Sivan 5785

התוכן [המשך] וההוראה: לפעמים מחליטים בתוקף לקיים רצון ה' ולא להתפעל מהעולם, אך כשהדברים באים בפועל ורואים הקושי שבדבר – מרגישים חלישות ורוצים "לברוח". צריכים לדעת שאין ליהודי ליפול ברוחו אלא להאחז ברצון ה', ובודאי ישלימו כל המלחמות בנצחון גדול; פעולת המרגלים שיתחרטו ולא ירצו לילך לא"י – לא היתה על הנשים שאמרו שאינן פוחדות, ועוד תבעו ודרשו "תנה לנו אחוזה"! כי אם ה' רוצה שילכו למקום נסיונות – צריך לעשותו! וההוראה: ישנם גברים שבצאתם "לרחוב" כדי לפעול שאלקות תהי' ניכרת שם ורואים את הנסיונות הכרוכות בזה, נרתעים ו"בורחים". על הנשים להראות את הדוגמא שלא נרתעים אלא מחליטים לקיים שליחות ה'. וזהו גם הוראה וחיזוק לאלו שעומדות להתמסר להדרכת ילדי ישראל במשך הקיץ, שתכליתה היא "כיבוש" עוד סביבה ועוד ילד יהודי לעשותם "ארץ ישראל" – שבודאי יעמדו בכל הנסיונות, ושליחות זו עוד תרומם אותן ואת המודרכים/כות.משיחת יום א' פ' שלח, כ"ף סיון ה'תשכ"ה, להתלמידות המסיימות ד"בית רבקה" ולהמדריכות דמחנה "אמונה" תחיינה ל"הנחה פרטית" או התרגום ללה"ק של השיחה: https://thedailysicha.com/?date=16-06-2025 Synopsis (Continued.) Sometimes a person firmly resolves to fulfill Hashem's will and to not be deterred by the world, but when it comes to actuality they feel weakened and want to run away from it. The lesson from the story of the spies is that a Jew should not lose heart, but should rather cling to Hashem's will, and then he will surely emerge from all the battles with a great victory. Additionally: the spies' report only impacted the men, in contrast to the women, who were still willing to go to Eretz Yisroel, and who asked and demanded, “Give us a portion.” The lesson is that it is up the women to set an example, by not being deterred, and by resolving to fulfill Hashem's mission to transform the land, making Hashem visible even there. This is also a lesson and source of encouragement for those preparing to spend their summer as counselors guiding Jewish children: the goal is to “conquer” yet another Jewish child and another environment, and transform it into “Eretz Yisroel.” Not only will this not bring them down, but to the contrary: they, and those under their guidance, will be lifted up.Excerpt from sichah of Sunday, parashas Shelach, 20 Sivan 5725, to the graduating students of Bais Rivkah and counselors of Camp Emunah For a transcript in English of the Sicha: https://thedailysicha.com/?date=16-06-2025 לע"נ הרב יהודה קלמן ב"ר אברהם יהושע ע"ה מארלומרא דאתרא וחבר בד"ץ דשכונת "כאן צוה ה' את הברכה", קראון הייטסליום היארצייט שלו כ' סיון. ת.נ.צ.ב.ה.

התוכן בסיפור המרגלים שמשה שלח לתור את א"י מתעוררת השאלה – משה, בתור מנהיג אמיתי של בנ"י (ונולד לכך), ובפרט באותה תקופה, הכיר היטב את בנ"י, ואיך יתכן שלא יכיר ח"ו שאלו שנבחרו אינם מתאימים לשליחות זו?! רש"י מבאר ש"אותה שעה כשרים היו". אך לפי"ז מתעוררת השאלה מה גרם לכך שלאחרי ש"ויעלו ויתורו את הארץ" נבהלו והניאו את בנ"י מלילך לא"י?! והרי כבר ידעו לפנ"ז על הל"א מלכים שנמצאים בא"י וכו'? ויובן עפ"י מ"ש אדה"ז בלקו"ת שדוקא מצד היותם "אנשים כשרים" סברו שמוטב לישאר במדבר פרושים ומובדלים מהעולם ויוכלו ללמוד תורה ולקיים מצוות ללא הפרעות, ולא לילך לא"י ששם יצטרכו להתעסק בעניני העולם, חרישת שדות וניהול מסחר וכו' (חטאם הי' שלא היו חדורים בהכרה שאם הקב"ה מצווה לילך לא"י – צריך ללכת!) ואף שמ"מ היו מוכנים לכך, שלכן בחר בהם משה – אבל כאשר באו לא"י וראו במו עיניהם את הנסיונות הצפויים ו"אינה דומה שמיעה לראי׳" – נרתעו [המשך יבוא].משיחת יום א' פ' שלח, כ"ף סיון ה'תשכ"ה, להתלמידות המסיימות ד"בית רבקה" ולהמדריכות דמחנה "אמונה" תחיינה ל"הנחה פרטית" או התרגום ללה"ק של השיחה: https://thedailysicha.com/?date=15-06-2025 Synopsis The question arises in the story of the spies: As a true leader of the Jewish people (who was born to lead them, and who by this time had already lived with them and led them in practice), Moshe surely knew the characteristics and thought processes of the Jewish people; how then is it possible that he failed to recognize, G-d forbid, that the spies he chose were unfit for the mission? While Rashi explains that “at that time, they were virtuous,” that raises another question: After they “went up and scouted the land,” what caused them to become frightened, and to dissuade the people from going to Eretz Yisroel? After all, they already knew about the thirty-one kings etc. beforehand? We can understand this based on the Alter Rebbe's explanation in Likkutei Torah that precisely because they were “virtuous,” they thought it was preferable to remain in the desert, separated and removed from the world, so they could learn Torah and do mitzvos without disturbance, rather than go to Eretz Yisroel where they would have to be involved in worldly matters like plowing fields and running businesses etc. Although they were initially prepared to do it – which is why Moshe chose them – when they came to Eretz Yisroel and actually saw the challenges that lay ahead with their own eyes, they were deterred, because “Hearing is not like seeing.” (To be continued.)Excerpt from sichah of Sunday, parashas Shelach, 20 Sivan 5725, to the graduating students of Bais Rivkah and counselors of Camp Emunah For a transcript in English of the Sicha: https://thedailysicha.com/?date=15-06-2025

"If someone tells you there is Torah by the Goyim don't believe them. If they tell you there is wisdom by the Goyim, believe them." What is this wisdom and does it originate from the Torah or is it something else entirely?

Parshas Behaalosecha: Always Been Home What does it really mean to belong? Our Parsha begins with Aharon lighting the Menorah, its flame a symbol of constant connection. Then, the Torah introduces something unexpected: if a convert wants to bring the Korban Pesach, “there shall be one law—for the convert and for the native.” But why say this here? What does Pesach Sheni have to do with someone who wasn't there the first time? Rashi says it's to make clear: a convert is not a guest. They're family. But the Ohr HaChaim goes further—teaching that every soul who would one day choose G-d was already part of the Exodus. They weren't late. They were always part of the story. This episode explores a powerful idea: You didn't miss your chance. You've been part of this journey all along. Every spark, even the hidden ones, were carried out of Egypt. If you've ever questioned whether you belong, or whether your journey started too late—this one's for you.

Parshas Naso: Back from Beyond Our Parsha begins with the transport duties of the Leviim, followed by the laws of the Sotah and the Nazir. But suddenly, the Torah circles back to a topic we've already seen: the Metzora, the person cast out of all three camps due to spiritual impurity. Why revisit this now? Coming off Shavuos, we carry that message with us: the Torah belongs to each of us, wherever we stand, and the journey back always begins with one step forward. In honor of Eretz Yisroel. May G-d protect our brave soldiers. May G-d return all the hostages in Gaza immediately. Dedicated in loving memory of Edward Ben Efraim, Shlomo Ben Edward, and Yirachmiel Daniel Ben Gedalia. For the Refuah Shlema of Pennina Bas Shoshanna Miriam and all those in need of healing. Listen now at ParshaPerspective.com

How and why the flags which Klal Yisroel wanted represent their desire to fulfill their "shlichus."

We are Torah. And Torah is us.

Why do Jews get expelled from their land? Where does the holiness of Eretz Yisroel come from? Rebbe Nachman teaches us…

Although widely accepted nowadays, the Zohar's acceptance came along with more controversy than you might expect.

The Lag BaOmer Perspective: Fire From Within Lag BaOmer begins in darkness—the plague that claimed Rabbi Akiva's students and Rabbi Shimon bar Yochai's years in hiding—but ends in brilliance. We light bonfires not merely for celebration, but to honor the inner blaze that emerges when faith refuses to dim. Rabbi Akiva's humility sparked a fire that could break stone, and Rabbi Shimon's unwavering commitment transformed exile into revelation. This episode explores how true light is forged in silence and struggle, and how each of us can carry that flame into the world. 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. For the Refuah Shlema of Pennina Bas Shoshanna Miriam and all who need healing. Listen now at ParshaPerspective.com

In the classic song of Bar Yochai there is a line which translates to "when Hashem thought to make Man, he envisioned you (Rebbi Shimon)"—what was it about Rebbi Shimon Bar Yochai which made him worthy of such a compliment?

Parshas Acharei Mos & Kedoshim: Holiness Through Habit What does it mean to live a holy life? This week's Parsha shows us that holiness isn't found in grand gestures—it's shaped by the small, consistent choices we make each day. The Ramban calls Shabbos the anchor of Jewish faith. The Ohr HaChaim teaches that holiness begins in the quiet moments—in the atmosphere we build, in the values we live. In honor of Eretz Yisroel. May G-d protect our brave soldiers and return all the hostages. In loving memory of Edward Ben Efraim, Shlomo Ben Edward, and Yirachmiel Daniel Ben Gedalia. For the Refuah Shlema of Pennina Bas Shoshanna Miriam. Listen now at ParshaPerspective.com

Parshas Tazria & Metzora: Restoring the Soul In honor of Eretz Yisroel. May G-d protect our brave soldiers. May G-d return all the hostages in Gaza immediately. Dedicated in loving memory of Edward Ben Efraim, Shlomo Ben Edward, and Yirachmiel Daniel Ben Gedalia. For the Refuah Shlema of Pennina Bas Shoshanna Miriam and all those in need of healing. These Parshas guide us through the laws of ritual purity and the spiritual transformation of the Metzora. But the Torah's path to healing begins not with words—but with items: cedar wood, hyssop, crimson yarn, and birds. What do these symbolize, and why are they essential to restoration?

Send us a textSpecial thanks to Women of Iron Unite for making this episode possible. Founded on October 10th amid the pain of Operation Iron Sword, three courageous women from Crown Heights united to protect Eretz Yisroel by inspiring prayer, unity, and tznius within our community. Organized by Sarale Blau, Rivky Perl, and Ruthie Sperlin, their initiative continues to empower women to take small steps toward growth and holiness even in challenging times.Modesty (tznius) is one of the most sensitive, often misunderstood topics in the Jewish world. It's not just about clothing—it's about identity, confidence, dignity, and connection to something deeper. In this thought-provoking episode of From the Inside Out, we sit down with two incredible guests: Rivky Slonim, a powerhouse in Jewish education, and Joyce Azria, former fashion executive turned modesty advocate. Together, we unravel the layers of tznius—why it's challenging, what it truly means beyond fabric and rules, and how it can be a source of empowerment rather than restriction.Joyce shares her journey from the high-fashion world to embracing modesty, revealing the unexpected luxury and confidence it brings. Rivka offers profound insights on what tznius really is (hint: it's NOT just about covering up) and how it's deeply tied to self-respect, spirituality, and personal growth. We also explore topics like navigating modesty in professional spaces, finding joy in mitzvos even when they feel hard, and how to inspire the next generation without force or judgment.Rivkah Slonim is the Associate Director at the Chabad Center for Jewish Student Life at Binghamton University. An internationally known teacher, lecturer, and activist, she travels widely, addressing the intersection of traditional Jewish observance and contemporary life, with a special focus on Jewish women in Jewish law and life. Slonim is the editor of Total Immersion: A Mikvah Anthology and Bread and Fire; Jewish Women find God in the Everyday. Slonim and her husband are the grateful and proud parents of nine children. You can find more from Rivky Slonim here: https://www.chabad.org/search/keyword_cdo/kid/1328/jewish/Rivkah-Slonim.htmJoyce Azria is a fashion and wellness entrepreneur, formerly the Creative Director of BCBGeneration and founder of Avec Les Filles and Amazon's ROHB. Daughter of the late Max Azria, she grew up in “fashion royalty,” but her journey from Chanel to Shabbat reshaped her approach—shifting from creating value-driven brands to leading with her values as an Orthodox Jewish woman. Now co-founder of The Healer's Collection, Joyce shares her passion, spirituality, and rich experiences to inspire audiences nationwide. She lives in Miami, Florida, with her children.
