In this episode, we are learning about Parshat Balak! In it, Bilam says the famous line of mah tovu ohalecha Yaakov, mishkinotecha Yisrael, which Chazal say is the great blessing of having shuls and batei medrash.

In this episode, we are learning about Parshat Shelach! In it we have chet hameraglim, the tragic sin of the spies and their negative report about the Land of Israel. Very simply, what went wrong? What was Moshe actually thinking when he sent the spies? What were the spies thinking when they came back with their negative report? And how is that meant to shape how we see the Land and relate to wars with our enemies, like the one we are going through at this very moment? We’ll get into all that...

What is the meaning of this could? Why does it cover the Mishkan and why do we follow it? And what does that tell us about our inner Mishkan as we journey through the desert of our lives? We’ll get into all that and more in this week’s ...

The Midrash tells us to make sure to take the Omer seriously, and that by keeping it, we will merit to inherit Eretz Yisrael. What is so special about the mitzvah of Sefirat HaOmer that the Midrash puts it on such a pedestal? And why does it assume we would not have given it proper attention in the first place? We are going to get into one of the deep lessons of Sefirah i...

In this episode on the Pesach Haggadah we are going to discuss the arbah banim, the four sons or four children.

How can we understand them, empathize with them, and respond to them in a meaningful way to elevate their avodas&...

We'll get into all of that and much more in this episode! If you want to follow along in the text, it is Nesiovs Shalo...
In this episode we get into Pesach and the mitzvah of bedikas chametz, the days long search for chamtz in our homes. We put so much effort into searing every corner and crack of our house to make sure there isn't even a crumb of chametz on Pesach. In terms of our internal avodah, why is this so important to do? Why are we required to be so much more thorough when it comes to searching for chametz than almost any other mitzvah? And why do we need to go so far as to burn it afterwards? We'll ge...
In this episode we are going to get into Parshat Pekudei, the final Parsha in Sefer Shemot! After many weeks working to construct the Mishkan, Moshe finally put it up. But it takes seven days of him constructing it and breaking it down, multiple times per day, until God's presence finally rests on the Mishkan. What is the meaning of this process?
