@Blaster Master I do believe in Rabbi Tovia that NT is a corrupted book. too many contradictions and the shady part is there's no proof of Jesus outside NT.
@Blaster Master I am a true Christian. True Christians teach Judaism just as the early Christian congregation did. Jesus was an Essene Jew as were his apostles and his earliest followers. They ALL taught Judaism. In fact, Jesus stated at John 4:22 " You worship what you do not know; we worship what we know, because SALVATION BEGINS WITH THE JEWS." Those who claim to be Christian but do not teach Judaism are false imitation Christians. As an Essene Jew, Jesus Christ viewed the Written Torah as his God and Father's inspired and sacred word and so do true Christians today. In fact, everything Jesus taught, he taught from the Greek Septuaguint LXX because the Christian Greek scriptures had not yet been written while he was still on earth.
@@silentlurker1324 The Christian Greek scriptures are not a "corrupted book", but rather they are a different law covenant. As for being contradictory, no they are not. The contradictions come from the teachings and traditions of the churches of Christendom, but not from the Christian Greek scriptures themselves. In fact, they also do not contradict the Written Torah although the churches of Christendom do everything in their power to try to make them contradict. And yes....there is lots of proof of Jesus outside the NT, but not if you look at it from the viewpoint of the churches of Christendom with its false teachings. Many Jews are in agreement that "the angel of Jehovah" that is spoken of throughout the Hebrew scriptures is the Messiah and he is the one who protected the ancient nation of Israel from pharoah and the Egyptian army. He is the "Prince of Jehovah's army" as described at Joshua 5:13-15 as well as the one referred to at Daniel 10:13 as "One of the foremost princes" and also the "Great Prince" mentioned at Daniel 12:1. The word "Prince" also means "ruler" and there are only 2 rulers in heaven that are mentioned in scripture....God and his Son. That is why Dan.10:13 calls him ONE OF THE foremost princes. If you read the account at Joshua 5:13-15, you will notice that the man Joshua spoke to commanded him to take off his sandals because he was standing on holy ground. So who is this prince or commander of Jehovah's armies of billions of angels that was able to command holy ground if not the great princely Son of the Great God and King of the Universe, Jehovah God???
@@silentlurker1324 If you are speaking of proving scripturally from the Hebrew scriptures the authenticity of Jesus outside of what is taught about him in the NT....yes, absolutely I can prove it. However, give ear please to the counsel found at Proverbs: Prov.3:5 "Trust in Jehovah with all your heart, And do not rely on your own understanding." It is one thing to "study" the bible, and it is quite another to learn what it teaches by first approaching Jehovah in prayer and asking for his Spirit and direction to help you to understand what it is you are studying. Psalms also offers strong counsel regarding the manner in which we need to study God's written word: Ps.1:2 "But his delight is in the law of Jehovah, And he reads His law in an undertone day and night." Now does this mean that we should read the bible every minute of every day and every minute of every night?....No!....But what it does mean is that when we DO read it, we need to read it in an undertone. What does it mean to read it in an undertone? It means to "meditate". In other words, when you read something from God's written word, you need to stop and ask yourself questions such as "What does it mean here in Ecclesiastes when God says that when a man dies he knows nothing at all, that he has no works and no wisdom? What is God trying to tell me here?" This helps us to get the proper sense of what it is we are reading. I do not just "study" the bible. Rather, I study and teach it. I am not just a student of the bible, I am a "professor" of its meaning and I "profess" (or teach) it.....ALL of it! When it comes to what the bible teaches one might even say that all of Jehovah's Witnesses have PHD's, BA's, and even Doctorates in what both the Hebrew and the Christian Greek scriptures teach. The most basic part of what Jehovah's Witnesses teach is JUDAISM, and when properly taught, MUCH of JUDAISM is also found in the Christian Greek Scriptures. Sadly, the pagan churches of Christendom have grossly misrepresented the Judaic teachings of the Christian Greek scriptures and completely hidden them behind the veil of the trinity and other pagan traditions. Keep in mind that Jesus was an Essene Jew and his apostles and the very first christian disciples were also Jews and they gathered and met and taught in the Jewish synagogues. Don't think for a moment that they just simply stopped practicing and teaching Judaism because had they done so and attempted to teach what the churches of Christendom teach, there would have been riots and uprisings against them and no such thing is recorded in the historical records of early Israel or among the Jews.

I love your teaching Rabbi Singer. You are blessed with Intelligence by our Creator. Christians, including myself have given Satan way too much credence as a person, a god etc...He's been a scapegoat and the excuse of people acting in the most hideous ways. What it boils down to is this. Ignorance. That is why there are over 30,000 Christian denominations in the world.
***** One of my favorite Islamic saints is St. Rabia of Basra. Have you ever read any of her works? I quote her sometimes and people think she is Christian.
@@cindydieball6350 There are infinite false religions and only one true one, just as there are infinite wrong answers if we ask what two plus two is, and only 4 is the right answer. God is Logic as both the one true God and Logic are terms for “the source of order, knowledge, proper reasoning and all that is logical (existing and/or rational)” and any mind devoted to another will be insane and lost in illusion, and it then becomes a matter of “when” and “how badly” they will sin (make more errors in reasoning) not a matter of “if” they will sin.
I laughed out loud when Rabbi said 'if you drink it, you'd drop dead' 😂 This blessed man has a beautiful way with words. May the creator bless you and keep you.
When you take the Greco/Roman junk out of the Apostolic Writings, then subtract how the Christian Church teaches only those items that support their particular positions, you have Nazarene Judaism...Torah Observant Nazarene Judaism, that has no idols, and worships only haShem.
I'm SO glad to know you're listening to the rabbi, considering your lack of belief in God. I encourage you to consider - when you are ready - by looking at the creation all around you and the vast complexity of our world, that there is a Creator.
@@fazbell you do not seem to know much about these religions, let alone Judaism. Perhaps read a little bit before saying something so profoundly idiotic? Wish you the best.
I too am a nonbeliever who enjoys Tovia. His teachings are so wonderful for putting those who don't know their own religious past back in their lanes. I've directed more than one Xian to this channel do they'll learn how the promise they claim isn't what they think. Unfortunately many Xians will completely ignore what was done to Tenach/OT by them and their predecessors because they love their story too much.
I've learned a lot of truth from him, ordered his "let's get Biblical" then my mind was blown, 30 years Christian, then went interfaith and now a Bahai. I love all people and religions, so much more at peace that I don't have to dislike people that are different from me or believe different.....it's okay. Most people are wrong about what they think of others, the Christians were wrong about the Jews. I love them and I don't believe anyone should be trying to convert them to anything.
@@angelgirldebbiejo Happy that you have peace and not pushing your faith on others, not even in the slightest bit with no ulterior motive. Thank goodness. BTW I got to enjoy the Bahai Gardens in Haifa, Lovely.
He is more like the Philisees and does not believe in Christ being Jesus. You need to read the Bible over and over because his belief is the one practiced before Jesus was born to this world for our Savior. This is what devided the many Jews from the ones that Jesus chose as His followers to spread the word to the world. He has not believeed in the Son of God in my knowledge and is still waiting for the first coming of Christ. Listen carefully because to believe in God's plan, is to follow Jesus. Only about half the OT is accepted and the second half and the NT have never been accepted by many Jews. If you read the Bible and compare with the daily news you can see what was written thousanda of years ago is fact now. There are no lies written in the Bible.
thanks for clearing this up for me. It is hard to be a christian and believe the Hebrew Testament. I consider myself more Jewish than Modern Christianity we see the last 1800 years.
@Abraham Mani Hospitals are where sick people are. Why aren’t these healers going there. I don’t believe you, that people are getting healed all over the world.
As a Non-Jew you can respect amd believe Judaism without converting or practicing 😊 Just follow the Genesis Commandments and worship God not Nature and try your best to improve 🙏 That's it! ✅️
Awesome lecture by Rabbi Singer, as usual. This guy exudes so much passion... it's amazing to watch. Passion for G-d, yes, of course. But, also Culture, and heritage, and history... It's groovy! A lot of people throw the term 'OCD' around without really understanding what it is. As a sufferer, i understand it inside and out. My specific kind is 'Scrupulosity' (The religious oriented kind). For most of my life, I was so utterly tormented, convinced that I was going to wind up in a Pagan 'Hell' because of my 'intrusive thoughts' (which I could not control). Anyway.... ultimately I found myself at this 'Christian Retreat' run by two nutcases. My condition was just exacerbating. The experience was horrible. But, I did stumble upon one tiny bit of information, which really was the catalyst that provoked me to study Theology. I simply found out that The Tanakh says everyone goes to Sheol. Wait a second. G-d's original word says everyone goes to Sheol and NOT 'Heaven or Hell'... This is what 'planted the seed'. Over the years thereafter, I continued to study more and more, and it was just painfully and blatantly obvious that Chriatianity was so unequivocally Pagan. Because of this 'Revelation' (so to speak), my crippling fear of this Pagan Hell popularized by Platonic Hellenic Philosophy started to fade. I'm so grateful, because I suffered so badly. I experienced more panic attacks than I could possibly count. I must confess... I don't have exceptional 'faith', but i love study Jewish Theology and History. It resonates with me. Also my father is Jewish, but he's very 'secular'. I recently contacted the Synagogue where I live, but I never received a reply. I'll call again. Hopefully, they're not strict adherents to the Mandatory 'Maternal Doctrine'. Anyway... Very good lecture as always.
I have a friend that was raised in Judaism, but no longer practices. He told me that they have no concept of the afterlife and I asked him about Sheol and he never heard of it, which I thought was odd. You should probably just go to the Synogague in person, if you haven't already. I used to go to a Hare Krishna temple and they were horrible at returning voice mail and E-mail, but friendly when you showed up in person. Maybe the Synogague is the same way?
@@robstanton4630 it's strange that your allegedly 'Jewish' buddy said that (paraphrase) in Judaism there is no concept of life beyond 'Sheol' (the grave). That's simply not accurate. Indeed, Jews don't 'obsess' about it like Christians and Muslims. As you likely know The Jewish Religion is divided into 2 'paradigms' (so to speak). Olam HaZe (This World) and Olam HaBa (The World to Come). The Tanakh pretty well deals exclusively with Olam HaZe. I think this is the reason why there's so much 'confusion'. The prophesied 'Mashiach' will usher I The new Epoch (Olam HaBa) and all people (Save for the people that G-d has destroyed) will go through (Gaulah) a Redemptive Event where Soul is reunited with body and everyone resurrects from their grave. This is one of the reasons why Jews are not 'supposed to be cremated. Before this occurs, though, all souls are generally believed to go through a process called 'Gehinnom'. This is often referred to as 'Hell'. It can only last for a Maximum of 12 months, though. If you cannot be 'Spiritually Cleansed' (Tahor) in that period, you are 'destroyed'. After that process you just go to Gan Eden (Heaven) and chill there until Mashiach comes. The reason Jews never talk about that is because, well... none of us care. Unlike Pagans who all want to exist devoid of a 'body'... devoid of 'The Material', in Judaism a 'body' is considered a good thing. Bodies are 'practical'. You can 'do stuff with them. So, the focus is all on Olam HaBa... The World to Come, where Soul is reunited with body.
My personal experience exactly.. As I read on Jesus' life and teachings, He seems to sound different than what I am taught in Catechism and Sunday schools.. Jesus makes a lot of sense when I listen to him as a Jew... This is the reason I am here, to orient myself with Jewish theology.
im a christian and rhese question bothers me too. I mean how do we christians who came 1000 years later re-interpret books the jews had for all that time? That means that moses who supposedly wrote the torah forgot to tell the jews or he himself didnt know who the serpernt was. Then if there is a force that is equal to God then that means God has never been fully incontrol of the situation. God wins Some ,The devil wins some. it is an absurd idea. Secondly from the christian perpective the Noah story raises more question than answers. why would God drown the whole humanity to start afresh when his opponent who happens to be the main sorce of the evil is still there? W ont the adverserly just do the same as he did to the rest? Satan is only referensed 6 times in the old testament. and in most of those times he is in the company of God which got me thinking that for someone who supposedly live in hell he surely does spend a lot of time in heaven and it began to seem very strange
+B Dennis I was always told not to focus on the OT as it has no relevance for today. As you will be aware the NT tells us of a trinity. I felt in order to understand the NT I had to study the OT. I started to find contradictions to G-d's word. I discovered that the Hebrew words had different meaning to what was translated into Greek then into English. In the OT we are told that there is definitely only one G-d. G-d makes it quite clear there is only one G-d. Deuteronomy 4:35,39 Deuteronomy 6:4 Deuteronomy 32:39 2 Samuel 7:22 1 Kings 8:60 2 Kings 5:15 2 Kings 19:15 1 Chronicles 17:20 Nehemiah 9:6 Psalm 18:31 Psalm 86:10 Isaiah 37:16,20 Isaiah 43:10,11 Isaiah 44:6,8 Isaiah 45:5 - 6 Isaiah 45:21 Isaiah 46:9 Hosea 13:4 Joel 2:27 Zechariah 14:9 The NT also tells us that jc had to die so that our sins could be forgiven. The OT tells us different. 1. A sin offering had to be a female goat or sheep. (Lev 4:32) Jesus was a human being. 2. A sin offering could NOT be injured or have any wounds or weeping sores on their body. (Lev 22:22) Jesus has many wounds on his body prior to his death. 3. A sin offering could not have any injuries or defects on the body (Lev 22:25) Jesus was beaten, whipped and pierced prior to his death. 4. A sin offering had to be taken to the priest and sacrificed on the altar in the temple. To offer a sacrifice anywhere else was an unacceptable to God. (Deut 12:13-14) Jesus died on a stake on a hill. 5. The Torah tells us that human sacrifice of any kind is an abomination to God. (Deut 12:31 and 18:10 also Ezek 16:20) Jesus death would have been a human sacrifice. 6. The Torah tells us, no man can die in place of or be a ransom for another. (Palm 49:7-8) 7. The Torah tells us, every man is accountable for his own sin, and that a father cannot take the responsibility for the sins of his children. (Ezek 18:20) Jesus did not die for us. This tells me that there is no need for JC. If I were to continue to believe (as I used to) that JC had to die for my sins, then it would mean that I didn't believe in what G-d said. Isaiah 40:8 tells us, The grass shall dry out, the blossom shall wilt, but the word of our God shall last forever. I cannot deny G-d's word, for I believe it to be true. So I decided to deny JC. My research goes way beyond this. I discovered the 7 laws of Noah too and live by them. I also now read the Jewish Tanakh and not the bible.
+My Torah Life. God the Father would not go against himself. He states on at least 2 occasions that... "this is my Son with whom I am well pleased, listen to him".... 1. Jesus baptism 2. Jesus transfiguration. The God of this age has sadly decieved you, you are in error. Repentance, a cry out to God for his Spirits indwellng, and a refocus on God's word will deliver you. My words are harsh, but sadly after seeing several people like yourself decieved in this way necessary.
+MR. FITTA The gospels and epistles illuminate the Hebrew bible. The Hebrew bible in turn gives a foundation to the Gospels and epistles. R. Singer is in error when he claims ' Christian's agree that the Hebrew bible would still stand without the Gospels/epistles, a simple example of this is found in Hebrews 1:1-3 "In the past God spoke to our father's many times and in various ways, but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed the heir of all things and through whom he made the universe. The Son is the radiance of God's glory and the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word. If you don't know what the Son is saying you cannot hear from God. God the Father didn't stop speaking to his creation at Sinai. It's not only a mistake but an insult to the Father, to disregard his words, and then decide to impose religion on him, we do not call him the Living God for no reason. Listen to him! not only has he spoken by his Son, but Jesus is alive today and is still speaking to us by his Spirit through his word(Hebrew bible+ New testament)
Tovia Singer I mean, when information about satan is obvious in each scripture, but there are still many people with the awareness that plunged into the cunning of satan and his followers (as I saw the videos about Illuminati etc.) .. Many-many pray that we always be protected, and was shown a straight path by Him.

" Who is that man ? Who shook kingdoms, especially with their Atomic bomb ? Is it not the white man ? Just asking because it's not the Jamaicans, Africans, Aborigines or native Americans. Who is this man that shook the nations and spread racism across the planet, created Nazism and the far right, built The Church of Satan , practices Luciferian doctrines and is referred to as Lucifer in the book of Isaiah ?
The word LUCIFER was first introduced by JEROME, a Latin priest/historian. So the original word 'heylel' (comes from the root word HALAL that can mean 2 different things...it can mean bright and shiny one or in the negative sense to boast, to be mad, to rage) was corrupted back in the 400s. The word LUCIFER is a LATIN word that means 'light-bearer', the equivalent in HEBREW is 'AARON'. The word Lucifer is the name attributed to the bright star, VENUS. So the original meaning was removed and hidden! This is what it should read in Isaiah 14: 12, "How you have fallen from the heavens, Oh YOU INCREDIBLY ARROGANT AND MAD BOASTER! You have been cut down to the ground, you who laid low the nations!" This obviously was the king of Babel, as verse 4 states.
What differentiates Satan in Islam and that in Christianity is that Christians see Satan as a "fallen" angel, originator of evil and almost a godly being in opposition to God (like paganism) while the Islamic view is, in terms of terminology and concept, in agreement with the Hebrew Bible but, in terms of particular origins, attesting the Jewish apocryphal and pseudo-graphical scriptures. While angels do not have free will, demons (that is, the ones referred to as 'Shediim' by Hebrews and 'Jinn' by Arabs) can be good and evil like humans (unlike in Christianity) though mostly are evil. In Islamic scripture, evil humans and demons both are called 'satans' (indefinite and mostly plural) while 'Satan' ("the satan") is only an attributive name for a particular demon (so obviously good and evil demons predate him) who worshiped God so much that he was granted the rank (in honor not being) of an archangel but rebelled against God's will and refused to bow to Man (Adam), so was cast out of the Garden and asked God to give him the power to tempt and deceive his enemy, i.e., Man. So he was in opposition to humans (and not God), an "adversary" unto him and hence named. He is ultimately an agent of God but not like the angels. This account is not canon to the Hebrew Bible but present in Jewish apocryphal and pseudo-graphical scriptures.
Do you have children? Lets say you did would you allow someone of bad influebce around your children all the time?....and when they fall into temptation and ruin their lives and the lives of others as a result of bad (constant) influence would you still allow that bad influence around your child?
DEAR RABBI TOVIA PLEASE READ CHAPTER 13 OF MATHEWS GOSPEL VERSES 24 TO 43 . JESUS EXPLAINS WHO IS SATAN AND WHAT IS HIS MISSION. SATAN AND FALLAN ANGELS ARE DEFINITELY ADVERSERIES TO GOD AND THEY HAMPER GODLY PLANS. SATAN IS FALLEN ANGEL CALLED NAKASH WHO DECEIVED EVE AND ADAM IN THE GARDEN OF EDEN. SATAN HAS PROMOTED FALSE RELIGIONS AND EVEN TODAY THE REAL DESCENDANTS OF 10 LOST TRIBS OF ISRAEL VIZ HINDUS ARE IN HIS CLUTCHES THE SPIRITUAL ACTIVITIES OF SATAN IS TO CREATE AND PROMOTE FALSE GOSPELS AND RELIGIONS TO COUNTER JUDAISM AND CHRISTIANITY. THAT IS WHY THERE ARE MANY GODS AND LORDS WORSHIPPED BY MEN. THE POWER OF SATAN OVER MANKIND IS UNBELIVEABLE AND NO BODY TALKS ABOUT HIM NOR HE IS CRITICIZED. ACCORDING TO PAUL SATAN IS GOD OF THIS AGE.AND MANKIND IS BLINDFOLDED BY HIM. HE HAS RULED OVER THE MANKIND BY POWER OF DEATH. BUT HE NOW STANDS DEFEATED BECAUSE OF THE RESSURECTION OF JESUS AND BELIEVERS HAVE POWER TO RESI 18:20 ST HIM. HE IS ALSO THE VILLAN IN THE HISTORY OF ISRAEL NATION AND 😢TODAY ALSO HE IS ALSO VERY ACTIVE AS MANY NATIONS HAVE NOT RECOGNISED JERUSALEM AS CAPITAL OF ISRAEL THE FLASHPOINT OF LAST WAR ON EARTH.
The truth of this is blatant in the book of Job As a recovering Christian, when I read Job on my own terms, I was appalled at what I’d been brought up to think about Satan and by inference what I thought about God.
Appalling, yes 😢 ✅️ But Rabbi Singer's opinion is that giving up Christianity is a holy gift to God, one which an Orthodox Jew can never give to the Creator 💝 🤲
Islam exposes the truth about Satan... Satan isn't a fallen Angel, he is a DJinn, Angel's dont have free-will, mankind and DJinn do... The old and new testament's do not have this information... The last testament guides unto all truth...
@NORMAH BTE RAUF (KB) Angels don't have free will. The 'Jinn' are demons, not genies, you idiot. They are the same as the Jewish 'Shediim,' supernatural beings who can be both good and bad like humans. Abrahamic Judaism and Islam differs from pagan Christianity.
You are incorrect, the Bible talks about Satan and his position before he became a fallen angel in rebellion. He was created like every other Angel in heaven is only his rebellion that has caused them to now hold the title of a demon. The Bible tells us all we need to know about Satan and his origin. Angels in fact do have free will, if they did not have free will they would never have been an incident in heaven where I 3rd of the heavenly angels fell into rebellion against God. This is recorded in the Bible. I would advise that if you are a Muslim that you get your hands on a good translation of the Bible and sit down and read it there is much in the Bible that is not recorded in the Koran. The Bible contains the truth.
For those Christians, who take literaly the Bible, Torah, Tarnach, and Gospels, as the word of God,- solo scriptura - can't follow any religion and Church Rules, men made by Church Leaders and counsils. As you said there is one God, who created the whole universe with everything, also the Angels by his word. And the word of God is the Son of God. And Satan ist one of the Angels. His role is described in Job and Gospels too. Thank you. God bless you all.
The Devil, named Iblees or Shaitaan (Satan) in Islam, is a being from amongst the Jinn, a species separate to the Angels, Humans and Animals. It is a core belief in Islam that Iblees is not an Angel, as Angels are not beings that have free will and therefore it is impossible for them to disobey God. From amongst the Jinn, Iblees (Satan) was the most pious and righteous of all, in fact he had reached such a high level that he was in the company of the Angels in the heavens due to his piety, it was when Allah (God) created Adam, the first human being, that Iblees’ downfall began. As mentioned in the Qur’an, Allah decided to create the first human being, Adam, from clay. Once Adam was fully created, Allah commanded everyone in the heavens to bow down to Adam out of respect, not out of worship in the way that Muslims prostrate to Allah. “And we have certainly created you, [O Mankind], and given you [human] form. Then we said to the angels, “Prostrate to Adam”; so they prostrated, except for Iblees. He was not of those who prostrated.”[Qur’an: Al-A’raaf 7:11] As mentioned in the above verse, the command was given to everyone including Iblees who is mentioned together with the angels. This verse often causes confusion amongst people who don’t have knowledge of the Arabic language, and on the face of the translation it suggests that Satan was an angel instead of a Jinn, fitting into the Judeo-Christian theology. However this type of phrase is common in Arabic i.e. to mention two separate types of people in one group, for example “All of the students left, except the teacher.” It does not mean that the teacher is a student, however it is an easier way to describe the situation. Iblees refused to obey the command of Allah, the following verse tells us the reason why he did not bow down. “[Allah] said, “What prevented you from prostrating when I commanded you?” [Satan] said, “I am better than him. You created me from fire and created him from clay.” [Qur’an: Al-A’raaf 7:12] Iblees was in essence the first racist to ever exist, this stemmed from his immense arrogance and pride over who he was, which ultimately led to his downfall,
So lucifer is a morning star aka planet venus not a being like satan that christian always babbling about, christian do really need to read the bible lol
Rabbi, I've watched/listened to quite a few of your videos. I am Christian (Universalist in Logic/Catholic is expression, the irony that Universal/Catholic are one in the same in meaning). I respect your zeal, I admire and applaud your knowledge of religion(s) and of course The Scripture. That being stated, there are some things which you have stated which are too generalized, although mostly true about those who consider themselves Christian. 1. I do not find the book of Job as heretical. As a matter of fact I use the story in many theological debates between Myself and people of different theological points of view, and without belief altogether who do not understand the point of life's struggle. 2. I do not believe that Yahshua is God, it doesn't add up biblically. Obviously, given our religious affiliation, we differ on His role and connection with God. Though I love hearing your breakdown of counter arguments that heavily dispute Yahshua's Divine connection. 3. I agree that Satan's role is not the anti-God presence, but acts solely as the Divine enforcer of God's Law and Tempter to test the righteous/holy. 4. I do not believe that people should be going over to the Holy Land to make a dispute/convert Jews. I also don't believe that it is right to call Israel a true Israel until The Messiah comes to lead the Jews to unite and in the name of peace that all should fall to that same peace of their own freewill, as God had so instilled. 5. My feelings of Paul, the selfish apostle, differs from the vast majority of Christians as I find he broke himself from the bonds of St. Peter's stewardship/sheparding if we are being orthodox to the Apostalic Gospels lol. It is no doubt the reason why Martin Luther essentially worshipped Paul, for many reasons (anti-semitism, selfish drive, schism, fanatical and violent zeal, etc). Paul comes later and doesn't stand in the presence of Yahshua, he doesn't have a right to question Peter who was renamed given his name by supposed Divine appointment. 6. The icons and adornation of The Church are not to be worshipped. Such busts and beautiful decoration is to be used as reflective of the Holy and be used as a battery to charge in ourselves the potential of righteousness/holiness. There's many, many other things I could bring up, but currently, I do not have the time. I want you to know. You inspire Me. From what I know of you, I find you to be a friend in God and very learned and righteous man worthy of the title Rabbi. I listen on the Sabbath. (Yes I reject Sunday as Sabbath, there is absolutely no grounds for anyone in the Bible and Apostalic writings to state that another other than the evening of Friday to Saturday be changed) 7. There is no such thing as The Old Testament, to call The Bible such is a heresy in itself as God's law and examples never become old, God does not change IT's mind, men who have written, inspired by God or something else, however, do. Anyway. If you are the knowledgeable man I think you are you will not judge Me for My harsh appearance, nor assume I do not cover My head to honour God in a place of Holiness kept for God's word or in private communion, not stating you will. I hope you will see My intentions are true and righteous and My eyes and ears are open to seeing the full scope of The Bible. Shalom, with Love, your brother in God.
I actually agree with much of what you've said here. May I suggest Clouds of Torah to learn more about false citations of the Tanak? I was a Christian for over 40 years but now follow Tanak and study Torah. Keep searching truth, brother.
This is very heavy. You have thought a lot of this through. Rabbi Singer is making generalizations based on the doctrine of the Church. I am not judging. But I do think you are much closer to the truth than the Chrch is. That said, I believe that the Church to which Rabbi Singer is referring to would probavly consider many of your views heretical. So the contradiction does not begin.
Actually when I red Genesis's story of Adam and Eve, I was always asking "How Satan will move on his belly!!" Therefore I was so sure that Christianity has changed the idea of serpant. But in Islam, I do believe that there was no serpant, but Satan himself in the Paradise. So Satan made them disobeying God. I find Quranic story more logical than Serpant story!! With respect.
Jannah Seeker Satanism in disguise is all this new age stuff, no bible just yoga meditation, etc, they believe in the Kundalini energy which is a snake in the spine and you open up the chakras so the snake can spread it’s self thru energy all in your body. That’s the “ultimate alignment” to achieve “Christ consciousness” to them. Oprah Winfrey and a lot of people of power promote this “spiritual enlightenment” look it up if you don’t believe me. They are used by satan to trap you and take you from Jesus. The Bible also states Eve didn’t know she was naked until the Snake enlightened her. I wouldn’t understand the Bible so that made me go other directions and I almost fell into this new age trap until something seemed off and I’d get Pyscosis episodes, and sleep paralysis and I just knew I needed Jesus. Oh also, they call sleep paralysis and Pyscosis episodes “spiritual awakening” nope, that’s the demon manifesting itself onto You, you have to understand the spiritual world is different from the physical world just believe in the word of Jesus even if you don’t understand it because he knows more than us on this physical plane.. he will Guide you to your true victory
its symbolic language, for an obviously symbolic tale. Evil spirits are associated with snakes and scorpions and other animals in ancient levantine religions
@@yanetcycordero3358 I can't believe that I could see all this ignorance in on reply. Let me tell you a thing.. Your Jesus is did, Satan killed him already in a miserable way .. He is Finito ..no more .. he couldn't save jim self from Satan, how would he save me ?
As a muslim I have a lot of respect for Rabbi Singer and admiration for his reaching out to other faiths. But I'm afraid to say when it comes to Satan both Judaism and Christanity are unwittingly guilty of giving Satan far more credit than he deserves.....
@@Rezparviz That's all Satan can do. Whispers. And during Ramadan satan is tied up. He is not as strong as the Satan depicted in Judaism and Christianity. There he is almost considered the diametrical opposite and as such an equal. In Islam satan is just a piece of crap!
@@Rezparvizwe believe Satan is a jinn, created from smokeless fire, and he was an extremely obedient jinn, so much so that he was allowed to join the angels (who are sinless and cannot disobey God) and jinns can choose to believe or disbelieve. So when Adam was created Satan disobeyed God and God cursed him. Satan said I will misguide humans as he was jealous of Adam due to him being created of fire and Adam mud. God sent Satan to hell and Satan said give me until the day they are resurrected . So God accepted his request. And Satan said I will mislead them from the left right front and behind. And these are the whispers but whoever returns in repentance to Allah will be forgiven.
in islam, we have to see the meaning of word 'shaitaan', shaitaan is not a name but it is an adjective, however, there was someone who was thrown away from heaven and that was not angel, but that was a jinn and the adjective shaitaan was used at that time, also-angels do not have free will, so an angel cannot fall into temptations.when we read quran, we see shaitaan is an adjective given to a person that disobey the God, meaning people that fall into temptations and keep doing sin and also it does not mean that jinn that got thrown away from the heaven is the cause of all the crazy things in the world, but his disobedience is described by the adjective 'shaitaan'. God gave us 1600cc cranial capacity to think and we cannot say that 'shaitaan trolled me'. that is why, we pray to God to keep us away from temptations.
Aamir B : but you believe in a jinn. A hardluck low level spirit that can possess people and make them do evil things. Yeah, that sounds better than what the Jews and Christians offer.
@@tcl5853 What differentiates Satan in Islam and that in Christianity is that Christians see Satan as a "fallen" angel, originator of evil and almost a godly being in opposition to God (like paganism) while the Islamic view is, in terms of terminology and concept, in agreement with the Hebrew Bible but, in terms of particular origins, attesting the Jewish apocryphal and pseudo-graphical scriptures. While angels do not have free will, demons (that is, the ones referred to as 'Shediim' by Hebrews and 'Jinn' by Arabs) can be good and evil like humans (unlike in Christianity) though mostly are evil. In Islamic scripture, evil humans and demons both are called 'satans' (indefinite and mostly plural) while 'Satan' ("the satan") is only an attributive name for a particular demon (so obviously good and evil demons predate him) who worshiped God so much that he was granted the rank (in honor not being) of an archangel but rebelled against God's will and refused to bow to Man (Adam), so was cast out of the Garden and asked God to give him the power to tempt and deceive his enemy, i.e., Man. So he was in opposition to humans (and not God), an "adversary" unto him and hence named. He is ultimately an agent of God but not like the angels. This account is not canon to the Hebrew Bible but present in Jewish apocryphal and pseudo-graphical scriptures.
In Islam Ibn Kathir book stories of the Prophets. Satan is a Jinn made out of smokeless fire with free will. What was Satan doing in heaven in the first place. Satan was on earth and use to worship Allah and when Allah sent the Angels to punish the jinn because they became disobedient. Satan was saved and went to heaven. When he refused to bow to Prophet Adam Allah swt said to get out of heaven. Satan said give me respite till Day of Judgement. And You will find mankind ungrateful
Rabbi, What do you think about the Parallels written in the cuneiform tablets that speak of, Ziasudra, Noah narratives, and the mentioning of the ancient God, Enki as the one warning Ziasudra of the flood? Also, to load Animals on the Boat he was to build with the instructions, just as Noah received instructions? Interesting subject. I would like to hear your opinion on these subjects and parallels. Thank you for your time.
I discuss this in many videos. All these accounts attest to the same event. Both Russian and American news services reported on 9/11 because it was a historical event.
@@ToviaSinger1 Thank you for the reply. It is interesting that the Cuneiform tablets speak about these events, and how these ancient beings were the heads over these centers. What I find interesting is the dates of the writings and which came first. Once I found that, (Umpteen Years ago), I realized that this goes back to Ancient Sumer. And the Gods that were over these centers, just so happen to have the same attributes of what has been written in the Biblical narratives. So then, I identified these ancient beings, and the biblical accounts hold the same motif. What it does, is identify these ancient beings and what countries they ruled over, (just like, in the biblical narratives). The people of Israel and Judah, were disobeying the LORD their God, and did Evil in the sight of the LORD. Who were these ancient Lords that they were worshipping? What did they represent? They were ruled, under the power and authority, of the most high GOD! Israel and Judah, did not listen to the LORD, and they were punished. Isaiah (Proto), was there with the four kings, during the 8th century, (when Tiglath-Pilesar III/Pulu was King and so on...). Israel was wiped out! Taken into captivity. Dispersed throughout the land. Judah was left. The most high god, over all of the lands, and these other ancient beings, was Marduk. And Isaiah, would have been in contact with the King and his entourage, during the discussions with Ahaz, pleading for help from the Assyrians. You see... Sennacharib, desecrated the temple of Marduk. And took Marduk's statue from the temple. What does Isaiah relate, He relates that the God of Israel, is going to destroy Assyria. Due to the kings Arrogance, and while worshipping, Nisroch/Ninurta, (an Anunnaki God under the power of Marduk) He was killed by his sons in his temple. His other son Esarhaddon ended up restoring Marduk's Temple, which was the restoration of the E-sagil(House of the lofty head). It goes on and on. I have written about these events. Most interesting, everytime a prophet was telling the people, somehow Babylon is always involved, with the Assyrians whom ruled Babylon, and the Neo-Babylonian era through Cyrus, who proclaims Marduk as the one who looked throughout the land to find him, and chose him. And according to (Deutero-Isaiah 45) he Would have been present during these events taking place, instead of a presuppositions from 8th century writings. I appreciate your response. Thank you for your time. I'm looking for some type of rectification. If you would, Discourse would be great! Awesome subjects here. Thanks again Rabbi, Have a great day!
There is a contradiction. You say we should want to be tempted, that is better than no temptation, then watch a bit more & you say you'd never do heroin , but according to your logic, you should want to be tempted to do heroin and yet you aren't, and finally you say that there is no temptation in the Messianic age, which one may reasonably assume is good, yet again, accordingly bad based on your initial point that we shouldn't want to live without temptation.
My understanding is that the temptation is the test, and when we pass, our character is growing more in the likeness of god. And our choice either its of life or death will either bring us closer to god (heaven) or away from god (hell). We learn to love g-d instead of being like programmed drones (its about deep relationship) messianic time the test is passed and no more need for temptation (we are togheter again with the glory of the creator and evil is done its job:) for now its a gigantic school where we learn to live in the image of our father
Thank you Rabbi Singer for clarifying Isaiah 14 and Ezekiel 28 and my hope is that Christiandom will drop their pride and arrogance and seek the counsel of Jewish rabbis to reveal these scriptures to them. So many living in fear and condemnation and bondage because of the misinterpretation of the OT. Keep up the good work.
Bereshit 3,14 So the Lord God said to the serpent, “Because you have done this, “Cursed are you above all livestock and all wild animals! You will crawl on your belly and you will eat dust all the days of your life. And I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your offspring[a] and hers; he will crush[b] your head, and you will strike his heel.” So,here we have the devil,who according to the rabbi is merely doing what God appointed him to do. So Satan was merely being a good servant of God,and was merely doing exactly that wich God ordered him to do. AND YET,even though satan was being completly obedient to God, God CURSED him BECAUSE of the fact that he seduced Eve. That does not make sense at all. If satan was merely being obedient,being a good servant of the Lord,doing exactly what God wanted him to do, then why did God CURSE him BECAUSE he tricked Eve?
There are NO Christians in the scriptures. They were first called: "Anointed ONES" in Antioch. Agrippa said: "Almost thou persuadest me to be an ANOINTED ONE". Look it up. Be aware of PAGAN words put in the bible to deceive the people.When a Christian is born again they CEASE from being Christians and are GRAFTED into Born Again Israel. Prov. 30:4 . His Name is Yahweh and His SON'S Name is Yahshua. The Words Christ (S) and Christian (s) are NOWHERE found in the SCRIPTURES.The WORD used in the SCRIPTURES is : "Anointed ONES" . The bible is a TRANSLATION of the Hebrew scriptures. The scriptures were written in Hebrew from Genesis to Revelation. The Christians translated the NEW Covenant scriptures into GREEK to remove the Name of the Creator YAHWEH and put their pagan greek god jesus in the bible. YAHweh's SON has ONLY one Name: YAHshua. Christianity is a PAGAN religion. The pagans that worshiped Serapis called themselves "CHRISTIANS". Christianity is the religion of the FALSE messiah. Yahweh let the Christians put pagan words in the bible to HIDE the truth from the sinners. Yahweh uses the bible to separate the Sheep from the goats. May Yahweh give you the understanding in these SALVATION scriptures for YOU. Bless you.
@@theguyver4934 Yes and yes. The New Testament contradicts the Hebrew Scriptures and I don't think Jesus intended to start a new religion because what he taught was more or less reasonable. Jesus lied when he says "No one comes to the Father except through me".... If he actually said that and not fabrication
The relationship between the Jewish and Christian understandings of Satan is kind of like two different languages with words that are pronounced the same way. For example, the word _die_ in English means _to lose life,_ but in German it means _the._ The word _Satan_ in Judaism and Christianity are quite different.
You Tovia, Your "god" was a tribal one, who was one of many "gods" EL was the Supreme "god"! There were many "gods" that Jews worshiped and it was only after many years that they settled for monotheism & YHWH was selected! So stop with the BS! Your "god" evolved from a VOLCANO to a Supreme Being! And NOW your "god" has become the EN SOF the same as the Hindus: The unedited full-text of the 1906 Jewish Encyclopedia: EN SOF ("boundless"; "endless"): By: Kaufmann Kohler, Isaac Broydé Cabalistic term for the Deity prior to His self-manifestation in the production of the world, probably derived from Ibn Gabirol's term," the Endless One" (she-en lo tiklah). It was first used by Azriel ben Menahem, who, sharing the Neoplatonic view that God can have no desire, thought, word, or action, emphasized by it the negation of any attribute. The Zohar explains the term "En Sof" as follows: "Before He gave any shape to the world, before He produced any form, He was alone, without form and without resemblance to anything else. Who then can comprehend how He was before the Creation? Hence it is forbidden to lend Him any form or similitude, or even to call Him by His sacred name, or to indicate Him by a single letter or a single point. . . . But after He created the form of the Heavenly Man [ ], He used him as a chariot [] wherein to descend, and He wishes to be called after His form, which is the sacred name 'Yhwh'" (part ii., section "Bo," 42b). In other words, "En Sof" signifies "the nameless being." EN KELOHENU (A)EN KELOHENU (B) In another passage the Zohar reduces the term to "En" (non-existent), because God so transcends human understanding as to be practically non-existent (ib. part iii. 288b). The three letters composing the word "En" () indicate the first three purely spiritual Sefirot ("Shoshan Sodot," 1b). Judah Ḥayyaṭ, in his commentary "Minḥat Yehudah" on the "Ma'areket Elahut," gives the following explanation of the term "En Sof": "Any name of God which is found in the Bible can not be applied to the Deity prior to His self-manifestation in the Creation, because the letters of those names were produced only after the emanation. . . . Moreover, a name implies a limitation in its bearer; and this is impossible in connection with the 'En Sof.'"

Jahrhunderts, p. 26, Frankfort-on-the-Main, 1895; Karppe, Etude sur les Origines et la Nature du Zohar, p. 344, Paris, 1901. Ein Sof Also spelled Ain Soph. This literally means without end, or eternal. God as Ein-Sof is completely inconceivable, impersonal, and without attributes. It's usage is strikingly similar to the Hindu term, Brahman. KABBALISTIC VIEW Ein Sof Infinity The term Ein Sof is sometimes taken in Kabbalah to refer to God's very essence. When more precisely used, Ein Sof refers to God's infinite light, before the beginning of the creative process. Ein Sof = 207 = Or ("light"). Were Ein Sof -- literally "no end" -- meant to refer to the essence of God, it would be more appropriate to call God Ein Techila -- "no beginning" ("no end" implies a "beginning" which precedes it, but nothing precedes God). The infinite light which emanates from God's very essence does in fact possess a beginning (God's essence) but does not possess an end. Even more precisely, Chassidut teaches (in the name of the Maggid of Mezritch) that Ein Sof refers to the infinite light generated by the malchut of Echad. The thought and desire of Ana Emloch resulted, spontaneously, in a "surge" of infinite energy and light to enact the creative process (just as the heart of a mortal king becomes full of "infinite" energy and light to materialize his will to rule). The relation between Ein Sof and the power of malchut is indicated by the fact that Ein Sof = Adon Olam ("the Master of the universe"; Ein = 61 = Adon, Sof = 146 = Olam). In the beginning of our daily prayers we praise God as: "The Master of the universe [Adon Olam] who ruled before any being was created." The surge of infinite energy and light, Ein Sof, is referred to in the Zohar as the Tehiru Ela'ah, the "higher brilliance" (in contrast to the Tehiru Tata'ah, the "lower brilliance," which appears after the initial contraction of God's infinite light).
Been a Christian most of my life. Some of the things you've mentioned here are exactly why I became Agnostic. I didn't trust the Christian Bible due to the wild inconsistencies. So many things didn't make sense. I then became a vocal opposition to Israel like so many others are, due to happenings in Gaza and the West Bank... But after watching hours upon hours of your video's, my questions have been answered 100%. I have children with two girlfriends I never married and I've done plenty of terrible things in my life but I'm hoping more than anything I can convert to Judaism and continue my journey into learning the Truth.
Rabbi, I feel you should recommend to your Christian listeners that they read these passages from the Tanakh and match up their bible with the verses, like a side-by-side comparison. The Christian bible has too many versions and has lost the true meaning/message. When reading passages they are not even close when comparing the Tanakh to the Christian bible. That's why most get lost in Isaiah. Isaiah is great to do this with. Thank you for your time and video presentation! Happy Yom Kippur😊👍
As I see it, In Gen 3, the accuser tempts the woman and then he says she would not die if she sins. He causes her to question the Creator's word and then he implies He is not bing honest and is just not wanting her to be like Him. What he says is in direct opposition to what the Creator said. Is that not the same as saying our Creator is lying? To me that is the same as calling into question our Creator's word and his integrity. We all know He can't lie, yet the accuser is basically saying that is what he is doing. I can't imagine the Creator ever being ok with anyone, man or even an angel saying He lies or questioning His righteous charachter or perfect word. I understand Him using influences to test his people, but I think He is too holy to ever be ok with any being slandering Him or his word, openly or by implication ,intensionally or by accident. Can you imagine any other holy servant saying the Creator isn't truthful or his word isn' true, even if it was to test one of his servants? Does it sound like the accuser is honoring the the Creator in Gen 3 with his words? Aren't the Creator's servants here to glorify him in word and action? As I read scripture, I never see it appropriate to say the Creator or his word aren't perfect and completely trustworthy. I also don't see the Creator blessing the interaction and actually see he cursed the serpent. I came here to get an understanding outlook of what others believe, but I am obviously not seeing things the same way on this subject.
Zarathustrianism was the theology of Cyrus who freed the Jews (and others) from Babylon. Cyrus commanded Jews to write Torah and to follow it. Cyrus was a/the Messiah.
If angels don’t have free will, how do you explain what the angels did in Genesis chapter 6? Why did God feel the need to bring the flood? Was is not because these angels rebelled? Does this not show they have free will? 😊🙏🏾🙏🙏🏽🙏🏿
"That the sons of the nobles saw the daughters of man when they were beautifying themselves, and they took for themselves wives from whomever they chose." No angels.
@@hrvatskinoahid1048 The fact that there says in Genesis 6:1, 2 - `When men started to grow in number ... and daughters were born to them, then the sons of the true God began to notice that the daughters if men were beautiful. So they began taking as wives all whom they chose.’ Whatever translation you chose, verse 2 will tell you, that the sons of God took `daughters of men’. 😊🙏🙏🏽🙏🏾🙏🏿
Having grown up in Jewish community, I was 13 when I found out people actually believed in a devil. I was like, no, you’re kidding, right? I thought the devil was a little red guy with a tail and fork I saw on cartoons.
In Islam we agree with Judaism that No Angel has free will All Angels are programmed to obey God, Angels never disobey God! so there is nothing called "Fallen Angel" Satan was a (Jinn) "Spirit" ' "demon" not an "Angel " and he had free will and was arrogant when he rebelled against God he was named "Satan".
Aymen Servant of God The word "satan" simply means adversary. There are no "fallen" devils, demons, etc. People use the devil as excuses for their own evil behaviors.
Nuts Toyou The Bible doesn't have everything, it is in The Quran , i have seen Jinn dying by a shooting Star with my own eyes! And people being Possessed by Jinn , the jinn speak using their mouths
13:30 I can't get my head around this. The rabbi is basically saying every bad choice you make is because Satan put the choice before you. Every temptation in your life is the work of Satan. He also says Satan does God's work. Then he says it's necessary for free will? This sounds like a sadistic parent. I was with ya rabbi, but you just lost me.
@kt95 gy I've looked into it a bit... not quite ready to dive into Islam yet, that's gonna need some time for solo inquiry. But what I have seen so far has already raised questions.
In Judaism there is a concept of "minimization" - צמצום . That since G-d is everywhere and all-encompassing He had to "minimize" himself in order to create the universe and it's beings. He then minimized His presence within the world creating a Hidden presence. The Hebrew word עולם (world) has the same root as the word העלם (hidden). G-d did this in order to allow us to earn our reward in the world to come. So that we don't fell like free-loaders for all eternity G-d gave us challenges. He gave us a pull away from Himself - the satan or yetzer hara and a pull toward himself - the yetzer hatov. (Think of the Id and the Super Ego in psychology) The concept is that along with the challenges we are presented with the tools to overcome them. There is also a concept in Judaism of a "point of choice" נקודתהבחירה .That is, that every individual is only tested according to hid current place along a moving ruler of choices. The Talmud brings the example of a thief from a family of gangsters, who's choice was to rob without murdering, as opposed to, not robbing at all. The concept is very powerful. G-d gave humanity the ability to choose to believe that He doesn't exist, in order to allow us to be close to Him by free will and to achieve our closeness to Him for all eternity.
According to the usual interpretation, the term pontifex literally means "bridge-builder" (pons + facere); "maximus" literally means "greatest." This was perhaps originally meant in a literal sense: the position of bridge-builder was indeed an important one in Rome, where the major bridges were over the Tiber, the sacred river (and a deity): only prestigious authorities with sacral functions could be allowed to "disturb" it with mechanical additions. However, it was always understood in its symbolic sense as well: the pontifices were the ones who smoothed the bridge between gods and men (Van Haeperen). Sorry Rabbi!!!
"Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who place darkness for light and light for darkness, who place bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter." -- Bible (The Hebrew Prophet Isaiah)
Satan doesn't push you towards God, he make us an enemy of God's will and separate us from God and them accuses us before God all the time. Jesus is our defender in the Throne of God He intercedes for us and says, "Yes they've sinned but they repented and I gave my blood for them" and God forgives us. Thats how it works otherwise you die in your sins for eternity, because, there is not more Jerusalem Temple with arc of the covenant, or animal sacrifices to cleance your sins.
I’m a Christian but I’m not of modern day Christianity. I believe what your saying and agree. So much pagan fables have been adopted into the Christian world. As well as the false trinity concept. I love Israel and await for the messiah to return. I’m also not a Jew for Jesus either. I love your teachings Rabbi Tovia. I wish you would come to Australia and do talks. I would love to attend. Shalom ☝️
Well, we do actually have writings outside of Christianity that mention Jesus. They don't say he was the Son of God (at least not the originals), but they show he was very likely a real person.
@@MrGame-sj4bl Never found any that had any credibility. He is the least provable being in history. In addition, there were a number of people named "Yeshua". None of them walked on water or claimed to be part of a trinity.
@@fazbell Fair, we have evidence that at least one writing, Josephus, was edited (Being a devout non-Christian Jew, it is very likely that he didn't call Jesus the Messiah, especially since later on in his writings when referring to him, he says "Jesus-who-is-called-Christ"). I still find it more plusable that Jesus was a actual person though. To my knowledge, one of the reasons some Jews don't or have trouble accepting Jesus as the Messiah is that the Son of God having to die is not in the Tanakh (from what I know). Why would the followers of Jesus, knowing at least some of the Sprictures (the Gospels call back to them multiple times, mostly for propercy), say that Jesus died? If I was trying to make up a story to convince people that someone was God, saying that they died would probably lower my chances of converting people. It's probably not a good tactic for deceiving people, so it's more likely in my opinion that someone named Jesus was actually cuifixed.
@@MrGame-sj4bl Religion is the worst kind of lie. It does nothing but divide the human race. Judaism is certainly more rational than Christianity,but all religions are a zero-sum game.
The Islamic knowledge about Satan (Iblis).. Angles are beings that have no Will of their own. They act as instructed by God. They do not have free will. Jinns and Humans are two creation of God that have been gifted with Free Will. They can choose to act on their intellect and will. They can either choose to follow the commands of God or reject it. Satan (Iblis) who was gifted with Free Will, is a Ginn, who excelled in worshipping God so much that he was raised to the positions of Angles! When God created the first human (Adam Ale Islam) and commanded Angles (Along with Satan-Iblis, who lived amongst them) to bow to God's creation- Adam Ale Islam, Satan's superiority complex and his ego came in his way of following God's commandment (remember Ginns and humans have the gift of exercising their will). Satan (Iblis) rejected the command to bow down to the human creation as he felt Adam Ale islam to be inferior to him When Satan (Iblis) rejected God's command and refused to bow down to Adam Ale Islam, God banished Satan (Iblis) Satan - Iblis asked God to give him time to prove that mankind isnt worthy of the status bestowed upon them by God and has asked till the last day to be able to waylay mankind and lead him astray, after which, on judgement day, he along with mankind who did not follow God's commandments, can be punished by God and sent to hell. God has given Satan-Iblis time till the last day, after which all creation will be judged. And to save mankind from Satan-Iblis, God has promised mankind that he will send messengers to help mankind to follow the correct path. Now it's up to mankind to take the guidance sent in the form of numerous prophets and messengers by God or go astray. On judgment day when mankind will blame Satan for going Astray, Satan-Iblis will tell mankind, "I have no power over you in any kind, I only whispered in your ears. You made the choice. So don't blame me when God sent you messengers and Prophets to guide you to the correct path". That's why the Quran starts with Satan is the cursed one and to follow God and that Satan is Mankind's biggest enemy
I love ur explanation on the reason for Shaytaans existence and free will. same as Islamic understanding but I must admit u explained it better than Muslim scholars However what I fail to understand is ur defence for the existence of Israel and the killing and suffering of so many Palestinians. How can their pain and suffering be the will of God?...especially when they are also considered "bani Noah"
nadia m tovia is indeed a zionist. all this talk about Christians being idoliter and pagens but you can hear praising the Christian zionist as "righteous gentiles". the Palestinians are enemies to him, their crime is existing. this is tovia's flaw, he is corrupted by zionism.
@@AhmadDakhlallah1 dude there is no such thing a palestinian in the ORIGINAL text within the Quran. AND the Quran explicitly stated that G-D gave the ISRAEL to the Jewish people. The Jews are also called Israel by name.. Look man I'm sorry that the government threw you out of your homes..and that the PA treats you like dogs. But if you actually believe in Devine Providence then you understand that the prophecy of the Jewish people returning back to Israel is being fullfilled.

Isaiah 14:12-16 King James Version (KJV) 12 How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations! 13 For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north: 14 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High. 15 Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit. 16 They that see thee shall narrowly look upon thee, and consider thee, saying, Is this the MAN that made the earth to tremble, that did shake kingdoms;
What you just said got me kicked out of my church 45:7. I feel that satan has a 'job' as seen in the Book of Job - to test to see what one fears. And to fear ANYTHING else but God is the same as to NOT 'trust' God in His goodness, and this is the essence of faith. God allows evil as another means of 'guiding' us, the difference between the staff and the rod. This is also why (and how) God demonstrated this not only by Moses 'changing staff', but that Moses 'serpent' could EAT (use) the other serpents... and then turn back into a serpent again. I see so much wisdom as such - through this duality view - a 'soveriegn' God, AND also causes the ability to RIGHTLY DIVIDE the word of God, Isaiah 1 and Psalm 1 being great examples.

@Blaster Master Your fairly accurate here. However, the changes they made was the Oral Torah which was filled with traditions much like the religious teachings of the Roman church are filled with traditions. It was for that reason that Jesus called the pharisees "serpents and offspring of viper because you teach doctrines of men rather than commands of God". Yes, Jesus blasted them because of the traditions found in the Oral Torah. To him, the law of Moses and the writings of the early prophets, the Written Torah, were the sacred and inspired word of his God and Father.

Zechariah 3:1-4 New International Version 3 Then he showed me Joshua the high priest standing before the angel of the Lord, and Satan[a] standing at his right side to accuse him. 2 The Lord said to Satan, “The Lord rebuke you, Satan! The Lord, who has chosen Jerusalem, rebuke you! Is not this man a burning stick snatched from the fire?” 3 Now Joshua was dressed in filthy clothes as he stood before the angel. 4 The angel said to those who were standing before him, “Take off his filthy clothes.” Then he said to Joshua, “See, I have taken away your sin, and I will put fine garments on you.” John 3:16 “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
G-d asked Satan what he had been doing, so clearly Satan did G-D's bidding. I love snakes the bigger the better, I wonder what that say about me. I also love Hashem very much ,
The Hebrew satan means adversary, any adversary, human or alien. If God had an enemy, then God is not God, my God has no ENEMIES! My enemy is the galactic collective evil consciousness aka yetzer ha-ra of James 1:12 - 16. (14) a man is tempted by his own personal lusts.
In zoroastrianism there are two essenses "the good" and "the bad" and only one God called Ahuramazda lord of wisdom in later ages the medes priests changed it to dualism if you call ancient religion of persia which is way older than Judaism and according to all scholars the very first monotheisic reliogn then i should remind you your Hashem asks for animal sacrifice a very pagan way just like gods of egypt and and greece sth that Is very forbidden in ancient Persia so be respectful towards other cultures
Before watching this, I'm guessing he'll address how I've wondered why Satan is portrayed very differently in Job, Genesis, Isaiah, and the New Testament. They've always felt like very different characters to me.
That's easy. It's because satan is a title, a description. So it is different people or beings. It is whomever the opposition is in the particular passage. He even quotes scripture at 6:50 where angels are called satan (for impeding the man's donkey from going forward).
Is there a better way to read the Torah than from start to finish? Im stuggeling a bit cus all the listings of names. Im reading it from a regular translated bible.
Very well said you exactly interpreting the Quran chapter 7 chapter 201 which says in english Indeed, when Satan whispers to those mindful ˹of Allah˺, they remember ˹their Lord˺ then they start to see ˹things˺ clearly.

If you really want to know what that serpent really was, check out a video from youtuber trey the explainer's about leviathan. He showd the history of behind the mythology.
Judaism came out of Babylonian mythology Kingu was sent by Tiamat to war with the gods this was repeated in Greek mythology as Guia sending Typhon against the gods when jews moved to monotheism from polytheism the evil one went from being a dragon to a serpent with a much more obscure origins Allalu attempted to seize the throne of heaven and ultimately fled into the Eden when he was defeated by Anu twice Anu and Allahlu wrestle for authority which is likely the inspiration for Jacob and the Wrestling of the Angel Israel that alone is speculative but when consider Anu lost his manhood during the wrestling match you now have reason to recognize the practice circumcision came out of this story practiced among Pre-israliites called the igigi that eventually became the Israelites. This theoretical its not excepted history.
So many Christians ignore that line and focus on Romans 6:14 instead: "For sin shall not have dominion over you, for you are not under law but under grace." Christianity really is the cult of Paul.
Its referring to mans carnal nature, the old man that lives in each of us before we submit to God thru repentance. Pure metaphor. Mans heart is wicked ABOVE ALL ELSE. We are in rebellion against God by sinning and breaking his commandments.
I think that Satan still loves God, and he do what he must- he is bounded by his status as a cherub, and just can't du anything really that goes against Gods will. And if you remember what the bible says about the flood, that God regretted making humans - so it's kind of in line. We should clam tighter to the cherub Michael , that came down as Jesus Christ, to give us a heads up, and plow a road for us to walk on - and he did the work perfectly, even as dead! He is now a temporary king in heaven, with the task of fulfilling the change of heart that he and other managed to remind God that killing us all, was not really in the line of Love, a fundamental aspect of the all mighty God. With Christs insight on how it is to be human - we can still have hope. But if we die, the main part of us will just be reabsorbed by the creator, and the flesh will be left to rut. The one God is all, and everything is a aspect of the one and only God.

@Blaster Master I do believe in Rabbi Tovia that NT is a corrupted book. too many contradictions and the shady part is there's no proof of Jesus outside NT.
@Blaster Master
I am a true Christian. True Christians teach Judaism just as the early Christian congregation did. Jesus was an Essene Jew as were his apostles and his earliest followers. They ALL taught Judaism. In fact, Jesus stated at John 4:22 " You worship what you do not know; we worship what we know, because SALVATION BEGINS WITH THE JEWS." Those who claim to be Christian but do not teach Judaism are false imitation Christians. As an Essene Jew, Jesus Christ viewed the Written Torah as his God and Father's inspired and sacred word and so do true Christians today. In fact, everything Jesus taught, he taught from the Greek Septuaguint LXX because the Christian Greek scriptures had not yet been written while he was still on earth.
@@silentlurker1324
The Christian Greek scriptures are not a "corrupted book", but rather they are a different law covenant. As for being contradictory, no they are not. The contradictions come from the teachings and traditions of the churches of Christendom, but not from the Christian Greek scriptures themselves. In fact, they also do not contradict the Written Torah although the churches of Christendom do everything in their power to try to make them contradict. And yes....there is lots of proof of Jesus outside the NT, but not if you look at it from the viewpoint of the churches of Christendom with its false teachings. Many Jews are in agreement that "the angel of Jehovah" that is spoken of throughout the Hebrew scriptures is the Messiah and he is the one who protected the ancient nation of Israel from pharoah and the Egyptian army. He is the "Prince of Jehovah's army" as described at Joshua 5:13-15 as well as the one referred to at Daniel 10:13 as "One of the foremost princes" and also the "Great Prince" mentioned at Daniel 12:1. The word "Prince" also means "ruler" and there are only 2 rulers in heaven that are mentioned in scripture....God and his Son. That is why Dan.10:13 calls him ONE OF THE foremost princes. If you read the account at Joshua 5:13-15, you will notice that the man Joshua spoke to commanded him to take off his sandals because he was standing on holy ground. So who is this prince or commander of Jehovah's armies of billions of angels that was able to command holy ground if not the great princely Son of the Great God and King of the Universe, Jehovah God???
@@donald2306 simple question: can you prove the authenticity of Jesus outside NT? fyi, I studied Bible for many years. I know how corrupted NT is.
@@silentlurker1324
If you are speaking of proving scripturally from the Hebrew scriptures the authenticity of Jesus outside of what is taught about him in the NT....yes, absolutely I can prove it. However, give ear please to the counsel found at Proverbs:
Prov.3:5 "Trust in Jehovah with all your heart,
And do not rely on your own understanding."
It is one thing to "study" the bible, and it is quite another to learn what it teaches by first approaching Jehovah in prayer and asking for his Spirit and direction to help you to understand what it is you are studying. Psalms also offers strong counsel regarding the manner in which we need to study God's written word:
Ps.1:2 "But his delight is in the law of Jehovah,
And he reads His law in an undertone day and night."
Now does this mean that we should read the bible every minute of every day and every minute of every night?....No!....But what it does mean is that when we DO read it, we need to read it in an undertone. What does it mean to read it in an undertone? It means to "meditate". In other words, when you read something from God's written word, you need to stop and ask yourself questions such as "What does it mean here in Ecclesiastes when God says that when a man dies he knows nothing at all, that he has no works and no wisdom? What is God trying to tell me here?" This helps us to get the proper sense of what it is we are reading. I do not just "study" the bible. Rather, I study and teach it. I am not just a student of the bible, I am a "professor" of its meaning and I "profess" (or teach) it.....ALL of it! When it comes to what the bible teaches one might even say that all of Jehovah's Witnesses have PHD's, BA's, and even Doctorates in what both the Hebrew and the Christian Greek scriptures teach. The most basic part of what Jehovah's Witnesses teach is JUDAISM, and when properly taught, MUCH of JUDAISM is also found in the Christian Greek Scriptures. Sadly, the pagan churches of Christendom have grossly misrepresented the Judaic teachings of the Christian Greek scriptures and completely hidden them behind the veil of the trinity and other pagan traditions. Keep in mind that Jesus was an Essene Jew and his apostles and the very first christian disciples were also Jews and they gathered and met and taught in the Jewish synagogues. Don't think for a moment that they just simply stopped practicing and teaching Judaism because had they done so and attempted to teach what the churches of Christendom teach, there would have been riots and uprisings against them and no such thing is recorded in the historical records of early Israel or among the Jews.
the problem is many believers don't want to know the truth, as much as they want to think they already know the truth.

He is more like the Philisees and does not believe in Christ being Jesus. You need to read the Bible over and over because his belief is the one practiced before Jesus was born to this world for our Savior. This is what devided the many Jews from the ones that Jesus chose as His followers to spread the word to the world. He has not believeed in the Son of God in my knowledge and is still waiting for the first coming of Christ. Listen carefully because to believe in God's plan, is to follow Jesus. Only about half the OT is accepted and the second half and the NT have never been accepted by many Jews. If you read the Bible and compare with the daily news you can see what was written thousanda of years ago is fact now. There are no lies written in the Bible.

Awesome lecture by Rabbi Singer, as usual.
This guy exudes so much passion... it's amazing to watch.
Passion for G-d, yes, of course. But, also Culture, and heritage, and history... It's groovy!
A lot of people throw the term 'OCD' around without really understanding what it is. As a sufferer, i understand it inside and out. My specific kind is 'Scrupulosity' (The religious oriented kind).
For most of my life, I was so utterly tormented, convinced that I was going to wind up in a Pagan 'Hell' because of my 'intrusive thoughts' (which I could not control).
Anyway.... ultimately I found myself at this 'Christian Retreat' run by two nutcases. My condition was just exacerbating. The experience was horrible. But, I did stumble upon one tiny bit of information, which really was the catalyst that provoked me to study Theology. I simply found out that The Tanakh says everyone goes to Sheol.
Wait a second. G-d's original word says everyone goes to Sheol and NOT 'Heaven or Hell'...
This is what 'planted the seed'.
Over the years thereafter, I continued to study more and more, and it was just painfully and blatantly obvious that Chriatianity was so unequivocally Pagan. Because of this 'Revelation' (so to speak), my crippling fear of this Pagan Hell popularized by Platonic Hellenic Philosophy started to fade.
I'm so grateful, because I suffered so badly. I experienced more panic attacks than I could possibly count.
I must confess... I don't have exceptional 'faith', but i love study Jewish Theology and History. It resonates with me. Also my father is Jewish, but he's very 'secular'.
I recently contacted the Synagogue where I live, but I never received a reply.
I'll call again. Hopefully, they're not strict adherents to the Mandatory 'Maternal Doctrine'.
Anyway... Very good lecture as always.
I have a friend that was raised in Judaism, but no longer practices. He told me that they have no concept of the afterlife and I asked him about Sheol and he never heard of it, which I thought was odd.
You should probably just go to the Synogague in person, if you haven't already. I used to go to a Hare Krishna temple and they were horrible at returning voice mail and E-mail, but friendly when you showed up in person.
Maybe the Synogague is the same way?
@@robstanton4630 I'll do that. Thanks.
@@robstanton4630 it's strange that your allegedly 'Jewish' buddy said that (paraphrase) in Judaism there is no concept of life beyond 'Sheol' (the grave). That's simply not accurate.
Indeed, Jews don't 'obsess' about it like Christians and Muslims.
As you likely know The Jewish Religion is divided into 2 'paradigms' (so to speak). Olam HaZe (This World) and Olam HaBa (The World to Come). The Tanakh pretty well deals exclusively with Olam HaZe. I think this is the reason why there's so much 'confusion'.
The prophesied 'Mashiach' will usher I The new Epoch (Olam HaBa) and all people (Save for the people that G-d has destroyed) will go through (Gaulah) a Redemptive Event where Soul is reunited with body and everyone resurrects from their grave. This is one of the reasons why Jews are not 'supposed to be cremated.
Before this occurs, though, all souls are generally believed to go through a process called 'Gehinnom'. This is often referred to as 'Hell'. It can only last for a Maximum of 12 months, though. If you cannot be 'Spiritually Cleansed' (Tahor) in that period, you are 'destroyed'. After that process you just go to Gan Eden (Heaven) and chill there until Mashiach comes.
The reason Jews never talk about that is because, well... none of us care.
Unlike Pagans who all want to exist devoid of a 'body'... devoid of 'The Material', in Judaism a 'body' is considered a good thing.
Bodies are 'practical'. You can 'do stuff with them.
So, the focus is all on Olam HaBa... The World to Come, where Soul is reunited with body.
@@robstanton4630 my chabad is three hours away lol. I will have to move honestly.
My personal experience exactly.. As I read on Jesus' life and teachings, He seems to sound different than what I am taught in Catechism and Sunday schools.. Jesus makes a lot of sense when I listen to him as a Jew... This is the reason I am here, to orient myself with Jewish theology.
Hi may I know what you have discovered or uncovered so far?
im a christian and rhese question bothers me too. I mean how do we christians who came 1000 years later re-interpret books the jews had for all that time? That means that moses who supposedly wrote the torah forgot to tell the jews or he himself didnt know who the serpernt was. Then if there is a force that is equal to God then that means God has never been fully incontrol of the situation. God wins Some ,The devil wins some. it is an absurd idea.
Secondly from the christian perpective the Noah story raises more question than answers. why would God drown the whole humanity to start afresh when his opponent who happens to be the main sorce of the evil is still there? W ont the adverserly just do the same as he did to the rest?
Satan is only referensed 6 times in the old testament. and in most of those times he is in the company of God which got me thinking that for someone who supposedly live in hell he surely does spend a lot of time in heaven and it began to seem very strange

The NT also tells us that jc had to die so that our sins could be forgiven. The OT tells us different.
1. A sin offering had to be a female goat or sheep. (Lev 4:32) Jesus was a human being.
2. A sin offering could NOT be injured or have any wounds or weeping sores on their body. (Lev 22:22) Jesus has many wounds on his body prior to his death.
3. A sin offering could not have any injuries or defects on the body (Lev 22:25) Jesus was beaten, whipped and pierced prior to his death.
4. A sin offering had to be taken to the priest and sacrificed on the altar in the temple. To offer a sacrifice anywhere else was an unacceptable to God. (Deut 12:13-14) Jesus died on a stake on a hill.
5. The Torah tells us that human sacrifice of any kind is an abomination to God. (Deut 12:31 and 18:10 also Ezek 16:20) Jesus death would have been a human sacrifice.
6. The Torah tells us, no man can die in place of or be a ransom for another. (Palm 49:7-8)
7. The Torah tells us, every man is accountable for his own sin, and that a father cannot take the responsibility for the sins of his children. (Ezek 18:20) Jesus did not die for us.
This tells me that there is no need for JC. If I were to continue to believe (as I used to) that JC had to die for my sins, then it would mean that I didn't believe in what G-d said.
Isaiah 40:8 tells us, The grass shall dry out, the blossom shall wilt, but the word of our God shall last forever.
I cannot deny G-d's word, for I believe it to be true. So I decided to deny JC. My research goes way beyond this. I discovered the 7 laws of Noah too and live by them. I also now read the Jewish Tanakh and not the bible.

The gospels and epistles illuminate the Hebrew bible.
The Hebrew bible in turn gives a foundation to the Gospels and epistles.
R. Singer is in error when he claims ' Christian's agree that the Hebrew bible would still stand without the Gospels/epistles, a simple example of this is found in Hebrews 1:1-3
"In the past God spoke to our father's many times and in various ways,
but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed the heir of all things and through whom he made the universe.
The Son is the radiance of God's glory and the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word.
If you don't know what the Son is saying you cannot hear from God.
God the Father didn't stop speaking to his creation at Sinai.
It's not only a mistake but an insult to the Father, to disregard his words, and then decide to impose religion on him, we do not call him the Living God for no reason.
Listen to him! not only has he spoken by his Son, but Jesus is alive today and is still speaking to us by his Spirit through his word(Hebrew bible+ New testament)
Why the Christian pick in choosing from Old Testament and never accept it the whole

Who is that man ? Who shook kingdoms, especially with their Atomic bomb ? Is it not the white man ? Just asking because it's not the Jamaicans, Africans, Aborigines or native Americans. Who is this man that shook the nations and spread racism across the planet, created Nazism and the far right, built The Church of Satan , practices Luciferian doctrines and is referred to as Lucifer in the book of Isaiah ?
The word LUCIFER was first introduced by JEROME, a Latin priest/historian. So the original word 'heylel' (comes from the root word HALAL that can mean 2 different things...it can mean bright and shiny one or in the negative sense to boast, to be mad, to rage) was corrupted back in the 400s. The word LUCIFER is a LATIN word that means 'light-bearer', the equivalent in HEBREW is 'AARON'. The word Lucifer is the name attributed to the bright star, VENUS. So the original meaning was removed and hidden! This is what it should read in Isaiah 14: 12, "How you have fallen from the heavens, Oh YOU INCREDIBLY ARROGANT AND MAD BOASTER! You have been cut down to the ground, you who laid low the nations!" This obviously was the king of Babel, as verse 4 states.
What differentiates Satan in Islam and that in Christianity is that Christians see Satan as a "fallen" angel, originator of evil and almost a godly being in opposition to God (like paganism) while the Islamic view is, in terms of terminology and concept, in agreement with the Hebrew Bible but, in terms of particular origins, attesting the Jewish apocryphal and pseudo-graphical scriptures. While angels do not have free will, demons (that is, the ones referred to as 'Shediim' by Hebrews and 'Jinn' by Arabs) can be good and evil like humans (unlike in Christianity) though mostly are evil. In Islamic scripture, evil humans and demons both are called 'satans' (indefinite and mostly plural) while 'Satan' ("the satan") is only an attributive name for a particular demon (so obviously good and evil demons predate him) who worshiped God so much that he was granted the rank (in honor not being) of an archangel but rebelled against God's will and refused to bow to Man (Adam), so was cast out of the Garden and asked God to give him the power to tempt and deceive his enemy, i.e., Man. So he was in opposition to humans (and not God), an "adversary" unto him and hence named. He is ultimately an agent of God but not like the angels. This account is not canon to the Hebrew Bible but present in Jewish apocryphal and pseudo-graphical scriptures.
Very well said brother may Allah reward you the jannah
Do you have children? Lets say you did would you allow someone of bad influebce around your children all the time?....and when they fall into temptation and ruin their lives and the lives of others as a result of bad (constant) influence would you still allow that bad influence around your child?
@@daspecialist1220 How this related here?
DEAR RABBI TOVIA PLEASE READ CHAPTER 13 OF MATHEWS GOSPEL VERSES 24 TO 43 . JESUS EXPLAINS WHO IS SATAN AND WHAT IS HIS MISSION. SATAN AND FALLAN ANGELS ARE DEFINITELY ADVERSERIES TO GOD AND THEY HAMPER GODLY PLANS. SATAN IS FALLEN ANGEL CALLED NAKASH WHO DECEIVED EVE AND ADAM IN THE GARDEN OF EDEN. SATAN HAS PROMOTED FALSE RELIGIONS AND EVEN TODAY THE REAL DESCENDANTS OF 10 LOST TRIBS OF ISRAEL VIZ HINDUS ARE IN HIS CLUTCHES
THE SPIRITUAL ACTIVITIES OF SATAN IS TO CREATE AND PROMOTE FALSE GOSPELS AND RELIGIONS TO COUNTER JUDAISM AND CHRISTIANITY. THAT IS WHY THERE ARE MANY GODS AND LORDS WORSHIPPED BY MEN. THE POWER OF SATAN OVER MANKIND IS UNBELIVEABLE AND NO BODY TALKS ABOUT HIM NOR HE IS CRITICIZED. ACCORDING TO PAUL SATAN IS GOD OF THIS AGE.AND MANKIND IS BLINDFOLDED BY HIM. HE HAS RULED OVER THE MANKIND BY POWER OF DEATH. BUT HE NOW STANDS DEFEATED BECAUSE OF THE RESSURECTION OF JESUS AND BELIEVERS HAVE POWER TO RESI 18:20 ST HIM. HE IS ALSO THE VILLAN IN THE HISTORY OF ISRAEL NATION AND 😢TODAY ALSO HE IS ALSO VERY ACTIVE AS MANY NATIONS HAVE NOT RECOGNISED JERUSALEM AS CAPITAL OF ISRAEL THE FLASHPOINT OF LAST WAR ON EARTH.
The truth of this is blatant in the book of Job
As a recovering Christian, when I read Job on my own terms, I was appalled at what I’d been brought up to think about Satan and by inference what I thought about God.
Appalling, yes 😢 ✅️
But Rabbi Singer's opinion is that giving up Christianity is a holy gift to God, one which an Orthodox Jew can never give to the Creator 💝 🤲
So Satan is basically an episode of Undercover Boss
Satan in Christianity is something a scared 8 year old kid would come up with, Judaism's approach is infinitely more mature.
I agree . Are you a Christian ? Have you ever been one
Islam exposes the truth about Satan...
Satan isn't a fallen Angel, he is a DJinn, Angel's dont have free-will, mankind and DJinn do...
The old and new testament's do not have this information...
The last testament guides unto all truth...
@NORMAH BTE RAUF (KB) Angels don't have free will. The 'Jinn' are demons, not genies, you idiot. They are the same as the Jewish 'Shediim,' supernatural beings who can be both good and bad like humans. Abrahamic Judaism and Islam differs from pagan Christianity.
You are incorrect, the Bible talks about Satan and his position before he became a fallen angel in rebellion. He was created like every other Angel in heaven is only his rebellion that has caused them to now hold the title of a demon. The Bible tells us all we need to know about Satan and his origin. Angels in fact do have free will, if they did not have free will they would never have been an incident in heaven where I 3rd of the heavenly angels fell into rebellion against God. This is recorded in the Bible. I would advise that if you are a Muslim that you get your hands on a good translation of the Bible and sit down and read it there is much in the Bible that is not recorded in the Koran. The Bible contains the truth.
For those Christians, who take literaly the Bible, Torah, Tarnach, and Gospels, as the word of God,- solo scriptura - can't follow any religion and Church Rules, men made by Church Leaders and counsils. As you said there is one God, who created the whole universe with everything, also the Angels by his word. And the word of God is the Son of God. And Satan ist one of the Angels. His role is described in Job and Gospels too. Thank you. God bless you all.
What are you trying to say
The Devil, named Iblees or Shaitaan (Satan) in Islam, is a being from amongst the Jinn, a species separate to the Angels, Humans and Animals.
It is a core belief in Islam that Iblees is not an Angel, as Angels are not beings that have free will and therefore it is impossible for them to disobey God.
From amongst the Jinn, Iblees (Satan) was the most pious and righteous of all, in fact he had reached such a high level that he was in the company of the Angels in the heavens due to his piety, it was when Allah (God) created Adam, the first human being, that Iblees’ downfall began.
As mentioned in the Qur’an, Allah decided to create the first human being, Adam, from clay. Once Adam was fully created, Allah commanded everyone in the heavens to bow down to Adam out of respect, not out of worship in the way that Muslims prostrate to Allah.
“And we have certainly created you, [O Mankind], and given you [human] form. Then we said to the angels, “Prostrate to Adam”; so they prostrated, except for Iblees. He was not of those who prostrated.”[Qur’an: Al-A’raaf 7:11]
As mentioned in the above verse, the command was given to everyone including Iblees who is mentioned together with the angels.
This verse often causes confusion amongst people who don’t have knowledge of the Arabic language, and on the face of the translation it suggests that Satan was an angel instead of a Jinn, fitting into the Judeo-Christian theology. However this type of phrase is common in Arabic i.e. to mention two separate types of people in one group, for example “All of the students left, except the teacher.” It does not mean that the teacher is a student, however it is an easier way to describe the situation.
Iblees refused to obey the command of Allah, the following verse tells us the reason why he did not bow down.
“[Allah] said, “What prevented you from prostrating when I commanded you?” [Satan] said, “I am better than him. You created me from fire and created him from clay.” [Qur’an: Al-A’raaf 7:12]
Iblees was in essence the first racist to ever exist, this stemmed from his immense arrogance and pride over who he was, which ultimately led to his downfall,
Excellent comment.
How did islam come up with this theory?
@@urielt5808 from the Qur'an
So lucifer is a morning star aka planet venus not a being like satan that christian always babbling about, christian do really need to read the bible lol
I agree 👍 😂
Rabbi, I've watched/listened to quite a few of your videos. I am Christian (Universalist in Logic/Catholic is expression, the irony that Universal/Catholic are one in the same in meaning). I respect your zeal, I admire and applaud your knowledge of religion(s) and of course The Scripture.
That being stated, there are some things which you have stated which are too generalized, although mostly true about those who consider themselves Christian.
1. I do not find the book of Job as heretical. As a matter of fact I use the story in many theological debates between Myself and people of different theological points of view, and without belief altogether who do not understand the point of life's struggle.
2. I do not believe that Yahshua is God, it doesn't add up biblically. Obviously, given our religious affiliation, we differ on His role and connection with God. Though I love hearing your breakdown of counter arguments that heavily dispute Yahshua's Divine connection.
3. I agree that Satan's role is not the anti-God presence, but acts solely as the Divine enforcer of God's Law and Tempter to test the righteous/holy.
4. I do not believe that people should be going over to the Holy Land to make a dispute/convert Jews. I also don't believe that it is right to call Israel a true Israel until The Messiah comes to lead the Jews to unite and in the name of peace that all should fall to that same peace of their own freewill, as God had so instilled.
5. My feelings of Paul, the selfish apostle, differs from the vast majority of Christians as I find he broke himself from the bonds of St. Peter's stewardship/sheparding if we are being orthodox to the Apostalic Gospels lol. It is no doubt the reason why Martin Luther essentially worshipped Paul, for many reasons (anti-semitism, selfish drive, schism, fanatical and violent zeal, etc). Paul comes later and doesn't stand in the presence of Yahshua, he doesn't have a right to question Peter who was renamed given his name by supposed Divine appointment.
6. The icons and adornation of The Church are not to be worshipped. Such busts and beautiful decoration is to be used as reflective of the Holy and be used as a battery to charge in ourselves the potential of righteousness/holiness.
There's many, many other things I could bring up, but currently, I do not have the time.
I want you to know. You inspire Me. From what I know of you, I find you to be a friend in God and very learned and righteous man worthy of the title Rabbi. I listen on the Sabbath. (Yes I reject Sunday as Sabbath, there is absolutely no grounds for anyone in the Bible and Apostalic writings to state that another other than the evening of Friday to Saturday be changed)
7. There is no such thing as The Old Testament, to call The Bible such is a heresy in itself as God's law and examples never become old, God does not change IT's mind, men who have written, inspired by God or something else, however, do.
Anyway. If you are the knowledgeable man I think you are you will not judge Me for My harsh appearance, nor assume I do not cover My head to honour God in a place of Holiness kept for God's word or in private communion, not stating you will.
I hope you will see My intentions are true and righteous and My eyes and ears are open to seeing the full scope of The Bible.
Shalom, with Love, your brother in God.
I actually agree with much of what you've said here. May I suggest Clouds of Torah to learn more about false citations of the Tanak? I was a Christian for over 40 years but now follow Tanak and study Torah. Keep searching truth, brother.
This is very heavy. You have thought a lot of this through. Rabbi Singer is making generalizations based on the doctrine of the Church. I am not judging. But I do think you are much closer to the truth than the Chrch is. That said, I believe that the Church to which Rabbi Singer is referring to would probavly consider many of your views heretical. So the contradiction does not begin.
I love this. It is such a great teaching. Baruch HaShem.
Actually when I red Genesis's story of Adam and Eve, I was always asking "How Satan will move on his belly!!" Therefore I was so sure that Christianity has changed the idea of serpant.
But in Islam, I do believe that there was no serpant, but Satan himself in the Paradise. So Satan made them disobeying God. I find Quranic story more logical than Serpant story!! With respect.
Jannah Seeker Satanism in disguise is all this new age stuff, no bible just yoga meditation, etc, they believe in the Kundalini energy which is a snake in the spine and you open up the chakras so the snake can spread it’s self thru energy all in your body. That’s the “ultimate alignment” to achieve “Christ consciousness” to them. Oprah Winfrey and a lot of people of power promote this “spiritual enlightenment” look it up if you don’t believe me. They are used by satan to trap you and take you from Jesus. The Bible also states Eve didn’t know she was naked until the Snake enlightened her. I wouldn’t understand the Bible so that made me go other directions and I almost fell into this new age trap until something seemed off and I’d get Pyscosis episodes, and sleep paralysis and I just knew I needed Jesus. Oh also, they call sleep paralysis and Pyscosis episodes “spiritual awakening” nope, that’s the demon manifesting itself onto You, you have to understand the spiritual world is different from the physical world just believe in the word of Jesus even if you don’t understand it because he knows more than us on this physical plane.. he will Guide you to your true victory
its symbolic language, for an obviously symbolic tale. Evil spirits are associated with snakes and scorpions and other animals in ancient levantine religions
@@yanetcycordero3358 I can't believe that I could see all this ignorance in on reply. Let me tell you a thing.. Your Jesus is did, Satan killed him already in a miserable way .. He is Finito ..no more .. he couldn't save jim self from Satan, how would he save me ?
Very simple....evil exist so we can understand what goodness is. Life requires contrast. Life is possible because of opposites.
As a muslim I have a lot of respect for Rabbi Singer and admiration for his reaching out to other faiths. But I'm afraid to say when it comes to Satan both Judaism and Christanity are unwittingly guilty of giving Satan far more credit than he deserves.....
I agree . What do Muslims teach about Satan because a lot of Muslims I know if believe Satan is behind a lot of whispers ?
@@Rezparviz
That's all Satan can do. Whispers.
And during Ramadan satan is tied up.
He is not as strong as the Satan depicted in Judaism and Christianity.
There he is almost considered the diametrical opposite and as such an equal.
In Islam satan is just a piece of crap!
@@Rezparvizwe believe Satan is a jinn, created from smokeless fire, and he was an extremely obedient jinn, so much so that he was allowed to join the angels (who are sinless and cannot disobey God) and jinns can choose to believe or disbelieve. So when Adam was created Satan disobeyed God and God cursed him. Satan said I will misguide humans as he was jealous of Adam due to him being created of fire and Adam mud. God sent Satan to hell and Satan said give me until the day they are resurrected . So God accepted his request. And Satan said I will mislead them from the left right front and behind. And these are the whispers but whoever returns in repentance to Allah will be forgiven.
Very interesting. How so?
@@bigtomboye
The way Satan stands up to God places God in bad light
By saying he refuses to bow down in front of Adam makes God appear weak.
the heart of man is more deceitful above all things ,we don't need satan to sin
that why in Hebrew we call it YETZER HARA (evil inclination)
in islam, we have to see the meaning of word 'shaitaan', shaitaan is not a name but it is an adjective, however, there was someone who was thrown away from heaven and that was not angel, but that was a jinn and the adjective shaitaan was used at that time, also-angels do not have free will, so an angel cannot fall into temptations.when we read quran, we see shaitaan is an adjective given to a person that disobey the God, meaning people that fall into temptations and keep doing sin and also it does not mean that jinn that got thrown away from the heaven is the cause of all the crazy things in the world, but his disobedience is described by the adjective 'shaitaan'. God gave us 1600cc cranial capacity to think and we cannot say that 'shaitaan trolled me'. that is why, we pray to God to keep us away from temptations.

In Islam Ibn Kathir book stories of the Prophets. Satan is a Jinn made out of smokeless fire with free will. What was Satan doing in heaven in the first place. Satan was on earth and use to worship Allah and when Allah sent the Angels to punish the jinn because they became disobedient. Satan was saved and went to heaven. When he refused to bow to Prophet Adam Allah swt said to get out of heaven. Satan said give me respite till Day of Judgement. And You will find mankind ungrateful
there is no Allah. there is only the God of the Bible.
Rabbi, What do you think about the Parallels written in the cuneiform tablets that speak of, Ziasudra, Noah narratives, and the mentioning of the ancient God, Enki as the one warning Ziasudra of the flood? Also, to load Animals on the Boat he was to build with the instructions, just as Noah received instructions? Interesting subject. I would like to hear your opinion on these subjects and parallels. Thank you for your time.
I discuss this in many videos. All these accounts attest to the same event. Both Russian and American news services reported on 9/11 because it was a historical event.
@@ToviaSinger1 Thank you for the reply. It is interesting that the Cuneiform tablets speak about these events, and how these ancient beings were the heads over these centers. What I find interesting is the dates of the writings and which came first. Once I found that, (Umpteen Years ago), I realized that this goes back to Ancient Sumer. And the Gods that were over these centers, just so happen to have the same attributes of what has been written in the Biblical narratives. So then, I identified these ancient beings, and the biblical accounts hold the same motif. What it does, is identify these ancient beings and what countries they ruled over, (just like, in the biblical narratives). The people of Israel and Judah, were disobeying the LORD their God, and did Evil in the sight of the LORD. Who were these ancient Lords that they were worshipping? What did they represent? They were ruled, under the power and authority, of the most high GOD! Israel and Judah, did not listen to the LORD, and they were punished. Isaiah (Proto), was there with the four kings, during the 8th century, (when Tiglath-Pilesar III/Pulu was King and so on...). Israel was wiped out! Taken into captivity. Dispersed throughout the land. Judah was left. The most high god, over all of the lands, and these other ancient beings, was Marduk. And Isaiah, would have been in contact with the King and his entourage, during the discussions with Ahaz, pleading for help from the Assyrians. You see... Sennacharib, desecrated the temple of Marduk. And took Marduk's statue from the temple. What does Isaiah relate, He relates that the God of Israel, is going to destroy Assyria. Due to the kings Arrogance, and while worshipping, Nisroch/Ninurta, (an Anunnaki God under the power of Marduk) He was killed by his sons in his temple. His other son Esarhaddon ended up restoring Marduk's Temple, which was the restoration of the E-sagil(House of the lofty head).
It goes on and on. I have written about these events. Most interesting, everytime a prophet was telling the people, somehow Babylon is always involved, with the Assyrians whom ruled Babylon, and the Neo-Babylonian era through Cyrus, who proclaims Marduk as the one who looked throughout the land to find him, and chose him. And according to (Deutero-Isaiah 45) he Would have been present during these events taking place, instead of a presuppositions from 8th century writings.
I appreciate your response. Thank you for your time. I'm looking for some type of rectification. If you would, Discourse would be great! Awesome subjects here.
Thanks again Rabbi, Have a great day!
There is a contradiction. You say we should want to be tempted, that is better than no temptation, then watch a bit more & you say you'd never do heroin , but according to your logic, you should want to be tempted to do heroin and yet you aren't, and finally you say that there is no temptation in the Messianic age, which one may reasonably assume is good, yet again, accordingly bad based on your initial point that we shouldn't want to live without temptation.
My understanding is that the temptation is the test, and when we pass, our character is growing more in the likeness of god. And our choice either its of life or death will either bring us closer to god (heaven) or away from god (hell). We learn to love g-d instead of being like programmed drones (its about deep relationship) messianic time the test is passed and no more need for temptation (we are togheter again with the glory of the creator and evil is done its job:) for now its a gigantic school where we learn to live in the image of our father
Thank you Rabbi Singer for clarifying Isaiah 14 and Ezekiel 28 and my hope is that Christiandom will drop their pride and arrogance and seek the counsel of Jewish rabbis to reveal these scriptures to them.

Bereshit 3,14
So the Lord God said to the serpent, “Because you have done this,
“Cursed are you above all livestock
and all wild animals!
You will crawl on your belly
and you will eat dust
all the days of your life.
And I will put enmity
between you and the woman,
and between your offspring[a] and hers;
he will crush[b] your head,
and you will strike his heel.”
So,here we have the devil,who according to the rabbi is merely doing what God appointed him to do.
So Satan was merely being a good servant of God,and was merely doing exactly that wich God ordered him to do.
AND YET,even though satan was being completly obedient to God,
God CURSED him BECAUSE of the fact that he seduced Eve.
That does not make sense at all.
If satan was merely being obedient,being a good servant of the Lord,doing exactly what God wanted him to do,
then why did God CURSE him BECAUSE he tricked Eve?
Your question is larger than you think why is the earth cursed what did it do.
There are NO Christians in the scriptures. They were first called: "Anointed ONES" in Antioch. Agrippa said: "Almost thou persuadest me to be an ANOINTED ONE". Look it up. Be aware of PAGAN words put in the bible to deceive the people.When a Christian is born again they CEASE from being Christians and are GRAFTED into Born Again Israel. Prov. 30:4 . His Name is Yahweh and His SON'S Name is Yahshua. The Words Christ (S) and Christian (s) are NOWHERE found in the SCRIPTURES.The WORD used in the SCRIPTURES is : "Anointed ONES" . The bible is a TRANSLATION of the Hebrew scriptures. The scriptures were written in Hebrew from Genesis to Revelation. The Christians translated the NEW Covenant scriptures into GREEK to remove the Name of the Creator YAHWEH and put their pagan greek god jesus in the bible. YAHweh's SON has ONLY one Name: YAHshua. Christianity is a PAGAN religion. The pagans that worshiped Serapis called themselves "CHRISTIANS". Christianity is the religion of the FALSE messiah. Yahweh let the Christians put pagan words in the bible to HIDE the truth from the sinners. Yahweh uses the bible to separate the Sheep from the goats. May Yahweh give you the understanding in these SALVATION scriptures for YOU. Bless you.

You Tovia,
Your "god" was a tribal one, who was one of many "gods"
EL was the Supreme "god"!
There were many "gods" that Jews worshiped and it was only after many years that they settled for monotheism & YHWH was selected!
So stop with the BS!
Your "god" evolved from a VOLCANO to a Supreme Being!
And NOW your "god" has become the EN SOF the same as the Hindus:
The unedited full-text of the 1906 Jewish Encyclopedia:
EN SOF ("boundless"; "endless"):
By: Kaufmann Kohler, Isaac Broydé
Cabalistic term for the Deity prior to His self-manifestation in the production of the world, probably derived from Ibn Gabirol's term," the Endless One" (she-en lo tiklah). It was first used by Azriel ben Menahem, who, sharing the Neoplatonic view that God can have no desire, thought, word, or action, emphasized by it the negation of any attribute. The Zohar explains the term "En Sof" as follows:
"Before He gave any shape to the world, before He produced any form, He was alone, without form and without resemblance to anything else. Who then can comprehend how He was before the Creation? Hence it is forbidden to lend Him any form or similitude, or even to call Him by His sacred name, or to indicate Him by a single letter or a single point. . . . But after He created the form of the Heavenly Man [ ], He used him as a chariot [] wherein to descend, and He wishes to be called after His form, which is the sacred name 'Yhwh'" (part ii., section "Bo," 42b). In other words, "En Sof" signifies "the nameless being."
EN KELOHENU (A)EN KELOHENU (B)
In another passage the Zohar reduces the term to "En" (non-existent), because God so transcends human understanding as to be practically non-existent (ib. part iii. 288b). The three letters composing the word "En" () indicate the first three purely spiritual Sefirot ("Shoshan Sodot," 1b). Judah Ḥayyaṭ, in his commentary "Minḥat Yehudah" on the "Ma'areket Elahut," gives the following explanation of the term "En Sof":
"Any name of God which is found in the Bible can not be applied to the Deity prior to His self-manifestation in the Creation, because the letters of those names were produced only after the emanation. . . . Moreover, a name implies a limitation in its bearer; and this is impossible in connection with the 'En Sof.'"

Ein Sof
Also spelled Ain Soph. This literally means without end, or eternal. God as Ein-Sof is completely inconceivable, impersonal, and without attributes. It's usage is strikingly similar to the Hindu term, Brahman.
KABBALISTIC VIEW
Ein Sof
Infinity
The term Ein Sof is sometimes taken in Kabbalah to refer to God's very essence.
When more precisely used, Ein Sof refers to God's infinite light, before the beginning of the creative process. Ein Sof = 207 = Or ("light"). Were Ein Sof -- literally "no end" -- meant to refer to the essence of God, it would be more appropriate to call God Ein Techila -- "no beginning" ("no end" implies a "beginning" which precedes it, but nothing precedes God). The infinite light which emanates from God's very essence does in fact possess a beginning (God's essence) but does not possess an end.
Even more precisely, Chassidut teaches (in the name of the Maggid of Mezritch) that Ein Sof refers to the infinite light generated by the malchut of Echad. The thought and desire of Ana Emloch resulted, spontaneously, in a "surge" of infinite energy and light to enact the creative process (just as the heart of a mortal king becomes full of "infinite" energy and light to materialize his will to rule).
The relation between Ein Sof and the power of malchut is indicated by the fact that Ein Sof = Adon Olam ("the Master of the universe"; Ein = 61 = Adon, Sof = 146 = Olam). In the beginning of our daily prayers we praise God as: "The Master of the universe [Adon Olam] who ruled before any being was created."
The surge of infinite energy and light, Ein Sof, is referred to in the Zohar as the Tehiru Ela'ah, the "higher brilliance" (in contrast to the Tehiru Tata'ah, the "lower brilliance," which appears after the initial contraction of God's infinite light).
Buddy,Wow? Are you a Chief Elder? Must be?
Blessings to You
Been a Christian most of my life. Some of the things you've mentioned here are exactly why I became Agnostic. I didn't trust the Christian Bible due to the wild inconsistencies. So many things didn't make sense. I then became a vocal opposition to Israel like so many others are, due to happenings in Gaza and the West Bank...
But after watching hours upon hours of your video's, my questions have been answered 100%. I have children with two girlfriends I never married and I've done plenty of terrible things in my life but I'm hoping more than anything I can convert to Judaism and continue my journey into learning the Truth.
If you are called to join the people of Israel, wonderful. But at least first become Ben Noach.
tags NOLA thanks I looked into this. It’s been really helpful, thank you.
Rabbi, I feel you should recommend to your Christian listeners that they read these passages from the Tanakh and match up their bible with the verses, like a side-by-side comparison. The Christian bible has too many versions and has lost the true meaning/message. When reading passages they are not even close when comparing the Tanakh to the Christian bible. That's why most get lost in Isaiah. Isaiah is great to do this with. Thank you for your time and video presentation! Happy Yom Kippur😊👍
Oh boy..
This is absolutely brilliant.
As I see it, In Gen 3, the accuser tempts the woman and then he says she would not die if she sins. He causes her to question the Creator's word and then he implies He is not bing honest and is just not wanting her to be like Him. What he says is in direct opposition to what the Creator said. Is that not the same as saying our Creator is lying? To me that is the same as calling into question our Creator's word and his integrity. We all know He can't lie, yet the accuser is basically saying that is what he is doing. I can't imagine the Creator ever being ok with anyone, man or even an angel saying He lies or questioning His righteous charachter or perfect word. I understand Him using influences to test his people, but I think He is too holy to ever be ok with any being slandering Him or his word, openly or by implication ,intensionally or by accident. Can you imagine any other holy servant saying the Creator isn't truthful or his word isn' true, even if it was to test one of his servants? Does it sound like the accuser is honoring the the Creator in Gen 3 with his words? Aren't the Creator's servants here to glorify him in word and action? As I read scripture, I never see it appropriate to say the Creator or his word aren't perfect and completely trustworthy. I also don't see the Creator blessing the interaction and actually see he cursed the serpent. I came here to get an understanding outlook of what others believe, but I am obviously not seeing things the same way on this subject.
He’s not always right
Zarathustrianism was the theology of Cyrus who freed the Jews (and others) from Babylon. Cyrus commanded Jews to write Torah and to follow it. Cyrus was a/the Messiah.
Thank you Rabbi Singer, you and the other Rabbi”s are truly an enlightened voice of Hashem, here on earth.
If angels don’t have free will, how do you explain what the angels did in Genesis chapter 6? Why did God feel the need to bring the flood? Was is not because these angels rebelled? Does this not show they have free will? 😊🙏🏾🙏🙏🏽🙏🏿
"That the sons of the nobles saw the daughters of man when they were beautifying themselves, and they took for themselves wives from whomever they chose." No angels.
@@hrvatskinoahid1048 The fact that there says in Genesis 6:1, 2 - `When men started to grow in number ... and daughters were born to them, then the sons of the true God began to notice that the daughters if men were beautiful. So they began taking as wives all whom they chose.’

Having grown up in Jewish community, I was 13 when I found out people actually believed in a devil. I was like, no, you’re kidding, right? I thought the devil was a little red guy with a tail and fork I saw on cartoons.
In Islam we agree with Judaism that No Angel has free will All Angels are programmed to obey God, Angels never disobey God! so there is nothing called "Fallen Angel" Satan was a (Jinn) "Spirit" ' "demon" not an "Angel " and he had free will and was arrogant when he rebelled against God he was named "Satan".
Aymen Servant of God The word "satan" simply means adversary. There are no "fallen" devils, demons, etc. People use the devil as excuses for their own evil behaviors.
Nuts Toyou yes Satan means adversery, but there are demons and devils ( Satan's pedigree)
Prove it -- there is no such thing in the bible -- only in stories.
Nuts Toyou
The Bible doesn't have everything, it is in The Quran , i have seen Jinn dying by a shooting Star with my own eyes!
And people being Possessed by Jinn , the jinn speak using their mouths
***** yes we believe Satan exist, so Jews don't believe in Satan? Ok so who made Adam & Eve eat from the tree??? Barney The Dinosaur? Lol
wonderful speaker. the human mind will look at anything but itself to understand the cause of its suffering
13:30 I can't get my head around this. The rabbi is basically saying every bad choice you make is because Satan put the choice before you. Every temptation in your life is the work of Satan. He also says Satan does God's work. Then he says it's necessary for free will? This sounds like a sadistic parent. I was with ya rabbi, but you just lost me.
@kt95 gy The rabbi wasn't talking about Islam....not sure what you are getting at?
@kt95 gy I've looked into it a bit... not quite ready to dive into Islam yet, that's gonna need some time for solo inquiry. But what I have seen so far has already raised questions.
In Judaism there is a concept of "minimization" - צמצום . That since G-d is everywhere and all-encompassing He had to "minimize" himself in order to create the universe and it's beings. He then minimized His presence within the world creating a Hidden presence. The Hebrew word עולם (world) has the same root as the word העלם (hidden). G-d did this in order to allow us to earn our reward in the world to come. So that we don't fell like free-loaders for all eternity G-d gave us challenges. He gave us a pull away from Himself - the satan or yetzer hara and a pull toward himself - the yetzer hatov. (Think of the Id and the Super Ego in psychology)
The concept is that along with the challenges we are presented with the tools to overcome them. There is also a concept in Judaism of a "point of choice" נקודתהבחירה .That is, that every individual is only tested according to hid current place along a moving ruler of choices. The Talmud brings the example of a thief from a family of gangsters, who's choice was to rob without murdering, as opposed to, not robbing at all.
The concept is very powerful. G-d gave humanity the ability to choose to believe that He doesn't exist, in order to allow us to be close to Him by free will and to achieve our closeness to Him for all eternity.
Yea I'm lost too with this.
Brilliant! As a Jesus believer your Jewish wisdom is extraordinary! Brilliant wisdom but Jesus is the Son of God.
According to the usual interpretation, the term pontifex literally means "bridge-builder" (pons + facere);
"maximus" literally means "greatest." This was perhaps originally meant
in a literal sense: the position of bridge-builder was indeed an
important one in Rome, where the major bridges
were over the Tiber, the sacred river (and a deity): only prestigious
authorities with sacral functions could be allowed to "disturb" it with
mechanical additions. However, it was always understood in its symbolic
sense as well: the pontifices were the ones who smoothed the bridge
between gods and men (Van Haeperen). Sorry Rabbi!!!
"Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who place darkness for light and light for darkness, who place bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter." -- Bible (The Hebrew Prophet Isaiah)

Satan doesn't push you towards God, he make us an enemy of God's will and separate us from God and them accuses us before God all the time. Jesus is our defender in the Throne of God He intercedes for us and says, "Yes they've sinned but they repented and I gave my blood for them" and God forgives us. Thats how it works otherwise you die in your sins for eternity, because, there is not more Jerusalem Temple with arc of the covenant, or animal sacrifices to cleance your sins.
I’m a Christian but I’m not of modern day Christianity. I believe what your saying and agree. So much pagan fables have been adopted into the Christian world. As well as the false trinity concept.
I love Israel and await for the messiah to return. I’m also not a Jew for Jesus either. I love your teachings Rabbi Tovia. I wish you would come to Australia and do talks. I would love to attend. Shalom ☝️
what di you mean with jew for jesus?
Pretending that "Yeshua" actually existed, serves no purpose whatsoever. It just makes the Christoids feel better about their mythology.
Well, we do actually have writings outside of Christianity that mention Jesus. They don't say he was the Son of God (at least not the originals), but they show he was very likely a real person.
@@MrGame-sj4bl Never found any that had any credibility. He is the least provable being in history. In addition, there were a number of people named "Yeshua". None of them walked on water or claimed to be part of a trinity.
@@fazbell Fair, we have evidence that at least one writing, Josephus, was edited (Being a devout non-Christian Jew, it is very likely that he didn't call Jesus the Messiah, especially since later on in his writings when referring to him, he says "Jesus-who-is-called-Christ").
I still find it more plusable that Jesus was a actual person though. To my knowledge, one of the reasons some Jews don't or have trouble accepting Jesus as the Messiah is that the Son of God having to die is not in the Tanakh (from what I know). Why would the followers of Jesus, knowing at least some of the Sprictures (the Gospels call back to them multiple times, mostly for propercy), say that Jesus died?
If I was trying to make up a story to convince people that someone was God, saying that they died would probably lower my chances of converting people. It's probably not a good tactic for deceiving people, so it's more likely in my opinion that someone named Jesus was actually cuifixed.
@@MrGame-sj4bl Religion is the worst kind of lie. It does nothing but divide the human race. Judaism is certainly more rational than Christianity,but all religions are a zero-sum game.

The Islamic knowledge about Satan (Iblis)..
Angles are beings that have no Will of their own. They act as instructed by God. They do not have free will.
Jinns and Humans are two creation of God that have been gifted with Free Will. They can choose to act on their intellect and will. They can either choose to follow the commands of God or reject it.
Satan (Iblis) who was gifted with Free Will, is a Ginn, who excelled in worshipping God so much that he was raised to the positions of Angles!
When God created the first human (Adam Ale Islam) and commanded Angles (Along with Satan-Iblis, who lived amongst them) to bow to God's creation- Adam Ale Islam, Satan's superiority complex and his ego came in his way of following God's commandment (remember Ginns and humans have the gift of exercising their will). Satan (Iblis) rejected the command to bow down to the human creation as he felt Adam Ale islam to be inferior to him
When Satan (Iblis) rejected God's command and refused to bow down to Adam Ale Islam, God banished Satan (Iblis)
Satan - Iblis asked God to give him time to prove that mankind isnt worthy of the status bestowed upon them by God and has asked till the last day to be able to waylay mankind and lead him astray, after which, on judgement day, he along with mankind who did not follow God's commandments, can be punished by God and sent to hell.
God has given Satan-Iblis time till the last day, after which all creation will be judged. And to save mankind from Satan-Iblis, God has promised mankind that he will send messengers to help mankind to follow the correct path.
Now it's up to mankind to take the guidance sent in the form of numerous prophets and messengers by God or go astray.
On judgment day when mankind will blame Satan for going Astray, Satan-Iblis will tell mankind, "I have no power over you in any kind, I only whispered in your ears. You made the choice. So don't blame me when God sent you messengers and Prophets to guide you to the correct path".
That's why the Quran starts with Satan is the cursed one and to follow God and that Satan is Mankind's biggest enemy
I love ur explanation on the reason for Shaytaans existence and free will. same as Islamic understanding but I must admit u explained it better than Muslim scholars However what I fail to understand is ur defence for the existence of Israel and the killing and suffering of so many Palestinians.

Isaiah 14:12-16 King James Version (KJV)
12 How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!
13 For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north:
14 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High.
15 Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit.
16 They that see thee shall narrowly look upon thee, and consider thee, saying, Is this the MAN that made the earth to tremble, that did shake kingdoms;
In Hebrew it הֵילֵל which mean praised (verb) not Lucifer.

The Satanic Show : so you should be, stop complaining, didn’t you listen 👂.
What you just said got me kicked out of my church 45:7.
I feel that satan has a 'job' as seen in the Book of Job - to test to see what one fears. And to fear ANYTHING else but God is the same as to NOT 'trust' God in His goodness, and this is the essence of faith.
God allows evil as another means of 'guiding' us, the difference between the staff and the rod. This is also why (and how) God demonstrated this not only by Moses 'changing staff', but that Moses 'serpent' could EAT (use) the other serpents... and then turn back into a serpent again.
I see so much wisdom as such - through this duality view - a 'soveriegn' God, AND also causes the ability to RIGHTLY DIVIDE the word of God, Isaiah 1 and Psalm 1 being great examples.
And please, tell me the name of the song in the end of the video, i love it!

@Blaster Master
Your fairly accurate here. However, the changes they made was the Oral Torah which was filled with traditions much like the religious teachings of the Roman church are filled with traditions. It was for that reason that Jesus called the pharisees "serpents and offspring of viper because you teach doctrines of men rather than commands of God". Yes, Jesus blasted them because of the traditions found in the Oral Torah. To him, the law of Moses and the writings of the early prophets, the Written Torah, were the sacred and inspired word of his God and Father.
I often write about these changes but this crushes these innovations to original scripture. no trinity, no paul gospel, no pope, no ignoring of kosher/halal. christians just ignore these things.

Zechariah 3:1-4
New International Version
3 Then he showed me Joshua the high priest standing before the angel of the Lord, and Satan[a] standing at his right side to accuse him. 2 The Lord said to Satan, “The Lord rebuke you, Satan! The Lord, who has chosen Jerusalem, rebuke you! Is not this man a burning stick snatched from the fire?”
3 Now Joshua was dressed in filthy clothes as he stood before the angel. 4 The angel said to those who were standing before him, “Take off his filthy clothes.”
Then he said to Joshua, “See, I have taken away your sin, and I will put fine garments on you.”
John 3:16
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
G-d asked Satan what he had been doing, so clearly Satan did G-D's bidding.

In zoroastrianism there are two essenses "the good" and "the bad" and only one God called Ahuramazda lord of wisdom in later ages the medes priests changed it to dualism if you call ancient religion of persia which is way older than Judaism and according to all scholars the very first monotheisic reliogn then i should remind you your Hashem asks for animal sacrifice a very pagan way just like gods of egypt and and greece sth that Is very forbidden in ancient Persia so be respectful towards other cultures
Before watching this, I'm guessing he'll address how I've wondered why Satan is portrayed very differently in Job, Genesis, Isaiah, and the New Testament. They've always felt like very different characters to me.
A Rabbi in Jakata, what do you expert from him.
That's easy. It's because satan is a title, a description. So it is different people or beings. It is whomever the opposition is in the particular passage. He even quotes scripture at 6:50 where angels are called satan (for impeding the man's donkey from going forward).

If you really want to know what that serpent really was, check out a video from youtuber trey the explainer's about leviathan. He showd the history of behind the mythology.
Judaism came out of Babylonian mythology Kingu was sent by Tiamat to war with the gods this was repeated in Greek mythology as Guia sending Typhon against the gods when jews moved to monotheism from polytheism the evil one went from being a dragon to a serpent with a much more obscure origins
Allalu attempted to seize the throne of heaven and ultimately fled into the Eden when he was defeated by Anu twice Anu and Allahlu wrestle for authority which is likely the inspiration for Jacob and the Wrestling of the Angel Israel that alone is speculative but when consider Anu lost his manhood during the wrestling match you now have reason to recognize the practice circumcision came out of this story practiced among Pre-israliites called the igigi that eventually became the Israelites.
This theoretical its not excepted history.
Matthew 5 : 17 " Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law and the Prophets, I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them."
Yup that means all Christians need to follow the Torah, Muslim here.
So many Christians ignore that line and focus on Romans 6:14 instead: "For sin shall not have dominion over you, for you are not under law but under grace." Christianity really is the cult of Paul.
Its referring to mans carnal nature, the old man that lives in each of us before we submit to God thru repentance. Pure metaphor. Mans heart is wicked ABOVE ALL ELSE. We are in rebellion against God by sinning and breaking his commandments.
You'd think satan's mission would be to avoid the apocalypse that would be his doom
I think that Satan still loves God, and he do what he must- he is bounded by his status as a cherub, and just can't du anything really that goes against Gods will.
And if you remember what the bible says about the flood, that God regretted making humans - so it's kind of in line.
We should clam tighter to the cherub Michael , that came down as Jesus Christ, to give us a heads up, and plow a road for us to walk on - and he did the work perfectly, even as dead! He is now a temporary king in heaven, with the task of fulfilling the change of heart that he and other managed to remind God that killing us all, was not really in the line of Love, a fundamental aspect of the all mighty God.
With Christs insight on how it is to be human - we can still have hope.
But if we die, the main part of us will just be reabsorbed by the creator, and the flesh will be left to rut.
The one God is all, and everything is a aspect of the one and only God.
