Paradise & Co. launches YouTube series on Judaism

Paradise & Co. on July 22 announced a new YouTube Shorts series called Judaism, created by Barbara Permilla Roth and shaped in part by Texas Senate Bill 10. The first 11-part series is live now, with a second 11-part series on the Ten Commandments already in development.

Why it matters: - Paradise & Co. is using a short-form video format to introduce Judaism to a broad online audience. - The series arrives as Texas debates how Jewish and other religious texts are presented in public-school classrooms. - The project aims to fill a perceived gap between posted religious text and qualified spiritual instruction.

What happened: - Paradise & Co. announced a YouTube series titled "Judaism" on July 22. - The series was created by Barbara Permilla Roth. - The launch was influenced by Texas Senate Bill 10. - Paradise & Co. said the series reveals the spiritual internality of the Jewish scriptures. - The company also launched the series as YouTube Shorts. - Each clip includes a clickable description. - The company’s YouTube channel is available here.

The details: - The first series has 11 parts and serves as an overview of Judaism. - The episode titles are God, Hebrew Bible, Ten Commandments, Messiah, Prayer, Holy, Soul, Heaven & Hell, Antisemitism, Zionism and Love & Peace. - A second 11-part series is in development and will focus specifically on the Ten Commandments. - Roth said Texas Senate Bill 10 requires a poster of the Ten Commandments in every Texas public primary and secondary school classroom. - Roth said the installations could number nearly 90,000. - Roth said the posters provide no qualified Hebrew spiritual teaching. - Roth is a Radio-TV-Film graduate from the School of Communications at The University of Texas at Austin. - Roth won the Silver award in Children’s Programming at the WorldFest–Houston Film Festival for the documentary "Acorn Entrepreneurs – Visions of Young Enterprises." - Roth has studied the Torah’s internality for more than 25 years. - Roth is the author of "Illumination—a journey toward spiritual sovereignty."

Between the lines: - The series appears designed both as religious education and as a response to public-policy changes in Texas. - The YouTube Shorts format suggests Paradise & Co. is targeting quick, accessible lessons rather than long-form instruction. - The focus on subjects like Antisemitism and Zionism broadens the project beyond scripture into contemporary Jewish identity and public debate.

What's next: - Paradise & Co. plans to continue the project with a second 11-part series centered on the Ten Commandments. - The company is publishing the content on YouTube, where the clips can reach viewers outside formal classrooms. - More information is available on Paradise & Co.’s social media channel here.
