What nobody told you about the Ten Commandments 

Thank you Rabbi. The world will be a better place if all the world leaders abide by the TEN COMMANDMENTS. Take care.

Wow. Distinguishing honouring parents from loving parents. Such a major learning for me. I wish I would have made that distinction long ago 🌻 Toda Raba!!

Beautiful explanation. Thank you, Rabbi Jacobson. 😊

God bless Rabbi. You're a wonderful teacher.

Im a Christian but i love listening to wise rabbis , the Jews according to the Bible are Gods chosen people and i respect that .

thank you Rabbi Simon Jacobson for giving the meaning of the 10 Commandments i have gone by western way of thinking. the meaning is much much clearer, now it's easier to get along with a Earthly nieghbor. happy sunday.🎉

Concise, beautiful and simple yet profound explanation. Thank you for this!

I love Rabbi Jacobson, he explains Life in ways I can understand.

Thank you, Rabbi! Your description of God's basic set of laws for all humanity is sublime, impactful & moving. God chose the beautiful Jewish people to lead the way spiritually, ethically, and morally. That mission is needed to this day, as in the days of Moses, Joshua, Samuel, David, Solomon, and so on. As there is nothing new under the sun. Shalom!

I appreciate your work. Thank you.

Thank you so much Rabbi Jacobson for explaining the deeper and real meanings of the Ten Commandments. Being raised as a Christian I never had the opportunity to learn so much about the Ten Commandments as from you. G-D bless you, Rabbi! ❤❤❤✡❤❤❤ Greetings from Austria.

Some years ago I struggled with understanding the true depth of the Ten Commandments and it suddenly occurred to me that, if we keep the first five the second five become promises, and thou shalt not ..................... Many thanks for always being ready to share your moments of enlightenment with us.

Superb !! Thanks a lot, dear Rabbi Simone Jacobson. Yilma Wako from the USA, though born and grew up in Ethiopia.

People think these are religious laws. They are but a blue print for human behaviour. If you happen to live in a democracy, these laws are the basis of our democratic institutions. If your circumstances are not perfect it’s because we are not perfect and are prone to error. We are moving though towards a better future by trial and error.

So simple, yet so profound!

Amen Baruch HaShem Rabbi toda Rabbah.So good.

I could say that you are bias confirmation, for which i am eternally grateful, but it's more than that. You are a fantastic Rebbe/mentor/coach.

Thank you sir 🙏🏾

Beautiful explained, cvod Rabbi , hope as many as possible people to listen, understand and respect each and every word !

Much like a 12 step program. Thank you.

Thank you

Good teachings - thank you Rabbi. Also very interesting!

Thanks!

Thankyou

That is true as trueing spirit can be as I comprehend understanding GOD: G=center/source, O=whole/entirety, D=participle/way. We are participles of god being that as we may; (centers/sources)deities, (wholes/entireties)royalties, & participles/ways)surfs~

No need to send thanks to us Rabbi Jacobson. We are sending thanks to you. Our principle is: from each according to his ability, to each according to his need. From you has come much to us, and our need is great, we can't match that with money (the universal measure of labour) but this contribution is consistant with our ability, we hope it can equal in some way your need.

You have a magnificent beard.

I adore and respect you. ❤

😊GVB ❤🎉 This is where Moises Education as a prince of Egypt comes in to focus- the idolatry. 😊

One of the conclusions I've come to regarding the Ten Commandments is, the tenth commandment, i.e., Do not Covet, is the lynchpin of the whole thing. To covet, to desire something so much you can taste it, so much that you're willing to abandon all morality to obtain it, even IF it belongs to someone else, is what leads to murder, lying, theft, perjury, and idolatry. Avoid covetousness, and the chances of you violating the other crimes go down dramatically. Just my thought on that.

I explain the colours names and encourage drawing and expression. I encourage shapes and explain the meaning of the faces shown through the veil.

Merci beaucoup pour vos explications claires. Oui les dix commandements sontl les règles toujours d’actualité à ne jamais oublier. Pour ma part c’est comme une hygiène de vie que mes parents m’ont transmis et que je transmets à mes enfants. Sans règle c’est le chaos.

Min 11: allow me to make a little correction if I may..Muslims do not have the Jewish 10 commands, jews and Christians only..thank you for this video..God bless you rabbi

Thank you Rabbi. Suppose Moses was only able to bring two of the tablets? Where can we find out what happened to the other Commandments?

God bless you Rabbi for your wonderfully simple yet profound teachings 🙏

Thank you. Never understood why some people are so offended by these basic guidelines that help many people be decent & kind human beings. Maybe they're simply lazy & can't admit it? And use "proselytizing" to excuse themselves. (Then wonder why their lives are a mess.)

I tend to interpret things somewhat differently; When I see "Do not use God's Name in vain", I see a command to not create rules and falsely claim that they originate from God. This then brings me to the command "Thou shall not steal", if the command really reads as "Thou shall not kidnap" then in terms of my interpretation of "Do not use God's Name in vain" this is an infringement of one of God's Commands, especially since the topic of theft is also covered under the "Do not Covet" command...

I try to educate people whenever it’s appropriate, the 10 commandments are elementary, and should be known by all.

I spend time with God every day and if i had said something not supported i woukd certainly experience a consequence. Nope.

The Ten Commandments derived from the laws of Ma'at. Egypt played a huge part in Judaism. So did Sumer. Abraham left Sumer Ur and migrated ro Egypt. All of Genesis is either a Sumerian or Egyptian tale.

unfortunately l have to work every Sunday and have had to do so for 11 yr.

Biggest enemy is Satan followed by ourselves

In Mel Brooks "History of the World: Part I" Moses had three tablets, and dropped one :) "The Lord, the Lord Jehovah has given unto you these fifteen”, and then drops one of the tablets and says "Oy. Ten! Ten commandments for all to obey!”

I never thought the Rabbis would stop trying to find an escape clause to the ten commandments.

Does God actually have a name like Fred? One of the reasons I don't attend a lot of churches is there are no standards.

You shall not worship money and you shall not employ usery

There is another Rabbi who was preaching love of homosexuality because he claims if we don't, we have hate. Sex, is an act of creation like, the Creator.

Money has become another GOD to the human .

Thou Shall not kill

🙏🏻🤍

If you need a doctor during Sabbath all doctors are honoring Sabbath...if enemy attack during Sabbath...

Rabbi i just wish to tell you I have read several books on Kabbalah including the Zohar which stems from the ancient Egyptian Hermetic teachings that Moses taught the Hebrew elderly in the dessert. Every religion has its divinities and I respect all of them. The Jews respect the prophets and their teachings, the same goes with Christians who respect and venerate the Saints. For Buddhist, Buddhas are enlightened beings and the Buddhist bow to the wise teachings of the Buddhas (Siddhaharta Gautama Buddha, the Dhyani Buddhas) to the Lamas, Rimpoches and Geshes but they are not Gods. Devas in Buddhism and Hinduism are representations of values, an iconographic image of an ethical value or wrathful protectors of the temples (more a cultural imagery of ancient personification of natural forces). I respect all divinities of all the religions because that is the humble teaching God in heaven told humanity in the Babel tower. He told all the folks from different tribes and cultures to go down to Earth and learn from each other and respect the life of each other and that is what I do. May all the Celestial Beings, all the Divinities (including the Universe Primordial Force call it Creator or just the Primordial Source), from all the religions protect all human beings from violence and weather hostile events such as hurricanes, tornadoes, tsunamis, earthquakes, floods, droughts, storms and destructive fires.

I think by now we're able to be moral without hanging on a thousand year old stone (that, by the way, never has been found) Don't you think? Everything moves, evolves. I'm sure we have a moral kompas by now...

You didn't live here so you don't know what happened.

Thou shall not commit Adultery

All Children should be taught these Commandments. Vouchers for religious schools are needed to evolve society.

I know that NONE of us can fulfill the law and the only one to ever did it was Christ

We are not meant to stand idly by knowing this and witnessing the fall of everything that is good and suffering at the hands pf psychopathic individuals who think these rules di not apply to the. That is not what God asks. He asks us to distinguish between the righteous who deserve their lives and those who will only ever cause us to suffer and die.

Doing nothing to srop the psychopaths who disregard these rules is the same thing as supporting their actions.

Jews dont follow the 10 commandments of God, onky the Musa'lim and the Musa'ics and Christ'ians follow the commands...

12 Facts About the Muslim Jesus..:: Muslims, like Christians, believe in Jesus Christ, because he is written about in the most sacred book of Muslims - in the Koran. Below I will present 10 facts about the Muslim Jesus. (Fact 1.) Jesus in Islam is not a God-man, as most Christian denominations teach. Muslims consider him a prophet. (Fact 2.) In the Quran, the name of Jesus is written as Isa ibn Maryam, that is, Jesus son of Mary. The name contains a reference to the mother, not the father, which is quite unusual for the Islamic tradition. (Fact 3.) For Muslims, Jesus is one of the most important prophets of Islam. In the Koran, he has the following statuses: "rasul" - the messenger of Allah, "nabi" - the bringer of news, "salih" - the righteous, "kalima" - the word of Allah. He was sent by Allah to confirm the Taurat, that is, the old sacred scripture - the Torah, and to give a new scripture - Injil, that is, the Gospel. (Fact 4.) The name of Jesus is mentioned 25 times in the Quran. Of these, 23 times - Isa ibn Maryam. (Fact 5:) Muslims, like Christians, believe in the immaculate conception of Jesus Christ. That is, he did not have an earthly father. (Fact 6.) The Quran says that Mary gave birth to Jesus in agony. During her labor pains, she went to a date tree and said, "I wish I had died before this and been forgotten forever!" But when Jesus was born, he immediately turned to her and said, "Do not be sad! Your Lord has created a stream beneath you. Shake the trunk of the palm tree towards you, and fresh dates will fall on you. Eat, drink and be happy!" After these words, he commanded Mary to take a vow of silence so that she would not be asked about the miraculous birth of her child. (Fact 7.) From the above fact it follows that Jesus spoke immediately after birth. When the relatives entangled Mary in harlotry, upon seeing the infant Jesus, the prophet said: "Truly, I am a slave of Allah. He has given me the Scripture and made me a prophet." (Fact 8.) The Koran mentions a miracle of Jesus that is not in the Bible. In the Surah "The Table" it is said that Jesus as a child molded birds from clay and by the will of Allah brought them to life. A similar story is in the apocryphal early Christian text of the 2nd century "The Gospel of the Infancy of Thomas". (Fact 9:) Muslims believe that before Islam, the teachings of Jesus were the only true religion. (Fact 10.) Muslims deny the crucifixion of Jesus. The Koran says that the Jews allegedly killed Jesus: "Indeed, we killed the Messiah Isa, son of Mary, the Messenger of Allah." But they were wrong. They did not crucify him, they only thought they did. Instead of crucifixion, Allah raised Jesus to heaven: "It was Allah who raised him to Himself, and Allah is Exalted in Might and Wise." (Fact 11.) Muslims believe in the second coming of Jesus. On the Day of Judgement, Jesus will return and judge sinners, guided by the rules of Sharia. (Fact 12.) In addition to judging sinners, Jesus will fight Dajjal, the Antichrist, and defeat him. He will then establish a kingdom of goodness and justice. >------------------------------------------------------------< Jesus of Muslims.: Christianity is founded on the person of Christ and what He accomplished on the cross. “Christ is our cornerstone,” one of the early Christian hymns wrote. “On Him alone we stand, in His love our hope, and the gift of grace and joy from on high.” However, there are significant differences between the Jesus that millions of Christians know and the figure of “Jesus” (Isa in the Qur’anic and Hadith tradition) that is present in Islam. Some Christians, keen to engage in dialogue with Muslims, argue that the Isa of the Qur’an and Hadith is essentially the same Jesus as the one in the New Testament. If this is true, then the whole of Christian doctrine must be reconsidered. Christians traditionally see Jesus as the second person of the Trinity, the Lord who demands reverence and worship. Christ's incarnation and substitutionary death on the cross are seen as part of God's plan of redemption, designed from eternity, thus forming the basis of the doctrine of God's salvation for all who will believe it. Islam, however, maintains that Isa was just a simple man, although it accepts and respects him as a righteous prophet and miracle worker. Islam also affirms the fact of the immaculate conception and his return to earth (albeit as a Muslim). But Muslims reject the title "Son of God" as blasphemy, because it is understood literally, in a purely physiological sense. Islam denies the divinity of Isa, his incarnation, crucifixion, atoning sacrifice and resurrection. Muslims believe that someone else was crucified instead of Isa. Thus, Islam denies all the main pillars of Christianity. For Muslims, Muhammad, not Isa, is the perfect man, the god-given role model. Muhammad is far superior to Isa, and the practice of venerating Muhammad is widespread in the Islamic tradition. He has become the eternal Christ-like figure for whom God created this entire world and for whom he alone is the mediator and intercessor. All nature revere, all men bow down. To the One who brought light into the world of darkness. O Messenger of Allah! My respect I give to you. O Prophet of Allah! My love I give to you. My life, my whole self I give to you with joy, Your divine message will always be with me. Early Islam arose against the backdrop of Muhammad's conflict with the Jews and Christians living in Arabia. Thus, the passages that mention Isa in the Quran and Hadith are part of the polemic against the biblical Jesus. There are two main sources of knowledge about "Jesus" for Muslims - the Quran, which presents the story of his life, and a collection of hadiths, which reflect the Muslim understanding of his place in the end times. Isa in the Quran.: The Quranic description of Isa includes some biblical elements, but they are generally either the exact opposite of or greatly embellished compared to the Gospel narrative. Scholars have found that some Quranic material about Isa is derived from Gnostic and apocryphal gospels. Although the Quranic description of Isa is variously titled, such as Messiah, Apostle, Word of God, and Spirit of God, it completely denies His divinity, divine sonship, and the concept of the Trinity. So believe in Allah and His Messengers, and do not say “Trinity!” for your own good. Allah is the One and Only God! It is not fitting for His Majesty to appear as a Father to a mortal. He alone is the Owner of all things in the heavens and on the earth. He alone is sufficient as a surety! (Porokhova translation, 4:169) [2] Belief in the divinity of Christ and the Trinity is a grave sin (shirk) for which there is no forgiveness: “They disbelieve who say that Allah is the Messiah, son of Mary. Say, ‘Who can hinder Allah even a little if He were to destroy the Messiah, son of Mary, and his mother, and everyone on the earth?’” (5:19). The Quran indicates that Christians believe that God and Mary had physical intercourse, which resulted in the birth of Jesus: “O Creator anew of the heavens and the earth! How can He have a child, when He had no companion? And when He created all things, and of all things He is fully Acquainted!” (6:101). The Quran presents Jesus as one of a long line of prophets of Islam whose primary mission was to submit to Allah (or Islam). Thus, Muslims see Isa as equal to, but not superior to, any of the many other prophets: “Say: We believe in Allah and what was revealed to Abraham and Ismail and Isaac and Jacob and the tribes and what was given to Musa and Isa and the prophets from their Lord. We make no distinction between any of them, and to Him we submit” (3:78). Isa was, like Adam, created from the dust of the ground: “Indeed, the likeness of Isa in the sight of Allah is like that of Adam: He created him from dust, then said to him, ‘Be,’ and he was” (4:52). Jesus gave the book of Injil (Gospel), and before Him was the Torah:

Jesus told you that you are not chosen by race but you still think you are

When it says don't kill or steal , is it only for Jews among themselves or is it in general about all human beings?

Thank you

Why is there nothing about abusing children? Why doesn't God protect children?

2 tablets : each tablet had ALL 10 commandments: they were a COPY. This is how contracts were done back then. Also there commandments written on both sides of each tablet. More significance is there as well. Yes there is 2 groups, ... 4 + 6 .... ?!?

thank you

do you think God will hold it against people that keep the sabbath rest on Sunday instead of Saturday? most people start work week on monday

Thank you Rabbi for explaining the true meaning of Ten Commandments, the laws of LORD: the first tablet shows our legal obligations for LORD, which is ethic; the second tablet shows our legal obligations for other people, that is morality.

Split in two tablets. 1 to 5 and 6 to 10 Split in two, 1) love the Lord you God with all your heart, mind, and soul. 2) Love your neighbor as yourself. 6 to 10

Beautiful, thank you!

If you judge your judgemental parents is that honoring them ?

I was close to murder a little more than ten years ago. I try to honor my parents, but, I must admit I can't stand my mother.

Be blessed and be well..well said thank you

Thank you for your videos.

Thank you Rabbi!🤗

Thank you❤

Rabbi says, "There's a power greater than yourself, and you've been placed here in this world on a mission, a mission to refine yourself and refine the world around you. And we have a formula". Ten rules, a guide, a life instruction handbook. These rules must be our reminders, reminding each of us of what we need to accomplish here on Earth. So, why were souls created with imperfections? Maybe it's that Earth is the workout planet, where souls go to work out imperfections. Hmm, again I'm nudged into a rabbit hole of thinking where various thoughts keep popping up and I'm unable to properly sort things out. I imagine that all will become more clear when my soul moves on after it's done with this earthly body. Oh well, time will tell. Peace, kindness, compassion, and humanity.

“Holy” teachers are unbelievable when they are overweight. This shows over eating and laziness. Both things that are taught not to do in the book.

You have no idea what you’re talking about…

Rabbi before you start could you please explain that these beautiful words and righteous laws only apply to just your people and every one else gets "Like putting a finger into the eye " These Laws are not for the Gentile . These laws are not for anyone but just you and your kin . Am I wrong ?

You're wrong about number 7.

"Global war of goodness." Sounds a bit silly.
