Echoes of a Shofar

[allisonraty]

Incredible!!!

[Jerusalim997]

Sound of Shofar will never be silenced!

[reginaDexant]

Dare to be a Daniel.

[renayitz]

I viewed the shofar and the list of yearly blowers. They are displayed at the Etzel Museum situated along the beach in southern Tel Aviv near Jaffa. Here is the link to its website: gal-ed.co.il/etzel/

[kemathenga]

This video is so, So, SO, SOOOO encouraging. I'm telling everybody I see about it. It seems such a trifle to others to blow a horn at an ancient piece of wall, but the way that man when he's telling about coming back to Jerusalem as a soldier "let's go to the Kotel". I mean, it's the only thing left from the time 2000 years ago, the temple, and it's still THERE and so are the Jewish people. And it's because of many, many seemingly "trifles" that they are.

[AbuAvital]

This is why Jews should never entrust the sacred places to others.

[BCgrad07]

Very moving.Awesome.Powerful.

[gtamir613]

Let's read some posts on NakedBison's Youtube Site: - "So, I see you're still going on videos related to politics, and twisting the words of those who don't believe the same as you, huh? Seriously man, get a life." - "Thank you for your support of Jews for Jesus!" - "nakedBison69 is a mentally retarded jew who lives in the mental asylum" - "If you can't think of anything more intelligent to say than this, keep your thoughts to yourself." ++ Case closed ++

[gtamir613]

I am very sorry that there are people who are cluttering up this wonderful and important piece of our history with hatred and distorted arguments. May the strength of the people who had the courage to do what they knew was right in their hearts pass down to those who continue to fight for their religious freedoms in our homeland.

[nakedBison69]

gtamir613 is cluttering up this wonderful and important piece of our history with hatred and distorted arguments. gtamir is a coward, does not know right from wrong, has no heart, and fights against religious people having any freedoms in their own Jewish homeland of Israel

[gtamir613]

The group is very respectful of other traditions and they pray in a very low profile until the ultra-orthodox hoodlums start calling them Nazis and throwing chairs at them (from the men's side of course). Unfortunately, compromise does work in two directions.

This concludes our civics lesson for the day.

[nakedBison69]

gtamir613 the ultra-secular Leftist hoodlum has no respect for traditional Orthodox Jews, calling them nazis and throwing chairs at them (from Obama's henchmen, of course). unfortunately, secular Leftist obamaniacs lke gTamir613 is not willing to compromise. this concludes gTamir's extreme intolerance against his own Jewish people, for the day

[gtamir613]

@nakedBison69 What I said - if you had paid attention - was that it was the Ultra-Orthodox who call the Women of the Wall Nazis and throw chairs at the Women of the Wall. Do you think that this is behavior that commands respect? If so, that's your problem.

[nakedBison69]

gtamir613 never pays attention. gtamir the ultra-Leftist calls traditoinal, Orthodox Jews nazis, throwing chairs at them. gtamir's behavior deserves no respect. gtamir has problems

[gtamir613]

@nakedBison69 Man, you're getting crazier by the post. Maybe it's the Jerusalem Syndrome or something? Not only do you not know me or what I believe in, but you don't know how ridiculous you sound - or do you and are you just making a joke out of Torah and respect for others. One would call that hilul hashem. You are showing the World how fanatical Jews can be and for that I am sorry - Please do not think that most Jews are like this people - they are not (thank G-d).

[nakedBison69]

gtamir613 is getting crazier by the post. maybe it is the self-hating Jewish syndrome. or something. gTamir does not even realize how ridiculous he sounds, making a joke out of the Torah as he disrespects others. gTamir desecrates G-d's Name. gTamir is sohwing the world how fanatical the socialist obamaniacs can be and for that gTamir needs to be sorry. most Jews, thank G-d, are not like gTamir

[gtamir613]

@nakedBison69 Nice try but nobody buys your story. Between you and Ahmadinejad, I'm not sure who is more nuts. You probably won't answer it but can you explain how I am making a joke out of the Torah and how I am a self-hating Jew - this I gotta hear. I especially like the part about the socialist Obamaniacs (I voted for McCaine). You would be funny if you weren't so dangerous for Israel's future.

[nakedBison69]

nobody buys gtamir613's story. gtamir is more nuts than his hero, ahmadiniNutJob. gtamir the self-hating Jew makes a joke out of the Torah. gtamir hears nothing. gtamir the socialist obmaniac is the Chairman of the Board of the group known as Jews for Obama. gtamir is so dangerous to Israeli's future

[gtamir613]

@nakedBison69 Interesting, someone who claims to be a "Torah Jew" is using his computer on Shabbat. Can you spell H-Y-P-O-C-R-I-T-E-? Do you think that just by re-stating what I say while changing the names makes your point?

Enough time wasted on this fool....

[nakedBison69]

gtamir613 does not know how to spell anything, but sure is a socialist obamaniac HYPOCRITE. gtamir has no points to make. gtamir the fool is a waste of time...

[gtamir613]

@nakedBison69 Bla Bla Bla - keep digging your hole then please crawl in and leave humanity alone.

[nakedBison69]

gtamir613 the self-hating Jew keeps digging his own hole to crawl into. gtamir the self-hating Jew needs to leave Torah Jews alone

[gtamir613]

@nakedBison69 Dig Dig Dig but there's no way out - Self-Hating Jew, say what? sounds like this Bison has his own complex with his faith that he has to put others' down. Such a shame....Such a shame but whose to blame????

[nakedBison69]

gtamir613 has dug dug dug and now there is no way out for that self-hating Jew. gtamir has his own complex with his obamunism so he puts other people down. such a shame that gtamir is to blame

[gtamir613]

@nakedBison69 Same ole same ole - still don't know why this person is so obsessed with Obama though - pretty weird. I mean, what does Obama have to do with Women being arrested at the Kotel for praying?  To the un-initiated out there, this is the kind of mentality we have to deal with here in Israel. It is a shame what sometimes happens to religion - we see it in Islam with Taliban and in Judaism too. Hard to be sympathetic but one has to if only to pity those who hide in their darkness...

[nakedBison69]

gtamir613 is so obsessed with hating religious Jews. pretty weird. i mean, does gtamir have nothing better to do with his time than to hate religious Jews? and why does gtamir insist on spreading lies about women not being allowed to pray at the Kotel, does he admire Joseph Goebels? to the uninitiated out there, this is the kind of intolerance that Torah Jews have to deal with in Israel. It is a shame that self-hating Jews admire islamofascists and the taliban, too, hiding in their darkness

[gtamir613]

@nakedBison69 Don't you know how stupid you sound? There is no arguing with people like you because you either do not listen to what I am saying or are just being an idiot who thinks they are being cute or clever or funny. All this talk about Nazi propaganda and hating religious Jews - where are you getting that from - maybe your own self-hatred or insecurity? Who knows? At this point you have embarrassed yourself and made a mockery of this wonderful site so just leave already.

[nakedBison69]

gtamir613 is too stupid to know how stupid he sounds. gtamir never listens. gtamir is just being an idiot. gtamir spreads nazi propaganda and hates religious Jews. gtamir is filled with self-hatred and insecurity. gtamir knows nothing. gtamir has embarrassed himself, making a mockery and so gtamir needs to leave already

[ninuxy]

nakedBison69 is too stupid to know how stupid he sounds. nakedBison69 never listens. nakedBison69 is just being an idiot. nakedBison69 spreads nazi propaganda and hates atheists. nakedBison69is filled with self-hatred and insecurity. nakedBison69 knows nothing. nakedBison69 has embarrassed himself, making a mockery and so nakedBison69 needs to leave already

[gtamir613]

While women are allowed to come into the Kotel on their side, they are required to observe the ultra-orthodox rules that will not allow them to pray in their own tradition if that tradition includes reading, or even carrying a Torah or wearing a talit as a talit is traditionally worn (they do allow them to wear it like a scarf wrapped around their necks - isn't that special?).

[nakedBison69]

gtamir613 wants to force Orthodox Jews to follow his ultra-Leftist rules, not allowing them to pray in their own tradition if that tradition includes following Torah law

[gtamir613]

@nakedBison69 I want to what? First or all, I am an Israeli and thousands of other Israelis - many sabras - have the same traditions. Second, why would I want Orthodox Jews to do what I do? My argument is that all Jews should be able to practice their traditions and that in a place like the Kotel which is NOT an Orthodox synagogue but a courtyard outside the walls of the Temple that is holy to ALL Jews, EVERYONE should respect each other's traditions - even ultra-right ones.

[nakedBison69]

gtamir613 wants the Kotel to be the headquarters for gay homo men like him and for women to gett abortions. gTamir the ultra-leftist is at war with G-d and His Torah. gtamir has no respect whatsoever for G-d's Torah

[gtamir613]

The government of Israel has placed one person - in this case an Ultra-Orthodox rabbi - in control over the Kotel, which is a public space for Jews all over the World and in Israel. It is not nor has it ever been a private synagogue.

[nakedBison69]

the Kotel is indeed an outdoor Orthodox Jewish synagogue

[gtamir613]

Let me try again to explain what civil rights are. In America - and hopefully someday in Israel - one has the right to practice one's religion without government interference. This is enshrined in the Constitution (hence it's a civil right) which America has and hopefully someday, so too will Israel.

[nakedBison69]

Israel is NOT the 51st state of the United States

[gtamir613]

@nakedBison69 So go live in Borough Park or Monsey if you want to create another shtetle. Israel has no need for this. Israel is a democracy where freedom of religion is respected and should be guaranteed. People who do not show respect to the traditions of others do not deserve respect. Respect, unlike civil or religious rights and freedoms must be earned.

[nakedBison69]

gtamir613 needs to go live in North Korea if he wants another socialist obamanic ghetto. Israel has no need for gTamir, who has no respect for G-d's Torah. gTamir deserves no respect. gtamir has earned every decent person's contempt

[gtamir613]

to Nakedbison69 - not insulting Orthodox Judaism but criticizing religious coercion and promoting civil rights and freedom of religion. Also pointing out the irony that at the same place separated by 60 years, people are arrested for religious expression - it is that simple but I guess Bison don't inderstand that.

[nakedBison69]

this has absolutely nothing to do with coercion or civil rights.  women have just as much access to the Western Wall as do men. gtamir refuses to understand that

[faiylaed]

very important film. This is our situation without our land.British antisemite do not change. That proofs that the right thing to do is to be a proud jew in his country without any foreign mandate.

Love this video

[francine1836]

When you say "you can daven at the kotel" I assume you mean that men can daven at the kotel. Women have to remain behind a separation wall and there is a limit to what they can do.

Example:they can be arrested for carrying a Torah,

[nakedBison69]

actually, women have just as much access to the western wall as do men. then again, i would not want to confuse a shitler-loving antisemite like francine1836 with the facts

[gtamir613]

@nakedBison69 I wish you were correct. Go there on a rosh hodesh and watch them harass women who want to pray in their tradition - one shared by 85% of World's practicing Jews.

[nakedBison69]

you are not being honest here. what is not being allowed is fake Judaism posing as authentic Judaism. non-orthodox versions of Judaism is simply NOT Judaism

[gtamir613]

@nakedBison69 Whose not being honest? Who is being arrogant? Self-righteous? To call the way 85-per-cent of the World's pray not Judaism? Women of the Wall are brave Jewish women who have only the highest regard for Jewish Law and practice - none of which is being broken here. God will bless them and curse those who disparage them.

[nakedBison69]

gtamir613 the dishonest, arrogant, self-righteous ignoramous knows nothing about Torah-true Judaism. gTamir613 has no regard for Jewish law and practice, all of which would be broken here by him. G-d blesses Torah Jews and curses gTamir613

[gtamir613]

@nakedBison69 If Conservative Judaism - which is based on Halacha - is NOT Judaism - then what is it? More precisely, what about it is NOT Judaism? Because women are allowed to take on the time-bound mitzvot? FYI, women are not "obligated" to but there is nothing that prevents them. You obviously have a lot to learn about Masorti Traditions which is understandable.

[nakedBison69]

gtamir613 and his Leftist Judaism is a complete and total fraud. more precisely, it is NOT Judaism. putting "obligated" in "quotes" adds absolutely "nothing" to gTamir's "arguments" or lack of them. nothing prevents gTamir from turning against G-d's Torah. gTamir obviously has a lot to learn, as he understands nothing

[lakeeriejew]

@francine1836

Women can get as close to the Kosel as men can. It's divided down the middle.

Women will not get arrested for carrying a Torah.

[ykayman]

a good friend of mine arrested in 2006 by the Israeli police for blowing the shofar at the kotel

we have lost our way

see israel national news article from 2006

[mk181818]

British did a lot of horrible things to the world, and to Jews in particular. Bravo Israel!

Bravo Shofar trumpeters!

[rlcohen36]

Wow, we’ve certainly come a long way! Back then, it was the British occupation that prevented us from exercising our religious rights at the Kotel. Now we have a Jewish government that prevents Jewish women from sounding the Shofar, carrying a Torah and reading aloud from the Torah at the Kotel. Once it was British tyranny that Zionism and the Yishuv needed to overcome. Now it’s the tyranny of the ultra-Orthodox and their camp-followers. Progress indeed!

[nakedBison69]

rlcohen36 uses any opportunity he can to put down those who carefully follow Jewish law that can trace itself all the way back to Moses on Mount Sinai

[renayitz]

@rlcohen36 Your arguments are out of proportion and show a lack of historical and religious perspective. How dare you compare the rules of rabbis and the Israeli government to the prohibitions enforced by the nonhumanitarian Moslem rulers of the Temple Mount, who would argue that you have no religious or historical connection to the Temple Mount, Jerusalem and all of Israel.

Progress has nothing to do with the Kotel and the Temple Mount. History and tradition is everything.

[sunnydz7]

This is a beautiful yet sad story.i love the Jewish,Hebrew people.

i love Israel.

[ofri75]

Thank God we have Israel today!!!

British hypocrites preach Israel about morals, freedom, occupaiton, but we now see that only 60 years ago, when they occupied in brutality other nations, they didn't even allow them to have freedom of religion!!!

[gtamir613]

It's a shame that this great country has gotten to the point where a woman gets arrested for carrying a Torah at the Kotel.

[nakedBison69]

it is a shame that gtamir613 has gotten to the point where he cannot stop himself from using any excuse he can to insult traditional, Orthodox Judaism

[gtamir613]

What a wonderful story! I hope I find many more to help celebrate Yom Kippur especially because it also falls on my birthday this year. Despite the fact I am a Christian I feel especially blessed learning the roots of my wonderful, positive religion. Jews have such a wonderful heritage and of course are proud of it. It shines in the eyes of these men.

[Henoch2006]

[eSpectionportal]

Beautiful film. I have often contemplated the historic torrent of anti-Israel speech and acts that have emanated from Britain and I think I finally figured it out: Other than the United States in 1776, I believe that the Jews of Palestine are the only former British possession to forcibly kick the British out. All of their other colonies, I believe, gained their independence when it was willingly granted by Britain. The Israelis booted them into the sea - sour grapes. G'mar Chatima Tova to all.

[renayitz]

@eSpectionportal The War of Independence of the 13 colonies comes to mind. Those colonies who declared their independence from Britain against the will of the Empire are still Israel's most powerful allies, Obama and Mrs. Clinton notwithstanding.

India, too, was a thorn in the side of the empire, and the Islamic area that became Pakistan is still a hotbed of trouble, similar to the Arabs fomenting trouble for Israel.

[ShoshiAhuva]

@globe255, the video says that blowing the shofar would "offend the Arab population".

[nakedBison69]

Thank you so much for posting this video. Watching this naturally brought tears to my eyes, yet gave me much needed laughter even more. What a fantastic video. What heroes these people are. I sit here in complete awe of them. As long as we have such courageous people among us Jews, all the antisemitism in the world can never truly defeat us.

A moving video. Now, if only we had complete religious freedom at the Kotel in our own time: just as these young men risked arrest to give voice to their religious longings in the blowing of the shofar, so do the Women of the Wall risk arrest to assert their right to pray at the Kotel. Just as the British forbid the shofar blowing to appease those against a Jewish presence in Jerusalem, some women are prevented from reading Torah and singing - to appease one sect of Jews.

[nakedBison69]

that is such complete and total nonsense. women have just as much access to the Western Wall as do men. stop finding pathetic excuses to attack my Jewish people

[YardleyFiske]

@nakedBison69

You may want to Google "Women of the Wall."

[nakedBison69]

why, so I can watch a bunch of femiNazis insult religious Jews?

[YardleyFiske]

@nakedBison69

No, so you can accept that half the Jewish population is being discrimanted against by the Ultra Ortodox Nazis

[renayitz]

@YardleyFiske Your comment is ridiculous and shows a lack of knowledge of both Jews and Nazis. Plus, you don't even understand what discrimination means.

[nakedBison69]

that is because yardleyFiske is a shitler-loving antisemite, which means he is a stupid brainless idiotic moron

[renayitz]

@YardleyFiske Your ignorance is showing. You don't even know the meaning of the words "discriminate" and "Nazi." The Ultra Orthodox were killed by Nazi guns and killed in concentration camps. What special treatment do the Ultra Orthodox get today?

Many of the men do not serve in the Israeli forces, because they get exemptions. Otherwise, the Ultra Orthodox , mostly poor folk, live in their private communities with rules that no one else has to follow.

[nakedBison69]

that is because yardleyFiske is a shitler-loving antisemite, which means he is a stupid brainless idiotic moron

[nakedBison69]

the only one doing any discriminating on here is yardleyFiske the shitler-loving, gay antisemite who looks for any excuse to hate the Jews

[renayitz]

@kaystreetgirl There is no comparison and no relation between the prohibitions of the British or the Moslem rulers of the Temple Mount , to the halachic rulings of the rabbis in charge of the Kotel. You can still daven at the Kotel. You cannot daven on the Temple Mount.

[TruthCeeker333]

[km6cg]

It's my honor to have watched this video and learned of this history. Everybody who blows or hears the Shofar, in freedom and peace, owes a debt of gratitude to these men who risked their freedom (and worse) to carry on our holy traditions. Everybody who blows the shofar for a congregation, anywhere, stands with these men as brothers, and should consider themselves privileged. I know that I do.

[aTime4UandMe]

May Israel's flag wave till eternity! ( King David's territory must belong to Jews forever).

[morahshira]

Now @NPCindy & others: In college, I spent a year on kibbutz on a hilltop near Jerusalem. Below us was a friendly Arab village, Abu Ghosh. Look them up. They aided Israel in the War of Independence. Every evening, their music wafted up the hill, filling our hearts. They even invited us to a wedding. They were beautiful people & to this day, the sound of Arab music & prayer brings back sweet memories. Good & Evil exist in every religion & culture. Don't be so quick to judge. (PS - I am Jewish.)

[morahshira]

Very moving video. I didn't realize that this had gone on. We are so fortunate to have been able to hear the story of these men while they are still alive to share it with us. I'm so happy that they had the chance to go back to the Kotel together to blow the shofar again.

[lakeeriejew]

These Jewish heroes did not suffer from the Eastern European "Persecution Disease" that so many of their contemporaries did.

God bless them. They are the true "Liberated Jews".

[renayitz]

@lakeeriejew According to their Hebrew accents, these particular interviewees were not from Eastern Europe for the most part, if at all. There were thousands of European Jews who were equally brave. Please do not blame the victims of the cruel gun-toting Nazis for the systematic, legalized murder of European Jews.

[ForgottenEasternJews]

@renayitz Don't forget the middle eastern Jews as well. They have been a central part of Israel. Until 1990, 70% of Israeli Jews were Sephardic (middle eastern) Jews. Jews from Syria. Iraq, Morocco, Egypt, Iran, Yemen etc.

But unfortunately, they are least talked about.

[renayitz]

@ForgottenEasternJews Read my comment again. I wrote that the interviewees were not European. What does that mean, then? It means that they were from Sephardic tradition. By the same token, it is ridiculous to say that European Jews had some disease of imagined victimhood, as lakeeriejew implied. They were powerless against the very real Nazi machine and the cultural anti-semitism of the World War II era.

[ForgottenEasternJews]

@renayitz No you said the interviewees were not "Eastern European". I don't believe that European Jews had the "victimhood" approach. They were as brave as the Sephardic Jews. My point is, most of the time it's about ashkanazi jews. I understand that 80% of jews are ashkanazi. But hey, during 1100 AD 97% of Jews were Sephardic. Mid 1700s, Sephardic Jews were about 70% of total world jewish population. Now they are about 20%. Due to bad living condition in muslim world.

[ForgottenEasternJews]

@renayitz I'm a Sephardic Jew and I live in mid US. People don't believe that I'm a Jew when I say to them. There are no Sephardic shuls except east and west coasts. I go to an ashkanazi shul. Here, the image of a "Jew" is white and/or blonde. It's a fact.

[willy92507]

@ForgottenEasternJews Now we know that the Jews were from the middle east, desert middle east, not europe east

[willy92507]

@ForgottenEasternJews Althoug, I must say, were scattered among the nations for generations, thus that is what has become of the Jews, but I know there are Sephardic Jews

[lakeeriejew]

@renayitz

They either originated from Eastern Europe or from Arab lands. These interviews are taking place 60 years after those events so their accents are not a good indicator of their origin.

The point simply as that they had a mindset of "Liberation, freedom self- assertion". Mentally, they refused to submit to the anti-Semitic occupying force. It's the mindset of the Irgun that successfully drove the British out by striking back at them with the same aggression that the British dealt them

As far as i understand it, you were not allowed to blow the shofar because it could escalate a kind of conflict or simply create it.

When you hear the shofar this year take a moment to reflect what it was like to live at a time when such a simple Jewish action could not be taken for granted.

And if you think I am talking about way-back-when somewhere "Beyond the Pale" let me remind you that blowing the shofar in our own homeland, the Land of Israel, was for many years forbidden.

[PamsPersonalTours]

Next time you think that Israel should be prepared to "make painful concessions for peace" just remember what it was like when those "partners for peace" were in charge! From 1948 to 1967 the holiest place for Jews did not reverberate to the sound of the shofar at the culmination of Yom Kippur.
