A Biyaler Entry Into the Machzor

Épisode 33

jeudi 10 septembre 2026 • Durée 45:24

What am I actually supposed to be davening for on Rosh Hashanah?

We know the language. Malchut Hashem. Kavod Shamayim. We stand before the King and ask that His presence fill the world.

But then we open the machzor—and we're asking for life. For parnasah. For our children. For our families. For all the things we so desperately need.

So which one is it?

In this Rosh Hashanah shiur, given shortly after the passing of the Biala Rebbe of Givat Shaul, Rav Shlomo Katz and the women of Shirat David enter the machzor through a Torah Rav Shlomo received from the world of Biala—and through memories of a Rebbe whose words took him nearly 25 years to understand.

At the center is one extraordinary line:

כלום חסר בבית המלך — Nothing is lacking in the house of the King.

The avodah of Rosh Hashanah isn't to pretend we don't have personal needs. It's to ask a deeper question about those needs: Why do I want what I want?

The Rosh Hashanah Secret Hidden in the Shofar's Narrow End

Épisode 32

mercredi 9 septembre 2026 • Durée 45:45

We spend so much of our lives trying.

We work on our marriages. We work on our children. We work on our parnasah, our Torah, ourselves. And because Hashem created us adam la'amal yulad—born to work—that yegiah isn't something we're supposed to escape.

But then comes the danger.

When something finally works, it's very easy to look back at everything we did and think: I did this.

In this Rosh Hashanah shiur, Rav Shlomo Katz and the chevra of Shirat David continue an extraordinary teaching from the Tolna Rebbe about the ba'al tokeia who simply could not get a sound out of the shofar. From the building of the Mishkan and Beit Hamikdash to Moshe Rabbeinu forgetting everything he learned on Har Sinai, we discover a pattern that runs through Torah: techilah hishtadlut, sofo matanah. First comes our effort. In the end, it's a gift.

And that changes how we understand the shofar itself.

We blow from the narrow end—min hameitzar karati Kah—and somehow an enormous sound emerges from the other side. The more we toil, the more we're able to recognize and actually taste the miracle when it comes.

Maybe that's part of what it means to crown Hashem on Rosh Hashanah: not waiting until life pushes us into the narrowest place to realize that everything we have was a gift all along.

The Rosh Hashanah Secret to Making Miracles Happen

Épisode 31

lundi 7 septembre 2026 • Durée 45:49

Why does Hashem make us work so hard for something that, in the end, only He can make happen?

In this Rosh Hashanah shiur, Rav Shlomo Katz and the chevra of Shirat David learn an extraordinary teaching from the Tolna Rebbe that begins with an almost unbelievable halacha: what happens when the ba'al tokeia simply cannot get a sound out of the shofar?

From there, we enter into the deeper meaning of Vihi Noam, the miraculous building of the Mishkan and Beis Hamikdash, and the Menorah that Moshe Rabbeinu could not make no matter how hard he tried.

And that's where this becomes about our lives.

There are things we want so badly. Things we work for, daven for, fight for. And sometimes we wonder: if ultimately everything is in Hashem's hands, why am I being asked to work so hard?

The answer lies in one tiny letter—the yud separating ta'aseh from tei'aseh.

We have to do everything we can. Empty the tank. Exhaust what we believe is possible. And then discover that the greatest things in our lives were never ours to accomplish alone.

That's one of the deepest preparations for Rosh Hashanah: our job is to give Hashem everything we've got. The miracle was never our job.

But My Love For You Will Not End

Épisode 30

vendredi 4 septembre 2026 • Durée 36:45

What does it mean to enter into a bris with Hashem?

On the final Shabbos of the year, Parshas Nitzavim gives us the hachana for Rosh Hashanah: אתם נצבים היום כולכם. Stand up. Stand together. Not because we're all the same. Not because we even understand one another. But because every Jew has something that completes another Jew.

And then the Torah tells us why we're standing there: לעברך בברית ה׳ אלקיך. To enter into a covenant with Hashem.

A bris, the Rebbe teaches, is what two people establish when their love is strong so that the relationship will remain even when there are reasons for it not to. It's a love l'ma'alah mita'am vada'as—beyond logic and reason.

It's the deepest thing we're longing to hear from Hashem on Rosh Hashanah, and the deepest thing we want to be able to say back:

My love for You will not end.

Rav Shlomo Katz and the chevra of Shirat David learn how Elul clears away everything that has covered over that love, why our relationship with other Jews is part of the covenant itself, and how standing together can awaken a sweetness from Hashem that goes beyond what any of us deserve.

The Ba’al Shem Tov’s Secret to Entering Rosh Hashanah

Épisode 29

mercredi 2 septembre 2026 • Durée 41:53

What happens when Elul doesn't go the way we planned?

We enter the month with plans, kabbalos, hopes for who we're going to become. Then suddenly, Selichos is almost here. Rosh Hashanah is around the corner. And somehow, we're still us.

In this shiur, Rav Shlomo Katz and the chevra of Shirat David return to a mashal from the Ba’al Shem Tov about a fox, a group of animals, and their journey to face the lion they had rebelled against. The fox begins the journey armed with hundreds of brilliant parables to appease the king. But the closer he gets, the more he forgets, until finally, standing before the king, he has nothing left.

And that may be exactly the point.

What Hashem wants from us isn't another story about who we thought we'd become. It's for us to come. To show up honestly. To keep trying, to take on what we can, but ultimately to stand before the King without pretending that we've earned anything.

What Does G-d Think of Me? | Rosh Hashana Prep with the Tolna Rebbe (2)

Épisode 27

mercredi 10 septembre 2025 • Durée 47:52

In this Elul shiur, Rav Shlomo Katz and the chevra of Shirat David continue the Tolna Rebbe’s Torah, asking the most vulnerable question: “What does Hashem really think of me?”

Through the pasuk “לא הביט און ביעקב ולא ראה עמל בישראל, ה׳ אלקיו עמו ותרועת מלך בו” we uncover a breathtaking teaching: when a Jew is מואס ברע—disgusted by the bad even if he still stumbles—and cultivates חיבוב מצווה, Hashem doesn’t fix His gaze on the fall. Instead, He sees the yearning, the effort, and the love.

The Rebbe reads the halacha of בעליו עמו לא ישלם as a key to teshuvah: when the Master is “with you,” even your failures don’t define you. What matters most is whether your heart wants to be on the path of טוב, and whether mitzvot excite you enough to awaken the friendship of the King—ותרועת מלך בו.

What you’ll hear:

Why the Satan “gives up” when he sees our love of mitzvos
How disgust at רע can actually be a sign of deep health
Why חיבוב מצווה brings reward even in this world
Entering Rosh Hashanah not with self-beating, but with holy anticipation

Confusing the Satan | Rosh Hashana Prep with the Tolna Rebbe (1)

Épisode 26

mercredi 3 septembre 2025 • Durée 54:41

In this Elul shiur Rav Shlomo Katz and the chevra of Shirat David begin a sweet journey into the Tolna Rebbe’s Torah on “לערבב את השטן – confusing the Satan.”

Why do we blow shofar both “מיושב” and “מעומד”? What actually silences the מקטרג on Rosh Hashanah?

Through Rashi and the Pnei Yeshua we discover a radical key: חיבוב מצווה—genuine love and longing for mitzvot—pushes us from teshuvah mi’yirah into teshuvah me’ahavah, where “זדונות נעשים לו כזכויות.” We also learn the Tolna Rebbe’s powerful reading of “יתיצב על דרך לא טוב, רע לא ימאס”: it’s not only what you do; it’s what you tolerate. Elul is not just סור מרע; it’s training the heart for עשה טוב, building holy anticipation and preparation so we can truly stand on a good path.

What you’ll hear:

Why liking a mitzvah may matter even more than merely doing it
How love-driven teshuvah flips debts into credits
“Live and let live” vs. מואס ברע—why tolerance of רע is spiritually dangerous
The art of הכנה: turning Elul into daily training for תקיעת שופר
Dropping “pins” on moments of קדושה, so getting back up is faster

Hashem Takes You as Seriously as You Take Yourself - Rosh Hashana

Épisode 25

jeudi 3 juillet 2025 • Durée 01:10:33

What if the key to Rosh Hashana isn't about being perfect — but about being real?

In this deeply moving pre-Rosh Hashana shiur, Rav Shlomo Katz shares personal stories, Chassidic insights, and the soul of what it means to crown Hashem as King — not just in the world, but in your life. From a missed moment at Madison Square Garden to the power of not laughing at your own spiritual yearning, this shiur cuts through the noise and gets to the heart of malchut.

With teachings from the Piaseczner Rebbe, Rav Moshe Weinberger, and a powerful story from the Gerrer Rebbe, Rav Shlomo reminds us: Hashem takes you as seriously as you take yourself.

If you've ever struggled with cynicism, felt disconnected from the Yomim Noraim, or wondered how to begin again… this is for you.

Rebbe Nachman’s Emphasis on Rosh Hashana

Épisode 24

jeudi 3 juillet 2025 • Durée 32:58

Rav Shlomo Katz explores Rebbe Nachman of Breslov’s profound connection to Rosh Hashana—and why this day is considered the “head” of the entire year. Through moving insights, personal stories, and deep Torah, we’re guided into a mindset of renewal, clarity, and preparation for the new year.

Why did Rebbe Nachman say, “My whole thing is Rosh Hashana”? Why are thousands willing to risk so much just to be in Uman during this time? And more personally: what spiritual “baggage” are we still holding on to that we shouldn’t carry with us into a new year?

As the world around us feels increasingly chaotic, this is our opportunity to clear space in the mind, release old weight, and open the gates to a sweet, clear, and connected year ahead.
