Many people who didn't grow up studying Jewish texts probably don't realize this, but 99.9% of what R Singer teaches is simply an excellent and faithful translation and summary of commentaries from the Midrash to kabbalistic texts, etc. It's not like he's inventing this and teaching his own personal ideas. I think it's important for people to know that even though he doesn't always mention each source, his teachings are inline with all traditional texts and all Orthodox rabbis would agree on the explanations he is giving. Listening to him is like cross-referencing hundreds of texts without having to learn your entire life. Since I grew up reading the original texts, and still do every day, I can guarantee anyone who is unable to do that alone is extremely lucky to have a rabbi like R Singer to explain it in such an excellent and clear way. Yasher koach, R Singer! 🙏💙🙌🔯🙏
This is very true. BUT...he also took a LONG time learning the xian bible, so that he can juxtapose, verse for verse...the Tenach against their bible to show how they have mistranslated in order to make their religion seem plausible. But it's all a bunch of LIES!
This is a really good point. I grew up reading the texts also, though I haven't in the last 20 years, what you are saying is 100% correct. I think a lot of fundamentalist Christians treat Singer like he's some whacko. Perhaps it's because our religions are so different in terms of structure (we don't have a central authority or a dioses to shuffle preachers in and out). I'm fairly sure Rabbis might disagree on very minor points (that's kinda what yeshiva life is...)
Rabbi, I love this answer from G.OD, It is so natural to answer this way because HE IS and that is it. Love this answer, from a Christian, enjoy your talks too.
I think I watched most of the videos of Dear Rabbi Tovia Singer for four years. According to my humble opinion, this is his best show! He unites very important concepts together: name, shabbat, the will behind creation, free will..
@Abraham Mani O mankind, the Messenger has come to you with the truth from your Lord, so believe; it is better for you. But if you disbelieve - then indeed, to Allāh belongs whatever is in the heavens and earth. And ever is Allāh Knowing and Wise. O People of the Scripture, do not commit excess in your religion or say about Allāh except the truth. The Messiah, Jesus the son of Mary, was but a messenger of Allāh and His word which He directed to Mary and a soul [created at a command] from Him. So believe in Allāh and His messengers. And do not say, "Three"; desist - it is better for you. Indeed, Allāh is but one God. Exalted is He above having a son. To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth. And sufficient is Allāh as Disposer of affairs.
@@7yearsago440 I believe you have been deceived. There are no literature of the Muslims before the Quean. You obviously, obviously not been able to translate the Hebrew correctly or you would not believe that the son of Mary was the Messiah. I wonder what Messiah means to you? You will also understand from Scripture that Jesus is the decendent of David. How?
I like you Mr Tovia Singer because you are a Peacemaker i wish one Day their wil be no Problems between Jews and Arabs like the Wishes of Father Abraham
I just absolutely adore this rabbi , every time I watch your videos rabbi , something in my heart tells me that you are so genuine and explain scripture so beautifully and so honestly and I will definitely be passing your videos onto my contacts ❤️ ♥️
i'm an Arab from kuwait, my elder brother is still taking ibri language lessons (Hebrew), i Really love hebrew just as i love Arabic, it's probably the easiest language to learn for me since i'm an arab, i'm really considering to take hebrew classes once i finish my summer semester!
@@dyz39 that's actually not true. Ishmael is not the father of all Arabs only the Adnanites. So the children of Qahtan and their ancestors have spoken ancient Arabic during the times of Abraham and possibly even before.
Thank you so much Dear Rabbi Tovia! May HaShem keep you and Bless you always! These messages are a wonderful help to those of us from the nations who have also, by HaShems great mercy, found Him and are leaving the worthlessness we inherited.
God in the Koran says :When he saw a fire and said to his family, "Stay here; indeed, I have perceived a fire; perhaps I can bring you a torch or find at the fire some guidance."And when he came to it, he was called, "O Moses,Indeed, I am your Lord, so remove your sandals. Indeed, you are in the sacred valley of Tuwa.And I have chosen you, so listen to what is revealed [to you]Indeed, I am Allah . There is no deity except Me, so worship Me and establish prayer for My remembrance..Indeed, the Hour is coming - I almost conceal it - so that every soul may be recompensed according to that for which it strives.
@Abraham Mani if you mean a cept Jessus as God then sir you are deluded. I was a Christian for most of my life until I went to the Mediterranean to live in a Roman catholic country then I found the truth in the God of Israel. Jesus as God and the trinity, Easter they are all pagan worship even the birth date of Jesus is a pagan celebration
Blessed be our Creator for using His servant rabbi tovia singer to teach us the true meaning of the hebrew scriptures in its writing. Much appreciated rabbi singer for teaching us every word written in the hebrew language and their meanings. I love HASHEM who is always with us.
The more I hear And watch Rabbi Tovia explaining the Torah view on God and his prophets and messengers the more I feel peace in my heart that Allah (SWT) is the only one, and the only one worth worshiping. This is confirmation that Judaism and Islam complete each other and the Scripture in both religions from one source only. God Almighty a Muslim is not Identified by gender or color or ethnicity that's why we Muslims believe Abraham Moses Jacob David Solomon Jesus and all the messengers and the prophets are true Muslims even Rabbi Tovia could be a better Muslim than I because Islam means believing and submitting to well of the God Almighty. Keep up the good work brother Rabbi Tovia I respect you and may Allah bless you
In my humble mind, I thank you for this fine and blessed speech. Thank you, I will now enjoy and absorb this coming Sabbath in a whole new way "now that's enough". Thomas, from Danmark.
I started honoring the Sabbath on the 7th day. I don't go anywhere, I don't buy or sell, I don't work, I just relax, watch videos, read the Word, learn & spend time with my animals here at home within nature. It feels different than a false SUNday circus and being told you have to go to church. That is a false religion. I hope you receive the same. Shalom.
Hebrews 11:6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that HE IS, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.
Todah for the clarification and explaination.Really enjoy hearing the Hebrew and getting an explanation of what was meant by what was told to Moshe at the burning bush.
I will be with you as I shall be with you. In short, beyond God there is nothing. Therefore, God is with you in Every way. As he is everything and beyond him there is nothing.
"Will be with you", is an example of the depth and beauty of Judaism~~ It introduces a DYNAMISM into the learning , allowing the WORLD TO COME and all its potentiality to have room to exist. One could even say, before the fact, " Will even be the God of errant/lost Christians !"
The G-d that gives you breath every day, the breath of life! He, blessed is He, our CREATOR, SAVIOR and REDEEMER! We live and exist because of HIM! BLESSED is HE!!!! Otherwise, we would be NOTHING, NONE EXISTENT. B"H
What is the real name of Hashim? And why would Jew say Hashim instead of Elohim? If you have the answer its fine otherwise don't let me know what you believe since Yahwa not mentioned in the Tora
@@nosar2178 He goes by many names. Ha'Shem means simply "the name" Also, it can be pronounced many ways. As many ways as there are people on earth to proclaim His glory. Anyway. witin the scriptures there are a few names given in Torah. Some decorated in their writing very beautiful characters. Anyway get a good study Bible I mean a really good one and it will have all that beautiful detail on the original text in there. Especailly the many names of Yah. For it occurs 7000 times in the OT
The Name being obscured is probably a good thing because it keeps many people out of trouble who would otherwise use it in terrible ways, knowing or unknowing.
Tovia Singer - I'm from Queens too, grew up there at the same time. Glad to see you teaching so much from the Scriptures of Truth. It's more rewarding to discover than gold.
I agree the NAME comes form 3 word's hayah hoveh yihyeh is was and will be the vowels to his holy NAME are hidden in those words but thats the awesome things of Torah so much secrets:) B"H
Jer 3:26 -27 How long shall this be in the heart of the *prophets who prophesy lies* even the prophets of the deceit of their own heart, who think to *cause my people to forget my name* by their dreams which they tell every man to his neighbor, *as their fathers forgot my name for Baal* (Baal means LORD / Adonai). Exo 6:2,3 Then God spoke to Moses, and said to him, “I am YHWH. And I appeared to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob as El Shaddai, *but I did not make myself known to them by my name YHWH*. Zec 13:9 I will bring the third part into the fire, and will refine them as silver is refined, and will test them like gold is tested. They will *call on my name*, and I will hear them.

As Rabbi Saad Ben Yousef Al-Fayoumi (d: 942 A.D) explained in his Tafsir of Torah: קאל לה אלאזלי אלד̇י לא יזול קאל כד̇א קל לבני אסראיל אלאזלי בעת̇ני אליכם قال له *الازلي الذي لا يزول* قال كذا قل لبني إسراءيل: *الازلي بعثني اليكم* He said to him: “The everlasting one who will never seize to exist” said that, Say to Israelites: “The Ever-Living One, has sent Me to you” Therefore, the word אהיה May have many meanings depending on the context it is used. The closest Arabic word I can think of is اياه (Solely Him) which is equivalent to هو (He/Him) meaning اياه كما اياه “He is as He was”, in other wards in Quranic language the closest connotation would be الحي القيوم - The Ever-Living, The Existing One, The Everlasting One, The Eternal One،
You are very right Rabbi about G-d. For an eternal G-d, He does things with perfect timing and it involves His creation whether people believe in Him or not.
Tovia, The Talmud says that Abraham trusted the God who said He had done "Enough" creating, and the Jews celebrate the Sabbath because they have done enough working for that week and just want to enjoy His Person. This is wonderful to me and leads to another question. God also said "Enough" on the 8th, 9th, 10th, 11th, 12th, and 13th day, before another Sabbath came; on those days He only did maintenance, but no creating (and He has been doing maintenance ever since, even on Sabbaths). The question is this: Did you know that true Christians keep the Sabbath seven days a week? Hebrews 4:9-10: "Consequently, there remains a Sabbath rest for the people of God. For the one who has entered His rest has himself also rested from his works, as God did from His." True Christians have rested from ALL our works; we don't have to struggle to survive like Jacob. We also say, "Enough," every day because God gives us enough. I agree that Israel survives through struggle because of God, so please do not forget that many Christians in England and the US are advocating for the Jews every day, which is also why there are so many missionaries in the land of Israel. My Bible, which includes the NT, generally agrees with what you said about the future with one minor variation. Many Jews, when they 1) see the Two Witnesses of Jesus (types of Moses and Elijah) rise from the dead in the streets of Jerusalem and 2) live through the great earthquake there, "will give glory to the God of heaven." This does not mean that they will glorify ONLY the One True God, but they will also glorify His Son, the One that Moses and Elijah's representatives preach. This Jewish acceptance of Jesus in Jerusalem causes heaven to announce that Jesus's kingdom on earth has begun. My friend, WE are waiting for YOU.
Shalom all :) Rabbi Tovia is genuinely right on many points but being imperfect, he just may be wrong on this one. The banning of utterring God's name isn't found in the Torah but in rabbinic tradition. Moshe asked Elohim for His Name and this was the commandment. *Exodus 3* 13 And Moses said to God, “Look, when I come to the people of Israel, and tell them, ‘The *God of your fathers has sent me to you;’ and they ask me, ‘What is his name?’ What should I tell them?”* 15 And God said moreover to Moses, *“You shall tell the people of Israel this, ‘YHWH, the God of your fathers,* the God of Abraham, i the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, has sent me to you.’ *This is my name forever, and this is my memorial to all generations.* 16 Go, and gather the elders of the children of j Israel together, and *tell them, ‘YHWH, the God of your fathers,* the God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Jacob, has appeared to me, saying, “I have surely visited you, and seen that which is done to you in Egypt; The following verse confirms. *Exodus 6* 2 Then God spoke to Moses, and said to him, *“I am YHWH.* 3 And I appeared to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob as El Shaddai, *but I did not make myself known to them by my name YHWH.* The fact that so many prophets of YHWH had the compound signature name of God (YAH) proves that His name is to be uttered, remembered and exalted. There were false prophets who went around making God's chosen forget His name and this was met with strong rebuke. *YermiYAH 23* 26 How long shall this be in the heart of the *prophets who prophesy lies,* even the prophets of the deceit of their own heart, 27 who think *to cause my people to forget my name* by their dreams which they tell every man to his neighbor, as their fathers *forgot my name for Baal (LORD/Adonai).* Eli-YAH (My God Is YAH) had to emerge to correct those who called upon BAAL/LORD/Adonai instead of His name. *1 Kings 18* 24 You call on the name of your god (BAAL), and I will *call on the name of YHWH*, and the god who answers by fire, he is God.” All the people answered, “It is well said.” 36 It happened at the time of the offering up of the offering, that Elijah the prophet came near, and *said, “YHWH,* the God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Israel, let it be known this day that you are God in Israel, and that I am your servant, and that I have done all these things at your word. 38 Hear me, YHWH, hear me, that this *people may know that you, YHWH, are God,* and that you have turned their heart back again.” 38 Then the fire of YHWH fell, and consumed the burnt offering, and the wood, and the stones, and the dust, and licked up the water that was in the trench. 39 And when all the people saw it, they fell facedown *and said, “YHWH, he is God. YHWH, he is God.”* The call to love YHWH and to love His name includes gentile proselytes. *Yesha-YAHU 56* Also the foreigners who join themselves to YHWH, to minister to him, and to *love the name of YHWH,* to be his servants, everyone who keeps the Sabbath from profaning it, and holds fast my covenant; *Deut 6* 4 *Shema Yisrael, YHWH eloheinu,* YHWH echad. 5 And you shall *love YHWH your God* with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your might.
I am ignorant about Hebrew language, I am always facing problem on how we get YHWH from the words - Ehyeh Asher Ehyeh? Everyone who did research on the true name of our heavenly father based their findings on YHWH. My problem is - How do we get YHWH from 'Ehyeh Asher Ehyeh? Can anyone help me, please?
Quran 17:110 Say, "Call upon Allah or call upon the Most Merciful. Whichever [name] you call - to Him belong the best names." And do not recite [too] loudly in your prayer or [too] quietly but seek between that an [intermediate] way.
@@Cking64 I do respect your believe and faith. I am not trying to argue on your belief. However, since all the three religions claimed to be a part of Abrahamic religion just try to understand the concept of God according to the Jews and Muslim. May God bless you.

I too was once an unbeliever till God spoke to me and showed Jesus before my eyes .my friend the bible speaks the truth it is not a lie.
@@wowmyworldy74 exactly. People can worship many gods. Even the devil is called the god of this world. I like to be specific in naming my God who i worship. The Lord Jesus christ who came down from heaven. Died on a cross for all mankind. One day jews and Muslims will stand before God and be judged to see what they did for christ.
The idea that Elohim “hides behind His creation” (23 minute mark) is dangerously close to the justification of worshipping creation rather than the Creator. On the other hand, the concepts mentioned are similar to Paul’s argument in Romans 1:19-20, that the visible creation reveals the invisible, including, the invisible G_dhead.
Hi.. I've been listening to your videos for a little while now. I am undone. I've been a Christian my whole life. The things that bothered me? I just dismissed. I figured the answer would show up eventually. Well, it did. There is a scripture in Matthew that pretty much sums it up. You don't hear this in church much, but it is there. Matthew 19:17. It is Jesus speaking. He says, why call list thou me good? There is none good but one in that is God. I used to wonder about that. So I looked it up today.. that's not the whole of the verse. It goes on to say, if thou Wilt enter life, keep the Commandments. If I'm to call myself a Christian, I need to follow the Bible, and this is what it says. Jesus did not come to completely change God's word. He followed it.. and reprimanded those who did not. It's right there. Any three-year-old could understand this. Life equals Commandments.
ConstantCompanion Jesus is giving them something to think about by asking them that by calling him good you’re saying you accept me as God and Thomas duly accepted when he had seen the sign of Jonah completed.
Life equals commandments. Cool. Pity only one man could live the old testament commandments. Once he lived it he made it harsher. Luckily he sent his life back to the believer to live the new commandments.
No one can die for any ones sines according the the 5 Books of Moses but only throw repentance before the creator , that’s when you know the Christian theology is completely false with the introduction of pure pagan ideas by the people that miss interpret it And completely corrupted the Hebrew Scripture. Sorry to disappoint you but the Christian faith is a complete idolatry.
The name of a deity in Egyptian culture is said to holds the power over that deity. Moses being raised as a Egyptian would have believed that knowing the true name of a deity would give him divine power, thus Hashem responded with, "I will be that which I will [to] be" in other saying "You need only to know what I am, but not who I am". Even Jesus is not really a name, it is his job.
G-d is using this Rabbi to reach so many people. I know that the prophets supposedly don’t exist anymore, but Rabbi Singer is the closest thing we have to a living prophet.
What about Exodus 3v15?? 15 And God said moreover unto Moses, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, the Lord God (יהוה) of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, hath sent me unto you: THIS IS MY NAME FOREVER, and THIS IS MY MEMORIAL UNTO ALL GENERATIONS.
Thank you Rabbi. A beautiful explanation of the meaning of אל שדי. I was wondering how you arrived at the idea that HaShem ceased His creation in order to stop hiding. Where is the scriptual evidence for His hiding. Then I got it! האל שאמר די לעולמו, literally means "The Power that said 'Enough' to His World" , where the word עולם is the same word as Concealed!!!!! The Power that said 'Enough' to His 'Concealment'. Fantastic!!!
Okay now RABBI BLEW Ma mind. I’m a believer in yeshua , not as God but as a man . A man like me yet I listen to rabbi cos he’s a very biblically smart and I enjoy his teaching. But this teaching hear is the best so far
R Tovia you will probably be the Kohen Gadol when Machiach comes. You are just too amazing. You bring Korbanot ( mekatrev) to HaShem on a regular basis. If you see this message, please bless me to be a Gaon like you. I want to save Jewish and none Jewish people like you. May HaShem bless you and your entire family with all the blessings of the Torah. May you see only great and holy things from your children for ever.
it's funny when some Christian that I met told me that God official name is YHWH and it's different from Allah. while during studying this topic and read some Jewish books about it... it appeared that YHWH appeared in the Quran but in Arabic in the word "الصمد" "A-Samid" meaning the Eternal Refuge and it share the meaning of YHWH I shall be as I shall be meaning that God will be always with you in all of your crisis. in fact chapter 112 in the Quran when Jews comes to the prophet Mohammad peace be upon him asking about his view to God. the answer was … قل هو الله أحد 1 الله الصمد 2 qul whowa allahu Ahad 1 Allahu A-smid say God is one 1 God is Eternal Refuge. as the word one (Ahad ) reference to the Hebrew word Ehad in Deuteronomy 6:4 shema israel adonai eloheinu adonai echad hear o Israel the lord is our God the lord is one! and also the word YHWH Rabbi Saadia Goun transulated as the Eternal. the bottom line here. We Muslims worship the same God as Jews and Christians even if there some don't like to acknowledge this
Worship One God the Word Allah comes from 2 parts … Al meaning "The " and illah meaning god when you combine it , you will get the word Allah as short term for speaking the true God since the "Al" in Arabic can be use to speak about specific thing.. Prophet Mohammad true he is not invent new religion, because what he breach and teach is the same as all the previews prophet did before him.
We Jews know this and so should most Muslims. Arabic is a Semitic dialect. The G-d of israel is the G-d of Ishmael. The only absolute monotheism outside Judaism is Islam. That is fact.
Worship one God. true but you need to remember the Arab originally monotheist since they are the children Ishmael , it was decade later they got influence by Pagan and start worshipping false gods with the one true God meaning in Arabic they are Mushrik . the term shirk mean that you worship one true God and other false gods with him. So, what prophet Mohammad did was restore the faith how it should be. by removing the false gods. and let the Arabs go back monotheist and start worshipping one true God again. when we say in Arabic "لا إله إلا الله " La illaha illa Allah " meaning there is no gods (the false ones) but the God (the true God ) this definition of Allah can be find all over in the Quran. so what I am saying that the prophet just restore the faith and clean it from paganism.
where was ishmael born of disobedience? can you quote me the verse? But i can assure you Paul was disobedient when he told you Jesus died for your filthy dirty pagan sins! Repent and be a Unitarian at least! Allah will punish you for condemning and singleing out Ishmael pbuh like that!! Make the Sun rise from the West before you make such statements... if you cannot do that then go and jump into the sea!
No one is greater than ones self. We are all of a Holy Family so everyone is greater than perdition. Use your own name and cast perdition to the ground and stomp it
I will be with you by this redemption the same as the final redemption. The reason God changed after that by saying: "just tell them 'I will be' send me to you" because God didn't wanna scare them about the final exile.
You said that the people in slavery in Egypt wouldn't ask his name, but then you went on to explain how important a name is and also that when Jacob wrestled with the angel all night, he then asked his name. Your point that they wouldn't have asked his name doesn't make sense. Moses knew they would ask his name otherwise he wouldn't have asked.
Brilliant! Does anyone know where the idea of kel shakai as "finishing creation" comes from? That edge of hidden and revealed? The Kiddushas Levi describes it a little differently...
Here's the translation published on the Chabad website. I like it. 14God said to Moses, "Ehyeh asher ehyeh (I will be what I will be)," and He said, "So shall you say to the children of Israel, 'Ehyeh (I will be) has sent me to you.'" Also, a question. Couldn't it be translated in the present tense in English? And that would explain what Christian Bibles did there? Cos it's kind of like the verb 'to be'?
Exo 3:12 read "I will be" (H1961 haya),"with you" (H5973) Exo 3:14 read "I will be" (H1961 haya), "that" or "as" (H834) So, Haya = "I will be" not "I will be with you" Can clarify ?
We'll the name of HaShem in the torah. we don't say it is really much deeper than that if you're asking about the 4 letter name, which is more like a compression of 3 words "hayah" "hoveh" "ve,yiheyeh" was, is, and will be meaning God is forever be well.
Jer 3:26 -27 How long shall this be in the heart of the *prophets who prophesy lies* even the prophets of the deceit of their own heart, who think to *cause my people to forget my name* by their dreams which they tell every man to his neighbor, *as their fathers forgot my name for Baal* (Baal means LORD / Adonai). Exo 6:2,3 Then God spoke to Moses, and said to him, “I am YHWH. And I appeared to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob as El Shaddai, *but I did not make myself known to them by my name YHWH*. Zec 13:9 I will bring the third part into the fire, and will refine them as silver is refined, and will test them like gold is tested. They will *call on my name*, and I will hear them. I will say, ‘It is my people;’ and they will say, *YHWH is my God.*
the question for his name is because they wanted know if it was ammon or baal or other gods of pagans or what attributes is he since the name describes the attribute so God here says that he is what he is and noone can understand him, if he said it was adonai they would say is it Aten ? if he said it was elohm(God) they will say which elohim, if he said Yahu they will say is it the assyrian yahu ? so Here he said Im that Im meaning he is the God of all but not in their description but rather in that He is what he is and cannot be fully understood
I love watching Rabbi Tovia Tanakh teachings. My opinion based on my research and Hebrew studies regarding the sacred name of the Almighty is: Nobody knows the right pronunciation of the sacred name. After the Babylonian exile, pronouncing the sacred name became a superstition , namely whoever profane was sentenced to death in Moses times and after. So the real pronunciation of the name of the Almighty in time got lost. That is why Rabbinical authority included "title" names like " El Shaddai" and many others to the Almighty instead of saying his name. The Rabbinical authority included the Tetragrammaton or the four Hebrew consonants letters as the "speculated" Hebrew sacred name guideline which in later time , they included different vowels systems to "insert" a pronunciation of the name. However, the Tetragrammaton is not the name of the Almighty either. Needless to say, adding speculated vowels to those four Hebrew consonants.The bottom line is that nobody knows the name of the Almighty now but, The sacred name would be given when the Messiah comes, and all nations will know his true name. On a side note: The Tetragrammaton letters are also found in Phoenician letters as their Yahweh goddess which also is represented in the Tetragrammaton. Why? The Canaanite people worshiped a goddess called "Je ho vah " or The name YHWH, consisting of the sequence of consonants Yod, Heh, Waw, and Heh with the Tetragrammatton. So that means, we can't use a pagan name to substitute it with the sacred name of the Elohim of Abraham. "Pay strict attention to everything I have said to you. You must not invoke the names of other gods; they must not be heard on your lips." Exodus 23:13 Exodus 20:7 We have to be really careful which we use to call the Elohim Almighty. There are consequences just using a pagan name or speculated name
Rabbi, the question was asked from a Muslim. Exodus 3:12 reads Revelation 3:12 because of [ *12:40] Thus Exodus 6:3 must go together with [*11:84] in order to understand that *62:8 is of the name of Moses, for then Manoah asked the same question Judges 13:17 and the answer is *59:24!
What the rabbi forgot to say its a key point The convenant doesnt cover the unjustice people It wasnt unconditional The land wasnt given unconditinaly So many left to explain dear rabbi
Salamun well saith, only issue is to not associate and be mislead with the word He nor Him just because English is used is teaching. Pe Be in thy heart.
It seems very likely that each of the twelve tribes had different names for God, just as they doubtless had different sabbaths, and other customs. It was Moses' mission to unite them as one people.

@@stoopidpants What's the old saying about our people, "two Jews, three opinions?"
Thank you. I didn't know that but I guessed he'd get into trouble if he was teaching unorthodox ideas.
I think I watched most of the videos of Dear Rabbi Tovia Singer for four years. According to my humble opinion, this is his best show! He unites very important concepts together: name, shabbat, the will behind creation, free will..
@Abraham Mani O mankind, the Messenger has come to you with the truth from your Lord, so believe; it is better for you. But if you disbelieve - then indeed, to Allāh belongs whatever is in the heavens and earth. And ever is Allāh Knowing and Wise.
O People of the Scripture, do not commit excess in your religion or say about Allāh except the truth. The Messiah, Jesus the son of Mary, was but a messenger of Allāh and His word which He directed to Mary and a soul [created at a command] from Him. So believe in Allāh and His messengers. And do not say, "Three"; desist - it is better for you. Indeed, Allāh is but one God. Exalted is He above having a son. To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth. And sufficient is Allāh as Disposer of affairs.
@@7yearsago440 I believe you have been deceived. There are no literature of the Muslims before the Quean. You obviously, obviously not been able to translate the Hebrew correctly or you would not believe that the son of Mary was the Messiah. I wonder what Messiah means to you? You will also understand from Scripture that Jesus is the decendent of David. How?
@Abraham Mani I have the distinct impression that you either weren't listening, didn't understand or are simply obtuse.

I like you Mr Tovia Singer because you are a Peacemaker i wish one Day their wil be no Problems between Jews and Arabs like the Wishes of Father Abraham
I just absolutely adore this rabbi , every time I watch your videos rabbi , something in my heart tells me that you are so genuine and explain scripture so beautifully and so honestly and I will definitely be passing your videos onto my contacts ❤️ ♥️
G-D Bless you Rabbi Singer, this has been a subject I have wondered about, now it is clearer to me.
i'm an Arab from kuwait, my elder brother is still taking ibri language lessons (Hebrew), i Really love hebrew just as i love Arabic, it's probably the easiest language to learn for me since i'm an arab, i'm really considering to take hebrew classes once i finish my summer semester!

God in the Koran says :When he saw a fire and said to his family, "Stay here; indeed, I have perceived a fire; perhaps I can bring you a torch or find at the fire some guidance."And when he came to it, he was called, "O Moses,Indeed, I am your Lord, so remove your sandals.

The more I hear And watch Rabbi Tovia explaining the Torah view on God and his prophets and messengers the more I feel peace in my heart that Allah (SWT) is the only one, and the only one worth worshiping. This is confirmation that Judaism and Islam complete each other and the Scripture in both religions from one source only. God Almighty a Muslim is not Identified by gender or color or ethnicity that's why we Muslims believe Abraham Moses Jacob David Solomon Jesus and all the messengers and the prophets are true Muslims even Rabbi Tovia could be a better Muslim than I because Islam means believing and submitting to well of the God Almighty. Keep up the good work brother Rabbi Tovia I respect you and may Allah bless you
Wonderfull! Thank you so very much for helping us out!
Ooops!Second! Rabbi is always an inspiration. Always!
What? "Second"???
In my humble mind, I thank you for this fine and blessed speech. Thank you, I will now enjoy and absorb this coming Sabbath in a whole new way "now that's enough".
Thomas, from Danmark.
I started honoring the Sabbath on the 7th day. I don't go anywhere, I don't buy or sell, I don't work, I just relax, watch videos, read the Word, learn & spend time with my animals here at home within nature. It feels different than a false SUNday circus and being told you have to go to church. That is a false religion.
I hope you receive the same. Shalom.
With teachers like this, there is no excuse. Thank you.

As Rabbi Saad Ben Yousef Al-Fayoumi (d: 942 A.D) explained in his Tafsir of Torah:
קאל לה אלאזלי אלד̇י לא יזול קאל כד̇א קל לבני אסראיל אלאזלי בעת̇ני אליכם
قال له *الازلي الذي لا يزول* قال كذا قل لبني إسراءيل: *الازلي بعثني اليكم*
He said to him: “The everlasting one who will never seize to exist” said that, Say to Israelites: “The Ever-Living One, has sent Me to you”
Therefore, the word אהיה May have many meanings depending on the context it is used. The closest Arabic word I can think of is اياه (Solely Him) which is equivalent to هو (He/Him) meaning اياه كما اياه “He is as He was”, in other wards in Quranic language the closest connotation would be الحي القيوم - The Ever-Living, The Existing One, The Everlasting One, The Eternal One،
This is the best video yet.
ברוך השם יהוה אלהים צבאות
He is the First and the Last, and the Outer and the Inner; and He knows all things. Quran 57:3

Incredible. Thank you for sharing
You are very right Rabbi about G-d. For an eternal G-d, He does things with perfect timing and it involves His creation whether people believe in Him or not.
Tovia, The Talmud says that Abraham trusted the God who said He had done "Enough" creating, and the Jews celebrate the Sabbath because they have done enough working for that week and just want to enjoy His Person. This is wonderful to me and leads to another question. God also said "Enough" on the 8th, 9th, 10th, 11th, 12th, and 13th day, before another Sabbath came; on those days He only did maintenance, but no creating (and He has been doing maintenance ever since, even on Sabbaths). The question is this: Did you know that true Christians keep the Sabbath seven days a week? Hebrews 4:9-10: "Consequently, there remains a Sabbath rest for the people of God. For the one who has entered His rest has himself also rested from his works, as God did from His." True Christians have rested from ALL our works; we don't have to struggle to survive like Jacob. We also say, "Enough," every day because God gives us enough. I agree that Israel survives through struggle because of God, so please do not forget that many Christians in England and the US are advocating for the Jews every day, which is also why there are so many missionaries in the land of Israel. My Bible, which includes the NT, generally agrees with what you said about the future with one minor variation. Many Jews, when they 1) see the Two Witnesses of Jesus (types of Moses and Elijah) rise from the dead in the streets of Jerusalem and 2) live through the great earthquake there, "will give glory to the God of heaven." This does not mean that they will glorify ONLY the One True God, but they will also glorify His Son, the One that Moses and Elijah's representatives preach. This Jewish acceptance of Jesus in Jerusalem causes heaven to announce that Jesus's kingdom on earth has begun. My friend, WE are waiting for YOU.
Wow. Exactly what I was looking for
In addition to another comment, this was very educational. Thank you. 😊
Shalom all :)
Rabbi Tovia is genuinely right on many points but being imperfect, he just may be wrong on this one. The banning of utterring God's name isn't found in the Torah but in rabbinic tradition.
Moshe asked Elohim for His Name and this was the commandment.
*Exodus 3*
13 And Moses said to God, “Look, when I come to the people of Israel, and tell them, ‘The *God of your fathers has sent me to you;’ and they ask me, ‘What is his name?’ What should I tell them?”*
15 And God said moreover to Moses, *“You shall tell the people of Israel this, ‘YHWH, the God of your fathers,* the God of Abraham, i the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, has sent me to you.’ *This is my name forever, and this is my memorial to all generations.*
16 Go, and gather the elders of the children of j Israel together, and *tell them, ‘YHWH, the God of your fathers,* the God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Jacob, has appeared to me, saying, “I have surely visited you, and seen that which is done to you in Egypt;
The following verse confirms.
*Exodus 6*
2 Then God spoke to Moses, and said to him, *“I am YHWH.*
3 And I appeared to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob as El Shaddai, *but I did not make myself known to them by my name YHWH.*
The fact that so many prophets of YHWH had the compound signature name of God (YAH) proves that His name is to be uttered, remembered and exalted.
There were false prophets who went around making God's chosen forget His name and this was met with strong rebuke.
*YermiYAH 23*
26 How long shall this be in the heart of the *prophets who prophesy lies,* even the prophets of the deceit of their own heart,
27 who think *to cause my people to forget my name* by their dreams which they tell every man to his neighbor, as their fathers *forgot my name for Baal (LORD/Adonai).*
Eli-YAH (My God Is YAH) had to emerge to correct those who called upon BAAL/LORD/Adonai instead of His name.
*1 Kings 18*
24 You call on the name of your god (BAAL), and I will *call on the name of YHWH*, and the god who answers by fire, he is God.” All the people answered, “It is well said.”
36 It happened at the time of the offering up of the offering, that Elijah the prophet came near, and *said, “YHWH,* the God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Israel, let it be known this day that you are God in Israel, and that I am your servant, and that I have done all these things at your word.
38 Hear me, YHWH, hear me, that this *people may know that you, YHWH, are God,* and that you have turned their heart back again.”
38 Then the fire of YHWH fell, and consumed the burnt offering, and the wood, and the stones, and the dust, and licked up the water that was in the trench.
39 And when all the people saw it, they fell facedown *and said, “YHWH, he is God. YHWH, he is God.”*
The call to love YHWH and to love His name includes gentile proselytes.
*Yesha-YAHU 56*
Also the foreigners who join themselves to YHWH, to minister to him, and to *love the name of YHWH,* to be his servants, everyone who keeps the Sabbath from profaning it, and holds fast my covenant;
*Deut 6*
4 *Shema Yisrael, YHWH eloheinu,* YHWH echad.
5 And you shall *love YHWH your God* with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your might.
I am ignorant about Hebrew language, I am always facing problem on how we get YHWH from the words - Ehyeh Asher Ehyeh?

Excellant
The idea that Elohim “hides behind His creation” (23 minute mark) is dangerously close to the justification of worshipping creation rather than the Creator.
On the other hand, the concepts mentioned are similar to Paul’s argument in Romans 1:19-20, that the visible creation reveals the invisible, including, the invisible G_dhead.
Besides the answer, the build-up is amazing xd
Hi.. I've been listening to your videos for a little while now. I am undone. I've been a Christian my whole life. The things that bothered me? I just dismissed. I figured the answer would show up eventually. Well, it did. There is a scripture in Matthew that pretty much sums it up. You don't hear this in church much, but it is there. Matthew 19:17. It is Jesus speaking. He says, why call list thou me good? There is none good but one in that is God. I used to wonder about that. So I looked it up today.. that's not the whole of the verse. It goes on to say, if thou Wilt enter life, keep the Commandments.
If I'm to call myself a Christian, I need to follow the Bible, and this is what it says. Jesus did not come to completely change God's word. He followed it.. and reprimanded those who did not. It's right there. Any three-year-old could understand this. Life equals Commandments.
ConstantCompanion Jesus is giving them something to think about by asking them that by calling him good you’re saying you accept me as God and Thomas duly accepted when he had seen the sign of Jonah completed.
Life equals commandments. Cool.
Pity only one man could live the old testament commandments. Once he lived it he made it harsher.
Luckily he sent his life back to the believer to live the new commandments.
No one can die for any ones sines according the the 5 Books of Moses but only throw repentance before the creator , that’s when you know the Christian theology is completely false with the introduction of pure pagan ideas by the people that miss interpret it And completely corrupted the Hebrew Scripture. Sorry to disappoint you but the Christian faith is a complete idolatry.
The name of a deity in Egyptian culture is said to holds the power over that deity. Moses being raised as a Egyptian would have believed that knowing the true name of a deity would give him divine power, thus Hashem responded with, "I will be that which I will [to] be" in other saying "You need only to know what I am, but not who I am". Even Jesus is not really a name, it is his job.
Clueless 😁😁
G-d is using this Rabbi to reach so many people. I know that the prophets supposedly don’t exist anymore, but Rabbi Singer is the closest thing we have to a living prophet.

Those who don’t know Hebrew which is the original language of the Bible will always get it wrong. Simple as that.
What about Exodus 3v15??
15 And God said moreover unto Moses, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, the Lord God (יהוה) of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, hath sent me unto you: THIS IS MY NAME FOREVER, and THIS IS MY MEMORIAL UNTO ALL GENERATIONS.
15 וַיֹּאמֶר אֱלֹהִים אֶל מֹשֶׁה כֹּה תֹּאמֶר אֶל בְּנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל, ה' אה'יה אֱלֹהֵי אֲבוֹתֵיכֶם אֱלֹהֵי אַבְרָהָם אֱלֹהֵי יִצְחָק וְאֶת אֱלֹהֵי יַעֲקֹב שָׁלַחְנִי אֵלֶיךָ. זה השם שלי לנצח, וזהו הזיכרון שלי לכל הדורות.
Thank you
He said tell them I AM had sent me unto you. A Hayah
A very good point. If “ I am that\ who I am” is the name of God then why it was not declared as a co-name like Yahuvah.
Thank you Rabbi. A beautiful explanation of the meaning of אל שדי. I was wondering how you arrived at the idea that HaShem ceased His creation in order to stop hiding. Where is the scriptual evidence for His hiding. Then I got it! האל שאמר די לעולמו, literally means "The Power that said 'Enough' to His World" , where the word עולם is the same word as Concealed!!!!!
The Power that said 'Enough' to His 'Concealment'. Fantastic!!!
Okay now RABBI BLEW Ma mind. I’m a believer in yeshua , not as God but as a man . A man like me yet I listen to rabbi cos he’s a very biblically smart and I enjoy his teaching. But this teaching hear is the best so far

- this is what was established with Moses for of understanding...
it's funny when some Christian that I met told me that God official name is YHWH and it's different from Allah. while during studying this topic and read some Jewish books about it...
it appeared that YHWH appeared in the Quran but in Arabic in the word "الصمد" "A-Samid" meaning the Eternal Refuge and it share the meaning of YHWH I shall be as I shall be meaning that God will be always with you in all of your crisis.
in fact chapter 112 in the Quran when Jews comes to the prophet Mohammad peace be upon him asking about his view to God. the answer was …
قل هو الله أحد 1 الله الصمد 2
qul whowa allahu Ahad 1 Allahu A-smid
say God is one 1 God is Eternal Refuge.
as the word one (Ahad ) reference to the Hebrew word Ehad in Deuteronomy 6:4
shema israel adonai eloheinu adonai echad
hear o Israel the lord is our God the lord is one!
and also the word YHWH Rabbi Saadia Goun transulated as the Eternal.
the bottom line here. We Muslims worship the same God as Jews and Christians even if there some don't like to acknowledge this
Christians?
Worship One God
the Word Allah comes from 2 parts …
Al meaning "The " and illah meaning god
when you combine it , you will get the word Allah as short term for speaking the true God since the "Al" in Arabic can be use to speak about specific thing..
Prophet Mohammad true he is not invent new religion, because what he breach and teach is the same as all the previews prophet did before him.
We Jews know this and so should most Muslims. Arabic is a Semitic dialect. The G-d of israel is the G-d of Ishmael. The only absolute monotheism outside Judaism is Islam. That is fact.
Worship one God.
true but you need to remember the Arab originally monotheist since they are the children Ishmael , it was decade later they got influence by Pagan and start worshipping false gods with the one true God meaning in Arabic they are Mushrik .
the term shirk mean that you worship one true God and other false gods with him.
So, what prophet Mohammad did was restore the faith how it should be. by removing the false gods.
and let the Arabs go back monotheist and start worshipping one true God again.
when we say in Arabic "لا إله إلا الله " La illaha illa Allah "
meaning there is no gods (the false ones) but the God (the true God )
this definition of Allah can be find all over in the Quran.
so what I am saying that the prophet just restore the faith and clean it from paganism.
where was ishmael born of disobedience? can you quote me the verse? But i can assure you Paul was disobedient when he told you Jesus died for your filthy dirty pagan sins!
Repent and be a Unitarian at least!
Allah will punish you for condemning and singleing out Ishmael pbuh like that!! Make the Sun rise from the West before you make such statements... if you cannot do that then go and jump into the sea!
"Indeed I am I, Allah there is no god but Me" . " أنني أنا لله لا اله إلا أنا"
Enki also called ( EA ) is the First born Son of Anu. Enki (EA) is the father of Utnaphistim also called Noah.
The god of Abraham doesn’t have children or partners just saying
I thought it was a good question... I always wanna know what to call someone or how to address them.
In ancient times before Moses people serve many gods each with a specific name that characterises their nature.
I am a non-trinitarian Christian, and this kind of flawed interpretational methodology is routinely used by them. This video was very helpful!!
if Christian said , I'm meas Jesus . it doesn't make no sense because Moses met Yahweh not Jesus
WOW!
So the correct translation is "I Will Be With You" and *not* "I am who I am" as christians like to claim. Interesting.
I will bring to pass, i will become, i will be, i am, all valid interpretations.
No the correct is I shell be as I shell be

No one is greater than ones self. We are all of a Holy Family so everyone is greater than perdition. Use your own name and cast perdition to the ground and stomp it
I understand.
“ I am who I shall be “
Nope. It is I will be that I will be.
I will be with you by this redemption the same as the final redemption. The reason God changed after that by saying: "just tell them 'I will be' send me to you" because God didn't wanna scare them about the final exile.
You said that the people in slavery in Egypt wouldn't ask his name, but then you went on to explain how important a name is and also that when Jacob wrestled with the angel all night, he then asked his name. Your point that they wouldn't have asked his name doesn't make sense. Moses knew they would ask his name otherwise he wouldn't have asked.
Brilliant! Does anyone know where the idea of kel shakai as "finishing creation" comes from? That edge of hidden and revealed? The Kiddushas Levi describes it a little differently...
Here's the translation published on the Chabad website. I like it.
14God said to Moses, "Ehyeh asher ehyeh (I will be what I will be)," and He said, "So shall you say to the children of Israel, 'Ehyeh (I will be) has sent me to you.'"
Also, a question. Couldn't it be translated in the present tense in English? And that would explain what Christian Bibles did there? Cos it's kind of like the verb 'to be'?
pardon my mistyped, "used in teaching. Peace be in thy Heart. Shalom
Im muslim but i love my prophet moss
Exo 3:12 read "I will be" (H1961 haya),"with you" (H5973)
Exo 3:14 read "I will be" (H1961 haya), "that" or "as" (H834)
So, Haya = "I will be" not "I will be with you"
Can clarify ?
We'll the name of HaShem in the torah. we don't say it is really much deeper than that if you're asking about the 4 letter name, which is more like a compression of 3 words "hayah" "hoveh" "ve,yiheyeh" was, is, and will be meaning God is forever be well.

And I appeared to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob as El Shaddai, *but I did not make myself known to them by my name YHWH*.
Zec 13:9
I will bring the third part into the fire, and will refine them as silver is refined, and will test them like gold is tested. They will *call on my name*, and I will hear them. I will say, ‘It is my people;’ and they will say, *YHWH is my God.*
Yahawah means Baal. God is AHAYAH.
the question for his name is because they wanted know if it was ammon or baal or other gods of pagans or what attributes is he since the name describes the attribute so God here says that he is what he is and noone can understand him, if he said it was adonai they would say is it Aten ? if he said it was elohm(God) they will say which elohim, if he said Yahu they will say is it the assyrian yahu ? so Here he said Im that Im meaning he is the God of all but not in their description but rather in that He is what he is and cannot be fully understood
I love watching Rabbi Tovia Tanakh teachings. My opinion based on my research and Hebrew studies regarding the sacred name of the Almighty is:
Nobody knows the right pronunciation of the sacred name. After the Babylonian exile, pronouncing the sacred name became a superstition , namely whoever profane was sentenced to death in Moses times and after. So the real pronunciation of the name of the Almighty in time got lost. That is why Rabbinical authority included "title" names like " El Shaddai" and many others to the Almighty instead of saying his name.
The Rabbinical authority included the Tetragrammaton or the four Hebrew consonants letters as the "speculated" Hebrew sacred name guideline which in later time , they included different vowels systems to "insert" a pronunciation of the name. However, the Tetragrammaton is not the name of the Almighty either. Needless to say, adding speculated vowels to those four Hebrew consonants.The bottom line is that nobody knows the name of the Almighty now but, The sacred name would be given when the Messiah comes, and all nations will know his true name.
On a side note: The Tetragrammaton letters are also found in Phoenician letters as their Yahweh goddess which also is represented in the Tetragrammaton. Why? The Canaanite people worshiped a goddess called "Je ho vah " or The name YHWH, consisting of the sequence of consonants Yod, Heh, Waw, and Heh with the Tetragrammatton. So that means, we can't use a pagan name to substitute it with the sacred name of the Elohim of Abraham.
"Pay strict attention to everything I have said to you. You must not invoke the names of other gods; they must not be heard on your lips." Exodus 23:13
Exodus 20:7
We have to be really careful which we use to call the Elohim Almighty. There are consequences just using a pagan name or speculated name
Or
I will be what I will be
Or
I shall be what I shall be
But the Aleph makes the “shall” or “will” almost guaranteed.
Rabbi, the question was asked from a Muslim. Exodus 3:12 reads Revelation 3:12 because of [ *12:40]
Thus Exodus 6:3 must go together with [*11:84] in order to understand that *62:8 is of the name of Moses, for then Manoah asked the same question Judges 13:17 and the answer is *59:24!
What the rabbi forgot to say its a key point
The convenant doesnt cover the unjustice people
It wasnt unconditional
The land wasnt given unconditinaly
So many left to explain dear rabbi
Praise Yahweh 🥰🥰🥰❤❤❤
You deserve more views! thanks for sharing your knowledge
The question by the muslim is so relevant but I am afraid the answer is not satisfactory.
Exactly
And we have some Arab tribes speak Arabic other Arabs can not understand when they speak fast because they still use Aramaic words
Salamun well saith, only issue is to not associate and be mislead with the word He nor Him just because English is used is teaching. Pe Be in thy heart.
It seems very likely that each of the twelve tribes had different names for God, just as they doubtless had different sabbaths, and other customs. It was Moses' mission to unite them as one people.
