How can Torah help you improve your self-control? With the help of Menahem Mendel Lefin's Cheshbon haNefesh, an important 19th-century work on character refinement, we delve into the weekly Torah portion to seek wisdom on refining our traits and mastering our moods and emotions. Listen in as Modya Silver, a psychotherapist and author, and David Gottlieb, a scholar of Jewish history and a teacher of Jewish contemplative practice, uncover the ethical wisdom contained in each weekly reading.

The Idea of "Truth" in Re'eh
Épisode 46
jeudi 29 août 2024 • Durée 39:12
In this week's episode, Modya and David discuss parshat Re'eh (Deut. 11:26-16:17) through the lens of Emet (Truth). Among other directives, Moses directs the people to choose between blessing and curse, and to adhere to the laws he has imparted throughout the course of the Israelite journey in the wilderness. Modya and David explore the sometimes stark binary between truth and falsehood that Moses depicts. They seek to derive lessons on the consequences of deception of self and other, and on cultivating a personal path of truth. We hope you enjoy!

"Truth" in Eikev
Épisode 45
jeudi 22 août 2024 • Durée 42:35
This week, Modya and David look at the weekly Torah portion through a new lens -- that of Truth. They explore whether there is absolute truth, and when and if to be truthful in thought, speech, and action. They explore how Moses changes some of the narrative of the past 40 years, and what that means for both the speaker (Moses) and the listener (ourselves).

The Trait of "Diligence" in B'ha'alotkha
Épisode 36
jeudi 20 juin 2024 • Durée 51:50
Today, Modya and David welcome Mindy Shapiro, a Philadelphia-based student and teacher of Mussar and an artist*, to discuss parshat B'ha'alotkha (Num. 8:1-12:16) through the lens of Zerizut, or diligence. Central questions explored in conversation: How do we bring the rebellious aspects of our natures into alignment with our higher purpose? How can we see our own "desert wanderings" as part of a meaningful experience? And how can we identify and address our fear of not being seen, and what that fear causes us to do? We hope you enjoy! *Mindy's work can be seen here.

On "Diligence" (zerizut) in Naso
Épisode 35
jeudi 13 juin 2024 • Durée 41:08
This week, Modya and David dive into parshat Naso (Num. 4:21-7:89), the longest portion in the entire Torah -- 70 verses of which are identical! This parshah also features the Priestly Blessing (Num. 6:24-26), the laws of Sotah (Num. 5:1-31), and a host of lessons on the middah of Zerizut, or Diligence, for individuals and communities, in relation to each other and to God. We hope you enjoy!

What is Your Mission?
Épisode 34
jeudi 6 juin 2024 • Durée 42:52
What sort of people do you surround yourself with? And what is your mission in life? How best to marshal all aspects of your personality, and your community, in order to pursue it? And, on another note: what explains the Jewish aversion to being counted?These are just some of the questions Modya and David explore in this week's episode, in which they look at parshat Bamidbar (Num. 1:1-4:20). We hope you enjoy!

On "Diligence" (zerizut) in Bechukotai
Épisode 33
jeudi 30 mai 2024 • Durée 37:01
On this week's episode, Modya and David switch lenses to the trait of Zerizut, or Diligence, and use that as a lens through which to explore parshat Bechukotai, the final Torah portion in the Book of Leviticus (26:3-27:24). In this portion, God delineates the good that will come of following divine laws and commandments -- and the ills that will befall Israel if they turn away. The hosts explore how diligence in following divine will can keep our selves, our communities, and our world in balance. We hope you enjoy!

The Trait of "Frugality" in Behar
Épisode 32
jeudi 23 mai 2024 • Durée 31:50
This week David and Modya complete their investigation of frugality looking at the parsha of Behar. We see how the lens is widened to include not only the self and community but also our orientation to the land and ultimately the Divine. In an agrarian culture, land represented economy and so the focus on letting the land lay fallow (shemitah and yoval) equated to frugality with finances.

On "Frugality" (kimutz) in Emor
Épisode 31
jeudi 16 mai 2024 • Durée 31:16
In parsha Emor (Leviticus 21:1-24:23), David and Modya continue to explore "frugality." They look at it being part of a continuum of holiness and see how frugality in action needs to match an inner authentic orientation.

On "Frugality" (kimutz) in Kedoshim
Épisode 30
jeudi 9 mai 2024 • Durée 25:13
Modya and David focus again this week on kimutz, or frugality, through the lens of the week's Torah portion, Kedoshim (Lev: 19:1-20:27). The central question: what do the priestly and ethical laws teach us about stewardship of our resources, both as individuals and as members of a community living in a covenanted relationship to each other and to God? We hope you enjoy!

On "Frugality" in Acharei Mot
Épisode 29
jeudi 2 mai 2024 • Durée 29:41
Modya and David begin this week a focus on the trait of frugality, the careful shepherding of one's resources, monetary and otherwise. The Torah portion under consideration is Acharei Mot (Leviticus 16:1-18:30). Modya and David explore how the careful allocation and conservation of resources can help to create a balance between the divine and animal energies which comprise the human being and human societies. The rite of the scapegoat is also discussed as a way to recognize, honor, and maintain the balance between these energies. Thanks for listening!
