My father's 60th yahrzeit is tomorrow. I go to synagogue to say kaddish . . . I am an ordained christian pastor. This is where I found peace. B'ezrat hashem YHVH
I am American and raised Catholic. Right now I am agnostic, but still spiritual. I am reading "Night" in the English class I am taking. Today's assignment was to read chapter 3 independently. They mentioned speaking the Kaddish in their times of terror. I almost instinctually closed my eyes and perked up....or rather pricked up(perked feels like it has too positive of a connotation) my ears and closes my eyes as if waiting to hear the prayer. So with that I slightly smiled bc I thought myself foolish for forgetting that I was only reading a book and next thanked God almighty that I was not there...meeting & witnessing others meet such a cruel fate. Then I thought to myself, hmm, perhaps this is a sign that I should look up and listen to the Kaddish. Even if not a sign, I think it right that I listen as an act of rememberence to all those whose blood was split in the Holocaust in a way perhaps many of them would feel right or fitting. So here I am. Beautiful singing and bittersweet words. It has touched me more than I could have imagined. May God bless you. 🙏🕊💜
@@danielfeldman4291 Thank you so much for your words. 💜 Edit: I've recently taken a positive turn in my spirituality journey: not letting guilt or shame or fear control, guide, or paralyze me. I now realize that all I really can do is allow God to guide me and remind myself that he sees my good intentions. No one truly knows the absolute truth. I am not perfect and he knows that. I mustn't allow myself to be made dizzy by those pulling me this way and that way with their own personal beliefs. Yes, he is all of our God, but this is my own spiritual journey. Yes, it is good to allow yourself to have support, (I didn't for a long time regarding this topic), allow yourself to be gently and compassionately led & not harshly pulled, but also reflect on what energy you want to allow into your life. Sorry ,for the long rant. I just felt the need to tell someone. Have a wonderful day/night. 💜
@@AyDotHam oh it's a pleasure to listen. I think you have the right philosophy on things and that's wonderful. Thank you for remembering those lost in the Holocaust. G-D bless you
my father also died a month ago, and I'm not an observant jew. but i do feel the longing for a ritual to mourn him - this was beautiful and so badly needed. thank you for its comfort
Thank you... today marks 3 yrs that my beloved, complicated, and loving mother Myrna passed. I lit the yarzeit candle and said the mourners kaddish...but not until i found your beautiful song did this feel more complete.
This is absolutely beautiful. It brought tears to me eyes. I was looking for a Kaddish song to listen to because my father died this week. Yours was the most beautiful and moving one I found. God has blessed you with a gift.
There are 4 different kaddish prayers, two are said by mourners two are said by the, chazzan, every prayer service The version she sung is not any of those. She skipped portions, that are part of kaddish
Lovely heartfelt rendition. Thank you. Just as an aside, as an English speaker, it always bugged me that translations always use masculine pronouns, the Divine has no gender.
@@studiosorek1432 The Divine, “that which is” is neither male nor female, it isn’t binary. It is only human language which has mistakenly given it a gender.

This is incredibly disrespectful. You don't get to take our liturgy and our deeply held spiritual belief and set it to music, put it on youtube, monetise it, and use it to spread your name. This is INCREDIBLY disrespectful to Jewish people. How dare you.
