For Zions Sake / Paul Wilbur Concert 2007

[benzion888]

cool

[RakdanimShelAdonai]

The song is called Rokdim Yechifim, and it is by Yehuda Poliker. It is an Israeli Folk Dance created in 1993 by Shmulik Gov-Ari, and is very common among Messianic dancers as well. When danced by Messianic dancers, their is commonly a lot of switching in the middle, clapping, and extra turns, as seem here (the choreography in this video is adapted from Shmulik's), but when danced by jews or Israelis, it is more common to hold hands the entire dance, and not clap or turn.

[RakdanimShelAdonai]

@RakdanimShelAdonai I hope that information was helpful for you guys. You can buy the song or a video of the Israeli method of doing the dance at rokdim .co.il/rikudim/f_rikud.asp?rik­udId=7817&mode=info

It's not the same version of the song as is in this video though. I have never heard this version of the song before.

[hummbug1]

[Ammoroso29]

Where Can I Find that music...? What's the name?

[xofnangel]

Beautiful, So anointed

[rjgirly]

Actually, the name of this song is Rok Diem! We do a dance to this song, but yours is so much cooler. Looks so fun!

[jblcva]

Here is a truth, forgotten by most. All Jews are

Israeli's but not all Israeli's are Jews. I have

the Israel's Hope cassette put on CD its one

of my favorites.

[peteliuz79]

That's right. Jews are from the tribe of Judah. Lost tribes were part of the state of Northern Israel, Judah was the state of the Southern part of Holy Land.

[Paulancar]

JESUSCHRIST is the way, the truth, and the Life. Worthy is the LAMB, JESUSCHRIST is The Juda LION.  The Mesiah.

[armandocalderonmx]

Amen !

[someleili]

amen.

[Yaronice7]

for ever and ever He is the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords...

[ShabahSaz02]

Amen! GOD BLESS ISRAEL! GOD BLESS THOSE WHO RESPECT HIS NAME! ALL THE GLORY BELONGS TO OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST. :D ^_^

[ditte3]

Wonderful.

[niceguy33]

Wow, very well done!

[WillJStudio]

Those drums look like big bodhrans...who let the Irish in? Anyhow, well done. Praise YHVH.

[anelem2]

Hi just wanted you to know I'm on this team and the drums are goat skin hand drums made in the middle east and were bought on our last trip to Israel =)

[wahwahkaboom]

[proudinfidel777]

Baruch Hashem! Y'eshua is King of Kings!

Beshem Y'shua Hamashiach sar shalom.

[madefromthebeststuff]

wow! this is inspirational! I wish there was more quality, artistic dancing/choreography out there like this! Kol HaKavod!

[koolkat33746]

Awesome is the Lord our God!!This song and dance is so beautiful,it made my spirit want to leap for the joy of the Lord is strongly connected to this video.

[aetherdream]

Very nice it was a joy to watch. I noticed alot of different cultural influences in it which made it (atleast to me) feel more world encompassing as if all are being called back into the celebration of the lord.

[tyrison]

Whoops, dang. I wish there was and edit button...

It's weird, actually recognizing people from that. ;-)

[tyrison]

Whoa, you were there too? Sweeeeet; I was there and it was awesome.

[amandadulac]

I was moved by this prestntation of Worship. Wow! Praise GOD!

[lkphi]

i tried to find the song or artist of rokdim yechelim and nothingcomes up can anyone help guide me?

[sidefall]

The title of the music is most commonly written as Rachdu Yechefim and is by an Israeli musician called Yehuda Poliker.

[sidefall]

Sorry, my bad, Rakdu Yechefim is the most usual spelling. You'll sometimes see it given as Rokdim Yechefim. It means "dancing barefoot" or "they danced barefoot", by the way.

[mjwynne01]

Wow! Now thats Davidic Worship!

[lkphi]

where did you get the worship tools and what are they called

[mnithyapriya]

Hi lkphi...

I am an South Indian-Tamilian, the tool used here is called "kol" in tamil , this dance is called koalaatam in our tradition...its a very old traditional folk dance still practised in rural villages during local festivals..Please search "dance forms of tamilnadu" in wikipedia..hope I answered your question...God Bless!!

[anelem2]

Hi, I'm a dancer on this Davidic Worship team

the dance is not a south Indian dance. This dance is a traditional Israeli Dance that was re-choreographed using modern Israeli steps. We use 24 inch hand drums and normal drum sticks for this dance. The choreographer used the 4 drums to represent the "four winds"in the bible and the sticks from the bible verse in Ezekiel 37. Just thought you should know =)

[mnithyapriya]

Oh really..thank you very much for the info....our kollattam is very much similar...we used to call this as kol...You guys had done an awesome job, much appreciated...anyways thank you very much for the info

[mnithyapriya]

hi anelem2, please google "dance forms of tamilnadu" in wikipedia, i wished to say that this davidic dance is similar to our kollatam...God Bless!!

[lkphi]

tell me more about the message of the song thanks

[anelem2]

Hi, lkphi

In Ezekiel 37:15-23, it talks about 2 sticks of wood. One was to have written on it, "Belonging to Judah and the Israelites associated with him." The second stick of wood was to have, " Ephraim's stick, belonging to Joseph, and all the house of Israel associated with him." written on it. It goes on in verse 17... "Join them together into one stick so that they will become one in your hand. Verses 18-23 go on to describe what those sticks represent. This is where the dance was created!

[lkphi]

what is the name of this song and is there a dvd of the whole concert that can be bought?thanks for getting back on my questions

[anelem2]

Hi lkphi,

I forgot to tell you, For Zion's Sake has another video on you tube under "For His Name's Sake." It's a 3 minute promotional clip that we use to let people know who we are. Check it out! Thanks =)

[lkphi]

you said the name of the music is rokdim yechelim but you din't say who the artist is and the dvd's(for his name sake concert 2007)is this the one you are talking about?Should i buy both or one or the other?what are on the dvd's just music or musicand teaching or what? are there upcoming events posted? THANK YOU sooooo much for answering all my questions

[anelem2]

Hi lkphi,

Our team doesn't know the artist for this music, we were given a cd by someone who made a copy and gave it to us as a gift. Maybe you could google the name and see what you can find. On our website you can by the Paul Wilbur concert series DVD, which has everything we did that weekend. It has no teaching it's all music and dance if you're interested. We do have a schedule of events listed on our web site, but as of now we don't have everything listed, it will be updated in May.

[vbaby89]
