The Koach of the Torah and Tefillah of Klal Yisroel (Chukas 5785)

The Henry and Lisa Manoucheri Parsha Shiur

A recording made after Shabbos of the past weeks Drasha.

Batya 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.

Revealing the secrets of the mysterious parah adumah.

Whose Power is it Really

זֹאת חֻקַּת הַתּוֹרָה אֲשֶׁר־צִוָּה ה' לֵאמֹר דַּבֵּר  אֶל־בְּנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל וְיִקְחוּ אֵלֶיךָ פָרָה אֲדֻמָּה תְּמִימָה אֲשֶׁר אֵין־בָּהּ מוּם אֲשֶׁר לֹא־עָלָה עָלֶיהָ עֹל׃  This is the ritual law that Hashem has commanded: Instruct the Israelite people to bring you a red cow without blemish, in which there is no defect and on which no yoke has been laid.

Shiur given by Rabbi Ben Zion Bamberger on Parsha.

This episode discusses when you are required to stand during the Birchos Hashachar.

This episode discusses the reason why Aharon Hakohen passed away before Moshe in this parshah.

​1)    The Shai laMora Sidur writes that in an early print of the AR's Sidur (Berditshev 5578), the word Shabbos in the Amidah and Kiddush is vowelized with a Komatz: Shabbos Kodshecho. This seems more accurate than the nikud in most Sidurim: Shabbas Kodshecho. Comment?[1]2)    I need to buy a new Tallis. Is there any difference whether I buy from a local supplier or I buy online from overseas?[2]3)    May we celebrate a Siyum Sefer Torah during the Three Weeks?[3]4)    We are taught that Malochim can't handle prayers in Aramaic, but this isn't a concern when there's a Tzibur. Why is the 1st יקום פורקן said even without a Minyan?[4]5)    Between early Maariv with a minyan or on time alone, how should I choose?[5]6)    An outside group rents a room in our premises to hold meetings each Shabbos. How do I avoid their payment being Schar Shabbos?[6]7)    On Shabbos, may I dip in a pool (for Mikveh) wearing swimming trunks? [7]8)    In the context of Heter Iska, is it permissible to commit tomonthly payments?[8]9)    Feedback re. a lender suggesting to his borrower to contribute to the Charidy appeal of the lender's son: [9]10)  Feedback re. shorter bentsching for those who struggle with the full version:[10][1]  הניקוד בפתח הוא כבנחמי' ט, יד. אבל אין הפירוש "שבת שלהקודש", אלא תיבת "קדשך" היא תואר של השבת. כמו "חצרותקדשך" = "החצרות הקדושות". וכ"כ המו"ל במילואיםלסדור ר"ש סופר (ע' קעט,  מילואים לע' 291) עפ"ד הרד"ק בס'המכלול (ליק פח, ב) על סגנון לה"ק שלפעמים תבוא תיבת השימוש שלא על הסדר.[בזה מובן הקמץ של "שבתות קדשך" במנחת שבת].

When the nation needed water, they found it in a most unexpected place: Moshe struck a rock and it began to spew forth enough water for the entire nation. Why was there water inside the rock?

When the nation needed water, they found it in a most unexpected place: Moshe struck a rock and it began to spew forth enough water for the entire nation. Why was there water inside the rock? Why when Jacob needed water, he removed the rock blockading it? Why didn't he find water inside the rock too? Water and rocks are often connected, but sometimes the water is found beyond the rock and other times the water is embedded inside the flinty stone. This distinction reveals the two different ways to contend with adversity. When we examine the opening subject of our Parsha, the strange protocol of the red heifer, we see a pattern of the multiple methods of transformation.– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –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 Chukas: Our Story, Continued Our Parsha begins with the mysterious laws of the Parah Adumah and journeys through profound moments of loss, leadership, and legacy. From the death of Miriam to Moshe's request for safe passage through Edom, the Torah weaves a story not just of history—but of soul.  This is our story. One of pain and promise, of exile and return. And when we carry each other, even from afar, we step into something eternal.

In this episode of the Parsha Review Podcast, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe discusses Parshas Chukas, focusing on the red heifer (Parah Adumah) and its designation as "Zos Chukas HaTorah" (the decree of the Torah), highlighting its mysterious, reasonless nature as a divine command. He explains that mitzvahs, like honoring parents, don't require full understanding to be fulfilled, using the red heifer as an example of submitting to God's will, as even King Solomon couldn't grasp its purpose. Rabbi Wolbe emphasizes that Torah study and mitzvah observance deepen with each repetition, elevating one's connection, as seen in practices like Shabbos candle lighting or kosher laws, encouraging listeners to invest in spiritual growth for eternal rewards in the world to come.The episode also addresses the Jewish people's complaints in the desert despite miraculous provisions like manna and Miriam's spring, illustrating how habit can numb appreciation for miracles. Rabbi Wolbe urges breaking this cycle of routine to maintain awe for daily blessings, like the body's functions or modern technology, and to approach relationships and mitzvahs with renewed passion. He concludes by discussing the brief eulogies for Miriam, Aaron, and Moshe, noting that their concise mention as servants of God reflects their selflessness and the Torah's focus on the eternal world, not temporary worldly achievements, reinforcing the need to prioritize spiritual investment over materialism._____________This episode (Ep 7.36) of the Parsha Review Podcast by Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe on Parshas Chukas is dedicated in honor of our Holy Soldiers in the Battlefield and our Torah Scholars in the Study Halls who are fighting for the safety of our nation!Download & Print the Parsha Review Notes:https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1ncaRyoH5iJmGGoMZs9y82Hz2ofViVouv?usp=sharingRecorded at TORCH Studios (C) to an online TORCHzoom.com audience on July 1, 2025, in Passaic, New Jersey.Released as Podcast on July 3, 2025_____________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.

Hi,Chazal note the contrast between the way the people mourned for Aharon, and the way they mourned for Moshe. The main reason given is that Aharon made peace between people in dispute. What does this teach us about the different roles of Moshe and Aharon, and what can we learn from both?Have a good Shabbos

The Psychology Behind the Parsha 

Harav Yissocher Frand explains why Bnei Yisrael rejected the mon, and that their punishment—snakes—symbolized the danger of wanting independence from Hashem.

In the first of this week's double parsha, we read about the death of two giants: Miriam and Aaron, Moshe's older sister and brother, pass away.

In Parshas Chukas we read about the death of two giants: Miriam and Aaron, Moshe's older sister and brother, pass away. Our sages tell us that the death of the righteous serves as an atonement in a way similar to sacrifices. Just as sacrifices atone, so too does the death of the righteous. But why does the death of the righteous provide atonement? Why is the sacrifice used to convey this principle specifically the red heifer, the most unusual of sacrifices? In this delectable Parsha podcast, we discover critical elements, growth, change, and transformation.– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –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.

Rabbi Jacobson will discuss the following topics:Gimmel Tammuz How can we describe and explain this day? How do we honor this day? Why do we say that the presence of a tzaddik is stronger after they pass away?  What was the Rebbe's last major teaching before Chof Zayin Adar and Gimmel Tammuz? What maamar of the Rebbe would you recommend we study on this day? How is Gimmel Tammuz this year, 31 years later, different from previous years? Are there guidelines on how to pray at the Ohel to realize the best results? Why do some people see their prayers fulfilled more than others? Is there a connection between Korach challenging Moshe's leadership and Gimmel Tammuz? Is there a connection with the theme of Parshas Chukas, about purification from the toxins of death? What can we do to not feel depressed and threatened by today's world events? What did the Rebbe say about wars waged in Persia? Can we say that the Rebbe is Moshiach after Gimmel Tammuz? Will everyone in the world immediately know that Moshiach has arrived? Is this a positive thing? What would the Rebbe say? Is there a connection between Khamenei and Haman? Did the Rebbe say that one way to defeat irrational hatred is by increasing in irrational love? What is the connection between suprarational laws and engraved letters – both interpretations of the word Chukas? What can we learn from the story of Moshe hitting the rock instead of speaking to it? What would the Rebbe advise?  Should we move out of New York?How will those sensitive to heat move to Israel?Ceasefire between Israel and Iran Chukas How should we react to the nomination of an anti-Israel NY Mayoral candidate? What lessons can we learn from the recent heat wave?
