I’m a true a Brooklynite, born and raised. I was actually born in Brooklyn Jewish Hospital. However, as a Black woman I’ve lived along side the Hasidic community my entire life and know all most nothing about their culture or religion. Not because I choose to be ignorant more so, because they tend to keep to themselves. THANK YOU, for these videos they’ve been so informational. I have a new view of the community and so interested in learning more. Special thank you to Shiolme for taking you and your camera on this intimate walk through the community. I can’t wait to see part 3.
Masons keep to themselves too. Be wary. The Jewish do some things very well and some things very poorly, like all other humans. It is good to know your surroundings and the hidden information
@R3ALITY CH3CK Possibly, you're not entirely sure of that as by only surpassing the 33rd degree are you invited into more secretive and esoteric practices. I would not disagree that it is a gateway into evil practices but power is the measure of a man .
What a great video. I enjoyed this so much! And I agree with the comment above, the gentleman and his son are wonderful. I would love to see more videos with them. I have learned a lot!
As a Muslim I'm very proud to see how you portray the hasidic Jew brothers. Their way of life is astoundingly pious and very fascinating. Although we are from different faiths and customs our view of the world is very similar. I sincerely hope we can put our differences behind us and treat each other like brothers and sisters under God.
As a Muslim, I already know about the similarities between us and you but I'm still always so impressed about how similar we are. Lets pray for a peaceful solution for the political turmoil we are in.

@@georgetoma9167 Predominately he would be speaking Yiddish, therefore English will be his second language. His school will be a Yeshiva school, attended by the same Hasidic community/Satmar sect community, where again Yiddish will be spoken. That is also why his accent is not that of a standard English speaking American; it’s similar to the way the Amish speak Pennsylvania Dutch as a first language & often have a very different accent to Americans🙂
Indeed, that's a very jewish thing because you can learn a lot from the pure mind of children. Also, when they turn 13 they are considered adults spiritually and equal spiritually, hence the bar mitzvah
As someone from a nordic country who had a completely non-religious upgringing, this world is very alien to me yet also deeply fascinating. Mankind's diversity is astounding. Peace to all.
Yes u are absolutely right. But anyway we need to respect people beliefs cultures race and religions even though we find some things might be strange or weird for us. There must be a reason behind it all.
@@noorimeldaelle3403 the (by far) fasted growing religious group, in the US and also the rest of the planet, for the most part doesn't believe there is any reason at all. Yes, that group is the "non-religious". The Aztecs once used to sacrifice a not insignificant number of people to make the sun go up and the rain fall, at around the beginning of the Renaissance. When their culture and religion disappeared, the sun still went up and the rain still kept falling - I guess there must be a reason
Similar, I'm from Uruguay, the most secular country of the Americas (still not as much as nordic countries, but still), religiosity isn't common here AT ALL, even though religious people do exist. This is very alien but also fascinating.

@@sonjarutkowsky4140 it's actually the opposite these people get along because they all follow an extremely conservative religion that makes women second class citizens
@@mizzike2555 I have found that most religions put women 2nd. I grew up conservative Protestant and my mother, grandmothers, most women in my family. were/are subservient to their husbands. My paternal grandmother was physically abused by my grandfather and he didn't feel like he was sinning and my grandmother didn't want to divorce b/c divorce is a sin in the Bible. I believe in God, but not a fan of organized religion. I attended two religious colleges. I went to Eastern Nazarene College (Protestant) and then Notre Dame (Catholic). I had to take religious themed classes in both and learned what the textbooks said at that time.
@@mizzike2555 Projecting much. Actually, modern life has trashed women beyond recognition. All women want these days is to be "treated as men", that's not a wholesome psyche to which one should aspire. Women have been robbed of their innate natural instinct to create and nurture, deeming it unworthy and demeaning.Instead, women are paraded around naked as eye candy, devoid of long-lasting/meaningful relationships. The irony is that women don't even realize how they've been robbed of their wholesome selves to serve the primal needs of men.
I love how that little boy is so confident in who he is. That is such good parenting, that you would raise your kids to be different with confidence. Beautiful
@@solkolman HI thanks for the video. If I may ask. Where did you get that material for the Sukkah? It. Looks amazing. I would like to get something like that as well.
The little boy is confident and that is good. Every confident and content kid is usually great. But what about his little sister? Shying away behind the couch? Maybe I would have done the same at her age, however: what about other girls? Where are the women speaking? Up to now there are just again the men talking - like in almost all religions, christians included. But the men are not just talking - they are ruling and have the last word to say. My snappy mind thinks: No wonder they are enjoying themselves! Of course there could be other reasons like women and girls don't like to open up to the male journalist? I am glad and thankful to get some open minded insights to the orthodox Jewish community and I am willing to get others, I truely am. I liked the first episode very much, I could sense the famous Jewish humour in the beginning of ep. 2! However after to episodes I am asking to hear a girl and a woman talking! Other than this I also believe in acceptance and living different ways of life in peace.
@@solkolman Hitler said, “America has stolen the jews. The Jews of God. His jewelry. The NEGROS. They are the TRUE HEBREWS . What a foolish move and a direct challenge to God. And they plan on moving these false PALESKIN jeWISH into a state of Israel. Creation of Israel, 1948. On May 14, 1948, David Ben-Gurion, the head of the (JeWISH) Agency, proclaimed the establishment of the State of Israel. George Friedmann in his book, The End of the Jewish People, pointedly states that the Europeans claiming to be Jews, are nothing more then Hebrew speaking Gentiles."The late president of Egypt, Gamal Abdel Nasser, stated "you (the Je -WISH ) will never be able to live here in peace, because you left here BLACK but came back white.

@@ntmn8444 You are absolutely correct I am a little sad person to some extent watching childhood being crushed by principles that shouldn't be embraced unless you experience life spontaneously first, assuming I agree with this life style, it should be a choice, spoon feeding it to children is a crime...
this child will come to The True Knowledge of Yahshua Ha Messiah, Jesus Christ. he obviously love God and Truth, soon he'll start reading all kinds of lierature until he read the words of the prophets of his Creator. then he will know who The Messiah Is.
Love it. The kid has such a good spirit and appreciates life to the fullest. There should be courses on how to parent children, so they grow up like this kid!
He is hardwired and brainwashed into his silly beliefs.. As far as I am concerned, it is a mild form of child abuse. I feel sorry for him. His little brother looks like something from an alien movie. Those ringlet sideburns look absolutely ridiculous!
@Captain Ron Epstein wasn't religious, he is the opposite of these people. Jews who do not keep the sabbath are considered as non-Jews according to Jewish law. In fact the non-religious Jews are some of the biggest opponents to the religious communities. There is no link between Epstein and anything Jewish.
@@seektruth581 actually the Lubavitcher Hasidim are very hospitable and reach out to non religious Jews. In fact in big cities such as NY there are big Mobiles that look like trailers where the Lubavitcher community will ask people who are walking the streets if their Jewish. They will then invite you in the mobile and put Tefillin on you and say a prayer. They also invite non religious Jews to spend a weekend with a Lubavitcher family for Shabbat weekend.
@@analogkid4957 Yes I totally agree with you, I just didn’t want this person to associate Epstein with the religious Jewish community. Of course the Rebbe accepted all Jews, religious or not and even sparked the in gathering of Jews across the world. Also he is responsible for the Noahide movement gaining traction and helping the non-Jews come to a pure faith.

The only negative I can find, is that because they don’t have internet, these people won’t see the enormous flood of positive comments they are receiving from everyone after viewing this series. Excellent series and beautiful people ❤️
@@ceilconstante7813 I think so too; they were actually laughing at the comment. In my experience of working in the Jewish community, i found Jews love joking, having each other on and laughing at themselves - they have the greatest sense of humour. I have a book called Greatest Jewish Jokes - in almost all of them, they are laughing at themselves.
Only on those few city blocks is his world going to work for him. He had better be taught about people who are NOT like him...and expect them to be everywhere...if he leaves that Hasidic community.
@@beeb7380 Fine, if they don't ever leave the community but he may have to or want to for some reason and will not be prepared to meet society outside of his religious group.
I don't agree with high control religions but dang this kid, " when you're speaking to the president would you be on your phone" smart comment for sure

So happy there if another episode of this. Interesting to learn about people that are often misunderstood or misrepresented in big media outlets. They always seem to have an agenda coming in. This video is straight up honest and just dope!
Can we get an episode of just that kid? Only a child of that intelligence can explain the world in such a simple and beautiful way that most of us have lost sight of. Great series so far!
Everything he said he learned from the adults around him, who in turn only surround themselves with a certain group of other people who already agree with them. Not the best way to learn what’s true.
the kid's dad was basically saying ''you have to listen to your teachers because they know best'' and that kid was like ''listen to God and seek God will all your heart'' I know this will lead to this child finding The True Living God
Such a beautiful and educational series! I am born and raised in Brooklyn and the Hasidic Jewish community was always so intriguing to me. I never wanted to make my own assumptions and knew there was so much I didn’t know. I admire the strong bond of community and I now understand why. One day hopefully there will be the peace and love in this world that we all need! 🤍🤍🤍
I found myself engulfed in watching your interaction with the Hasidic community. Very well done and very respectful. Very interesting Peter. Well done indeed. And Shloime should be commended for being so open to allow us into this world. Thank you Shloime.
OMG these people r my answer to human kind right now. Our world is so messed up but these jewish people r so happy. A fresh insight to living to life. Waiting for episode 3
They might be nice on the outside, but their whole religion is based on superstitious nonsense. They worship a god that does both good and evil, and hope to stay close to this omnipotent needy being who begs to be constantly worshiped and thanked. They might be nice, but it has nothing to do with being a good person, they just live a robotic life where they have no subjective ideas or thoughts
I'll just add, obviously it's not all fruity-pie, but the whole purpose of these videos is to show what it IS like on the inside, because typically on the outside these communities seem so cold and removed, it just takes a look inisde -- like what this video shows -- to show how positive it can really be
In this video, I journey deeper into the Hasidic Jewish world and thought. What much of the West is sometimes missing the Hasidic Jews have mastered: community, connectivity, and the ability to go deeper into the spiritual world while avoiding many modern distractions. I ask you to go into this video with an open mind. I like many of you have no interest in getting this focused on religion but there are a lot of nuggets of wisdom to pick up from those that do here in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. I absolutely loved this afternoon and I hope you see the love in it too :) The ways that the different cultures interact is something special and what I love so much about NYC. That was fun and enriching. Oh, and Chaim (the young boy) has more wisdom than Gandolf! Episode 2 of a 3-part series.

@@TheJeeJoo it might have been deleted by UA-cam. Mine was. And even this comment from Peter above was too, he had to write it again. Something weird is happening with censoring the comments I guess 🤷♀️
Thank you so much for doing this series. With the current rise of anti semitism, hopefully this will show the world what hasidic people truly stand for and we will be respected for it instead of being persecuted. May God bless you.
Peter, I am absolutely mesmerized by this series that you are publishing. It is absolutely fascinating and I like to see how this orthodox way of life lives within the craziness of NYC. I also appreciate how Schloime and others are being so open and welcoming about the world of Hassidism. It just makes me want to know and learn more about them! Thank you so much for making these amazing videos!
@@PeterSantenello Hi, I'm Joe and I'm also an Orthodox Jew. However, I'm not a Hassidic Jew. I'm what's called modern Orthodox. On one hand my community strictly observes Jewish law. On the other hand everyone seeks a advanced secular college degree and 90% of us have a bachelor's degree. On one hand, we will work in the best legal firms and hospitals but on the other hand we will duck out to pray three times a day without exception. On one hand we will associate with non-jews on a daily basis yet we will never eat the food because it isn't kosher. On one hand we tend to dress in more modern clothing then the Hassidim yet we also keep the Sabbath extremely carefully and never use electricity or drive on the Sabbath. That being said there are many similarities to the Hassidim in the Modern Orthodox community as well. Children respect their parents period, I'd never dream to sit in my mother of father's chair. Even when I'm in my 60's and they are in their 80's I'd never dream of it. The poor are taken care of. Orthodox Jews of all kinds do not believe in private charity. We believe in god mandated justice, God gave you sustenance and can take it away at a moment's notice. The only reason we may have a lot of money is to do God's will on earth. Therefore, giving to others is not a matter of generosity for Orthodox Jews. It is another way of acknowledging that god controls the world. The sick in the hospitals always have visitors. It is hard to uphold such a lifestyle while being involved in general society. However, we work on it every day. While the Hassidim do tend to be more insular, much of what you find there can be found in any Orthodox Jewish community. I pray with the same liturgy as them and would feel comfortable in their synagogues. We also have at least 3 kids but oftentimes 5 or 6. In addition to Hassidic Jews and Modern Orthodox Jews, there are also non-hassidic yet still insular Jews.
Chaim is so wise! I love the way he speaks about experiencing the world. Not many children have that outlook on everything we’ve been gifted by our creator (or whatever you believe in). I understand that he most likely only has this understanding of life because its based on religion, but i believe every child should be taught to be deeply grateful for the sun, the rain, the wind, the mud and soil we use to grow our food that keeps us alive. We wouldn’t exist if we were without the power of nature. You dont have to be religious to enjoy and experience with all of your senses 🙏🏽 With the mind Chaim has, i believe he’ll go very far in this world - spiritually also ❤️
Hmm, let´s be honest, he said several contradictions, basic fallacies, throughout this episode. But he´s just a young kid and he seems sweet, he´s studying.
Yes. EXACTLY! U are absolutely right. I am from Singapore i am 40 years old and i am a muslim. To be very honest i really enjoy watching all the videos about the Jews. Their cultures their religion their rules
being a muslim and watching this video truly opened my eyes how Hasidic Jews and Muslims have so much in common. from food to believes and even what the kid said in the end everything is similar. People really should not judge a book by its cover. Thanks for this eye opening video. and thanks to brother shalom for showing us the real Jews.
@@louism8911 brother in Christ I love you and I love your comment! Yesss Jesus fulfilled it all! May God shine His face upon you and your family, in Jesus name.
@@LinneaSanchez Yeah that’s your opinion. Others have differing opinions. The reality is we have no clue if there even is a correct religion as it’s entirely down to God. Following religion should be a choice you make based on where you feel comfortable and where you feel you behave morally best.
Ex-Muslim and the part I appreciate most about Judaism is how they don’t force anyone to convert. This forced conversion and constant threats of damnation is what pushed me away from Islam and Christianity. And all the extremism from both. Entirely disillusioned with them now.
17:15 to 17:24 was an artistic part. It felt as though we were looking at the world through the eyes of that young boy. I love when you interview the children.
Just watched part 1 and finished part 2. Learned so much about the Hasidic Jews that I never knew before. That kid has such an honest soul .... he was brought up the right way .... his parents did an awesome job!
These people make me so happy watching snippets of their lives and hearing their thoughts . My first thought watching this is that this is the people of the God of Abraham ,Jacob and Isaac.
I have Peace because I know who I Believe in👉JESUS who forgives and His Grace is sufficient for me. ✝️🕊️ The Lord Jesus has been so Faithful to me all my life. His Mercy is absolutely the greatest-knowing I will see Him someday. I thank Him for all He’s done for me-peace fills my heart & soul-everyday. The Lord Jesus isn’t a religion-He is a personal relationship. 📖 JOHN 3:26 📖 ROMANS 3:23 & 6:23
Assalamualaikum Muslim from uk . Love to learn about Jewish people. Amazing things learnt . After all they are the people of the book and so we are . I love their faith and ways . Simply Amazing
@@AA-sj6qn no I don't know this particular person's heart. I'm sorry if it came out that way. I'm just saying it would be easier if the monotheistic religions stop looking at other religions as inferior. I live in a country where the muslim minority are often targeted and I speak out against it. I speak out against Islamophobia. But I wish they could meet us halfway and stop looking at other non book religions as worthy of contempt. If everyone just looked at the spiritual elements in their religions and lived by that we would have a more peaceful world instead of divisiveness. No offence to you, or anyone else.
Peter, I cant thank you enough for the treasure of these videos. I love and often respect the Jewish people and pray for the Peace of Jerusalem often. Thank you for allowing us this view as it has been a true blessing.
Thank you so much for giving the Orthodox Jews the chance to show who we really are. It’s a shame that all the media on us has made many perceive us in a negative way.
When I was younger I was interested in Sufi tradition and today I realized how similar the Sufi and Hasidic traditions might be. I'm originally Iranian(currently in Canada) and I love you sincere Hasidic people and your simple way of life. And that kid is so pure and smart.

I just moved to a rental home in Monroe NY.

I always go in with a question and they always answer .This video has been very helpful!!!
That boy is a child that grows up without tv, smartphones, internet. He plays with friends and thanks God for his breath. May my kids grow up like that.
With television social media and everything else in between, it's hard to appreciate the smaller things in life to be appreciative of things that we take for granted each day. Like he said the Sun without the sun we will have nothing. Are fruits and vegetables won't be able to grow and therefore no food without food no life. That kid is very remarkable most definitely
Or, plot twist- he could be enjoying the spoils of technology and still grow up to be a happy, sociable, and intelligent individual. Also, if there is no God, then all that breath spent praising was wasted.
You wanna live in 1800"s? without food with the hustle to live with the armies patrolling to your door? Why putting kids in nature they aren't born for? Being a Muslim I don't hate jews Ok in 2021 it's ok if jew lives his life and Muslim lives his life Stop judging them. I know we can't be good friends and close friends as jews and Muslims But please be human first It's the core belief to live a happy religious life. Christian Muslims Hindu Buddhist jews every Book tells you 1 thing at least to be a human Not a heathen.
I'd love to know where they get the idea the smart phones are so evil or bad, though. More curious than anything. With no internet, cable tv, or anything like that, seems like a weird angle to take such hatred on amazing tech.
Peter, you have opened up for me the Brooklyn hasidic jews communities. Before I never knew what to think of them, but thanks to your videos I can see they are pretty chilled and cool guys just like many other new yorkers, maybe a bit too religious than what I am used to, but that's the beauty of the diversity of NYC. I like your content more and more, you erase the borders and break prejudices. I didn't run across the other channels who do it in such an awesome way. Great stuff!
This young guy talking - he has so much wisdom & good attitude at such a young age. Very impressed by your videos Peter. You do so much with all the vids to bring more understanding & tolerance.
@Helen Hines In general Judaism has no problem with drug/alcohol use and many followers are positive or even partake. Hassidis can be conservative but in this regard I see no reason why he couldn't have been serious.
You could see the sarcasm in that remark but on the back end you could see he meant that's for the most part they are humans of the earth just like themselves although from another following/religion
That young man is so wise and self-confident. He will be a great leader one day. I praise any religion, culture, or family that can raise a child to be so confident and know his self-worth.
Loved this so much. Beautiful people and lovely community. Warmed my heart. I have a fascination for Judaism. That young boy was so sweet and inspirational. God bless everyone
The more I watch the more I am humbled. This is a very simple yet grounded way of life. Very respectful of life itself. The talk about technology (smartphones and internet etc). Very much truth in what is happening in our world.
I totally fell in love with Chaim, he’s such a smart kid and you can feel his kindness thru the camera💕💕💕 He’s everything wow wow wow💕💕💕kudos to his parents🙏🙏🙏
My grandfather has told me this same quote similar to the boy about the sun. Our little quote is nobody can make you happy but yourself. Doing things for people you love or care about is nice but don't forget about yourself. You can make yourself happy if you want. It's up to you.
So impressed with peters ability to connect and bring out to light these amazing interactions. He's quite gifted, gives other there space and genuinely interested in what the other has to teach him. May we all learn from him
Wow ! What a great video ! The young boy was so informed & intelligent about his beliefs, you don't see many kids in other beliefs that are that well educated about their religion
To hear such wisdom from a young kid is inspiring. Most kids have their phone in their hands and probably would just grunt at you like my 14 year old does.
@@georgedemean2228 Exactly. The kid is a fanatical idiot, and it's not entirely his fault. He's probably not getting the best education. He's a Baruch Goldstein waiting to happen if somebody doesn't intervene.
@@josh-rz3uq as an orthodox Jew, I feel the need to provide some context to the example that kid gave. We believe in emunah, that everything that happens in our lives is a product of G-d's will. Sometimes events or situations in our lives, moment by moment, appear good, some bad. But really it is all for the best. Sometimes G-d shows you why it is good (as in you missed a plane and it crashed) but most of the times not. Side note: Please do not use Baruch Goldstein as an example, ever. That is very insulting. To paint an entire people with the brush of one man who lost his mind and killed a lot of innocent people. I condemn him, so does everyone in the Jewish faith.
That kid is genius, this and the first part have been absolutely eye opening, thank you for bringing the opportunity to show this community to the world
I am so very impressed with the Jewish way of lifestyle. That young boy had such great insights about life. I hope the world gets rid of anti-semitism soon.

His school will be a Yeshiva school, attended by the same Hasidic community/Satmar sect community, where again Yiddish will be spoken.

I love how the younger men are allowed to hang around the older men and talk as equals.
I know right. Great.
Indeed, that's a very jewish thing because you can learn a lot from the pure mind of children. Also, when they turn 13 they are considered adults spiritually and equal spiritually, hence the bar mitzvah
That’s something you even see in secular Israel. The Jewish culture is all about merit and questioning conventions
I think they are taught to connect with God from a young age.
He probably had his barmitzvot therefore, he's seen as an adult in their community. For such a young age, what wisdom. Chaim certainly is refreshing!

That is such a wholesome and wonderful way to look at things. You are 100% correct.
Yes u are absolutely right. But anyway we need to respect people beliefs cultures race and religions even though we find some things might be strange or weird for us. There must be a reason behind it all.
@@noorimeldaelle3403 the (by far) fasted growing religious group, in the US and also the rest of the planet, for the most part doesn't believe there is any reason at all. Yes, that group is the "non-religious".
The Aztecs once used to sacrifice a not insignificant number of people to make the sun go up and the rain fall, at around the beginning of the Renaissance. When their culture and religion disappeared, the sun still went up and the rain still kept falling - I guess there must be a reason
Similar, I'm from Uruguay, the most secular country of the Americas (still not as much as nordic countries, but still), religiosity isn't common here AT ALL, even though religious people do exist. This is very alien but also fascinating.
This is honestly one of the most interesting series of UA-cam videos I've ever seen. I learned a lot. Well done!

My paternal grandmother was physically abused by my grandfather and he didn't feel like he was sinning and my grandmother didn't want to divorce b/c divorce is a sin in the Bible. I believe in God, but not a fan of organized religion. I attended two religious colleges. I went to Eastern Nazarene College (Protestant) and then Notre Dame (Catholic). I had to take religious themed classes in both and learned what the textbooks said at that time.
@@mizzike2555 Projecting much. Actually, modern life has trashed women beyond recognition. All women want these days is to be "treated as men", that's not a wholesome psyche to which one should aspire. Women have been robbed of their innate natural instinct to create and nurture, deeming it unworthy and demeaning.Instead, women are paraded around naked as eye candy, devoid of long-lasting/meaningful relationships. The irony is that women don't even realize how they've been robbed of their wholesome selves to serve the primal needs of men.
@@mizzike2555 It just seems that way to outsiders. I have never been in a Jewish home that wasn't run by the mother. She's always the boss!

The little boy is confident and that is good. Every confident and content kid is usually great.
But what about his little sister? Shying away behind the couch? Maybe I would have done the same at her age, however: what about other girls?
Where are the women speaking?
Up to now there are just again the men talking - like in almost all religions, christians included. But the men are not just talking
- they are ruling and have the last word to say.
My snappy mind thinks: No wonder they are enjoying themselves!
Of course there could be other reasons like women and girls don't like to open up to the male journalist?
I am glad and thankful to get some open minded insights to the orthodox Jewish community and I am willing to get others, I truely am. I liked the first episode very much, I could sense the famous Jewish humour in the beginning of ep. 2! However after to episodes I am asking to hear a girl and a woman talking!
Other than this I also believe in acceptance and living different ways of life in peace.

On May 14, 1948, David Ben-Gurion, the head of the (JeWISH) Agency, proclaimed the establishment of the State of Israel. George Friedmann in his book, The End of the Jewish People, pointedly states that the Europeans claiming to be Jews, are nothing more then Hebrew speaking Gentiles."The late president of Egypt, Gamal Abdel Nasser, stated "you (the Je -WISH ) will never be able to live here in peace, because you left here BLACK but came back white.

this child will come to The True Knowledge of Yahshua Ha Messiah, Jesus Christ. he obviously love God and Truth, soon he'll start reading all kinds of lierature until he read the words of the prophets of his Creator. then he will know who The Messiah Is.

@Captain Ron Epstein wasn't religious, he is the opposite of these people. Jews who do not keep the sabbath are considered as non-Jews according to Jewish law. In fact the non-religious Jews are some of the biggest opponents to the religious communities. There is no link between Epstein and anything Jewish.
@@seektruth581 actually the Lubavitcher Hasidim are very hospitable and reach out to non religious Jews. In fact in big cities such as NY there are big Mobiles that look like trailers where the Lubavitcher community will ask people who are walking the streets if their Jewish. They will then invite you in the mobile and put Tefillin on you and say a prayer. They also invite non religious Jews to spend a weekend with a Lubavitcher family for Shabbat weekend.
@@analogkid4957 Yes I totally agree with you, I just didn’t want this person to associate Epstein with the religious Jewish community. Of course the Rebbe accepted all Jews, religious or not and even sparked the in gathering of Jews across the world. Also he is responsible for the Noahide movement gaining traction and helping the non-Jews come to a pure faith.

Such a beautiful and educational series! I am born and raised in Brooklyn and the Hasidic Jewish community was always so intriguing to me.

@Cc 712 Cant agree more
They might be nice on the outside, but their whole religion is based on superstitious nonsense. They worship a god that does both good and evil, and hope to stay close to this omnipotent needy being who begs to be constantly worshiped and thanked. They might be nice, but it has nothing to do with being a good person, they just live a robotic life where they have no subjective ideas or thoughts
@@GigiAbbi-cu9qn I think you're confusing Judaism with Christianity...
@Cc 712 I'm from the inside...it is pretty much what you see
I'll just add, obviously it's not all fruity-pie, but the whole purpose of these videos is to show what it IS like on the inside, because typically on the outside these communities seem so cold and removed, it just takes a look inisde -- like what this video shows -- to show how positive it can really be
What a wonderful community spirit they have. If the rest of the world followed their example it would be an amazing place to live in.
This is one of the most fascinating video series I have ever seen on UA-cam.
that little boy made me cry omg, so wise and inspiring.
In this video, I journey deeper into the Hasidic Jewish world and thought. What much of the West is sometimes missing the Hasidic Jews have mastered: community, connectivity, and the ability to go deeper into the spiritual world while avoiding many modern distractions.
I ask you to go into this video with an open mind. I like many of you have no interest in getting this focused on religion but there are a lot of nuggets of wisdom to pick up from those that do here in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. I absolutely loved this afternoon and I hope you see the love in it too :) The ways that the different cultures interact is something special and what I love so much about NYC. That was fun and enriching. Oh, and Chaim (the young boy) has more wisdom than Gandolf!

Thank you so much for doing this series. With the current rise of anti semitism, hopefully this will show the world what hasidic people truly stand for and we will be respected for it instead of being persecuted. May God bless you.
Well, that wise kid who thanks God for every little things will never experience depression. I love his viewpoint and conviction! Peace from Iran 🇮🇷

Thank you so much for making these amazing videos!
Thanks Dirk!
@@PeterSantenello Hi, I'm Joe and I'm also an Orthodox Jew. However, I'm not a Hassidic Jew. I'm what's called modern Orthodox. On one hand my community strictly observes Jewish law. On the other hand everyone seeks a advanced secular college degree and 90% of us have a bachelor's degree. On one hand, we will work in the best legal firms and hospitals but on the other hand we will duck out to pray three times a day without exception. On one hand we will associate with non-jews on a daily basis yet we will never eat the food because it isn't kosher. On one hand we tend to dress in more modern clothing then the Hassidim yet we also keep the Sabbath extremely carefully and never use electricity or drive on the Sabbath. That being said there are many similarities to the Hassidim in the Modern Orthodox community as well. Children respect their parents period, I'd never dream to sit in my mother of father's chair. Even when I'm in my 60's and they are in their 80's I'd never dream of it. The poor are taken care of. Orthodox Jews of all kinds do not believe in private charity. We believe in god mandated justice, God gave you sustenance and can take it away at a moment's notice. The only reason we may have a lot of money is to do God's will on earth. Therefore, giving to others is not a matter of generosity for Orthodox Jews. It is another way of acknowledging that god controls the world. The sick in the hospitals always have visitors. It is hard to uphold such a lifestyle while being involved in general society. However, we work on it every day. While the Hassidim do tend to be more insular, much of what you find there can be found in any Orthodox Jewish community. I pray with the same liturgy as them and would feel comfortable in their synagogues. We also have at least 3 kids but oftentimes 5 or 6. In addition to Hassidic Jews and Modern Orthodox Jews, there are also non-hassidic yet still insular Jews.
Chaim is so wise! I love the way he speaks about experiencing the world. Not many children have that outlook on everything we’ve been gifted by our creator (or whatever you believe in). I understand that he most likely only has this understanding of life because its based on religion, but i believe every child should be taught to be deeply grateful for the sun, the rain, the wind, the mud and soil we use to grow our food that keeps us alive. We wouldn’t exist if we were without the power of nature. You dont have to be religious to enjoy and experience with all of your senses 🙏🏽 With the mind Chaim has, i believe he’ll go very far in this world - spiritually also ❤️
Hmm, let´s be honest, he said several contradictions, basic fallacies, throughout this episode. But he´s just a young kid and he seems sweet, he´s studying.
Nothing better than a brain washed little kid
I agree. That little dweeb is pretty wise.
Yes. EXACTLY! U are absolutely right. I am from Singapore i am 40 years old and i am a muslim. To be very honest i really enjoy watching all the videos about the Jews. Their cultures their religion their rules
“The power of nature” IS God. The Bible says that all of creation testifies to The Creator.
being a muslim and watching this video truly opened my eyes how Hasidic Jews and Muslims have so much in common. from food to believes and even what the kid said in the end everything is similar. People really should not judge a book by its cover. Thanks for this eye opening video. and thanks to brother shalom for showing us the real Jews.
@@louism8911 brother in Christ I love you and I love your comment! Yesss Jesus fulfilled it all! May God shine His face upon you and your family, in Jesus name.
@@LinneaSanchez Yeah that’s your opinion. Others have differing opinions. The reality is we have no clue if there even is a correct religion as it’s entirely down to God. Following religion should be a choice you make based on where you feel comfortable and where you feel you behave morally best.
Ex-Muslim and the part I appreciate most about Judaism is how they don’t force anyone to convert. This forced conversion and constant threats of damnation is what pushed me away from Islam and Christianity. And all the extremism from both. Entirely disillusioned with them now.

I live in a country where the muslim minority are often targeted and I speak out against it. I speak out against Islamophobia. But I wish they could meet us halfway and stop looking at other non book religions as worthy of contempt. If everyone just looked at the spiritual elements in their religions and lived by that we would have a more peaceful world instead of divisiveness.

My landlord is a Hasidic Man and I have become so interested in the way of life for this community .I have always been the kind of person that if your a kind person you will get that in return.People told me not to rent "from them" but didn't listen.This man has been nothing but nice to me and my family.And the ladies that run the office are the sweetest!! I always go in with a question and they always answer .This video has been very helpful!!!
Chaim is the best part of this documentary. So awesome seeing a boy who is unaffected by Hollywood and media. He is wiser than most adults I know
That boy is a child that grows up without tv, smartphones, internet. He plays with friends and thanks God for his breath. May my kids grow up like that.
With television social media and everything else in between, it's hard to appreciate the smaller things in life to be appreciative of things that we take for granted each day. Like he said the Sun without the sun we will have nothing. Are fruits and vegetables won't be able to grow and therefore no food without food no life. That kid is very remarkable most definitely
Or, plot twist- he could be enjoying the spoils of technology and still grow up to be a happy, sociable, and intelligent individual. Also, if there is no God, then all that breath spent praising was wasted.
I am from a Brazil and I wish I never discovered Internet
Amen 🙏🏼
You wanna live in 1800"s? without food with the hustle to live with the armies patrolling to your door? Why putting kids in nature they aren't born for? Being a Muslim I don't hate jews Ok in 2021 it's ok if jew lives his life and Muslim lives his life Stop judging them. I know we can't be good friends and close friends as jews and Muslims But please be human first It's the core belief to live a happy religious life. Christian Muslims Hindu Buddhist jews every Book tells you 1 thing at least to be a human Not a heathen.
The boy has a maturity, wisdom, and profundity about him that I've never seen before in such a young child.
that 911 plane was unexpected and unnecessary.
@@uhnrealv1403 dancing Israelis my friend...
And in so many adults
I'd love to know where they get the idea the smart phones are so evil or bad, though. More curious than anything. With no internet, cable tv, or anything like that, seems like a weird angle to take such hatred on amazing tech.
Children of G-d
That boy is amazing and is very intelligent. His parents did a beautiful job raising him with the love of God and is very respectful.
Thank GD and thank you for the compliment !
The kid is the star of this video
Agree and he got a beautiful positive view of life, be grateful and nothing is bad, things just happens and you go on.
Fact!
@@PeterSantenello how old is he?
@@PeterSantenello do you know what group they belong to?
@@user-bw3fl7fj9w they belongs to the Satmar sect
Peter, you have opened up for me the Brooklyn hasidic jews communities. Before I never knew what to think of them, but thanks to your videos I can see they are pretty chilled and cool guys just like many other new yorkers, maybe a bit too religious than what I am used to, but that's the beauty of the diversity of NYC.
I like your content more and more, you erase the borders and break prejudices. I didn't run across the other channels who do it in such an awesome way. Great stuff!
The kid seems like a very wise little boy! Muslim here. I think we should get along with the Jews.
there are groups,ceck out abraham's tent.
@0 that’s a seriously false narrative
@0 That's fake. Their Mufti worked with Hitler.
Mashallah
Quran Says: O you who believe! Do not take the Jews and the Christians as allies.
This young guy talking - he has so much wisdom & good attitude at such a young age. Very impressed by your videos Peter. You do so much with all the vids to bring more understanding & tolerance.
17:16 the boy looks up at the sky, unbothered by anything around him, and he’s thankful. So much we can learn from this.
Love the boy expressing his passion about God. Warms my heart
"...They just do drugs and alcohol but they won't bother you..." best slogan on drug user acceptance I've heard so far
That almost sure was a joke.
I know they don't like it, they probably hate it. But they learned to mind their own business.
@Helen Hines In general Judaism has no problem with drug/alcohol use and many followers are positive or even partake. Hassidis can be conservative but in this regard I see no reason why he couldn't have been serious.
You could see the sarcasm in that remark but on the back end you could see he meant that's for the most part they are humans of the earth just like themselves although from another following/religion
@@rainbowthegod To the point!
That young man is so wise and self-confident. He will be a great leader one day. I praise any religion, culture, or family that can raise a child to be so confident and know his self-worth.
Loved this so much. Beautiful people and lovely community. Warmed my heart. I have a fascination for Judaism. That young boy was so sweet and inspirational. God bless everyone
The more I watch the more I am humbled. This is a very simple yet grounded way of life. Very respectful of life itself. The talk about technology (smartphones and internet etc). Very much truth in what is happening in our world.
That beautiful boy. What a wonderful kind mind.
I totally fell in love with Chaim, he’s such a smart kid and you can feel his kindness thru the camera💕💕💕 He’s everything wow wow wow💕💕💕kudos to his parents🙏🙏🙏
My grandfather has told me this same quote similar to the boy about the sun. Our little quote is nobody can make you happy but yourself. Doing things for people you love or care about is nice but don't forget about yourself. You can make yourself happy if you want. It's up to you.
So impressed with peters ability to connect and bring out to light these amazing interactions.
He's quite gifted, gives other there space and genuinely interested in what the other has to teach him.
May we all learn from him
Wow ! What a great video !
The young boy was so informed & intelligent about his beliefs, you don't see many kids in other beliefs that are that well educated about their religion
Shelley J.
Don't mean to boast but Chain is likely in a school class of 25 kids his age who mostly think and act pretty much the same!
To hear such wisdom from a young kid is inspiring. Most kids have their phone in their hands and probably would just grunt at you like my 14 year old does.
Your children are a direct reflection of you
@@Camibug Or like both folks said in the video, they rebel. It could be a home problem. Or it could be normal.
This kid is extremely wise for his age.
If we were all so wise and grateful, can you imagine the world?
No, he's just another fanatic.
Kid wisdom : be thankful you miss the plane...it was hijacked and flown in to the towers "the extend of his wisdom...wtf
@@georgedemean2228 Exactly. The kid is a fanatical idiot, and it's not entirely his fault. He's probably not getting the best education. He's a Baruch Goldstein waiting to happen if somebody doesn't intervene.
@@josh-rz3uq as an orthodox Jew, I feel the need to provide some context to the example that kid gave. We believe in emunah, that everything that happens in our lives is a product of G-d's will. Sometimes events or situations in our lives, moment by moment, appear good, some bad. But really it is all for the best. Sometimes G-d shows you why it is good (as in you missed a plane and it crashed) but most of the times not. Side note: Please do not use Baruch Goldstein as an example, ever. That is very insulting. To paint an entire people with the brush of one man who lost his mind and killed a lot of innocent people. I condemn him, so does everyone in the Jewish faith.
This young boy is a beautiful soul. Shows you how much this community should be protected.
the mentality of the kid and him appreciating the sun shining 🥺🥺🥺🥺 as a muslim saudi i learned a lot and i thanks for sharing these seriesb! all love
That kid is genius, this and the first part have been absolutely eye opening, thank you for bringing the opportunity to show this community to the world
Chaim and his father are pleasant people to listen to and watch. Both very smart and for the boy, wise even.
Thank you so much!
@@solkolman ma shlomcha? tevorach, shabbat shalom!
@@someone-qz4wj שנה טובה!
I am so very impressed with the Jewish way of lifestyle. That young boy had such great insights about life. I hope the world gets rid of anti-semitism soon.
I’ve learnt more about life from that kid than anyone else in 29 years hahah! Good stuff!
I've never been so informed about something I've been so intrigued by. Great video. And that kid has an outlook on life that everyone should have. He's so ahead of his time.
