peace on earth, what a concept!... one day Jews, Muslims, Christians, Hindus, Buddhists, and we agnostics will have a choice, whether to continues our petty differences or coexist.. I vote for peace and harmony.. who is with me??
This is my all time favorite matisyahu song, the lyrics are so deep and powerfull, he's got a great message in his music, hopefully more people start listening to him :]
people need to look past the fact that he is hisidic..im conservative and i like him for his music not his message...he sings about israel and ashem because as a hassid thats what's he used to..he sings great music
ismael is the son of abraham the father of muslims & issac the father if hebrews and christians, god sprang water in the dessert so ismael my live and become a great nation too. faro let my people go ,u forgot to love without it u cannot see him
This music is religious and if you deny that you are foolish. Im a hassid and honestly all we ever think about is god and thats what this song is about. God will lead us water and feed our souls.
@yakeo653 Amen brother...im a gentile but i am fully dedicated to Hashem n i love am yisrael! i made a tzitzit for myself to remind me of Hashem n i keep shabbat. by the way shabbat shalom freind. and yes all jews ever think about is the father and his mercy and compassion i completely agree with this n i completely agree that Matithyahus message is all about G-d....Halleluyah!
@kaleb27100 well hes not exactly hebrew lol jewish brother i supose...he sings wisdom and joy of torah tho i have great admiration for someone like that
He sings for the freedom of all people! and Also the struggle and resiliance of your people! his messages are one of hope, inspiration, and love. I'm not jewish, I'm christian, and i love his music cause it's from the heart, and by the heart, we will all be judged (i pray) God Bless!
This song is talking about how if you don't have God in your life, it is like you not having water in your diet.
The human body would die from thirst without water, our souls die if we don't have God.
God is like water in essence, he is the living spirit within us that is good and all encompassing positive energy.
To me to find God, honestly, look for the smallest details in life, like for me that would be simple as the sun hitting the trees listening to wind on a spring afternoon. Peace.
It's a metaphor, it's right no matter how you interpret it, but it's more about the situation of 'Got No Water' Arbiter0000Tactical describes it better
That is the problem with bigots, religious, fanaticals wherever they come from, they do not separate ART from race, culture or social rank. Matisyahu is a great Reggae Singer and the lyrics are just fine for anyone who believes in ONE GOD. That's it!
I'm Muslim and even I think Matisyahu is cool. I was listening to him before I converted and I still blast his tunes in my car. I got nothing for respect for him.
@plenty2say he respects people like you also. Religion should only be about peace, love, respect, happiness.... there is good and bad within all religions. Peace to you and peace to the middle east. There is a solution and it involves mutual peace and respect.
If everyone thought like Matsyahu I think the world as we know t would actually be a nice place to live wthout having to worry about watching our backs 24-7
You're right. It's the money out there ruining these decent ideals that most of the different peoples share. It's money ruining this place...Money and pride are what the devil wants us to hold close. I say bullshit and fuck you satan! Shove your money up your ass
Thats what im saying =] ive said it on other matisyahu videos and any vid where people go on about what they think rather then focusing on what they looked up to see and hear.
seriously, i agree, this just proves the mentality of our nation, these people prove ignorance and stupidity is running out of control. Just like it or don't. not everything has to be this big "issue " people acting like they really know what the hell they are talking about. People should igknowledge differences in people and just learn about it, not use it as a tool of hate. people are stupid.
sweet song though
first album called" arise"
original version of king without crown is real dope
ever talk to an athiest about anything religious and it becomes a fight about how we're stupid and how they're right... i'd respect athiests more if they weren't so assertive about their "beliefs"
funny how that makes no sense whatsoever let me guess heaven and hell are justtoo ridiculous for ya well most religions dont believe in it so waiting for the otherreasons when someone tells ya ghandi will not be in paradise cause hes hindu thats ridiculous as a jewish man with nuddin but goyim friends i refuse to believe my friends wont be there for meshiach also we believe if ya do something good for the world ya will rejoice even atheists if they are good people it dont matter what they think
i enjoyed the discussion about the text very much as a catholic christ.
i have long lost connection to church and all these pointless institutions. whoever said "It's not about religion, it's about the relationship between god and men" was absolutely right.
we shouldn't cling to texts who could be wrong or true. everyone should follow their own beliefs because in the end GOD will decide who did ok and who didn't. what- or whoever god might be.
as a jew I can never tell someone that waht they believe in is wrong so in turn I believe =that meshiach comes with revelation of g-d and ...also...... many names for one god ..Matisyahu : dispatch the troops
Kudos for a great song. A Thumbs Down for every post trying to disparage Hashem's holy Word.
This ain't debate club, folks. Trolling songs you don't like is bad enough, but with religious music? Do they actually think they're going to accomplish something in so doing?
man what the fuck.. FUCK OFF... why keeping on this discuss about religion? You guys are so stupid to get in a jew song and write about christ..what for? FIGHT? Learn to believe in yours..and let us believe in ours... HASHEM ECHAD...
Remember, it's just us. Until the color of a man's skin is no more significant than the color of his eyes, there will be war. Bob was right.... Matis is just shouting his love and peace out loud so everyone can hear. Energy spreads farther than you think.
to gbjew- Dont you know that ancient Jews call thier father by name? You dont know that tradition? AvRam AvYaakov? Papa Smith that is a family name! Im not bringing my Christian ideas in here it's so happen that ia am a follower of a Jewish Rabbi whos sham is Yashuah Ha Netzaree...
MATISYAHU la raja, subtitulen este tema x q aca en sudamerica no caxo q dice, pero me encanta la cancion es muy parecido al BOB MARLEY esa es la magia de la musica x ultimo "no te mueras nunca MATIS"
Ya dije que es duro por dentro, un vacio galus (exilio) corta como un cuchillo.
Internalizar, las vibraciones de la Torah, atados a sentirnos bien.
Un huracan de elogios desde abajo hacia arriba. Tomar vuelo en el cielo, tener alas como una paloma. Volamos hacia shamayim (cielo), donde los angeles llaman al amor, y la gloria de Hashem (Dios) queda como un guante.
Hashem gobierna el mundo e Israel es su esposa, te amo mi D'os con todo mi corazon, mi alma y mi voluntad. Y cuando te siento a mi lado estoy volando como una cometa. Abres mis ojos y me das vision, super energizado y cada dia me das luz. He visto las maneras en que el mundo se intoxica con orgullo, joven, no ves que las drigas impurifican tu mente?
Cuando Israel dejo a Mitzrayim cuatro quintos fueron dejados atras. Si no tienes agua como sobreviviras?
Las raices te llevan a los manantiales para que puedas seguir vivo. El faraon aclamo ser un D'os y aclamo hacer el Nilo, un cocodrilo puede sonreir y mostrar sus dientes,podras ver belleza brillando externamente, pero esa es la historia de grecia. Y por dentro america sangra, Israel no te leventaras de tus rodillas? Solo yace disfrazada, la verdad de la Torah, no te daras cuenta? Dada a los humildes en el monte Sinai.
(Oye Israel, el señor es nuetro D'os el señor es uno)
El mundo podria volverse polvo, somos solo nosotros. No son 2 es 1. El camino del medio llamado verdad. Torah, alivias mi cerebro amoratado y abres los caminos para la verdad de D'os. Y moverse hacia arriba en un despertar desde abajo hasta que los secretos comiencen a drenar; no te adormites, es pura luz, el mas alto nos quiere vivos. Cual es la prueba? Tenemos vida.
La filosofial de Jabad es el mas profundo manantial, ganando conocimiento de D'os mientras ganas dinero. Llenate con la luz de su majestad, en este mundo de separacion, es la unica manera de ser. Es tiempo de partir, pero no de huir, solo alejarnos suavemente.
dude, i dont believe in god, but ever since i was 10 matisyahu has gived into my head the messagev to be true to yourself, to respect others, that's what i believe in, everyone can hear matiyahu's music either if you are muslim, jewish or christian...
I am a semite.. however not jewish (have some jewish blood but not much).. but I still love his words regardless. forget about the arab jewish relations now.. I love his music and I love God.. praise be to him.. thank God for his message..
look i also really love smoking weed but even more important then herb is my love for Judaism i am a observant jew and this music inspires me this music and weed together build many roads of happiness regarding being high. but being hi is for only like a few hours. religion is a part of life. weed is a habit. so im saying u can balance thins in life and still smoke herb, and still hold on to ur faith. but if its not ur thing than DONT smoke it.
my matisyahu story....well there is no story. he was on tour with 311 but only started with the tour a day after the tour was in my town. let down for sure. i think he will be around for a long while and im sure i will get my chance. every day i pray and hope
I saw him in Cinci in 2005 and he blew me away. Then for some strange reason the last couple of years his music got to be boring and not so inventive. I guess a better word is he got weak on us. Commercial success seems to ruin creativity.
Why? All he does in his songs is give thanks and praises to Hashem. Not saying it's a bad thing, just truly curious. There's tons of modern reggae out there.
look im jewish by birth but i am an atheist. the message is what counts i love his music. it doesent matter his religion or anybuddy's religion all that matters is teh messege. =)
No offense, but that doesn't make any sense orpuz..
I agree that the message is what counts, but if you were right, and there were no G-d, then Matisyahu's message is lies.
What's sad is there is perhaps no more prevalent or true Jewish stereotype than the Jew that turns his back on his heritage, be it by turning on political Israel, changing their name, or simply adopting the ways of the stranger(i.e. ceasing to be a religious Jew).
Baruch Atah/At anyway, and may Hashem show you His truth.
His messege is not onlyabout religion it's about respect one another and unity. But look it doesent bother me that religion exist i just dont bealive in it =). Just look at my dad he's religeous but he never really forced the religion on me cause he want's me to take my own path =)
Aha.. I see your point. Yes, that's all true, but then again, it seems to me if you believe in respecting one another, and living in unity and harmony, then you HAVE maintained SOME of your Jewishness, right? ;)
That's what I've always loved about Judaism. Lies must shout to be heard, for being believed is their power. The truth doesn't care if you believe it or not, because it will be just as true regardless.
Hence, proselytizing is not normally a productive venture.
The thing is those are just universal ideas of one way to make the world a better place, not one idea that spawned only from Judaism. I like religions for those ideas they teach, I do not like religions for the fear of god they teach. He is working with us always and is something we should be grateful for, not something we should fear in order to control our lives and behave properly. We should have enough of him in us to want to act out in christ like ways at all times.
Yes, many of Judaism's great ideas originate with Tanakh.
I.e. Can you find an older civilization on record as requiring literacy of man, woman, and child? (Deu 6).
What is this "Christ"? There is no "Christ" in the Hebrew scriptures, only "Messiah." And if you mean Yeshua (who is called "Jesus"), he lived a perfect life of Torah observance. Those very rules you say "control" us, in reality sets free those who see the truth.
As for "fear" that is an unfortunate translation. "Awe" is better.
Ha-Shem means "The Name". Jews don't say "God" because they feel it's too holy to speak of. So, they use "The Name". That's why he says it.
that sure sounds like fear to me...in the end God is just 3 letters arranged together that put a limiting and physical form on something that should remain ethereal and infinite.
Yes, we do say HaShem, and if we say "G-d" it is without the O.
Yet, it would be over-simplification to call this fear.
Any organizational structure, from a family, to a large company, to the earthly embassy of G-d's people can work on twin fronts of fear and respect. Respect is always preferable, yet there are some without respect, and these work better on fear.
In short, fear is for the young and the convert, who have not developed the respect and trust for G-d to operate another way.
it was over simplification, and for that i appologize.
But, in the end you should follow god out of much more than respect. you should follow him out of love, out of care for your world and all living things, for he is all that you see.
What i see happening in major western religions is their expression of fear in god and his ability to smite us for whatever wrong we do, which is far from the opposite of his teachings in which he states he loves all, even with their faults.
Technically I could then go back even further and show that many of these same ideas are based off egyptian beliefs, but in the end that doesn't matter.
I might not be able to find an older civilization that is literate, but literacy does not equate to a better society. I believe much of the world is literate now than in the beginning of judaism yet we are much worse off in my opinion.
lastly, i'm using christ like as a term, not as a person. Just referring to those who exemplify kindness etc
Of course, one would be foolish to think they can live as they will without fear of consequence from the creator of the universe. He created the world with a word, and your life or death, your livelihood, your eternity are all subject to His whim.
Nonetheless, greater rewards exist for those willing to follow HaShem out of respect (Deu 30).
It doesn't matter how you use Christ. Anything positive you can say of him, you can say of the Torah, for this is where he learned TO exemplify kindness.
I have no fear of consequence...my real world actions have real world consequences, if you can't live up to that reality than you are fearful of all of life.
I am fearful that the collective thoughts of all humanity will bring about an end to our world, but not god himself. It will be our thoughts/actions that fuel the destruction of this planet.
I feel he learned to exemplify those from earlier pagan beliefs that were then translated into the torah, but to each his own.
One of the primary differences between Judaism and Christianity is how we look at justice. Christians expect reward and punishment to come after death. Torah students know better (Deu 30).
The G-d of Israel is both a G-d of Justice AND Mercy.
Yes, He loves all (and thus we should, as His children- Mal 2:10). Be that as it may, sin may not dwell with G-d. Indeed, to this day the word "sin" in Spanish means "without" and a "sin" is any action separating us from Him.

The bible is guidlines to live a pure life. We know nothing till we die and we gain nothing trying to figure out what were not suppose to know yet.

Remember, it's just us. Until the color of a man's skin is no more significant than the color of his eyes, there will be war. Bob was right.... Matis is just shouting his love and peace out loud so everyone can hear. Energy spreads farther than you think.

Sacias mi alma sedienta y llenas mi apetito.
Me ofrezco a ti porque me tratas bien.
Pongo mi confianza en el mundo y el mundo se empequeñece.
Cambio mi confianza hacia ti, es como una noche clara como cristal.
Expandirse en todas las direcciones y lograr que las secciones se unan.
Los rayos de Hashem como una llamarada iluminan el camino de mi vida.
Y en estos dias, espera, ya no hay mas noche.
Alcanzo a mi D'os como rascacielos en la noche.

Ya dije que es duro por dentro, un vacio galus (exilio) corta como un cuchillo.
Internalizar, las vibraciones de la Torah, atados a sentirnos bien.
Un huracan de elogios desde abajo hacia arriba. Tomar vuelo en el cielo, tener alas como una paloma. Volamos hacia shamayim (cielo), donde los angeles llaman al amor, y la gloria de Hashem (Dios) queda como un guante.
XxIkkunaprinsessaxX 3 years ago
Hashem gobierna el mundo e Israel es su esposa, te amo mi D'os con todo mi corazon, mi alma y mi voluntad. Y cuando te siento a mi lado estoy volando como una cometa. Abres mis ojos y me das vision, super energizado y cada dia me das luz. He visto las maneras en que el mundo se intoxica con orgullo, joven, no ves que las drigas impurifican tu mente?
Cuando Israel dejo a Mitzrayim cuatro quintos fueron dejados atras. Si no tienes agua como sobreviviras?

Las raices te llevan a los manantiales para que puedas seguir vivo. El faraon aclamo ser un D'os y aclamo hacer el Nilo, un cocodrilo puede sonreir y mostrar sus dientes,podras ver belleza brillando externamente, pero esa es la historia de grecia. Y por dentro america sangra, Israel no te leventaras de tus rodillas? Solo yace disfrazada, la verdad de la Torah, no te daras cuenta? Dada a los humildes en el monte Sinai.

Shma Y'sroel, Hashem Elokainu, Hashem Echad
(Oye Israel, el señor es nuetro D'os el señor es uno)
El mundo podria volverse polvo, somos solo nosotros. No son 2 es 1. El camino del medio llamado verdad. Torah, alivias mi cerebro amoratado y abres los caminos para la verdad de D'os. Y moverse hacia arriba en un despertar desde abajo hasta que los secretos comiencen a drenar; no te adormites, es pura luz, el mas alto nos quiere vivos. Cual es la prueba? Tenemos vida.

La filosofial de Jabad es el mas profundo manantial, ganando conocimiento de D'os mientras ganas dinero. Llenate con la luz de su majestad, en este mundo de separacion, es la unica manera de ser. Es tiempo de partir, pero no de huir, solo alejarnos suavemente.
Si no tienes agua, como sobreviviras?

People stop focusing on his identity, background, beliefs, or looks.
Focus on his MESSAGE.

look i also really love smoking weed but even more important then herb is my love for Judaism i am a observant jew and this music inspires me this music and weed together build many roads of happiness regarding being high. but being hi is for only like a few hours. religion is a part of life. weed is a habit. so im saying u can balance thins in life and still smoke herb, and still hold on to ur faith. but if its not ur thing than DONT smoke it.

I saw him in Cinci in 2005 and he blew me away. Then for some strange reason the last couple of years his music got to be boring and not so inventive. I guess a better word is he got weak on us. Commercial success seems to ruin creativity.

No offense, but that doesn't make any sense orpuz..
I agree that the message is what counts, but if you were right, and there were no G-d, then Matisyahu's message is lies.
What's sad is there is perhaps no more prevalent or true Jewish stereotype than the Jew that turns his back on his heritage, be it by turning on political Israel, changing their name, or simply adopting the ways of the stranger(i.e. ceasing to be a religious Jew).
Baruch Atah/At anyway, and may Hashem show you His truth.
mobiusthought 3 years ago
His messege is not onlyabout religion it's about respect one another and unity. But look it doesent bother me that religion exist i just dont bealive in it =). Just look at my dad he's religeous but he never really forced the religion on me cause he want's me to take my own path =)
Cheers
orpuz 3 years ago
Aha.. I see your point. Yes, that's all true, but then again, it seems to me if you believe in respecting one another, and living in unity and harmony, then you HAVE maintained SOME of your Jewishness, right? ;)
That's what I've always loved about Judaism. Lies must shout to be heard, for being believed is their power. The truth doesn't care if you believe it or not, because it will be just as true regardless.
Hence, proselytizing is not normally a productive venture.
Shalom, achi!

The thing is those are just universal ideas of one way to make the world a better place, not one idea that spawned only from Judaism. I like religions for those ideas they teach, I do not like religions for the fear of god they teach. He is working with us always and is something we should be grateful for, not something we should fear in order to control our lives and behave properly. We should have enough of him in us to want to act out in christ like ways at all times.
seespizzle 3 years ago
Yes, many of Judaism's great ideas originate with Tanakh.
I.e. Can you find an older civilization on record as requiring literacy of man, woman, and child? (Deu 6).
What is this "Christ"? There is no "Christ" in the Hebrew scriptures, only "Messiah." And if you mean Yeshua (who is called "Jesus"), he lived a perfect life of Torah observance. Those very rules you say "control" us, in reality sets free those who see the truth.
As for "fear" that is an unfortunate translation. "Awe" is better.
mobiusthought 3 years ago
direct quote from jewish man above:
Ha-Shem means "The Name". Jews don't say "God" because they feel it's too holy to speak of. So, they use "The Name". That's why he says it.
that sure sounds like fear to me...in the end God is just 3 letters arranged together that put a limiting and physical form on something that should remain ethereal and infinite.
seespizzle 3 years ago
Yes, we do say HaShem, and if we say "G-d" it is without the O.
Yet, it would be over-simplification to call this fear.
Any organizational structure, from a family, to a large company, to the earthly embassy of G-d's people can work on twin fronts of fear and respect. Respect is always preferable, yet there are some without respect, and these work better on fear.
In short, fear is for the young and the convert, who have not developed the respect and trust for G-d to operate another way.
mobiusthought 3 years ago
it was over simplification, and for that i appologize.
But, in the end you should follow god out of much more than respect. you should follow him out of love, out of care for your world and all living things, for he is all that you see.
What i see happening in major western religions is their expression of fear in god and his ability to smite us for whatever wrong we do, which is far from the opposite of his teachings in which he states he loves all, even with their faults.
seespizzle 3 years ago
Technically I could then go back even further and show that many of these same ideas are based off egyptian beliefs, but in the end that doesn't matter.
I might not be able to find an older civilization that is literate, but literacy does not equate to a better society. I believe much of the world is literate now than in the beginning of judaism yet we are much worse off in my opinion.
lastly, i'm using christ like as a term, not as a person. Just referring to those who exemplify kindness etc
seespizzle 3 years ago
Of course, one would be foolish to think they can live as they will without fear of consequence from the creator of the universe. He created the world with a word, and your life or death, your livelihood, your eternity are all subject to His whim.
Nonetheless, greater rewards exist for those willing to follow HaShem out of respect (Deu 30).
It doesn't matter how you use Christ. Anything positive you can say of him, you can say of the Torah, for this is where he learned TO exemplify kindness.
mobiusthought 3 years ago
I have no fear of consequence...my real world actions have real world consequences, if you can't live up to that reality than you are fearful of all of life.
I am fearful that the collective thoughts of all humanity will bring about an end to our world, but not god himself. It will be our thoughts/actions that fuel the destruction of this planet.
I feel he learned to exemplify those from earlier pagan beliefs that were then translated into the torah, but to each his own.
seespizzle 3 years ago
One of the primary differences between Judaism and Christianity is how we look at justice. Christians expect reward and punishment to come after death. Torah students know better (Deu 30).
The G-d of Israel is both a G-d of Justice AND Mercy.
Yes, He loves all (and thus we should, as His children- Mal 2:10). Be that as it may, sin may not dwell with G-d. Indeed, to this day the word "sin" in Spanish means "without" and a "sin" is any action separating us from Him.
