A recording made after Shabbos of the past week's Drasha.
Most of what passes for entertainment today feels like it's been run through the same filter a hundred times. People are craving something real—something that reflects their own humor, struggles, and culture. When someone brings their full self to the mic or the screen, it has a way of cutting through the noise. Storytelling like that doesn't just entertain—it brings people in. Dave Behar, founder and CEO of Ion Network, has built a unique media platform combining sports, health, food, and entertainment. His network includes unconventional sports like pig and turtle racing, alongside traditional offerings. Dave, featured in Peak Performance Mindset Tools for Leaders and Peak Performance Mindset Tools for Entrepreneurs, discusses scaling his multi-platform network and creating engaging content. He emphasizes empowering content creators with robust digital infrastructure to drive success. Stay tuned! Resources: Ion Network Follow Dave Behar on Facebook Connect with Dave Behar on LinkedIn
The Book of Vayikra or Leviticus concludes with the two part torah parsha, "Behar," and "Bechukotai," (Leviticus chapters 25 through the end of the Book.) Covered first are the concepts of 'sabbath for the land,' and the "Jubilee" year, which Mark Call of Shabbat Shalom Mesa explains might be thought of as a big Reset button that has the effect of precluding a societal meltdown and depression otherwise. Mark Call of Shabbat Shalom Mesa fellowship and the Erev Shabbat reading: https://hebrewnationonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/SSM-5-23-25-Behar-Bechukotai-teaching-podcast-xxx.mp3 The Sabbath Day midrash begins with a bit more background on that Scriptural reset, and what happens when it does NOT. And even though much of the parsha is directed at what happens "in the [promised] land" - and we remain in exile, as also promised - there are indications that we are again on the precipice of the multiplied curses in the latter part of the parsha, that again seem so clearly apropos. Behar-Bechukotai: "The Big Reset Lever - and What Follows" https://hebrewnationonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/SSM-5-23-25-Behar-Bechukotai-THE-Big-Reset-Lever-and-what-follows-podcast-xxx.mp3 The combined two-part reading and Sabbath midrash:
Blessings From A to Z
1) With regard to the custom to leave a bit of the end of the Challah, does it apply only to the Lechem Mishneh, or to other bread too?[1]2) We use plastic tablecloths from a roll. If we didn't manage to prepare before Shabbos, may we tear off the roll on Shabbos?[2]3) I wish to begin Shmoine Esrei and there's someonebehind me who's already begun. May I take the three steps before my Shmoine Esrei?[3]4) May one make ‘no-bake cheesecake' on Shabbos?[4]5) Can I mix psyllium husk with water on Shabbos?[5] 6) I lent someone some money and he is not in a position to repay the loan. May I deduct the owed from my Maaser fund?[6]7) Is there an obligation to check Cashew-nuts for infestation? It is now years that I have not come across bugs in these nuts.[7]8) In order to fulfil the Mitzvah, the Esrog has toedible. Yet there is leeway – in Chutz lo'Oretz – with an Esrog that is Orloh:[8]9) Does Orloh apply to replanted saplings? [9]10) How should we pronounce the word ושדה in thisweek's Sedra?[10][1] של"ה,הובא במגן אברהם סי' קסז ס"ק מ"ב ובשוע"ר שם סכ"ב. מה שנוהגיםרבים שלא לאכול הקצה – בס' שמירת הגוף והנפש (סי' לא הע' ה) מביא מהיערות דבש(ח"ג) איך שהחיצונים נאחזים בראשית הדבר במיוחד. ומבואר בזה מה שמנשה הוכיחאת רב אשי בזה שאינו יודע על איזה חלק מהפת לומר ברכת המוציא (סנהדרין קב ב).[2] בס'שבת כהלכה ח"ד פכ"ח ספ"ב מתיר באינו מקפיד על המדה.[3] בפסקי תשובות סי' צה:ב אסרהדבר, כי הפסיעות אינן 'מצוה'. וכעין זה שם סי' קב:ד לענין הפסיעות שבגמרהתפלה.[4] אסור משום גיבול – ראהשוע"ר סי' שכא סט"ז.[5] בס' שמירתשבת כהלכתה (פ"ח אות ל) ובפסקי תשובות (סי' שכא אות כו) החמיר גם בבלילה רכה.[6] ברמ"איו"ד סי' רנז ס"ה מתיר הדבר. בש"ך שם מצריך להקנות הכסף לעניע"י שלישי. אבל הנודע ביהודה מקיל בנדו"ד, דמעשר-כספים הוי דרבנן.[7] ראהיו"ד סי' פד ס"ח שחיובהבדיקה הוא לדבר שדרכו להתליע.[8] שוע"ר סי' תרמטסט"ו, וכ"פ המשנ"ב שם ס"ק מה.[9] בשו"ע סי' רצדסט"ו מחמיר בעקר כל האילן, אבל שם סי"ט מקיל ביכול לחיות בעפר הנתלשאתו. וע"ש בפתחי תשובה ס"ק יג.[10] בתיקון סופריםברדיטשוב מבאר ביטויים שונים לשבא-נע.

The laws of the Torah - all 613 of them - were conveyed by God to Moshe at Mount Sinai. This is explicitly conveyed regarding the first Mitzvah featured in the first of our double Parsha, the Mitzvah of shemitah, to allow the land to lie fallow each 7th year. When we examine the subject further, we find all sorts of connections between shemitah and Sinai. In this sprawling podcast, we discover the secret of shemitah and the imperative to aspire to angelic greatness.– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –DONATE to TORCH: 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.

The book of Vayikra ends with hard warnings against Israel should they walk with God with indifference. He too will be indifferent to them and the world will feel as though it is turning on them. Subsequently there is an intriguing mitzvah presented that deals with what's called "Temura" or "exchange". Prohibiting one from attempting to exchange an animal that was given to God for an offering with a different animal whether it be better or worse. In this episode we examine the problem with that and how fear and the need for control underlies it, as well as why it is related to the issue of indifference.

In this shiur, delivered in Ba'er Miriam, Rav Burg explains why when we fail to return someone's greeting we are robbing them of their dignity and sending them on a downwards spiral.

Harav Eliyahu Hakkakian highlights a crucial theme of Sefer Vayikra – entitlement, and explains that when we understand that nothing is truly ours, we will be able to use it to its full potential.

Our Parsha contains some of the most difficult portions in the Torah, the Admonition. Our nation is told of the consequences of failing to adhere to the rules of God. The consequences are fierce and harsh. When this section is read in the synagogue, it is done quickly and in an undertone to prevent the congregation from lapsing into depression. But the Admonition ends on a comforting note: God promises to remember the covenant that He forged with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. Notwithstanding our intransigent behavior and our betrayal of God, He pledges to ensure that we endure come what may. This podcast orients around a fascinating peculiarity in this comforting note. We discover the unique role that Jacob plays in our history, the difference between his Jacob and Israel personas, and his connection with Elijah, the heralder of redemption.– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –DONATE to TORCH: 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.

BeHar: The Crown of Torah by Rabbi Avi Harari
Rabbi-Cantor Hillary Chorny's Shabbat Teaching at Temple Beth Am, Los Angeles, May 17, 2025. (Youtube)
Volume 27 Behar sicha 1
Syrian Poets and Vernacular Modernity (Edinburgh UP, 2025) examines a poetic movement that rose from under official state discourse in 1970s Syria Closely examines a wealth of unknown primary poetic texts from Syria that make up a new poetics which challenges received ideas about modern Arabic poetry Rereads along transnational lines the works of famous Arabo-Syrian poets such as Nizār Qabbānī and Muḥammad al-Māghūṭ Offers a substantial rethinking of key terms in comparative literary studies — translation, translatability, vernacular —as seen through the lens of everyday poetics Describes the institutional culture of poetry translations in Syria and analyses the modes of circulation by which translations pollinated original works Expands the scope of postcolonial poetry in the globalised age by factoring in relationships between first-, second-, and third-world literary cultures This book distinguishes a Syrian style of qaṣīdat nathr (prose poem) as a piece of collaborative performance called shafawiyya, vernacularised poetic speech. It describes the poetic lineages, stretching from early Syrian independence to the 21st century, whose task it was to bring poetic expression closer to everyday life. These poets are shown cultivating genres and translational practices rooted in a plebeian civilian identity that counters both heroised images of the prophet-poet and stern authoritarian rule. A comparative analysis is provided to understand shafawiyya poetics as a transnational mode of creative engagement. This analysis includes aesthetic affinities and instances of transmission between Arabic poetry and poetries written in formerly Soviet countries (Poland, Czechoslovakia, Romania, Bulgaria). From this vantage point, matters of perennial debate in comparative literature - vernacular, translatability, postcolonial poetry - are shown from a new perspective. The book closely examines a wealth of unknown primary poetic texts from Syria that make up the new poetics and challenge received ideas about modern Arabic poetry. It describes the institutional culture of poetry translations in Syria and analyses the modes of circulation by which translations pollinated original works. Behar rereads the works of famous Arabo-Syrian poets such as Nizār Qabbānī and Muḥammad al-Māghūṭ along transnational lines, offering a substantial rethinking of the key terms in comparative literary studies as seen through the lens of everyday poetics. Daniel Behar is Assistant Professor of Modern Arabic Literature in the Department of Arabic Language and Literature at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. He is interested in comparative analysis of modern Arabic poetry, theories of translation, and socialist literary imaginaries in Syria. Learn more about your ad choices.
