Join Mark Call of Shabbat Shalom Mesa fellowship for a two-part look at parsha "Vayera," Genesis chapters 18 through 22) and the central part of the story of the first Patriarch, Abraham, from his storied 'dickering' with YHVH Himself concerning the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah, to the 'binding of Isaac,' known as 'the Akieda,' that prefigures another parallel act on that very same spot, many centuries later. It is perhaps THE "Biblical-level" Act of Faith.

Matt and Jake are back with another episode diving into a challenging but essential question: What is truly “A Hill Worth Dying On”? In this discussion, we explore what the gospel really means — not just as “good news,” but as the living message of the Kingdom of Elohim that calls us to repent, believe, and act. We look at: What the Bible actually says about the Gospel of the Kingdom How “good tidings” in the Hebrew and Greek connect to action and transformation The connection between belief, obedience, and repentance Why the gospel isn't only about salvation but about the entire Kingdom story How we, as followers of Messiah, are called to carry the gospel of peace wherever we go You'll also hear some fun personal stories, a few laughs, and deep scriptural reflection from both the Old and New Testaments — including Isaiah 61, Matthew 4:23, Mark 1:1, and 1 Peter 4:17. We end with a challenge:
Your worst days are never so bad that you are beyond the reach of God's grace. And your best days are never so good that you are beyond the need of God's grace. J. Brideges -Bible ina Year: Jeremiah 43-47 & Hebrew 5-6

Why would God restore Israel to the Land if they don't believe in Jesus? That's the question many Christians wrestle with - and the one Ezekiel 36 answers head-on. In this wide-ranging conversation with filmmaker and Bible teacher Stephen Briggs of Hatikva Films, we explore the prophetic timeline of Israel's restoration, the continuity of God's covenant with Abraham, and the flaws in replacement theology that blur the story of Scripture. Together we trace how the Hebrew nuances of Genesis 12, the promises of Ezekiel 36, and the disciples' question in Acts 1 all reveal the same truth: God's faithfulness comes before Israel's faith. Stephen shares insights from life in Jerusalem, stories from the “Blessing, Curse, or Coincidence” film series, and a clear-eyed view of what God is doing in our generation. Whether we're talking about prophecy, politics, or discipleship, the message is the same - the restoration of Israel is the greatest evidence that God keeps His promises. Key Takeaways God's covenant with Israel is unconditional and still active. Ezekiel 36 sets the divine order: regather first, renew next. Israel's unbelief magnifies God's grace, not His absence. Replacement theology collapses when read against Scripture's storyline. Modern Israel's return is the stage for future spiritual renewal. Believers are invited to pray, comfort, give, and go. God's faithfulness to Israel confirms His faithfulness to us. Chapter Markers 00:00 – Cold open + welcome 02:10 – Introducing Stephen Briggs: filmmaker, Jerusalem resident 07:35 – God's faithfulness and the modern return of Israel 13:20 – Genesis 12 and the Hebrew meaning of “bless” and “curse” 18:55 – Ezekiel 36: the order of restoration and renewal 26:40 – The flaw in replacement theology 33:25 – The “Israel Effect” and history's witness 39:45 – Acts 1: the disciples' question and God's timeline 47:10 – Practical response: pray, comfort, give, go 52:00 – Closing reflections and resources If you've never seen the Bible in full color, it's time to walk the ancient paths yourself.

Sunday Service (11/2/25) // Revelation 9:1-11 (ESV) The Seven Angels1 And the fifth angel blew his trumpet, and I saw a star fallen from heaven to earth, and he was given the key to the shaft of the bottomless pit.[a] 2 He opened the shaft of the bottomless pit, and from the shaft rose smoke like the smoke of a great furnace, and the sun and the air were darkened with the smoke from the shaft. 3 Then from the smoke came locusts on the earth, and they were given power like the power of scorpions of the earth. 4 They were told not to harm the grass of the earth or any green plant or any tree, but only those people who do not have the seal of God on their foreheads. 5 They were allowed to torment them for five months, but not to kill them, and their torment was like the torment of a scorpion when it stings someone. 6 And in those days people will seek death and will not find it. They will long to die, but death will flee from them.7 In appearance the locusts were like horses prepared for battle: on their heads were what looked like crowns of gold; their faces were like human faces, 8 their hair like women's hair, and their teeth like lions' teeth; 9 they had breastplates like breastplates of iron, and the noise of their wings was like the noise of many chariots with horses rushing into battle. 10 They have tails and stings like scorpions, and their power to hurt people for five months is in their tails. 11 They have as king over them the angel of the bottomless pit. His name in Hebrew is Abaddon, and in Greek he is called Apollyon.[b]12 The first woe has passed; behold, two woes are still to come.Footnotesa. Revelation 9:1 Greek the abyss; also verses 2, 11b.

In ancient times, names were much more significant than they are today. They were carefully chosen, and were sometimes conferred by God himself. Names were descriptive of a person's lineage, character, and in some cases even his destiny. Likewise, God applies a variety of Hebrew names and titles to Himself because He wants us to know more about His character, nature, and attributes.

In this Friday Thinking Talmudist episode on Talmud Bava Metzia 84b, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe explores the extraordinary life and legacy of Rebbe Elazar ben Rebbe Shimon, a sage whose body remained undecayed in his attic for 18–22 years after death due to his unparalleled righteousness—his vessel solely for Torah and mitzvot, not worldly indulgence. The Talmud recounts how his absence as community marshal prevented women from receiving halachic rulings on purity, halting procreation, echoing stories like Rav Moshe Feinstein's eight-year childless period without a mikvah. Rebbe Elazar's wife observed blood when hairs fell and a worm from his ear, which he explained in a dream as minor punishment for once failing to protest slander against Torah scholars, teaching the grave obligation to defend the righteous and halt lashon hara—worse for the listener who enables its spread than the speaker.The narrative highlights Rebbe Elazar's posthumous miracles: a heavenly voice from the attic resolved disputes, interpreted as divine inspiration guiding just settlements; his unburied body protected the city from wild animals; and a serpent guarded his father's cave until burial. Parallels include the Gaon of Vilna's perfectly preserved body and the Chafetz Chaim's gravesite preventing miscarriages, underscoring burial's sanctity over cremation, which denies body-soul reunion at resurrection. Rabbi Wolbe passionately advocates for tahara (purification rites) by the Chevra Kadisha as a profound mitzvah, preparing the deceased for heavenly judgment, and recommends Rabbi Doron Kornbluth's book Cremation or Burial? for spiritual and environmental insights.Ultimately, the Gemara contrasts Rebbe Elazar's humility and self-imposed suffering to spare Jewish pain with Rebbe Shimon ben Gamaliel's self-description as a "lion son of a fox," proving true anavah (humility) among greats like the Bnei Beteira and Yonatan ben Shaul. Rabbi Wolbe ties this to defending Torah scholars amid Israel's yeshiva draft debates—spiritual pillars merit protection like Pharaoh exempted learners—urging pride in Judaism as Rosh Hashanah approaches, crowning Hashem as eternal King with majesty far surpassing earthly royalty._____________The Thinking Talmudist Podcast shares select teachings of Talmud in a fresh, insightful and meaningful way. Many claim that they cannot learn Talmud because it is in ancient Aramaic or the concepts are too difficult. Well, no more excuses. In this podcast you will experience the refreshing and eye-opening teachings while gaining an amazing appreciation for the divine wisdom of the Torah and the depths of the Talmud._____________This Podcast Series is Generously Underwritten by David & Susan MarbinRecorded at TORCH Meyerland in the Levin Family Studios to a live audience on September 19, 2025, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on November 7, 2025_____________Listen, Subscribe & Share: Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/thinking-talmudist-podcast-rabbi-aryeh-wolbe/id1648951154Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0cZ7q9bGYSBYSPQfJvwgzmShare your questions at aw@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.

In this second episode on understanding Kaddish from the Prayer Podcast series, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe explores the ancient prayer's origins, composed in Aramaic by the Men of the Great Assembly during the Babylonian exile. Kaddish serves to bring "Hashem awareness" into the lower worlds, bypassing angelic interference since angels don't understand Aramaic. Originally just a half-Kaddish recited seven times daily by the prayer leader, it has expanded to include versions for mourners, siyum completions, and gravesides. The core purpose is Kiddush Hashem—sanctifying God's name—ranging from ultimate martyrdom (like Rebbe Akiva or Rabbi Elchanan Wasserman) to everyday acts of prioritizing God's will over personal desires, such as reciting Kaddish or making Kiddush on Shabbos.Kaddish acts as a spiritual elevator between the four kabbalistic worlds: Asiyah (action, morning blessings), Yetzirah (formation, Pesukei Dezimra), Beriah (creation, Shema blessings), and Atzilus (emanation, Amidah). It solidifies God's presence in each world before transitioning, with no Kaddish between Beriah and Atzilus to avoid interrupting redemption and prayer. Responding with full intent to "Amen, Yehei Shemei Rabba" can nullify heavenly decrees by restoring sanctity removed through sin. The prayer's structure magnifies God's name across all worlds, with congregational responses affirming redemption, peace, and Mashiach's arrival. Numerical symbolism abounds: four opening words reflect God's four-letter name, 10 words spell it out further, and 28 letters/words equal "koach" (strength), emphasizing empowerment through praise.Ultimately, Kaddish empowers every individual to achieve greatness by bringing godliness into daily life, congregations, and the world. Rabbi Wolbe emphasizes retraining ourselves to respond with focus, turning routine recitations into acts of profound devotion. The episode concludes with a teaser for next week's dive into Pesukei Dezimra, the verses of praise that "prune" spiritual blockages._____________This Podcast Series is Generously Underwritten by Dr. Leonard & June GoldbergDownload the Prayer Podcast Worksheets:https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1iBVevW1ydyjSeyeO0iCcina7e8vix3Lt?usp=sharingThis episode (Ep. #41) of the Prayer Podcast by Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe of TORCH is dedicated to my dearest friends, Dr. Leonard & June Goldberg!

News and commentary for Thursday, 6 November, 2025.
The 'elections' this week reiterated some things that a number of Black-robed Priests of the Adversary have been making clear for some time now: the Deep State isn't about to let the "will of the people" destroy all their "Beautiful Wickedness." But it isn't that Scripture hasn't been clear on that subject all along. Host Mark Call puts it this way: "The Remnant does NOT Win Elections" Which means the path ahead for His People is still clear.
David Justice and Mark Call discuss the major news of the week.

Abraham was the paragon of faith. He was also the paragon of kindness and hospitality. When he was 99 years old and only three days removed from a very painful and debilitating circumcision surgery, Abraham launched into a frenzied act of superlative hospitality to three travelers (who later turned out to be angels). These twin attributes worked synergistically. Abraham used his hospitality to advance his lifelong mission of disseminating the Name of God in the world and publicizing the Name of God to all. The Parsha is studded with other iconic episodes and narratives: Abraham's intercession on behalf of the sinners of Sodom and Gomorrah; Lot's kindness in Sodom and Gomorrah; the overturning of those cities and the rendering of Mrs. Lot into a pillar of salt; Lot's incestuous tryst with his daughters spawning the forbearer of Messiah; the birth and maturation of Isaac; the banishment of Ishmael; and of course, the Binding of Isaac.

Episode 21 of the Ask Away series addresses diverse questions on kosher laws, Jewish practices, and spiritual growth, emphasizing practical application and Torah sourcing. Recorded post-Sukkot, the session encourages questioning to deepen understanding. Key themes include:Kosher Laws: Blood is forbidden (Leviticus 17:11), requiring precise kashering (soaking, salting, rinsing). Glass vessels' non-absorptive nature will be clarified later. Pre-kashered meat doesn't need re-kashering when cut, and chicken hearts require special preparation (cutting, rinsing, salting). Contaminated water undermines kashering, necessitating clean water (0:42–25:27).Animal Welfare: Hunting is not Jewish; kosher animals are confined for painless slaughter (shechita). Esau's hunting skill (aided by Adam's garments) was exceptional but not normative, as Jews avoid tza'ar ba'alei chaim (5:31–9:42).Health and Hygiene: Sick animals are non-kosher due to defects (e.g., cancer), requiring post-slaughter inspection. Cockroaches can be removed on Shabbat without killing, and hand-washing reflects halachic hygiene awareness (13:24–24:29).Happiness and Gratitude: Marriage fosters selflessness, per Yevamot 62b, paralleling God's giving. Reciting 100 daily blessings cultivates gratitude, preventing entitlement. Ungrateful children given everything become miserable, unlike those earning rewards (27:06–33:14).Teshuva and Past: Embracing one's past, even with trauma, fuels teshuva and growth. Gratitude prevents “stealing” from oneself the chance to connect with Hashem (35:42–38:31).Marriage and Responsibility: Constant love and selflessness in marriage mirror God's giving. Stories of Rav Scherer and Senator Lieberman highlight prioritizing home duties, reinforcing marriage's role in personal growth (39:17–46:38).Please submit your questions at askaway@torchweb.org_____________The Everyday Judaism Podcast is dedicated to learning, understanding and appreciating the greatness of Jewish heritage and the Torah through the simplified, concise study of Halacha, Jewish Law, thereby enhancing our understanding of how Hashem wants us to live our daily lives in a Jewish way._____________This Podcast Series is Generously Underwritten by Marshall & Doreen LernerDownload & Print the Everyday Judaism Halacha Notes:https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1RL-PideM42B_LFn6pbrk8MMU5-zqlLG5This episode (Ep. #71) of the Everyday Judaism Podcast by Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe of TORCH is dedicated to my dearest friends, Marshall & Doreen Lerner!

News and commentary for Wednesday, 5 November, 2025.
By Rabbi Josh WanderThere is a painful and uncomfortable reality that we rarely speak about publicly:Nearly one million Israelis have left Eretz Yisrael to live in the Diaspora.Not because of pogroms.Not because of famine.Not because they were expelled.They chose to leave.They walked away from the one thing that generations before us would have given their lives for: the privilege of living in the Land of Israel.And this can only happen in a vacuum — a vacuum of education, a vacuum of emunah, and a vacuum of understanding the true value of Eretz Yisrael. When someone does not know what something is worth, it becomes very easy to trade away.Creatures of Comfort, Prisoners of ExileMany of these Israelis are “successful” abroad. They live in modern suburbs, earn comfortable salaries, eat in kosher restaurants, and send their children to schools with Hebrew signs on the walls.Some are even “religious.”But spiritually, they have moved from Geula (redemption) to Galut (exile).From light to darkness.From open skies to a tunnel.Choosing exile over Israel is like voluntarily crawling into the spiritual equivalent of a Hamas tunnel — darkness, disorientation, disconnection.It is a self-imposed spiritual prison.They convince themselves that their “spirituality is more uplifting” in New York, Miami, or Los Angeles.What a perversion.How twisted our values have become that we equate kosher supermarkets, valet parking, and kiddush clubs with spirituality.Do We Know Better Than Hashem?Let's ask the only question that matters:If Avraham Avinu and Sara Imeinu were told by Hashem to leave Charan and move to Canaan, would they respond:“Actually, Hashem, our ruchniyut is better here. The housing market is cheaper and the shuls are more comfortable”?Absurd.Yet today, many Jews speak this way.Not explicitly — but this is the core of their argument:“I know Hashem said Eretz Yisrael is our home,but I know better what's best for me and my family.”Chutzpah.Ignorance.Hashem gave us 613 mitzvot. Nearly one-third can only be performed in the Land. How can a thinking, believing Jew read the Torah and still say:“It's better for my neshamah to stay in exile.”The Intellectual Justifications and the Halachic AcrobaticsOf course, excuses always need footnotes.So we hear:* “The Satmar Shitta says the Three Oaths forbid returning before Moshiach.”* “Rav Moshe Feinstein wrote that aliyah isn't obligatory today.”* “Tosafot says due to danger one may stay in exile.”All true — in context.Yet deeply misunderstood and conveniently misused.Even Satmar Chassidim weep over Eretz Yisrael.Even Rav Moshe Feinstein praised the holiness of the Land.None of them said:“Exile is a spiritually superior environment. Stay there for comfort.”For thousands of years, our rabbis begged, prayed, and sacrificed to reach this Land. They endured malaria-infested swamps, starvation, and Ottoman decrees.Not for comfort.For covenant.They understood what we have forgotten:Comfort is not the goal of Judaism. Destiny is.The Real Price: Their ChildrenLet us speak plainly.For the “religious diaspora Jew,” the loss is spiritual blindness.But for the vast majority who leave?It is nothing less than a demographic suicide mission.In Israel:* Intermarriage rate: ~4%In the United States:* Intermarriage rate: 70–90%That means that in America, one generation later,your grandchildren may not be Jewish.Nobody “plans” for assimilation, yet it swallows entire family trees.Leaving Eretz Yisrael puts your children into the currents of history — currents that have erased millions of Jews before them.No Israeli parent moving abroad ever says:“I'm choosing to end my family's Jewish story.”But statistically, that is exactly what they are doing.Kosher-Style Judaism Is Not JudaismThose who leave often say:“We will stay religious abroad. Judaism is not tied to geography.”False.Judaism is born in a place.Rooted in a place.Fulfilled in a place.Eretz Yisrael is not a backdrop.It is a commandment.לא בשמיים היא — It is not in the heavens.It's right here. In the Torah. In every parsha.From Lech Lecha to Ki Tavo.You don't need a PhD to understand the Torah's geography.Only a willingness to listen.The Darkness of Egypt — ReplayedThe Midrash teaches that 80% of Jews never left Egypt.They chose to stay — and they died during the plague of darkness.They disappeared from Jewish destiny.Today, the parallel is clear.We are living in spiritual darkness.Exile is the darkness.Israel is the light.Every Jew today is being asked:Will you join the redemption — or remain behind?Conclusion: The Door Is Still OpenThe tragedy of the yordim is not only that they leave.It's that they don't know what they're leaving.The greatest generation in Jewish history — ours — is living with the opportunity that our ancestors would have given their lives to taste for one hour.The door to redemption is open.The gates of Eretz Yisrael are open.The only question is:Will we walk through them?Or will we choose to remain in the darkness of a self-imposed exile?

In this episode, A Nation Tailored in Fire, I explore a powerful teaching from Rav Avigdor Miller about how Hashem created the Jewish people with a fiery nature—stubborn, passionate, and relentless—and then gave us a fiery Torah perfectly suited to that design. Each mitzvah acts like a custom-made suit, shaping and channeling that inner fire toward holiness instead of letting it burn out of control. Our very nature, which can seem difficult or defiant, was intentionally crafted for greatness. By the end of this episode, you'll see how the Torah wasn't given to restrain the Jewish spirit—it was given to refine it and reveal its divine strength.Join the Conversation!

There are different takes on the exact meaning of the temple Ezekiel sees in today's passage, some say it is symbolic, others heavenly, while others take note of it's cross-shaped floor plan. Here's what we know. First, it was never built. Second, this passage is the longest recording of a revelation in Scripture and it gives very specific dimensions for a temple design with measurements that differ from the original temple. Third, in the original Hebrew, the measurements are in cubits and multiples of 5 and 25 abound; and this vision takes place after 25 years in exile. Fourth, but certainly not finally, other than Moses, Ezekiel is the only person in the Old Testament to receive and transmit specific legislation directly from God.Ezekiel 39 - 1:08 .

In this episode , we delve into the Sermon on the Mount, specifically focusing on the Beatitudes. We explore the concept of true happiness and blessedness as spoken by Jesus, contrasting it with worldly pursuits of happiness. The episode examines how Jesus addresses the universal human desire for joy and fulfillment, offering a counter-intuitive path to lasting happiness rooted in spiritual poverty, meekness, and righteousness.Support the showRead along with us in the Bible Brief App!

In this episode of the Jewish Inspiration Podcast, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe continues discussing the Orchos Tzaddikim (Ways of the Righteous) on day 102, focusing on the Gate of Remembrance. He emphasizes daily reflections to maximize joy and happiness. The fifth remembrance highlights God's mercy in granting the Torah, which invites study, questioning, and discourse—unlike a king's letter that might provoke offense if queried. This gift encourages a pursuit of truth through endless exploration and debate.The sixth remembrance urges individuals to examine if any part of their body has transgressed divine commands, while observing how all of God's creations faithfully fulfill their purposes. Examples include animals like donkeys and horses performing their roles without complaint, the sun shining relentlessly for millennia, and ocean waves respecting their boundaries. Rabbi Wolbe shares a personal anecdote from a solar eclipse in Athens, Tennessee, where daytime turned to night, prompting crickets to chirp, illustrating the precision of creation. He warns against misusing bodily organs meant for godly pursuits, such as eyes for Torah study or mouths for holy speech.The seventh remembrance compares humanity to a servant cared for by a benevolent master, fostering gratitude and humility. One should avoid arrogance or rebellion against God, recognizing life's mission to serve Him.

Have you ever worried that following God might take you somewhere you don't want to go, or that you wouldn't be able to keep up if you tried?In Psalm 23:3b, David writes, “He guides me in the paths of righteousness for His name's sake.” The Hebrew word nachah means to guide, to govern, to lead forth. It's not just about pointing out the path. It's about walking with us, rerouting us when we wander, and strengthening us to keep moving forward.Here's what you'll hear in this week's episode:What synonyms and antonyms of “guide” reveal about God's trustworthy leadershipHow translations like The Passion Translation and The Voice paint vivid pictures of God steering us off worn, hard paths and into places of life and beautyInsights from commentaries, including the reminder that obedience isn't about knowing every option, it's about staying close to the ShepherdTony Evans' GPS comparison and what it means for God to lovingly reroute usThe characteristics of God revealed in this verse: Guide, Righteous, Strong TowerAngie's story of preparing for a young woman's funeral and how God miraculously guided her, not because she figured it out, but because He was faithfulGrab your FREE Step By Step Starter KitThis week's study guide, plus everything you need to follow along through December, is inside!

Welcome to the wonderful world of the five levels of pleasure! We explore the difference between comfort and pleasure and how one is meant to being a focus on the pleasures Hashem has given us to enjoy in this world.
Eugene Peterson says, "For Isaiah words are watercolors and melodies and chisels to make truth, and beauty and goodness. Or as the case may be hammers and swords and scalpels to unmake sin, guilt and rebellion. He creates visions, delivers revelation, arouses belief. Isaiah is the supreme poet prophet to come out of the Hebrew people." The characteristic name for God in Isaiah is "The Holy." For Isaiah, Holiness is a furnace that transforms the men and women who enter it. Come join us as we take in the "Salvation Symphony" of Judgment (chapters 1-39), Comfort (chapters 40-55) and Hope (chapters 56-66).
On the two-year Hebrew anniversary of October 7, Rabbi Zauzmer invites us to consider the trauma that prompts us to create our world anew.
