In one of the darkest chapters of Sefer Shoftim, we encounter a time when there was no king in Israel—and no boundaries. Part 5 of Nach Stories brings two haunting episodes to life: Micha’s homemade religion, led by none other than the grandson of Moshe Rabbeinu, and the gruesome tale of the Pilegesh who was betrayed, leading to a civil war that nearly erased an entire tribe from Klal Yisrael. Through immersive narration and rich sound design, this episode explores what happens when a society has no leaders, no accountability, and no clarity between right and wrong. These stories are raw, real, and recorded in the pesukim with painful detail—for a reason.

Melachim 1 – Lesson 03 – The Importance of Shmiras HaLoshon (Guarding Speech), The Kingdom of Israel is Split
Nov 21, 2021
41:01
00:00 – Why, after centuries of tears and prayers, has the final geulah (redemption) not yet arrived? As long as Am Yisrael lacks unity, the Beis HaMikdash (Holy Temple) cannot be rebuilt. 03:50 – It’s forbidden to speak loshon hara (slander) against Eretz Yisrael (the Land of Israel). 08:09 – Achieving unity within even a small group of Jews is the key to establishing harmony within the entire People of Israel. The ARIzal tested his students in this unity, and they failed. Disputes between Jews led to the destruction of the Beis HaMikdash. 12:47 – The importance of shmiras haloshon – guarding one’s speech. 14:57 – Midrash brings a moshol (allegory) about how misusing speech can bring about a person’s downfall. “Life and death are within the power of the tongue.” 18:53 – Stories about perfected speech. Rebbe Nachman’s Taanis dibur (not speaking) during the first day of Rosh HaShanah. 22:59 – A recent Breslover chasid who excelled in perfected speech was known as the “Silent Reb Nachman”. He was a close student of Rabbi Avraham (Kokhav-Lev) Sternhartz z”l. He spoke no mundane words for fifty years. 25:46 – To speak against the Land of Israel or its Jewish inhabitants is like speaking against the Shekhina (Divine Presence of Hashem). 26:45 – The confrontation between Shlomo HaMelech (King Solomon) and the king of the demons, Ashmidai. The division of the Kingdom of Israel after the reign of Shlomo HaMelech began when Yeravom ben Nevat (Jeroboam, from the tribe of Ephraim) spoke disrespectfully against Shlomo HaMelech. 29:32 – Achiya HaShiloni, one of the greatest prophets who ever lived, was the teacher of Eliyahu HaNavi (Elijah the Prophet). Foreseeing that the Kingdom of Israel would be split, he offered the rulership of ten of the tribes to Yeravom ben Nevat. 33:21 – After Shlomo HaMelech’s passing, his son Rechavam became king. Yeravom ruled over ten tribes and misled them into idol worship.

Melachim 1 – Lesson 01 – Dovid HaMelech Transfers the Kingship to Shlomo HaMelech
Melachim 1 – Lesson 01 – Dovid HaMelech Transfers the Kingship to Shlomo HaMelech
Nov 7, 2021
39:30
00:00 – In his later years, Dovid HaMelech took Avishag as a concubine. He already had the permitted number of wives but he did not divorce any of his previous wives in order to marry her because 1) the Torah does not favor divorce, although it’s permitted; and 2) this union was not physical. 03:55 – Adam HaRishon gave 70 years of his own life to Dovid HaMelech. Why that number? 07:12 – There are ten sefiros (levels) of kedusha (holiness): three upper levels and seven lower. Adam gave 70 years corresponding to the seven lower sefiros. 08:37 – However, since these 70 years were spiritually incomplete, the tikkun (correction/completion) of these years came from: Avraham Avinu (five years), Yaakov Avinu (28 years), and Yosef HaTzaddik (37 years). Why did Yosef give so many years, while no years were given by Yitzchak? 11:18 – There are two moshiachs (anointed king of Israel): Moshiach ben Yosef and Moshiach ben Dovid. 13:40 – Dovid HaMelech lived 70 years, passing away in the afternoon of his 70th birthday, (Shavuos). 15:18 – On Dovid HaMelech‘s last day, he spoke with his son Shlomo (Solomon) to insure that Adonyahu and Yoav would not be able to take over the kingdom. 16:58 – Nasan HaNavi (Nathan the Prophet) advises Dovid HaMelech‘s wife, Basheva (Batsheva) to intercede on behalf of her son Shlomo. 19:42 – Dovid HaMelech‘s final words and requests. 21:14 – Shlomo HaMelech‘s first acts as king included fulfilling his father’s commands to bring Yoav and Shimi Ben Gera to justice. *23:51 – Yoav fled to the mishkan (tabernacle), but it did not serve as a sanctuary. Dovid HaMelech had placed a curse on Yoav and his family, but that curse eventually plagued the descendants of Dovid. Whoever wishes evil for another endangers himself. It is better to be cursed than to curse. 24:56 – Shmiras HaLoshon (guarding one’s speech) is a central Torah law. Speech has irrevocable power, and misusing it brings serious and far-reaching consequences, even for a tzaddik and his descendants. 31:29 – Adonyahu asks permission to marry Avishag. *39:03 – Shlomo HaMelech (King Solomon) was crowned while his father, Dovid HaMelech (King David), was still alive. A question of Torah law arises when Dovid HaMelech is nistalek (passes away) on Shabbos, when it is forbidden to move a dead body. How the expression “Better to be a live dog than a dead lion” alludes to the fact that tefilas chatzos (the midnight prayer) counteracts negative forces. How Dovid HaMelech‘s histalkus on Shabbos can strengthen our faith that a tzaddik never abandons Am Yisrael (the People of Israel).

00:00 – Jewish history resembles the waxing and waning of the moon: there were fifteen generations from Avraham Avinu to Shlomo Hamelech and the Beis HaMikdash. 12:12 – There are two kinds of wisdom – upper and lower. 13:02 – Following Shlomo Hamelech were 16 generations to Galus Bavel (the Babylonian exile). 20:52 – Gan Eden and Gehinnam are separated by a very thin, almost imperceptible boundary. 24:00 – How anger destroys a person’s soul. 25:37 – The importance of answering אמן to a blessing. 28:00 – Hashem rewards good deeds far more than He punishes for mistakes. 33:09 – Why two people can never be compared. 34:16 – The waning of the moon resembles the thin boundary between Gan Eden and Gehinnam. The decline of Am Yisrael in the generations after Shlomo HaMelech. While the nations that conquered Israel eventually disappeared, Am Yisrael is compared to the phoenix. 35:58 – Blessing of the new moon. *37:41 – “For a person who has daas – it’s as if the Beis HaMikdash is rebuilt in his days” (Sanhedrin 92a).

00:00 – Brief review of previous shiur in Sefer Daniel. 02:29 – Daniel’s interpretation of Nebuchadnezzar‘s dream. Daniel is elevated to the highest post in Bavel and the king recognizes and acknowledges the absolute supremacy of Hashem. 06:10 – Introduction to the miracle of Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah in the fiery furnace. Why did Nebuchadnezzar stop believing in Hashem? This questions applies to all nations that attempt to harm Am Yisrael. Similarities between Hitler and Roosevelt יש”ו – both were against the Jewish People, but went about causing harm in different ways. 14:05 – The word gematria means “numerical value”. Refugees from Korea were accepted but the Jews during World War II were not. 16:53 – During the Sinai Campaign in 1956 the United States united with Russia against Israel. 19:13 – Anti-semitism results in suicidal behavior. 22:09 – Nebuchadnezzar built a statue based on his dream and commanded everyone to bow down to it. By forcing the Jews to do this, his goal was to prevent the fulfillment of his dream, in which Moshiach ultimately triumphed over his kingdom. 28:37 – Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah speak to the king about the self-sacrifice of the frogs during the ten plagues. 34:47 – Introduction to Nebuchadnezzar‘s dream of the tree.

00:00 – The Battle of Yericho (Jericho). The unusual faith of Rachav in protecting the People of Israel shows how a person who comes from the lowest depths can rise to the highest spiritual levels. “There’s no such thing as a person having passed the point of no return.” – Rabbi Zvi Aryeh Rosenfeld z”l. 06:00 – Why didn’t Yehoshua/Joshua have any sons? This was a punishment for having stated a Torah law in front of his teacher, Moshe Rabbeinu. The Zohar, however, says that Yehoshua did no sin. 08:30 – The battle of Ai and the death of a Jewish warrior who was “like” 36 men – Yair ben Menashe, even though Hashem had assured Israel they would be victorious. Why this casualty? 11:00 – The lottery to find the person who disobeyed the commandment not to loot the city of Yericho. 12:30 – “No matter how bad his behavior, a Jew still retains the holy title of Jew.” – Rabbi Zvi ARyeh Rosenfeld z”l. 13:00 – The lottery is arranged because Hashem refuses to speak Loshon Hara (evil report) about a Jew. The culprit – Achan – is found and he confesses. 16:00 – The power of viduy (confession). 17:00 – The strategy against the city of Ai that led to victory was used by the Israeli army in the war of 1967. 18:00 – The importance of establishing and upholding effective judicial system to combat evil. Judges who are too liberal and show mercy when it’s not warranted are themselves criminal. 24:50 – The deception of the inhabitants of Gibeon in offering a false treaty of peace. 29:00 – Yehoshua commands the sun to halt during the battle against Gibeon.

00:00 – Daryavesh, king of the Chaldeans, conquers Bavel (Babylonia). *07:58 – Why a person should daven (pray) in a place where he can see the sky through a window. 13:34 – Comparison between Daniel being thrown into the lion’s den and the selling of Yosef HaTzaddik. “Save me from the hand of man.” 14:40 – Why is a scorpion more dangerous than a snake? 19:20 – King Daryavesh discovers that Daniel is still alive in the lion’s den. Daniel relates how an angel protected him from the lions, and that the Navi Habakuk had stayed with him as well. 21:32 – Habakuk was chosen to stay with Daniel because he is a symbol of techiyas hameysim (revival of the dead). 24:05 – The story of Daniel describes, in a hidden way, the process of the revelation of Moshiach. 24:19 – Why does a person suffer? “HaTeva” is, b’gematria, “Elokim”. 28:59 – How would a person go about performing miracles? What is nature? 32:14 – The main teaching of Rebbe Nachman is simple faith. *35:39 – Maintaining simple faith, even in the difficult times before Moshiach is revealed.
