This reminds me a bit of the Roman tradition to declare war by going to the lands in question and, well, declare war to it. But when Roman influence grew, and war zones became more remote and you couldn't just wait for a messenger to travel there, declare war on it and come back, they thought of a workaround. They "gifted" the opponent a tiny piece of land outside of Rome, then threw a spear into it to declare war to it, then swiftly "annexed it" back. Technically they declared war onto the opponents land, so it was all good.

As a formerly religious Jew, the key here is that Orthodox Jews don't believe this is a loophole. They believe that the Torah (which in this case includes the Talmud) has no mistakes, and therefore every odd technicality, including the eruv, is perfectly intentional on God's part. Therefore, when they put up an eruv around Manhattan, this is as in keeping with God's law as claiming an itemized deduction for charitable donations is with American tax law. Why would God add this sort of odd technicality? Who knows! Orthodox Jews also don't believe it's possible to know God's intent about anything unless the Torah spells it out directly.

It's pretty pathetic. Their little tricks are simply their own righteousness. They're trying to make themselves holy in a way that God never asked them to do. How sad. Jesus came to straighten it out when he said the Sabbath was made for man and not man for the Sabbath. The Sabbath was given to us people 4 a day to spend with God and with others of like mind. It's a day to remember all the great things God has done. Yes we are to keep it holy and to not do any work but that's for our good in order to focus on him and his goodness and to share that time with other believers. It's a wonderful day of rest. It has nothing to do with whether or not you carry something on the Sabbath day! In fact Jesus said it is right to do good on the Sabbath day. That means that if someone happens to have a flat tire on the Sabbath and you know how help them out, you should stop and help them put their spare on. Or if someone was maybe driving with a load of something in the back of their pickup and they turn the corner and Spilled it all out on the road, pull over and help them pick it up. Or if someone's cows get out of their fence, help them get the cows back in even on the Sabbath day! Or if there's someone that is sick and needs some kind of medication and cannot wait, go to the store and buy it for them. Or if there is someone that hasn't had food and is hungry, give them food even if you have to go to the store and buy it. Those are the times when you can buy or sell on the Sabbath, when it's an emergency. Many times we would have food of our own that we could give people so we don't even need to buy anything. It's about resting in the Lord and sharing his goodness with others, that's what the Sabbath is about. It's not about our selfish petty little rules and acting like we're holier than everyone else! That's pretty disgusting and you can't trick God into thinking you're holy.

I agree. I’m a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and we believe in Sabbath day observance. However, we believe that the Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath. It was given to us for our benefit, to allow us a day to set aside the worries of day-to-day life and focus on our relationship with God and our worship of Him. When it comes to working on Sunday, we believe that it should be avoided as much as possible, but that some professions may require Sunday work, such as healthcare, law enforcement, emergency services, and public transportation. We’re encouraged not to conduct business on Sunday, nor to engage in recreational activities. Many of us choose not to study or do homework on Sunday. In short, it’s meant to be a day of rest and worship. How exactly we observe the Sabbath is between ourselves and the Lord.

You actually can not carry everything! For example tools, electronics, money or credit cards, or anything that is not directly related to observing (as in resting) on the Sabbath.

No. Judaism is much more complicated than a short youtube video can explain. The commandmant in the Torah says only to rest on the seventh day. In order to understand what that includes and what you are actually supposed to do there is the Talmud. The Talmud brings the thought process of big Rabbis and the bottom line of what they see as right. In this case they didn't specify the weight or bulkiness of the thing you want to carry, just no carrying anything from private prop. to public. And since it's gotten important, other Rabbis found a loophole that allows you to carry belongings without a worry. So this is not defying g-d himself, but adding an interpretation to his command. Judaisim is a strict religion with many little details that have been studied for over 3000 years. Till this day it's all relevant and adjustable to modern times.

How those who believed the messiah at his coming inherited his promise, and became his children by faith, being adopted into the household of the everlasting king of glory? Notice that it is always the firstborn and presumptive heir who is passed over in favor of the one whom God as chosen, just as a multitude of Israelites believed themselves as chilldren of Abraham to be the presumptive heirs of his covenant, but only those whom God had moved to supernatural faith recieved his blessing. This is not alt all to say that those who were jews by blood were in anyway excluded, because Christ, Peter and the other apostles, Paul, and all the very first Christians were Jewish. It is also prophesied that after the gentiles begin to lose the faith and leave the Church (we are at about this point in the story now) that the Jews will finally convert and accept the messiah their fathers had rejected, and for this rejection were driven into a diaspora which has dwarfed all prior exiles. For the record, his name isn't "Jacob the deceiver" but Saint Israel or Jacob the Patriarch.

A great example of the silliness of this Bronze Age woo.

I worked for a Jewish architect, years ago. We were both workaholics, which suited us fine. Then one day he upset the status quo as he'd just finished some Rabbi training and he asked me to stop working on Saturdays, but I could come in on Sunday. I said I had to go to church on Sunday (not really as I was normally in his office), but that if I took the work home on Fridays, I would be happy to work Sundays, after church. I knew better than to say I would work Saturday too. We got along beautifully and for years after that, even though I'd moved onto other companies (and his competition), I would still freelance for him in the evenings and weekends, from the comfort of my home.

@@loud4life920 Yeah, the thing is that religious rules never get adopted to the modern world (in no religion that I know). I can think of many rules that used to make sense, but which are not fit for purpose anymore. E.g. it makes total sense not to have sex before marriage if you don't have a social support system for single moms, don't have methods to prevent or treat STIs, and don't have contraception available. In modern days this doesn't apply anymore - at least not in industrialized countries. Also this not mixing meat and milk thing probably made a lot of sense, when these products where very limited, so people would limit themselves in meat and milk consumption. This is also not applicable anymore in industrialized countries, as milk and meat are very abundant. And I guess it's the same with the Sabbat: People should take a day off and not work in any way, but I don't think that this rule was intended to make the life of people more difficult. I guess if we were able to talk to the guy who made these rules up, he would be fine if we used an elevator or keys or electrical light - just don't do things that are not relaxing. Not being allowed to use computers and smartphones, however, could still be beneficial, because when there's virtually nothing you are actually allowed to do, it gives you time to self-reflect on yourself, which is something we do way to rarely in our modern world. People just function and do what they're expected to do, but they never find the time to reflect if the thing they're doing is actually worth doing and if it fills their life with joy or not...

"Maintaining the eruv's integrity is vitally important to its efficacy." - Right..... otherwise all of this would be totally ridiculous.

What does the second word at 4:02 mean? And why whenever I type it on KZread does my comment get immediately blocked by the profanity filter? Can you explain what the second word is and why it's offensive enough we're banned from saying it?

All you had to do was enter it on Google search. It has 2 meanings. Nation is apparently the direct Hebrew meaning/translation, or a slang (derogatory) name for someone who isn't Jewish. Which explains why it's blocked.

There is a similar wire at Bondi Beach, Sydney, Australia.

There's a very important point that's being ignored. TL;DR version: It's not finding ways around Biblical rules, it's Rabbis building loopholes into their own overly-strict stringencies. The Biblical prohibition only forbids carrying through specific types of public areas (public thoroughfares where many thousands of people pass daily). The Rabbis later made a stringency forbidding people from carrying through *any* non-private space, to prevent people from accidentally crossing a public thoroughfare. They then decided that this was too strict, so they made this loophole *around their own stringency*, but only when properly prepared (thereby making sure people think about where the permitted and forbidden areas are, decreasing the likelihood that one would cross a public thoroughfare accidentally). So it's not a loophole to get around God's word, it's a loophole to get around a Rabbinic stringency. The eruv does not allow one to carry over a public thoroughfare (such as a highway), as this would be a Biblical prohibition. A lot of Judaism is like this.

Excellent question! And because of that many Orthodox Jews will not even rely on the eruv in the incredibly populous Manhattan. This is the opinion of the most renown American rabbi of the last century, who himself was a resident of Manhattan’s Lower East Side.
