G-d Was Seeking Reaasurance to Create the World. Who Gave It To Him? Why Does G-d Share Secrets with Avraham? - Weekly Women's Class: This class was presented on Tuesday, 11 Cheshvan, 5784, November 12, 2024, Parshas Vayera, at Bais Medrash Ohr Chaim in Monsey, NY. It is one of the most mysterious and potent verses in the Tanach. G-d speaks to Himself and challenges His desire to cover things up: “Now G-d had said, ‘Shall I hide (ham’chaseh ani) from Abraham what I am about to do?” Why does G-d feel compelled to reveal His plan with Abraham? And why is God thinking of covering it up to begin with? And why does G-d’s choice to reveal His thoughts feel like a rejection of His desire to remain closed? The class explores the view of the Chasam Sofer, urging us to live a life of giving and inspiring even at the expense of our “prophetic potential.” Then we explore the deeper interpretation of how deep the Divine soul, embodied by Abraham, is rooted in the core of G-d preceding and encouraging all creation.

The Mouthpiece: Rabbi YY Reveals Life-Changing Advice He Received From Rabbi Adin Even Yisroel - Weekly Women's Class: This class was presented on Tuesday, 18 Cheshvan, 5784, November 19, 2024, Parshas Chayei Sara, at Bais Medrash Ohr Chaim in Monsey, NY. What happens when we function perfectly on the outside, do everything 'properly,' but inside something is frozen, disconnected, like on an automaton? It has already become a way of life, and we are used to it, but the soul knows something more is available. This class explores one of the deepest pains of our generation: disconnect. A surprising discovery by the Gaon of Vilna sheds light on the difference between a functional life and a real life. Through the seven times that the burial of the dead is mentioned in the parsha, we will discover how it is possible to free the heart from the prison built around it, and return to feeling - without fear, shame, and defenses.View Source Sheets: https://portal.theyeshiva.net/api/source-sheets/9484

The Fat Cows and the Skinny Cows: Why Was Pharaoh Blown Away by Joseph? - Weekly Women's Class: This class was presented on Tuesday, 23 Kislev, 5785, December 24, 2024, Parshas Miketz, at Bais Medrash Ohr Chaim in Monsey, NY. Pharaoh, the king of Egypt, has two dreams. In the first, Pharaoh sees himself standing over the Nile River, and then, seven fat cows emerge from the river, followed by seven thin cows. The thin cows proceed to swallow the fat ones and yet remain just as thin as before. In his second dream, Pharaoh sees seven thin, shriveled ears of grain swallow seven fat ears of grain. None of the wise men of Egypt can offer Pharaoh a satisfactory interpretation of his dreams. Finally, Joseph is summoned from his dungeon; he interprets the dreams to mean that seven years of plenty, symbolized by the fat cows and fat grain, will be followed by seven years of hunger, reflected by the lean cows and the shriveled ears. The seven years of famine will be so powerful that they will "swallow up" and obliterate any trace of the years of plenty. Joseph then advises Pharaoh to prepare for the looming crisis by stockpiling food during the years of plenty and then rationing it out during the famine.Pharaoh is blown away by Joseph's vision. "Can there be another person who has G-d's spirit in him as this man does?" he asks his advisors.He appoints Joseph viceroy of Egypt, and the rest is history. A number of blatant questions instantly emerge in this story: 1) Why did Joseph proceed to give Pharaoh unsolicited advice on how to deal with the impending famine? Pharaoh summoned Joseph, a slave, from the dungeon to interpret his dreams, not to become the advisor to the king!? 2) Pharaoh was amazed by Joseph's interpretation of the dreams, which none of his own wise men could conceive. But Joseph's interpretation seems simple and obvious: When are cows fat? When there is lots of food. When are they lean? When there's no food. Why could no one else conceive of the same interpretation? And why was Pharaoh so impressed? 3) Pharaoh was also thunderstruck by Joseph's solution to the problem of the famine. But one need not be a rocket scientist to suggest that if you have seven years of plenty followed by seven years of famine, you should store food during the time of plenty for the time of hunger. What's the genius in Joseph's advice? This class will explain and highlight Joseph’s true brilliance and demonstrate how it remains as relevant as ever to each of us struggling to survive our own private ‘years of famine.’ We all experience in our own lives cycles of plenty and cycles of famine. There are times when things are going very well: We are healthy, successful, and comfortable. And there are times of recession and challenges when curveballs come our way. Joseph taught us how to prepare in our years of plenty for our years of famine.

There Was No One in the World to Hold Your Hand and Tell You that You Are Not Guilty. How Do You Recover from This? Yosef’s Secret - Weekly Women's Class: This class was presented on Tuesday, 7 Teves, 5785, January 7, 2025, Parshas Vayechi, at Bais Medrash Ohr Chaim in Monsey, NY. We all carry pain in our hearts. Sometimes it's an old wound that won't let go, sometimes a betrayal that's hard to forget, and sometimes a deep feeling of loneliness that no one understands. This class reveals the deep secret of Yosef—the person who went through the greatest darkness and turned it into light. How did a boy who lost his mother at the age of 8, was thrown into a pit full of snakes by his brothers, sold into slavery, accused of a false conspiracy, and spent 12 years in prison – how did he manage not only to survive but to love with so much joyful presence, happiness, and serenity? How did he remain sensitive and open rather than become cynical and stone-like? If you are dealing with: • Deep mental pain • Traumas from the past • Emotional crises • Loneliness and disconnection • An injury that is hard to forget • A feeling of helplessness This class will show you how to get out of the darkness andinto the light, reconnect with the joy of life, and discover the divine power that lies within us.View Source Sheets: https://portal.theyeshiva.net/api/source-sheets/9550

Moshe’s Mission: Humility Is Never About Self-Bashing; It Is Seeing Yourself as a Channel for Infinity - Weekly Women's Class: This class was presented on Tuesday, 21 Teves, 5785, January 21, 2025, Parshas Vaera, at Bais Medrash Ohr Chaim in Monsey, NY. Why did Amram marry his aunt, a relationship that would be later forbidden? Moshe, who gave the Torah, was born from this flawed union? Why did Moshe, the humblest of men, say to G-d he is ready to be priest and king? Why was Saul rebuked for arrogance when he actually refused to be king and rejected the power? Why did Moshe tell Hashem, "Who am I?" Did he think G-d did not know him well? The class delves into the mechanism to liberate ourselves from being captive to the inner voices of fear, anxiety, insecurity, and the need for validation—by energetically discovering how we are channels for infinity. We discuss what makes a good therapist, rabbi, teacher, leader, and mentor. When therapists or rabbis are not worked out emotionally, they can wreak havoc. Great teachers, healers, and leaders are mirrors, reflecting back to you who you really are. When these mirrors are broken, you start believing you are broken, and you become dependent rather than confident and self-reliant.

How Vashti Triggered Her Husband’s Core-Wound; How Esther Used It to Save a World - Weekly Women's Class: This class was presented on Tuesday, 4 Adar, 5785, March 4, 2025, Parshas Tetzaveh, at Bais Medrash Ohr Chaim in Monsey, NY. The lecture explores the first chapter of the Book of Esther. Why did Vashti trigger such anger in the Persian King? Why does the order of her title keep changing, as well as the musical notes relating to her? We also learn to observe the genius of Queen Esther, who brilliantly played Haman's ego against Achashverosh's paranoia. The lesson we learn about the courage of Esther and the power to look inward at our deepest triggers and core-wounds, and how when darkness is exposed it loses its power.View Source Sheets: https://portal.theyeshiva.net/api/source-sheets/9608

For the Cosmic Conductor, Every Note Is Indispensable: Reconnecting to Your Own Life-Force - Weekly Women's Class: This class was presented on Tuesday, 25 Adar, 5785, March 25, 2025, Parshas Pekudei, at Bais Medrash Ohr Chaim in Monsey, NY. Why did Moshe feel compelled to account for every coin he received? Did people think Moses packed away some of the cash to buy real estate in Saudi Arabia or purchase his private jet? Even if it is important to know that Moses gave an accounting to teach us transparency, the Torah could have simply said that Moses gave an accounting of all the gold, silver, and copper contributed to the Sanctuary project. The theme of the entire second book of the Torah, Shemos, is dedicated to nation-building. In Genesis, we are referred to as “benei Yisroel,” the children of Israel; we are a family, and a fragmented one as such. It is only in Exodus, when we are first called an “Am,” a nation. This is the pervading thread of the entire book of Shemos. While the narratives of Genesis focus on individuals—Adam, Eve, the snake, Cain, Noah, Abraham, Sarah, Lot, Hagar, Ishmael, Isaac, Rebecca, Esau, Jacob, Rachel, Leah, Judah, Joseph etc.—Exodus is a book about a people, a nation. Individuals are mentioned, of course, but all these names are discussed as representatives of a nation or assisting the formation of a nation. Shemos is about the collective, not the individual. Here comes a profound challenge. Does nation-building, by definition, come at the expense of the individual? Sure, you can’t have a nation without individuals joining together, but perhaps the value of the individual is only insofar as he or she becomes a part of the whole. The value of my “I” is only because it contributes to the “We.” The class explored the profound need for each of us to be seen, and to be able to truly see others, especially our children and students, see them in their full power and presence.View Source Sheets: https://portal.theyeshiva.net/api/source-sheets/9635

The discourse explains why the holiday of Rosh Chodesh was given primarily to women. We explore the reason the Jews created the Golden Calf, and the unique gifts of the feminine—its ability to embody the oneness of G-d in a visceral way, rather than in a sublime, aloof way.

Stories of Abuse & Triumph: The Girl Was Being Violated; They said She Was Seeking Negative Attention This Lag Baomer class was presented on Tuesday, 15 Iyar, 5785, May 13, 2025, Parshas Emor, at The Barn @ 84 Viola Rd. in Montebello, NY. There is no other sage in the history of Judaism who has all of the Jewish people celebrating on the day that he passed away. Why is the yarzeit of Reb Shimon ben Yochai marked in such a unique and universal way? How did Reb Shimon bar Yochai end up in a cave? It seems like a classic Jewish story and conversation. One Jew, Reb Yosei, remains quiet about Rome. Reb Yehuda praises the Romans for elevating the standards of life; and Reb Shimon is critical because he said it was for narcissistic purposes. But is there a deeper theme behind this debate? The fact that the Talmud records the details of the debate, and gives us the names of the debaters, instead of just saying that Reb Shimon criticized the government, indicates there is some depth and gravitas to this debate, and that the names are important. As it turns out, the debate on Rome fascinatingly reflects a debate between Reb Yehuda and Reb Shimon in many aspects of Jewish law. The Talmud states: Chezekiah stated in the name of Rabbi Jeremiah, who said it in the name of Rabbi Shimon bar Yochai, "I am able to exempt the whole world from judgment from the day that I was born until now!” (Sukkah 45b). What is that supposed to mean? The Midrash states in Avod Derabi Nasan ch. 16: Rabbi Shimon ben Yochai would say: From this you know that Israel will never see the face of purgatory. But how can a sage say such a thing? View Source Sheets: https://portal.theyeshiva.net/api/source-sheets/9685

Connection with G-d Does Not Mean I’m Not Triggered; It Means I Know Who I Am and Assume Ownership of the Direction of My Life This class was presented on Tuesday, 22 Iyar, 5785, May 20, 2025, Parshas Behar-Bechukosai, at The Barn @ 84 Viola Rd. in Montebello, NY. The class explores three forms of acquisitions in Jewish law, reflecting three paths in our service of G-d. Selling the tree, selling the future fruits of the tree, and selling a tree for its fruits. Generally it is assumed that there are two moral paths through life. There is the sure, tranquil path of the perfectly righteous person who has succeeded in remaking his very character and personality—a path that few can aspire to and even fewer achieve. And there is the path of the imperfect soul whose life is an endless battle—a battle in which defeat is always a possibility and, in the long run, a statistical inevitability. A path which runs along the edge of a moral precipice, in which the slightest misstep or lapse in vigilance sends one hurtling into the abyss. Is there no other way? Is there no middle ground between utter perfection and perpetual self-doubt? Is there no way to gain control over one’s life short of remaking one’s inner self? Such was the moral landscape of man until Rabbi Schneur Zalman of Liadi wrote the Tanya and introduced us to the "banuni," “the intermediate man.” View Source Sheets: https://portal.theyeshiva.net/api/source-sheets/9691

In this episode we discuss: —What is Hasidic thought, and what differentiates it from Kabbalah? —How did Jewish emancipation and integration lead to Jews turning inward and focusing on the soul and God’s Presence in the world? —What was the Rebbe’s understanding of messianism and Zionism, and what might it mean for how we live our lives? Tune in to hear a conversation about how the Rebbe brought oneness to the Jewish People during some of our most turbulent times.

Why Did the Rambam Not Feel It Was Arrogant to Write that His Was the Only Book Necessary to Master Jewish Law? On Sunday, 2 Adar, 5785, March 2, 2025, the 44th international Siyum HaRambam took place in Brooklyn, NY, where thousands gathered to celebrate the completion of the study of Mishnah Torah by the Rambam, according to the daily learning cycle of Rambam instituted by the Lubavitcher Rebbe in 1984. Rabbi YY Jacobson presented the keynote lecture at the Siyum, highlighting the contribution of the Rambam to Judaism and its relevance today. The lecture recalls memories of the Rebbe making a Siyum and Hadran on the Rambam back in 1986; it explains the remarkable revolution of the Rambam in Jewish law; and how the Rambam teaches us not to be embarrassed by who we are.

Can You Communicate Without Defensiveness? The Incredible Lesson of Shimon Hamsoni and Rabbe Akiva This class was presented on Tuesday, 11 Av, 5785, August 5, 2025, Parshas Vaeschanan, at The Barn in Montebello, NY. There is a story in the Talmud, in which Shimon the Imsonite retracts his entire theory that the term "Es" indicates the inclusion of another person or item, due to a single verse in this week’s portion, “You shall fear -- Es -- the Lord your G-d.” How can we be in awe of anybody but G-d? Yet his student, Rabbi Akiva, rescues his teacher’s refuted theory. The obvious question is what did Rabbi Akiva discover which Shimon did not? Shimon could not entertain the notion of including anything in the commandment to fear G-d. For him, such a proposition would be blasphemy. Why did Rabbi Akiva, then, not have a problem of adding Torah scholars to the mitzvah of fearing G-d? How is it that for what Shimon was blasphemy was for Rabbi Akiva perfectly acceptable, and even a mitzvah?! You were selected to win the Nobel Prize for your contribution to physics. You received your tickets to Norway to attend the lavish ceremony. You were featured on the cover of Time magazine, and have been interviewed by hundreds of journals and networks. Minutes after you received the call that the Nobel Committee had chosen you from 40 possible candidates, you went from being an anonymous physicist spending the last 45 years in a laboratory to becoming a world-class scientist whose name will be immortalized in the annals of scientific innovation and discovery. You become a household name. The world is buzzing with your praise. And then… the unthinkable happens. Hours before you go to the airport to fly to Norway, you discover a subtle mistake in one of your 20,000 equations. It is a mistake that no eye has perceived and perhaps will not be perceived for many years. But it is a mistake. Your calculation is erroneous. You have refuted your discovery. You now have a choice to make. Will you allow the “small truth” to destroy your eternal glory? What would you do? It is such a story that the Talmud is addressing. If only we can internalize this type of integrity our lives can be transformed. View Source Sheets: http://portal.theyeshiva.net/api/source-sheets/9744

Keynote Lecture Kesher Nafshi: Rabbi YY Jacobson presented this keynote lecture at the Kesher Nafshi Shabbaton which was at the Raleigh hotel, in South Falsburg, NY, Friday27 Sivan, 5783,June 16, 2023. On June 9, 2023, four children were found in the Amazon jungle, after being stranded there for forty days following a plain crash. How did they survive the harrowing ordeal? Rabbi YY uses this story as a metaphor to explain how we need to help ourselves and our loved ones survive in our own jungles. We need parents who believe in us and will never give up the connection; we need to know what works and what is ineffective; we need to understand trauma and dissociation; and we must have support.
