foreign Judaism different from Old Testament Judaism uh well there is no such thing as uh uh Old Testament Judaism and tommuli Judaism there is Judaism that's it the written are one they're not two of the different now the what the problem is what the Christian missionaries uh that sometimes call themselves Messianic Jews or or Hebrew Israelites or uh the uh the uh people from Islam will sometimes tell you things about the uh the Rin Torah and uh things about the oral to line in order to confuse you and mislead you but what they don't tell you is that there would be no religion at all not Judaism not Christianity and not Islam without the oral Torah which the primary part of the oral tour is the talmud and the reason why is because part of what the oral Torah does is it gives us a understanding of what the oral what the rental actually says the Old Testament actually says so for example in the Book of Genesis God says to avam to have a circumcision to cut something called hola now what is Allah now there you're not going to find this word many times in a Torah and in fact you're never going to find a verse that gives you the definition for the word Hola so if God says cut this Allah from your body the average male do you tell them listen God loves you but he says that in order for you to show your love to him your commitment you have to cut a piece of your body called hola now you're going to ask the first question if you're a smart person you say okay what's an Allah now if you're even smarter you're gonna not gonna ask you're going to Simply determine since they didn't tell me what the hola is I'll just determine what the hola is so maybe it's a piece of my ear you know cut off a little earlobe much easier than circumcision maybe it's the nails it cut off a nail much easier than even the earlobe maybe it's a uh you know it's a hair maybe you know what you could just simply decide obviously if avram avinu understood that is the foreskin on the male member the most sensitive part of the body and he's still willing to do it at the age of a hundred and then commit this very same act for the next four thousand years until this day every Jewish baby that's born on the eighth day unless they're medically unable to because they're sick or they're weak on the eighth day they have the very same circumcision that of ram avino had at 100 years old why did anybody reject it why didn't anybody throughout the last four thousand years say you know what I think hola means something else it maybe means the nails maybe it means the beard maybe means the nose maybe means a tooth anything but the foreskin but nobody ever said that everyone agreed including the Christians including the Muslims has always been the foreskin where did you get the definition it's not in the written to us not in the Old Testament where did you get it from the oral to La the oral dries word gives us that the same exact thing is in every other aspect of it so much so that the vowel system is not part of the of the written meaning if you read if you go to a a synagogue the synagogue every synagogue has multiple Torah Scrolls you open a Taurus scroll all Taurus calls are going to show you the same exact thing it's going to be Black Ink on a uh uh parchment that's white and the words don't have the dots the dashes don't have beginning or ending of statements there's no sentences that are like structure of English and other languages there's no vowel systems no punctuation system on the Torah scroll so how do you know where the sentence ends or where it begins or even how to pronounce the word or what the word means because in English you have a letter based vowel system AEI or U and sometimes y but in Hebrew there is no letters that are the vowel system rather there is the dots that you have under or inside the letters or the dashes this is called nikud this is not part of the written TOA this is something that is taught to us in the oral which means that without it you simply would not have the ability to understand a single verse for example same example I've been giving for the last decade if you wanted to say Moses is righteous so you would say much now in English Moses is righteous is three words and each one of those words has vowels in it the word Moses has the O and the e and therefore without the vowels Moses turns into Mists Miss then you have is is has one vowel that's an i without the I all you have is us so Mrs then you have the word righteous righteous has multiple vowels you have the I uh you have the uh o and the you so if you don't have the I and the O in u the righteous turns into rigs she have Miss thanks oh perhaps sounds like maybe like a bark or maybe something a sound that certain animals make certainly doesn't sound like Moses is righteous without the vowels Moses is righteous is sounds like a curse maybe in different languages is from the oral tour not from the rental which means that all religions Christianity Catholicism Islam are dependent on this very same part of the oral Torah as Judaism and without this no religion would exist so you cannot ever say that you agree with Christianity but disagree with the oral Attila why because without the oral there wouldn't be Christianity you agree with Islam but you disagree with the oral thought there's no such thing I agree with Judaism but I don't agree with the oil there's no such thing there is no Judaism without in fact the only common denominators left between Judaism and the other religions end up coming from the oral Torah not the rental so when people say no the talmud is bad and talmud has all types of strange things in it that just simply means a couple things number one the person is a manipulator number two the person has never learned the talmud number three the person is an evil person that simply is going to look for something to serve their needs and manipulate it in order to influence the public so when a person truly learns talmud they understand that this is the ultimate uh wisdom that could possibly exist and all of the things that will sound strange look strange and even be strange have explanations have clarifications many of which we've discussed over the years many of which we will discuss in the future but needless to say if a person just looks at the face value of anything in life certainly they will uh look you know see that there is something wrong if you simply get men citizen but without understanding how medicine works without understanding how much research went into the medicine without understanding the risk of not taking the medicine and the first thing you ever saw on medicine is simply the uh the uh what could happen all of the side effects okay what side effect get a headache get uh nosebleed uh urinate uh uncontrollably uh you know uh vomit uncontrollably no incapable of sleeping heart attack stroke you know on and on and on you're gonna say here bro no Hey listen buddy I'm not taking this this is terrorists poison no no this is medicine where's the medicine for oh it's a medicine for uh asthma what this is a message from asthma yeah what about all these side effects yeah these are possibilities but it's worth the risk because if the person with asthma doesn't take it he's gonna die and the likelihood of these side effects is very minimal and even if he got side effects you control it where you can stop taking it and it doesn't get to that extent but they still have to disclose it so anything that you look at without being educated the right way is going to look like it's bad or simply it's going to look different than what it really is if a person simply concluded who you are each one of you that's watching right now just by looking at you from afar on an average Tuesday afternoon perhaps you had a bad hair day perhaps you had a bad you know day all together perhaps you had a really good day perhaps you just won a bunch of money perhaps you just lost a bunch of money you had a good uh uh meal you had a terrible meal you have a stomach cake you don't feel well but this person decides that he's gonna conclude Everything About You from afar without even talking to you just by looking at you from afar would you say that that's a fair analysis of who you are obviously not and that's in essence what's happening from the missionaries and all the other ignoramuses that are trying to distort the talmud they look at it from afar without having a concept of what's really in it without ever truly studying it without truly understanding what's behind the scenes but they look into from afar and then they decide they've become teachers I even saw actually one time this this this gruesome vile human being uh uh that's actually part of the uh Hebrew Israelites who doesn't stop cursing and and just literally speaks like some animal like just a disgusting person anyway he says on air he actually says on a video which happened to be about me and he says I'm a Taurus scholar I know talmud I'm a talmud scholar he actually calls himself a talmud scholar he says I got talmud and he takes out a book that says talmud and it's one single book now what he doesn't realize that the talmud is not one book it's not my book if you combine the Jerusalem talmud with the Babylonian talmud it's 60 different masectot if you get the English version you have a 150 books more than 100 books but he thinks that it's one book he thinks it's one book meaning that his knowledge is so minimal that he doesn't even know what the talmud is yet he says I'm a talmud scholar why because he has a book that says something about the talmud but it's a single book obviously it's at the talmud but that's the ignorance here his audience also doesn't know what the talmud is and therefore they believe him they say yeah look he's got a book that says talmud on it I think it says talmud for dummies but that's a different story the point being is is that people that are uneducated about Judaism don't know what they don't know when it comes to Medicine when it comes to uh to to other aspects of life people are willing to admit what they don't know if your doctor tells you listen I understand you're scared of this medicine you're scared of the surgery but you got to trust me I've been doing this for 20 years the average normal person takes their takes their word you've been doing it for 20 years 30 years surgeries medicine everything I'm gonna trust you even though I don't know what you're doing I don't know how it's gonna work you're telling me it's gonna work because you're an expert fine I'm gonna listen to you you're a health professional I'm gonna listen to you you go to your dentist your dentist tells you have to take all these tooth out teeth out you have to put this new one in you have to make holes in this one that's how you're gonna fix it all types of stuff that's painful and expensive you don't question a dentist why because you know the last time you went to him with a toothache he made it stop you don't really know how he made it stop and why making holes in your teeth and putting some stuff in there and taking stuff out you don't actually know how it worked you just know it worked and it stopped hurting so you went back and went and you were willing to accept whatever he told you to do you didn't question it the same thing is if you went to your accountant or your lawyer and they told you listen you have to pay x amount of money in order to complete this thing and then avoid all risk of going to jail or being arrested or getting fined or losing your business and so on and so forth now you're not a legal expert or or an accounting expert but yet you pay them for that service because they're the experts meaning the average person has no problem expecting accepting the expertise of others blindly the only time that people have a problem accepting the expertise is when it comes to Torah and in fact the only place that has real expertise is the Torah why because unlike the lawyer and the doctor that has experience for the last 20 or 30 years that is only connected to him and not to the generations before because even if he learned some medicine book medical books from previous generations most of the stuff from the previous generations is no longer relevant to this generation the equipment has changed people have changed everything has changed so generally that 30-year experience that this doctor has is unique to him and will become insignificant in the Next Generation yet the Torah that I'm teaching you the Torah the rubber frame is teaching the toward the rabbi is taught a Torah that the rambam thought the toy that all of the sages taught has always been the same Torah relying on the generation before in a generation before in the generation before all the way meaning that you're not relying on my expertise I'm a zero I'm less than zero you're relying on you're relying on the great sages throughout all of the last several thousand years their expertise not mine I'm simply just telling you what they said saving you the time to read hundreds of books and you're welcome to read the books yourself but most people are not gonna do it either they don't have the time or the ability or whatever point being is you're not relying on my expertise and you shouldn't what you are relying on is the expertise of the sages for the last three thousand plus years Judaism is the only religion that has that nothing else has that if you go to the medical world to the legal World they don't have that why because anything that's of yesteryear anything from historically generally speaking more or less is useless same thing with Christianity you go to the Christian pastors and Priests and and missionaries of today they're not teaching you what Martin Luther said they're not teaching you what any of the so-called sieges of Christianity said 500 years ago a thousand years ago they're not teaching you that they're teaching you their current modern day interpretation of what was written many many centuries ago which means that the sages that were closest to when this religion started have no say have no connection to the teachings of today the original Pope is not taking into consideration by a local Pastor or priest the the second the third the fifth the tenth Pope the leaders of the religion Martin Luther any one one of these people their beliefs are not taken into consideration by anybody that's speaking to the Christian people today so where do the Christian leaders get their information simple they make it up they make it up sometimes they'll actually watch me and other rabbis to get some new material and pretend like they came up with it I have a few of them that I get uh caught them a few times looking and saying certain things that they said even ask for this information they pretend to be Jewish point being is there they don't have a tradition they have a speaking ability that's it and you think it's any different than Islam same exact thing perhaps it's not as obnoxious as Christianity is at times but needless to say it's the same thing your your average that's a leading that's that's telling people to uh to follow Islam to follow Muhammad alhamdulillah and all the good stuff fine where'd you get this information from which Sage do you hear them mentioning generally speaking you never hear them mention a single Sage you have them tell you what certain verses in the Quran say who told you that this is what it says who told you that this is what it means what I understand it meaning they don't see that there's a difference between them today and the people that were closer to the foundation of their religion 1400 years ago now any normal person would obviously agree that if I lived next door to Moses himself certainly I am guaranteed to know more about what he said and what he taught than anybody else in the world today why I live next to him I went to his classes I was there Mount Sinai so of course I know more than anybody else that's not there that wasn't there now if I lived two or three generations after Moses certainly I wouldn't know more than the people that lived next door to him but I still would know more than the people that live that lived five generations after me why I was closer to the source anybody played the the game telephone things change over time and obviously the closer you are to the source the uh the the more you know and even more so the more details you have now when you have Christianity and Islam simply disregard any wise person that they had any leader that they have or most leaders at least throughout the last 50 1400 to 2000 years respectively then what you end up having is that whoever wants to be a leader in Islam all he needs to know is either how to read the Quran or simply how to listen to YouTube videos of somebody else that read the Quran and then tell people what he thinks about it that's it you don't need anything else because you could simply make up whatever you wanted to say that's not possible in Judaism these types of things are not possible in Judaism so this is the beauty of Judaism is that it's not only true because we say it's true it's true because it's verifiable to the point where you cannot challenge it the more you know the more you realize there is no other truth there is no other truth other than Torah and this is something that all religions in fact depend on while they're rejecting it which actually highlights their ignorance [Music]
