Toldos: How Different Were Yaakov and Eisav?
Saison 23 · Épisode 26
vendredi 21 novembre 2025 • Durée 16:59
Have any questions, insights, or feedback? Send me a text!
Length of article: 4 pages
Length of audio: 16 minutes 8 seconds
Synopsis: This is the audio version of the 4-page article I wrote and published on rabbischneeweiss.substack.com/ on 11/21/25 titled: Toldos: How Different Were Yaakov and Eisav? I was tempted to title this "When Teaching Rashi to Children Promotes Kefirah (Heresy)" but I decided that was too bold and relegated it to the subheading. Many thanks to Rabbi Pesach Sommer for providing me with the angle and structure of this article (and for granting me permission to quote his excellent Middle School dvar Torah).

Prologue of Sefer Iyov - Part 3: Methodology, Avoiding Heresy, and Preface to the Satan (1:6-12)
Saison 23 · Épisode 25
vendredi 14 novembre 2025 • Durée 01:27:53
Have any questions, insights, or feedback? Send me a text!
Length: 1 hour 27 minutes
Synopsis: This morning (11/14/25), in our Friday morning Machshavah Lab series for women, we continued learning through the prologue of Iyov (1:1 - 3:1). We began with a question of Iyov Methodology: Which commentaries would I recommend? This led to another important tangent (the second in three sessions!) about the ikkarim (fundamentals of Judaism). I'm particularly interested in what people think about what was said. We then read through Iyov 1:6-12 at a more leisurely pace than our quick overview last time, and we concluded by reading the Malbim's and Rambam's prefaces, explaining why I will NOT be decoding the allegory of the satan until a few months from now. The plan for next time is to go over the peshat of the remainder of the prologue, which we'll analyze in the session after that.

Length of the article: 2 pages
Length of the audio: 8 minutes 45 seconds
Synopsis: This is the audio version of the 2-page article I published on rabbischneeweiss.substack.com/ on 7/19/24 entitled: Balak: Blaming Sins on “Sin City.” When it comes to nature vs. nurture, we think of "nurture" in reference to people and one's surroundings. But what role is played by a person's name or place? Can a bad name cause a person to sin?

Synopsis: This is the audio version of the 2-page article I published on rabbischneeweiss.substack.com/ on 7/12/24 entitled: Chukas: How the Deaths of Tzadikim Atone. I was going to call this article, "How Miriam and Aharon Died for Our Sins," but I opted for the more generic NON-Jesusy title.

Shelach: Challah as a Consequence of the Cheit ha'Meraglim
Saison 17 · Épisode 1
jeudi 27 juin 2024 • Durée 04:51
Have any questions, insights, or feedback? Send me a text!
Length of the article: 1 page
Length of the audio: 4 minutes
Synopsis: This is the audio version of the 1-page article I originally published on rabbischneeweiss.substack.com/ on 6/24/22, which I've edited and republished on 6/27/24, entitled: Shelach: Challah as a Consequence of the Cheit ha'Meraglim. Why does the Torah introduce the mitzvah of separating challah after the account of the Sin of the Spies? What does one have to do with the other? Sforno and Ralbag provide an answer.
I hope to write a NEW article and publish it before Shabbos, but I decided to re-issue this one because I got off to a late start with my writing this week.

Q&A #40: Working Hours, Freud-Ego, Waving Leviim, Blind Obedience, Self-Help, Teaching, Archaeology
Saison 16 · Épisode 23
vendredi 21 juin 2024 • Durée 52:25
Have any questions, insights, or feedback? Send me a text!
Length: 52 minutes
Synopsis: This morning (6/21/24) we had a surprise Q&A as our last shiur in yeshiva of the 2023-2024 year! We took up seven questions: (1) How do we reconcile/account for the differences in the average working hours today vs. in the time of Chazal and the Rishonim, insofar as our learning is concerned? (2) What is meant by the term "ego"? (3) What's up with the waving of the Leviim in Behaalosecha? (4) What benefit is there to a person blindly obeying halacha, and how does "gadol metzuveh ve'oseh etc." fit in? (5) What role should self-help books play alongside the self-help aspects of our Torah learning? (6) What is the key to being a good teacher? (7) How do we handle archaeological findings which seem to undermine the Torah's historicity?
