Huh? What would make you think that he’s not? He looks Jewish and has a very Jewish name .

Why would you think he's not Jewish? He's probably related to Mendy Pellin.

Considering that Mendy Pellin is listed as one of the directors...

What I was wondering if the boys from the choir were all born with the help of Bonei Olam, but I guess not ... just that they have them singing surrounded by those pictures of babies (who presumably were, born with the help etc...)

Neither the actors, boys or babies are necessarily beneficiaries of Bonei Olam.

I think they're trying to depict that all 'types' of jews benefit from Bonei olam. There are many differences between the two couples...

Nice video! Looks Jewish to me. My husband looks very similar. Wears a sweater over his white shirt on Shabbos, similar hairstyle. You are being sidetracked by stylistic things like clothes and hair.

I really don't like these videos. I also don't like the lyrics or the singing. I don't understand why they can't up the quality. However, it is a nice organization.

I thought he was single. Does he have a wife in the video? I just saw him sitting alone with one candle. It was so sad I was bawling.

Please realize, Jews have many different "looks" and "types" and also different names. Some of us are geirim and do not have what you would consider a "Jewish look". Some of us are baalei teshuvah and for one reason or another decided to continue to use our english names.

Please accept this invitation to broaden your mind and view as to what a Jew looks like. We are a beautiful and stunning tapestry of Hashem's chosen people.

Watch Devorah schwartz and Brach's Jaffe singing it...just can't compare, not to mention strange to hear a man sing "will I ever be a mother etc...", No you will never be a mother because you are male Smile

I think the woman with the white siddur is supposed to be his wife.
