From shopping for new Yom Tov clothing for the kids to setting up our learning schedules for the night, we go all in to celebrate this holy holiday.

At the core of Shavuos, we find exuberant celebration and gratitude for being chosen by God to learn His Torah and walk in His ways. The Gemara says that on Shavuos, we all agree that we must celebrate with cheesecake and our parties because we should be proud of being chosen as children of God. I'll share a personal story about recognizing the significance and joy of our unique and special mission and how lucky we are to have been chosen by God. Don't miss this heartfelt reminder to rejoice, sing, and dance on Shavuos!Support the show---------------- SUBSCRIBE to The Weekly Parsha for an insightful weekly shiur on the Parsha of the week.

Rav Yeruchom Levovitz
Rav Yeruchom Levovitz
May 21, 2023
5:27
Rav Yeruchom Levovitz, whose Hebrew name was ירוחם ליוואוויץ and was also known as The Mashgiach by his hundreds of students, was a famous mashgiach ruchani and baal mussar (Jewish Ethics) at the Mir yeshiva in Belarus. He was born in 1875 (5635 in the Jewish calendar) in Lyuban, Minsk Voblast, Belarus (near Slutsk), to Avraham and Chasya Levovitz. Rav Yeruchom received his education in the yeshivas of Slobodka and Kelm and was a disciple of Rav Nosson Tzvi Finkel and Rav Simcha Zissel Ziv of Kelm.Rabbi Yeruchom Levovitz was the spiritual leader of the Mir Yeshiva in Belarus until he died in 1936. His disciples were said to have followed his every word, never doing anything they "felt" he would not want them to do. Most of the leaders of the yeshivas of inter-war Poland were Levovitz's disciples, and they would come on occasion to visit him and seek his advice. After World War II, much of orthodox Jewry in Europe and their many yeshivas (Jewish schools of higher learning) were wiped out. One of the only yeshivas to survive as a whole body was the Mir Yeshiva, which managed to escape to Shanghai, China, and then on to America.Some of R' Yeruchom's better-known disciples include Simcha Zissel Halevi Levovitz, Avrohom Levovitz, Chaim Shmulevitz, Dovid Povarsky, Isser Yehuda Malin, Aryeh Leib Malin, Abba Berman, Zelik Epstein, Shimon Schwab, Shlomo Wolbe, Zeidel Smiatcky, Aryeh Leib Bakst, Chaim Wysoker, Binyomin Zeilberger, and Nachum Patrovitz. His many discourses and lectures are preserved for posterity in the following sefarim: "Daas Torah," "Daas Chochma U'Mussar," "Shvivai Daas," and "Sifsai Daas on Pirkei Avos," which are a staple of many yeshiva libraries today, as well as many Orthodox Jewish households. He died on the 18th of Sivan in the year 1936 at the age of sixty-three. He is buried in the town of Mir, Belarus, and his grave site (recently rebuilt by his family) is a common destination for the many Jewish tourists who visit the decimated cities of pre-war Eastern Europe.Support the show---------------- SUBSCRIBE to The Weekly Parsha for an insightful weekly shiur on the Parsha of the week.

Baruch Dayan Ha'Emes: The Stamford Rosh Yeshiva, HaRav Meir Hershkowitz, has returned his soul to his Maker. We mourn the loss of a Torah giant who devoted his life to studying and teaching the Torah. His legacy lives on through the thousands of Talmidim he has taught around the globe and the generations of Torah he has Meyased. May his memory be a blessing.As his funeral and levaya are taking place, we are reminded of his immense impact on the Jewish community. He co-founded Yeshiva Bais Binyomin in Stamford, Connecticut, alongside Rav Simcha Schustal, zt" l, and was the Rosh Yeshiva for many years. Rav Hershkowitz was not just a Rosh Yeshiva but a beloved father and father-in-law. He was the father of Mrs. and father-in-law of Rabbi Ezra Neuberger, an inspiration to many.Our hearts go out to his family, friends, and students during this challenging time. May they find comfort and solace in the Torah he taught and his positive influence on the world.Support the show ---------------- SUBSCRIBE to The Weekly Parsha for an insightful weekly shiur on the Parsha of the week.

Being a part of the Jewish people enables us to draw from a wealth of spiritual heritage, customs, and beliefs passed down for generations. We constantly connect to our rich history through prayer, study, and observance of mitzvot (commandments). This connection is felt deeply in our hearts when we pray or perform an act of goodness. Something is fulfilling about performing an action done throughout Jewish history that connects you with your ancestors. WIt'se is building on their legacy as they once did on their forefathers' legacy before them. In today's short torah talk, we delve into an eye-opening insight from Naftali Zvi Yehuda Berlin (20 November 1816 in Mir, Russia – 10 August 1893 in Warsaw, Poland), also known as Reb Hirsch Leib Berlin, commonly known by the acronym Netziv.Support the show ---------------- SUBSCRIBE to The Weekly Parsha for an insightful weekly shiur on the Parsha of the week.

The fifth commandment of the Aseres Hadibros says, “Honor thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the Lord they God giveth thee” (Exodus 20:12). This commandment is as relevant today as it was thousands of years ago. We should always honor our parents and show them respect, regardless of their age or feelings.Honoring your parents means more than saying “please” and “thank you.” It includes being aware of their needs and offering help whenever possible. It also involves listening to them and taking their advice seriously. Respect for our parents can help us grow into responsible adults with a strong sense of morality.Honoring our parents can also bring us closer to God. When we respect our parents, we respect the one who created them — namely, God himself. We should always strive to be an excellent example for others and honor our parents as part of that effort. This is a way of recognizing their importance in our lives and thanking God for everything they have done for us and given us.

In total, Rebbe Akiva had 24,000 students who were devoted to him and devoted to the Almighty. However, tragedy struck when a plague killed all 24,000 students. This was a massive blow to Rebbe Akiva and Jewish tradition, as it meant that much knowledge would be lost with the passing of these great students. Despite this tragedy, Rebbe Akiva continued to teach Torah and was able to pass his teachings on to future generations. His story is a testament to the strength and resilience of Judaism in the face of adversity. The loss of his 24,000 students was tragic, but their memory will continue to live on for centuries to come. Rebbe Akiva's story is an important reminder that we should never give up our faith, no matter how difficult it may become. His example of courage and devotion to Judaism is one we should strive to emulate in our lives.

The Tohoros covers a wide range of topics, from the laws of ritual purity and impurity to rules governing the niddah (menstrual) period, interpersonal relations between husband and wife, physical contact between men and women that is forbidden by Torah law, the laws of Taharat HaMishpacha (family purity), and more. The tractates included in this order are Beitzah (Egg), Chullin (Animals slaughtered for food), Kelim (Utensils), Ohalot (Tents/tabernacles), Nega'im (Skin Diseases & Leprosy), Parah (Cows used in Temple Services), Tahorot (Purities - overview of laws of purity), Mikvaot (Ritual Baths), Niddah (Menstruation & marital relations during this period), Makhshirin (Wines & Foods susceptible to ritual impurity), Zabim (Issues related to leprosy and skin diseases) and Tevul Yom (Immersion for the purification of a person - not found in Mishnah). Each tractate deals with different topics, but all relate to the overarching theme of ritual purity. The Tohoros is an integral part of Jewish law, as it discusses issues such as incestuous relationships and proper family hygiene that help preserve the sanctity of marriage and protect the physical health of individuals. It is a vital part of the Talmud and integral to Jewish life and practice. The Tohoros is a complex set of laws requiring in-depth study, but it is necessary to maintain the spiritual health of individuals, families, and communities. The topics discussed within this order are essential for understanding and implementing proper family purity practices in Jewish homes today. With its comprehensive coverage of critical religious issues related to cleanliness and purity, the Tohorot is an invaluable resource for anyone interested in learning more about these aspects of Judaism.

Welcome to The Motivation Congregation Season Four! In today's episode: Kosher food has long been part of Jewish life and is essential to a kosher lifestyle. But what does it mean to live a "kosher" life? To ensure that our lives align with the principles and laws outlined in the Torah, we must remain aware of how daily decisions can affect us spiritually. This means being conscious and conscientious when choosing which foods to eat and looking out for spiritual signs that guide us to ensure our lifestyles are kosher. These signs can be found everywhere – both outside and inside ourselves. They provide insight into who we want to be as individuals, helping us better understand our greater purpose in life.

Hashem Saves In The Blink Of An Eye
Hashem Saves In The Blink Of An Eye
Apr 17, 2023
3:07
We often witness Hashem's hand in the extraordinary and unexpected. We are reminded of the milestones that G-d has performed and continues to perform for us daily. The splitting of the Red Sea is one such momentous event - when it would seem impossible to escape from an enemy advancing upon them, G-d parted the sea so they could march through safely on dry land. The Torah speaks of how miraculous salvation happens even quicker than the blink of an eye (Shmot 14:30). It was "in a split second," as Rashi puts it, that Hashem saved Am Yisrael from specific danger. This highlights two important points about our relationship with G-d. First, Hashem always provides us with salvation and support when needed. And second, Hashem's power is dynamic and instantaneous - our prayers are answered in a split second by an omnipotent force. We must never forget the miracles that G-d has done for us in our lives, those of generations past and those yet to come. We can take comfort in knowing that no matter what challenges or obstacles arise on our journey through life, Hashem will be there at every step to lend us aid and guidance. May we all continue to experience the power of miraculous salvations "in a split second." Amen!My Favorite Podcasts Right Now:1.

The Torah's View on Competition (Pesach Takeaway)
The Torah's View on Competition (Pesach Takeaway)
Apr 14, 2023
3:41
Competition gives us a unique perspective on the world, gives us a sense of accomplishment, and can be incredibly rewarding. The Torah teaches us that completion is essential and should not be taken lightly. We must strive to improve ourselves to reach our full potential while never using competition as an excuse to bring another person down. The ancient Jewish sages taught that success comes from hard work and dedication rather than taking shortcuts or belittling others. Completing tasks that are meaningful to us will result in growth and development both mentally and spiritually. Achieving something reminds us of our capabilities, opening new possibilities for additional accomplishments. In addition to providing a sense of accomplishment, completing tasks can also create a connection between ourselves and God. By actively striving to achieve our goals, we demonstrate that we believe in the greatness of something greater than ourselves. The Torah says, “You shall serve the Lord your God with all your heart and soul” (Deuteronomy 10:12). This verse emphasizes the importance of hard work and dedication to show reverence for something bigger than us.

On the seventh day of Pesach, a miraculous event occurred. After centuries of enslavement and oppression, the sea miraculously split, allowing the Jewish people to escape the clutches of their oppressors. This divinely-orchestrated miracle offered a path to freedom that seemed impossible before. Walking across dry land, they were filled with hope for a better future.
