Welcome to Mikvah.org's Summer Learning Series. Throughout this series, you'll hear from esteemed Rabbanim as they discuss a variety of practical halachic topics, providing clarity, perspective, and guidance on questions that arise in everyday life.In this episode, Rabbi M. Lipsker and Rabbi M. Mochkin discuss the halachic guidelines and appropriate conduct for Chassanim and Kallahs during the engagement period, including emotional and physical boundaries, healthy communication, meetings, yichud, and other interactions. They explore how to make the engagement a meaningful time of spiritual preparation and growth, while encouraging couples to seek guidance from their Chassan or Kallah teacher and Rav when questions or concerns arise.

Remembering and Forgetting: Disease, Cause, and Cure We continue with the topic of remembering and forgetting vis-à-vis Tisha B'Av and Rosh Hashanah. Now, we have to ask ourselves: how do I know if I am forgetting God? I might look like I am doing fine. If forgetting God is the disease, how do I diagnose it? The Beit HaLevi explains that the symptom of forgetting God is fear . If you are afraid, it means you have forgotten God. He brings a pasuk in Yeshayahu: "Mi at vatirei..." ("Who are you that you should fear...")—and then it says that you forgot Hashem. Hashem is not on your mind. What does that mean? This connects back to a warning in the Torah: "Lo tira" —when you go out to war, do not be afraid. Rabbeinu Yonah notes that this applies not only when going to war, but to any challenging situation that comes your way. Do not be afraid. You might ask: How can you expect me not to be afraid? That feels impossible. What does the Torah say right after that instruction? Remember what Hashem did at Yetzias Mitzrayim (the Exodus from Egypt). To give a mashal (parable): Imagine a man walking down a dangerous road. I remember during COVID walking down Ocean Parkway when a group of motorcyclists and bicyclists came by during a "defund the police" rally. There I was, wearing my kippah , walking down Ocean Parkway, and I got scared. Now, hold on. Imagine I were inside a large tank wearing a bulletproof vest, with a cannon in front of me. Would I be afraid? Of course not. So why would someone in that situation be afraid? Only because they forgot they were inside a tank! If you remember you are in a tank, you are not afraid. We all have a tank. That tank is Hakadosh Baruch Hu protecting us: השם צלך על יד ימינך ( "Hashem is your shade at your right hand." ) כי אתה השם מחסי ( "For You, Hashem, are my refuge, my protection." ) As we say in Zichronot : "L'chol hachosim bo" —to all those who find refuge in Him. We have a place of refuge. Think of historical figures or despots—like Noriega in Panama—who ran into an embassy for protection because, by international law, enemies couldn't touch them there. An embassy is a refuge. God is our refuge. But when I forget that I am inside that refuge, I become afraid. Thus, the symptom of the disease of forgetting God is fear. The Causes: Arrogance and Desire The next thing we need to understand is the cause of the disease. There are two causes: Arrogance ( Ga'avah ) Desire ( Ta'avah ) It is interesting to note that right after Tisha B'Av, in Parashat Va'etchanan , the Torah discusses forgetting God due to desire . In Parashat Ekev , it discusses forgetting God due to arrogance . What does it mean to forget God due to desire? The Torah warns that you will enter a land full of wealth—houses you didn't build, vineyards you didn't plant, and so on. You will become steeped in physical desire, and as a result, you will forget God. That is what the Sforno explains. The first mention of forgetting God in Parashat Va'etchanan is rooted in desire ( Ta'avah ). We see this same concept connected to the Churban Beit HaMikdash (Destruction of the Temple). Why did the Churban happen? The verse indicates that people were drinking wine, listening to music, and ואל פועל השם לא הביטו —they did not pay attention to the handiwork of God. If you ignore the handiwork of God and focus solely on self-indulgence, it causes you to forget Him. The Chida notes that this means they did not bless Him; Berachot are the cure for forgetting God, as we will see. So now we have three parts: The Symptom: Fear. The Causes: Arrogance and Desire. The Cure: Birkat HaMazon , Berachot , and keeping God on your mind. Regarding cause number one ( Ta'avah ): וישמן ישורון ויבעט ( "Yeshurun grew fat and kicked" ). When a person is full, they become totally self-absorbed and forget God. The Gemara says that a lion roars only when it is full. We all know that when you are running on empty—when you are hungry—you become humble. That is why we fast on Yom Kippur. Fasting brings humility. If you enter a day with a full stomach, you are not humble; but by the end of the fast, at Neilah , you are humble because you haven't eaten. The second cause—arrogance—is also very interesting to analyze. In Parashat Ekev , the scenario is different: you didn't enter a place with pre-built houses; you built the houses yourself. This refers to the second generation entering Eretz Yisrael . Interestingly, in modern America, the dynamic is often flipped: The First Generation came with nothing, worked hard, and built themselves up. Their main challenge is arrogance ( "I am a self-made man; I built this wealth" —like a Holocaust survivor who becomes a billionaire). The Second Generation is born into wealth. They didn't make a dollar themselves, so their main challenge is usually not arrogance, but desire . Because they don't have to struggle, they grow up with fancy houses, luxury cars, and expensive vacations. They are born into wealth and can easily become spoiled. Regardless, arrogance is born from success: "I made my money; I made my life." The Torah warns: ורם לבבך —your heart will become haughty from success— ושכחת —and you will forget. Arrogance and desire are the two root causes of this spiritual disease. The Antidote: Berachot The antidote provided by the Torah is: ואכלת ושבעת וברכת — "You shall eat, be satisfied, and bless." Otherwise, pen —lest you go down the path of forgetting God. The Meshech Chochmah raises a fascinating question on this verse ( V'achalta v'savata u'verachta ). The Gemara points out a contrast in halachah : For food , the biblical obligation ( d'Oraita ) to make a blessing comes after eating. For Torah study , the biblical obligation to make a blessing comes before learning. Why are they flipped? Why don't we biblically recite a beracha before eating or after learning? The Meshech Chochmah answers that the purpose of making a beracha after eating is not merely to say thank you. If it were only about expressing gratitude, as the Gemara implies, you ought to thank God even more when you are hungry and about to eat! If someone passes you a glass of water when you are dying of thirst, you say thank you right away—not just after you finish drinking. Instead, the beracha comes after eating because that is when you have just consumed physical food. After eating, a person becomes full, satisfied, and susceptible to arrogance and indulge in desire. Therefore, Birkat HaMazon acts as an immediate antidote administered after exposure to the risk. Think of it like a poison and its antidote: if someone is exposed to a poison, they must take the antidote immediately afterward, or the poison will kill them. The potential poison of desire and arrogance after a meal receives its immediate antidote through the post-meal beracha . When it comes to studying Torah, the dynamic is reversed. Before you start learning, you are not yet connected; you might approach the study with the wrong motivations or mindset. Therefore, you make a beracha beforehand to set the right intention. This explains why the Churban came about: על שלא ברכו בתורה תחילה —because they did not make a beracha over the Torah first . They lacked the right intentions. They failed to realize that learning is meant to connect them directly to God, and as a result, the Shechinah departed. The beracha must precede learning to anchor the experience. After learning, you are already connected and focused, so a biblical beracha afterwards isn't required in the same way. (Of course, Rabbinically, we now recite blessings both before eating and after learning as well). To summarize: With eating , the vulnerability to Ga'avah and Ta'avah occurs afterwards , when you are full. With learning , the vulnerability to wrong intentions occurs beforehand . Thus, Berachot serve as the system designed to cure the disease of forgetting by forcing us to remember. Conclusion: The 100 Blessings Finally, it is known that there are 98 curses listed in the Tochecha read before Rosh Hashanah. In truth, there are 100, because the text also includes unwritten misfortunes, accounting for two more. Our Sages teach that these 100 curses correspond to the 100 blessings ( Me'ah Berachot ) we are meant to recite every day. Within these 100 daily blessings, 98 are Rabbinic and 2 are Biblical ( Birkat HaMazon and Birkat HaTorah , according to many opinions). What protects us from the 100 curses are the 100 blessings: 98 Rabbinic blessings offset the 98 explicit curses, while the 2 primary Biblical mitzvot of blessing offset the 2 hidden curses. The antidote to the disease of forgetting—which brought about the curses—is the daily discipline of Berachot . A similar concept appears regarding Sheva Berachot : Seven blessings recited twice a day (at two meals) over seven days equals 49 x 2 = 98 blessings . Add the two initial blessings at the wedding itself ( Chatan v'Kallah ), and you reach 100 blessings . Those 100 Berachot shield the new couple, welcoming them into a beautiful world of continually remembering God. In summary: we have identified the disease (forgetting God), the symptom (fear), the causes (arrogance and desire), and the ultimate cure ( Berachot and mindfulness).

התוכן מנהג ישראל שכאשר רוצים לברך יהודי, מקשרים זאת עם נתינת צדקה ולימוד התורה לזכותו (כמ"ש בשו"ע שלפני הלימוד מותר להתנות שלאחר יהי' חלק בתורה שלומד). ולכן, ה"ז דבר טוב ונכון וכו' לתקן שמכאן ולהבא, כאשר מתאספים לאחל ולתת מתנות לבן/בת מצוה, לחתן-כלה וכיו"ב – שיקשרו זאת עם נתינת הצדקה ולימוד התורה לזכותם. ומצוה לפרסם. וכ"ז שייך גם לנשים: בנוגע לצדקה – הרי אדרבה, בזמננו הבעלים אכן מכניסים את הכסף אבל הכסף מונח אצל הנשים והן אחריות על ההוצאות... (הן נותנות לבעל מהכסף עבור הוצאותיו וכו'...). בנוגע ללימוד התורה: כמ"ש בשו"ע ב' הטעמים שהן מברכות ברכות התורה – 1) יש להן חלק בלימוד התורה של הבעל והילדים. 2) הן עצמן חייבות בלימוד כל ההלכות הצריכות להן. ונוסף לזה ה"ה מחוייבות בלימוד החסידות בכל פרטי', שזהו ה"דרך ארוכה וקצרה" ל"כי קרוב אליך הדבר מאוד וכו'", ועי"ז באים לאהבת ויראת ה' וכו', שגם הן מחוייבות בזה.ב' חלקים משיחת י"ט כסלו ה'תשכ"ט ל"הנחה פרטית" או התרגום ללה"ק של השיחה: https://thedailysicha.com/?date=20-08-2025 Synopsis It is a Jewish custom, when blessing another Jew, to tie it to tzedakah and Torah study on their behalf (as it says in the Shulchan Aruch: before studying Torah, it is permitted to stipulate that the study will be in someone else's merit). Therefore, it is a good and proper practice to establish that from now on, when Jews gather to offer blessings and give gifts to a Bar or Bas Mitzvah, a Chosson and Kallah etc. – it should be tied to giving tzedakah and studying Torah in their merit. It is a mitzvah to publicize this. And this applies to women too: Regarding tzedakah, we find that these days, while the husbands may be the ones who bring in the money, the spending is in the hands of the wives (in fact, their husbands come to them for money for their personal expenses etc.). Regarding Torah study: The Shulchan Aruch states two reasons why women recite the blessings over Torah study: (1) They have a share in the Torah study of their husbands and children, and (2) they themselves are obligated to learn all the halachos pertaining to the mitzvos that apply to them. In addition, women are also fully obligated in the study of Chassidus, which is the path to love and fear of Hashem etc., obligations that apply to women just as they apply to men.2 excerpts from sichah of 19 Kislev 5729 For a transcript in English of the Sicha: https://thedailysicha.com/?date=20-08-2025

The way the world functions works through women. Our world moves through seasons. Similarly, women go through different phases in their monthly cycle that correlate with the seasons of nature. As women, when we understand the way our menstrual cycle works (even in perimenopause and menopause), we are able to better understand ourselves, especially our moods, our energy levels, and our natural tendencies during different times of the month.Malka Chana Amichai, a certified Postpartum Doula, is passionate about helping women connect to their femininity. Her mission is to educate and support women to be active participants in their own life experiences. She expanded her practice to become a Prenatal Yoga instructor, a Kallah teacher who gives premarital education to brides, and a sexual health mentor. He main objective is to empower women in their womanhood and to facilitate their reconnection with the divine feminine that flows through all of us.Below are the phases of our menstrual cycle, as they correspond to each season:Menstrual Phase--Winter--just like when it's cold in the winter, we cuddle up with cozy socks and a warm blanket, and tend to stay home, during the time we are menstruating, women go inward. They want to spend more time at home; they tend to want to be by themselves; they do a lot of inner work and self-care during this time of the month.Follicular Phase--Spring--just like in the spring when the flowers start blooming, and the weather starts getting warner, women start coming out of their shell more. They tend to want to be around people a bit more than during the menstrual phase. They experience more creativity, inspiration and hope.Ovulation Phase--Summer--just like in the summer when it's hot and everything is in full bloom, women are more aroused, they want to be closer with their partner, they want to be around their friends and be much more social and outgoing. This is the phase of the month when they feel most connected to others.Post Ovulation Phase--Fall--just like the fall is the transition between summer and winter, the post period phase is an in between time for women; a type of "nowhere zone," where we feel that we're neither here nor there. This is the time when we experience higher than usual anxiety. If you are in the perimenopause or menopause phase of your life, you can still connect to your cycle through the phases of the moon. Rosh Chodesh is a women's holiday, and it's marked by the New Moon.New Moon--correlates with the menstruation phase (winter)Waxing Moon--correlates with the follicular phase (spring)Full Moon--correlates with the ovulation phase (summer)Waning Moon--correlates with the post ovulation phase (fall)Malka Chana also talks about how mothers can introduce the concept of menstruation and periods to her preteen or teenage daughter, and how mothers can transmit to them the beauty of being a woman.For more information on Malka Chana, visit her website: https://www.bohemianbalabusta.com/about-me/Vera Kessler (host of America's Top Rebbetzins) is a certified life coach.

Episode #187: The Kallah That Almost Married Choson That She Wasn't Permitted To

Hi everyone! Welcome back to another episode of The Chai on Life Podcast. I'm Alex Segal, and today we have Mrs. Devorah Kigel on the podcast! I am so excited to speak with Devorah, it really feels like a long time coming. I have known Devorah for maybe close to 11 or 12 years now and she definitely made a big impact on my own religious journey as she has for countless others speaking about her experience in the dating world and on other Jewish-related topics like her journey to becoming observant and dressing modestly.Now, Devorah is a successful dating and marriage coach (she has helped well over 300 women marry their bashert) a sought-after Kallah teacher, and continues to be a popular speaker. She holds her B.A. from Hamilton College, where she majored in French and minored in women's studies, and her M.A. in French from Middlebury College. Mrs. Kigel spent more than two years living in Paris and wrote her masters thesis on anti-Semitism in France. Devorah just released her brand new book this fall called “Marry a Mensch: Timeless Jewish Wisdom for Today's Single Woman” and in this conversation we are going to speak about all of that and more.She has been featured in Newsweek, The Jerusalem Post, Meaningful Minute, Torah Anytime and on aish.com.In the episode, we get into her journey to becoming a dating coach, have her answer real listener dating questions like what happens when you can't find someone on your exact religious level, how to know you're ready or not ready to start dating, trusting your gut, why you should never settle and more.We also speak about marriage in the latter half of the episode — the one change that has made the biggest difference in her marriage, how to create better communication, how the 5 love languages can help all of us, and more there too.Plus, at the end we get into a really interesting conversation about working versus stay at home with your kids. Devorah has spoken openly about this in the past including a time early on when their kids were young and they were going through immense financial struggle and it was really insightful to get into a deeper discussion about her choice to stay home and how it's impacted her life now. Just a disclaimer: This in no way is telling anyone what to do or how to live their life, that is a personal choice and I really believe something that is so unique to each individual situation and there is a whole spectrum in between but as a mom myself and as someone who knows many other mothers who struggle with the balance of managing so many things, it's always an interesting topic to delve into further.For more on Devorah and to get in touch with her, visit www.devorahkigel.com or on Instagram @devorahkigel.

Joel Kaplan and Shaya Levin are two extraordinary individuals living in New York. Their children were engaged to be married to one another when horrific tragedy struck.   Five years ago, Yisroel Levin and his Kallah, Elisheva Kaplan, two incredibly inspiring and growing people, were killed in a horrible car accident on Chol Hamoed Pesach. The tragedy shook the Jewish people. At their funeral, Shaya, Yisroel's father, asked that in exchange for their pure souls, we together help suggest and facilitate 10,000 shidduchim in honor of Yisroel and Elisheva, and the initiative has since led to countless shidduchim.    Joel and Shaya's pain, resilience, and insight and the legacy of Yisroel and Elisheva continue to inspire and uplift thousands worldwide. ____________________________________ ► Alpert & Associates  Need Financial Planning and Life insurance?
