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.

Go Ahead, Indulge.

Apr 30, 2023

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.

Call Home (The Fifth Commandment)

Apr 29, 2023

3:45

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.

You're A Gadol. Deal With It.

Apr 25, 2023

4:15

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.

טהרות "Purities" - Explained

Apr 24, 2023

4:16

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.
