Sh'ma Ysrael - TallChai

from the Fathers Day Jam, my daughter TallChai plays and sings this hebrew song "Sh'ma Ysrael" by joel chernoff and i throw a little StratWork in at her behest ;o)
Joel Chernoff is a Singer-songwriter and Messianic Jew, who is a founder member of the music group Lamb.
Joel was brought up in the 1950s and 1960s as part of one of the very few Messianic households. He considered himself a "Believer". But it wasn't until the late 60's revival, known as the Jesus Movement, that Joel had a truly life-changing experience while he was a student at the University of Cincinnati.
Joel had been raised on hit parade music and at 16 he found he had a gift for writing songs. He played keyboards in a five-man band that became popular at churches, youth rallies and other community events throughout his teens. In 1972 Joel formed the group Lamb. Lamb, whose music soon came to be known as simply Messianic Music, quickly became one of the premier groups of the new movement that was sweeping the country. Recording on national labels, as well as their own independent imprint, Lamb recorded a total of 14 albums over two decades. With Lamb's break-up in 1992, Joel focused his energies into several prominent organizations within the Messianic Jewish movement. Joel is currently the General Secretary of the Messianic Jewish Alliance of America (MJAA) and also president of the International Messianic Jewish Alliance (IMJA). In 1996, a charitable organization, the MJAA Joseph Project, was founded. Joel Chernoff chairs the Project, which provides food, clothing, and other neccesities to poverty stricten Israelis.

As of 2005 Lamb have reformed, with fellow Messianic artist Ted Pearce.

Joel has a brother David (aged 54), who is a Messianic Rabbi at Congregation Beth Yeshua in Philadelphia. They are the sons of Martin and Yohanna Chernoff, the founders of Cincinnati's Beth Messiah messianic congregation.

@tallchai As a Jewish woman, your comment about the one you call "Yeshua" is utterly charming and very disarming! & your voice is beautiful. As a psychologist who works with families and teens, it is wonderful to feel the powerful relationship you have with your father, a gifted artist in his own right. As my mother, and her mother before her, said (although not in English at all :-) "Such mazel you bring!"

Really lovely! Thanks for posting! I'm supposed to be playing the violin for my friends bar mitzvah, and this is one of the songs we're going to sing. I hadn't heard of this paticular arrangement before so I didn't know the tune, so this video is very helpful! Your daughter has a really good voice and plays the guitar REALLY well! I know a bit of guitar, but all those bar-chords...! Wow!

Thanks again!

@Sievad1991

We who are in Jesus fully understand that Yeshua/Jesus is the passover lamb and that HE is fully Jewish and always will be. We don't get hung up on HIS name, we know it is Yeshua. I for one am glad that the world knows HIM as JESUS, at least when they use it as a swear word, it is twice removed from HIS Hebrew name. (I suppose small minded people don't think of that) Yet HE has commanded us to love you anyway :)

Love from a "goy" grafted into YESHUA by faith in HIM :)
