S5E11 V'Zot HaBracha 2023

Season 5 · Episode 11

Friday, October 6, 2023 • Duration 15:47

In the last parsha of the Torah, V'Zot HaBracha, Moshe dies. But what matters is not that he died- rather, the way he died. Moshe approached God alone. There were no adoring crowds. No family surrounding him. It was just the man and his Maker. And this is something that will happen to us all. We will all, ultimately, approach God. The question to be answered is simply this: have we lived a life that we are proud to show to God?

Before he dies, Moshe is called eved Hashem, servant of God. This is the highest compliment a mortal can receive. It means a person was successful in acting as a channel to bring God's presence to this world, and to perform God's will. As we end our series of podcasts here, my hope is that you too will aspire to be and ultimately become an eved Hashem. I hope you find God and cling to Him, and I hope He helps you when you struggle. It has been my pleasure to learn with you, and I hope you continue to learn as we begin the cycle of Torah reading again- with Bereishit.

S5E10 Haazinu 2023

Season 5 · Episode 10

Sunday, September 24, 2023 • Duration 14:49

This week's parsha, Haazinu, is actually a song! Moshe wanted to make sure that the core ideas of Judaism would be accessible to everyone, whether or not they were able to read. In this song, we focus on some important ideas. These include:

The heaven and earth are witnesses to this song, to demonstrate that it is timeless.
God has been involved with the Jews as His people throughout our history, and we owe Him our gratitude.
We will ultimately sin and betray God, and God will punish us.
There will come a time where God will redeem us, and we can always connect with Him again.

S5E9 Vayelech 2023

Season 5 · Episode 9

Friday, September 8, 2023 • Duration 04:20

In this week's parsha, Vayelech, we learn:

It was important to God that everyone attend Hakhel, the public Torah reading after every Shemitah cycle, including the little children. This memorable experience would bring them closer to Him.
Even when it seems like God is distant and hiding His face, He is still there. He never truly leaves us.
A good way to pass down important information and ideas is in song, which is why Moshe decided to write a song (which we will learn more about in next week's parsha.)

S5E8 Nitzavim 2023

Season 5 · Episode 8

Friday, September 8, 2023 • Duration 10:29

In Parshat Nitzavim, we learn that:

God made a covenant with every single one of us, even those of us who were not physically present when Moshe gave his last speech. We are all in a relationship with God.
The Torah is accessible. It is not far away- is is close to us. We can reclaim our portion.
Since God is our designer, He knows the best way for us to live. That's why, if we follow His commands, our lives will be meaningful (and hopefully filled with blessings.)

S5E7 Ki Tavo 2023

Season 5 · Episode 7

Friday, September 1, 2023 • Duration 17:12

In this week's parsha, Ki Tavo, we discover:

God's wisdom in making every single Jew a historian. We all recite a surprising paragraph when we bring up our first fruits- and it reminds us of what we have endured, what we have overcome, and how we will continue to overcome.
How important it is to look at the Torah as a gift from God. We are all in a relationship with God. The Torah is God's exact instructions regarding how to make Him happy and please Him. If we love God and appreciate the things He has done for us, then we will be elated to receive these instructions and to be able to live our lives in a way where we can show Him how much we value Him.
God is the master of experiential education. The blessings and curses at Mt Gerizim and Mt Aival showcase this- reminding us to consider the covenant we made with God, and why it matters.

S5E6 Ki Teitzei 2023

Season 5 · Episode 6

Friday, August 25, 2023 • Duration 15:43

In this week's parsha, Ki Teitzei, we explore laws that address human dignity and responsibility. These include, but are not limited to:

The law of a beautiful captive. A man must reflect before deciding to marry her, and once he does marry her, must treat her as a full-fledged wife.
The law of inheritance. One must give the double portion to the firstborn son, not the son of the wife one prefers.
The law of a hanged man. Since each human is created b'tzelem Elokim, we are obligated to bury this man before nightfall.
The law of the wayward son. From here we learn the importance of rebuke- it is a parent's job to try to prevent their child's behavior from escalating and getting worse over time.

The big ideas behind these laws still resonate today.

S5E5 Shoftim 2023

Season 5 · Episode 5

Friday, August 18, 2023 • Duration 22:42

In this week's parsha, Shoftim, we learn about the importance of leadership, government, and systems of checks and balances. Some of the important topics covered in this parsha include:

The three things a Jewish king is forbidden to do- he cannot have too many horses, too much gold and silver, or too many wives.
The laws of a Milchemet Mitzvah as opposed to a Milchemet Reshus, and how to save people from embarrassment.
The ceremony of the Eglah Arufah- where a calf is symbolically killed to demonstrate the waste of human life when someone is murdered, and to hopefully expose the murderer.

We are all governed by the same God, and must all follow His law.

S5E4 Re'eh 2023

Season 5 · Episode 4

Friday, August 11, 2023 • Duration 16:31

In this week's parsha, Re'eh, we learn some very important things. These include:

Idolatry is evil. It is compared to an illness, or a cancer, that must be eradicated so it will not harm or infect other areas of the body (or in this case, the nation).
It is important to have one place of centralized worship. This is what the Beit Hamikdash was, and it promoted unity.
False prophets may arise, but we should not trust what they say. If anyone tells us to go against God's laws in the Torah, we know they are not speaking truth.
Tzedaka is an extremely important mitzvah that focuses on tempering justice with compassion. It is a way of acknowledging any money we have comes from God, and learning to focus on others, not only ourselves.

S5E3 Ekev 2023

Season 5 · Episode 3

Friday, August 4, 2023 • Duration 14:32

In this week's parsha, Ekev, we learn not to discriminate between mitzvot that seem very important, like not killing, and those that seem less important, like keeping kosher. All mitzvot are important, whether we recognize it or not.

Additionally, we learn about Moshe's amazing leadership qualities, which featured perspective-taking, and the importance of cultivating a robust relationship with God. We need to remember to turn to God in times of distress and times of joy, and not to act like a fair-weather friend.

God loves us, and even when He gives us consequences, He does so in the hope that we can improve.

We conclude the parsha with a focus on those who are marginalized, such as the widow, orphan and stranger. God wants us to help these people, and not to forget that we too were once strangers in Egypt.

S5E2 V'eschanan 2023

Season 5 · Episode 2

Friday, July 28, 2023 • Duration 17:43

In this week's parsha, V'eschanan, we learn many beautiful concepts. These include:

Recognizing that sometimes God says no. God is not a vending machine. Our relationship with Him is not transactional. God said no to Moshe, and sometimes He says no to us. We need to learn how to carry on anyway.
Understanding that the mitzvot are the word of God and they cannot be tampered with. We cannot add to them or take away from them.
God loves us, and we can always come back to Him, even when we have thwarted His will or abandoned His law for a time.
One of the ways we show God we love Him is to bind his words upon our brows, have them spill from our lips, and share them with our children.
We are meant to be the people who show the way to others- especially the idolatrous nations, who practiced evil ways. For this, we need the courage of our beliefs.
