    Kedoshim
    May 8 2024
    In this week's parsha, Parshat Kedoshim, we get holy. With 51(!) mitzvot - about family, salaries, sex, blindness, gossip, neighborly love, you name it - Sivan explains how the parsha is really about...everything. It's about your life. The lives of those around you. About loving others, and also ourselves. It's about elevating our worlds by becoming just a little bit holier. Wondering how? Tune in! Sivan Rahav-Meir is a leading Israeli journalist, media personality and Torah scholar. You can sign up for her The Daily Thought WhatsApp group, where Sivan sends small insights about Judaism and current affairs. Check out Liel’s new book, How the Talmud Can Change Your Life: Surprisingly Modern Advice from a Very Old Book, available directly from the publisher, or wherever you purchase books.

    Metzora
    Apr 17 2024
    On this week's episode, Sivan tells us a bit about Parshat Metzora, and a lot about Passover. The word Seder, as Sivan explains, means order. And in a chaotic world, a little Monday night Seder is what Jews around the world need right now. But what about the unaffiliated Jews, still in exile, not invited to a Seder? And what's the difference between discussing and eating Passover values? Listen to Sivan to find out. Sivan Rahav-Meir is a leading Israeli journalist, media personality and Torah scholar.
