  • At 0:40 "Too many acronyms..."

    הגה"צ = הגאון הצדיק

    זצ"ל = זכר צדיק לברכה

  • lol. Thank you. Learning Hebrew is a miSwa (in my understanding). Tizku l-miSwoth.

  • I'ld like to add that after I made this clip, I found another poster, similar to this one, which said that anyone who doesn't uphold their ruling, such a person has no place in the world to come. WHAT?!! Who gave them such authority to decide such a thing? lol. It's outlandish. I'm so glad these people are pacifists. I think they've just been inbreeding for too long. & that's my 2 cents, lol.

  • Oh yeah, and I took a picture of that poster also. I plan on eventually putting the posters which I photographed together into a better planned video on the topic.

  • @omedyashar Great Video .WOW.You are Right they Should be Called Moreh not ''Rabbi''Chas Ve shalom.Only Chazal have The Authority to Interpret Halacha.

  • He's speaking the Hebrew letters in their original pronunciations, most notably 'ayin being pronounced, hheth (not khet/chet), resh as in a rolled sound on the back of the teeth, etc.

    He's definitely right in doing so, and I've been doing the same after seeing one of this guy's videos on the original pronunciation. And I'm also American. =P

    Thanks to this guy I've been refining my beliefs, customs, and observances toward much more originality. B"H, and thank you omedyashar!!

  • it seems like the hachamim these days ursurp :/

  • The term rabbi does not occur in the holy Tanakh. The Encyclopaedia Judaica states: The title rabbi is derived from the noun rav, which in Biblical Hebrew means great and does not occur in the [Hebrew] Bible.

  • According to the Talmud, ancient rabbis advised that a scholar should not converse with a woman in the street. The talmud suggest a woman could not look into a mirror, (on the sabbath) as she might see a gray hair and pull it out, and that would be work.

  • LOL זיע"א means זכותו יגן עלינו אמן (May his virtue stand us in good stead). But I hear you. To read rabbinic texts is like deciphering the dead sea scrolls!

  • We do know from a Roman law dated Oct. 415 that R. Jamliel was strongly rebuked for founding new synagogues and allowing Christians to be circumcised. The same law indicated the conflict between the presiding judge and Theodosius II who abolished the house of Hillel (thus the line of Semikha). A law issued May 429 speaks of the "extinction of the patriarchate" (excessus patriarcharum, Codex Theodosianus XVI 8.29)

  • Scholars today think that the Patriarchate (I'm only using this word because they do) actually lasted till Rabban Jamliel VI, and I think that when Marcellus spoke of a medicine "recently" invented by Gamaliel in his "De Medicamentis" (beg. 5th cen.), he wrote "Gamaliel the Patriarch", but I need to double check (Lieberman, Hellenism in Jewish Palestine, pp. 582-83).
