About ten years ago, the Pew Research Center found that around 85-90% of the global population believes in a deity. At first, this seems promising. But when you dig deeper and ask people to define the god they believe in, you often find that their conception is of a god that doesn’t truly exist. Disturbingly, many Jews share this misconception. In this episode, we explore the significance of the upcoming holiday of Sukkos and how it helps us understand the true nature of our Creator. ★ Support this podcast ★

The Jewish holidays are not evenly spaced out. They appear in bunches. A mere five days after Yom Kippur comes the seven-day (truthfully nine when you tally everything) Festival of Sukkos (appendaged by Shemini Atzeres and Simchas Torah). The next Festival (excluding the Rabbinic holidays of Chanukah and Purim) does not occur for six months. […]

The final Parsha of the Torah contains the blessing of Moshe to the nation, his death, burial, and eulogy. Rashi tells us that his blessing began with a recounting of the offer of the Torah to the Nations and to Israel. Before the Sinai Revelation, God offered the Torah to every other Nation, and they […]

Have you ever pondered the ancient paths that guide modern life? Embark with us on a spiritual journey through the Books of Leviticus and Numbers (Vayikra and Bamidbar), where commandments like kosher laws and the sanctity of speech intertwine to sculpt the route to holiness and spiritual connection. Our series, which scrutinizes the five books of the Torah over five weeks, reaches pivotal moments as we dissect the quintessential desert experience of the Jewish people within Numbers—a narrative steeped in struggle that mirrors the eternal Jewish condition. This episode sets the stage for Deuteronomy's crucial revisitation of Torah teachings, serving as a beacon for navigating the challenges and triumphs of contemporary existence. From the structured tribal encampments of biblical times to the cherished banners signifying unique identities, this episode draws intriguing parallels to today's quest for order and self-identity, akin to modern team affiliations. We probe the rich symbolism behind each tribe's ensign around the Tabernacle, highlighting the enduring need to instill pride and individuality in our communities and in our youth. The discourse extends to the Israelite census, sparking a compelling conversation around DEI (diversity, equity, and inclusion) that questions the equilibrium between inherent disparities and the aspiration for egalitarianism. Dive into the profound stories and interpretations that have molded Jewish thought for generations. We dissect the tales of Hannah, the ordeal of the Sotah, and the discipline of the Nazirite, extracting timeless wisdom on divine justice and personal devotion. The episodes of the ark's travels and the people's discontent with manna serve as potent reminders to cherish gratitude and acknowledge the Almighty's clear and visible guardianship. Join us for an inspirational session that will leave you enriched with lessons from the Torah, ready to face life's journey with a refreshed perspective.

Unraveling the Spiritual Depths of Sukkot

Prepare to embark on an enlightening exploration of Sukkot’s four species symbolism. I promise you'll gain a new perspective on the citron, palm branch, myrtle, and willow, not just as physical entities but as spiritual representations of different parts of our body and our commitment to God. We'll also delve into the profound act of shaking the lulav in all four directions, demonstrating God's reign over the world, and our personal commitment to manifesting the changes we pledged during Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur. Let's dive deeper into the essence of Sukkot, understanding the significance of fully committing to its observance, which includes stepping into the Sukkah with our whole being. This act doesn't merely show obedience, but symbolizes a tangible demonstration of our commitment to Hashem. We'll also delve into why the seemingly trivial requirement of having two and half walls for a kosher Sukkah holds a deeper meaning, symbolizing Hashem’s embrace of our repentance and readiness for transformation. Not forgetting each of the seven days of Sukkot, associated with a unique trait of Hashem. Together, we'll learn how to tap into these traits and how they all eventually lead to the oneness of Hashem. We'll also confront the concept of idolatry, understanding that anything obstructing our service to Hashem can be an idol, and how the four species can help us reach a revelation of Hashem, purifying our connection with God. As we wrap up, we'll understand the importance of fully committing to the mitzvah of Sukkot and how it can foster our relationship with Hashem, and ultimately prepare us for the arrival of Mashiach.

Embark on a transformative journey as we wrap up our Complete Bible Crash Course with a deep dive into the Book of Deuteronomy. Discover the profound insights from Moses's final messages, a reflection of a lifetime of leadership, and the crucial lessons that continue to shape Jewish life and spirituality. As we discuss the importance of daily review and humility, this episode illuminates the relevance of the Shema's declaration of purpose and the compelling narrative of Moses's last days. Together, we unravel the significance of Deuteronomy's teachings, from the nuances of Jewish identity to the spiritual essence of kosher food, and the values of holiness that define a nation chosen to lead by example. Feel the weight of history and the pulsating beat of tradition as we delve into the Jewish lifestyle ordained by Deuteronomy, examining how the laws and values set forth in Torah resonate through our daily practices and ethical considerations. We explore the intersection of spirituality and the mundane—how our relationship with God is intertwined with acts as simple as eating and as complex as judicial governance. This episode also sheds light on the biblical approach to military ethics, social codes, and the embracing of struggle that underpins leadership and growth, emphasizing that the journey towards fulfillment is paved with effort and overcoming challenges. As we close this chapter of our exploration, the Torah emerges not just as a historical document but as a living testament, offering each of us a personal inheritance of wisdom and manual for living. The transition of leadership from Moses to Joshua serves as a powerful reminder that the teachings of the Torah are accessible to all who seek them, inviting continuous questioning and the pursuit of clarity. Join us in contemplating how these eternal lessons guide us in making life-affirming choices, as we honor the legacy of Moses and the enduring spirit of the Torah that calls us to conquer our struggles and find blessings in our endeavors.

A Hug from Hashem - Special Sukkot Episode
Oct 20, 2024
46:57
We entered Rosh Hashanah and declared that Hashem is our King and we are His subjects, allowing us to move into Yom Kippur so we could reflect on our previous year and discern when our thoughts, words, and actions were not congruent with that truth. And now it is time to enter our Sukkahs, designed like His arm reaching around us and holding us close. It’s time to recalibrate back to the truth that the only power is the Almighty and that what is central to our lives is not our careers, politics, and other material pursuits, but simply to serve the King by fulfilling his Torah. In this episode, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe explains why Rosh Hashanah, Yom Kippur, Sukkot, Hoshana Raba, Shmini Atzeret, and Simchat Torah are all connected and much, much more. This podcast was recorded for the Shema Podcast by Dan Kullman, President of TORCH, and joined with Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe, Executive Director of TORCH.

Get ready for a transformative journey as we unlock the profound significance of Yom Kippur and the power it holds for renewal and a clean slate. We'll take you back in time to the historical origin of Yom Kippur, recounting the journey of Moshe to Har Sinai and his return 40 days later. Together, we'll grasp the essence of forgiveness, through the lens of the 13 Attributes of Mercy that Hashem taught Moshe, a gift that continues to guide us even today. If you've ever felt like you missed the opportunity for transformation during Yom Kippur, fret not! We discuss how the gates of change remain open until the end of Yom Hadin, The Day of Judgement. As we pivot from Yom Kippur to Sukkot, we contemplate the cyclic dance of good and challenging experiences that life offers. In this fast-paced world, dominated by technology, we underscore the power of gratitude in finding happiness. If you struggle to maintain a daily gratitude practice, you'll appreciate the words of King David that inspire us to express our thanks a hundred times each day. As we approach Sukkot, a time of joy and celebration, we delve into the importance of Sukkah's and the role it plays in physically manifesting our gratitude. Come along on this intimate exploration of Jewish traditions, and discover a path to personal growth and happiness.

In this gathering, we not only delve into the intricacies of Sukkot but also touch upon the transformative power of repentance and the spiritual elevation it offers. Unravel the layers of repentance, and grasp the power of creating an illusion that can be tested by God to reveal our true source of sustenance.

Have you ever paused to ponder why the Torah starts with the beginning of creation and not just tell us the laws of life? Listen in as we discuss the pressing current events unfolding in Israel, and the profound implications these have on our faith and learning. This episode takes a comprehensive look at the Torah in Parashat Bereishis, along with Rashi’s enlightening commentary on the word 'Bereishis.' As we journey through these teachings, we unravel the deep significance of the backstory of our ancestors and how it intertwines with our right to the land of Israel. We discover that this rich narrative isn't merely history, but an affirmation of our place and purpose as the Jewish people. Moving forward, we delve into the heartening verse from the Torah that calls us to bring both our good and bad inclinations to God. Drawing inspiration from the righteous and holy souls that were brutally murdered by the barbaric animals from Gaza, and the wisdom of the Chofetz Chaim, we reflect on the devotion and unity with which we fulfill mitzvahs. In the final segment, we focus on the sanctity of Shabbos, discussing how we can elevate this day and embrace godliness. Tune in, and let's unravel these teachings, overcome negativity through mitzvahs, and strive to become the greatest people we can be.

Join us as we examine the morality of evil and its consequences in our modern world, using the narrative of Noach from the Torah as a lens. We reflect on why God decided to obliterate all life forms from the face of the earth, and why such an extreme action is deemed necessary in the face of evil. We grapple with the concept of how man's wickedness impacts the innocent, leading to the destruction of birds, animals, and creatures. Noach, the man who maintained his righteousness in the midst of all this wickedness, is also a focus of our discussion. The discussion continues with a contemplation on maintaining a moral compass amidst ridicule and a wicked world. We explore the need to address our own flaws and promote good in the world, drawing lessons from God's instruction to Noach to obliterate evil. We also talk about how the current global events mirror the tales of the Torah, especially the ongoing violence and terrorism from Hamas in Gaza. Tune in for an enlightening conversation that links ancient wisdom with current events, challenging us to reflect on our own actions and choices in today's world.

Ep. 10 - Eden's Six-Hour Mystery
Nov 1, 2024
32:14
What if humanity's greatest mistake wasn't eating the forbidden fruit—but eating it too soon? In this episode of Breakneck Through the Bible, Rabbi Bentzi Epstein reveals a stunning insight about the Garden of Eden: Adam and Eve were mere hours away from being permitted to eat from the Tree of Knowledge. This journey through Eden's final day uncovers revelations about the true nature of the forbidden fruit, which wasn't an apple at all, but rather holds a deeper connection to the bread we eat today. Rabbi Epstein illuminates why God cursed the ground itself, unveiling a profound relationship between soil, free will, and human purpose. As we explore the ten profound changes that reshaped human existence after Eden, we'll discover how these transformations weren't merely punishments, but opportunities for spiritual growth and reconnection with the Divine. The episode then pivots to Noah's invention of the plow - humanity's first step toward rectifying Eden's curse - demonstrating how technological innovation and spiritual purpose can work hand in hand. Through it all, we uncover timeless lessons about the power of asking for forgiveness and the deep significance of Divine timing in our lives. Whether you're deeply versed in Torah or just beginning your journey, this episode will transform how you understand humanity's first chapter. Join Rabbi Epstein for an eye-opening exploration that proves there's always more to the Bible than meets the eye, and discover how these ancient insights remain profoundly relevant to our lives today.

This episode is a transformative journey that promises to enrich your understanding of the Torah portion, Parsha's Lech Lacha. Get ready to draw valuable life lessons from the faith of Abraham and the courage he showed when following Hashem's command. Our exploration takes us deep into the narrative, revealing the promise made by Hashem to bless those who bless Abraham, and curse those who curse him - an insight with profound implications for our life today. We'll also highlight the divine concept - that our ultimate happiness lies in our closeness with Hashem. Delving further, we draw inspiration from the enduring legacy of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Be prepared to discover the power that lies within us, echoed in Abraham's journey, to bring blessings into this world. We'll also examine the significance of becoming an adult at the age of 13 in Jewish tradition and the sense of personal responsibility it instills in us. In our final discussion, we'll pivot to the very purpose of studying Torah. It's more than just observing mitzvahs; it's about forming a profound bond with Hashem. I'll prompt you to take a Chumash, study this week's parasha, and engage with the commentaries. This is your Torah, so make it your own. By doing so, we can learn Hashem's language and strive to align our actions with His wishes. So, tune in, as we navigate through the Torah narratives, unearthing the richness of our faith.

In Mishnah Sanhedrin, we are taught that all of Israel has a share in Olam HaBa (the World to Come). But what about a Jew who does not engage in Torah learning or fulfill the mitzvos? How can they become a receptacle to exist in Olam HaBa without the proper soul rectification through Torah and mitzvos? In this episode, we explore the "Plan B" soul rectifications, and the various compassionate paths designed to guide each soul back to its divine source.

Are you aware of the profound acts of kindness demonstrated by Abraham and his steadfast connection with God? Push your understanding of history and spirituality to new depths as we explore this intriguing topic. Together, we unravel the symbolism of the sun at its brightest and its connection to the time of Mashiach. We also delve into the ten trials Abraham had to pass to affirm his unwavering dedication to God and look into the mission of the three angels who visited him. Brace yourself for a revisit of Sarah’s surprise at the divine proclamation that she would bear a child despite her age. As we journey through this episode, we will also expose the darkest aspects of humanity, as evident in the wickedness of Sodom. We'll draw parallels between Sodom's corruption and contemporary evils, throwing light on the root causes and consequences. This session serves as a wake-up call for vigilance against a hostile world, illuminating the power of individual righteousness in safeguarding our communities. Furthermore, we will shed light on the Jewish virtues of selflessness, dedication, and the delicate equilibrium between mercy and cruelty. We urge everyone to recognize their role in shaping the world positively and to take their responsibilities seriously. So join us on this enlightening journey, gaining insights, drawing parallels, and learning invaluable life lessons.

Immediately after the Sinai Revelation, the Torah begins telling us many of the laws. In this Parsha podcast we focus on two of the laws: the famous verse of “an eye for an eye”, and the requirement to aid your enemy when his donkey is struggling under its load. As is our mandate in year […]

Unlock the sacred power of your words and journey with us into the spiritual heart of Judaism's teachings on speech. This episode weaves a tapestry of timeless wisdom, as we explore the profound impact that words can have on our spiritual connection and the world around us. The Talmud (Sotah 42a) serves as our guide, illuminating the pitfalls of negative speech such as slander and flattery, and revealing how they sever our ties with the divine. Throughout this episode, we share personal reflections and scriptural insights that underscore the significance of language in our everyday lives. We delve into the spiritual essence of the Hebrew alphabet, focusing on how the letters "hay" and "vav" embody the divine attributes of forgiveness and truth. By understanding these concepts, we come to appreciate the role of speech in nurturing our bond with the Creator and the necessity of honesty in our interactions. The conversation also touches upon mitzvot ase and mitzvot lo ta'ase, highlighting how our words can either draw us closer to or push us further from the divine presence. Concluding on an uplifting note, the episode stresses the importance of kindness, the transformative power of judging others favorably, and the profound influence our speech can have in shaping a purposeful existence. We reflect on tales from the Torah and wisdom from King David, emphasizing that positive narratives and ethical communication are vital Jewish imperatives. By the end of our journey together, you'll be inspired to harness the transformative power of your words and to be ever receptive to the subtle divine messages that guide our lives. The Everyday Judaism Podcast by Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe is dedicated to learning, understanding and appreciating the greatness of Jewish heritage and the Torah through the simplified, concise study of Halacha, Jewish Law, thereby enhancing our understanding of how Hashem wants us to live our daily lives in a Jewish way.
