This is so beautiful it brings tears to my eyes. I am Askenazi but find the Sephardic music more attractive......

Maybe we were all once only Sephardic...

You have unbelievable chutzpah calling yourself "hatorah", preaching a paganistic philosophy in direction opposition to everything the Torah stands for. How dare you promote idol worship on a video of Kol Nidrei, one of the holiest songs in Jewish liturgy on the holiest day of the Jewish year.

[virenetanel]

as an orthodox Jew i can explain thus: it is a paragraph said in the starting of the yom-kippur(day of forgiveness). it is a prayer to g-d to cancel all vows said committed to g-d, for example:ill start learning more Torah(Jewish studies). for the record, it bears no Halachick(call Halacha rules that you must obey as an orthodox Jew) significance. it doesn't mean you can vow anything and back out. there is a Machloket(call it a debate between rabbis)if it is said from now to next,or vice versa.

unbelievably beautiful...

The Sephardic version of Kol Nidre asks absolution from last year's vows; the Ashkenazic version from next years'. There is no evidence of a link between Kol Nidre and the inquisition.

see Jewish Ideas Daily, Oct 7. 2011.

@SAYRO26 you must be a idiot. it was the ROMANS who killed Jesus, Sometimes when your ignorant as you it is better just to keep your mouth shut

@mitchwas That theory dismisses the fact that there were Jewish communities in Europe before the Khazars.  It also ignores that fact that Ashkenazi Jews still share certain genetic markers with Sephardic Jews.

The Khazars died out. Their line no longer exists.

This is quite different than the melody used in the US.  I think I like this one a bit more.

@newscorner There is a difference of opinion as to whether the prayer should cover past actions or the future. Both versions are used today, depending on tradition. My understanding is that the version used by most Jews today dates from the Spanish Inquisition, and was written especially for Jews forced to convert against their will.
