The closest I've cut Shabbat was when my 7 a.m. Friday flight was 3 hours late. I'd reserved a car service from the airport to a cemetery to visit a loved one's grave...airport construction delayed that. At the cemetery, the driver went off the main road and had a hard time pulling back out. We were on the way to the hotel at 4:30 p.m. in crazy New York Friday traffic...and checking into the hotel took time. Sometimes things happen even when you've carefully planned everything!

Hi Dani and Raizel, I’ve been watching your channel for a while and find it very interesting. Your passion for your faith and helping others learn about it, is beautiful. I’m a passionate Catholic who is involved in evangelization in my own tradition. I’ve been taking Catholic groups to the Holy Land for many years now and have fallen in love with that sacred place. Since my first trip to Israel, I have been so interested to learn more about Jewish culture, religion and spirituality, which is so different from my own, but in some ways, also very similar. So this video left me with some questions. Please excuse my ignorance of this matter, no disrespect whatsoever is intended. Just a sincere desire to learn and understand. I understand the rules of Shabbat and the fact that you can’t be driving a car and need to be somewhere where you can light the candles and begin your Shabbat observance. But what happens if something completely unforeseen happens, and you are prevented from observing the way you are required to? For example, if you suddenly hit massive traffic while in that tunnel, got stuck there and had no where to go and could not just abandon the car in the tunnel, and Shabbat started? Are you allowed to continue driving the car until the first opportunity to safely abandon it? Or would you literally have to abandon the car in the tunnel and walk out of the tunnel (which could potentially lead to massive traffic problems, not to mention dangerous conditions of walking through the tunnel)? Is there some kind of “exemption” in those circumstances which would allow you to continue driving until the first opportunity to stop? Or some way to be forgiven/cleansed/purified for that transgression? I guess the wider question is this? You are required to follow 613 laws (right?), so what happens if/when you don’t follow one/some of them the way it is prescribed? I sincerely hope you don’t take any offense to the question because truly none is intended. With all the garbage available on the internet, it wonderful too see positive, inspirational content like yours making its presence known! May your channel continue to grow and inform.

the notion of there needing to be ritually pure is the cornerstone of Judaism...the transgression would need not an exemption but would mean to them they were irresponsible in their level of respect for one of God's "voiced" commandments..in making every possible attempt to not fall into that category of ' willingly' disobeying...or to have maybe by not planning in a proper way would maybe denote a vulnerability to further sin's...it is in this way that one need to know that in sin..which was a term used in archery to state that the arrow had in fact missed the bullseye...was called a "sin"... when one sins they are missing the 'mark'...in missing one must be aware of it so that in the next opportunity to hit it right..or 'get' it right means being hyper-vigillant in that task so as in further endeavors the nature of evil have no path to one's home...this is a very beautiful jesture...a time honored and valiant people indeed...

Hey thank you for this really good question! If you are in danger or endangering others then you can so called “break Shabbat” so stopping in the tunnel would definitely be endangering people. Shabbat is sacred and we love keeping it by hook or by crook. So that’s why this experience was so intense 😄

I have a question: those shabbat candles you lit in the toilet in this random hotel - you are not allowed to blow them out, right? So you left the toilet and left them burning there? I am just trying to image what the next person that used the toilet thought, when using the toilet and finding some burning candles there. Maybe she told some staff. They probably have never seen anything like that before ...

Жыл бұрын

They don't have to be practical for you, but for them it's as much a part of their lives as breathing. Patience, love and tolerance 💯 Btw.. I'm NOT Jewish, but I respect it ✡️

The rules are followed as an act of love and faith. No one requires they be practical. It is always in G-D’ s hands.

I respect and find different religions' views interesting but that is why I am not a religious person. I believe in god but I don’t want religion to make my life full of stress and worries and I don't think God had that in mind, too. Please have that personal opinion solely.

This is a clear example of when religion becomes fanatism and that's when people stops using their brain. You don't freak out and drive like crazy putting yourselves and others in danger. You don't light candles in a bathroom stall and live them unattended. And you don't ask a random stranger to push your child's stroller, when you are two grown up, healthy, abled body people. You accept that you have made mistake, by not planning well the route back the hotel considering that you're in a city that you don't know well, that you're not used to the traffic there, etc, by not charging your phones... and when you arrive at your hotel safely, whatever that time it is, then you start the shabbat celebrations and try to learn from the experience. You can live your life religiously and think at the same time. Moreover, you would think no god would want their people not to do so.

The Sabbath is one of the most holliest days of the week. Especially for orthodox jews. According to Jewish Law once sunset hits Friday Night to Saturday Night, you cannot do anything that creates work. Such as building, writing, building a fire and yes driving a car. For Jewish people they take this commandment/mitzvah very seriously that the only time you can break the sabbath is if an emergency of life threatening prepositions is occurring then one may do whatever is necessary to save a life or stop the threat. Here there is no emergency so according to Jewish Law one must do whatever to uphold the sabbath, henceforth the stress. Next time before opening your fat mouth maybe do some research and try understanding other cultures before you interject your opinion. You might be better off and look less like a prick. Hope this was helpful!

Great question! We love Shabbat and our heritage and it is super important to the both of us that we keep it to the fullest, from the very first minute. Imagine if someone was severely allergic to bread and someone came along and tried giving them just a crumb or two, to that person even a crumb they won't take even though it looks so small and so insignificant. Kind of like that, but in a positive spin :) So yes, we would've just left our car in the middle of no where and just figured it out after. On the driving in Dubai, I guess everyones experience is different!

It's a little disrespectful to come on someone's post that's teaching about THEIR specific religion and tell them what YOU feel is right or wrong. I love how poised and humble their response was and that takes a great sense of humility on their part. That truly shows that the big deal is THE BIG DEAL...Hashem and it doesn't get any bigger than HIM... If you don't understand, ask in a more polite and respectful way. It goes a lot further

Maybe this was supposed to be a skit. What kind of god would put you under such pressure for an on-time Shabbat candle? Seems like you were placing yourself and your child in danger by freaking out. I understand this is important, but sometimes unavoidable things happen. What kind of religion wants you to have a stroke?

Seriously. You can’t cope? That should be the worst of what you can’t cope with. I’ve seen orthodox people get in accidents rushing to make Shabbat on time, and once I was the lucky recipient of a smash up. Stay off the roads.
