When my oldest son began talking, one of the first things he tried to convey to me and his mother was he remembered being shown us before he was born. It was important to him that he communicate that to us for some reason. Now I know, after listening to you, what it was he wanted us to know. Thank you Rabbi. I didn't know you 2 weeks ago, and now you are very important to me spiritually.
Pretty awesome 👍
This sounds demonic. It's certainly not accurate, or Biblical.
I don’t agree with this version of the account in Eden at the so called deeper level. It comes across as a distortion of the image of God the creator who said that what he had created was good. The god presented in this account is a dishonest god full of guile and trickery. We were never meant to Die but because of the error of our parents we die. Don’t believe everything you hear even from a someone who claims to possess deeper knowledge. We are in the last days. Test every spirit!
@@jasonbanda45 You are absolutely correct.
@jasonbanda45 Thanks the encouragement. 👍🏻 There's so many liqueurs, bourbons, wines, and beer left for me to try. Matter of fact, I'm testin' one right now. 🍺 Cheers! 🍻
Thank you hashem for the internet and thank you rabbi Friedman for your channel and the story's of wisdom 😊😊❤🎉
Thank you rabbi Friedman.
Bless you and your family.
Happy Purim ❤
Thank you Rabbi Friedman
The snake was his penis ..and thats it ..not respecting Eve’s cycle ..he wanted to use her vagina ..her temple as a masturbation tool and most men today still do this 10000%
I like rabbi Friedman's teachings, but I can't swallow the timeline being proposed here. Are we saying he didn't even start of to naming the animals, plants and other creation? He didn't get off to tending the garden? Didn't the Torah say God came in the cool of the evenings? And on the day Adam sinned, God returned in the cool of the evening. One thing I love about Judaism is that we are allowed to have questions and ask them. That way we are safe from human control through doctrines.
The Torah came in the evening 8:00 PM Eastern Standard Time. LOL
Good point
Thank you Rabbi Friedman.
It is a comfort to our Heavenly Father to hear someone testifying to His true heart of love for us.
I love it how you are inventing God in your own image.
If he was created in the creators own image, how better to study the creator than through the created.
Thank you Mr Rabbi ❤ you have helped me understand more about the Bible in one day than my 48 years of being born into Christianity with a preacher earthly father. Wow thank you so much ❤
There is nothing better than an old man with a wise beard for the children. It never stops to amaze me.
Thank you Rabbi…
Thank you rabbi Friedman ❤
Toda rabbah Rabbi for the enlightenment. Gadol...
So now i know this Rabbi makes things up I'll just enjoy his teachings as the fairytales they are🙃
How is he lying?
i wish everyone can hear this Thank you❤❤❤
Thank you Rabbi for the information.
How beautifully explained❤❤❤
Amen Rabbi what amazing insights. Thank you for your insights and revelations it's much appreciated.
he was there...😂
תודה רבה ❤
Love this.
Thank you so much
That's straight up Gnostic heresy.
Bingo that's exactly what I thought
Uh the whole Bible is Kabbalistic Gnosticism
Uneducated evangelical, do you even know what Gnosticism is?
Gnosticism is more complex
Revelation 2:9 …and the blasphemy by those who say they are Jews and are not, but are a synagogue of Satan.
Thank you for this, Rabbi. I am of the Christian persuasion but I find what you say profound, as profound as the story of the woman taken in adultery. Together they make sense of the world I find myself in. In reply to some comments below, I have heard you say this before, but 1) it isn't any easy thing to really grasp, and 2) everyone needs to know it.
You are talking to a man who doesn't have the Bible at his foundation, rather, he has occultic mysticism as his foundation. You won't find accuracy here. Unfortunately, and sad to say, spiritual ignorance has been a heavy millstone around the neck of Jews for too long.
@@dezertfox3681
He left out many parts of the scripture here and also mentioned things with which he didn’t reference where he got that information. Where does it talk about the souls. Of the man and women in heaven and then told all this stuff to be sent to earth? Deception is strong in this guy!
@@dezertfox3681 Ad hominem.
@@carinarazek6369 A place with no death, and God walking around in the cool of the evening, talking to you. Couldn't possibly be heaven, could it?
Thank you for the objective, G-d.
To be grateful and to put others before us will change everyone’s destiny.
G-d bless you Rabbi. Thank you very much.
That was one of his best videos in my opinion. I would love to hear all the stories in the Torah in this fashion, in order, so I can truly hear what is being told to us.
Tradition repeatedly shows or mentions the apple. Yet, the first indication of a specific fruit mentions the leaves of a fig tree sewn together to hide their nakedness. Odd how they hid their nakedness with fig leaves. Adam and Eve clothed themselves with fig leaves. Later Hashem clothed Adam and Eve in skins sending them out of the garden.
I LOVE YOU RABBI!
Rabbi sir if this is true, why then did Yahweh stop Adam and eve from reaching out to take from the tree of life and why did they even attempt to do that when they have agreed to God's will??
And also why did God place angels and a flaming sword to block them from entering back into the garden?
Perfet explanation Rabbi.thank you.
So if it was all good
Why did he curse the snake
The snake represents the evil inclination of our flesh, the desire to devour pleasure at any cost. The godly soul only wants to give pleasure and contentment to our Creator.
Don't take the Torah literally. It's all stories with underlying messages
@@patriciaribaric3409pleasure but not sex?
Thank you for sharing that you are very knowledgeable and the whole thing made way more sense than before.
The point is sowing your seed in the fertile soil, like arrangements of Adam & Eve in near to the tree of knowledge so to add on to pounder on knowledge. Like ice cream shop near to school & college. I am greatful to God for he raised me to enjoy his creation. Feel surprised that i too have added my second to contribute God so is my generous donor is our God.
Thanks!
So much knowledge in this small story. Thank you
Oh Rabbi thank you for enabling us to see how this can be understood. My guidance has been that this is indeed the age when enough souls have reached that high enough level to make their way back to this garden. This because we needed the physicality to help us become Co creators in Gods image. Love and Blessings to you. ❤️🙏
What a wonderful telling of this🥰
So the Serpent was the good guy! What could possibly go wrong?
I thank you for your stories. I love the translation of them all. ❤
U r cute
Rabbi always has something from the other perspective. Thanks
he was there by himselve
the arrogant snake😕
Thoughts and prayers 🙏 😇
WHERE did you get all this " information " from?!
he was there,i guess ,this arrogant 🤔...🤐
Thoughts and prayers from germany 🙏 😇
Probably from the tanya
Very compelling, Rabbi
Miss you here in Brazil.
I love this.
An hour later Adam and Eve procreated. God made us with free will. With free will comes consequences. Early procreation to ease the pains of childhoods leads to quarrels later on, in a couples relationship. The solution for humanity is marry and procreate in the right time. Heal first the childhood pains and traumas and gather resources for simple living. Being aware of the simple need of the body for survival, humans should seek higher intellect of the nature of the universe to connect to higher dimensions and spaces. Humans should seek higher intellect that make him live longer not for selfish reasons for surviving on earth but on other dimensions of the Universe.
fascinating, thank you
He has a truly creative mind
Really wonderful ...
I just want to say that might be one of if not most profound thing I’ve ever heard. Translation and meaning/intent is of the utmost import.
Incredible deep and true. Yet you have to expirece heaven so you understand this wisdom!!!
That's a cute little fan fiction story and all but I'm gonna need to see some support in the scriptures for about 80% of your claims.
Yeah he really is a Rabbi ... guess that's how he interprets
The only way a man listens to a woman is becos of wanting sex. And when we do we suffer and I have suffered in many ways I died. Im now trying to rebuild myself. I will never again be led by the nose but rather lead my woman. As for knowledge it never served me im running on faith in God now and feel the burden of my recovery lifted off my shoulders. I now only have one God the true God and not my woman or sex. And my wife knows it.
That makes no sense
Totally agree ! Like he said things which I’m likes is where does it say they were souls in heaven then sent down and the list goes on with where are you getting this information! And he missed out all the rest God said like ”And I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your offspring and hers; he will crush your head, and you will strike his heel.”“
Genesis 3:15
In my opinion: The numeration might resemble how a schizophrenics want to know dates & times. If all decended from ADAM & EVE than we shouldn't be that dis-similar being only Black people & black generations only get sickle cell anemia. And the sectionalised brown eyes of so many other zoological racial groups (non-White/non-Hispanic). We wouldn't be all the same according to science.
The Jewish people have seasons of time when it's appropriate to harvest crops. This story could speak to eating non-kosherly off season against the law.
Kabbalah has no place in this story either that would be more towards a linguistical gramation. When adding Kabbalah to the story, we have material boundaries that philosophy would struggle hard to cross over.
If you change history, you molest identity. Although there would be truth in numbers, there's also anomalies of limitations even in numbers.
Nobody holds knowledge of good/evil. We do what we do & the results determine the value of our deeds. Even good intentions pave the highway to Hell. Evil would do the better good according to the Jeremiahic philosophy.
Well the Nazis changed that with their murder camps so who are we supposed to believe? Do Jewish people not drive Mercedes-Benzes? Was that the value of profound evil? I would say absolutely not.
What about the Jeremiahic way of enoblement? For an expensive luxury sport car? No way.
We can only do our best because even righteous intentions culminate sin even with the best intentions. That's where mercy & forgiveness factor in. Not to withhold judgment, but to work out the bugs.
That's faith bro.
On a different note, the Maccabean uprise converted the Torah back to its historical Hebrew perhaps with more meaning justifying the retranslated serving the Maccabean nationalist movement before the 2st Roman uprise.
Genesis would be more of a theory until some archaeological evidence pops up. We can safely say the Exodus, a great flood & Jusus happened with certainty.
It would be highly improbable the Tower of Babel would have occurred towards the metaphysical diversity of toungs being they would have serious problems breathing at extreme altitude while laboring the construction. Also where's the tower at? In that area of the world, people build over top of old stuff. It should still be somewhere over there laying around/ buried. Some of the story seems plausible as other areas seem imaginative. Probably best not to put G-d to test regardless of the story.
So when was Genisis made? It seems to have a lot of Greek sauce in the man mix.
Beautiful
I am so very happy to hear this story of Adam and Eve, now it makes total sense to me. TY Rabbi for sharing your knowledge with us, so many have only heard this from the wrong point of view. I'm excited to hear more of the Torah from the right angle.
Amazingly Wonderful 💥 ✡️ ✨️ 🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱
Very interesting TY
Shalom and toda rabbi Friedman, Eloking of Israel, Kadosh Hashem love nature and paradise
Did God tell you the alternative story about Adam and Eve, Rabbi?
This is delusional garbage. Where do they get this trash?
Yayy Uncle
We get this, which is Old Tradition and from a teacher of the faith itself. Then we get the simplified renderings told with hellfire from the new traditions that seem to not see the forest for the trees.
That's the nicest way i could put it.
Shalom..
Terima kasih Rabbi, ini benar2..mencerahkan...no wonder 'mereka" mau menghancurkan kalian..Ajaran aslinya sangat berbeda dengan yang "baru"..
Wow 😊
💜
Quite interesting, and compelling, but i do think for a lot of people this explanation completely changes the story narrated by the rest of the book, and even more so for the people of the Christian faith. I am eager to hear how the story unfolds from this perspective, especially concerning the idea of sin.
I turned away a man I loved and believed in because he was a juggler!A painful decision!But my self respect would not tolerate emotional abuse or degradation!
Just who is the juggler???
Mental or a bot.
Shalom, This sounds like A&E sent to Earth to fix a Tree 🌳 And if they weren’t punished Why are humans still suffering from the effects of it.
It was about obedience

I agree with you. Every story in the Torah is on a profound level. Job is so amazing! I know this is a different subject than you are talking about, but I have a question about Job's wife. Her name isn't even mentioned. But in Job 2; 9-10..... yes of course it is appalling that she said to him "Do you still hold fast to your integrity? Curse God and die!" I know that is terrible to say! But I knew my husband 55 1/2 years til he passed away. We went through a lot of trials over the years. I remember many frustrations, yet we remained in love. Job's wife was extremely frustrated over the situation of her husband and felt completely incapable of helping him after all the horrible losses, and she finally blurted out that statement. Who really knows and can say "shame on her!" when I can only imagine the deep, depressing and heartfelt concern she had for him, and their relationship. When I read Job and saw how well off he was and how respected etc.... I could understand how his wife was so desperate, confused, at wit's end and sorely depressed just looking at him sitting in ashes and scraping his sores! But the next verse is enlightening further. Verse 10 Job says to her, "You speak as one of the foolish women speak. Shall we indeed accept good from GOD, and shall we not accept adversity?" In all this Job did not sin with his lips."............... however, his wife sinned with her lips!! But Job's response to her shows me that he did not see her as one of those foolish women, but a godly woman!.... who really lost her cool!.... and he reasoned with her about accepting the adversity with humility. As much as Job had suffered, I thought it was amazing that he could even have the energy to discuss her attitude. Sorry for getting off the subject here, but I would love to know what you think about this situation. Thank you for your patience and all you share with all of us. ❤❤❤
The 9th hour? By the 10th hour?? 🤔 what is this information coming from?
From the Tora I guess 🤷🏿♀️ not the scripture ( the scriptures are translated and edited)
God knows best
@@insidetheobamium9907that's not in the Torah at all ...it's not where in the bible. 🤷🏽♂️
@@crappiesniper Never read the the Tora forgive my arrogance : Is it in the emerald tablets 🤷🏿♀️ Could be a well kept secret between the knowers 🤔🤦🏿♀️
There are those people that know of things that others do not know 🤷🏿♀️
How hungry would they have been by the 10th hour anyway 🤷🏿♀️ on a diet of fruits 🥭 🍐 🍊 ? they had to leave that garden for reasons best known to them and their God; if it happened in the 10th it did maybe it was 5 seconds before the 10th hour 😳
Goodmorning i am going to look for a coffee ☕🍪🎈
Directly from the oral / written source from - G-D himself + the Tora is eternal 💙🤍
@richierich440007 it's not in the Torah at all... I'm just curious as to where would one get information like that from.... if you are saying the Torah please tell me where to read that at
What if Adam and Eve existed only as souls in the garden of eden where All things were also made of light except for the tree of knowledge? All the other trees would produce divine fruit (beyond physical senses). However the physical apple from the tree of knowledge once eaten, awakened them to earthly/physical senses. So it was "Taste" that aroused their curiousity and they were bound to awaken other desires as well. This was inevitable and a game created by God. Why would God place the tree of knowledge in garden of Eden in the first place? Adam and Eve were new souls without experience and bound to eat the Apple eventually.
The answer is that Adam and Eve were made in the image of God and of the same essence: Children of God. But they were void of Wisdom. They had as much potential to do good as doing evil. It was not their destiny to be in garden of Eden for eternity. Their/our destiny is to be with God. What would hold them/us back is the potential to do bad and cause suffering. There is no suffering where God is. Therefore, Adam and Eve and their children needed experience to gain wisdom that would prevent them from causing suffering. They were sent to earth in to the physical body to gain that wisdom and ascend to be with God. This body and world is a simulation made by God and once we're Godly, we are awakened from it and take our rightful place beside God.
WOW!!!
Ive seen this video b4 many moons ago. Thank you ❤
Love
Where does this extra knowledge come from? Surely if The Creator God wanted us to know more He would have told His servant Moses to record it in the Torah. If you have itching ears and satan is ready to oblige with His lies, Like when he said to Eve" Gen 3:5 For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.... Did God tell her Adam that? No. Satan tells his servants to tell people things that God did not give permission to say... But knowledge puffs up, and plays its part of the sin of pride. All who pay heed, to this added info other than what is written, will be like Eve, you will be deceived putting yourself in danger of eternal death, and vulnerable to accepting more satan inspired lies. .....Jer_27:15 For I have not sent them," says the LORD, "yet they prophesy a lie in My name, that I may drive you out, and that you may perish, you and the prophets who prophesy to you."
It's unfortunate that he failed to mention that Adam harkened unto the voice of his wife and did eat from the wrong tree. Somehow, she convinced him with her words after she ate.
Well done sir, thats awesome, in Hinduism we refer to the same in the principle of yoga kundalini is the serpent and the fig tree is called kalpa vriksha the wish fulfilling tree repres ting the world adam and eve are brahma and maya and of course the world is born out of desire experience the unmanifest joy through the visible form
I had arrived at the same understanding of the garden episode via studying tbe Kabbalah. It is also worth mentioning although it might seem strange to those who are used to a linear sense of time, thst tbe entire drama of tbe garden of Eden takes place on day six, and that the exile, or descent, is a fall 'deeper' into day six. The seventh day is, of course, inaccessible to man. The tree of KNOWLEDGE of good and evil, this is man trapped between pairs of opposites and this binary 'push and pull' is a property of the moon, and is also a quality of Day Six. So the fall is not only a fall into a heavier physical state of mortality under tbe weight of temporal law, but is also a fall deeper into TIME, like a self devouring cycle. It is THIS that the Divine prescence is destined to unravel and atone with the ALL..
Just thought I would throw that in, because I think many people are baffled by the seven days because of the assumption that they denote a linear span of time, whereas they are more like distinct realms of action.
Do not consume....eat is consuming which is not the same as eating food
Yin and Yang,we all contain these dark and light energies, just don't be consumed by them
The Adam and Eve and tree thing is more symbolic representation, with the Sephardic tree
A tree is also three things as representative of the root, opening up the trunk to a passage and the end result which is leaves (knowledge) and fruit which comes from the entirety
The richness of the theological invention is impressing. No wonder, fantasy novels always go back to this source.
If eating the forbidden fruit wasnt sin, then why did they need to sacrifice a lamb? But these creative kabbalists probably have a story for that as well
Rabi I love this! As a devout Catholic these teachings are phenomenal! Shalom 🙏🏻❤️🔥
Hi Rabbi 2
Good video Adam and Eve have always been seen as bad but they have some type of Divine mission from God
It doesn’t say that they were issued a soul, it says that man became a living soul (Genesis 2:7).
How do we get to the 9th and 10th hour? It interesting!
...just like the story of Pandora's box.
Eve was told not to eat from the tree of knowledge of good and evil.
Pandora was told not to open the box.
What happened as a result in both instances?
Downfall.
Patterns throughout history.
Dwell with your wife's understanding ❤
Thank you, Rabbi
If it was not a sin, but rather a step down for the sake of completion of this world then why did G-d punish the snake?
The cause of evil and sin began with the advent of the five dominant vices infiltrating the soul. Ego, Lust, Attachment, Anger and Greed. These are subtle and invisible, so the only way we can describe them is by metaphor. Consider these vices the influence which enables us to commit sinful acts, similar to a drunk driver under the influence of alcohol. In terms of cause and effect - the cause is vice, the effect is sin. Because vices are intangible, they can’t be measured or quantified. Over the ages, religious teachings placed a tangible stamp on the vices, depicting them as the Devil, Satan, Ravan, fallen Angels, a Serpent, Demons and various other incarnations. However, in reality, they are impurities which influence the soul. When we recognise and accept our impurities, we begin to take the first steps of courage towards reforming our character. The Book of Genesis uses metaphor in depicting Adam and Eve, the first human couple committing the first act of sin, known as original sin. However, it was their shift in consciousness which led to their fall. The first mistake humans made was to identify themselves as male and female, a body, rather than the soul that occupies the body. The primary vice that led to their eviction from the garden was ego, false knowledge of the self or self-illusion. Vices are born through the consciousness of the body, the illusion of the self.
God has a watch.
Newborns have the entire knowledge of the universe. Most of us are unfortunately unable to understand it.
OK, but what about the parts where they say cherub with flaming swords, which turn every way to keep the way of the tree of life away from them?
The Eleusinian ritual.
How didn't god NOT know Adam ate the fruit ??? "Did you eat from the tree i commanded you not too ?" 😂 Didn't god KNOW they would do this beforehand???
What kind pen did god use when writing the Torah, one wonders. Parker, Schaefer, Rotring?
Do you assume wearing a black robe allows you to make up stories? God created the world for his pleasure (Isaiah 46:10), to be inhabited (Isaiah 45:18). You say there was a man and a woman in heaven when God made the Earth, what proof have you? God himself says there were a whole host of 'sons of God' watching him create the earth (Job 38:7), but there is no mention of the 'daughters of God' anywhere in the Old Testament. The bible tells an inspiring story on its own, you do not need to make up your own stories to puff up your importance.
God never asked the Hebrews to make the world holy, He asked them to become holy themselves because He, their God, is holy (Leviticus 11:45). To say God created a world that needed repair is blasphemy, you should be ashamed.
I always thought if a woman was created to help the man, she was helping by suggesting to him by getting to the knowledge, to be like God.
Well not Always* but over the past 4 years that must have been the goal.
❤the way you explain your insights.
Definitely interesting. Where did this get passed down from?
Taking metaphor literally will always be confusing
