התוכן ארץ ישראל צריכה גשמים מיד אחר חג הסוכות, ומ"מ מתחילים לשאול גשמים שם רק מז' מרחשון, ט"ו יום אחר החג, "כדי שיגיע האחרון שבישראל שעלה לרגל, לביתו לנהר פרת, שהוא מקום ישוב היותר רחוק מירושלים, ולא יעצרנו הגשם" [אדה"ז בשו"ע]. ובזה מודגשת הענין דאחדות ישראל: שאלת גשמים מיד אחרי החג היא צורך חיוני ביותר לקיומו של האדם, ולאידך, טובתו של "אחרון שבישראל" שלא ירדו גשמים עד שיגיע לביתו "שלא יעצרנו הגשם" אינו אלא ענין של נוחיות בלבד, ואעפ"כ מתאחדים כל בנ"י בא"י ומאחרים את שאלת הגשמים ט"ו יום כדי שה"אחרון שבישראל" יוכל להגיע לביתו בנוחיות! אע"פ שמצות עשה מן התורה לבקש צרכיו מה', וכמו"כ "אין לאדם רשות על גופו כלל . . לצערו בשום צער", כי "אין נפשו של אדם קנינו אלא קנין הקב"ה"! [המשך יבוא]ב' חלקים משיחת אור ליום ג' פ' לך לך, ז' מרחשון ה'תשמ"ו ל"הנחה פרטית" או התרגום ללה"ק של השיחה: https://thedailysicha.com/?date=28-10-2025 Synopsis Although Eretz Yisroel needs rain immediately after Sukkos, the inhabitants of the land do not begin asking for rain until 7 Marcheshvan – fifteen days after Sukkos ends, “so that the last of the Jews who made their way up [to Yerushalayim] for the pilgrimage could return to their homes on the Euphrates River – the most distant settlement from Yerushalayim – without being impeded by rain” (Alter Rebbe's Shulchan Aruch). This emphasizes Jewish unity, because although asking rain is a vital necessity, whereas the concern of “the last of the Jews” being impeded by rain is merely a matter of convenience, nevertheless, all the Jews in Eretz Yisroel unite in delaying their request for rain by fifteen days, so that the last of the Jews could reach his home with ease. And this is despite the fact that it is a positive mitzvah of the Torah to request one's needs from Hashem, and moreover, “A person has no authority over his body at all…to cause it any pain,” because “a person's soul is not his own possession but the possession of the Holy One, blessed be He.” (To be continued.)2 excerpts from sichah of Monday night, parashas Lech Lecha, 7 Marcheshvan 5746 For a transcript in English of the Sicha: https://thedailysicha.com/?date=28-10-2025 לזכות ר' לוי הלוי בן לאה שי' לרפואה שלימהנדבת משפחתו שי'

Why the Dor Hamabul was destroyed for their sins while the Dor Haflaga was simply dispersed on account of theirs. 

Parshas Noach: The Hidden Truth Our Parsha tells of Noach, a man who remained faithful as the world fell into chaos. After the flood, G-d placed a rainbow in the sky, a sign of His eternal covenant with humanity. The Rebbe teaches that the rainbow was not created anew, but revealed. The flood had purified the world, thinning the darkness so Divine light could finally pass through. What once hid the light now revealed it. The rainbow became a reflection of G-d's mercy and of the light concealed within every storm. In honor of Eretz Yisroel, May G-d protect our brave soldiers and give healing to our nation Dedicated in loving memory of Edward Ben Efraim, Shlomo Ben Edward, and Yirachmiel Daniel Ben Gedalia.

Was Adam HaRishon jewish and what the world would've looked like had he not sinned.

The Yom Kippur Perspective: Unbound, Forgiven, Free Yom Kippur is the holiest day of the year, a time when we abstain from physical pleasures and rise to angel-like clarity. From Kol Nidrei's haunting melody to Neilah's closing cry of Shema, the day carries us from release to renewal. The Rebbe explains that Kol Nidrei is not about G-d's forgiveness, that comes with the day itself, it is about freeing ourselves from the vows, guilt, and limits that keep us bound. Only then can our truest self emerge, ready to be sealed in the Book of Life. In honor of Eretz Yisroel, May G-d protect our brave soldiers and return all the hostages in Gaza immediately. Dedicated in loving memory of Edward Ben Efraim, Shlomo Ben Edward, and Yirachmiel Daniel Ben Gedalia.

התוכן ידוע המשל של אדה"ז על חודש אלול: "משל למלך שקודם בואו לעיר יוצאין אנשי העיר לקראתו ומקבלין פניו בשדה ואז רשאין [ומוסיף כ"ק מו"ח אדמו"ר: ויכולים] כל מי שרוצה להקביל פניו וכו'" [וזה מתחיל מליל א' דר"ח אלול]. מובן שצ"ל "כלי" לזה. מה טוב שכל הג' לבושים, מחשבה דיבור ומעשה, יהיו בשלימות. "בכל לבבך" - מחשבה, "בכל נפשך" - דבור, "בכל מאודך" - מעשה. [וג' ענינים אלו מודגשים גם במ"ש הרמב"ם אודות מעלת שבט לוי, ואשר "לא שבט לוי בלבד אלא כל איש ואיש.. אשר נדבה רוחו.. ה"ז נתקדש קודש קדשים"]. אבל המעשה "הוא העיקר". וזה קשור עם חודש אלול כאשר "אנשי העיר" נמצאים "בשדה", שעיקר העבודה שם הוא במעשה וכו', ולשם מגיע ה"מלך", ובאופן ש"מלך לשדה נעבד" - למעליותא. ויה"ר שתיכף ומיד ממש נלך עם ה"מלך" לאה"ק, ולירושלים עיר הקודש, ולביהמ"ק, בגאולה האמיתית והשלימה. [ועוד].ב' חלקים משיחת אור ליום ה' דפ' שופטים, אדר"ח אלול ה'תשמ"ט ל"הנחה פרטית" או התרגום ללה"ק של השיחה: https://thedailysicha.com/?date=24-08-2025 Synopsis The Alter Rebbe famously compares the month of Elul to the “Analogy of a king who, before coming to the city, the people of the city go out to greet him and they receive him in the field, and then whoever wishes is permitted (and the Rebbe, my father-in-law adds: and able) to greet him etc.” (And this begins from the first night of Rosh Chodesh Elul.) Obviously, one must be a proper “vessel” for this, and especially by perfecting all three garments of thought, speech, and action: “With all your heart (thought), with all your soul (speech) and with all your might (action).” (All three are also emphasized in the Rambam's statement about the special status of the tribe of Levi, and how “not only the tribe of Levi, but every single individual…whose spirit generously moves him… is sanctified as holy of holies.”) But action is the main thing. And this is connected to the month of Elul, when the “people of the city” are in the field, where the primary focus is on action, etc., and the “King” comes there – in such a way that “a king is subservient to the field,” in the positive sense. May it be Hashem's will that we go immediately together with the “king” to Eretz Yisroel, to Yerushalayim, the holy city, and to the Beis Hamikdash, with the true and complete Redemption.2 excerpts from sichah of Wednesday night, parashas Shoftim, first night of Rosh Chodesh Elul 5749 For a transcript in English of the Sicha: https://thedailysicha.com/?date=24-08-2025 לזכות ר' מנחם מענדל בן רחל יהודית שי' חאריטאן ליום הולדת שלו החמישים ביום אדר"ח אלול ה'תשפ"הלשנת ברכה והצלחה, אריכות ימים ושנים טובותנדבת אביו ר' יצחק יעקב שי' חאריטאן

We review and move into the strong emunah found in Eretz Yisroel

התוכן הוראה ממ"ש בראשון דפ' ראה "כי לא באתם עד עתה אל המנוחה ואל הנחלה .. וישבתם בארץ .. והניח לכם מכל אויביכם מסביב": "מנוחה" מורה ששייך מצב של מלחמה אלא שכעת יש לו מנוחה מזה, משא"כ "נחלה" אין לה הפסק. והתכלית היא שגם המנוחה מאויבים תהי' לעולם ע"י שמהפכים את כל האויבים לאוהבים - "והניח לכם מכל אויביכם". ובעבודה: עוה"ז מצ"ע הוא "עלמא דפרודא" ו"נעשה אדם" לשון רבים – שישנו קס"ד שקיימות ב' מחנות - א' שעוסק בלימוד התורה ולא בבירור העולם, כמו דור המדבר, וא' שעוסק בעניני מסחר והעולם ואינו עוסק בעצמו בתורה אלא נותן צדקה שמישהו אחר ילמד תורה. מצב זה, אף שלא נלחמים זב"ז ואפי' אם מסייעים זל"ז, אי"ז מנוחה אמיתית. תכלית ירידת הנשמה למטה היא להגיע למנוחה אמיתית שהיא כשאין "אויבים" כלל וכולם במחנה אחד: דור המדבר עצמו כובש את א"י ועושה שם משכן לו ית' והבעל-עסק עצמו קובע עתים לתורה. וזהו הענין ד"גוי אחד בארץ", להמשיך את "ה' אחד" גם בענינים ארציים.ב' חלקים משיחת יום א' פ' ראה, כ"ף מנחם-אב ה'תשכ"ט ל"הנחה פרטית" או התרגום ללה"ק של השיחה: https://thedailysicha.com/?date=17-08-2025 Synopsis A lesson from the verse (in rishon of parashas Re'eh), “Because you have not yet come to the resting place nor to the inheritance…you must settle in the land…He will grant you respite from all your surrounding enemies”: “Resting” implies that there is a possibility of war, just that at present there is rest from it. “Inheritance,” by contrast, has no end. And the ultimate goal is that even the rest from enemies should be eternal, by transforming all the enemies into friends – “He will grant you respite from all your…enemies.” In terms of Divine service: This world by nature is the “world of separation,” and the verse states, “Let us make man…” in the plural, allowing for the mistaken notion that there are two separate camps, one camp is involved in Torah study without engaging in refining the world (like the generation of the desert), while the other is involved in business and worldly matters and does not occupy itself with Torah study (but gives tzedakah so that someone else can study Torah). Even if the two camps are not fighting one another, and even assist one another, this is still not true rest. The purpose of the soul's descent below is to attain true rest, which is when there are no enemies at all and all belong to one camp: the generation of the desert itself conquers Eretz Yisroel and builds a Mishkan there for Hashem, and the businessman himself sets fixed times for Torah study. This is the meaning of “One nation in the land” – to draw down the reality that “Hashem is One” into even earthly matters.2 excerpts from sichah of Sunday, parashas Re'eh, 20 Menachem-Av 5729 For a transcript in English of the Sicha: https://thedailysicha.com/?date=17-08-2025 לע”נ הרה"ח התמים ר' אליעזר דניאל ב"ר שמואל יעקב ע"ה מייערס ליום היארצייט שלו כ"ג מנחם-אב. ת.נ.צ.ב.ה.

Did the Rabbis of Eretz Yisroel learn the lesson of שִׂנְאַת חִנָּם in the wake of the Destruction of the בֵּית הַמִּקְדָּשׁ?

התוכן 1) [המשך] וההוראה: כאשר א' רואה במדבר הגלות "נחש שרף ועקרב" – צריך לזכור שה"גדול ונורא", ה', נותן לו כוח זה! (וכמ"ש בשיעור חומש דיום זה ששייך להיות "ושכחת את ה' אלקיך" עד כדי כך שאינו רואה ש"הוא הנותן לך כח לעשות חיל"). ואז יוכל לפעול שה"נחש שרף ועקרב" הזה לא רק ש"לא ירעו ולא ישחיתו" אלא עוד יסייע לכל א' בקיום תומ"צ וכו'. וזה גם מה שדובר לעיל אודות הפצת המעיינות עצמן, ש"מקור מים חיים" הוא הרי ה"גדול ונורא", הקב"ה – בתוך ה"חוצה" עצמו. 2) בפ' עקב כתוב ענין נפלא ש"לא בצדקתך וביושר לבבך אתה בא לרשת את ארצם כי ברשעת הגוים האלה ה' אלקיך מורישם מפניך ולמען הקים את הדבר אשר נשבע ה' לאבותיך וגו'". ואם רואים שה"רשעת הגויים האלה" קיים ותקיף והולף ומוסיף, הרי עאכו"כ שכ"ה בנוגע "למען הקים את הדבר אשר נשבע ה' וגו'". ועל כל יהודי להכריז בגלוי שארץ ישראל ניתן לישראל ע"י ה', ויש לאחוז בו בתוקף של "גדול ונורא", ועי"ז יתהפכו ה"נחש שרף ועקרב" לסייע לבנ"י להביאם לארצנו הק'.ב' חלקים משיחת אור לט"ו באב ה'תש"מ ל"הנחה פרטית" או התרגום ללה"ק של השיחה: https://thedailysicha.com/?date=12-08-2025 Synopsis (Continued.) (1) The lesson is that when a person sees “snakes, vipers, and scorpions” in the desert of exile, he must remember that Hashem, who is “great and awesome,” gives him the power to overcome them. (As it says in today's Chumash, it is possible to “forget Hashem your G-d” to the extent that one doesn't recognize that it is “He who gives you the strength to make wealth.”) And thus he will be able to cause the “snakes, vipers, and scorpions” to not only “neither harm nor destroy,” but even to assist every Jew in their fulfillment of Torah and mitzvos etc. This is also what was discussed earlier about spreading the wellsprings themselves; the “source of living waters,” Hashem, is “great and awesome” within the “outside” itself. (2) Parashas Eikev contains a wondrous idea: “You are coming to take possession of their land neither because of your righteousness nor because of the integrity of your heart. Rather, it is because of the wickedness of these nations that Hashem your G-d is driving them out from before you, and in order to fulfill the promise that Hashem swore to your forefathers….” – if one sees that the “wickedness of these nations” still exists and continues to intensify, then certainly that is the case regarding “in order to fulfill the promise that Hashem swore….” Every Jew must openly declare that Eretz Yisroel was given by Hashem to the Jewish people, and must hold onto it with the strength of the “great and awesome” one, and in this way the “snakes, vipers, and scorpions” will be transformed so that they will assist in bringing the Jewish people to our Holy Land.2 excerpts from sichah of 15 Av 5740 For a transcript in English of the Sicha: https://thedailysicha.com/?date=12-08-2025

Why was Joseph, the viceroy of Egypt, buried in the Land of Israel, while Moses, the greatest Jewish leader in history, was not?In this timely and emotionally-charged class, Rabbi Yisroel Bernath unpacks a Midrashic conversation between Moses and G-d that reveals something deeper than geography: the power of Jewish identity without shame. Joseph never let go of his roots, even when it cost him everything. Moses, for reasons of his own, allowed others to misidentify him.What emerges is not a critique, but a calling.This is a class about Eretz Yisroel, yes. But it's also a class about spiritual backbone, about moral clarity, and about what it means to be a proud Jew in a world that often wants us to shrink.KEY TAKEAWAYSBeing “too Jewish” is never the problem, being disconnected is. Joseph's merit was his unapologetic loyalty to Israel, even in exile. Spiritual identity is not something we rent. It's who we are. Moses was not punished, he simply wasn't a fit for a mission he didn't fully embody. Today, being a Joseph means embracing our role as G-d's ambassadors, even in the toughest rooms. Israel is not just a land—it's the soul's homeland. Even from across the globe, we are rooted there. When we stop apologizing for our presence, our light begins to shine.#Israel #Judaism #Jewish #Zionism #EretzYisrael #Midrash #Moses #Joseph #IsraelHamas #IsraelWar #MoralClarity #JewishHistory #Torah #TorahPortion #TorahLessons #torahwisdom #torahpsychology #BibleStudy #Bible #BiblicalCrticism Support the showGot your own question for Rabbi Bernath?
