I’ve always said you can’t understand the NT without understandingTorah. I got that saying from my former mother in law. I agree with her in that.

You're a light for sore eyes, Rabbi Friedman! Thank you for teaching, with integrity. With kindness, and honesty. Shalom.

Thank you. Each and every time I hear something useful and little by little it changes me and frees my soul. Rabbi I listen to you each day. Please continue this vital work.

Please don't leave without liking the video and watch more of this channel videos!

Thank you so much, Rabbi Friedman, for such a clear, comprehensive answer that makes sense. I heard this story for the first time when I was a child in Hebrew School and it didn't make sense. Many years of wondering put to rest!

Thanks my Rabbi Manis, GOD Almighty I thank Him, for leading me to your teaching.

The Bible says Moses was angry at the people for their complaints to him and against God. I accept what the Bible says.

The 40 yrs wandering in the dessert was not preparation....it was punishment. If he gets this wrong....

Thank you for this message. God used it to speak to me. I needed to hear to take care of the flock and if necessary to ignore the bigger picture. I prayed to God and to my father and I appreciate the answer

Moses was truly devoted to his people. Exodus 32:32 Yet now, if thou wilt forgive their sin--; and if not, blot me, I pray thee, out of thy book which thou hast written. “Forgive there sin - If not blot me out of the book that you have written” 🤯 Powerful! A true Keeper of Sheep!

I have so much esteem,respect and love for your you and your wisdom. I follow Ha’Machiach. What an honour to share your inheritance.

Shallom Rabbi Friedman! Wow! Oh Wow! 😊 Your wisdom of the torah is indeed incomparable. Always life and light-giving. Toda Raba as always! God Bless You Always! From the Phlippines...🙏❤

Such wisdom to listen too I really love learning , to understand what is is I’m reading in the Bible which I’ve read over and over without understanding!!! Thank you for explaining the Bible for me I love it!!!

If you are Christian then you know Christ warned us to not be deceived. Consider the modern Jews claim to be "Gods Chosen People" and that they follow the Torah. Then ask: if the modern Jews are Gods chosen what did God do with the other 11 tribes of Israel ? All of Israel were not Jews but this is what they want you to believe. Please wake up . Judaism with its roots in the Babylonian Talmud is the tradition that Christ denounced and why they killed him. I will pray

Thank you Rabbi for sharing this very interesting perspective,and teachings which I find so valuable to me

Thank you Rabbi Friedman Manis. I very powerful new insight. I marvel at Moses Shepardship, even to give up his own right for the sheep.

Wonderful lecture, thank you Rabbi

The first time, he was told to hit the rock was a picture of punishment for their unfaithful murmuring to who was going to come and give Himself as the once and for all payment for our sin,.. and seeing how He'd already paid by been struck this first time at the bitter waters of Moriah, all Moses was supposed to do this second time was to speak to the rock, And I've heard it said in the original language it says "and HE will give you HIS water,... but Moses, in his anger struck it again and twice at that, giving the picture of Him paying again for what had already been paid for, Also very importantly, is that by raising his voice at them in anger and striking the rock he spoiled the chance God was going to use to show His Love and Compassion for them.

Thank you for your wonderful insight.

Similarly a parent is a shepherd to their children. The children are not a piece of property, they are individual beings that will eventually move on. I raise my children as individual beings, I love them and accept their journey as they see it. I feel that everyone is a shepherd in a way. We all need to teach and help our fellow man but not to ever try to control them with teachings. 💕 🙏🏻 thank you

@@spiritof6986 What about the two prophets in revelations?

Not complicated. It's a matter of trusting, and being obedient. After hearing that he would not be entering into the Promised Land, because of his disobedience, Moses didn't kick up a fuss about it. He knew why, and accepted the consequences.

Godly words for healing and such a beautiful insight to ponder upon. I'm just working on the pattern of the shepherds and Moses the Good Shepherd wasn't even on my list, he's at the top now. The role of shepherd is like the role of a father - to provide and guide, protect and correct. Without a shepherd or protective loving force guiding us through dangerous territory or dangerous times we are sitting ducks and lambs to the slaughter. If the men don't Pray, the people will be Preyed Upon. Our first and most important line of defence against threat and predators is strong prayerful males uniting together arm in arm...creating a circle of defence. Like elephants or whales...they unite and protect together, as one. Not abandoning their role, nor thinking about their own safety...they circle and protect the old, the young and the females. It's truly beautiful to witness and watch. That's protective loyalty no matter what. So remember - Prayerful IS Powerful and thank you to all the men of Israel that pray for us all and study Torah. God Bless Israel, God Bless You and God Bless Your Family.

So true that to be great in Ti God's kingdom is become a servant of all without reservation...God honors our heart's desire with His mercy of guidance and direction. Thank so much.

...I was asking the question in another episode about from what reason why Moses did not enter the "promise land"....now I got the answer in this episode....Thank you.

The Resurrection...I believe it will be greater than we can imagine. Thank you Rabbi for this insight. Thought provoking. You made me cry when I realized what our Yahweh meant by them not going into the promised land, ever. Only to see Moshe be that bridge into the Promised Land. Praise Yahweh, He is so wise to know the true hearts of men.

There are documentaries on the rock that Moses hit. It is massive, and evidence of water having been there is found. More and more knowledge of the past is being unlocked for us. God told us knowledge will increase and this is part of that knowledge increase in my opinion.

A beautiful story, told beautifully. Thank you.

14:08 AMEN RABBI; "THAT" IS SERVICE.THANKYOU FOR REMINDING

Greetings Rabbi, Perspective of Bible understanding is changing and curiosity increased. Thanks !

1st Corinthians 10:4 and all drank the same spiritual drink. For they drank of the spiritual Rock that followed them, that Rock was Christ. I think that’s a must add in the story. Also his sister Miriam had just died so I can see why he was a bit extra frustrated with his ever complaining people where his sister just passed away. And he multiply struck the Rock that was Christ.

Shalom family... RABBI Friedman I pray that Almighty YAH continue to increases you with HIS WISDOM in other to impact HIS children, HIS ships that we come to HIS knowledge knowing of who HE really is to us, transforming our thoughts putting behind the lies and the deceit being thought by the world religious leaders paving us out from the straight line and form. I strongly believe that they're many more like you out there who are working for YAH impacting life with HIS WISDOM and declaring HIS knowledge to HIS children. May you all remain blessed all the time in HIS present...

There is definitely parts of this explanation that I definitely don't understand. It is truly much simpler than I feel he is making it. Moses died without entering the promised land for his disobedience in an act by striking the rock as if he could being forth the water, when God's word is sufficient. God's word is sufficient for everyone.

Thank you Rabbi!!!

Thank you.

" Behold, I will stand before you there on the rock in Horeb; and you shall strike the rock & water will come out of it, that the people may drink" by. Here again Israel is faced with a trial of their faith & of their trust in God's faithfulness to provide

Shalom Rabbi have a safe pesache

Have faith and keep gods commandments and trust that God will continue to bless And Us and bring blessing to our needs to keep living

20:05 AMEN CAN HARDLY WAIT TO SEE THEM WITH THESE EYES.

Forgive me but, if Mosheh realized that he probably sealed his fate by not speaking to the rock then why did he beg Abba to the point where Abba basically told him to shut up and live with the punishment? That doesn't make sense. IMHO I believe Mosheh got so angry with the stiff necked disobedient people that he lost his temper and struck the rock forgetting Abba's command in that moment and not showing the power of Elohim to all of the people. Everybody seems to forget that Mosheh in this whole episode never repented for what he had done and still because of the grace of Elohim he showed Mosheh the land from the mountain top before he died.

I love your teachings, all mane sense

Are you that guy in lord of the rings, rabbi? Much love for you sir from South Africa. If only church services were like this, now everything is a motivational speech.

Sheep do not make it to anywhere.. Each and every person must prove he/she is a good Shepherd of themselves and only then they can enter immortality.. A good leader do not say follow me but says walk with me and if they don't they have only themselves to blame!

Brazen serpent means bronze not copper alone. This is significant. Also, the number of times the rock was smote is significant. Why two times? And Moses and Aaron gathered the congregation together before the rock, and he said unto them, Hear now, ye rebels; must we fetch you water out of this rock? Who is this Rock that spills out the water?

Thank you 👍

thank you

thank you very much...

Wow! I love listening

Amen!God bless you!🙏🌈

Wow!..Moses was a self-less leader... i feel for Moses though. Thanks Rabbi for your insights.

Thank you rabbi

Not only did Moses disobey God by striking the rock, he made it like he was God by saying to the Israelites "you rebels must we fetch water for you. Hence the punishment because " you did not believe in me to sanctify me "

the im staying/ no go is a big trope , when these a issue, the person says go save yourself. other person says no, im staying

Thanks rabbi 🙏

YOU are BRILLIANT

Hello my friend, I was brought up as Roman Catholic and didn't believe any of it, as there is far to many holes in the stories, that I got into a lot of trouble for asking about or pointing out, I definitely think your version makes a lot more sense. Thank you and Kind regards Peter Halliday

Good morning sir, Very good explanation I am big fan of you Thanks

Interesting point of view. Thank you

The Rock is Christ. The water symbolizes the Holy Spirit. The first time Christ was stricken for our transgression. Holy Spirit poured out on Pentecost. Second-time holy spirit poured out to prepare God’s people who will shout for joy at Christ’s Return.

Instead we decide what is good and what is evil rather than seeking life

Love your work very good for me ⁷

Very well elaborated rabbi this makes alot of sense

If it’s the same Rock, the Rock must followed them. Psalm said My God is My Rock.

Rabbi Friedman’s amazing insight made me in tears. God’s punishment on Moses’s action was not fit on crime, because there’s no crime made. Mose’s love and compassion to his flocks made him to bury with them in desert knowing there’s milk and honey in Canaan was profound message to me. Apparently, God created there’s the way man thinking or dealing with on every situation or issues basically different than woman. That’s why God created man first then woman as helper not as leader. That’s why I love Judaism. you never get this kind of spiritual interpretation of Bible in church. Thank you!🙏♥️

Glad you explained this cause it didn't make sense to me .Now it does.

Wow wow I really enjoyed it , I used to think the same thing !!! Noses could not go to the promesse land , the story did not make sense at all , all that works , God said you cannot go , now the story make more sense,

All of this is built on subtext, at the end of the day he still disobeyed what God commanded...

When I here the rabbi tell the explanation it comes to my mind the store of Adam and Eve Im the only one ? Is it the human nature to love our demise than trusting and having faith in god’s wisdom ?

Excellent as decades of movies churches and discussion on did Moses strike the wrong rock or even 3 times or many topics of the Promised land.

Moses was defiant every time God asked him to do anything his first excuse was that he was slow of tongue Moses was a hot tempered man

I my self have been in the desert for 40 years!!!.

Then why Moses requested to God an opportunity to step in the land of milk and honey, later God said you can see but can't step in. ....please clarify this Rabbi

In short, Moses chose the people over YHWH. I think there is a greater principle at play. So many times taking an action in a seemingly impossible situation is easier than saying the right words.

and funny enough, today is good shepherd sunday lol

Now this is a story with a happy ending and a serious twist. This bible is a big movie with more plots and twists than Hollywood could ever produce. Praise G-d for His infinite mercies.

AMEN ..,

let see, if we start writing about our existence today, would we mention the "internet" as a miracle from a God?

Maybe God knew how Moses felt about going into the promise land .

I m a muslim. In Quran it is said that Allah told Prophet Moosa to strike the rock with rod and 12 streams of water flowed out for 12 tribes of bani israel. And it happened only once not twice. Thank you

Maybe not going into the promised land was in actuality a gift to Moshe Rabainu (Alav b shalom) after all those years of being a babysitter and lion tamer...

Option 1 (according to this rabbi): Imagine how Moses felt. Imagine what Moses thought. Option 2: Read the Bible to get the truth.

The worst part is in the Song of Moses, at the end, God tells Moses to go up on the mountain and to 'See' the Promised Land but that Moses would not be going to what God had just shown him...I worry about seeing my future, but not being able to obtain it...falling short...Moses can strike me, and let that Living Water flow out...ya, that sounds good to me...God Loves YOU...

Moshe Rabbeinu, what leadership! He promised to lead them into the land and he will, even at great cost to himself! A true leader doesn't say: follow me, I'm the greatest. A true leader says: "I'll take the flack for this" or "is everyone alright?" Will Moshe lead the followers of Korach out of the desert, too? Or did they permanently permanently give up their place in the world to come?

Rabbi, you have blessed me so much with so many of your teachings. I have come out of Christianity, it took me years to do so after much studying and struggling to try to prove what I thought I believed to be true. After realizing the lies that I was taught, I do not take anything in without suspicion. I admit that there is much for me to learn, thus the reason for my question. In Deuteronomy 3:23-29, Moses says "I implored Hashem...". Moses was pleading to enter the land. I heard another Rabbi teach that Moses requested 500 times to enter the land. Moses said in v. 26, "But Hashem became angry with me because of you, and He did not listen to me;". This does not line up with this video, please help me understand. Blessings.

If the people buried in the desert were/are not to enter paradise. How then Moses being buried there to will open the door or way for them to enter heaven? Did Moses know he would be buried in the desert? Was it his decision? I kind of got lost towards the end of this one. Have a blessed day.
