Fun fact: you can stop a golem by removing the first letter of the word "emeth" written on its forehead, so the word "meth" is left and the golem gets arrested by the DEA

Shoutout to the incredible tonal whiplash between "Who will tell us what God felt, looking at his Rabbi in Prague?" and "The golem really goes sicko mode."

Theres a part that Jacob doesnt narrate in the story that really makes me tear up

"Please!" Golem cried. "Please let me live! I did all that you asked of me! Life is so... Precious... to me!" With that, he collapsed into clay.
I want to believe Rabbi Loew had to recite Kaddish, for he truly believed he had destroyed his own child...

Picture this: I'm a Jewish writer and linguist, sitting at my desk wearing a Superman t-shirt. My friend sends me this video, and I start listening, thinking it'll be a nice, interesting podcast-esque thing to listen to while I send some emails. Thirty minutes later, I've sent no emails, and I'm crying at my desk. This video is everything I love most in the world, wrapped up into one beautiful package explaining why I love it so much. Thanks.

Imagine witnessing a pile of clay being bestowed life and the first conscious thought it has is âyou sure, bro?â

"Bad vibes are on the horizon for the Jews" sums up all of Jewish history.

Kal El might not have "Truth" written on his brow, but "Hope" is written on his chest

There's something so striking to me in the way the golem is naive and gentle, but also so profoundly aware of the weight its existence carries.

"The Jews in the story are just... Not having a good time"
This is one of ten lines I'd use to describe all of human history.

"Father, was this wise to do?"
Frankenstein's monster liked this.

The golem pleading to stay alive with the "I've done everything you've asked of me" just hit so hard and the book just expects you to move on after that page like ????? So powerful and so abrupt

The beginning of the Golem story is making me imagine a noir-style detective story with the Golem at the center. A huge clay man in a sweeping trench coat and a fedora with a glowing golden "emet" written on it, solving mysteries and punching Nazis.

"Father will I remember this?" Holy hell dude, thanks for the existential crisis.

Iâm Jewish. I grew up with the story of the golem, told to me by my dad, who has a tiny figurine of one hanging on a leather cord from a lamp, with a Jewish star on the other end. I remember playing Minecraft for the first time and getting so excited to see golems in the game, protecting people like theyâre meant to. After watching this video, I showed it to my dad and ever time I see this video, I feel very strong emotions. This story means so much to me, ever since I was a little kid. Thank you so much for making this video.

"The Golem goes around and kills a bunch of Nazis --- praxis!"
Beautiful.

âThe Golem really goes sicko modeâ now this is the kind of literature analysis that I can get behind
