Why Do Christians Detest the Oral Torah with Rabbi Tovia Singer
Why Do Christians Detest the Oral Torah with Rabbi Tovia Singer
Apr 30, 2025
46:51
In this thought-provoking episode, Rabbi Tovia Singer returns to unpack the deep-rooted Christian animosity toward the Oral Torah. From burning Talmudic texts to rejecting the Jewish calendar, Rabbi Singer explores the historical and theological reasons why Church leaders came to see the Oral Law as a threat. He explains how early Christians relied on the Oral Torah, even citing it in the New Testament, and how later Church doctrine turned against it. The discussion delves into missionary tactics, Jewish identity, the development of Christian theology, and how the Oral Torah continues to safeguard Jewish continuity. A vital episode for anyone seeking to understand the enduring power of our Talmud and how it defends against spiritual assimilation. Join the Conversation!

Men and Women are NOT Equal (Parsha In-Focus: Tazria)
Men and Women are NOT Equal (Parsha In-Focus: Tazria)
Apr 30, 2025
21:18
This episode takes us on a journey through the profound lessons of Parsha Tazria, where we discover that our physical deeds are more than just actions; they're gateways to elevating our souls. We'll unpack the sacred act of circumcision and its immediate connection to spirituality, and discuss peeling back the 'foreskin of the heart' to reveal a deeper bond with the divine. Sometimes, the most extraordinary aspects of existence are hidden within the ordinary, and here, we'll share how recognizing the hand of the divine in everyday moments can transform our perspective on life. The narrative then shifts to the spiritual essence of womanhood and how, perhaps, the female soul naturally resonates with the divine in ways that transcend the need for commandments. Through stories and observations, we explore the innate godliness of women and the powerful impact of motherhood, both of which may outshine the spiritual achievements men strive for through religious precepts. We'll recount an emotional experience with my daughter at the hospital that underscored the current societal debates on gender identity. Join us as we contemplate the importance of embracing the unique spiritual and physical attributes that define men and women, rather than diminishing these differences in the pursuit of a misguided sense of equality. This episode (Ep 6.27) of the Parsha Review Podcast by Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe on Parshas Tazria is dedicated in Honor of Dan & Shawna Kullman & 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=sharing Recorded in the TORCH Centre - Studio B to a live audience on April 10, 2024, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on April 11, 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.

Words and Wisdom: The Impact of Speech and Humility (Parsha In-Focus: Metzora)
May 1, 2025
19:25
Explore the transformative power of words with us, in a profound discussion on the latest Parsha Review Podcast. Together, we'll understand how the art of conversation can either fortify or erode the very trust that binds our communities. Tapping into the rich lessons of Parshas Metzora, we'll see how tales of gossip and slander carry weight beyond mere chatter, shaping the essence of "human credit" and the atonement process that follows a slip of the tongue. It's a journey through metaphor and meaning, as we discover how two birds, cedar wood, crimson-dyed wool, and hyssop form an intricate tapestry of symbolism that speaks volumes about overcoming arrogance with humility. Join us for a heartfelt examination of love and sacrifice, where the Torah's teachings resonate with the respect for life and the sanctity of offerings. We delve into the symbolism behind pairing birds in sacrifices, an act that underscores the commitment in our relationship with the Divine. Our conversation extends beyond the realm of the spoken word, as we draw parallels between our daily acts of dedication and the profound commitment expressed in our prayers. This episode is a call to live with intention, to embrace kindness, and to share the light of positivity in every word and action.

Reaping What You Sow: The Power of Positive Influences (Parsha Power: Tazria-Metzora)
Reaping What You Sow: The Power of Positive Influences (Parsha Power: Tazria-Metzora)
May 2, 2025
43:22
In this episode of the Parsha Review Podcast, we explore the portions of Tazria and Metzorah, focusing on themes of purity, spiritual growth, and the impact of environment. Drawing from the opening verse of Tazria (Leviticus 12:1), we discuss the concept of ritual impurity and parallels it with the order of creation, where mankind’s purity follows that of animals, as explained by Rashi and the Midrash. We emphasize the importance of what we "plant" in our lives—both physically and spiritually—using the metaphor of sowing seeds to illustrate how our choices in food, media, and environment shape who we become and how our children develop. Through personal anecdotes, including his grandfather’s journey to Torah scholarship and his own childhood experience in Brooklyn, Rabbi Wolbe underscores the need to protect ourselves and our children from negative influences, such as non-kosher food and harmful media. He also highlights the spiritual significance of kosher laws, explaining how they safeguard the soul, and shares insights into the Jewish concept of Gemachs (free loan societies) as acts of kindness that foster positive community influence. The episode concludes with a call to surround ourselves with virtuous environments to ensure spiritual and moral growth. This episode (Ep 7.27) of the Parsha Review Podcast by Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe on Parshas Tazria-Metzora is dedicated in honor of our President & 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=sharing Recorded at TORCH Meyerland in the Levin Family Studios (B) to a live audience on April 29, 2025, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on May 2, 2025 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.

Embark on a journey toward inner purity with us as we traverse the landscape of spiritual sanctity, enlightened by the teachings of the Parsha of Acharei Mos. Discover the profound significance of Yom Kippur, the Yom HaKadosh, and unravel the intricate balance between positive deeds and the conscious avoidance of negative influences. In a world riddled with challenges to our moral compass, especially in the realms of sexual immorality and forbidden relationships, we delve into the wisdom imparted by our mentor, Rabbi Yitzhak Berkowitz, highlighting the indispensable role of digital filters in maintaining our spiritual wellbeing. As the summer warmth beckons, bringing with it temptations that can cloud our moral clarity, we arm ourselves with the tools needed to uphold our spiritual resolve. We share insights into steering clear of the subtle snares that come with seasonal relaxation, emphasizing the importance of setting personal boundaries just as we would shield a child's innocence. Join us in charting a course through the joys of the sun-drenched months, all while holding fast to our identity as God-fearing individuals, infusing every moment with holiness and serving as a beacon of inspiration for others to recognize the divine within us.

Guarding the Soul Against Temptations (Parsha In-Focus: Acharei)

Embark on a journey toward inner purity with us as we traverse the landscape of spiritual sanctity, enlightened by the teachings of the Parsha of Acharei Mos. Discover the profound significance of Yom Kippur, the Yom HaKadosh, and unravel the intricate balance between positive deeds and the conscious avoidance of negative influences. In a world riddled with challenges to our moral compass, especially in the realms of sexual immorality and forbidden relationships, we delve into the wisdom imparted by our mentor, Rabbi Yitzhak Berkowitz, highlighting the indispensable role of digital filters in maintaining our spiritual wellbeing. As the summer warmth beckons, bringing with it temptations that can cloud our moral clarity, we arm ourselves with the tools needed to uphold our spiritual resolve. We share insights into steering clear of the subtle snares that come with seasonal relaxation, emphasizing the importance of setting personal boundaries just as we would shield a child's innocence. Join us in charting a course through the joys of the sun-drenched months, all while holding fast to our identity as God-fearing individuals, infusing every moment with holiness and serving as a beacon of inspiration for others to recognize the divine within us.

May 7, 2025

Unlock the secrets to cultivating a life of holiness and self-discipline as we are guided through the ancient wisdom of Parshas Kedoshim. Prepare to be inspired by how incorporating self-restraint into your daily routine can elevate your spiritual existence, reflecting the divine. This episode delves into the Torah's call for the Children of Israel to be holy and how this directive is as relevant today as ever. We explore the sage advice on sanctifying ourselves by exercising control even in permissible indulgences, drawing upon the exemplary life of the Chofetz Chaim and the practice of "Taanis HaReivid." Personal anecdotes shed light on the formative impact of kosher laws from a tender age, demonstrating the far-reaching implications of self-control and the understanding of boundaries within our society. Embark on a transformative journey to understanding the value of boundaries and how to impart this crucial life lesson to our children. We discuss the halachic rule preventing children from sitting in their father's seat as more than a mere directive; it's a foundational concept in fostering respect and self-restraint. We touch upon the principle of "Kadesh Atzmecha B'mutar Lach," advocating for the voluntary addition of restrictions to enhance personal holiness. This episode isn't just about rules; it's a heartfelt plea for daily self-improvement, whether you're a seeker of spiritual growth or someone looking to instill timeless values in the next generation, this conversation offers profound insights for a life led with purpose and reverence. This episode (Ep 6.30) of the Parsha Review Podcast by Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe on Parshas Kedoshim is dedicated in Honor of Dovi Wolbe & Adina Netzer on their Engagement & 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=sharing Recorded in the TORCH Centre - Studio B to a live audience on May 17, 2024, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on May 17, 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.

May 8, 2025
1:02:28
Unlock the profound secrets of holiness and spiritual resilience as we journey through the dual Torah portions of Acharei Mos and Kedoshim. By exploring the sacred commandments that guide Jewish life, we uncover the timeless wisdom meant to safeguard against negative influences, drawing from Rashi's insights to highlight the sanctity of the land and the nature of moral conduct. Our discussion invites you to reflect on how divine guidance, as laid out in the Torah, helps navigate the complexities of life, emphasizing the importance of maintaining purity and righteousness in a world filled with challenges. The episode takes a fascinating turn as we explore the transformative power of the number 40 within Jewish tradition—its symbolism woven through stories of Noah, the Israelites, and spiritual practices like the mikvah. Delve into the remarkable narrative of the Rambam, whose ingenious wit and scholarly brilliance left a legacy that continues to inspire. By examining the enduring impact of his Mishnah Torah, we draw parallels to modern efforts, like the ArtScroll translations, that democratize Jewish learning, underscoring a shared commitment to accessible scholarship. Finally, immerse yourself in the deep-seated values of appreciation and respect, as we discuss the mitzvah of covering blood in kosher practices and the concept of Hakaras Hatov. Through historical anecdotes and personal stories, we highlight the importance of gratitude, humane practices, and the moral compass provided by the Torah. This episode is a heartfelt tribute to the principles that define Judaism, reminding us of our responsibilities to each other and to all living creatures, urging us to lead lives filled with honor, kindness, and purpose.

Amidst the hum of life's daily challenges, I found myself pondering the deeper meanings behind adversity and spiritual growth. Our episode today begins with a profound reflection on a Talmudic passage from Tractate Brachot, which contrasts the human experience of loss with the divine joy of gifting the Torah. This exploration sets the stage for a broader conversation on how personal struggles can spark introspection, especially poignant as we honor Yom HaShoah, Holocaust Remembrance Day. We delve into the dualities of human nature, reflecting on both the capacity for cruelty and the remarkable resilience and compassion that define our shared history. Our journey then takes us alongside the Baal Shem Tov to the bustling city of Istanbul, where his unwavering faith in divine providence leads to remarkable encounters just before Pesach. A wealthy couple's hospitality turns into a mystical adventure, emphasizing the power of simple faith and curiosity in spiritual growth. Through his trials and the eventual recitation of the Aleph Bet, we explore the foundational role of learning and faith in our lives, highlighting the profound connection between belief and the pursuit of spiritual enlightenment. Lastly, we turn our attention to the themes of prophecy and suffering, exploring how moments of pain can serve as catalysts for personal growth. Sharing personal stories of illness and resilience, we consider how these experiences can be viewed as divine communication, urging us to seek deeper understanding. Whether it's a burnt hand at Pesach or the enduring health challenges of loved ones, these stories remind us of the importance of introspection and faith. By embracing adversity, we invite opportunities for spiritual alignment and a more profound relationship with the divine. Join us as we navigate the complexities of faith, suffering, and the pursuit of spiritual insight. 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.

Could a single person have stopped the Great Flood? Learn the profound power of individual righteousness as we continue our journey through Noah's story. Rabbi Epstein unpacks the startling revelation that if just one more person had joined Noah's family, the entire world might have been spared—highlighting Noah's tragic failure to influence even a single soul during his 120 years of ark-building. This episode explores the Jewish understanding of communal righteousness, comparing the power of nine righteous individuals to Abraham's later negotiations for Sodom. We also examine our responsibility as stewards of creation, wrestling with complex questions about animal extinction and humanity's role in a world divinely designed. What's the purpose of non-kosher animals? The answer challenges our assumptions about knowledge, medicine, and the hidden functions of all God's creatures. The episode concludes with a beautiful insight about why God Himself had to close the ark door—a divine gesture that answers Noah's impossible dilemma and reveals the perfect harmony of the Creator's plan. Join us for a journey that will transform how you see your own potential to influence the world around you.

In this episode, we delve into the powerful declaration recited before counting the Omer: “For the sake of the unification of the Holy One, blessed is He, and His Divine Presence (Shechinah), in fear and love, to unify the name Yud-Key with Vav-Key in perfect unity, in the name of all Israel.” This phrase encapsulates a central spiritual mission—to unify Hashem’s name—and we explore how this idea is not only mystical, but deeply practical. From Pesukei D’Zimra to Shema, our daily tefillos are structured around this theme. Drawing on insights from Chassidus, the Baal Shem Tov, Rabbi Nachum Ish Gamzu, and contemporary Torah thinkers, this episode offers a path to internalize that all is from Hashem—and ultimately for the good. By minimizing the delay between challenge and trust, between pain and perspective, we take real steps to unify His name and bring the world closer to the era of Moshiach. Join the Conversation!

Ever wondered about the intricate and sacred process behind writing a Torah scroll? Join us on the Everyday Judaism podcast for an "Ask Away" session where we unlock the mysteries surrounding these precious and holy artifacts. From the profound spiritual rituals scribes undertake—like immersing in a mikvah—to the logistical challenges of crafting a Torah in the serene quiet setting, this episode paints a vivid picture of dedication and reverence. We'll explore what happens if a scribe cannot finish a scroll and why the price tag of completing this sacred task is so significant. We also venture into the world of mezuzahs and tefillin, emphasizing the importance of ensuring these sacred items remain kosher. With an engaging story about an invalid mezuzah discovered at a shiva call, we highlight the need for regular checks by qualified scribes and offer practical guidance for their care, especially in challenging climates. Discover the respectful disposal process for non-kosher religious artifacts and learn how to handle sacred printed materials to preserve their sanctity. Moreover, we examine the dynamic nature of halacha and Jewish law, unraveling the customs that dictate when and why we stand during Torah readings, and exploring the specific guidelines for handling Torah scrolls and tefillin with reverence. Our discussion traverses the balance between structured ritual and the flexibility within halacha, touching on the prohibition of reciting Torah passages from memory.

I still remember the day my grandfather shared a profound lesson with me about managing anger, drawing from the timeless wisdom of Jewish teachings. His words, echoing the insights from "Orchos Tzaddikim" (Ways of the Righteous), painted anger not just as a mere emotion but as a disease of the soul that can unravel personal peace and tear apart relationships. Through this episode, we navigate the intricate paths of mastering anger, uncovering how this volatile emotion is equated with evil and even linked to purgatory within Jewish texts. Through personal stories and spiritual teachings, we discuss the importance of empathy, forgiveness, and the remarkable tradition of reciting Kaddish, as shared through a touching anecdote about my grandfather. As the conversation unfolds, we explore the detrimental effects of anger, not only on our spiritual and mental well-being but also on our interactions with others. Anger, often rooted in arrogance and wounded pride, can lead to irrational behavior and potential sin, as illustrated through the story of a frustrated driver who repeatedly rammed their car. We also emphasize the importance of how charity is given, highlighting that generosity is not merely about the monetary value but the spirit in which it is offered. Throughout the episode, we reflect on the teachings of the Mishnah, underscoring the value of patience and calmness, especially for those guiding others, and the broader social consequences of unchecked anger. The journey continues with a focus on forgiveness and personal transformation. We highlight the power of letting go of grudges and choosing happiness over being right, particularly in relationships. By sharing stories of turning hurt into prayer and the remarkable outcomes from unwavering faith, we showcase the transformative potential of aligning oneself with divine intentions. Through the lens of Rabbi Yisroel Salanter's teachings, we emphasize that real change starts within, impacting not just ourselves but our communities and the world at large. Join us on this inspiring exploration of mastering anger and fostering spiritual growth, where faith and resilience lead to extraordinary outcomes.

The first law (of dozens) featured in our Parsha tells of a Jewish bondsman who chooses to voluntarily extend his servitude past the required 6 years. This bondsman is brought to a door or a doorpost and has his ear pierced. Why is his ear pierced? Because he failed to listen carefully at Sinai. This […]

Did you know we all descend from history's first murderer? Or that Adam separated from Eve for 130 years, during which time spiritual "demons" were created that still exist today? In this captivating episode of Breakneck through the Bible, Rabbi Bentzi Epstein and Tom Levine explore the surprising hidden wisdom within the genealogy from Adam to Noah. Discover why ancient humans lived for nearly a millennium, why we say "God bless you" when someone sneezes, and the mysterious case of Enoch—a man so righteous that he didn’t leave the earth the way the rest of us do. Rabbi Epstein unveils the four profound reasons people die according to Jewish wisdom, sharing insights that have brought genuine comfort to those facing loss. The conversation takes fascinating turns as they examine which biblical patriarch requested that humans experience illness before death, why another asked for visible aging, and what these seemingly mundane details reveal about divine purpose. Most importantly, you'll gain perspective on what makes a life truly meaningful beyond mere longevity. Join Rabbi Epstein and Tom as they transform what appears to be a simple list of names into timeless wisdom about purpose, relationships, and the true measure of a life well-lived—all as the world approaches the dramatic events of the Great Flood.

What if anger is not just an emotion, but a barrier that holds us back from experiencing life's goodness? Join us on the Jewish Inspiration Podcast as we explore the complexities of anger and its ripple effects on our personal and spiritual journeys. Together, we'll uncover how unchecked anger can fuel conflict, jealousy, and a hardened heart toward others, especially those less fortunate. With insights drawn from rich Jewish teachings, we shine a light on the blind spots that perpetuate these destructive patterns. By recognizing our limitations, we pave the way for humility, empathy, and compassion that can transform both our inner world and our relationships with others. Guided by the wisdom of the Torah and the lessons of King Solomon, we also examine the art of communicating without anger. Discover how gentle guidance, as exemplified by the stories of Hillel and Shammai, can break down barriers and invite growth and understanding. Through a tapestry of narratives and teachings, we explore the lasting impact of patience and kindness, not only on those around us but on ourselves. Listen in as we unravel the virtues of humility and selflessness, revealing how these qualities empower us to navigate life's challenges with grace and maintain harmony in our interactions. This episode is a heartfelt journey into the profound strength found in patience and the transformative power of love and understanding.
