I listened to the first 4 minutes of this hoping for an intelligent response from Rabbi Manis Friedman, all that became clear is that neither he nor his "christian" friend understand Christianity all all.
The 613 commandments which can't be fulfilled were given to prove that we can't be saved on our own. But when you only believe in an 11 month hell, it's a moot point.
@@nomorecensoringme I accept your non belief but have a correct non belief about things understood correctly, not based on errors. Communicating erroneous information doesn't help anyone.
What you don't understand is he's not putting down Christianity, he's enlightening areas that are missed in loving God & following his path of goodness here on earth if I'm not mistaken.
Men have trouble accepting that God does not have the same needs or emotional design as human beings. He needs nothing, because he lacks nothing. We NEED him because we lack alot.
Well, that says it all, Johannes 5 43 I am come in my Father’s name, and ye receive me not: if another shall come in his own name, him ye will receive.
I've been reading the book of Kings and Chronicles and what is evident is that Israel didn't want the one God but kept on going back to the pagan idols of other nations.
Makes you wonder why. The lifeless idols didn't have to do anything, Yahweh did everything for them, but they kept going back to the stones... Imagine being the all-powerful creator of the universe and you kept losing your people to stones figurines... You got to be kidding me.
@@flameone4705 It's an illustration for us today. Our idols are movies, pop stars, sex, partying, frivolous shopping, etc. Although these sins seem like so much more, the stone figurines somehow possessed the same allure and distraction.
@@anameichose8854you aren’t from the linage of David. You didn’t perform miracles. You didn’t keep the law perfectly, die on the cross for the sins of men, and resurrect on the third day.
Why would you put yourself greater than God. Those that exalt themselves will be abased. Don't forget why you wear that skull cap, a sign of humility before God. God does not need you otherwise he would not be omnipotent (which he is). God does use, love and care for his creations. God said in the Bible that he didn't need the Jews. If they would not worship him, he would just have the rocks of the earth do it. He doesn't need you, he will use you and care for you and all his creations though. To think otherwise is pure arrogance.
@@wechosenfew7622 Depends. Do you believe God is Omnipotent? If so your statement answered itself. The whole premise contradicts God's character. He loves us, but certainly doesn't need us. God himself said it best here speaking to Job. Where were you when I laid the foundations of the earth? Tell Me, if you have understanding. 5 Who determined its measurements? Surely you know! Or who stretched the line upon it? 6 To what were its foundations fastened? Or who laid its cornerstone, 7 When the morning stars sang together, And all the sons of God shouted for joy? 8 "Or who shut in the sea with doors, When it burst forth and issued from the womb; 9 When I made the clouds its garment, And thick darkness its swaddling band; 10 When I fixed My limit for it, And set bars and doors; 11 When I said, 'This far you may come, but no farther, And here your proud waves must stop!' 12 "Have you commanded the morning since your days began, And caused the dawn to know its place, 13 That it might take hold of the ends of the earth, And the wicked be shaken out of it? 14 It takes on form like clay under a seal, And stands out like a garment. 15 From the wicked their light is withheld, And the upraised arm is broken. 16 "Have you entered the springs of the sea? Or have you walked in search of the depths? 17 Have the gates of death been revealed to you? Or have you seen the doors of the shadow of death? 18 Have you comprehended the breadth of the earth? Tell Me, if you know all this. 19 "Where is the way to the dwelling of light? And darkness, where is its place, 20 That you may take it to its territory, That you may know the paths to its home? 21 Do you know it, because you were born then, Or because the number of your days is great? 22 "Have you entered the treasury of snow, Or have you seen the treasury of hail, 23 Which I have reserved for the time of trouble, For the day of battle and war? 24 By what way is light diffused, Or the east wind scattered over the earth?
@@dogegamer3288 To be certain your religion is best is pure arrogance. Judaism, on the other hand, teaches that good people of any belief go to heaven. Now that's genuine humility. Humility and confidence; an excellent combination for doing one's part for bringing heaven to Earth.
God needs our worship, in return he gives us what we need including Salvation. It's a very basic formula in the Bible. God created both Good and Evil in order to receive true worship rather than to be worshipped by a bunch of robots.
@@solomonstolberg4383 God is the Creator of all that exists, including animals, plants, fish, etc., but does not NEED them. The word Need, as a verb, means to be in want, or under necessity. King David said that he could give nothing to the Lord that the Lord did not first give him. All things are from Him, for Him and to Him. He is not dependent on mankind, who is frail, impure and fleshly in every manner and can do nothing that God does not permit. He is in control of everything in heaven and earth. He knows what is in man, and had eliminated all mankind by a flood due to their wicked ways, and even repented from creating them. All perished but 8 people and the animals that God selected to live. We can do nothing without the Lord, not even pray. He puts the prayer in our heart to seek Him so that He can give it to us. All things come from Him. He hears the cries of the poor and needy. Those of a contrite heart, He will not deny. He is God and there is no other. Nothing in the heavens or on earth compares to Him. If there is not one person to cry out to Him, He will cause even the rocks to cry out on His behalf.
My reaction was exactly the same as the comment below. The God we believe in grieves when we reject Him but is not ‘vulnerable’ as a human is vulnerable.
It saddens him that's all he wants the best for us it saddens him when men ignore him and it angers him when they do terrible things as a result of that
😂😂 Why computer scientists invest the firs Computer? Well the Christians will answer that Computer Scientist loves PC. We designed computers so that we can interact and use it to make our lives easier. I think need always comes first, love is a second choice. You might see a very beautiful lady on the street, you don’t love her of course, but you need her attractiveness to pleasure your needs. Well if you find out she’s a good person, instead of gold digger. Obviously you’ll gradually starting to love her.
We need each hother. He needs us to take care of his creation, and we need him to have a life on the creation. Just like an investor needs people to take care of his investment and those people need the investor to provide them what was promised. It is just like when artists create their art - after the creation there is many people who take care of the art: people who protect copyrights, conservators, agents, other artists reacreating it to keep the memory alive and so on. This is actually a very simple and basic concept of life. Hope this makes sense :)
He uses the phrase "practicing Christianity " rather than "was a Christian " because according to Jewish law, in the eyes of G-d a Jew remains a Jew even if he "converts". The 613 commandments were not given to prove they can't be kept. They were given with precise instruction and with the promise of reward and punishment. G-d does not lie, nor does he play games. He means what He says. We don't need to be "saved"; we need to live up to our mission in life, which is to seek out G-d in our lives and connect with Him with Him with live and awe by fulfilling His will. For Jews this is the 613 commandments, for non-Jews this is the 7 Noachide Laws. Unlike other religions, Judaism teaches that you have a place in Heaven even if you are not Jewish, as long as you keep the 7 Noachide Laws. Judaism is not for everybody, but G-d's love is there for all who love Him. G-d's "vulnerability" is that He leaves it up to us to excersize our free will (a gift from Him) to decide whether we want to pursue a relationship with Him (which He wants). Certainly G-d showers us with love and compassion all the time, even when in hard times, but it's up to us to recognize it. He wants a connection with us, it's why He made us, but He doesn't force it on us. This chosen vulnerability does not detract one iota from His Supremacy. Only the Almighty Timeless Master of all has the ability to be so vulnerable with the assurance to ultimately have what He seeks.
@TheSeptuagint Talmud is the oral part of the Torah. As an emergency measure at the beginning of our current exile, it was written in an abbreviated way, so as to retain it while still requiring the personal, teacher student mode of transmission. Without the Oral Law, the meaning and intent of the Written Law (what Christians call the "Old" Testament) cannot be properly understood. For example, in the Written Law, there is a commandment to use phylacteries, but the Oral Law is where there is a description of what they are.
well, synagogues and rabinic judaism are derived from the the pharisees tradition, so that shouldnt surprise you. The official jewish priesthood died out when the 2nd temple was destroyed.
There are still Jewish preists. Their role is just much smaller now as there is no more animal sacrifice. Also some of the twelve tribes have been recovered in places like India ans Ethiopia. And they have nearly indentical values and traditions.
@@grampsONeill All you have is lies. You have no idea what you’re talking about because you have no idea who Rabbi Manis Friedman is. The projection coming from you is strong indeed. 😅
If I limit myself to the Torah alone, will it be enough for me to know God as He has described Himself? The integrity and reliability of the Bible is a vitally important issue for every living person.
"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." John 3:16
Please let me correct you. Yoshke is not God’s son, Israel is. Exodus 4:22 “This is what the LORD says: Israel is my firstborn son”. This proves that the xian scriptures are a lie. Because how many firstborn sons does God have?
@@truenorth2977 God’s Servant in Isaiah is always directly identified as Israel. Never once as the second person of a polytheistic three person deity. Isaiah 41:8 “But thou, Israel, My servant, Jacob whom I have chosen, the seed of Abraham My friend;” Isaiah 44:1 “Yet now hear, O Jacob My servant, and Israel, whom I have chosen” Isaiah 44:2 “Fear not, O Jacob My servant,...” Isaiah 44:21 “Remember these things, O Jacob, and Israel, for thou art My servant; I have formed thee, thou art Mine own servant; O Israel, thou shouldest not forget Me.” Isaiah 45:4 “For the sake of Jacob My servant, and Israel Mine elect, I have called thee by thy name, I have surnamed thee, though thou hast not known Me” Isaiah 49:3 “And He said unto me: 'Thou art My servant, Israel, in whom I will be glorified.'
Bardzo ciekawy wykład. I widzę w nim odpowiedź na pytanie tytułowe. Otóż. Bóg nie dlatego posłał na ziemię Jezusa Chrystusa że nie mógłby czegoś wykonać sam ale dlatego, że samemu będąc przepełniony miłością, stworzył nas ludzi i pragnął się z nami tą nieskończoną miłością podzielić. Dlatego dla nas stworzył TEN wszechświat i wszystkie PRZYSZŁE światy. Jezus przyszedł na ziemię po to, aby nam to oznajmić. Dlatego KAŻDY kto wierzy w Jezusa Chrystusa, otrzyma ten najwspanialszy dar miłości od samego Boga i dlatego mamy prawo nazywać się jego dziećmi amen. A jeżeli rabbi nie może tego zrozumieć to dlatego, że nie wierzy w miłość Boga do ludzi amen.

We don't need God. We need each other because we were created in his image. The best way to serve God is to treat your fellow human being the vest way possible. You can't do anything for God. Even the thought that God is in his creation is nonsense. It's like a baker being in his baked bread.
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was with God in the beginning. 3 Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. 4 In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind. 5 The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it. I do believe in THE God who is writen in the holy Bible with all my heart with all my soul and all my strenght!
I am looking at the comments from both Jews and Christians. Some of them are uplifting, but some are not and it makes me sad. I do not agree with every little thing Rabbi Friedman says, but I have got so much from his videos I cannot express how helpful they have been. I am Christian and can only speak from that point-of-view, but to me G-d would not want us to be rude to each other. In the New Text, it says to respect the Jewish people because they are the roots and Christians are the branches. And, that the branches cannot survive without the roots. The Jewish nation was anointed to bring the knowledge of G-d into this world and everyone should respect them for that. David said that anyone G-d anoints, no man has the right to judge, 1 Samuel 26:9
Anlysis Mira arriba los menzajes en Espanol ahi esta la VERDAD =JESUCRISTO si los lees Entenderas TODO y para salvacion y vida ETERNA ver (HECHOS 2:37-39)
G- d anointed the Jews not to bring anything to the world but rather he anointed the Jews because he favored Abraham. He allows the goy to live under the Noahide laws…Muslim and ,Christian. Jew were HIS choice. The covenant can never be broken. That would make G-d a liar, negating the covenant and création itself. Jews are here because Adonai loves them.
This man is deceived. He is holding on to his traditions with pride. That's Satanic. Sometimes people listen to senior citizens and their old demeanor and not what they're saying. I see you caught it, but it's not everyone. I hope someone can get through to him and God opens his eyes.
Shalom, "God needs", rabbi, what could God possibly need? No, God doesn't need but wants you (us) to know what we need! We need God, we need His commandments to save man and to have the life God created for us. Amen
I would listen to a strong Jewish argument against Christianity. This is not one. This is similar to the endless Christian speeches that discredit jewdaism. As an agnostic, I would like to see religions comparing their resources for greater wisdom and comparison
According to your book, j-man says, all those who know the only true G-d are one with Him. He also recites Shema Israel, and says there is no other but He. If he said, he was one with G-d, This isn’t a declaration of divinity. It’s a declaration of unity, and every Jewish person can identify with it, because every Jewish person has a spark of G-d in them, and the Jewish people are connected and married to G-d and are 1 with Him. All of Israel is the son of G-d. “Then you shall say to Pharaoh, ‘Thus says HASHEM: “Israel is My son, My firstborn.” Exodus 4:22

Catholic christianity, a life of authentic Christian prayer and sacramental worship, works for me. I had traumatic abuse as a child, a horrific "Catholic" marriage to a narcissist psychopath for 33 years, deaths of young loved ones including a beloved son, my living children have lost their faith, all of which had given me a life sentence of feeling crushed and unloved. But this Easter (on Good Friday evening, to be exact) all that pain left. Have been praying St. Therese's novena to never forget God's love for me. Praise God!
What could be more vulnerable than to be stripped and nailed to a cross? As a Christian I feel a great connection with Jews; we worship the same God of Abraham, the one true God. Your friend the psychiatrist’s view of Christianity does not seem in alignment with what I have been taught, and I do believe we will still meet in heaven.

I have Jewish heritage in my lineage, I am a Christian and raised as such, I believe in G*d's vulnerability. He said you will have no other gods before me, He gets jealous, he can be grieved, provoked to anger slow or not, we can move the hand of god and minister to his spirit... We are created in his image, and the many aspects of God, we are the reflection of Him. He is a family man, He needs people to participate, and when we don't he looks for a willing vessels. Shalom
You seriously think you need to quote pieces of the Torah to us? To a rabbi? What does that prove for you? We've spent over 3335 years studying it, dissecting it, to know intimate levels of G-d's words, not the simplicity of them. No, G-d does not 'look for other vessels'. A relationship with G-d is complex, sometimes distant, sometimes intimately close. It is never, never, "abandoned". He has not "given up" on us, Jews, either. Moshiach is coming to finish the preparation for this world to be perfected for G-d to dwell here with us. Here. Not in heaven.
I'm a Jew who likes your post. In Judaism beliefs don't matter as much as your actions as part of your community. I was raised atheist Jewish. My dad was devout till the Holocaust. He would be 110 if he were alive today. Since some parts of Judaism see history as an expression of G-d's will, a lot of Jews who were adult during WW2 became atheist from that trauma. Ironically my return to Kabbalic beliefs started with participation in Native American ceremonies in my 30s. My atheism began cracking when I became a camping nut in my 20s & I had mystical experiences in nature. My own belief is that if your religion gives you compassion & courage & a sense of responsibility, you please G-d, no matter what religion you believe in.
Hopefully, one day, you will turn away from the idolatry of xtianity and return to G.d. and his Instructions. I have a complicated history, converting is not an option for me, but keeping the Noachide Laws allows me to love, fear and obey HaShem as a Non-Jew (Father Jewish, mother a convert, so i am not a B'nei Ysrael). Best wishes in your studies. If you have not done so yet, read Torah from beginning to end, it takes one year. We are on parasha " Naso" in the book of Numbers this week. Prepare for Truth !!

I have to say I’m quite disappointed. I have been struggling for a very long time on my intertwined faith between Judaism and Christianity. I grew up, messianic, Hebrew. Normally I love hearing Rabbi Friedman‘s messages. However, this time I can’t be on board with the idea of “God’s vulnerability” a god whom is vulnerable, must be capable of being flawed. Seeing how God and God alone determines what is good bad flawed or perfect . God in and of himself is quite incapable of being flawed or vulnerable. A God that is flawed is not worth worshiping. Therefore, the God of Abraham can only be an all powerful all-knowing and an invulnerable God. I still love hearing your voice, Rabbi. I hope that I may gain some kind of better understanding as I rediscover my faith.

Because many would consider God’s being both loving and compassionate towards others as vulnerabilities and flaws. Entering into a loving relationship with someone else comes with very real risks. They might turn on you and reject you at any time. You might show compassion, and someone might take advantage of you for doing that. But, the alternative is for God to become a cold, heartless robot to shut out any perceivable vulnerabilities.
a complete nonsense what he said. God needs us? He needs us for what? To lift his throne? To shine his crown? To pull his kingdom carriage? Does this mean when the humanity doesn't exist anymore God will cease to exist? he imagines a God similar to Steve Jobs, he created his mac computer because he needs it, doesn't make any sense just like the Christian concept three in one, go and try to make a sense of it. If God loves us this means he is vulnerable, imagine a vulnerable God? vulnerability is the quality of being easily hurt or attacked. for how long the humanity has bee hostile and transgressed since the existence of the earth. God has a lot of patience and he doesn't get hurt easily otherwise he would have buried alive George Bush, Tony Blair and their clan when they went caused destruction and death in Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, Lybia...etc Again, this Rabbi is comparing the love of God toward his creation, to the love of humans toward others or objects they create or already created by God, God is self-sufficient, all-knowing, all-hearing and all-powerful therefore he doesn't need us, we need him badly especially these horrible times we live in where the wrong became right and the right became wrong. God loves the one who loves him, he loves the one who wants to sincerely connect with him, who doesn't associate any partner with him, who doesn't abuse his other creation. God loves the one who struggles to perfect his character, the one who serves other creation of god. God knows humanity he created like the back of his hand[metaphorically], he knows who is the sincere and who is the insincere so he won't get shocked when the insincere turns his back on God.
God is beyond infinite and can do anything but lie; He had to break himself into an uncountable infinity just to make the universe. Where do you think the matter came from? But he's a greater quantity of infinite so he can be both broken and whole at once.
I agree 100% with you. Nobody's perfect, only God is perfect in every way possible. Some Rabbi's know so much detail that they miss the big picture. God will never be flawed. Amen

There are some very questionable sayings hidden in the Talmudic writings which are massive in volume. We can form no opinions without a wealth of knowledge that would take years to amass.

What I find amazing is the person who could not be a Christian because God is not vulnerable because you go to hell when you deny him in Christianity, is that not the same in Judaism? Isn't that exactly what happened when Moses came down from the mountain and found the golden calf. Isn't that what happened when God sent the plagues to hurt the Egyptians who were also God's children?
“For God so loved the earth...” You know the rest. God loves us. God does not need us, he wants us to love him without compelling us. For without choice love does not exist.
As a christian answer about vulnerability.... For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth on him should not perish, but have eternal life. John 3:16

I’m sorry, but I don’t know anything more vulnerable than giving your son as a sacrifice, to be beaten beyond recognition, nailed to a cross and left to die. All the while having insults are thrown at you and soldiers gambling for your clothing. If that’s not vulnerable, then you explain to me what is. I think this friend you speak of, is a figment of your wild imagination and maybe you should take the time to understand Christianity before spouting lies from within the walls of your echo chamber
God doesn’t need us. He made us out of an abundance of love as a unnecessary gift, freely given, which we neither earned nor deserved. If he needs us, then he would not be already perfect and therefore not God, properly understood.
@@Joe-bh4vz so anyone who sacrifices their life to save another life is immoral? So the person who jumps on a grenade to save his fellow soldiers is doing something immoral?

No one can ever be perfect. There is no true benchmark for perfection living as a human. Just trying to be better than the day before is all one can do. ✌️❤️🇨🇦
God doesn’t NEED us. He WANTS us. His love is not like human love, His love is PERFECT, COMPLETE and WHOLE. He can ‘feel’ vulnerability without literally being vulnerable. Remember he made us in his image. He gave us feelings. They are useful, but should not be blindly ‘followed’ as he warns us plenty. If we experience the “feeling” of vulnerability as images of Him, then He clearly experiences vulnerability Himself, yes? We are human, sinful and fallen, but He is whole and perfect and complete. His vulnerability is not the same.
Nah, being emotional is a deception of Satan. Gods love and anger are dispassionate and logical. Scripture says mans anger does not produce Gods righteousness and love is patient and kind.
Maybe God needed us so much and loved us so much that He became flesh and sacrificed Himself on the cross for us? Talk about being vulnerable right? He loved/loves us so much! I love the Rabbi’s videos. Thank you and Shalom. We serve the one True God.
Not possible, read the Torah. More specifically The book of Numbers where Hashem says " I am your male nor female, I have no shape or form!". The almighty does not change his mind. He transcends time so if that is what he was going to do he would have let us know that. At the end of Deuteronomy it's specifically outlines for the Jewish people to not follow prophets that speak against his word. It goes on further to say that that prophet Shall surely die. The idea that God became man is nothing more than a pagan invention created by Roman and Greek mythology. I'm sorry I do not mean to offend you I am only offering you God's word
@@CHAZZANELKINS01 Rabboni, I took your words in love. How does one explain when God is described as speaking with Moses and Aaron in Numbers 12? How does one explain The Lord speaking to Moses face to face, as one speaks to a friend in Exodus 33? What about the story of the Tower of Babel that is found in the book of Genesis in the Torah, specifically in Genesis 11:1-9. According to the story, the people of the earth, who all spoke one language, gathered in the land of Shinar (Babylonia) and decided to build a city with a tower that would reach the heavens. They wanted to make a name for themselves and prevent their dispersal across the earth. Did The Lord come down to see the city and the tower the people were building? In Isaiah 53, who is referred to as the "Suffering Servant"? In Genesis 18, three men (understood to be angels) visit Abraham, and he extends hospitality to them. Similarly, in Genesis 32, Jacob wrestles with a man who is later revealed to be an angel. Were they in human form and were they angels ? Please point me to the Torah version (English but I will learn Hebrew if needed) you want me to read. I would like to learn. Baruch Shalom! With Love and Peace. Sri
You're only considering the idea that you're right, and not the possibility that you're wrong. If you're wrong, it's bad news for you. If a Jew believes you and you're wrong, it's even worse news for him. This of course only works on a situation where Judaism is perfect and Christianity has an insane number of flaws, as pointed by the free eternal hell tickets. Because this because an unfavourable Russian Roulette ( and one that Christianity started, because if only Judaism exists, there is no Russian Roulette )

@@filthism1659 There is a difference between being Jewish and believing in Judaism. You will never be Jewish unless your mother was Jewish.

I'm sorry to tell you, but you don't get to decide. None of us do.
Yes, even today when they read Moses’ writings, their hearts are covered with that veil, and they do not understand. But whenever someone turns to the Lord, the veil is taken away. 2 Corinthians 3:15-16
Daniel 7:13-14 The son of man comes to the ancient of days and receives all power and authority to establish His Kingdom(The church) in the earth. Matthew 28:18 All power is given unto me in Heaven and in Earth
Monotheism stemmed from Judaism within the Abrahamic world. Before Abraham, monotheistic culture (but with diversity, not an impersonal abstraction) was extent and highly developed within ancient Bharata (Vedic India). The pride of the rabbis is malodorous.
I don’t understand why he is saying no one cares if you are perfect. The whole point of the law was to call humanity toward perfection and holiness so that we can be with him once again instead of separated from him by sin. God cares about us being perfected because if we aren’t we can not be with him, we will die in his presence without being purified in perfection, through atonement, through a heart that is for him and his law. I’m not Jewish but I thought this is a basic understanding of the function of the law, and he seems to be undermining it with his statements
stop being deluded once and for all,no one is perfect ...to be perfect it means make no mistakes in life at all which is impossible,we all have bad thoughts sometimes we all fall victim sometimes to anger and etcc,if you think you can be perfect then You have serious mental issues .
@@jessedylan6162 What is greater love than dying for those you love? Zechariah 12:10 Mourning for the One They Pierced 10 “And I will pour out on the house of David and the inhabitants of Jerusalem a spirit of grace and supplication. They will look on me, the one they have pierced, and they will mourn for him as one mourns for an only child, and grieve bitterly for him as one grieves for a firstborn son. Isaiah 53 53 Who has believed our message and to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed? 2 He grew up before him like a tender shoot, and like a root out of dry ground. He had no beauty or majesty to attract us to him, nothing in his appearance that we should desire him. 3 He was despised and rejected by mankind, a man of suffering, and familiar with pain. Like one from whom people hide their faces he was despised, and we held him in low esteem. 4 Surely he took up our pain and bore our suffering, yet we considered him punished by God, stricken by him, and afflicted. 5 But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was on him, and by his wounds we are healed. 6 We all, like sheep, have gone astray, each of us has turned to our own way; and the Lord has laid on him the iniquity of us all. 7 He was oppressed and afflicted, yet he did not open his mouth; he was led like a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before its shearers is silent, so he did not open his mouth. 8 By oppression and judgment he was taken away. Yet who of his generation protested? For he was cut off from the land of the living; for the transgression of my people he was punished. 9 He was assigned a grave with the wicked, and with the rich in his death, though he had done no violence, nor was any deceit in his mouth. 10 Yet it was the Lord’s will to crush him and cause him to suffer, and though the Lord makes his life an offering for sin, he will see his offspring and prolong his days, and the will of the Lord will prosper in his hand. 11 After he has suffered, he will see the light of life and be satisfied; by his knowledge my righteous servant will justify many, and he will bear their iniquities. 12 Therefore I will give him a portion among the great, and he will divide the spoils with the strong, because he poured out his life unto death, and was numbered with the transgressors. For he bore the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.
No man but one man did and He is the one who saved me and covered me with his precious blood so that I and many like me could be make perfect and spotless in my Father's eyes.
Well then why does Judaism and Christianity is similar to each other then? And you can’t claim that Christianity is the true religion either because one is older than the other.
Hey, Christians in the comments. Have some respect - your prophet said to turn the other cheek… so why can’t you just let other people live their lives when they aren’t doing anything to harm you. Go follow your faith and leave Jews alone.
The love between a parent and a child is diffrent than that between a couple. Any good parent will put themself in harms way to protect their children. That's what God did. You just don't want to see things as they are.

I have always loved god since I can remember. I am a Christian and yes you are right, there is only one god. I need god more than god needs me! God the father, god the son and god the holy spirit amen!!
For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that whosoever shall believe in Him should not perish but have everlasting life John 3:16

The reason love hurts is that it is SUPPOSED to hurt. If it DOESN’T hurt, it was never love in the first place. It’s not about alchemy, to make it all ‘doable’. It’s really about ‘transmuting’ the inevitable pain into real power, which makes God very proud of you. You are my son, in whom I am well pleased. Listen to him. ~ Gomtuu
According to the scripture the have no arguments or excuses. ✝ Romans 1:19 "because that which is known of God is revealed in them, for God revealed it to them." ✝ Romans 1:20 "For the invisible things of him since the creation of the world are clearly seen, being perceived through the things that are made, even his everlasting power and divinity, that they may be without excuses In other words there's no logical or scientific reason to reject YHWH. They do it because they don't want to be told what to do. If there's a God he's the Creator in order to be GOD he at the very least has to know more than anyone else and be more powerful than anyone or anything else. To tic off another box he is also everywhere. He's before between and at the end of time. If he made everything that means it's his and he gets to make the rules. It was said by a famous atheist once said eather there's a GOD or there isn't and both possibilities are equally frightening.
I guarantee you that this video will be going viral, and this Rabbi will be getting a lot of backlash from the Christian world because of his ignorant comments about Christians and Christianity.
'Ignorant comments'? We don't believe what you do. That's it. We don't want to either. Make you happier? The truth is not a power play, or a manipulation, or politically correct, a popularity contest, and shouldn't be adjusted to make the audience "happy". Do you agree? The rabbi isn't giving a lecture on christianity. He's giving it on G-d. Do you ever hear him preach, as non-Jewish preachers do, that you all have to convert, or suffer the consequences? Maybe look at what is and isn't being said. No "commercial" for christianity will come out of a rabbi's mouth. Should it?
How much more vulnerable can He get than being paraded around naked. Shamed. Ridiculed and then hung on a cross for all to see? That’s pretty vulnerable to me.
As a Christian I do believe that God needs something from me. Love. Love can not be forced. He gave us free will, it was a sacrifice on his part knowing that some of his children would turn away. But the ones who do not turn away will be spending eternity worshiping in his presence and loving him because they chose to. Not because they were forced to. Love is not love if you have to be convinced or coerced into it. God came to earth in the flesh, offered us the gift of paying off all our spiritual debts, and left us 100% in control of whether we accept that gift or not.
Genesis answers the Question. Genesis 1:2 Now the earth was astonishingly empty, and darkness was on the face of the deep, and the spirit of God was hovering over the face of the water. בוְהָאָ֗רֶץ הָֽיְתָ֥ה תֹ֨הוּ֙ וָבֹ֔הוּ וְח֖שֶׁךְ עַל־פְּנֵ֣י תְה֑וֹם וְר֣וּחַ אֱלֹהִ֔ים מְרַחֶ֖פֶת עַל־פְּנֵ֥י הַמָּֽיִם: 1:26 And God said, "Let us make man in our image, after our likeness, and they shall rule over the fish of the sea and over the fowl of the heaven and over the animals and over all the earth and over all the creeping things that creep upon the earth."

Welcome home ! If you study and make your conversion, great, but if you do not, that is great also. Whatever is HaShem 's Will. I was on same path as you, and honestly, since i am older and will not be raising a family, studying and observing the Noachide Laws with Orthodox Rabbanim seems to be exactly where i need to be. Better that i have some 70 Mitzvot done well than botch up the many more Mitzvot given to tbe B'nei Ysrael. I would cause the Rabbanim who followed my conversion to sin, when i sinned.
@@avalerie4467 Thanks for your reply. My biggest issues have been that the tanakh says different from what the rabbi have been saying, and when this is pointed out they just say well it does not mean that. . This is from Chabad. None of this makes any sense. The Word of God is the Word of God.
@@thomasmattson2389 how long have you been studying under your Rabbi's tutelage ? For conversion, or as a Noachide? Your questions will easily be answered in your study group. If there has been deviation from Torah and you feel the group you are studying with is not keeping Torah, i would definitely not hang out there anymore. Still give some tzedaka for the schul, but maybe it's not the right one for you. Caveat - if, heaven forbid, this is a messianic church you've found yourself in, RUN !!!!!! Edit. Sorry, you stated Chabad. Chabad does not do conversions. Answered my own question.
@@avalerie4467 What I mean is stuff like this. Moses saw God. Exodus 33:18 Moses said: "Show me, now, Your glory!" 19He said: "I will let all My goodness pass before you; I will proclaim the name of the Lord before you, and I will favor when I wish to favor, and I will have compassion when I wish to have compassion." 20And He said, "You will not be able to see My face, for man shall not see Me and live." 21And the Lord said: "Behold, there is a place with Me, and you shall stand on the rock. 22And it shall be that when My glory passes by, I will place you into the cleft of the rock, and I will cover you with My hand until I have passed by. 23Then I will remove My hand, and you will see My back but My face shall not be seen." And Abraham saw and talked with God. Genesis 18:1-15 " 13And the Lord said to Abraham, "Why did Sarah laugh, saying, 'Is it really true that I will give birth, although I am old?'14Is anything hidden from the Lord? At the appointed time, I will return to you, at this time next year and Sarah will have a son."17And the Lord said, "Shall I conceal from Abraham what I am doing?19For I have known him because he commands his sons and his household after him, that they should keep the way of the Lord to perform righteousness and justice, in order that the Lord bring upon Abraham that which He spoke concerning him."20And the Lord said, "Since the cry of Sodom and Gomorrah has become great, and since their sin has become very grave,26And the Lord said, "If I find in Sodom fifty righteous men within the city, I will forgive the entire place for their sake."32And he said, "Please, let the Lord's wrath not be kindled, and I will speak yet this time, perhaps ten will be found there." And He said, "I will not destroy for the sake of the ten."33And the Lord departed when He finished speaking to Abraham, and Abraham returned to his place.” The tanakh is clear, so why isn't it understood as written. Nothing makes sense.
10 The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I came that they may have life, and have it abundantly. 11 I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep. John 10:10-11
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.17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
I’m sorry, but I don’t know anything more vulnerable than giving your son as a sacrifice, to be beaten beyond recognition, nailed to a cross and left to die. All the while having insults are thrown at you and soldiers gambling for your clothing. If that’s not vulnerable, then you explain to me what is. I think this friend you speak of, is a figment of your wild imagination and maybe you should take the time to understand Christianity before spouting lies from within the walls of your echo chamber
He doesn't even understand his own Bible. The old Testament speaks of 2 different gods, the Creator and the god of this world. He follows the god of this world. Why do you think the jews own everything? They're given over to the god of this world.
I am a Christian from Eastern Europe, I love jews and I know that Christianity with Jewish are the truth religions. Rabbi Manis is very clever, the wisdom is "visible". .... and I am using his youtube videos to practice my english lenguage 🙂
@SunnyLovetts Your statement is valid. It's not an invalid statement. However, it's not true. All pigs fly. Therefore, Piggy flies. That's also a valid statment that isn't true.
God's love for us must not be misinterpreted as His vulnerability. I love my children very much and I always want them to be safe and successful. Most of the times they do not want to do things that will make them good persons in their lives because they don't understand the life since they haven't experienced it. So, I had to tell them things with good degree of sternness. All because of my profound love for them. God also loves us and want us to LIVE.
God is not vulnerable? Even submitting to death on a cross, and He's not vulnerable?? Christian teaching says of redemption at Parousia, when all will be before God... Under-developed argument here.
Rabbi, please forgive me. I am a Christian Orthodox from America and I am truly enjoying and learning from your videos. However, if it's at all possible, when you mention a Yiddish word, would you follow it up with the translation in English? It would be very helpful. May GOD continue to bless all that you do.
Please be sure to read the New Testament, unlike Rb. Friedman, so that you can identify all of his errors such as the ideas that God needs humans, that the Trinity are multiple rather than One God in 3 Persons, and that God callously feels no pain nor shows any vulnerability when humans reject him. ~C
The rabbi has a tendency to get things backwards. God did not need to take the Jews out of Egypt, the Jews "needed" God to deliver them. It is obvious the psychiatrist was a Protestant and allowed his profession to confuse him. The rabbi's example of Christianity is as bad as the psychiatrist. Imagine if I said I knew a man who was a professor of economics, and he claimed to practice Judaism for 30 years. He believed Judaism was devoted to God and earthly wealth: the more money you have, the more favor you have in God's eyes. He prayed for money and wealth for thirty years... did not get it, so he left Judaism. This faux definition of Judaism is as bad as the rabbi's definition of Christianity. God is not vulnerable; God has no needs; at least as we humans understand this. A Psychiatrist is not a good source for understanding theology.
I'm glad that people of peace exist in this modern era (not saying this because of your religion) we seem to forget that Israel Islam and Christianity are all Abrahaic brothers
God says that we should not lean on our own understanding but to have faith in him, trust him and the fact that he wants us all to come to him as he is patient and wants that none of us shall perish
I am Orthodox Christian and love listening to Rabbi Friedman. It is fair enough to say that Christianity "doesn't work" for some. It does work for me, and many others. That's why we are people of certain tradition, it worked for us for generations. We don't have to pretend that we understand each other's religion. I have deep respect for Judaism, even if I don't understand it really. Peace
You wouldn't have any respect for Judaism if you knew what was in the talmud. I suspect you "respect" Judaism because many Old Covenant traditions are in the Orthodox Christian church. I know this because I'm Greek Orthodox. But Jews today don't care about about the Old Covenant. The Jews today practice the talmud (and many are atheist/secularist), making them the Synagogue of Satan prophecied in Revelation, 2,9.
Or vice-versa... Who says you are right? Please prove and do not state it's based on faith and what us written in the New Testament that can be debunked by Torah.
Yeah, you keep thinking that. I've had experiences that you couldn't even begin to explain. I know because I can't. There are more things in Heaven and Earth than are dreamt of in your philosophy. And you aren't worshiping who or WHAT you think you are. Tread lightly.
If a man risked his own life to save a woman's life and she still mocked him and doubted his love and who he said he was, what would that woman be? What if the woman was the one who tried to take his life even?
I listened to the first 4 minutes of this hoping for an intelligent response from Rabbi Manis Friedman, all that became clear is that neither he nor his "christian" friend understand Christianity all all.
What should we 'understand' that will cause you "accept" our non belief?
The 613 commandments which can't be fulfilled were given to prove that we can't be saved on our own. But when you only believe in an 11 month hell, it's a moot point.
@@nomorecensoringme I accept your non belief but have a correct non belief about things understood correctly, not based on errors. Communicating erroneous information doesn't help anyone.

Ok Ewa, so answer me this: what happens to the soul of a person that rejects God and spends his life proving to everyone that He cannot exist?
Men have trouble accepting that God does not have the same needs or emotional design as human beings. He needs nothing, because he lacks nothing. We NEED him because we lack alot.

Why would you put yourself greater than God. Those that exalt themselves will be abased. Don't forget why you wear that skull cap, a sign of humility before God. God does not need you otherwise he would not be omnipotent (which he is). God does use, love and care for his creations. God said in the Bible that he didn't need the Jews. If they would not worship him, he would just have the rocks of the earth do it. He doesn't need you, he will use you and care for you and all his creations though. To think otherwise is pure arrogance.

@@solomonstolberg4383 God is the Creator of all that exists, including animals, plants, fish, etc., but does not NEED them. The word Need, as a verb, means to be in want, or under necessity. King David said that he could give nothing to the Lord that the Lord did not first give him. All things are from Him, for Him and to Him. He is not dependent on mankind, who is frail, impure and fleshly in every manner and can do nothing that God does not permit. He is in control of everything in heaven and earth. He knows what is in man, and had eliminated all mankind by a flood due to their wicked ways, and even repented from creating them. All perished but 8 people and the animals that God selected to live. We can do nothing without the Lord, not even pray. He puts the prayer in our heart to seek Him so that He can give it to us. All things come from Him. He hears the cries of the poor and needy. Those of a contrite heart, He will not deny. He is God and there is no other. Nothing in the heavens or on earth compares to Him. If there is not one person to cry out to Him, He will cause even the rocks to cry out on His behalf.

We need each hother. He needs us to take care of his creation, and we need him to have a life on the creation. Just like an investor needs people to take care of his investment and those people need the investor to provide them what was promised. It is just like when artists create their art - after the creation there is many people who take care of the art: people who protect copyrights, conservators, agents, other artists reacreating it to keep the memory alive and so on. This is actually a very simple and basic concept of life. Hope this makes sense :)
I knew when he said “practicing Christianity” that this probably wasn’t about true Christianity. “God needed us!” Wow!
He uses the phrase "practicing Christianity " rather than "was a Christian " because according to Jewish law, in the eyes of G-d a Jew remains a Jew even if he "converts".
The 613 commandments were not given to prove they can't be kept. They were given with precise instruction and with the promise of reward and punishment. G-d does not lie, nor does he play games. He means what He says. We don't need to be "saved"; we need to live up to our mission in life, which is to seek out G-d in our lives and connect with Him with Him with live and awe by fulfilling His will. For Jews this is the 613 commandments, for non-Jews this is the 7 Noachide Laws. Unlike other religions, Judaism teaches that you have a place in Heaven even if you are not Jewish, as long as you keep the 7 Noachide Laws. Judaism is not for everybody, but G-d's love is there for all who love Him. G-d's "vulnerability" is that He leaves it up to us to excersize our free will (a gift from Him) to decide whether we want to pursue a relationship with Him (which He wants). Certainly G-d showers us with love and compassion all the time, even when in hard times, but it's up to us to recognize it. He wants a connection with us, it's why He made us, but He doesn't force it on us. This chosen vulnerability does not detract one iota from His Supremacy. Only the Almighty Timeless Master of all has the ability to be so vulnerable with the assurance to ultimately have what He seeks.
By Jewish law do you mean the Torah or the Talmud
@TheSeptuagint Talmud is the oral part of the Torah. As an emergency measure at the beginning of our current exile, it was written in an abbreviated way, so as to retain it while still requiring the personal, teacher student mode of transmission. Without the Oral Law, the meaning and intent of the Written Law (what Christians call the "Old" Testament) cannot be properly understood. For example, in the Written Law, there is a commandment to use phylacteries, but the Oral Law is where there is a description of what they are.
Our creator doesn t need anything or anyone. He who needs something or others is not a god

I am Christian and can only speak from that point-of-view, but to me G-d would not want us to be rude to each other. In the New Text, it says to respect the Jewish people because they are the roots and Christians are the branches. And, that the branches cannot survive without the roots.

You seriously think you need to quote pieces of the Torah to us? To a rabbi? What does that prove for you?
We've spent over 3335 years studying it, dissecting it, to know intimate levels of G-d's words, not the simplicity of them.
No, G-d does not 'look for other vessels'. A relationship with G-d is complex, sometimes distant, sometimes intimately close. It is never, never, "abandoned". He has not "given up" on us, Jews, either. Moshiach is coming to finish the preparation for this world to be perfected for G-d to dwell here with us. Here. Not in heaven.
I'm a Jew who likes your post. In Judaism beliefs don't matter as much as your actions as part of your community. I was raised atheist Jewish. My dad was devout till the Holocaust. He would be 110 if he were alive today. Since some parts of Judaism see history as an expression of G-d's will, a lot of Jews who were adult during WW2 became atheist from that trauma. Ironically my return to Kabbalic beliefs started with participation in Native American ceremonies in my 30s. My atheism began cracking when I became a camping nut in my 20s & I had mystical experiences in nature.
My own belief is that if your religion gives you compassion & courage & a sense of responsibility, you please G-d, no matter what religion you believe in.
Hopefully, one day, you will turn away from the idolatry of xtianity and return to G.d. and his Instructions.
I have a complicated history, converting is not an option for me, but keeping the Noachide Laws allows me to love, fear and obey HaShem as a Non-Jew

I have to say I’m quite disappointed. I have been struggling for a very long time on my intertwined faith between Judaism and Christianity. I grew up, messianic, Hebrew. Normally I love hearing Rabbi Friedman‘s messages. However, this time I can’t be on board with the idea of “God’s vulnerability” a god whom is vulnerable, must be capable of being flawed. Seeing how God and God alone determines what is good bad flawed or perfect . God in and of himself is quite incapable of being flawed or vulnerable. A God that is flawed is not worth worshiping. Therefore, the God of Abraham can only be an all powerful all-knowing and an invulnerable God.
I still love hearing your voice, Rabbi. I hope that I may gain some kind of better understanding as I rediscover my faith.

---------I suppose that depends on what you mean by “flawed”. Because many would consider God’s being both loving and compassionate towards others as vulnerabilities and flaws. Entering into a loving relationship with someone else comes with very real risks. They might turn on you and reject you at any time. You might show compassion, and someone might take advantage of you for doing that. But, the alternative is for God to become a cold, heartless robot to shut out any perceivable vulnerabilities.
a complete nonsense what he said. God needs us? He needs us for what? To lift his throne? To shine his crown? To pull his kingdom carriage? Does this mean when the humanity doesn't exist anymore God will cease to exist? he imagines a God similar to Steve Jobs, he created his mac computer because he needs it, doesn't make any sense just like the Christian concept three in one, go and try to make a sense of it.
If God loves us this means he is vulnerable, imagine a vulnerable God? vulnerability is the quality of being easily hurt or attacked. for how long the humanity has bee hostile and transgressed since the existence of the earth. God has a lot of patience and he doesn't get hurt easily otherwise he would have buried alive George Bush, Tony Blair and their clan when they went caused destruction and death in Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, Lybia...etc
Again, this Rabbi is comparing the love of God toward his creation, to the love of humans toward others or objects they create or already created by God,
God is self-sufficient, all-knowing, all-hearing and all-powerful therefore he doesn't need us, we need him badly especially these horrible times we live in where the wrong became right and the right became wrong.
God loves the one who loves him, he loves the one who wants to sincerely connect with him, who doesn't associate any partner with him, who doesn't abuse his other creation. God loves the one who struggles to perfect his character, the one who serves other creation of god. God knows humanity he created like the back of his hand[metaphorically], he knows who is the sincere and who is the insincere so he won't get shocked when the insincere turns his back on God.
I agree. I love the Rabbi's teachings but agree. If you haven't, you should read (or watch) Michael S. Heiser.
God is beyond infinite and can do anything but lie; He had to break himself into an uncountable infinity just to make the universe. Where do you think the matter came from? But he's a greater quantity of infinite so he can be both broken and whole at once.
I agree 100% with you. Nobody's perfect, only God is perfect in every way possible. Some Rabbi's know so much detail that they miss the big picture. God will never be flawed. Amen

רבנים יקרים,
אני מקווה שהמכתב הזה ימצא אותך בבריאות טובה, ואני מתפלל שאלוהי אברהם, יצחק ויעקב וחכמה יהיו על לבבך. אני כותב לך בלב מלא אהבה ויראת כבוד עמוקה לעם היהודי. בתור חסיד של ישוע המשיח, אני רוצה לחלוק איתך מידע משמעותי מהברית הישנה שמוביל לגאולה ולהתגלותו של ישוע כמשיח. גילויים אלו נחשפים כעת על ידי חלומות לעם היהודי בכללותו.
הברית הישנה, עם השטיח העשיר של חזיונות אלוהיים, מספקת תובנות עמוקות לגבי תוכנית הישועה של אלוהים. נבואות אלו, שנמסרו במשך דורות, משמשות עדות להתאמה המדהימה בין כתבי הקודש היהודיים לחייו של ישוע.
נבואה: ישעיהו ז' 14 "על כן ה' בכבודו ובעצמו יתן לכם אות: הנה הבתולה הרה ותלד בן ותקרא את שמו עמנואל". הגשמה: מתי א' 22-23 "וכך נעשה כל זה למען יתקיים אשר נאמר על ידי ה' באמצעות הנביא לאמר: 'הנה הבתולה הרה וילדה בן ויקראו'. שמו עמנואל', שמתורגם ל'אלוהים איתנו'".
נבואה: מיכה ה:2 "אבל אתה, בית לחם אפרתה, אף על פי שאתה קטן בין אלפי יהודה, אך ממך ייצא אלי המושל בישראל אשר יציאתו מימי קדם ומעולם. ." הגשמה: מתי ב' 1-2 "ועכשיו אחרי שישוע נולד בבית לחם יהודה בימי הורדוס המלך, הנה, חכמים מהמזרח באו לירושלים, ואמרו, 'היכן הוא שנולד מלך הקודש'. יהודים? כי ראינו את כוכבו במזרח ובאנו לעבוד אותו'".
נבואה: ישעיהו 53:5 "אבל על פשעינו הוא נפצע, על עוונותינו הוא נפגע; ייסור לשלום שלנו היה עליו, ובפסיו נרפאנו". הגשמה: פטרוס א' 2:24 "אשר נשא בעצמו את חטאינו בגופו על העץ, כדי שאנו, לאחר שמתנו מהחטאים, נחיה למען הצדק - אשר בפסים שלו נרפאת."
נבואה: ישעיהו ט:6 "כי ילד נולד לנו, בן ניתן לנו, והממשלה תהיה על כתפו. ושמו ייקרא נפלא, יועץ, אלוהים אדירים, אב נצח, נסיך השלום. ." הגשמה: לוקס ב':11 "כי נולד לכם היום בעיר דוד מושיע שהוא המשיח ה'".
נבואות אלו, בין רבות אחרות, מדגישות את ההתאמה המדהימה בין הברית הישנה לחייו של ישוע. אנו מוצאים בו את התגשמות הבטחותיו של אלוהים ואת הגשר המאחד את האמונה היהודית עם תקווה לישועה לכל האנושות.
בזמן שאתה חושב על הנבואות האלה, אני ממליץ לך לחקור את הקשר בין הברית הישנה והחדשה, תוך הכרה בישוע כמשיח המיוחל. יהי רצון שאלוהים של אברהם, יצחק ויעקב יגלה לך את האמת הזו לגבי המשיח המיוחל.
בברכה, יעקב

What I find amazing is the person who could not be a Christian because God is not vulnerable because you go to hell when you deny him in Christianity, is that not the same in Judaism? Isn't that exactly what happened when Moses came down from the mountain and found the golden calf. Isn't that what happened when God sent the plagues to hurt the Egyptians who were also God's children?
If you love someone, set them free. Love is not obsession or attachment.
A very often quoted misaligned idiom. I once suffered the consequence. She later said. "If you loved me why did you let me leave?"
"Who the Son sets free is free indeed."

“For God so loved the earth...” You know the rest.
God loves us. God does not need us, he wants us to love him without compelling us. For without choice love does not exist.

I’m sorry, but I don’t know anything more vulnerable than giving your son as a sacrifice, to be beaten beyond recognition, nailed to a cross and left to die. All the while having insults are thrown at you and soldiers gambling for your clothing. If that’s not vulnerable, then you explain to me what is. I think this friend you speak of, is a figment of your wild imagination and maybe you should take the time to understand Christianity before spouting lies from within the walls of your echo chamber
God doesn’t need us. He made us out of an abundance of love as a unnecessary gift, freely given, which we neither earned nor deserved. If he needs us, then he would not be already perfect and therefore not God, properly understood.
I'd say suffering & dying on the cross shows how much He cares
People have suffered greater thannon the cross.
Amen to that!
@@MM-lu2zkBut God is Greatest there is no one like him. Pure , holy, righteous.
No it doesn’t. Because it is wrong to accept responsibility for something someone else did.
Human sacrifice is absolutely immoral.
@@Joe-bh4vz so anyone who sacrifices their life to save another life is immoral? So the person who jumps on a grenade to save his fellow soldiers is doing something immoral? What about a parent sacrificing themself for their child.

No one can ever be perfect. There is no true benchmark for perfection living as a human. Just trying to be better than the day before is all one can do. ✌️❤️🇨🇦
God doesn’t NEED us. He WANTS us. His love is not like human love, His love is PERFECT, COMPLETE and WHOLE. He can ‘feel’ vulnerability without literally being vulnerable. Remember he made us in his image. He gave us feelings. They are useful, but should not be blindly ‘followed’ as he warns us plenty. If we experience the “feeling” of vulnerability as images of Him, then He clearly experiences vulnerability Himself, yes? We are human, sinful and fallen, but He is whole and perfect and complete. His vulnerability is not the same.
Nah, being emotional is a deception of Satan.
Gods love and anger are dispassionate and logical.
Scripture says mans anger does not produce Gods righteousness and love is patient and kind.
God does not need anyone. What you say is blasphemy. You don't understand Christianity at all.
Maybe God needed us so much and loved us so much that He became flesh and sacrificed Himself on the cross for us? Talk about being vulnerable right? He loved/loves us so much! I love the Rabbi’s videos. Thank you and Shalom. We serve the one True God.
Not possible, read the Torah. More specifically The book of Numbers where Hashem says " I am your male nor female, I have no shape or form!". The almighty does not change his mind. He transcends time so if that is what he was going to do he would have let us know that. At the end of Deuteronomy it's specifically outlines for the Jewish people to not follow prophets that speak against his word. It goes on further to say that that prophet Shall surely die. The idea that God became man is nothing more than a pagan invention created by Roman and Greek mythology. I'm sorry I do not mean to offend you I am only offering you God's word
@@CHAZZANELKINS01 Rabboni, I took your words in love.
How does one explain when God is described as speaking with Moses and Aaron in Numbers 12?
How does one explain The Lord speaking to Moses face to face, as one speaks to a friend in Exodus 33?
What about the story of the Tower of Babel that is found in the book of Genesis in the Torah, specifically in Genesis 11:1-9. According to the story, the people of the earth, who all spoke one language, gathered in the land of Shinar (Babylonia) and decided to build a city with a tower that would reach the heavens. They wanted to make a name for themselves and prevent their dispersal across the earth. Did The Lord come down to see the city and the tower the people were building?
In Isaiah 53, who is referred to as the "Suffering Servant"?
In Genesis 18, three men (understood to be angels) visit Abraham, and he extends hospitality to them. Similarly, in Genesis 32, Jacob wrestles with a man who is later revealed to be an angel. Were they in human form and were they angels ?

You're only considering the idea that you're right, and not the possibility that you're wrong.
If you're wrong, it's bad news for you.
If a Jew believes you and you're wrong, it's even worse news for him.

I don’t understand why he is saying no one cares if you are perfect.
The whole point of the law was to call humanity toward perfection and holiness so that we can be with him once again instead of separated from him by sin.
God cares about us being perfected because if we aren’t we can not be with him, we will die in his presence without being purified in perfection, through atonement, through a heart that is for him and his law.
I’m not Jewish but I thought this is a basic understanding of the function of the law, and he seems to be undermining it with his statements
Exactly
stop being deluded once and for all,no one is perfect ...to be perfect it means make no mistakes in life at all which is impossible,we all have bad thoughts sometimes we all fall victim sometimes to anger and etcc,if you think you can be perfect then You have serious mental issues .
He’s basically saying it’s okay to sin and you shouldn’t be judged

Zechariah 12:10
Mourning for the One They Pierced
10 “And I will pour out on the house of David and the inhabitants of Jerusalem a spirit of grace and supplication. They will look on me, the one they have pierced, and they will mourn for him as one mourns for an only child, and grieve bitterly for him as one grieves for a firstborn son.
Isaiah 53
53 Who has believed our message
and to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?
2 He grew up before him like a tender shoot,
and like a root out of dry ground.
He had no beauty or majesty to attract us to him,
nothing in his appearance that we should desire him.
3 He was despised and rejected by mankind,
a man of suffering, and familiar with pain.
Like one from whom people hide their faces
he was despised, and we held him in low esteem.
4 Surely he took up our pain
and bore our suffering,
yet we considered him punished by God,
stricken by him, and afflicted.
5 But he was pierced for our transgressions,
he was crushed for our iniquities;
the punishment that brought us peace was on him,
and by his wounds we are healed.
6 We all, like sheep, have gone astray,
each of us has turned to our own way;
and the Lord has laid on him
the iniquity of us all.
7 He was oppressed and afflicted,
yet he did not open his mouth;
he was led like a lamb to the slaughter,
and as a sheep before its shearers is silent,
so he did not open his mouth.
8 By oppression and judgment he was taken away.
Yet who of his generation protested?
For he was cut off from the land of the living;
for the transgression of my people he was punished.
9 He was assigned a grave with the wicked,
and with the rich in his death,
though he had done no violence,
nor was any deceit in his mouth.
10 Yet it was the Lord’s will to crush him and cause him to suffer,
and though the Lord makes his life an offering for sin,
he will see his offspring and prolong his days,
and the will of the Lord will prosper in his hand.
11 After he has suffered,
he will see the light of life and be satisfied;
by his knowledge my righteous servant will justify many,
and he will bear their iniquities.
12 Therefore I will give him a portion among the great,
and he will divide the spoils with the strong,
because he poured out his life unto death,
and was numbered with the transgressors.
For he bore the sin of many,
and made intercession for the transgressors.
No man but one man did and He is the one who saved me and covered me with his precious blood so that I and many like me could be make perfect and spotless in my Father's eyes.

Well then why does Judaism and Christianity is similar to each other then? And you can’t claim that Christianity is the true religion either because one is older than the other.
Your sense of humor is fantastic Rabbi Friedman.
Sense of humor or not, some of what he's saying is blasphemy.
Hey, Christians in the comments. Have some respect - your prophet said to turn the other cheek… so why can’t you just let other people live their lives when they aren’t doing anything to harm you. Go follow your faith and leave Jews alone.
Whatever you believe, it's good to do good.
Adolf and Mao believed they are doing good too.
The love between a parent and a child is diffrent than that between a couple.

Discussions like this are an atheist's best argument. Shame.
According to the scripture the have no arguments or excuses.
✝ Romans 1:19
"because that which is known of God is revealed in them, for God revealed it to them."
✝ Romans 1:20
"For the invisible things of him since the creation of the world are clearly seen, being perceived through the things that are made, even his everlasting power and divinity, that they may be without excuses
In other words there's no logical or scientific reason to reject YHWH. They do it because they don't want to be told what to do.
If there's a God he's the Creator in order to be GOD he at the very least has to know more than anyone else and be more powerful than anyone or anything else. To tic off another box he is also everywhere. He's before between and at the end of time.
If he made everything that means it's his and he gets to make the rules.
It was said by a famous atheist once said eather there's a GOD or there isn't and both possibilities are equally frightening.

That’s pretty vulnerable to me.
As a Christian I do believe that God needs something from me. Love. Love can not be forced. He gave us free will, it was a sacrifice on his part knowing that some of his children would turn away. But the ones who do not turn away will be spending eternity worshiping in his presence and loving him because they chose to. Not because they were forced to. Love is not love if you have to be convinced or coerced into it. God came to earth in the flesh, offered us the gift of paying off all our spiritual debts, and left us 100% in control of whether we accept that gift or not.

And Abraham saw and talked with God. Genesis 18:1-15 " 13And the Lord said to Abraham, "Why did Sarah laugh, saying, 'Is it really true that I will give birth, although I am old?'14Is anything hidden from the Lord? At the appointed time, I will return to you, at this time next year and Sarah will have a son."17And the Lord said, "Shall I conceal from Abraham what I am doing?19For I have known him because he commands his sons and his household after him, that they should keep the way of the Lord to perform righteousness and justice, in order that the Lord bring upon Abraham that which He spoke concerning him."20And the Lord said, "Since the cry of Sodom and Gomorrah has become great, and since their sin has become very grave,26And the Lord said, "If I find in Sodom fifty righteous men within the city, I will forgive the entire place for their sake."32And he said, "Please, let the Lord's wrath not be kindled, and I will speak yet this time, perhaps ten will be found there." And He said, "I will not destroy for the sake of the ten."33And the Lord departed when He finished speaking to Abraham, and Abraham returned to his place.” The tanakh is clear, so why isn't it understood as written. Nothing makes sense.

The rabbi has a tendency to get things backwards. God did not need to take the Jews out of Egypt, the Jews "needed" God to deliver them. It is obvious the psychiatrist was a Protestant and allowed his profession to confuse him. The rabbi's example of Christianity is as bad as the psychiatrist. Imagine if I said I knew a man who was a professor of economics, and he claimed to practice Judaism for 30 years. He believed Judaism was devoted to God and earthly wealth: the more money you have, the more favor you have in God's eyes. He prayed for money and wealth for thirty years... did not get it, so he left Judaism. This faux definition of Judaism is as bad as the rabbi's definition of Christianity. God is not vulnerable; God has no needs; at least as we humans understand this. A Psychiatrist is not a good source for understanding theology.

You wouldn't have any respect for Judaism if you knew what was in the talmud. I suspect you "respect" Judaism because many Old Covenant traditions are in the Orthodox Christian church.
