54: Parshas Behaaloscha- Driving On Hashem's Highway

Jun 1, 2023

17:01

In Parshas Behaaloscha, we encounter a recurring verse that states, "At the commandment of Hashem they journeyed, and at the commandment of Hashem they encamped." This repetition may raise questions in our minds: Why is it emphasized so frequently? Why is the wording extensive? Similarly, we wonder about the existence of ten sefirot instead of just one. Couldn't Hashem have created the world with a single attribute? Furthermore, Judaism seems to place great importance on the minutiae, from which shoe to put on first to the specific order of our actions. Does Hashem truly concern Himself with such details? Does He genuinely care about our every action? To gain a deeper understanding of these questions and to explore how they impact our daily lives, let us embark on a metaphorical drive down the highway of enlightenment. Join us on the Prism of Torah podcast as we delve into the significance of these seemingly small details and discover how they can truly make a difference. Along the journey, we will uncover how Hashem's precise guidance and attention to detail serve as powerful tools for enhancing our day-to-day lives. Buckle up, tune in, and witness the transformative potential of aligning ourselves with the divine intricacies of existence.

48: Acharei Mos-Kedoshim Break the Root(ine) of our downfall In this episode, we will explore how to break free from the “auto pilot” mode that can make us lose our passion and enthusiasm for avodas Hashem, the service of G-d.
