Haredim are generally known as being insular, cloistered and anti-modern. While Pfeuffer admitted that those labels are “pretty accurate stereotypes,” she said that is due to the fact that “the ultra-Orthodox are trying to build a world to preserve customs, culture and religion.”

Jewish men will spend the rest of their lives, praying, studying, teaching or discussing the Torah and Jewish law. Hanina is young and studying at a higher level now to become a rabbi. There is a whole episode on Giti trying to get her son, Yosale into the right rabbinical school.
Shulem runs a school for younger Jewish boys which Akiva also teaches in. They have already become rabbis. Zvi Ayre, the brother, is also a rabbi. He is attending a school/meeting for older rabbis/scholars. They survive financially because they receive funds from the state to pursue their studies snd are exempted from military service because of their scholarship ( and many are not Zionists like the Shtisel family).
The orthodox community in America operates similarly. They rely on public assistance snd the wives are the primary breadwinners.
Isn't the scholarship enough to support the while family? How much of it takes to support a man:
You see in Shtosel men in many different jobs:
butcher that Lippe worked for
grocery store owners like you see Sholem buying monosodium![]()
restaurant owner of that place where Akiva and his friends hang out
book stores.. lots of them with holy books like rhe one that Konigsberg owned
tailor where Shulem bought his Brandolino hat
lotto shop owner
matchmaker side job of Kennigsberg
Apartment owner who rented Ruchami plaxe
Shulem owns some rental property
Travel company that Shulem brother opened
Art store with religious art owned by the guy who was signing in his name..
Many teachers
Many teligious authorities
Cemetery Manager
Wedding planners
Wedding venue owners
Thora scribes
Jewelry stores
And more... The community sire has many different jobs to fill. Lots of interprenuers as well..
I am not sure how woman with 4,,, 5... 7...8// or more kids can be a bread winner while raising kids,,, how is it physically possible, What jobs are avaiilable to them.?

My guesses are:
- That scene with his brother jumping attempt was a pretext to close off the balcony so they were not shooting the usual sitting scenes on the balcony... maybe.
- There was seemingly way less group scenes then in previous episodes.
- Also I think there was way less street shoots maybe to avoid people in masks?
- I think that whole episode with the providing extras for the movie crew, filmed on the movie set was probably one way to contain the production at the same location as much as possible.
- I saw few instances when actors looked tired and or had red eyes and I could not help but thinking that maybe the were after covid and still tired?
- More indoor scenes overall.
- The cemetery scenes were few people only.
I may be entirely wrong of course.

It clearly shows that the show has some bumps on the road comes to the third season.
They clearly had some problem with the actors contracts, then it was not even confirmed till April 2020..
so after Covid started world wide, Israel had been hit pretty hard too. The production started in May 2020! and was postponed due to covid YET resumed in June and ended in September. So they did all those eight episodes between Jun and September. DURING covid. So that must have not been easy on the crew!
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shtisel
In May 2019, Shtisel was renewed for a third season.[15] In May 2019, a dispute with the Israeli Actors’ Association delayed the signing of contracts for the third series.[16] In August 2019, producer Dikla Barkai said, “We cannot confirm Season 3 yet. There are many reasons. Let’s hope. We are thinking positively. I would say it will.”[4]
In April 2020, series producer Barkai confirmed that a third season of Shtisel had been due to begin filming in May 2020, but would have to be postponed on account of the coronavirus pandemic.[5] Production resumed in June and a trailer was later released in September.[7]
On December 17, 2020, an online world premier event for Season 3, Episode 1 was hosted by the Temple Emanu-El Streicker Center.[17] Season 3 will stream on Netflix starting March 25, 2021.[18
