Beis Medrash of Wall Street (Weekly Parsha)

Jul 11, 2023

5:14

Imagine every aspect of your life as a verse in the Torah, even the hustle of your livelihood, from the office to the marketplace. That's the provocative idea we explore in this episode, inspired by the profound statement made by Rabbi Yosef Elephant Shlita suggesting that Mosheach is a Baal ha'bas. Ride along with us as we delve into the story of Parseh's Matos, where the Jewish people are charged to wage war against the Midyanim and share the spoils. We then navigate this episode's narrative, drawing parallels between the distribution of war spoils and our everyday grind, asserting that each dollar earned is a sacred sugya, a topic of Talmudic discussion. We find inspiration in the European Jews who wore the same Jewish cap in the office and in the base Medrish, underlining the notion that everything in a Jew's life, including Parnasa (livelihood), is Torah. By intertwining our faith with our business, we reiterate the mission's statement that all Torah without work will eventually be nullified. This episode concludes with a resonating message that while the Torah should be learned first, remember, in the life of a Jew, everything is Torah.
