Dr. Julian Ungar-Sargon shares Netziv commentaries on the parsha. These sessions are held on Zoom every week in memory of our mother in-law whose dedication to the Netziv (her great great grandfather), was legendary. It is estimated she studied the Ha'amek Davar some 78 times throughout her life, devoting every Tuesday to its study. May her memory be a blessing to her family and klal Yisroel.

Understanding how Hashem "operates" and conducts the world.

Activating Hashem's Kindness

If you've ever heard the words but missed the message, you already understand the core idea of Parshat Behar Bechukotai. We're closing Sefer Vayikra and pulling one powerful thread through everything: the Torah doesn't only ask us to listen, it asks us to listen in the voice. That single phrase, highlighted by the Netziv, becomes a life skill that changes how we learn, how we love, and how we grow.We start with the parsha landscape, Shemitah, Yovel, the blessings and the hard warnings, and the fascinating laws of erchin. Then we zoom in on “Im Bechukotai telechu” and ask what it really means to follow Hashem's path without turning religion into robotic box-checking. Using an everyday example (yes, even a “pick up bananas” request), we unpack subtext, tone, and context, and why deep listening is the difference between conflict and closeness.From there, we get practical. In marriage, we explore how empathy often matters more than advice, and how “fixing” can accidentally ignore what your spouse is truly saying. In chinuch and parenting, we look at the hidden reasons kids resist learning, like an Aramaic vocabulary gap that can make Gemara feel impossible. And in Avodat Hashem, we revisit Shemitah and Yovel as training in trust, renewal, discipline, and relationship, not just rules.If this gave you a new way to hear people and hear Torah, subscribe, share the episode with a friend, and leave a review that tells us where you're going to practice Shema beKolah this week.Support the showJoin The Motivation Congregation WhatsApp community for daily motivational Torah content!------------------Check out our other Torah Podcasts and content!SUBSCRIBE to The Motivation Congregation Podcast for daily motivational Mussar!Listen on Spotify or 24six!Find all Torah talks and listen to featured episodes on our website, themotivationcongregation.orgQuestions or Comments?

Rabbi Gestetner. Parshas Behar - Bechukosai (5786). Seeing is healing by Mayanot

I don't know many farmers. This country used to be an agrarian society, but today fewer than 2% of Americans are farmers. This was not the case in antiquity.

I don't know many farmers. This country used to be an agrarian society, but today fewer than 2% of Americans are farmers. This was not the case in antiquity. In antiquity, making a living effectively meant growing crops. The Almighty makes seemingly unreasonable demands of us when it asks us to cease working the field each seventh year -- the Shemittah. Moreover, every 50th year - a year that follows a Shemittah - we are commanded to refrain from working the field for a second year in a row. What is the rationale for this mitzvah? How is this mitzvah intimately connected to the central revelation? In general, what is the secret of the seven? You will find answers to these questions and many more in this edition of the Parsha Podcast. You will also find the remedy for feelings of inadequacy. In short, this podcast is worth your time.– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –DONATE: Please consider supporting the podcasts by making a donation to help fund our Jewish outreach and educational efforts at https://www.torchweb.org/support.php.

Parshas Behar & Bechukosai: You Are Worthy What if the greatest barrier to blessing is not doubt in G-d, but doubt in ourselves? This week's Parsha explores Shemitah, Yovel, blessing, exile, and the unbreakable covenant between G-d and the Jewish people. Through the insight of Rabbeinu Bachya and the Netziv, we uncover a powerful truth: sometimes the struggle is not believing G-d can provide, but believing we are worthy enough to receive. As Lag B'Omer's light continues to shine, this episode explores faith, self-worth, resilience, and the courage to embrace the blessings already waiting for us. ✨ The moment we believe we are worthy, we begin living differently.

In this Parsha Review Podcast episode on the double portion Behar-Bechukotai, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe explores the profound lessons of the Sabbatical year (Shemitah) and Jubilee (Yovel). The Torah commands a complete year off from agricultural work every seven years, requiring total trust (bitachon) in Hashem, who promises miraculous provision through a triple blessing in the sixth year. This highlights divine authorship of the Torah, as no human could guarantee such future-oriented miracles. The Jubilee further resets land ownership, returning properties to original tribal families.Rabbi Wolbe emphasizes the Torah's prohibition against verbal pain (ona'as devarim) — even a hurtful remark violates a biblical command — and connects it to fearing Hashem and observing His laws for secure dwelling in the Land. He addresses the reasons for exile, reconciling Shemitah neglect with broader commandment violations through the Talmudic teaching that the Torah was given not to perfect angels but to imperfect humans facing real challenges.The episode culminates in a powerful call to productive toil: just as the ant never stops working, we must channel our labor toward spiritual growth during Shemitah (toiling in Torah), maintain life balance, avoid time-wasters like addictive social media, and emulate disciplined productivity. True success comes from trusting Hashem, recalibrating values, and producing rather than merely consuming._____________This episode of the Parsha Review Podcast is dedicated in honor of Lenny & Teresa FriedmanDownload & Print the Parsha Review Notes:https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1ncaRyoH5iJmGGoMZs9y82Hz2ofViVouv?usp=sharingRecorded at TORCH Meyerland in the Levin Family Studios (B) to a live audience on May 5, 2026, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on May 7, 2026_____________Subscribe: Apple Podcasts (https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/parsha-review-podcast-rabbi-aryeh-wolbe/id1651930083)Spotify (https://open.spotify.com/show/22lv1kXJob5ZNLaAl6CHTQ) to stay inspired! Share your questions at awolbe@torchweb.org or visit torchweb.org for more Torah content.  _____________About the Host:Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe, Director of TORCH in Houston, brings decades of Torah scholarship to guide listeners in applying Jewish wisdom to daily life.  To directly send your questions, comments, and feedback: awolbe@torchweb.org_____________Support Our Mission:Help us share Jewish wisdom globally by sponsoring an episode at torchweb.org.

he promise of the Mishkan end with: “I will not be disgusted by you”?Why introduce rejection in the middle of love?Most human dysfunction begins with one fear:“If you really knew me, you would leave.”In this shiur, delivered in Tomer Devorah, Rav Burg explores: • the psychology of shame • why human beings hide • the fear beneath perfectionism, defensiveness, people-pleasing, anger, addiction, and withdrawal • the Gottman Institute's concept of contempt as the destroyer of attachment • Adam HaRishon's first reaction to sin: hiding • and the radically different relationship Hashem offers humanity:“I already see everything and I am still here.”The Mishkan is not merely a place where Hashem dwells. It is the destruction of shame itself.

Shiur given by Rabbi Shmuel Freedland on Parsha. Shiur recorded at the Night Kollel at Betchuch in Forshay.

Harav Noach Shafran shares a chiddush from Rabbi Akiva Eiger on dinei rov by maaser beheima and explores the unique role of Torah in bringing a person closer to Hakodosh Baruch Hu.

Chof Iyar (24:47)

At the end of the Tochacha, Rashi makes a mysterious comment: Yaakov Avinu “took” the letter Vav from Eliyahu HaNavi as collateral to guarantee that Eliyahu will one day come announce the Geulah. But what does it mean to take a letter as security? And why specifically the letter Vav?In this shiur, delivered in Ba'er Miriam, Rav Burg explores the deeper meaning of the letter Vav as the symbol of connection, integration, and wholeness. The deepest pain of Galus is not merely suffering, it is fragmentation. The splitting of mind and heart. The loss of inner continuity. The feeling that life is random, disconnected, and broken apart.Through the lens of Torah, psychology, trauma, and the teachings of the Maharal, we learn how Yaakov Avinu became the embodiment of integration, the bridge between heaven and earth, spiritual and physical, pain and hope. Yaakov is the human “ו”: the one who holds contradictions together without falling apart.This is a journey into the psychology of exile, the nature of trauma, the meaning of hope, and the true definition of redemption—not the removal of suffering, but the revelation that every fragment was always part of one larger story. Eliyahu HaNavi's mission is to reveal the unity hidden within the chaos and reconnect a fragmented world back to its Source.

Parshas Bechukosai contains a rebuke of seemingly harsh curses which are actually the loftiest Divine blessings in a hidden form; similarly, Rabbi Shimon bar Yochai, whose yahrzeit is Lag B'Omer, possesses the unique power through the inner dimension of Torah to decode this reality and reveal that hidden good as tangible, physical blessings in this world.
