    It takes real bravery to be your true Jewish self like this man is. Really worth watching the whole thing.

      Yes I agree with you, bravery is a necessity strength to be different, to be real in this make believe world. I my self at the age of almost seventy, having only just been reassured of my Jewish Heritage, have found the transition back to the Jewish Way objectionable to my other family members, none the less I have and will continue to be brave and be the best Jewish woman I can be.

      @@pamelawarwick1071 I think I know what you mean. I'm nowhere close to 70, so the family members with objections are the same ones whose grandparents ran from pogroms rather than give up their heritage. It's sad, but that anti-semitism worked. They forgot how to keep kosher, how to pray, how to do tefillin, etc. Maybe this is what Judaism needs right now: a younger, more energetic crowd to make sure the torch gets passed in this relay race through time.

    Thank you for tour always inspiring talk and also for the yom Kippur Song, which lnever heard before even though l went many times to YonKippur services. And l started crying deeply and l m still crying now as l am writing to you and l dont know why.... Maybe hearing the voice of a man singing his purpose, maybe l heard God singing through your body, may u be blessed with 180 years of a purposeful life . I have all your books but not found my purpose... And will be 80 y young in three months. Thank you for yr daily talk. Why wont you sing everytime you speak to us.. U have a butiful voice that uplifts the soul

    Rabbi,
    Thank you for bringing up this issue.
    Here's my take on it.
    For example, if you step foot in Israel today, you'll see that more people than you think are craving Torah. This includes those Jews whom we call 'Masorti'...traditional.
    The Torah they crave does not emanate from the reform or conservative movements. They do in fact crave an authentic Torah...in all its totality and vitality.
    But it has to be the Torah of 2019...ie the Hebrew year 5779. And it has to come in "packaging" designed for the year 5779.
    There's even an element of Israeli society that is now blending, at the very least stylistically speaking, the Torah of 2019 with the Torah of 135 A.D. (Something our prophets and sages spoke about.)
    But one thing is for certain: those same people do NOT want the packaging of the 1700s or 1800s.
    Because these supposedly "secular" Jews, complete with their very healthy neshamas, understand subconsciously (or maybe even consciously) that it is the packaging of the exile...which has been over, at least on a physical level, for roughly a century.
    It is a packaging that does not seek to deal with the present nor the future (Once again, in an honest and authentic way. Not watered-down.)
    Instead, it seeks to simply sweep the present realities under the rug...all the while wondering why their youth fall by the wayside en masse...while they themselves are seen as irrelevant relics , thereby making the Torah seem that way by extension.
    And as we all know, the Torah is neither irrelevant nor a relic.

    Praying there will be a Rabbi soon that follows through with God's plan. Others have visited me, but Antisemitism still present in America. Waiting on my wife to feel safe to spend time with me once the local politics allow this promise to God between Jewish and Hassidic to stop being prevented by those who are not of the same frequency of Pull..... I'm use to dealing with ....

      what is Arabic for "Praise" Ali Ahasan? Impartially for G-D Shall Save, Truth Of Peace On G-D Created earth, of Nations, of every Kindred, the Languages, Ethnicity, G-D ONLY Saves, G-D IS ONLY JUDGE OF EVERY FIBER OF HUMANKIND CONCERNS?
      Who is the only not Created, Begotten Son Of The One True G-D?
      Who wished to by involved in city purposed, relented on a type of Molech co joined helping with Ashetera, heeding, and said G-D gave, him, Praise as named, that to test 'you?'
      Who claimed that, Holy Matrimony Union Marriage, is bigamy?
      Who used 'secret' knowledge to 640 year of the ONE TRUE LORD, previously unlawful, - The One True G-D does not change G-D'S MIND FOR ANY Created human entire inclusive fiber of Being.
      So, in English vernacular, I, Joseph Paul Birth Certificate Surname Cimino, also known by Legal Official Last-name Pelaez, the I, me, myself as one Created devout gentleman steward, has three main states of being.
      Simple offered food for discernment.
      Peace.

    I agree with everything Rabbi Simon Jacobson says. But the source of the relativistic morality of today's "modern" world, is the French Revolution, not the Enlightenment. The French Revolution dealt the most profound blow to traditional values of any other influence or force, in the history of Europe.

      in ONLY G-D SENDS TRUSTWORTHINESS TO CREATION TO LIVE IN harmonized shalom, you are highly mistaken.
      Since, the Hebrew kindred have 12, family heritages, thus legacies, who are you to claim a carte blanch declaration. Who is "Garmal Addel Nasser," to proclaim such a harmful condescending preoperative disparaging pejorative definitive so called claim, was it from humankind strength, intelligence, self-willed only, or by The Divinely Granted Harmonized Into Creation unearned by humankind entire fiber of Being, Y-H-V-H WHO IS THE LORD ETERNAL IMMORTAL LIVING ONE TRUE GOD BENEVOLENT RULING KING-SOVEREIGN ROYALTY TOTALITY MAJESTIC OVER CREATION & ETERNITY OF EVERY INCLUSIVE VISIBLE AND INVISIBLE IN HAPPENSTANCE OF DIVINELY GRANTED PROVIDENCE,
      WHO IS THE HOLY ANOINTED PROCEEDING SPIRIT OF GOD THAT SENT THE ONLY NOT CREATED BEGOTTEN SON, Jesus The True Messiah Of Bethlehem, the city/town of bread? Peace, surpassing merely humankind fiber of Being understanding, not as the world gives, ref. The One True Holy Bible of The Holy Scriptural Divinely Inspired Inerrant Word Of GOD, for true integrity trustworthiness entire fiber of humankind inclusive fiber of Being.
      Only GOD Grants Peace And Justice Embraced Strengthening confidence watering completeness oil of gladness.
      Have a Godliness day, that THE ONE TRUE LORD HATH MADE, to be rejoicing and glad in it. Ref. Psalm 118.
