Rosh Hashana - Confidently Confident
Rosh Hashana - Confidently Confident
Oct 1, 2024
3:51
There is a Halacha that one should bathe and have a haircut before Rosh Hashana because we're confident in the outcome. However, the Gemara tells us that we don't say Hallel on Rosh Hashana due to its severity. So what is it? It seems like a contradiction?!?!?
155
Parshas Hazinu - Sleep & Death
Parshas Hazinu - Sleep & Death
Sep 30, 2024
3:28
Sleep and death are related not just because we're not (totally) here. It could also be because a person can't be told to do either of them by someone else.

We down here in this world have the power to make Halachic decisions. How is that possible? Isn't the Torah spiritual? Yes, it is. But we mortals can become immortal through it.

Parshas Ki Savo - It's Not You, It's Him
Sep 20, 2024
4:01
Bikkurim shows us that what we yield is only due to Hashem's help. That could be why it's read before Rosh Hashana. To remind us who the Real King is.

Parshas Ki Seitzei - The Anti Amalek
Sep 13, 2024
3:43
Amalek jumped right into the hot, scalding bath. They did the exact opposite of how one conquers the Yetzer Hara. Don't be like them.
163
Elul - The First Step Has Been Taken
Elul - The First Step Has Been Taken
Sep 11, 2024
4:36
One may think that to do teshuva you have to take the first step and initiate the process. However, it's not true. The first step has already been taken. Hashem is already here. He's making it so much easier for us than you may think.
164
Parshas Ki Seitzei - Beating The Yetzer Hara
Parshas Ki Seitzei - Beating The Yetzer Hara
Sep 9, 2024
4:37
One who wants to beat the Yetzer Hara should consider it a disgusting piece of filth. Make it disgusting in your eyes and then you can overcome the challenge placed in front of you at that moment.

Parshas Shoftim - The Anti False Witnesses
Parshas Shoftim - The Anti False Witnesses
Sep 6, 2024
4:47
Eidem Zomimim is paid back with whatever they wanted to be done to the accused. However, HKB"H doesn't act that way towards us. He doesn't deal with us in the same manner. He gives us a lot more wiggle room
166

Sep 4, 2024

Everyone has an area that they excel in. During this time of Elul that we're holding in, perhaps its a good idea to use that area to bring it out in the open and get more merits for the coming year.

Sep 2, 2024

There are certain individuals who the Torah lets go home and not go to battle. They are not holding by waging war at this moment. Not only that, but it may be an aveira to go.

Parshas Reah - Our Father, Our Rebbe
Parshas Reah - Our Father, Our Rebbe
Aug 30, 2024
4:36
The Torah calls us Hashem's sons. What specifically makes us His sons? That we're physically alive, or that we have an eternal life? It's both!!
169

Parshas Reah - Mitzrayim vs. Amalek
Aug 28, 2024
3:37
Both Amalek and Mitzrayim played significant roles in our history. As a result, both of them need to be remembered. But how and when to remember them is vastly different.

Parshas Reah - Perspectives
Aug 26, 2024
3:58
The same exact thing can be seen by two different people in a totally opposite view. What one person may like, the other one may not. It's all up to the individual.

Parshas Eikev - Every Mitzvah Needs Attention
Parshas Eikev - Every Mitzvah Needs Attention
Aug 23, 2024
3:09
Just accepting upon oneself עול מלכות שמים does not suffice. One needs to accept every mitzvah individually as well. Hashem wants individual attention to everything done. Not just an overall general acceptance.
172

Parshas Eikev - An Equilibrium of Fear and Love
Aug 21, 2024
4:38
The passuk asks us to fear Hashem, yet it says that we have to love Him as well. This teaches us how to balance our Avodas Hashem through everything we do. We need to both love and fear. The trick is how to walk that delicate line.
173
Tu B'Av - Build Your Own Beis Hamikdash
Tu B'Av - Build Your Own Beis Hamikdash
Aug 19, 2024
4:41
It's no coincidence that Tu B'av follows shortly after Tisha B'av. After mourning the Beis Hamikdash we transition to one of the happiest days of the year. When a couple has peace and harmony in their house, they also have the Shechina there together with them. If we haven't been zoche to have the Beis Hamikash yet, we can have it in every home individually.
174

Aug 16, 2024

What is so integral about the pasuk of "Shema"?? Why the repetition of "Hashem" in the pasuk?? The Abarbanel illuminates the pasuk for us.

Post Tisha Bav Thoughts - The Nechama Proccess
Post Tisha Bav Thoughts - The Nechama Proccess
Aug 14, 2024
4:54
After Tisha Bav we have seven weeks of nechama as opposed to three weeks of פרעניות from Shivah Asar Btamuz till tisha Bav. Perhaps it is because we need to feel and commiserate with Shechina for that long and then we can accept HKB"H as our King on Rosh Hashanah.
176
Tisha Bav - The Longest Mourning
Tisha Bav - The Longest Mourning
Aug 12, 2024
4:40
Tisha Bav is not like mourning for a close relative who passes away. If that was the case, we should have ceased to mourn long ago. The mourning signifies that this is very different. We know that it will come to an end. The day will come that redemption will come.
177

Parshas Devarim - How To Win A War
Aug 9, 2024
4:19
At the end of the parsha Moshe Rabbeinu tells Bnei Yisrael the secret to winning a war. No, it's not about different tactics on the ground or in the air. It's about the Only One who you can you rely on.
178

Parshas Devarim - Moshe Rabbeinu Made a Joke
Aug 7, 2024
3:45
Moshe Rabbeinu started rebuking Klal Yisrael by telling them a joke in order that they should be receptive. When a person is in a jovial mood, he's more receptive to what is being said.
179

Parshas Devarim - Eicha Explained
Aug 5, 2024
4:30
Moshe, Yeshaya, & Yermiyah all used the term "eichah". When they said it, they all had the same sentiment. It wasn't to be taken literally. It was more rhetorical. How did such a holy nation fall to such depths?!?! How could it be?!?!?
180
Parshas Masei - Enjoy The Journey
Parshas Masei - Enjoy The Journey
Aug 2, 2024
4:02
The Torah goes out of its way to tell us every stop that was made on the way to Eretz Yisrael. Every stop had a purpose, had a reason. It wasn't for naught. So too, a person can have different stops along the way that they didn't to make. In the end though, it too, was for for a purpose.
181

Parshas Masei - The Torah Is Given Again
Jul 31, 2024
3:15
One of the places Bnei Yisrael traveled to in the desert was Midbar Sinai. But the Torah here makes no mention of what took place there, unlike by other stops they had along the way. R Moshe Feinstein z'l approaches this in a practical way for us today.
182
Parshas Matos - Make Commitments, But Don't Commit
Parshas Matos - Make Commitments, But Don't Commit
Jul 29, 2024
4:15
The Parsha starts out talking about making vows. What does that have to do with the end of the end of the parsha last week? Perhaps it's coming to tell us that when you commit to do an undertaking, it's not to be taken lightly. Make sure you say "bli neder".
183
Parshas Pinchas - Leadership 101
Parshas Pinchas - Leadership 101
Jul 26, 2024
4:50
Pinchas was immensely rewarded for his act. But he didn't take over as leader after Moshe Rabbeinu. That was Yehoshua. Perhaps that could be because when someone does such a cruel act he's viewed differently. He can't be seen as cruel and be a leader at the same time..
184

Jul 24, 2024

Parshas Balak - Curses To Blessings
Parshas Balak - Curses To Blessings
Jul 19, 2024
2:56
Every time Balak tried to curse Klal Yisrael it turned into a blessing. The worst turned into the best. The same can be said by us. It seems like the worst has taken place, but in reality, its the best.
187

Parshas Balak - Bilam Didn't Get The Message
Jul 17, 2024
4:53
You'd think that after failing once, Bilam would stop to get rid of Klal Yisrael. But he didn't stop. He refused to get the message. His advise to Pharaoh failed, and now this also did. Not only that, but his curses turned into brachas.
188

Jul 15, 2024
4:22
The difference between Avraham Avinu & Bilam is very stark in a number of ways. But Bilam took it to a new low. He ended up like an animal.

Parshas Chukas - The Power of a Gadol
Jul 12, 2024
4:34
In the parsha we have the death of both Aharon & Miriam. When they passed away, something disappeared from within Klal Yisrael. The power that a tzaddik has is enormous. If you know one, don't let him get away.
190
Parshas Chukas - Even If You Understand, You Don't
Parshas Chukas - Even If You Understand, You Don't
Jul 10, 2024
3:25
The Torah refers to Parah Adumah as a "chok". But it calls it Chukas Hatorah. Why is that? The Torah is teaches us from here that everything is really a chok.

Jul 8, 2024

Jul 5, 2024

Korach was no dummy. He knew what he was doing. What could he have been thinking in the first place to get to such a lowly point?

Jun 28, 2024
3:26
What does one do if he’s not sure he’s a Jew? Does he keep shabbos? Can he keep shabbos? Wearing tzitzis slopped everything. Halachically and Hashkaficly.

Jun 26, 2024
4:33
Moshe Rabbeinu didn’t feel it was necessary to daven for Calev due to his illustrious wide. However, Calev himself, felt he needed to daven. He needed the Siyata Dishmaya.

Parshas Behaloscha - What The Mon Really Tasted Like
Jun 17, 2024
4:40
The Mon tasted like anything you wanted, expect for some items that were potentially harmful to a sect of people. We see from here that if you want something and don’t get it, it may be that it’s better to be that way..
