For this week's episode, AgingIN CEO Susan Ryan sits down with Leslie Eber, MD, a board-certified internal medicine physician, certified medical director, and president of the Society for Post-Acute and Long-Term Care Medicine (PALTmed). Her journey into the field of geriatrics was inspired by her father's commitment to humanitarian service. Her role with PALTmed is helping to shape the future of post-acute and long-term carethrough education, advocacy, and interdisciplinary collaboration. In addition to sharing what it truly means to be a medical director in today's care environment, Dr. Eber explains why deeply knowing the person behind diagnosischanges everything. She also explores with Susan some impactful PALTmed initiatives, like "Drive to Deprescribe," as well as tools to improve quality of life and reduce unnecessary interventions. Ultimately, Lesley paints hopeful vision for the future, where elder communities are fully integrated into society, where intergenerational connections thrive, and where ageism is confronted by recognizing the wisdom and value of those who came before us.

Send us Fan MailOne overlooked verse in Genesis names a son “Division” and quietly points to one of the biggest turning points in human history. We open Genesis 10:22–32 and follow Shem's family line, not as a dry record of ancient names, but as a carefully preserved trail of promise that Scripture protects from Eve all the way to Jesus Christ. Along the way, we clarify why Noah's blessing focuses on Shem, and why the Bible keeps returning to this lineage as the channel of true worship and covenant hope. We also dig into the meaning of “Hebrew” through Eber, showing why the term is broader than “descendants of Abraham” and how it shapes the way we read Old Testament identity and people groups. Then we connect Shem's sons to the real world of nations and language, including Aram and the rise of Aramaic, the common tongue across the region and a language seen in parts of Daniel and Ezra and spoken widely in the time of Jesus. These details matter because they make the Bible's storyline feel grounded, coherent, and historically textured. The heart of the devotional is Peleg: “in his days the earth was divided”. Rather than leaning on speculation, we let the text interpret the text and tie “division” to Babel and the confusion of languages, a linguistic and geographic scattering that still echoes through human life. We close with a direct principle that confronts all of us: one person's sin never stays private, and one person's righteousness never stays contained. Romans 5 brings the ultimate contrast Adam's disobedience that spreads death and Jesus Christ's obedience that brings justification and life. Subscribe, share this with a friend, and leave a review.

Daily Halacha Podcast - Daily Halacha By Rabbi Eli J. Mansour
The Rambam, in Hilchot Talmud Torah (3:12), writes that one cannot achieve success in Torah learning if he learns in a relaxed manner, and only when learning is convenient and comfortable. Like anything else in life, a person excels only through persistence, diligence, and hard work. "Dabbling" in Torah will not result in Torah scholarship – just like "dabbling" in any other field will not lead to mastery or excellence in that field. There are no shortcuts to achievement in Torah study. Rav Mordechai Gifter (1915-2001), Rosh Yeshiva of the Telz Yeshiva in Cleveland, would say that a lot of students want to learn the entire Shas in one night – and also manage to sleep eight hours that night…and to learn while sipping soda… Quite obviously, this is not how it works. A person can succeed in Torah learning only if he is prepared to put in the time, work and effort, and to learn even when conditions are far less than ideal. This includes learning even when one feels tired. Although a person should certainly sleep as much as he needs, he should ensure to use the rest of his time for Torah learning, and not for sleeping beyond what he needs for his physical and emotional wellbeing. Many sources emphasize the particular importance and value of learning Torah during the nighttime hours. In fact, the Gemara (Erubin 65a) states explicitly that the nighttime period was designated specifically for Torah learning. And the Rambam writes in Hilchot Talmud Torah (3:13): "Even though it is a Misva to study both during the day and at night, it is only at night that a person acquires the majority of his wisdom. Therefore, whoever wishes to merit the "Crown of Torah" should be careful with all of his nights, not wasting even one of them on sleep, eating, drinking, idle chatter, or the like—rather, [spending them] in the study of Torah and words of wisdom." The Rambam concludes: "And any house in which the words of Torah are not heard at night will be consumed by fire." If one's "fire" – his passion, his excitement and energy – is directed somewhere else other than Torah, then his home runs the risk, Heaven forbid, of being consumed by fire. The Torah tells (Bereshit 28:11) that when Yaakob was leaving Eretz Yisrael, and he reached the site where the Bet Ha'mikdash would be built, he went to sleep ("Va'yalen Sham"). The Midrash comments that Yaakob slept there – but did not sleep at all during the fourteen previous years, which he spent learning Torah in the yeshiva of Shem and Eber. The commentators explain that this cannot mean that he literally remained awake for fourteen years. Rather, it means that during that period, Yaakob never actually went to sleep in a bed. When he needed to, he put his head down, or found a place to lie so he could get the small amount of sleep that he needed. In order to achieve in Torah learning, one must be prepared to sacrifice physical comfort, and to keep his sleep to a minimum. A different passage in the Midrash tells that King David would go to sleep at nightfall, but he kept a musical instrument by his bedroom window, that served as a kind of "alarm clock." At Hasot (midnight), the wind would blow the strings, producing music, and David would wake up to learn Torah. The Yeser Ha'ra (evil inclination) would try to convince him to go back to sleep, saying that kings normally enjoy the luxury of sleeping late, as they do not have to rise early for work like the commoners. But David would ignore the Yeser Ha'ra and spend the rest of the night engrossed in Torah study. The Gemara (Sukka 26b) instructs that if a person needs to sleep during the day, he should sleep for only a brief amount. Elsewhere (Erubin 65a), the Gemara relates that Rav Hisda's daughter asked why he slept so little, and he replied that soon – after his passing – he would have plenty of time for sleep… Our limited time here in this world should be used productively, and not wasted on excessive rest and relaxation. The Midrash Tanhuma (Parashat Noah, 3) warns that in order to succeed in learning the intricate material of the Torah She'be'al Peh, one cannot aspire to wealth and luxuries; the only way to excel in Torah learning is by sacrificing physical and material comforts. Similarly, Tana De'beh Eliyahu Zuta (14) warns that excessive eating and sleeping leads to "poverty" in the area of Torah knowledge. Normally, when a person stays up late at night and sleeps only the minimum that he requires, he is likely to appear the next day pale, drained, and bleary-eyed, and might not be very pleasant to look at. However, the Gemara (Hagiga 12a) promises that if a person spends his night learning Torah, Hashem "casts a cord of Hesed" over him. This means that he will have a certain "charm" the next day, earning people's admiration and favor despite his fatigue. In a different passage (Sanhedrin 71b), the Gemara teaches that when the righteous sleep, they and the entire world suffer a loss. As the Sadikim spend their time productively, involved in meaningful pursuits that benefit them and the entire world, they and the world lose as a result of the time they spend sleeping. (Conversely, then, when the wicked sleep – and thus are not engaged in their sinful behavior – they and the entire world benefit from their inactivity.) The Gemara in Masechet Menahot (110a) teaches that scholars who spend their nights learning Torah are considered as though they offer sacrifices in the Bet Ha'mikdash. And in Masechet Tamid (32b), the Gemara states that if a person learns Torah at night, the Shechina accompanies him wherever he goes. The Talmud Yerushalmi (Ta'anit 3a) cites Rav Ada Bar Ahaba as avowing that he never slept an entire night, as he always rose early to learn Torah. The Reshit Hochma ( Rabbi Eliyahu de Vidas, 1518–1587) writes that when one learns Torah at night, he is not seen; his study is private, without publicity and fanfare, and this lends it a very special quality. Since he learns secretly, he is worthy of having the hidden secrets of the Torah revealed to him. An especially stern passage appears in Abot De'Rabbi Natan (29:3), warning that if a person is awake at night and not involved in Torah learning, "he would be better off had he been strangled at birth." Rabbenu Yona (Spain, 1200-1263) writes that if a person stays awake at night learning Torah, then he obviates the need for Yisurin (punishments). Since he subjects himself to the discomfort of remaining awake to learn Torah, this counts for whichever kinds of suffering he needs to experience. This is alluded to by the verse in Tehillim (94:12), "Ashreh Ha'geber Asher Teyaserenu Y-ah U'mi'Toratecha Telamedenu" – "Fortunate is the man whom G-d punished, and teaches him from his Torah." This can be read to mean that a person is fortunate if he receives his punishments by immersing himself in intensive Torah learning, exerting hard work and effort. Rabbenu Yona further notes that Moshe Rabbenu did not sleep at all throughout the forty days he spent atop Mount Sinai receiving the Torah – setting an example of minimizing sleep for the sake of Torah learning. If, Rabbenu Yona adds, a king invited someone to his treasury to collect as many riches as he could for a specific period of time, this man would certainly not sleep at all during that time, and would use every moment he could to collect riches. We, too, should use as much of our limited time in this world as we can for Torah learning, collecting spiritual "riches," rather than waste our time indulging in physical comforts. Rav Besalel Ashkenazi (Israel, 1520-1592) writes that in his youth, he spent his nights engaged in Torah study, often learning throughout the night without sleeping. He also occasionally skipped meals. It was through this sacrifice of physical comforts for Torah learning that he achieved Torah scholarship. The Reshit Hochma writes that his esteemed mentor, Rav Yosef Taychik (1465-1546), did not sleep in a bed for forty years, and would instead sit on an elevated piece of furniture with his legs dangling, such that he would not stay asleep for an extended period. He rose every night at midnight and spent the rest of the night learning Torah. And a disciple of Rav Yehonatan Eibshutz (1694-1764) testified that throughout the years he spent learning under him, Rav Yehonatan never slept in a bed, and instead dozed for brief periods in his chair. Rav Chaim Brim (Jerusalem, 1922-2002) related that the Hazon Ish (Rav Abraham Yeshaya Karelitz, 1878-1953) was once found sleeping on his bed in the wrong position – with his feet on the side where the head was supposed to be. The people told him to turn around, and he said, "If I had the strength to turn myself around, I would learn another Tosafot." The Hazon Ish continued learning Torah until he had no strength left, not even to turn his body around. Rav Haim Palachi (Turkey, 1788-1868) wrote that if a person could see into the future, to the time when he would be in the grave, and understand the extent of the regret he would experience for not having used his time properly, he would never waste time, and he would minimize his sleep in order to spend more time learning Torah. Rav Palachi added that a person who rises at midnight to learn Torah earns the status of a "friend" of Hashem and of the Nation of Israel, and he will be spared punishments that befall the rest of the world. The Reshit Hochma notes that when rising at midnight to learn Torah, one should be driven solely by his genuine love for Hashem, and not by any ulterior motives. Only if his intentions are pure will he reap the precious rewards for learning Torah at night. The Reshit Hochma says that as a teenager, he devoted himself entirely to Torah study, engaging in virtually no other activities. The Peleh Yoetz (Rav Eliezer Papo, 1785-1828) urges us to train ourselves to sleep fewer hours and to learn Torah even when we feel drowsy, in order to maximize the amount of time we have to devote to Torah. The Ben Ish Hai (Rav Yosef Haim of Baghdad, 1833-1909) discusses the great value of learning Torah in the predawn hours, adding that one's intentions should be for the sake of Hashem, and not to earn reward. The Tchebiner Rav (1881-1965) had the practice on Shabbat afternoons of testing schoolchildren on their Torah studies. One Shabbat afternoon, a boy knocked on his door, but there was no answer, as the Rabbi was sleeping. The youngster continued knocking until the Rabbi answered. The Rabbi gently told the boy that if nobody answers the door on Shabbat afternoon, this usually means that the people in the home are asleep. "I didn't think that the Rabbi slept on Shabbat afternoon!" The Tchebiner Rav committed to never sleep again on Shabbat afternoon, acknowledging that this was the expectation of a sage of his stature. From all these sources, we see the importance of learning Torah even when one feels tired, and that we must try to push ourselves to achieve to the best of our ability rather than spend our free time relaxing and learning only when it is easy and convenient.

This devotion could also be called “The Descendants of Shem, Part 3.” Our last Genesis devotion was about Eber and Peleg. In this devotion we look at the descendants of Eber's other son, Joktan, one of whom became renowned for gold.Music Credit: J. S. Bach, “Wir eilen mit schwachen, doch emsigen Schritten,” aria from “Jesu, der du meine Seele,” BWV 78 (Leipzig, 1724).
After tracing the sons of Japheth and Ham, Moses now pursues the line of the Messiah, which will continue to be his focus in the rest of Genesis. In this devotion, we consider how Eber and Peleg received their names, and how their lives coincided with the events of the Tower of Babel.Music Credit: J. S.

Moses is going to focus on Arphaxad and his sons, including Eber, because they will be in the lineage of the Messiah. But first he briefly covers the other sons of Shem, giving a little extra attention to Aram, due to the Aramaic influence on God's people.Music Credit: J. S.

The Tower of Babel is one of those events that is incredibly important but often misunderstood. Today, we'll study Genesis 11 and see why this passage is in our Bibles and how it serves as a dark backdrop to the entire message of God's Word. Join us for a key study in the key chapters in God's Word! DISCUSSION AND STUDY QUESTIONS: 1. Read through Genesis 11 and place a box around any words or phrases that speak of man's unity. Place a triangle around any words or phrases that speak of man's disunity. How does man's inability to communicate contribute to the disharmony among people? 2. Read through Genesis 11 and circle the names Shem (in verse 10), Eber (in verse 14), Terah (in verse 24), and Abram (in verse 26). Then draw a line that connects them all, starting from Shem and ending with Abram. What is the significance of these connections? 3. How did the study suggest that Genesis 11 serves as a dark backdrop to the rest of the Bible? What is so dark in this chapter? What is the diamond at the end of it? 4. In verse 4, what reason did the people give for wanting to stay in the land of Shinar? What command was this in direct disobedience to? What was the purpose of that command? 5. Looking at how the people were reasoning in verses 3 and 4, would you say they were taking God's instructions into consideration or disregarding them? Why do you think they had this mindset? 6. In verse 4, was their sin "building the tower" or something else? How is that significant to the plan of God given in Genesis 1:28 and 9:1? 7. The people used God's blessings to sin against Him. How might a person still use their God-given blessings to sin against Him? What, instead, should we do with God's blessings? 8. How did God's judgment redirect the people to obey His commands? What does this tell us about one of the purposes of God's judgment? 9. Who is the key person mentioned in verse 26? According to Genesis 17:5, what was his name later changed to? What did this new name mean? 10. The people who settled in the Plain of Shinar were doing what seemed good to them, but they completely disregarded God's commands. When you look at your approach to life, how do you make decisions? Do most of your decisions simply reflect what you think is best? Do you normally consult God's Word for what He says on that matter? Why or why not? 11. Would the people who know you describe you as a person who is actively seeking live according to God's way? Are you a person who seeks to please God, obey Him, and glorify Him? Why or why not? 12. What implication does the meaning of "Abraham" have for the kind of nation Abraham was to be the father of? What does the study tell us about God's plan for choosing Abram from among the nations? 13. Although we ought to obey God, none of us do perfectly. None of us can fully obey Him in our own strength. As we end our study in Genesis 11, take a moment to seek God's transforming grace, so that He might transform your heart, mind, will, and actions to conform to His holy standard in submission to His Son, who is our Lord and God and King?

Your life today is the result of the choices you've made—and the ones you've avoided. In this eye-opening message from Jasher 28, Bishop Omar reveals how two brothers—Jacob and Esau—shared the same upbringing but chose completely different paths. Jacob pursued the instruction of the Lord for 32 years under Shem and Eber; Esau refused to go, choosing comfort over calling.This message exposes the danger of spiritual complacency and reminds us that faith isn't inherited—it's chosen. You'll learn to evaluate your decisions through three dimensions:Spiritual – Are you prayerless or ignoring God's voice?Physical – Are your emotions driving your choices?Psychological – Are you stuck in blame or excuses?The lesson is simple but life-changing: Clarify. Consider. Choose. Stop seeking wisdom from dead sources when you have access to the Living God. This could be the day your wisdom begins to reign.
Throughout the book of Genesis, which was clearly written thousands of years ago, there are predictions and promises made by God that are inescapably true to this day. God promised that a descendant of Adam and Eve would one day crush the head of the Liar. By virtue of the historical narrative of Genesis and the Old Testament, we can trace the fulfillment of that promise from generation to generation until we come to a manger in Bethlehem.Support the showThanks for listening!

Parashat Lech L'cha [Genesis 12:1-17:27] is the third of the parashiyot in Sefer Bereshit [Book of Genesis]. It has long been recognized as the beginning of our Jewish journey, though Abram [who is renamed Abraham in the parashah] is never identified as a Jew. He is Abram the Ivri, the Hebrew, which might be understood as Abram, the descendant of Eber, or Abram, the one who stood over and against the world with his proclamation of monotheism in a world of pagan worship. Our conversation focused on the opening verses, with God's charge to Abraham. What is the force of the phrase ve'h'yeh b'rakha, be a blessing [12:2]? What is Abraham's mission? We also compared him with Sarah, about both of whom the Torah records that they laughed in response to the news about an impending pregnancy. What kind of laughter was it? What does it teach us about Sarah and Abraham, not only as individuals, but as marriage partners? This is a particularly rich parashah [which probably could be said about all the parashiyot in Genesis], but what distinguioshes this, perhaps, is the number of discrete scenes. We continue to keep in mind the hostages whose remains are still in Gaza. May they be returned swiftly to their families for a final, dignified, funeral. We are also mindful of the men and women defending Israel as part of the Israel Defense Forces, may they be removed from harm's way. Shabbat Shalom.

What if the behavior approach everyone swears by is actually making some kids worse?Check-In/Check-Out (CICO) is one of the most common Tier 2 interventions in school counseling, but most trainings leave out the detail that decides whether it works or fails.

In this powerful episode, we trace the sacred bloodline of Shem, the son ofNoah who was uniquely blessed as the ancestor of God's covenant people.Beginning in Genesis 10:21–31, we follow Shem's descendants—Elam, Asshur, Arphaxad, Lud, and Aram—and zero in on the line of Arphaxad through Eber, the forefather of the Hebrews.But this is more than just a family tree.Jubilees Chapter 8 takes us deeper, revealing that Shem was not only given a spiritual heritage but also the most sacred territory on Earth—the land that would become Jerusalem, Mount Zion, and the heart of God's Kingdom. We uncover how the Promised Land was originally assigned to Shem, and how Canaan's illegal occupation of that land triggered a spiritual conflict that would shape the destiny of nations.From the division of the earth in Peleg's day, to the naming of sacred boundaries on heavenly tablets, we see how Shem's line was divinely chosen to carry both the seed of promise and the future of God's plan. This episode connects the ancient past to the prophetic future—laying the foundation for the Abrahamic covenant, the rise of Israel, and the ultimate return of the Messiah to Zion.This is the story of divine inheritance, territorial destiny, and the unfolding of redemption—through Shem, the blessed line.

In this 4th installment of our Melchizedek series,we continue our exploration of the historical and theological aspects of the Melchizedekian Priesthood. We examine the connections between Shem, Avram, and the Melchizedekian lineage as depicted in the Book of Jasher. Our discussion covers various perspectives on the Melchizedekian Priesthood, including its significance and the roles of key Hebrew patriarchal figures. We also address the controversies and differing views surrounding the identity of Melchizedek and the legitimacy of the Book of Jasher as a historical and sacred source.
The Tower of Babel is one of those events that is incredibly important but often misunderstood. Today, we'll study Genesis 11 and see why this passage is in our Bibles and how it serves as a dark backdrop to the entire message of God's Word. Join us for a key study in the key chapters in God's Word! DISCUSSION AND STUDY QUESTIONS: Genesis 11 1. Read through Genesis 11 and place a box around any words or phrases that speak of man's unity. Place a triangle around any words or phrases that speak of man's disunity. How does man's inability to communicate contribute to the disharmony among people? 2. Read through Genesis 11 and circle the names Shem (in verse 10), Eber (in verse 14), Terah (in verse 24), and Abram (in verse 26). Then draw a line that connects them all, starting from Shem and ending with Abram. What is the significance of these connections? 3. How did the study suggest that Genesis 11 serves as a dark backdrop to the rest of the Bible? What is so dark in this chapter? What is the diamond at the end of it? 4. In verse 4, what reason did the people give for wanting to stay in the land of Shinar? What command was this in direct disobedience to? What was the purpose of that command? 5. Looking at how the people were reasoning in verses 3 and 4, would you say they were taking God's instructions into consideration or disregarding them? Why do you think they had this mindset? 6. In verse 4, was their sin “building the tower” or something else? How is that significant to the plan of God given in Genesis 1:28 and 9:1? 7. The people used God's blessings to sin against Him. How might a person still use their God-given blessings to sin against Him? What, instead, should we do with God's blessings? 8. How did God's judgment redirect the people to obey His commands? What does this tell us about one of the purposes of God's judgment? 9. Who is the key person mentioned in verse 26? According to Genesis 17:5, what was his name later changed to? What did this new name mean? 10. The people who settled in the Plain of Shinar were doing what seemed good to them, but they completely disregarded God's commands. When you look at your approach to life, how do you make decisions? Do most of your decisions simply reflect what you think is best? Do you normally consult God's Word for what He says on that matter? Why or why not? 11. Would the people who know you describe you as a person who is actively seeking live according to God's way? Are you a person who seeks to please God, obey Him, and glorify Him? Why or why not? 12. What implication does the meaning of “Abraham” have for the kind of nation Abraham was to be the father of? What does the study tell us about God's plan for choosing Abram from among the nations? 13. Although we ought to obey God, none of us do perfectly. None of us can fully obey Him in our own strength. As we end our study in Genesis 11, take a moment to seek God's transforming grace, so that He might transform your heart, mind, will, and actions to conform to His holy standard in submission to His Son, who is our Lord and God and King?

The Torah in Parashat Vayishlah tells the famous story of the mysterious man who attacked Yaakob Abinu as he was making his way back to Eretz Yisrael from Haran. Yaakob and his assailant wrestled throughout the night, with Yaakob ultimately emerging victorious, though with an injury to his thigh which made him limp. The Rabbis teach us that this assailant was actually not a man, but an angel. Specifically, it was Satan, who came to attempt to block Yaakob Abinu, to prevent him from continuing his journey and the process of building Am Yisrael. The question arises, though, why did Satan attack only Yaakob? Why did he not try to obstruct the path of Abraham or Yishak? These three patriarchs built the foundations of Am Yisrael – and yet, for some reason, Satan waited until the emergence of the third patriarch, Yaakob, to launch his assault and try to prevent the rise of Hashem's special nation. Why? Rav Elhanan Wasserman (1874-1941) answered this question by taking a closer look at the unique characteristics embodied by Abraham, Yishak and Yaakob. Abraham, of course, embodied the attribute of Hesed, kindness, extending himself generously and selflessly for the sake of others. Even after undergoing the painful procedure of Berit Mila at an advanced age, he sat outside hoping to find weary travelers in need of hospitality whom he could invite and help. Yishak is associated with the quality of "Aboda," serving G-d through sacrifice and prayer. This quality is best exemplified by his having been placed on an altar as a sacrifice to Hashem. He embodied the devoted service of Hashem, which nowadays, in the absence of the Bet Ha'mikdash, is done primarily through prayer. Finally, Yaakob represents the value of intensive Torah study. He is described as a "dweller of tents" (Bereshit 25:27), referring to the halls of Torah learning. And even when he was forced to leave because of Esav's threat to kill him, he first went to the yeshiva of Eber, where he spent fourteen years diligently learning, without even taking time to sleep (Rashi, Bereshit 28:11). Rav Elhanan explained that whereas all three qualities are vitally important components of Jewish life, it is the third of these qualities that guarantees our survival as a nation. A Jew must, of course, act with kindness, but this attribute is not unique to our nation. Other nations also recognize the great value of Hesed, and many non-Jews are wonderfully kind and generous. In fact, we are privileged to live in a country that guarantees the rights of all its citizens, and even has welfare systems in place to help the underprivileged. Clearly, Hesed is not a strictly Jewish value. The same is true of "Aboda." Followers of all religions pray, and perform rituals in the service of their deity. And there are, unfortunately, many Jews who pray to Hashem, but without accepting the core beliefs of Judaism, or living a Torah lifestyle. The value that sets us apart from everyone else, and which thus ensures our continuity and survival as a distinct nation, is Torah. Immersing ourselves in our sacred texts, absorbing our ancient wisdom, is what enables us to resist the lures and pressures that abound, to withstand the powerful cultural influences that are all around us, and to preserve our faith. This is why the Satan felt threatened specifically by Yaakob, and not by Abraham or Yishak. He was not worried about the Jewish People's extraordinary devotion to Hesed, or about our filled-to-capacity houses of worship. Neither of these guarantee our eternity, because other nations are also kind and also have houses of prayer. Satan sprang into action only when he saw Yaakob Abinu, the bastion of Torah learning, because it is the devotion to intensive Torah study that ensures Am Yisrael's survival throughout the generations. As mentioned, although the Satan was unable to eliminate Yaakob, he did succeed in crippling Yaakob, by dealing a blow to his thigh. The Zohar comments that the thigh symbolizes the supporters of Torah. Just as the legs hold up the body, the generous donors who fund Torah education are the ones who maintain the Jewish People. When the Satan realized that it was unable to destroy Yaakob, it dealt a debilitating blow to the thigh, to the support of Torah. Indeed, there has never been a shortage of Jews interested in learning Torah, but there is often difficulty in funding Torah learning. Parents are reluctant to incur the significant costs of providing their children with a Torah education, and yeshivot and kollelim struggle to raise enough money for their institutions to operate. We must remember that Torah learning is the best "insurance policy" we have for Jewish survival. In a time when we face unprecedented spiritual challenges, when we are, sadly, witnessing assimilation on a mass scale, the best way to ensure our continuity is intensive, rigorous Torah learning. Hesed and prayer are critically important, but not sufficient. In order for us to withstand the relentless attacks of today's "Satan," the challenges it has put in our way, we must make time for our own Torah learning and also allocate the resources needed to support our Torah institutions.

Za totality kolovala anekdota, ve které si americký a sovětský prezident navzájem ukazují státní pokladnice. Americká je samozřejmě v pevnosti s vojenskou posádkou, zatímco sovětská v dřevěné barabizně s visacím zámkem uprostřed pusté pláně. A když se nad tím Američan podivuje, Sovět odpovídá: „Ale náš největší poklad je lid. A ten my si důkladně hlídáme!“

Daily Halacha Podcast - Daily Halacha By Rabbi Eli J. Mansour
Does the Misva of Kibud Ab Va'em – honoring parents – require a grown child to live near his parents so he can care for them, or simply because they want to be near him? Or is one allowed to live wherever he pleases, regardless of his parents' preference? Numerous sources indicate that one must, indeed, live near his parents. The Gemara comments that Yaakob Abinu was punished for the years he spent away from his parents, Yishak and Ribka, clearly implying that one must live near his parents so he can fulfill the Misva of Kibud Ab Va'em. The Maharil (Rav Yaakob Halevi Mollin, Germany, 1365-1427), as recorded in his "Likkutim," ruled explicitly that a person should live near his parents (listen to audio recording for precise citation). Some inferred this ruling from the comments of the Rambam (Rabbi Moshe Maimonides, Spain-Egypt, 1135-1204), who writes that if a person's parent became senile, then the son should move somewhere else – implying that under normal circumstances one should live near his parents. Furthermore, the Sefer Ha'hasidim (by Rabbenu Yehuda Ha'hasid, Germany, 1150-1217) writes that if one's parents instruct him not to get married, because they are afraid that he would then move away, he should not listen to them; rather, he should get married and live with or near his parents. Once again, we see that if the parents want their child to live near them, then he should accede to their wishes. The Midrashic volume Yalkut Reubeni similarly comments, "It is an honor for a parent to live near his children." This is also the position of the Aruch Ha'shulhan (Rav Yehiel Michel Epstein of Nevarduk, 1829-1908), who writes that a person does not have to accede to his parents' demand that he not go away from town to learn Torah. The Gemara writes that Yaakob was not punished for the years he spent away from home learning in the yeshiva of Shem and Eber, thus demonstrating that one may leave his parents' town – even against their wishes – for the purpose of learning Torah. Otherwise, however, one must remain near his parents. This is, indeed, the Halacha. Just as one must acquire Tefillin so he can fulfill the Misva of Tefillin each day, similarly, one must ensure to live near his parents so he can fulfill the important Torah obligation of Kibud Ab Va'em. Even if the parents do not need their child to care for them, nevertheless, if they want him to live near them, he should accede to their wishes. There are, however, several important exceptions to this rule. The Aruch Ha'shulhan rules that if one needs to move away for purposes of earning a living – meaning, his job requires him to relocate – then he may move away even against his parents' wishes. Furthermore, if living near one's parents may threaten his Shalom Bayit (peace in the home), such as if they will meddle in his personal affairs and interfere with his marriage, then he may move away. Certainly, if there are no suitable options for one's children's Jewish education in the area where his parents live, then he may move elsewhere for the sake of his children's education. And, it goes without saying that if the parents approve of their child's decision to move away, then he is permitted to do so. Summary: The Misva of honoring parents requires a person to live near his parents, unless they do not mind if he lives elsewhere, or if he must live somewhere else for reasons such as work or his children's education, or if he fears his parents may interfere with his marriage.

A well-crafted story can fuel connection. It can inspire trust and entertain. Better still, it can have a ripple effect. Yet most of us avoid telling stories. Instead, we stick to the facts and emphasize the data. Now, even if we believe this is the best way to convey information, our brains, if they could talk, would disagree. That's why, if we want to connect, persuade, or just keep our audience's attention, we need to get better at storytelling. That's why I wanted to speak with Karen Eber, author of the book, The Perfect Story: How to Tell Stories That Inform, Influence, and Inspire. Karen not only explains why stories matter, she also explains how to craft them. Every section of this book is filled with takeaways you can immediately put into practice. It's a book I'll return to again and again.

Most of us have seen a TED talk, or attended a conference where someone was giving a keynote presentation. Many of us have probably thought they might like to do that at some point. The reason people don't move forward with that, though, is they feel like they either don't have a story to tell, or don't know how to tell it in a way that can capture an audience's attention. In this episode, Karen Eber, author of The Perfect Story, joins Chris to talk about storytelling and how you can use it to dynamically engage with others. Whether you're giving a presentation, selling to a client or customer, or leading a team of people, the skills of storytelling are more vital than ever. If you're trying to get a point or a lesson across, or sell a product or service, you want to be able to engage the brain in the very unique way that storytelling can. Karen and Chris will discuss storytelling from both an emotional and scientific standpoint, including how stories can induce Neural Coupling between the storyteller and the audience, the framework for a great story, why constraints are a key part of success when telling a story, and why vulnerability is so helpful in engaging your audience.
