1:10:19
The great medieval sage my Maimonides – Rambam – has been guiding us throughout our studies of the 13th principles of faith. This transcendental scholar, who’s magisterial writings are authoritatively accepted amongst the entirety of the Jewish people, was one of our people’s greatest personalities. His writings are enormously influential and authoritative in matters of […]

Have you ever considered that the true value of a gift lies not in its size but in the sincerity with which it's given? Join us as we traverse the terrain of heartfelt generosity, inspired by the Parsha of Terumah. We unravel the Torah's teachings on the contributions to the Tabernacle, discovering how giving enriches the giver immeasurably. In this episode, we reflect on the enigmatic notion that to give is to 'take,' and how this paradox sheds light on the intrinsic worth and intention behind our offerings. The tale of the Nesiim (The Tribe Leaders) pierces through the narrative, reminding us that the grandeur of a donation fades when the heart isn't fully in it. Let's explore together why Judaism views the act of giving as a deeply personal journey of purpose and kindness rather than a mere obligation. The story of a humble villager's weekly challahs left in the synagogue's ark weaves the thread for our next discussion, revealing the unforeseen consequences of his pure intentions and the profound divine lesson that ensues. We'll discuss the stirring impact of authentic actions and the reverberations our heartfelt prayers have in the heavens. As we contemplate the practice of taking challah in our modern world devoid of a Temple in Jerusalem, we honor the continued commitment to Hashem and learn humility through recognizing His role in our fortunes. Moreover, we discuss the powerful echoes of prophetic judgments, emphasizing the timeless message of divine justice and the spirit of dedication that bridges our past to our present. Prepare to be inspired by the vitality of your own intentions and the boundless depths of our collective spiritual journey. This episode (Ep 6.18) of the Parsha Review Podcast by Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe on Parshas Terumah is dedicated in Honor of our dear friend Bobbi Asarch & 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=sharing Recorded in the TORCH Centre - Studio B to a live audience on February 13, 2024, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on February 14, 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.

Join us on this enlightening journey through the timeless wisdom of Mesilat Yesharim by the Ramchal, where we uncover the profound purpose behind our existence. Listen in as we discuss the delicate balance between enjoying the world and preserving its beauty, as taught by the example of Adam in the Garden of Eden. Every pleasure, we learn, has its permissible counterpart, reminding us to indulge responsibly, without harming the world around us. This conversation takes a turn towards the eternal, emphasizing that our time here is but a preparation for the World to Come. Like athletes in a football season, we too are playing a series of games that lead us toward a much grander championship – the ultimate reward in the afterlife. In this episode, we contemplate the nature of true pleasure, comparing the fleeting joys of the material world with the profound bliss of spiritual accomplishments. Our actions in this life, like visiting the sick and embracing mitzvahs, are not just acts of kindness but investments in our eternal well-being. We share personal routines and stories that highlight the importance of selfless deeds and how they accumulate to promise us a place in the 'grand ballroom' of the afterlife. It's a powerful reminder of how every mitzvah carries with it a reward far greater than any earthly delight. Wrapping up our session, we reflect on the quest for purpose and perfection in life, drawing insights from the wisdom of the Mishnah. We explore how every challenge is a message steering us towards a life of spiritual fulfillment and alignment with the will of Hashem. The focus shifts to the ongoing work of refining our character, akin to enhancing a diamond's brilliance. We are guided through the concept of Mussar, which helps us polish our virtues and confront our flaws. Our discussion leaves us with a sense of gratitude for life's privileges and responsibilities, urging us to make the most of our unique journey towards spiritual growth. This weekly series is led by Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe, a journey through personal growth and character development guided by the teachings of Ramchal (Rabbi Moshe Chaim Luzzato) in the Mussar Masterpiece, Mesillas Yesharim (Ways of the Upright).In this series we follow the ArtScroll Mesorah: The Jaffa Family Edition of the Mesillas Yesharim - Way of the Upright.Available for purchase at: https://www.artscroll.com/Books/9781422614167.html Recorded in the TORCH Centre - Studio A to a live audience on January 21, 2019, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on February 14, 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.

The Tabernacle was a portable Temple in which the presence of God dwelled. Our Parsha begins with the fundraising effort to be conducted in the Wilderness where the nation was asked to donate the required materials for the construction of the Tabernacle, it’s vessels, and the vestments of the high priest.

Ep 47 - Hey, Do You Want to Convert to Judaism?! (Avodah Zara 3b)

Embark on a profound exploration of the Talmud's wisdom with us as we uncover the complexities of the Messianic era, the sincerity of conversion, and the role of nations in their historical treatment of Jewish people. Grasping the depth of these topics, we'll navigate the nuanced stance of Judaism on accepting new members into the fold. Reflect on the past during the reigns of King David and King Solomon, when conversions were scrutinized for authenticity, and discover Judaism's insistence on a direct, intermediary-free connection with the Divine. Together, we delve deep into the symbolism and importance of mitzvot like Tefillin, Tzitzis, and Mezuzah. These commandments are not mere rituals but pivotal connections to faith—Tzitzis, for instance, stands as a testament to our dedication and remembrance of God's commandments. Hear touching narratives, such as that of the Israeli soldiers who donned the sacred fringes as spiritual armor in battle, and ponder the resilience of Jewish pride in times of trial. We'll also contrast the joy in God's presence with the somber remembrance of the Holy Temple, seeking a balanced path through the spiritual journey. Concluding our enlightening discussion, we invite you to contemplate the indispensable role of Torah study in bringing clarity and purpose to life's undulating path. Engaging with the Torah is likened to navigating the darkness, with the promise of enlightenment as a guiding star. Thank you for joining us in this exploration of Jewish wisdom—may these insights fortify you as we approach a beautiful Shabbos with renewed perspective and understanding. The Thinking Talmudist Podcast shares select teachings of Talmud in a fresh, insightful and meaningful way. Many claim that they cannot learn Talmud because it is in ancient Aramaic or the concepts are too difficult. Well, no more excuses. In this podcast you will experience the refreshing and eye-opening teachings while gaining an amazing appreciation for the divine wisdom of the Torah and the depths of the Talmud. This episode of the Thinking Talmudist Podcast (Ep. 47) is dedicated in honor of Bruce & Rhona Caress!

As we venture further, we dissect the layers of the Torah, shedding light on the Ten Commandments and the powerful partnership they symbolize between mankind and God. The conversation extends to the Oral Law, where the intricacies of Jewish tradition come alive through the interpretations of the Mishnah and Talmud, revealing the meticulous care with which these teachings have been preserved and passed down. Delve into the wisdom of sages like Maimonides and Rabbi Yosef Karo, whose works continue to shape the daily practices of Jewish life, inviting each of us to seek a deeper understanding of the Torah's timeless teachings. Finally, the discussion culminates with a heartwarming story of a friend and lawyer who found himself entangled in questions of the Torah's authenticity. This personal narrative underscores the universal respect for the Torah and its singular, unaltered message that has echoed throughout millennia. Embrace the transformative power of Torah study, as it guides us in refining our character and strengthening our bond with God, ensuring that its wisdom remains as relevant and vibrant today as it was over 3,300 years ago at Mount Sinai.

Sunday Special: A Quest to Sustain Jewish Identity Among the Youth with Rabbi Tzvi Blachman
Sunday Special: A Quest to Sustain Jewish Identity Among the Youth with Rabbi Tzvi Blachman
Jan 28, 2024
58:31
Walking through the ancient streets of Jerusalem, one can't help but feel a connection to the past, a thread weaving through the fabric of time. On this podcast, we're joined by Rabbi Tzvi Blachman, who brings that sensation to life as he recounts his journey from a child of Holocaust survivors to a beacon of wisdom for Israeli and American students. Amidst the city's evolving skyline, Rabbi Blachman shares how the pursuit of material achievements must be balanced with a commitment to spiritual growth and the values that have sustained Jewish culture through the ages. His stories serve as powerful reminders that in a world racing towards tomorrow, our roots need to be firmly planted in tradition. There's a moment in everyone's life that defines their path, and for Rabbi Blachman, that moment came when teaching Torah became more than a passion—it became a calling. The Rabbi's narrative takes us to the heart of his decision to dedicate his life to the sacred texts, revealing the profound influence of his early experiences and role models on his love for Torah study. He discusses the challenges that many Jewish youths face, including the seductive pull of modern Western society and the resulting struggle to maintain a strong Jewish identity. The anecdotes he shares, like the transformative encounter with a religious boy dating outside the faith, underscore the urgency of his mission to guide the next generation towards a deep-seated pride in their heritage. Our conversation shifts from the personal to the universal as Rabbi Blachman reflects on the indelible impact of the Holocaust on collective Jewish memory and the spiritual resonance of traditions like the shul balconies. We traverse the heartbreaking notion of a "spiritual Holocaust" in our time, with countless Jews drifting away from their ancestral bonds. The Rabbi also invites us to reimagine the celebration of Shabbat, not merely as a weekly pause but as the pinnacle of our spiritual week. As Rabbi Blachman recounts unexpected Torah study sessions and the teachings of Rabbi Shimon Bar Yochai, he paints a picture of a culture where acts of kindness and devotion to study are not the exception, but the fabric of everyday life. Join us for this profound exploration of faith, identity, and the timeless lessons that guard the soul of a people. This Jewish Inspiration Podcast by Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe of TORCH (Ep. #271) is dedicated to our dearest friends, Rabbi Ari & Sami Winkler!!

Unlock the transformative power of prayer as we uncover the Talmudic secrets to a dedicated spiritual practice of prayer. This episode serves as a guide to harnessing full engagement in your prayers, shedding light on the Midrashic teachings that warn against a divided heart. We delve into the essence of Kavanah—intention—and how it breathes life into the rituals we perform, making the comparison between a body with a soul and a soulless ceremony. We learn why approaching prayer with joy and free from distractions not only aligns one with the Divine but also elevates the very act of prayer to a powerful mitzvah. Embark on a profound importance of praying for others. We share the moving story of a fallen soldier's ultimate sacrifice, and the incredible notion that by extending our prayers for others, we merit to also extend our own lives. The episode spotlights the impact of collective prayer, especially during times of shared sorrow, and the role empathy plays in our supplications. It's a reminder of our shared responsibilities and the strength that unity bestows upon us in the face of adversity. Finally, we tackle the complexities of the world through a Talmudic lens, discussing the anticipated response of nations at the time of the Messiah and what it means for us today. We propose a decisive strategy when facing cruel adversaries, informed by Talmudic wisdom on the perils of misplaced mercy. This episode calls for strength, action, and unwavering faith, as we turn to prayer as our beacon in these challenging times, seeking divine protection and strength for all. Join us for an episode that promises to not only enlighten but also inspire us to take bold and heartfelt action in our spiritual and worldly pursuits. This episode (Ep. #4) of the Prayer Podcast by Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe of TORCH is dedicated my dearest friends, Dr. Leonard & June Goldberg!

Unlock the mysteries of divine purpose in global affairs with Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe as we take a temporary detour from the discussion about Messiah to explore the intricate weave of current events and the tapestry of God's grand design. Amidst legal tribulations Israel faces, like the recent Hague case, we seek understanding beyond the surface level. Delve into the profound wisdom of Tractate Avodah Zara from the Talmud, where we unearth the cosmic roles of nations vis-à-vis the Torah. This exploration helps us discern the divine choreography at play, positioning historical and geopolitical developments as part of a grander narrative orchestrated by a higher power. Journey with us through the annals of history, scrutinizing the authenticity of nations' claims of camaraderie with Israel. We dissect the duplicity hidden beneath political gestures while celebrating the unique sanctuary that America has extended to Jewish life and faith. Contrast emerges between this benevolence and the ulterior motives of other states, reminding us of the spiritual ledger where all nations, including the Jewish people, are held to account. The Talmudic narrative shines a light on each nation's divine expectations, pushing us to question our own roles in the unfolding story of humanity. As we wrap this session, we tackle the enigma surrounding the Noahide laws and the acceptance of the Torah. Could coercion have led the Gentiles to embrace God's commandments as the Jews did? We grapple with this possibility and ponder the implications of the Gentiles' non-observance of these foundational laws. Concluding on a note of responsibility, we emphasize our collective mission to embody and proliferate the essence of the divine. Join us in this enlightening conversation and become a beacon of Torah wisdom, amplifying the divine presence for all to witness. The Thinking Talmudist Podcast shares select teachings of Talmud in a fresh, insightful and meaningful way. Many claim that they cannot learn Talmud because it is in ancient Aramaic or the concepts are too difficult. Well, no more excuses. In this podcast you will experience the refreshing and eye-opening teachings while gaining an amazing appreciation for the divine wisdom of the Torah and the depths of the Talmud. This episode of the Thinking Talmudist Podcast (Ep. 45) is dedicated in honor of our dear friends, David & Susan Marbin, the founders of this Talmud Class!

Building a Relationship between Emunah and Emes

In previous episodes, we've been charting a path through the stages of creation, starting from the initial desire of the Creator and then the Creation. The goal is to seek a deeper understanding of the significance of our current period of concealment and our role in the final revelation. To fully grasp this topic, it's essential to comprehend the connection each of us needs to establish between Emunah (faith) and Emes (truth). More succinctly, this involves our faithfulness to the truth. The final redemption depends on each individual building this relationship within themselves. ★ Support this podcast ★
