התוכן במזמור ע"ח שבתהילים מצינו דבר פלא לכאו': התחלת המזמור (שמורה על תכליתו) הוא "האזינה עמי תורתי", וכמ"ש בהמשך המזמור גודל ההכרח בלימוד התורה ובקיום המצוות "ויקם עדות ביעקב ותורה שם בישראל" וכו', אבל בהמשך המזמור מקשר כ"ז בסיפור באריכות ובפרטיות אודות "נפלאותיו אשר עשה" בארץ מצרים, והמכות וכו'! עד שכו"כ ענינים שאומרים בהגדה בליל הסדר לומדים מפסוקים אלו שבמזמור זה. ובזה מודגש אפי' בתושב"כ גודל הענין דסיפור נפלאות יצ"מ, ע"י אמירת מזמור תהלים זה, עד שזהו "יסוד ועמוד חזק בתורתנו ובאמונתנו", שבזה קשור כל ענין שבתורה – "ויקם עדות ביעקב וגו'", ועד שבזה תלוי' הגאולה האמיתית והשלימה! כמ"ש בהמשך המזמור. ומזה עידוד לקיום הוראת כ"ק מו"ח אדמו"ר בנוגע לאמירת תהילים בכלל, וגודל הענין דאמירת תהלים ע"י היהודים הפשוטים, ה"תהילים אידן", או ע"י כו"כ מנשי ישראל המצטיינות באמירת תהילים (ודוד המלך ביקש ופעל שאמירת תהילים תפעל אותו דבר מה שנפעל ע"י לימוד נגעים ואהלות).ב' חלקים משיחת אור לי"ג ניסן ה'תשל"ט ל"הנחה פרטית" או התרגום ללה"ק של השיחה: https://thedailysicha.com/?date=06-11-2025 Synopsis We find a seemingly wondrous thing in chapter 78 of Tehillim: The beginning of the chapter (which indicates its underlying theme and purpose) states, “Listen, my people, to my Torah,” and in that vein it goes on to discuss the importance of studying Torah and keeping mitzvos, “He established a testimony in Yaakov and He set down a Torah in Yisroel” etc. But then it ties this to a detailed account of “His wonders which He performed” in the land of Egypt, such that many passages in the Haggadah are derived from the verses in this chapter of Tehillim. Thus, even in the Written Torah we find an emphasis on the importance of telling the story of the wonders of the Exodus from Egypt, which is “a foundation and strong pillar in our Torah and of our faith,” which even the Redemption depends on, as it says later in the chapter. This also encourages us to fulfill the directive of my father-in-law, the Rebbe, about saying of Tehillim in general, and the significance of the Tehillim recited by the “Tehillim Yidden” and by Jewish women etc. (and Dovid HaMelech requested and brought about that saying Tehillim should have the same effect as studying even the deepest parts of Torah).2 excerpts from sichah of 13 Nissan 5739 For a transcript in English of the Sicha: https://thedailysicha.com/?date=06-11-2025

התוכן האושפיזין העיקריים דיום הושענא רבה הם דוד המלך ואדמו"ר מהורש"ב נ"ע. הקשר ביניהם: ידועה שיחת אדמו"ר (מהורש"ב) נ"ע בקשר להתייסדות ישיבת תומכי תמימים בענין "כל היוצא למלחמת בית דוד כותב גט כריתות לאשתו", שתכלית ומטרת התייסדות הישיבה היא להעמיד חיילי בית דוד שיהיו "נרות להאיר" בכל העולם כולו ויצאו ל"מלחמת בית דוד" וילחמו נגד אלו "אשר חרפו אויבך ה'", וגם נגד אלו "אשר חרפו עקבות משיחך", דוד מלכא משיחא, שלא רוצים שיצעקו "משיח נאו!". ומכיון ש"דברי צדיקים קיימים לעד", שהדברים עצמם הם באופן של "פעולה נמשכת", מובן, שההוראה ד"כל היוצא למלחמת בית דוד וכו'" היא בתקפה גם בימים אלה. כדי לפעול ביאת המשיח בגלוי ה"ז ע"י לימוד פנימיות ונגלה דתורה (שזהו עיקר חידושו של ישיבת תו"ת – חיבור נגלה ופנימיות התורה באופן שנעשים "תורה אחת"). ויש להשפיע על כל יהודי שיהי' בכלל אלו היוצאים ל"מלחמת בית דוד", ע"י ש"כותב גט כריתות" לעניני הגוף וגשמיות, ובודאי שיצליח במלחמה זו וחוזר לביתו בשלום – שלם בגופו, בנפשו ואפי' בממונו. וזהו הקשר לשישי דפ' וזאת הברכה שמתחיל עם "מעונה אלקי קדם ומתחת זרועות עולם", ומפרש רש"י "מתחת מעונותו (של "אלקי קדם") כל בעלי זרוע שוכנים.. לעולם אימת הגבוה על הנמוך", ומסיים "והוא שהכח והגבורה שלו – בעזרך" של כל יהודי. ובמילא מובן שכל יהודי יוצא למלחמת בית דוד.ב' חלקים משיחת יום ה', אור להושענא רבה ה'תשמ"ג ל"הנחה פרטית" או התרגום ללה"ק של השיחה: https://thedailysicha.com/?date=13-10-2025 Synopsis The primary Ushpizin for Hoshana Rabah are Dovid Hamelech and the Rebbe Rashab. The connection between them lies in the famous sichah on the teaching of our Sages, “Whoever goes out to a battle of the House of Dovid writes a bill of divorce for his wife,” where the Rebbe Rashab explains that the reason he founded Yeshivas Tomchei Temimim was to raise soldiers of the House of Dovid who will illuminate the entire world, and who will go out to the “battle of the House of David” to fight against “Your enemies, Hashem, who have abused” and against those who “have abused the footsteps of Your Moshiach,” Dovid, King Moshiach, those who wish to prevent people from crying out, “Moshiach Now!” Since “the words of tzaddikim endure forever,” it is understood that the lesson from “Whoever goes out to a battle of the House of Dovid…” remains in full force even today: The revelation of the coming of Moshiach requires studying the inner and revealed dimensions of Torah (and fusing them into “one Torah,” which is the main novelty of Yeshivas Tomchei Temimim). One must influence every Jew to be among those who go out to the “battle of the House of Dovid,” by “writing a bill of divorce” to bodily and physical matters, and they will surely succeed in this battle, and return home in peace, intact in body and soul, and intact financially as well. This is the connection to shishi of V'Zos HaBrachah, which begins, “The abode for the G-d Who precedes all, and below are the mighty ones of the world…”: As Rashi explains, “all the strong people live below His abode…the fear of the higher one is always upon the lower one,” and as he concludes, “thus, He, to whom power and might belong, is the One Who comes to your aid” – to the aid of every Jew. Thus, it is understood that every Jew goes out to the battle of the House of Dovid.2 excerpts from sichah of Leil Hoshana Rabah 5743 For a transcript in English of the Sicha: https://thedailysicha.com/?date=13-10-2025 לזכות חי' מושקא בת דבורה לאה שתחי' ליום ההולדת שלה כ"א תשרי - לשנת ברכה והצלחה‏, ואריכות ימים ושנים טובות

In this closing episode of the Merkavah Series, we explore Malchus as the culmination of all the Sefiros where everything we've built within ourselves is finally brought into relationship with another, creating something new that did not exist before. Rabbi Meisel shows how Dovid HaMelech embodies this quality by becoming the vessel through which Hashem's kingship is revealed in the world. Learning about Malchus teaches us that the deepest fulfillment comes when we empty ourselves to receive from Hashem and then channel that shefa outward into our marriages, our communities, our work by attuning to what others truly need.Join the Conversation! Be part of our growing community—join the Shema Podcast for the Perplexed WhatsApp group to share feedback, discuss episodes, and suggest future topics.

התוכן 1) אסור ליהודי ליפול ברוחו מחושך הגלות! עליו לזכור תמיד אשר "בני בכורי ישראל"! ומה שרואה דבר בלתי-רצוי, הרי זה גופא מדגיש גודל חיבתן של ישראל אצל ה', "כמשל מלך גדול ונורא הרוחץ בכבודו ובעצמו צואת בנו יחידו מרוב אהבתו". אף שטוב נעלה זה צריך לבוא גם בגילוי לעיני בשר, ע"י שמתגלית גם בחי' "החסיד" (תואר שאא"פ לתאר אפי' ביחס לה' כאשר מעניש וכו'), עד שבנ"י מהללים ומשבחים את ה' על היותו "חסיד", כי הרי [כמ"ש בספר "נעים זמירות ישראל" של דוד מלך ישראל" אשר "חי וקיים"] "מגיד דבריו ליעקב חוקיו ומשפטיו לישראל", ש"מה שהוא עושה אומר לישראל לעשות", ובמזמור שלאח"ז נאמר "וירם קרן לעמו תהילה לכל חסידיו", שאצל בנ"י בחי "חסיד" הוא בגילוי. 2) בשם פ' "פינחס" מודגש הקשר עם הגאולה העתידה, שהרי "פינחס זה אלי'" מבשר הגאולה. והוראה נוספת ממ"ש בראשון פ' פינחס שצ"ל "צרור את המדינים וגו'", ללחום בכל התוקף נגד "ריב ומדון", שנאת חינם – סיבת החורבן. וישנה ההבטחה ש"לא נפקד ממנו איש"! ב' חלקים משיחת יום א' פ' פינחס, ח"י תמוז, צום שבעה עשר בתמוז (נדחה) ה'תשמ"ה ל"הנחה פרטית" או התרגום ללה"ק של השיחה: https://thedailysicha.com/?date=14-07-2025 Synopsis (1) A Jew must never lose heart because of the darkness of exile; he must always remember that the Jewish people are “My firstborn son,” and when he sees something undesirable, this itself emphasizes how great Hashem's love of the Jewish people is, “like the analogy of a great and awesome king who personally in his glory washes the filth of his only son out of his great love.” However, this lofty goodness must also be revealed to the physical eye, by revealing the level of “Chasid” (a title which cannot really be used even regarding Hashem when He exacts punishment etc.), to the point that the Jewish people praise Hashem for being “Chasid,” because (as it says in Tehillim, written by Dovid Hamelech, the Sweet Singer of Israel, who “lives and endures”), “He tells His word to Yaakov, His statutes and His judgments to the Jewish people” – “What He does, He tells the Jewish people to do,” and the following kapitel states, “He raised up a horn for His people, praise to all His pious ones,” meaning the quality of “Chasid” is openly revealed among the Jewish people. (2) The name of parashah “Pinchas” emphasizes the connection to the future Redemption, for “Pinchas is Eliyahu,” who will herald the Redemption. And an additional lesson is derived from the verse (in rishon of parashas Pinchas), “Distress the Midianites, etc.” – to fight with the utmost force against all “strife and discord,” baseless hatred, which was the cause of the destruction of the Beis Hamikdash. And we are promised that “not a man among us will be missing.”2 excerpts from sichah of Sunday, parashas Pinchas, 18 Tammuz (17 Tammuz nidche) 5745.

We learn in Lessons in Tanya chapter 35 with the concept of Hashem's Shechina dwelling in our life, the mashal of the candle. Our generation with the war with Iran brings out this special level even though Benonim can reach of Bital Hamitziut by doing Torah Mitzvot... Making a unification between Hidden and Revealed Torah, Torah and Tefilah through Tehilim, The Mazel are Twins of Sivan bringing the Chizzuk from Shavuot, Simchas HaDaas, Smile

Learning Lessons in Tanya chapter 34 climaxes the essential importance of joy in all aspects of Inner Avodas Hashem. Kabalat HaTorah is the inner Luchos aka Tablets of Joy & Bitterness, learnt from Dovid Hamelech zya, the Baal Shem Tov, the strength of Rus to convert toviling in the deep waters of Efrat to bring out this inner Joy of Moshiach.

Hi everyone! Welcome back to another episode of The Chai on Life Podcast. I'm Alex Segal and today, I am speaking with Mrs. Rivka Segal, a leader in adult Jewish education who has taught Torah to women and girls of all ages for more than thirty years. Before making Aliyah from Baltimore, MD, she taught in Bais Yaakov High School and Maalot Baltimore and was the director of the Women's Institute of Torah. After moving to Israel in 2005, she founded the L'Ayla Women's Initiative in Jerusalem. She is a sought-after speaker, known for her creativity and ability to excite and engage audiences of all ages. For the past fifteen years, she has made Tehillim come alive for thousands of people. She is currently in the process of completing a five-volume series entitled Living Tehillim. To date, three volumes have been published and let me tell you they are so good and will change the way you see and understand the Tehillim that you're saying or even inspire you to start saying them.I interviewed Rivka nearly four years ago for the Chai on Life website and the article we did together continues to be the top performing article today. I think it's because people are searching for more connection in their prayers. They want to connect, they want to daven, they want to fee, to bring Redemption into this world and they're looking for more answers.In the episode, we speak about how Rivka got into Tehillim and how it became a new purpose and passion in life, why Dovid HaMelech was the one who wrote Tehillim and what we can all learn from his greatness, how to connect in your native language to the words of Tehillim, the special connection between Tehillim and Chanukah and really so much more.To find out more about the “Living Tehillim” initiative or to register for her online zoom series, visit her website at www.livingtehillim.com. Learn more from Rivka in our previous interview.
