Watch a young Baal Shem Tov sing about emunah and bitachon as he seeks comfort and strength through spending time in the forest and pouring out his heart to Hashem in tefillah.
Tu B’Av was and is a time for achdus. Watch a young Baal Shem Tov sing about emunah and bitachon while his father, Reb Eliezer, encourages his son to “Love every Jew with the fire of your soul, no matter who they are or how they behave.”
Enjoy this music video from Ruchnii Studios (formerly Torah Luminations) who produced this animated short based on the song “A Yid”. The context of this music video is taken from the “Tales of the Baal Shem Tov” where five-year-old Yisroel has been orphaned by both his parents. He seeks comfort and strength through spending time in the forest and pouring out his heart to Hashem in tefillah.
To watch the portrayal of the childhood of the Baal Shem Tov, which includes this music video, please visit Ruchnii.com as part of their “Tales of the Baal Shem Tov” series.
