Questionnaire on Ushpizin
1. The Ushpizin film, the main characters frequently refer to biblical figures as
their role models. Moshe and Mali often refer to Avraham and Sara as being
their role models. They particularly look up to Avraham and Sara since they feel
like on a few occasions their lives are very similar being able to relate to them.
Sara and Mali were both barons and that they both had guests. Moshe had
another model yet this one is not a biblical figure. Rabbi Nachman of Breslev
played a big influence in Moshe’s life. We see this when they say that they
would name their child Nachman and also the fact that when Moshe did teshuva
he joined the Breslev movement showing that Rabbi Nachman inspired him the
most.
2. In this film we see the traditional practices such as faith and belief in god,
receiving guests, prayer, repentance; these are actions shown throughout the film.
We see that there is alot of prayer going on whether it's formal or informal.
There are times when Moshe goes to synagogue and prays with everyone, other
times when he does the blessing on wine, food and so on, however there are
times when Moshe just talks to God asking him for miracles or just to help him
with his difficulties. Moreover, we see teshuvah repentance throughout the movie
towards another individual and towards god. We see that when Moshe took the
succah of another jew unintentionally he asked him for forgiveness. Towards God
he asks for forgiveness for sending his guests away. Emunah is a big factor in
the lives of Moshe and Mali. They were constantly believing in God's presence
and his help. They had no doubt that if they asked God for his help he would
send it and through this they received everything they needed. They were certain
that the more they prayed the more life would look up to them. Throughout the
film we see Moshe’s self control. When his unruly guests challenge him, he
refrains from losing his temper, despite the immense pressure. For example when
they used his etrog that had cost him 1000 shekel as a lemon he was very angry
but instead of lashing out at them and becoming violent he ran away to collect
his thoughts and calm down he also started talking to God. This is very difficult
to do and shows his strength. We see his self control on one more occasion
when his friend asked him to drink with him. He knew when it was enough and
told that it was it and turned his cup indicating he was done drinking. Charity
is another traditional practice that is shown in this film. When Mali and Moshe
get 1000 shekel from a donor they immediately give maaser (a tenth of their
money) to charity. They could have easily kept it justifying that they are also
poor yet instead they understood that giving maaser was greater. We know that
Moshe and Mali were very poor yet they try their best to prepare everything for
the holiday buying a sukkah, four species, wine, food and all of the necessities
for the holiday. This shows that they also keep the sabbath and holidays.
3. The people in ushpizin are not faced with opened miracles from God instead
the people and the challenges they encounter they interpret as a divine presence
and the communication of God in this world. The guests they had had proven
to be a challenge and by overcoming that challenge they would merit reward.
Moreover the guidance of the Rabbi suggested Moshe not to get angry and hen
the etrog was used as a lemon he controlled himself turning to God immediately
realizing that it was him who had given him a test.
4. Moshe and Mali demonstrate that by following the lifestyle that God wants them
to follow he provides all of the materialistic things for them. When praying to
god they were able to see miracles when inviting guests to their house even if
they weren't the best people to have around and we believe that because they
were able to overcome that challenge they were then granted with a son.
5. In my opinion Moshe realized that his old life wasn't very meaningful. We
know that from his past he murdered someone and that must've been a very
traumatic experience leading him to repent for his action and find something
that was more meaningful and that allowed him to repent for all of his past
actions.
6. Overall I think the lifestyle of orthodox is presented in both a positive and
negative way. We see that these people are all poor trying to make ends meet
and they really devote their whole life to torah and mitzvot yet somehow they
don't have to go to work they just study all day and pray and somehow they
get what they need and are able to survive. Even Though they don't have a
lavish lifestyle they are joyous and they stand united and that is something
money can't buy.

film we see Moshe’s self control. When his unruly guests challenge him, he
refrains from losing his temper, despite the immense pressure. For example when
they used his etrog that had cost him 1000 shekel as a lemon he was very angry
but instead of lashing out at them and becoming violent he ran away to collect
his thoughts and calm down he also started talking to God. This is very difficult
to do and shows his strength. We see his self control on one more occasion
when his friend asked him to drink with him. He knew when it was enough and
told that it was it and turned his cup indicating he was done drinking. Charity
is another traditional practice that is shown in this film. When Mali and Moshe
get 1000 shekel from a donor they immediately give maaser (a tenth of their
money) to charity. They could have easily kept it justifying that they are also
poor yet instead they understood that giving maaser was greater. We know that
Moshe and Mali were very poor yet they try their best to prepare everything for
the holiday buying a sukkah, four species, wine, food and all of the necessities
for the holiday. This shows that they also keep the sabbath and holidays.
45. The people in ushpizin are not faced with opened miracles from God instead
the people and the challenges they encounter they interpret as a divine presence
and the communication of God in this world. The guests they had had proven
to be a challenge and by overcoming that challenge they would merit reward.
Moreover the guidance of the Rabbi suggested Moshe not to get angry and hen
the etrog was used as a lemon he controlled himself turning to God immediately
realizing that it was him who had given him a test.
46. Moshe and Mali demonstrate that by following the lifestyle that God wants them
to follow he provides all of the materialistic things for them. When praying to
god they were able to see miracles when inviting guests to their house even if
they weren't the best people to have around and we believe that because they
were able to overcome that challenge they were then granted with a son.
47. In my opinion Moshe realized that his old life wasn't very meaningful. We
know that from his past he murdered someone and that must've been a very
traumatic experience leading him to repent for his action and find something
that was more meaningful and that allowed him to repent for all of his past
actions.
48. Overall I think the lifestyle of orthodox is presented in both a positive and
negative way. We see that these people are all poor trying to make ends meet
and they really devote their whole life to torah and mitzvot yet somehow they
don't have to go to work they just study all day and pray and somehow they
get what they need and are able to survive. Even Though they don't have a
lavish lifestyle they are joyous and they stand united and that is something
money can't buy.
49. The Ushpizin film, the main characters frequently refer to biblical figures as
their role models. Moshe and Mali often refer to Avraham and Sara as being
their role models. They particularly look up to Avraham and Sara since they feel
like on a few occasions their lives are very similar being able to relate to them.
Sara and Mali were both barons and that they both had guests. Moshe had
another model yet this one is not a biblical figure. Rabbi Nachman of Breslev
played a big influence in Moshe’s life. We see this when they say that they
would name their child Nachman and also the fact that when Moshe did teshuva
he joined the Breslev movement showing that Rabbi Nachman inspired him the
most.
50. In this film we see the traditional practices such as faith and belief in god,
receiving guests, prayer, repentance; these are actions shown throughout the film.
We see that there is alot of prayer going on whether it's formal or informal.
There are times when Moshe goes to synagogue and prays with everyone, other
times when he does the blessing on wine, food and so on, however there are
times when Moshe just talks to God asking him for miracles or just to help him
with his difficulties. Moreover, we see teshuvah repentance throughout the movie
towards another individual and towards god. We see that when Moshe took the
succah of another jew unintentionally he asked him for forgiveness. Towards God
he asks for forgiveness for sending his guests away. Emunah is a big factor in
the lives of Moshe and Mali. They were constantly believing in God's presence
and his help. They had no doubt that if they asked God for his help he would
send it and through this they received everything they needed. They were certain
that the more they prayed the more life would look up to them. Throughout the
film we see Moshe’s self control. When his unruly guests challenge him, he
refrains from losing his temper, despite the immense pressure. For example when

god they were able to see miracles when inviting guests to their house even if
they weren't the best people to have around and we believe that because they
were able to overcome that challenge they were then granted with a son.
89. In my opinion Moshe realized that his old life wasn't very meaningful. We
know that from his past he murdered someone and that must've been a very
traumatic experience leading him to repent for his action and find something
that was more meaningful and that allowed him to repent for all of his past
actions.
90. Overall I think the lifestyle of orthodox is presented in both a positive and
negative way. We see that these people are all poor trying to make ends meet
and they really devote their whole life to torah and mitzvot yet somehow they
don't have to go to work they just study all day and pray and somehow they
get what they need and are able to survive. Even Though they don't have a
lavish lifestyle they are joyous and they stand united and that is something
money can't buy.
91. The Ushpizin film, the main characters frequently refer to biblical figures as
their role models. Moshe and Mali often refer to Avraham and Sara as being
their role models. They particularly look up to Avraham and Sara since they feel
like on a few occasions their lives are very similar being able to relate to them.
Sara and Mali were both barons and that they both had guests. Moshe had
another model yet this one is not a biblical figure. Rabbi Nachman of Breslev
played a big influence in Moshe’s life. We see this when they say that they
would name their child Nachman and also the fact that when Moshe did teshuva
he joined the Breslev movement showing that Rabbi Nachman inspired him the
most.
92. In this film we see the traditional practices such as faith and belief in god,
receiving guests, prayer, repentance; these are actions shown throughout the film.
We see that there is alot of prayer going on whether it's formal or informal.
There are times when Moshe goes to synagogue and prays with everyone, other
times when he does the blessing on wine, food and so on, however there are
times when Moshe just talks to God asking him for miracles or just to help him
with his difficulties. Moreover, we see teshuvah repentance throughout the movie
towards another individual and towards god. We see that when Moshe took the
succah of another jew unintentionally he asked him for forgiveness. Towards God
he asks for forgiveness for sending his guests away. Emunah is a big factor in
the lives of Moshe and Mali. They were constantly believing in God's presence
and his help. They had no doubt that if they asked God for his help he would
send it and through this they received everything they needed. They were certain
that the more they prayed the more life would look up to them. Throughout the
film we see Moshe’s self control. When his unruly guests challenge him, he
refrains from losing his temper, despite the immense pressure. For example when
they used his etrog that had cost him 1000 shekel as a lemon he was very angry
but instead of lashing out at them and becoming violent he ran away to collect
his thoughts and calm down he also started talking to God. This is very difficult
to do and shows his strength. We see his self control on one more occasion
when his friend asked him to drink with him. He knew when it was enough and
told that it was it and turned his cup indicating he was done drinking. Charity
is another traditional practice that is shown in this film. When Mali and Moshe
get 1000 shekel from a donor they immediately give maaser (a tenth of their
money) to charity. They could have easily kept it justifying that they are also
poor yet instead they understood that giving maaser was greater. We know that
Moshe and Mali were very poor yet they try their best to prepare everything for
the holiday buying a sukkah, four species, wine, food and all of the necessities
for the holiday. This shows that they also keep the sabbath and holidays.
93. The people in ushpizin are not faced with opened miracles from God instead
the people and the challenges they encounter they interpret as a divine presence
and the communication of God in this world. The guests they had had proven
to be a challenge and by overcoming that challenge they would merit reward.
Moreover the guidance of the Rabbi suggested Moshe not to get angry and hen
the etrog was used as a lemon he controlled himself turning to God immediately
realizing that it was him who had given him a test.
94. Moshe and Mali demonstrate that by following the lifestyle that God wants them
to follow he provides all of the materialistic things for them. When praying to
god they were able to see miracles when inviting guests to their house even if

would name their child Nachman and also the fact that when Moshe did teshuva
he joined the Breslev movement showing that Rabbi Nachman inspired him the
most.
134. In this film we see the traditional practices such as faith and belief in
god, receiving guests, prayer, repentance; these are actions shown throughout the
film. We see that there is alot of prayer going on whether it's formal or informal.
There are times when Moshe goes to synagogue and prays with everyone, other
times when he does the blessing on wine, food and so on, however there are
times when Moshe just talks to God asking him for miracles or just to help him
with his difficulties. Moreover, we see teshuvah repentance throughout the movie
towards another individual and towards god. We see that when Moshe took the
succah of another jew unintentionally he asked him for forgiveness. Towards God
he asks for forgiveness for sending his guests away. Emunah is a big factor in
the lives of Moshe and Mali. They were constantly believing in God's presence
and his help. They had no doubt that if they asked God for his help he would
send it and through this they received everything they needed. They were certain
that the more they prayed the more life would look up to them. Throughout the
film we see Moshe’s self control. When his unruly guests challenge him, he
refrains from losing his temper, despite the immense pressure. For example when
they used his etrog that had cost him 1000 shekel as a lemon he was very angry
but instead of lashing out at them and becoming violent he ran away to collect
his thoughts and calm down he also started talking to God. This is very difficult
to do and shows his strength. We see his self control on one more occasion
when his friend asked him to drink with him. He knew when it was enough and
told that it was it and turned his cup indicating he was done drinking. Charity
is another traditional practice that is shown in this film. When Mali and Moshe
get 1000 shekel from a donor they immediately give maaser (a tenth of their
money) to charity. They could have easily kept it justifying that they are also
poor yet instead they understood that giving maaser was greater. We know that
Moshe and Mali were very poor yet they try their best to prepare everything for
the holiday buying a sukkah, four species, wine, food and all of the necessities
for the holiday. This shows that they also keep the sabbath and holidays.
135. The people in ushpizin are not faced with opened miracles from God
instead the people and the challenges they encounter they interpret as a divine
presence and the communication of God in this world. The guests they had had
proven to be a challenge and by overcoming that challenge they would merit
reward. Moreover the guidance of the Rabbi suggested Moshe not to get angry
and hen the etrog was used as a lemon he controlled himself turning to God
immediately realizing that it was him who had given him a test.
136. Moshe and Mali demonstrate that by following the lifestyle that God
wants them to follow he provides all of the materialistic things for them. When
praying to god they were able to see miracles when inviting guests to their
house even if they weren't the best people to have around and we believe that
because they were able to overcome that challenge they were then granted with
a son.
137. In my opinion Moshe realized that his old life wasn't very meaningful.
We know that from his past he murdered someone and that must've been a very
traumatic experience leading him to repent for his action and find something
that was more meaningful and that allowed him to repent for all of his past
actions.
138. Overall I think the lifestyle of orthodox is presented in both a positive
and negative way. We see that these people are all poor trying to make ends
meet and they really devote their whole life to torah and mitzvot yet somehow
they don't have to go to work they just study all day and pray and somehow
they get what they need and are able to survive. Even Though they don't have
a lavish lifestyle they are joyous and they stand united and that is something
money can't buy.
139. The Ushpizin film, the main characters frequently refer to biblical figures
as their role models. Moshe and Mali often refer to Avraham and Sara as being
their role models. They particularly look up to Avraham and Sara since they feel
like on a few occasions their lives are very similar being able to relate to them.
Sara and Mali were both barons and that they both had guests. Moshe had
another model yet this one is not a biblical figure. Rabbi Nachman of Breslev
played a big influence in Moshe’s life. We see this when they say that they
would name their child Nachman and also the fact that when Moshe did teshuva
he joined the Breslev movement showing that Rabbi Nachman inspired him the

his thoughts and calm down he also started talking to God. This is very difficult
to do and shows his strength. We see his self control on one more occasion
when his friend asked him to drink with him. He knew when it was enough and
told that it was it and turned his cup indicating he was done drinking. Charity
is another traditional practice that is shown in this film. When Mali and Moshe
get 1000 shekel from a donor they immediately give maaser (a tenth of their
money) to charity. They could have easily kept it justifying that they are also
poor yet instead they understood that giving maaser was greater. We know that
Moshe and Mali were very poor yet they try their best to prepare everything for
the holiday buying a sukkah, four species, wine, food and all of the necessities
for the holiday. This shows that they also keep the sabbath and holidays.
177. The people in ushpizin are not faced with opened miracles from God
instead the people and the challenges they encounter they interpret as a divine
presence and the communication of God in this world. The guests they had had
proven to be a challenge and by overcoming that challenge they would merit
reward. Moreover the guidance of the Rabbi suggested Moshe not to get angry
and hen the etrog was used as a lemon he controlled himself turning to God
immediately realizing that it was him who had given him a test.
178. Moshe and Mali demonstrate that by following the lifestyle that God
wants them to follow he provides all of the materialistic things for them. When
praying to god they were able to see miracles when inviting guests to their
house even if they weren't the best people to have around and we believe that
because they were able to overcome that challenge they were then granted with
a son.
179. In my opinion Moshe realized that his old life wasn't very meaningful.
We know that from his past he murdered someone and that must've been a very
traumatic experience leading him to repent for his action and find something
that was more meaningful and that allowed him to repent for all of his past
actions.
180. Overall I think the lifestyle of orthodox is presented in both a positive
and negative way. We see that these people are all poor trying to make ends
meet and they really devote their whole life to torah and mitzvot yet somehow
they don't have to go to work they just study all day and pray and somehow
they get what they need and are able to survive. Even Though they don't have
a lavish lifestyle they are joyous and they stand united and that is something
money can't buy.
181. The Ushpizin film, the main characters frequently refer to biblical figures
as their role models. Moshe and Mali often refer to Avraham and Sara as being
their role models. They particularly look up to Avraham and Sara since they feel
like on a few occasions their lives are very similar being able to relate to them.
Sara and Mali were both barons and that they both had guests. Moshe had
another model yet this one is not a biblical figure. Rabbi Nachman of Breslev
played a big influence in Moshe’s life. We see this when they say that they
would name their child Nachman and also the fact that when Moshe did teshuva
he joined the Breslev movement showing that Rabbi Nachman inspired him the
most.
182. In this film we see the traditional practices such as faith and belief in
god, receiving guests, prayer, repentance; these are actions shown throughout the
film. We see that there is alot of prayer going on whether it's formal or informal.
There are times when Moshe goes to synagogue and prays with everyone, other
times when he does the blessing on wine, food and so on, however there are
times when Moshe just talks to God asking him for miracles or just to help him
with his difficulties. Moreover, we see teshuvah repentance throughout the movie
towards another individual and towards god. We see that when Moshe took the
succah of another jew unintentionally he asked him for forgiveness. Towards God
he asks for forgiveness for sending his guests away. Emunah is a big factor in
the lives of Moshe and Mali. They were constantly believing in God's presence
and his help. They had no doubt that if they asked God for his help he would
send it and through this they received everything they needed. They were certain
that the more they prayed the more life would look up to them. Throughout the
film we see Moshe’s self control. When his unruly guests challenge him, he
refrains from losing his temper, despite the immense pressure. For example when
they used his etrog that had cost him 1000 shekel as a lemon he was very angry
but instead of lashing out at them and becoming violent he ran away to collect
his thoughts and calm down he also started talking to God. This is very difficult
to do and shows his strength. We see his self control on one more occasion

praying to god they were able to see miracles when inviting guests to their
house even if they weren't the best people to have around and we believe that
because they were able to overcome that challenge they were then granted with
a son.
221. In my opinion Moshe realized that his old life wasn't very meaningful.
We know that from his past he murdered someone and that must've been a very
traumatic experience leading him to repent for his action and find something
that was more meaningful and that allowed him to repent for all of his past
actions.
222. Overall I think the lifestyle of orthodox is presented in both a positive
and negative way. We see that these people are all poor trying to make ends
meet and they really devote their whole life to torah and mitzvot yet somehow
they don't have to go to work they just study all day and pray and somehow
they get what they need and are able to survive. Even Though they don't have
a lavish lifestyle they are joyous and they stand united and that is something
money can't buy.
223. The Ushpizin film, the main characters frequently refer to biblical figures
as their role models. Moshe and Mali often refer to Avraham and Sara as being
their role models. They particularly look up to Avraham and Sara since they feel
like on a few occasions their lives are very similar being able to relate to them.
Sara and Mali were both barons and that they both had guests. Moshe had
another model yet this one is not a biblical figure. Rabbi Nachman of Breslev
played a big influence in Moshe’s life. We see this when they say that they
would name their child Nachman and also the fact that when Moshe did teshuva
he joined the Breslev movement showing that Rabbi Nachman inspired him the
most.
224. In this film we see the traditional practices such as faith and belief in
god, receiving guests, prayer, repentance; these are actions shown throughout the
film. We see that there is alot of prayer going on whether it's formal or informal.
There are times when Moshe goes to synagogue and prays with everyone, other
times when he does the blessing on wine, food and so on, however there are
times when Moshe just talks to God asking him for miracles or just to help him
with his difficulties. Moreover, we see teshuvah repentance throughout the movie
towards another individual and towards god. We see that when Moshe took the
succah of another jew unintentionally he asked him for forgiveness. Towards God
he asks for forgiveness for sending his guests away. Emunah is a big factor in
the lives of Moshe and Mali. They were constantly believing in God's presence
and his help. They had no doubt that if they asked God for his help he would
send it and through this they received everything they needed. They were certain
that the more they prayed the more life would look up to them. Throughout the
film we see Moshe’s self control. When his unruly guests challenge him, he
refrains from losing his temper, despite the immense pressure. For example when
they used his etrog that had cost him 1000 shekel as a lemon he was very angry
but instead of lashing out at them and becoming violent he ran away to collect
his thoughts and calm down he also started talking to God. This is very difficult
to do and shows his strength. We see his self control on one more occasion
when his friend asked him to drink with him. He knew when it was enough and
told that it was it and turned his cup indicating he was done drinking. Charity
is another traditional practice that is shown in this film. When Mali and Moshe
get 1000 shekel from a donor they immediately give maaser (a tenth of their
money) to charity. They could have easily kept it justifying that they are also
poor yet instead they understood that giving maaser was greater. We know that
Moshe and Mali were very poor yet they try their best to prepare everything for
the holiday buying a sukkah, four species, wine, food and all of the necessities
for the holiday. This shows that they also keep the sabbath and holidays.
225. The people in ushpizin are not faced with opened miracles from God
instead the people and the challenges they encounter they interpret as a divine
presence and the communication of God in this world. The guests they had had
proven to be a challenge and by overcoming that challenge they would merit
reward. Moreover the guidance of the Rabbi suggested Moshe not to get angry
and hen the etrog was used as a lemon he controlled himself turning to God
immediately realizing that it was him who had given him a test.
226. Moshe and Mali demonstrate that by following the lifestyle that God
wants them to follow he provides all of the materialistic things for them. When

played a big influence in Moshe’s life. We see this when they say that they
would name their child Nachman and also the fact that when Moshe did teshuva
he joined the Breslev movement showing that Rabbi Nachman inspired him the
most.
266. In this film we see the traditional practices such as faith and belief in
god, receiving guests, prayer, repentance; these are actions shown throughout the
film. We see that there is alot of prayer going on whether it's formal or informal.
There are times when Moshe goes to synagogue and prays with everyone, other
times when he does the blessing on wine, food and so on, however there are
times when Moshe just talks to God asking him for miracles or just to help him
with his difficulties. Moreover, we see teshuvah repentance throughout the movie
towards another individual and towards god. We see that when Moshe took the
succah of another jew unintentionally he asked him for forgiveness. Towards God
he asks for forgiveness for sending his guests away. Emunah is a big factor in
the lives of Moshe and Mali. They were constantly believing in God's presence
and his help. They had no doubt that if they asked God for his help he would
send it and through this they received everything they needed. They were certain
that the more they prayed the more life would look up to them. Throughout the
film we see Moshe’s self control. When his unruly guests challenge him, he
refrains from losing his temper, despite the immense pressure. For example when
they used his etrog that had cost him 1000 shekel as a lemon he was very angry
but instead of lashing out at them and becoming violent he ran away to collect
his thoughts and calm down he also started talking to God. This is very difficult
to do and shows his strength. We see his self control on one more occasion
when his friend asked him to drink with him. He knew when it was enough and
told that it was it and turned his cup indicating he was done drinking. Charity
is another traditional practice that is shown in this film. When Mali and Moshe
get 1000 shekel from a donor they immediately give maaser (a tenth of their
money) to charity. They could have easily kept it justifying that they are also
poor yet instead they understood that giving maaser was greater. We know that
Moshe and Mali were very poor yet they try their best to prepare everything for
the holiday buying a sukkah, four species, wine, food and all of the necessities
for the holiday. This shows that they also keep the sabbath and holidays.
267. The people in ushpizin are not faced with opened miracles from God
instead the people and the challenges they encounter they interpret as a divine
presence and the communication of God in this world. The guests they had had
proven to be a challenge and by overcoming that challenge they would merit
reward. Moreover the guidance of the Rabbi suggested Moshe not to get angry
and hen the etrog was used as a lemon he controlled himself turning to God
immediately realizing that it was him who had given him a test.
268. Moshe and Mali demonstrate that by following the lifestyle that God
wants them to follow he provides all of the materialistic things for them. When
praying to god they were able to see miracles when inviting guests to their
house even if they weren't the best people to have around and we believe that
because they were able to overcome that challenge they were then granted with
a son.
269. In my opinion Moshe realized that his old life wasn't very meaningful.
We know that from his past he murdered someone and that must've been a very
traumatic experience leading him to repent for his action and find something
that was more meaningful and that allowed him to repent for all of his past
actions.
270. Overall I think the lifestyle of orthodox is presented in both a positive
and negative way. We see that these people are all poor trying to make ends
meet and they really devote their whole life to torah and mitzvot yet somehow
they don't have to go to work they just study all day and pray and somehow
they get what they need and are able to survive. Even Though they don't have
a lavish lifestyle they are joyous and they stand united and that is something
money can't buy.
271. The Ushpizin film, the main characters frequently refer to biblical figures
as their role models. Moshe and Mali often refer to Avraham and Sara as being
their role models. They particularly look up to Avraham and Sara since they feel
like on a few occasions their lives are very similar being able to relate to them.

but instead of lashing out at them and becoming violent he ran away to collect
his thoughts and calm down he also started talking to God. This is very difficult
to do and shows his strength. We see his self control on one more occasion
when his friend asked him to drink with him. He knew when it was enough and
told that it was it and turned his cup indicating he was done drinking. Charity
is another traditional practice that is shown in this film. When Mali and Moshe
get 1000 shekel from a donor they immediately give maaser (a tenth of their
money) to charity. They could have easily kept it justifying that they are also
poor yet instead they understood that giving maaser was greater. We know that
Moshe and Mali were very poor yet they try their best to prepare everything for
the holiday buying a sukkah, four species, wine, food and all of the necessities
for the holiday. This shows that they also keep the sabbath and holidays.
309. The people in ushpizin are not faced with opened miracles from God
instead the people and the challenges they encounter they interpret as a divine
presence and the communication of God in this world. The guests they had had
proven to be a challenge and by overcoming that challenge they would merit
reward. Moreover the guidance of the Rabbi suggested Moshe not to get angry
and hen the etrog was used as a lemon he controlled himself turning to God
immediately realizing that it was him who had given him a test.
310. Moshe and Mali demonstrate that by following the lifestyle that God
wants them to follow he provides all of the materialistic things for them. When
praying to god they were able to see miracles when inviting guests to their
house even if they weren't the best people to have around and we believe that
because they were able to overcome that challenge they were then granted with
a son.
311. In my opinion Moshe realized that his old life wasn't very meaningful.
We know that from his past he murdered someone and that must've been a very
traumatic experience leading him to repent for his action and find something
that was more meaningful and that allowed him to repent for all of his past
actions.
312. Overall I think the lifestyle of orthodox is presented in both a positive
and negative way. We see that these people are all poor trying to make ends
meet and they really devote their whole life to torah and mitzvot yet somehow
they don't have to go to work they just study all day and pray and somehow
they get what they need and are able to survive. Even Though they don't have
a lavish lifestyle they are joyous and they stand united and that is something
money can't buy.
313. The Ushpizin film, the main characters frequently refer to biblical figures
as their role models. Moshe and Mali often refer to Avraham and Sara as being
their role models. They particularly look up to Avraham and Sara since they feel
like on a few occasions their lives are very similar being able to relate to them.
Sara and Mali were both barons and that they both had guests. Moshe had
another model yet this one is not a biblical figure. Rabbi Nachman of Breslev
played a big influence in Moshe’s life. We see this when they say that they
would name their child Nachman and also the fact that when Moshe did teshuva
he joined the Breslev movement showing that Rabbi Nachman inspired him the
most.
314. In this film we see the traditional practices such as faith and belief in
god, receiving guests, prayer, repentance; these are actions shown throughout the
film. We see that there is alot of prayer going on whether it's formal or informal.
There are times when Moshe goes to synagogue and prays with everyone, other
times when he does the blessing on wine, food and so on, however there are
times when Moshe just talks to God asking him for miracles or just to help him
with his difficulties. Moreover, we see teshuvah repentance throughout the movie
towards another individual and towards god. We see that when Moshe took the
succah of another jew unintentionally he asked him for forgiveness. Towards God
he asks for forgiveness for sending his guests away. Emunah is a big factor in
the lives of Moshe and Mali. They were constantly believing in God's presence
and his help. They had no doubt that if they asked God for his help he would
send it and through this they received everything they needed. They were certain
that the more they prayed the more life would look up to them. Throughout the
film we see Moshe’s self control. When his unruly guests challenge him, he
refrains from losing his temper, despite the immense pressure. For example when
they used his etrog that had cost him 1000 shekel as a lemon he was very angry
but instead of lashing out at them and becoming violent he ran away to collect
his thoughts and calm down he also started talking to God. This is very difficult

wants them to follow he provides all of the materialistic things for them. When
praying to god they were able to see miracles when inviting guests to their
house even if they weren't the best people to have around and we believe that
because they were able to overcome that challenge they were then granted with
a son.
353. In my opinion Moshe realized that his old life wasn't very meaningful.
We know that from his past he murdered someone and that must've been a very
traumatic experience leading him to repent for his action and find something
that was more meaningful and that allowed him to repent for all of his past
actions.
354. Overall I think the lifestyle of orthodox is presented in both a positive
and negative way. We see that these people are all poor trying to make ends
meet and they really devote their whole life to torah and mitzvot yet somehow
they don't have to go to work they just study all day and pray and somehow
they get what they need and are able to survive. Even Though they don't have
a lavish lifestyle they are joyous and they stand united and that is something
money can't buy.
355. The Ushpizin film, the main characters frequently refer to biblical figures
as their role models. Moshe and Mali often refer to Avraham and Sara as being
their role models. They particularly look up to Avraham and Sara since they feel
like on a few occasions their lives are very similar being able to relate to them.
Sara and Mali were both barons and that they both had guests. Moshe had
another model yet this one is not a biblical figure. Rabbi Nachman of Breslev
played a big influence in Moshe’s life. We see this when they say that they
would name their child Nachman and also the fact that when Moshe did teshuva
he joined the Breslev movement showing that Rabbi Nachman inspired him the
most.
356. In this film we see the traditional practices such as faith and belief in
god, receiving guests, prayer, repentance; these are actions shown throughout the
film. We see that there is alot of prayer going on whether it's formal or informal.
There are times when Moshe goes to synagogue and prays with everyone, other
times when he does the blessing on wine, food and so on, however there are
times when Moshe just talks to God asking him for miracles or just to help him
with his difficulties. Moreover, we see teshuvah repentance throughout the movie
towards another individual and towards god. We see that when Moshe took the
succah of another jew unintentionally he asked him for forgiveness. Towards God
he asks for forgiveness for sending his guests away. Emunah is a big factor in
the lives of Moshe and Mali. They were constantly believing in God's presence
and his help. They had no doubt that if they asked God for his help he would
send it and through this they received everything they needed. They were certain
that the more they prayed the more life would look up to them. Throughout the
film we see Moshe’s self control. When his unruly guests challenge him, he
refrains from losing his temper, despite the immense pressure. For example when
they used his etrog that had cost him 1000 shekel as a lemon he was very angry
but instead of lashing out at them and becoming violent he ran away to collect
his thoughts and calm down he also started talking to God. This is very difficult
to do and shows his strength. We see his self control on one more occasion
when his friend asked him to drink with him. He knew when it was enough and
told that it was it and turned his cup indicating he was done drinking. Charity
is another traditional practice that is shown in this film. When Mali and Moshe
get 1000 shekel from a donor they immediately give maaser (a tenth of their
money) to charity. They could have easily kept it justifying that they are also
poor yet instead they understood that giving maaser was greater. We know that
Moshe and Mali were very poor yet they try their best to prepare everything for
the holiday buying a sukkah, four species, wine, food and all of the necessities
for the holiday. This shows that they also keep the sabbath and holidays.
357. The people in ushpizin are not faced with opened miracles from God
instead the people and the challenges they encounter they interpret as a divine
presence and the communication of God in this world. The guests they had had
proven to be a challenge and by overcoming that challenge they would merit
reward. Moreover the guidance of the Rabbi suggested Moshe not to get angry
and hen the etrog was used as a lemon he controlled himself turning to God
immediately realizing that it was him who had given him a test.
358. Moshe and Mali demonstrate that by following the lifestyle that God
wants them to follow he provides all of the materialistic things for them. When
praying to god they were able to see miracles when inviting guests to their

another model yet this one is not a biblical figure. Rabbi Nachman of Breslev
played a big influence in Moshe’s life. We see this when they say that they
would name their child Nachman and also the fact that when Moshe did teshuva
he joined the Breslev movement showing that Rabbi Nachman inspired him the
most.
398. In this film we see the traditional practices such as faith and belief in
god, receiving guests, prayer, repentance; these are actions shown throughout the
film. We see that there is alot of prayer going on whether it's formal or informal.
There are times when Moshe goes to synagogue and prays with everyone, other
times when he does the blessing on wine, food and so on, however there are
times when Moshe just talks to God asking him for miracles or just to help him
with his difficulties. Moreover, we see teshuvah repentance throughout the movie
towards another individual and towards god. We see that when Moshe took the
succah of another jew unintentionally he asked him for forgiveness. Towards God
he asks for forgiveness for sending his guests away. Emunah is a big factor in
the lives of Moshe and Mali. They were constantly believing in God's presence
and his help. They had no doubt that if they asked God for his help he would
send it and through this they received everything they needed. They were certain
that the more they prayed the more life would look up to them. Throughout the
film we see Moshe’s self control. When his unruly guests challenge him, he
refrains from losing his temper, despite the immense pressure. For example when
they used his etrog that had cost him 1000 shekel as a lemon he was very angry
but instead of lashing out at them and becoming violent he ran away to collect
his thoughts and calm down he also started talking to God. This is very difficult
to do and shows his strength. We see his self control on one more occasion
when his friend asked him to drink with him. He knew when it was enough and
told that it was it and turned his cup indicating he was done drinking. Charity
is another traditional practice that is shown in this film. When Mali and Moshe
get 1000 shekel from a donor they immediately give maaser (a tenth of their
money) to charity. They could have easily kept it justifying that they are also
poor yet instead they understood that giving maaser was greater. We know that
Moshe and Mali were very poor yet they try their best to prepare everything for
the holiday buying a sukkah, four species, wine, food and all of the necessities
for the holiday. This shows that they also keep the sabbath and holidays.
399. The people in ushpizin are not faced with opened miracles from God
instead the people and the challenges they encounter they interpret as a divine
presence and the communication of God in this world. The guests they had had
proven to be a challenge and by overcoming that challenge they would merit
reward. Moreover the guidance of the Rabbi suggested Moshe not to get angry
and hen the etrog was used as a lemon he controlled himself turning to God
immediately realizing that it was him who had given him a test.
400. Moshe and Mali demonstrate that by following the lifestyle that God
wants them to follow he provides all of the materialistic things for them. When
praying to god they were able to see miracles when inviting guests to their
house even if they weren't the best people to have around and we believe that
because they were able to overcome that challenge they were then granted with
a son.
401. In my opinion Moshe realized that his old life wasn't very meaningful.
We know that from his past he murdered someone and that must've been a very
traumatic experience leading him to repent for his action and find something
that was more meaningful and that allowed him to repent for all of his past
actions.
402. Overall I think the lifestyle of orthodox is presented in both a positive
and negative way. We see that these people are all poor trying to make ends
meet and they really devote their whole life to torah and mitzvot yet somehow
they don't have to go to work they just study all day and pray and somehow
they get what they need and are able to survive. Even Though they don't have
a lavish lifestyle they are joyous and they stand united and that is something
money can't buy.
403. The Ushpizin film, the main characters frequently refer to biblical figures
as their role models. Moshe and Mali often refer to Avraham and Sara as being

like on a few occasions their lives are very similar being able to relate to them.

they used his etrog that had cost him 1000 shekel as a lemon he was very angry
but instead of lashing out at them and becoming violent he ran away to collect
his thoughts and calm down he also started talking to God. This is very difficult
to do and shows his strength. We see his self control on one more occasion
when his friend asked him to drink with him. He knew when it was enough and
told that it was it and turned his cup indicating he was done drinking. Charity
is another traditional practice that is shown in this film. When Mali and Moshe
get 1000 shekel from a donor they immediately give maaser (a tenth of their
money) to charity. They could have easily kept it justifying that they are also
poor yet instead they understood that giving maaser was greater. We know that
Moshe and Mali were very poor yet they try their best to prepare everything for
the holiday buying a sukkah, four species, wine, food and all of the necessities
for the holiday. This shows that they also keep the sabbath and holidays.
441. The people in ushpizin are not faced with opened miracles from God
instead the people and the challenges they encounter they interpret as a divine
presence and the communication of God in this world. The guests they had had
proven to be a challenge and by overcoming that challenge they would merit
reward. Moreover the guidance of the Rabbi suggested Moshe not to get angry
and hen the etrog was used as a lemon he controlled himself turning to God
immediately realizing that it was him who had given him a test.
442. Moshe and Mali demonstrate that by following the lifestyle that God
wants them to follow he provides all of the materialistic things for them. When
praying to god they were able to see miracles when inviting guests to their
house even if they weren't the best people to have around and we believe that
because they were able to overcome that challenge they were then granted with
a son.
443. In my opinion Moshe realized that his old life wasn't very meaningful.
We know that from his past he murdered someone and that must've been a very
traumatic experience leading him to repent for his action and find something
that was more meaningful and that allowed him to repent for all of his past
actions.
444. Overall I think the lifestyle of orthodox is presented in both a positive
and negative way. We see that these people are all poor trying to make ends
meet and they really devote their whole life to torah and mitzvot yet somehow
they don't have to go to work they just study all day and pray and somehow
they get what they need and are able to survive. Even Though they don't have
a lavish lifestyle they are joyous and they stand united and that is something
money can't buy.
445. The Ushpizin film, the main characters frequently refer to biblical figures
as their role models. Moshe and Mali often refer to Avraham and Sara as being
their role models. They particularly look up to Avraham and Sara since they feel
like on a few occasions their lives are very similar being able to relate to them.
Sara and Mali were both barons and that they both had guests. Moshe had
another model yet this one is not a biblical figure. Rabbi Nachman of Breslev
played a big influence in Moshe’s life. We see this when they say that they
would name their child Nachman and also the fact that when Moshe did teshuva
he joined the Breslev movement showing that Rabbi Nachman inspired him the
most.
446. In this film we see the traditional practices such as faith and belief in
god, receiving guests, prayer, repentance; these are actions shown throughout the
film. We see that there is alot of prayer going on whether it's formal or informal.
There are times when Moshe goes to synagogue and prays with everyone, other
times when he does the blessing on wine, food and so on, however there are
times when Moshe just talks to God asking him for miracles or just to help him
with his difficulties. Moreover, we see teshuvah repentance throughout the movie
towards another individual and towards god. We see that when Moshe took the
succah of another jew unintentionally he asked him for forgiveness. Towards God
he asks for forgiveness for sending his guests away. Emunah is a big factor in
the lives of Moshe and Mali. They were constantly believing in God's presence
and his help. They had no doubt that if they asked God for his help he would
send it and through this they received everything they needed. They were certain
that the more they prayed the more life would look up to them. Throughout the
film we see Moshe’s self control. When his unruly guests challenge him, he
refrains from losing his temper, despite the immense pressure. For example when
they used his etrog that had cost him 1000 shekel as a lemon he was very angry

484. Moshe and Mali demonstrate that by following the lifestyle that God
wants them to follow he provides all of the materialistic things for them. When
praying to god they were able to see miracles when inviting guests to their
house even if they weren't the best people to have around and we believe that
because they were able to overcome that challenge they were then granted with
a son.
485. In my opinion Moshe realized that his old life wasn't very meaningful.
We know that from his past he murdered someone and that must've been a very
traumatic experience leading him to repent for his action and find something
that was more meaningful and that allowed him to repent for all of his past
actions.
486. Overall I think the lifestyle of orthodox is presented in both a positive
and negative way. We see that these people are all poor trying to make ends
meet and they really devote their whole life to torah and mitzvot yet somehow
they don't have to go to work they just study all day and pray and somehow
they get what they need and are able to survive. Even Though they don't have
a lavish lifestyle they are joyous and they stand united and that is something
money can't buy.
487. The Ushpizin film, the main characters frequently refer to biblical figures
as their role models. Moshe and Mali often refer to Avraham and Sara as being
their role models. They particularly look up to Avraham and Sara since they feel
like on a few occasions their lives are very similar being able to relate to them.
Sara and Mali were both barons and that they both had guests. Moshe had
another model yet this one is not a biblical figure. Rabbi Nachman of Breslev
played a big influence in Moshe’s life. We see this when they say that they
would name their child Nachman and also the fact that when Moshe did teshuva
he joined the Breslev movement showing that Rabbi Nachman inspired him the
most.
488. In this film we see the traditional practices such as faith and belief in
god, receiving guests, prayer, repentance; these are actions shown throughout the
film. We see that there is alot of prayer going on whether it's formal or informal.
There are times when Moshe goes to synagogue and prays with everyone, other
times when he does the blessing on wine, food and so on, however there are
times when Moshe just talks to God asking him for miracles or just to help him
with his difficulties. Moreover, we see teshuvah repentance throughout the movie
towards another individual and towards god. We see that when Moshe took the
succah of another jew unintentionally he asked him for forgiveness. Towards God
he asks for forgiveness for sending his guests away. Emunah is a big factor in
the lives of Moshe and Mali. They were constantly believing in God's presence
and his help. They had no doubt that if they asked God for his help he would
send it and through this they received everything they needed. They were certain
that the more they prayed the more life would look up to them. Throughout the
film we see Moshe’s self control. When his unruly guests challenge him, he
refrains from losing his temper, despite the immense pressure. For example when
they used his etrog that had cost him 1000 shekel as a lemon he was very angry
but instead of lashing out at them and becoming violent he ran away to collect
his thoughts and calm down he also started talking to God. This is very difficult
to do and shows his strength. We see his self control on one more occasion
when his friend asked him to drink with him. He knew when it was enough and
told that it was it and turned his cup indicating he was done drinking. Charity
is another traditional practice that is shown in this film. When Mali and Moshe
get 1000 shekel from a donor they immediately give maaser (a tenth of their
money) to charity. They could have easily kept it justifying that they are also
poor yet instead they understood that giving maaser was greater. We know that
Moshe and Mali were very poor yet they try their best to prepare everything for
the holiday buying a sukkah, four species, wine, food and all of the necessities
for the holiday. This shows that they also keep the sabbath and holidays.
489. The people in ushpizin are not faced with opened miracles from God
instead the people and the challenges they encounter they interpret as a divine
presence and the communication of God in this world. The guests they had had
proven to be a challenge and by overcoming that challenge they would merit
reward. Moreover the guidance of the Rabbi suggested Moshe not to get angry
and hen the etrog was used as a lemon he controlled himself turning to God
immediately realizing that it was him who had given him a test.
490. Moshe and Mali demonstrate that by following the lifestyle that God

another model yet this one is not a biblical figure. Rabbi Nachman of Breslev
played a big influence in Moshe’s life. We see this when they say that they
would name their child Nachman and also the fact that when Moshe did teshuva
he joined the Breslev movement showing that Rabbi Nachman inspired him the
most.
530. In this film we see the traditional practices such as faith and belief in
god, receiving guests, prayer, repentance; these are actions shown throughout the
film. We see that there is alot of prayer going on whether it's formal or informal.
There are times when Moshe goes to synagogue and prays with everyone, other
times when he does the blessing on wine, food and so on, however there are
times when Moshe just talks to God asking him for miracles or just to help him
with his difficulties. Moreover, we see teshuvah repentance throughout the movie
towards another individual and towards god. We see that when Moshe took the
succah of another jew unintentionally he asked him for forgiveness. Towards God
he asks for forgiveness for sending his guests away. Emunah is a big factor in
the lives of Moshe and Mali. They were constantly believing in God's presence
and his help. They had no doubt that if they asked God for his help he would
send it and through this they received everything they needed. They were certain
that the more they prayed the more life would look up to them. Throughout the
film we see Moshe’s self control. When his unruly guests challenge him, he
refrains from losing his temper, despite the immense pressure. For example when
they used his etrog that had cost him 1000 shekel as a lemon he was very angry
but instead of lashing out at them and becoming violent he ran away to collect
his thoughts and calm down he also started talking to God. This is very difficult
to do and shows his strength. We see his self control on one more occasion
when his friend asked him to drink with him. He knew when it was enough and
told that it was it and turned his cup indicating he was done drinking. Charity
is another traditional practice that is shown in this film. When Mali and Moshe
get 1000 shekel from a donor they immediately give maaser (a tenth of their
money) to charity. They could have easily kept it justifying that they are also
poor yet instead they understood that giving maaser was greater. We know that
Moshe and Mali were very poor yet they try their best to prepare everything for
the holiday buying a sukkah, four species, wine, food and all of the necessities
for the holiday. This shows that they also keep the sabbath and holidays.
531. The people in ushpizin are not faced with opened miracles from God
instead the people and the challenges they encounter they interpret as a divine
presence and the communication of God in this world. The guests they had had
proven to be a challenge and by overcoming that challenge they would merit
reward. Moreover the guidance of the Rabbi suggested Moshe not to get angry
and hen the etrog was used as a lemon he controlled himself turning to God
immediately realizing that it was him who had given him a test.
532. Moshe and Mali demonstrate that by following the lifestyle that God
wants them to follow he provides all of the materialistic things for them. When
praying to god they were able to see miracles when inviting guests to their
house even if they weren't the best people to have around and we believe that
because they were able to overcome that challenge they were then granted with
a son.
533. In my opinion Moshe realized that his old life wasn't very meaningful.
We know that from his past he murdered someone and that must've been a very
traumatic experience leading him to repent for his action and find something
that was more meaningful and that allowed him to repent for all of his past
actions.
534. Overall I think the lifestyle of orthodox is presented in both a positive
and negative way. We see that these people are all poor trying to make ends
meet and they really devote their whole life to torah and mitzvot yet somehow
they don't have to go to work they just study all day and pray and somehow
they get what they need and are able to survive. Even Though they don't have
a lavish lifestyle they are joyous and they stand united and that is something
money can't buy.
535. The Ushpizin film, the main characters frequently refer to biblical figures
as their role models. Moshe and Mali often refer to Avraham and Sara as being

like on a few occasions their lives are very similar being able to relate to them.

they used his etrog that had cost him 1000 shekel as a lemon he was very angry
but instead of lashing out at them and becoming violent he ran away to collect
his thoughts and calm down he also started talking to God. This is very difficult
to do and shows his strength. We see his self control on one more occasion
when his friend asked him to drink with him. He knew when it was enough and
told that it was it and turned his cup indicating he was done drinking. Charity
is another traditional practice that is shown in this film. When Mali and Moshe
get 1000 shekel from a donor they immediately give maaser (a tenth of their
money) to charity. They could have easily kept it justifying that they are also
poor yet instead they understood that giving maaser was greater. We know that
Moshe and Mali were very poor yet they try their best to prepare everything for
the holiday buying a sukkah, four species, wine, food and all of the necessities
for the holiday. This shows that they also keep the sabbath and holidays.
573. The people in ushpizin are not faced with opened miracles from God
instead the people and the challenges they encounter they interpret as a divine
presence and the communication of God in this world. The guests they had had
proven to be a challenge and by overcoming that challenge they would merit
reward. Moreover the guidance of the Rabbi suggested Moshe not to get angry
and hen the etrog was used as a lemon he controlled himself turning to God
immediately realizing that it was him who had given him a test.
574. Moshe and Mali demonstrate that by following the lifestyle that God
wants them to follow he provides all of the materialistic things for them. When
praying to god they were able to see miracles when inviting guests to their
house even if they weren't the best people to have around and we believe that
because they were able to overcome that challenge they were then granted with
a son.
575. In my opinion Moshe realized that his old life wasn't very meaningful.
We know that from his past he murdered someone and that must've been a very
traumatic experience leading him to repent for his action and find something
that was more meaningful and that allowed him to repent for all of his past
actions.
576. Overall I think the lifestyle of orthodox is presented in both a positive
and negative way. We see that these people are all poor trying to make ends
meet and they really devote their whole life to torah and mitzvot yet somehow
they don't have to go to work they just study all day and pray and somehow
they get what they need and are able to survive. Even Though they don't have
a lavish lifestyle they are joyous and they stand united and that is something
money can't buy.
577. The Ushpizin film, the main characters frequently refer to biblical figures
as their role models. Moshe and Mali often refer to Avraham and Sara as being
their role models. They particularly look up to Avraham and Sara since they feel
like on a few occasions their lives are very similar being able to relate to them.
Sara and Mali were both barons and that they both had guests. Moshe had
another model yet this one is not a biblical figure. Rabbi Nachman of Breslev
played a big influence in Moshe’s life. We see this when they say that they
would name their child Nachman and also the fact that when Moshe did teshuva
he joined the Breslev movement showing that Rabbi Nachman inspired him the
most.
578. In this film we see the traditional practices such as faith and belief in
god, receiving guests, prayer, repentance; these are actions shown throughout the
film. We see that there is alot of prayer going on whether it's formal or informal.
There are times when Moshe goes to synagogue and prays with everyone, other
times when he does the blessing on wine, food and so on, however there are
times when Moshe just talks to God asking him for miracles or just to help him
with his difficulties. Moreover, we see teshuvah repentance throughout the movie
towards another individual and towards god. We see that when Moshe took the
succah of another jew unintentionally he asked him for forgiveness. Towards God
he asks for forgiveness for sending his guests away. Emunah is a big factor in
the lives of Moshe and Mali. They were constantly believing in God's presence
and his help. They had no doubt that if they asked God for his help he would
send it and through this they received everything they needed. They were certain
that the more they prayed the more life would look up to them. Throughout the
film we see Moshe’s self control. When his unruly guests challenge him, he
refrains from losing his temper, despite the immense pressure. For example when
they used his etrog that had cost him 1000 shekel as a lemon he was very angry

616. Moshe and Mali demonstrate that by following the lifestyle that God
wants them to follow he provides all of the materialistic things for them. When
praying to god they were able to see miracles when inviting guests to their
house even if they weren't the best people to have around and we believe that
because they were able to overcome that challenge they were then granted with
a son.
617. In my opinion Moshe realized that his old life wasn't very meaningful.
We know that from his past he murdered someone and that must've been a very
traumatic experience leading him to repent for his action and find something
that was more meaningful and that allowed him to repent for all of his past
actions.
618. Overall I think the lifestyle of orthodox is presented in both a positive
and negative way. We see that these people are all poor trying to make ends
meet and they really devote their whole life to torah and mitzvot yet somehow
they don't have to go to work they just study all day and pray and somehow
they get what they need and are able to survive. Even Though they don't have
a lavish lifestyle they are joyous and they stand united and that is something
money can't buy.
619. The Ushpizin film, the main characters frequently refer to biblical figures
as their role models. Moshe and Mali often refer to Avraham and Sara as being
their role models. They particularly look up to Avraham and Sara since they feel
like on a few occasions their lives are very similar being able to relate to them.
Sara and Mali were both barons and that they both had guests. Moshe had
another model yet this one is not a biblical figure. Rabbi Nachman of Breslev
played a big influence in Moshe’s life. We see this when they say that they
would name their child Nachman and also the fact that when Moshe did teshuva
he joined the Breslev movement showing that Rabbi Nachman inspired him the
most.
620. In this film we see the traditional practices such as faith and belief in
god, receiving guests, prayer, repentance; these are actions shown throughout the
film. We see that there is alot of prayer going on whether it's formal or informal.
There are times when Moshe goes to synagogue and prays with everyone, other
times when he does the blessing on wine, food and so on, however there are
times when Moshe just talks to God asking him for miracles or just to help him
with his difficulties. Moreover, we see teshuvah repentance throughout the movie
towards another individual and towards god. We see that when Moshe took the
succah of another jew unintentionally he asked him for forgiveness. Towards God
he asks for forgiveness for sending his guests away. Emunah is a big factor in
the lives of Moshe and Mali. They were constantly believing in God's presence
and his help. They had no doubt that if they asked God for his help he would
send it and through this they received everything they needed. They were certain
that the more they prayed the more life would look up to them. Throughout the
film we see Moshe’s self control. When his unruly guests challenge him, he
refrains from losing his temper, despite the immense pressure. For example when
they used his etrog that had cost him 1000 shekel as a lemon he was very angry
but instead of lashing out at them and becoming violent he ran away to collect
his thoughts and calm down he also started talking to God. This is very difficult
to do and shows his strength. We see his self control on one more occasion
when his friend asked him to drink with him. He knew when it was enough and
told that it was it and turned his cup indicating he was done drinking. Charity
is another traditional practice that is shown in this film. When Mali and Moshe
get 1000 shekel from a donor they immediately give maaser (a tenth of their
money) to charity. They could have easily kept it justifying that they are also
poor yet instead they understood that giving maaser was greater. We know that
Moshe and Mali were very poor yet they try their best to prepare everything for
the holiday buying a sukkah, four species, wine, food and all of the necessities
for the holiday. This shows that they also keep the sabbath and holidays.
621. The people in ushpizin are not faced with opened miracles from God
instead the people and the challenges they encounter they interpret as a divine
presence and the communication of God in this world. The guests they had had
proven to be a challenge and by overcoming that challenge they would merit
reward. Moreover the guidance of the Rabbi suggested Moshe not to get angry
and hen the etrog was used as a lemon he controlled himself turning to God
immediately realizing that it was him who had given him a test.
622. Moshe and Mali demonstrate that by following the lifestyle that God
wants them to follow he provides all of the materialistic things for them. When

another model yet this one is not a biblical figure. Rabbi Nachman of Breslev
played a big influence in Moshe’s life. We see this when they say that they
would name their child Nachman and also the fact that when Moshe did teshuva
he joined the Breslev movement showing that Rabbi Nachman inspired him the
most.
662. In this film we see the traditional practices such as faith and belief in
god, receiving guests, prayer, repentance; these are actions shown throughout the
film. We see that there is alot of prayer going on whether it's formal or informal.
There are times when Moshe goes to synagogue and prays with everyone, other
times when he does the blessing on wine, food and so on, however there are
times when Moshe just talks to God asking him for miracles or just to help him
with his difficulties. Moreover, we see teshuvah repentance throughout the movie
towards another individual and towards god. We see that when Moshe took the
succah of another jew unintentionally he asked him for forgiveness. Towards God
he asks for forgiveness for sending his guests away. Emunah is a big factor in
the lives of Moshe and Mali. They were constantly believing in God's presence
and his help. They had no doubt that if they asked God for his help he would
send it and through this they received everything they needed. They were certain
that the more they prayed the more life would look up to them. Throughout the
film we see Moshe’s self control. When his unruly guests challenge him, he
refrains from losing his temper, despite the immense pressure. For example when
they used his etrog that had cost him 1000 shekel as a lemon he was very angry
but instead of lashing out at them and becoming violent he ran away to collect
his thoughts and calm down he also started talking to God. This is very difficult
to do and shows his strength. We see his self control on one more occasion
when his friend asked him to drink with him. He knew when it was enough and
told that it was it and turned his cup indicating he was done drinking. Charity
is another traditional practice that is shown in this film. When Mali and Moshe
get 1000 shekel from a donor they immediately give maaser (a tenth of their
money) to charity. They could have easily kept it justifying that they are also
poor yet instead they understood that giving maaser was greater. We know that
Moshe and Mali were very poor yet they try their best to prepare everything for
the holiday buying a sukkah, four species, wine, food and all of the necessities
for the holiday. This shows that they also keep the sabbath and holidays.
663. The people in ushpizin are not faced with opened miracles from God
instead the people and the challenges they encounter they interpret as a divine
presence and the communication of God in this world. The guests they had had
proven to be a challenge and by overcoming that challenge they would merit
reward. Moreover the guidance of the Rabbi suggested Moshe not to get angry
and hen the etrog was used as a lemon he controlled himself turning to God
immediately realizing that it was him who had given him a test.
664. Moshe and Mali demonstrate that by following the lifestyle that God
wants them to follow he provides all of the materialistic things for them. When
praying to god they were able to see miracles when inviting guests to their
house even if they weren't the best people to have around and we believe that
because they were able to overcome that challenge they were then granted with
a son.
665. In my opinion Moshe realized that his old life wasn't very meaningful.
We know that from his past he murdered someone and that must've been a very
traumatic experience leading him to repent for his action and find something
that was more meaningful and that allowed him to repent for all of his past
actions.
666. Overall I think the lifestyle of orthodox is presented in both a positive
and negative way. We see that these people are all poor trying to make ends
meet and they really devote their whole life to torah and mitzvot yet somehow
they don't have to go to work they just study all day and pray and somehow
they get what they need and are able to survive. Even Though they don't have
a lavish lifestyle they are joyous and they stand united and that is something
money can't buy.
667. The Ushpizin film, the main characters frequently refer to biblical figures
as their role models. Moshe and Mali often refer to Avraham and Sara as being

they used his etrog that had cost him 1000 shekel as a lemon he was very angry
but instead of lashing out at them and becoming violent he ran away to collect
his thoughts and calm down he also started talking to God. This is very difficult
to do and shows his strength. We see his self control on one more occasion
when his friend asked him to drink with him. He knew when it was enough and
told that it was it and turned his cup indicating he was done drinking. Charity
is another traditional practice that is shown in this film. When Mali and Moshe
get 1000 shekel from a donor they immediately give maaser (a tenth of their
money) to charity. They could have easily kept it justifying that they are also
poor yet instead they understood that giving maaser was greater. We know that
Moshe and Mali were very poor yet they try their best to prepare everything for
the holiday buying a sukkah, four species, wine, food and all of the necessities
for the holiday. This shows that they also keep the sabbath and holidays.
705. The people in ushpizin are not faced with opened miracles from God
instead the people and the challenges they encounter they interpret as a divine
presence and the communication of God in this world. The guests they had had
proven to be a challenge and by overcoming that challenge they would merit
reward. Moreover the guidance of the Rabbi suggested Moshe not to get angry
and hen the etrog was used as a lemon he controlled himself turning to God
immediately realizing that it was him who had given him a test.
706. Moshe and Mali demonstrate that by following the lifestyle that God
wants them to follow he provides all of the materialistic things for them. When
praying to god they were able to see miracles when inviting guests to their
house even if they weren't the best people to have around and we believe that
because they were able to overcome that challenge they were then granted with
a son.
707. In my opinion Moshe realized that his old life wasn't very meaningful.
We know that from his past he murdered someone and that must've been a very
traumatic experience leading him to repent for his action and find something
that was more meaningful and that allowed him to repent for all of his past
actions.
708. Overall I think the lifestyle of orthodox is presented in both a positive
and negative way. We see that these people are all poor trying to make ends
meet and they really devote their whole life to torah and mitzvot yet somehow
they don't have to go to work they just study all day and pray and somehow
they get what they need and are able to survive. Even Though they don't have
a lavish lifestyle they are joyous and they stand united and that is something
money can't buy.
709. The Ushpizin film, the main characters frequently refer to biblical figures
as their role models. Moshe and Mali often refer to Avraham and Sara as being
their role models. They particularly look up to Avraham and Sara since they feel
like on a few occasions their lives are very similar being able to relate to them.
Sara and Mali were both barons and that they both had guests. Moshe had
another model yet this one is not a biblical figure. Rabbi Nachman of Breslev
played a big influence in Moshe’s life. We see this when they say that they
would name their child Nachman and also the fact that when Moshe did teshuva
he joined the Breslev movement showing that Rabbi Nachman inspired him the
most.
710. In this film we see the traditional practices such as faith and belief in
god, receiving guests, prayer, repentance; these are actions shown throughout the
film. We see that there is alot of prayer going on whether it's formal or informal.
There are times when Moshe goes to synagogue and prays with everyone, other
times when he does the blessing on wine, food and so on, however there are
times when Moshe just talks to God asking him for miracles or just to help him
with his difficulties. Moreover, we see teshuvah repentance throughout the movie
towards another individual and towards god. We see that when Moshe took the
succah of another jew unintentionally he asked him for forgiveness. Towards God
he asks for forgiveness for sending his guests away. Emunah is a big factor in
the lives of Moshe and Mali. They were constantly believing in God's presence
and his help. They had no doubt that if they asked God for his help he would
send it and through this they received everything they needed. They were certain
that the more they prayed the more life would look up to them. Throughout the
film we see Moshe’s self control. When his unruly guests challenge him, he
refrains from losing his temper, despite the immense pressure. For example when
they used his etrog that had cost him 1000 shekel as a lemon he was very angry
