The video segment profiles the Village of Peace in Israel, home to about 3,000 members of the African Hebrew Israelites of Jerusalem. The community bases its entire lifestyle on Genesis 1:29, interpreting the verse as a divine mandate for a vegan diet—only seed‑bearing plants and fruit‑bearing trees. Residents avoid meat, eggs, dairy, sugar (three days a week), alcohol, and tobacco, and they incorporate regular exercise, describing the regimen as "Live It"—a lifelong spiritual practice rather than a temporary diet. The segment cites a recent study indicating that villagers live longer than the average Israeli, highlighting individual ages in the low‑70s to early‑80s. The narrative concludes with a rhetorical invitation for viewers to consider building their own personal paradise through similar choices.

Chapters

There is a village that lives like Adam and Eve. Exactly. They don't eat meat or eggs or dairy. They only eat plants like Adam and Eve. Only vegan food. Why? Because the first chapter of the Bible, Genesis 1:29, says God gives Adam and Eve every seed-bearing plant and every fruit-bearing tree for food. To you it shall be for food. To them, this is proof that Adam and Eve are vegan. So they built a whole village around this one verse. It's called the Village of Peace in Israel, with 3,000 people called the African Hebrew Israelites of Jerusalem. They make all their food from just plants, even burgers and ice cream. And 3 days a week, they don't eat sugar. Zero sugar. But unlike Adam and Eve, they can eat apple. To them, this isn't veganism or a food trend. It's the original diet of Adam and Eve according to God. They don't call it diet. Diets fade. They call it Live It. It's for life. They also exercise. They don't smoke or drink alcohol because the human body is a temple and taking care of it is serving God.
We understand that in order to maintain a lengthy, healthy, optimal, vital lifestyle, we would only be able to put noble foods in our bodies, in these temples that we call.
And it's working. A recent study showed these people live longer than the average person in Israel.
How old am I? 73. 69. 72.
82 years young. Maybe they're right. Maybe they're wrong. It doesn't matter. They live in their own paradise. So ask yourself a question. Are you waiting for paradise Or can you build your own paradise today?
