  • Breaking Free from Tradition (Parsha In-focus: Chukas)
    Jul 16 2024

    Have you ever wondered how something as enigmatic as the red heifer can teach us about constant spiritual growth? Our latest episode of the Parsha Review Podcast challenges conventional wisdom by exploring the paradoxical commandment of the red heifer (Parah Adumah). Discover how the ritual's ability to purify the impure and vice versa underscores a profound teaching about the necessity of unceasing spiritual advancement. We share a compelling narrative about a diligent student's realization that complacency in spirituality is perilous, urging us all to strive for deeper understanding and engagement in our religious practices. The lesson? Stagnation, in any aspect of life, can be detrimental.

    But that's not all – we also dive into the transformative power of embracing change. Inspired by the slogan from the Mir Yeshiva, "Don't be better, change," we discuss breaking free from stagnant habits and traditions that hold us back. This episode encourages listeners to question their actions and beliefs, pushing for true transformation and continual evolution. Reflecting on the lessons from the red heifer, we advocate for a mindset of growth and adaptability. Join us and be inspired to seek deeper understanding and continuous self-improvement in your spiritual journey.

  • The First Influencer (Parsha In-focus: Korach)
    Jul 12 2024

    Can the company you keep determine your destiny? On this week's Parsha Review Podcast, we delve into the dramatic story of Korach, whose unchecked jealousy and rebellion against Moshe and Aaron led to a catastrophic end. We explore how Korach's negative influence ensnared those around him, while those aligned with Moshe and Aaron thrived in righteousness. Through the lens of this powerful Torah portion, we analyze the role of words and environment in shaping behavior, drawing poignant parallels to the impact of modern-day influencers.

    In the second part of our episode, we underscore the critical importance of choosing positive influences in our lives. Whether through distancing from those who spread slander and mockery or by seeking divine guidance in our prayers, we aim to cultivate a nurturing and virtuous environment. Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe joins us to share his invaluable insights on fostering positivity and integrity. Listen in for a compelling discussion that not only dissects the lessons from Korach but also offers practical advice on building a life anchored in righteousness. Have a wonderful Shabbos!

  • Nurturing a Deeper Connection with the Almighty (Parsha In-Focus: Shelach)
    Jun 28 2024
    What happens when personal experiences shape our perceptions of divine guidance? Join us as we explore the profound lessons from Parsha Shelach and Miriam's story, reflecting on the gravity of the spies' negative report upon surveying the land of Israel. Drawing from a personal anecdote of attending a Hamas rally in disguise, we discuss how affiliations influence our understanding of events and underscore Hashem's role as the ultimate arbiter in the Jewish claim to the land. This episode sheds light on the harsh consequences of negative speech and the divine mission imposed on the Jewish people, amidst the often cruel actions of nations.Ever wonder if the mundane moments in your life are actually signs of divine communication? We share personal stories, like hitting green lights while driving, as examples of Hashem's constant guidance and love. Through the experiences of biblical figures such as Aaron, we emphasize the importance of recognizing these signs and maintaining regular, heartfelt communication with God. The discussion highlights that building a close, personal relationship with the Almighty is akin to nurturing a bond with a loved one, fostering a deeper spiritual connection beyond traditional prayers.Discover the joy and love in performing mitzvahs, using anecdotes to illustrate the significance of seeing divine intervention in everyday life. We discuss the spiritual implications of the prayer associated with putting on tzitzit and how it fosters a profound relationship with Hashem. Furthermore, we explore the concept of time-bound mitzvot and their specific relevance to women, emphasizing their inherent spiritual connection with the Almighty that transcends physical commandments. Concluding with a heartfelt wish for a peaceful Shabbos and a healthy summer, this episode is rich with insights and reflections aimed at deepening your spiritual journey._____________This episode (Ep 6.37) of the Parsha Review Podcast by Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe on Parshas Be'haaloscha is dedicated in Honor of Dovi Wolbe on his Shabbos Aufruf & in honor of our Holy Soldiers in the Battlefield and our Torah Scholars in the Study Halls who are fighting for the safety of our nation!Download & Print the Parsha Review Notes:https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1ncaRyoH5iJmGGoMZs9y82Hz2ofViVouv?usp=sharingRecorded in the TORCH Centre - Levin Family Studios (B) to a live audience on June 25, 2024, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on June 28, 2024_____________DONATE to TORCH: Please consider supporting the podcasts by making a donation to help fund our Jewish outreach and educational efforts at https://www.torchweb.org/support.php.
