Did you know that there are less than 15 million Jews in the world, which make up only 0.2% of the world's population?
As someone who was born and raised Jewish, but didn't really practice the religion after getting a Bar Mitzvah -- I have recently found a deeper connection with Judaism through traveling.
I really enjoy connecting with fellow Jews in far away countries, and observing how they practice their traditions.
In today's video, I bring you to Gondar (Ethiopia), Kabul (Afghanistan) and Manila (Philippines) to hear about 3 of my favorite stories about Judaism!
Are there any other Jews out there?

Seeing the little girl in the Ethiopian village again and wow, impressed with her intelligence and knowledge of the historical site
100th Liked
She is proud of her heritage. She's a wonderful soul.
Ethiopians are very intelligent (and beautiful too).
What a cute little girl! I pray she fulfills her dream of becoming a doctor!!
May God bless her, she's such a beautiful soul ❤
As a Muslim, I feel mad at Taliban for destroying Zablon's Torah and forced him to convert into Islam. It just gives bad image to us. I feel bad for him,I understand the feeling when someone tried to block you from your religion. Even in Islam, we have been taught that you can't forced people to convert. If they want it,fine but if they don't want it, it's okay. The one who decide your life is yourself.
I'm glad that Zablon is proud to be an Afghani and Jews at the same time
I am proud to become a Muslim and I respect all of religions in the world
Love from a Muslim from Malaysia ❤️
wow ....i was thinking all Malaysian Muslim would think negatively about Jews ...bcz of the influence from media as well as politics . you have a mature mindset as a Muslim !
CJ Khor yep most of us actually respect you
@Muzamil Nawaz not all americans watch fox news.
Same here
JustANormalHuman dont provoke that name, he's one of our prophets
As an afghan i wish my country would be peaceful again and be a safe place for all kinds of people whether they are jews or muslims or any other religion.☺
Inshallah
@AZG do you know what they are going through everyday they are losing people in there family and everyone wants to be safe you might be safe in the place you live but they are going through a lot I feel bad for them I wish they have freedom
Sulaiman bhai.. People of Afghanistan are always good and peace loving.. A section of people doesn't represent sentiment of whole Afghanistan. Afghanistan is a country containing some million people and most most most of them are very nice.
yeah inshaaAllaah,under talib_an rule, it would be like prophet's madina.if Allaah wills
@@tawseeftaher4446 what about the dying people of Hazar, destroying huge Bamiyan statues,.basic human rights of women in Afghanistan? How can u preach hardline Jihadists?
Drew I am a Muslim ☪.... But I really love and respect you and the way you have shown Judaism.... It insprise & respect all of them..... Love & respect... You are a true inspirational to this world
I am Muslim from Morocco and I respect all of religions in the wolrd. I love this video😍
0:06 Little Drew was so cute!
I'm muslim and i respect jews and every religion in the world
I'm from USA. The number of Americans who do not identify with any religion continues to grow at a rapid pace. In The Pew Research Center study conducted in 2018 and 2019, only 65% of American adults describe themselves as "Christian" when asked about their religion, a decrease of 12 percentage points over the past decade. Meanwhile, the "religiously unaffiliated" share of the population, consisting of people who describe their religious identity as atheist, agnostic or “nothing in particular,” is now 26%, up from 17% in 2009.
J D your point is???

Love and blessings to my Jewish brothers.
From a Muslim brother
thanks. love and blessing to you to from a Jewish brother
Love and blessings to you too my brother from an Argentinean jewish living in Israel.
I’m adopted from Ethiopia, I watched you and told my family that I want to visit every country as well. It’s my goal! Thank you Drew!
How's that goal going so far?
The Jewish guy is Afghanistan is really an inspiring story
English has left the chat
*” The Jewish man from Afghanistan has really an inspiring story” , my friend. Personally, I do not like people, who just mock on the language skills instead of correcting and teaching a person.
@@napoleon1232 myeah at least he tried
i hope hes ok
Much love from this Iranian Jew 🕎🇮🇷. Also, there is a Jewish cemetery in Georgetown on Penang Island in Malaysia. It's worth checking out!
So we muslim and Jews can be friends 😃
Iranian Jew? Please tell that to all the people that say Muslims will kill other religious people. Iran is misunderstood because their leaders are douches.
@@Jack209 respect you bro
@@Jack209 You know it's bad when the fact that he is still alive while being jewish is supposed to show how peaceful iran is
スパイダーマン there is no war tho
Im Muslim and recently so open to know about judaism since we have a lot in commun
Yes! I've been learning about Islam in my Jewish studies classes and it's remarkable how many things are similar with Judaism and Islam! And to think that the two have been enemies for hundreds of years... Sad.
@@squidjpeg9925 Yea I was born christian but I've studied Islam for a few years and I can't believe how alike they are. Long ago they used to live together before the age of "terrorism"
Islam is just a copy of Torah and Bible
Kevicselie Sekhose no it isn’t
Kevicselie Sekhose stop with ur bs
To all my Jews brothers and sisters . Love from India 🇮🇳🇮🇳
Love Jewish people...i wish india had 20 crore jews insted of 20 crore muslim population
Priyanka Christina yikes seems kinda discriminatory, I love Jewish people as much as you but instead of wishing for Indian Muslims not to exist you can wish for both to exist in your country.
@@abontichowdhury5104 Imagine respecting one and wanting them to replace the other. You have Hitler's ideology
@@no-px7bk yeah kerela right

I was heart warmed from the amount of the supporting Muslims in the comments, peace!
Thanks im muslim too but i respect every religion and im just 13 years old but i was taught when i was young not to hate or disrespect any religion or anyone i know some muslims are bad but you cant blame the whole religion of islam cause every religion has good and bad people and if i do a mistake dont blame my religion and belief blame me
@Elias Zeller aww thanks you are so nice and kind
I was thinking the same thing. Muslims are amazing!!
@@Rfpepe7295 thank you ur so humble and nice
I am secular to the bone, but hearing Zablon's story just made me cry. Dude went through Hell because of the Taliban. :(
Such a wholesome and wise man.
Everyone who are against them are going to the hell.
Jewish people went trough a lot
In history ,much support for you
SEGO thank you :)
@@egononcogito2590 hehhe no problem my fwend :D
Thanks
Wow that little girl just melted my heart. She is so cute. Her knowledge is amazing.
It’s amazing how much they have in common with Muslims and Islam.
Real brothers and sisters we are! ❤️
I wish Zablon is still safe after all the recent events in Afghanistan.
There are also many jews here in Sao Paulo, Brazil, and fun fact, they get along with the Lebanese community very well. Next time you come here, come check it out.
Drew: Wants to make a video

Love from India
arent you the kids of the cow?
Yeah dude
@@OfficialSahas isn't the cow considered like a mother in India?
@@OfficialSahas i see
@@OfficialSahas many Muslims are killed in India for eating beef. Tbh, most cows are put in these things for their 'safety' from getting killed. Unfortunately, they may roam around without getting killed and usually they aren't taken care for or aren't even fed.
Dear Drew
The sweetness of your saoul and you open mind is an example to follow to increase awareness in people's mind.
You're so young but so wise.
This video is a masterpiece.
Thank you my son.
I am Jewish through my mother. I belong to the synagogue in Santiago de Cuba, where I worked for a Canadian tour company. I’m also a world traveller from Canada. Your videos, from a cultural perspective, are the best! Keep up the good work, Drew.
amazing video Drew, you are one of the best content creators not just in CZcams or this decade but all time in any platform. This unique. Creative work🙏🏽👏🏼👏🏼.
The Ethiopian girls melted my heart. They are BRILLIANT and brave not shy at all very proud , just beautiful. You had 11 yrs old tour guides better than your professional tour guide you typical have on this channel. Best story ever!!!!!
Hey i am catholic and i am from the philippines and i like seeing my country on your vids
Lots of love man. I'm Muslim and love all your videos. Thank you for sharing this content and teaching people about these beautiful communities ✌🏼
Drew that is super awesome! I think that is so great you visited them and are helping the world see their lives and connection to Judaism, as well as their rich heritage! Well done!
i was so inspired by the testimony of these three Jewish men from different countries .......the moral lesson i've learned from them were their persistence in which i believe is the key to success in winning the hearts of people. its friday today and the sun is almost set so, it is shabbat already. Happy Sabbath!
Love this, how we can connect no matter how far, because of our shared cultural heritage
My moms father was Jewish. I wish I had the opportunity to learn more about his life and faith before he passed away. I just learned recently he was born a Russian Jew. As my mother did a family tree on ancestry. I love videos like this! He was buried in a Jewish cemetery in Mexico. He spend every winter there for 40 years to beat the cold here in Canada! ❤️
10:39 I’m a Muslim and when u said they forced him to become Muslim made me sad because I hate people who force others to become Muslim and I hope Allah punishes the Taliban may our Jewish brother live in peace ❤
They even banned girls from going to school which is not part of Islam
The world is full of interesting stories and spiring people. Thank you Drew for bringing them to us!
I meant "inspiring"
Hey Drew, I’m a Jewish young adult from Phoenix, Arizona just as you are from Arizona and are Jewish too. This is so awesome that you got to see a Jewish community in Ethiopia.

This guy has gone to the Philippines more than I have and I'm half Filipino.
#DrewBinsky I could binge-watch your videos for days! You make everything informative and enjoyable. I don't know how you manage to squeeze all the details in less than 10 minutes. I am also happy that Ethiopia is your favorite place to visit in Africa. Thank you for mentioning Bete Israel of Ethiopia. Amesegenalew! 😀
That Afghani Jewish old man made tears in my eyes.... He don't want to leave his country despite all ordeal he faced..... Big salute
Amazing video dear Drew,Shavua Tov
How did they get the rocks to be blue? That's so cool!
And, 2:28, I wish this wonderful, determined girl much success in her dreams.

It only happen that I stumbled to this channel, beacause I love to learn the culture, places, people and religion. This is the channel that I really like to subscribe. Thanks for having found this channel.
Hi Drew I love your videos there very inspiring and it's really cool that you get to experience kind hearted people and their culture and traditions
This was awesome! These types of stories are exactly why I love traveling, I don’t think I’ve ever been anywhere where my preconceived notions weren’t proven incorrect.
Thank you for amazing stories, I was really impressed, especially by that senior man in Kabul, he is such a strong person.
Love and respect to all Jewish people from Azerbaijan 🇦🇿🇮🇱
Azerbaijan is a fantastic country, especially the people, love from 🇺🇸
@@mrplasma7094 omg hey
he is not Jew he's messianic christian scammers pretending to be Jews they're scammers number 1
I once knew a couple of Jewish families from Baku, Azerbaijan, who had immigrated to the US. As an American Jew, it was really interesting. We were very different, yet the same.
Great video drew! I have been watching you since early 2019 and I have watched every video since. Keep up the great work drew!
Thanks for sharing I'm from Philippines working as caregiver here in Jerusalem
You are my favourite travelling inspiration. Looking forward to meet you soon after the pandemic. Love from India
I converted to Judaism 26 years ago, and while I love my faith and practice it daily, I have nothing but love for Islam and Muslims. It is a truly beautiful faith.
Shalom Drew Binsky😍
Great video Drew, I visited a Synagogue in Myanmar in Yangon, its maintained by the last 2 Jews in Myanmar, pretty amazing.
Hey drew , if i had to visit only 1 African country which one will u recommend ( i am not planning to go , just curious )
I find the Ethiopian Judaism so interesting. It’s pretty fascinating how they have different practices, and were isolated for so long. Glad they found their way home to Israel.
Watching this with Tears of both happiness and sadness ..
I really enjoyed this! Fascinating. I thought I discovered something exotic when I found an old synagogue in Yangon, Myanmar (Rangoon, Burma).
Brother i am from INDIA. Indian Christian people are praying for your salvation.
Amen
המשיח לא הגיע. הוא יבוא לשלוט בעולם המושלם רק כשבני נח ויהודים יגיעו אליו. וממלכה/מדינה יהודית בארץ ישראל היא הכרח. דבר ה' שמעו כולם. בנייה מחדש של בית המקדש. אז משיח ישלוט.
The last Jew of Afghanistan is more closer to Arabs than the Afghanistanis (in terms of relation)
Wow...this is very interesting!
Loving you travel visa, Drew. Another travel vlogger here missing travelling so much
You should try seeing and making a story about the Jews in Sulawesi, Indonesia Drew
Cheers 😁
For how enclosed their community is in Ethiopia, they speak English very well
Knowing how impressive Ethiopian culture has been for thousands of years, I wasn't surprised. These are not some backwards people in a poverty-stricken region. This is an old high culture in the subtropical climate of a highland in the tropics. Christian for a few decades longer than the Roman Empire, Ethiopians are self-confident enough to still be using a different calendar, with a different date for New Year and based on a different theory of when Jesus was born resulting in an offset of 7 to 8 years.
Here is what I found when I looked up the status of English in Ethiopia:
Under Emperor Haile Selassie, the language of instruction in schools was Amharic. This is now being changed to the numerous local languages because that improves learning outcomes. I guess that this means Amharic is typically becoming the first foreign language, except for native Amharic speakers. But the language of instruction in universities is English, and apparently parents are putting pressure on schools to teach in English as well!
Great discoveries! Thank you for sharing! 👍😃
The Awesome Drew! Keep it up buddy!!
I hope you would be hitting streets soon!!!

Are you Telugu speaking?

And other half?
Idk

Who cares 🤪🤪😂😂
Crazy Sen did your parents care about you when you were born
5:42 he said being a jew means one who believes in one god. Then the guy said something completely different in English
Yes true!
The 11 year old girl is soooo amazing. I knew that someday she will be a great and succsfull doctor. She's so entertaining, she have a bright smile, she have lots of possitivity in her self. No doubt, she will be become a wonderful doctor soon.
good job Drew
5:35 "Dear Jerusalem; if i I fail to think of you, let my right arm fail me"
I hold a special place in my heart for Jews and the Jewish tradition because it’s where my faith originated. I love Israel, and we have a very inspiring piece of history together (Philippines).
I'm currently in the process of converting to Judaism and I feel such a sense of wonder watching this video. Thank you for sharing stories like this.
May Joseph's memory be a blessing זיכרונו לברכה
