks on that political coolaid in the post war period!
Adrian R because we are occupied by a foreign elite.

The world needed a shake up
Mother earth is healing it's her turn now..
They aren't "hero's". They work or they go home with nothing...they signed up for a job so its part of working hourly. Part of life. True heros are those retired wanting to help medical places working for free and expose themselves for the love of people. Grocery workers work fir the check like anyone of us do or we end up broke. Heros are ones willing to die for others without expecting anything in return. I was a grocery worker for 7 years...so i can speak fir those that do this job....they do it for the check....just like uber and lyft drivers that dont get paid if they dont drive and risk harm. Hell lyft and uber drivers are more closer to heros; they are forced to work or they ho broke instantly. They dont get workers compensation ect. They dont even get paid sick leave. They are truly struggling now cause nobody wants to work. I spoke to one last week and he said he waited at airport all day for only 4 rides for nearly 14 hours and got paid less than 40$. He said nobody wants to travel or request rides anymore. Everybody wants delivery rides making it very hard to get request as a uber or lyft rider cause every rideshare driver doing it. Those uber and lyft drivers are hurting the most ...they dont get rides they go broke...but really 14 hours for $32 bucks mainly just waiting???? And you say grocery workers that got FULL BENEFITS are the real heros? Lol they guaranteed money if they go sick and got lots of benefits. Uber and lyft drivers deserve more praise
Are the way people behaving at supermarkets an example of that change?
Sensitive people cannot help but remain sensitive. Cynical, arrogant people will remain on their own island. If the crisis may have instigated one thing, it is revealing the ethical disparity of those we should be wary of.
What a loss to us all! His Neshama should have an Aliya!
Thank God for Rabbi Sacks providing measured moral/faith leadership....compare with present Chief Rabbi and Archbishop of Canterbury.
too much individualism. a little concern collective of the nation .. CORRECT..
I find the volume in.most of the videos by Rabbi Sacks is too low. Is it possible to raise the volume?
There is a progarm called VLC that can. You click Media...Open network streeam. Then enter the youtube URL and it plays the video and you can up the volume much more.
@@boliussa thanks. I have that program. I mostly listen.on my phone . Is that possible on a mobile?
@@marciem2498 I haven't tried this but there's an app called "super high volume" with 100K downloads. And various apps related to increasing volume
@@boliussa I'll investigate. Thabks
Actually governments, states, parties don't think about nation, they think about power ..I hope corona virus will be helpful .. thanks
Everyone is hero somehow. Don't assume that social status can define the qualities of a person. 😎

You are fantastic
Self isolating from televisions and religions
It's a very different matter when you can't physically be near other people. It's more akin to the cold war than the war. Reds under the bed mentality. You need to interview a psychologist because this man is over optimistic.
Bde
@11:53 ms Maitlis relates to us living in the fear of god, when you consider 2 world wars where the mainstay religions involved would fight their own religious neigbours, one cannot say or include this as a fear of god in heaven or divine consequences but a fear of human government or establishment, I believe it not to be true in this sense
Rabbi Sacks i we appreciate your words but I am afraid to say this may prove to be considerably different and worse than any conventional human war. The term from history would call this a potential "human civilization changer" if so i really hope for the good.
What’s in it for me, instant self gratification, 5his selfish mentality is rife, it became the norm, and we r about to meet the actual reality of the human psyche. Patience is about to become the virtue it is.
Life is way too monotonous and shit now, science has disposed of the idea of us actually going back to our roots, trust me
For many yes, I’m glad I had the knowledge passed to me when I was young.

As time passes, people will have to wake up and come the realisation that something massive has, and is still happening. The realisation that we are all linked up...the interconnectedness of all things. Like it or not, In future, there will be no place for *I, MY AND ME* only *WE US AND OURS* . (And that doesn’t just mean your immediate nearest and dearest either!). Just saying and not hating ok.

A warning.
99% of all forms of life have become extinct yet here we are on a planet full of life so we and the rest of the things we see is 1 % of what has existed.
If you cant work out that nothing dies it just changes from the current information please feel free to continue to crack on stressing out placing importance on things of no real importance.
I personally believe that a billion or more years of whatever it is doing keeping life going seems to have what needs to happen well under control.
As opposed to a few hundred years of studying and experimenting to find out the truth in an effort to become God's or rather thier idea of Gods and look at the thousands of gods man kind has created in his imagination?.. In essence we all already gods we do not have to do anything just live as humans they just want attention like anyone does.
If the entire human race died tomorrow what would be the concern then?
there's no brain or nervous system to receive information it's gone so what the hell is to worry about theres no suffering after this no heaven hell its a recycling unit the energy that goes is used to create something else that's how it is and always has been.
Since when has death become a problem it's absolutely essential to life everything is born and everything dies what sort of lunatic thinks anything different?
It's insanity.
Stop stressing out and fictionalizing reality with concepts.
Please don't come to my neighborhood.
This pestilence is God's punishment for our sins (democracy, patriotism, nationalism, populism, Brexit, right wing political thinking).

I have nothing to fear from God's judgement for he will find no fault with me and I shall not contract his plague for I have placed my faith in Christ. I encourage all to do the same. God have mercy on you. God has already spared me. Believe or be cast into the fire. Amen.
Jesus Chist shed His holy blood on that cross for you. All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. The punishment for sin is death and without being washed clean in Jesus's blood you will die in your sins. But Jesus came to save usif we repent and turn back to Him. Ask Him for forgiveness and He will give you strength to turn your life around. Jesus is alive, He rose from the dead in His glorified body. He will hear you, just seek and you will find.
Excellent commentary!
How is his opinion relevant.
He is a respected public intelectual and religious figure. I find him akin to Rowan Williams.
