The Maccabeats have released their latest video and, as usual, it is the sweetest thing ever.

This time the tribe’s own a cappella group takes on “D’ror Yikra,” singing it to the tune of “Cups” by Anna Kendrick. The rendition is performed around the Shabbat table, at which the kippah-clad boys appear to be playing the nice Orthodox Jewish boy version of a drinking game.

Tune in and hum along — you won’t be able to help it. (And if your screening is preceded by a Red Lobster ad like ours was, you won’t be able to help laughing a little bit, too.)
