How Judaism's Most Sacred Prayer Object Is Made With 3000-Year-Old Techniques | Still Standing

One of the most sacred objects in Judaism is made of skin from a bull's neck. It’s called tefillin, and each black box contains scrolls that must be written by hand. Now demand for these prayer objects has soared since the latest war in Israel and Gaza that erupted on October 7th. Mostly from less religious Jews, including Israeli soldiers headed into battle. So, what does it say inside these little boxes? And why are so many people trying to get their hands on them?

    There’s also the mezzuzah, which you put on your doorframe for protection. It also has a handwritten scroll inside. It’s very important the scrolls are handwritten. Buddhism (at least Mahayana Buddhism) has a similar thing about copying sutras by hand to study them.

    Short correction at 2:55, you say that Torah scrolls contain the entire Hebrew Bible, which is not true. The Torah is only essentially 1/3 of the Hebrew Bible, with the other parts being the Neviim and Ketubim, the Prophets and Writings. The whole collection, what could be called the Hebrew Bible, is the Tanakh. Other than that, amazing video!

Also at 7:56 they said that the temple stood "Where the Al-aqsa Mosque is today" When they mean the dome of the Rock, the (Very pretty) shrine which might be considered part of the complex but not the Mosque.

    This is actually incorrect. Only in recent years, maybe 10 years ago have the Palestinians started calling the entire complex "al aqsa" in order to legitimize the blood libles of "Jews infiltrating the mosque" which is a complete lie, namely because Jews have no interest whatsoever in that area of the mount (it's just a add on by king Herod the great) as it lacks any holiness. You can actually find online maps from the Jordanians that occupied the Mount for 19 years and from the Jerusalem Imam "Al housaini"(who supplied the Nazis with 10,000 soldiers and tried bringing the final solution to the mandate of Palestine)with calling the dome of the rock "mount Moriah" and the mosque building​ "Al aqsa".

As for the politicians... listen... they are idiots, ignorant and dangerous, but they are not in charge of the war decisions (thank god). They take the bible and religion and tarnish it, cowards and disgraceful. But it is not a religious war, not for the people in charge and for most solders. It's a fight for existence.

    It is a religious war, at least as much as it is for any other cause. Israel is a Jewish state with a minority of Muslims and Christians, at least in power. In Gaza lives mostly Muslims and a minority of Christians. Hamas is an Islamic organization, its very seal being the Dome of the Rock (the mosque built over the Temple in Jerusalem), framed by two swords (symbols of violent struggle) and the Shahada (the core pledge and creed of Islam). The very seal of Hamas is a statement that Jerusalem is not for the Jews. If you are 90% of one religion and your enemy is 100% of another, that shapes your whole worldview. Neither side can make a legitimate argument that the fight is purely for secular reasons. No, the whole premise of this war is one of both ethnicity and religion. Any other narrative is not complete. Claiming it’s about politics, sovereignty and liberty is about as cogent an argument as saying the US civil war was about states’ rights.

    What is it to be a religious Jew except to follow the Torah, the word of G-d? This is not to say measuring 1-for-1 against individuals' actions, which would not be good, but people who don't follow mitzvos or learn Torah are necessarily further from G-d. One cannot treat that as a one-way-street any more than a marriage is; if you are married but neglect your spouse or cheat etc., you can't still claim to be the same as a devoted husband/wife It's not just a matter of religion per se, but simply that being an honest person means following guidelines / rules.

Which means that the Divine is not separate from us as humans, or from anything natural in this world as the color is found everywhere in nature. That is beautiful.

    En realidad en la Torá no dice que te hagas una cajita con textos dentro. Solo dice que la ley de Dios tiene que estar DENTRO de tu corazón y que tenías que recordarla COMO si la tuvieras atada al brazo con una cinta, no es algo literal. También prohíbe los ídolos y los amuletos. Dios quería que obedecieran de todo corazón, con sinceridad pero en vez de eso inventaron tradiciones humanas para parecer religiosos a la vista de otros aunque luego robaran, cometieran adulterio, etc. (Dt VI. 8, XI. 18; Éx XIII. 9, 16.)

    What an amazing tradition. It is a shame that the Israeli state has slipped into imperialism and genocide, so much so, that countries like the US need to air drop food and basic supplies to a cornered population which homes were robbed from them. I hope the Jewish traditions can survive in a more peaceful framework than that.

    The history of Israel and Zionism is complex. There could have been a peaceful birth, where immigrating Jews and the native Palestinians (which consisted also of Jews and Christians, not just Muslims) could co-exist in peace. However, with how modern Israel ended up being formed, there has been violence against Palestinians since day 1.

    They are doing it because many of them are young people under 25 or 20, having spent their lives with a constant background stream of violence and fear propagated by a corrupt government using the conflict and fear deliberately to stay in power. Many of those same soldiers spent the past year (or far more) protesting said government at every opportunity at the cost of work days, personal relationships, and their own blood and broken bones. A few months ago Hamas has knowingly done the literal worst thing it could for the people of Gaza - It went on a horrific killing spree in the border villages taking hundreds of civilians captive. Over one day, they shifted Israeli public momentum away from the most hopeful, vocal and ruthless attempts to take down the corrupt violence-loving regime seen since the last peace-seeking prime minister was assassinated 30 years ago. They gave the extreme right-wing every argument needed to fuel fear and indiscriminate hate because **Every single Jewish person in the county either personally lost a family members, or closely knows someone who did.** Also, let's not forget the numerus Israeli Arab and Muslim victims of the attack, slaughtered by Hamas for "being collaborators worse than the jews". I'm not saying Israeli actions in Gaza are pretty, or even entirely just. I'm as opposed to the government as any sane emphatic person would be - but the fiction that Israeli soldiers are cheerfully going to murder people in Gaza is false. Those are people finding comfort in tradition because their country is at a boiling point, they recently lost friends and family to violence, their leaders spent decades pumping the "kill or be killed" narrative to maintain power and they have to try their best despite heavy personal consequences to both cooperating and resisting. They leave dreading the situation and they come home scarred and broken - breaks the right-wing will call 'treason' if shown publicly. (Yes, people in Gaza is suffering. That's horrific and wrong but not specifically the topic of my comment.) Don't go on here making one-line judgements as if anything about this is simple, clear cut or easy. labeling either side single mindedly evil is ignorant at best and malicious at worst. And it never helps.

    As a religious Jew who wears these each morning, and who has spent many hours exploring the beauty, wisdom, meaning, and depth in every facet of these boxes, I am pretty surprised by these comments. You guys speak about things you know absolutely nothing about with such ignorance, with such vitriolic hatred, that I'm just confused. Phrase your comments as questions, and you will learn much from those who are happy to teach, with hearts full of love. Learn to separate Jews, Judaism, thousands-year-old tradition and people from the current historical moment in which a secular - not religious, but secular - state is choosing a particular political path in response to an existentially challenging set of circumstances, which, whether you agree with or vehemently oppose it, has no bearing on scriptural traditions and those hundreds of thousands of people all around the world who have been lovingly guarding them for thousands of years. Recognize that these are not items or worship, or spiritual antennas, or good luck charms, or amulets, and that they have no bearing on the acceptance of prayer. Understand that, surprise surprise, Jesus (who was by all accounts a religious Jew) wore these too. Learn that animals aren't specifically killed for this reason, and that, regardless of your perhaps admirable vegetarian beliefs, surely you are aware that there are other views on this issue, and within that camp, the Jewish approach to slaughter is among the most humane that there is. We make assumptions about things because it gives us a false sense of security, a feeling like we understand the world, when in truth, things are so much more complicated. What we need in this moment is more openness, more love, more curiosity, more humility, more sharing out of a mutual desire to co-create a better world - a more conscious world, a less divided world, a healthier and better world for all. So let's do that, instead of embarrassing ourselves in a KZread comments section. Happy for anyone to reach out with further questions on anything to do with Judaism/Jewish life/ Jewish philosophy. I have nothing but love in my heart for all humans.

    God doesnt care about you or anyone else doing things by hand from thousands of years ago or by bowing and saying words over n over again. His desire is for ALL of us to be going out and spreading the Word of God, and not being concerned with mere rituals which arent going to truly reach God or truly reach the hearts of people who dont believe in Him. There is SO MUCH more important work that we are to be doing for our God of ALL gods and King of ALL kings
