Podcasts about Ki Tavo

Batya Ungar-Sargon shares Netziv commentaries on the parsha. These sessions are held on Zoom every week in memory of our mother in-law whose dedication to the Netziv (her great great grandfather), was legendary. It is estimated she studied the Ha'amek Davar some 78 times throughout her life, devoting every Tuesday to its study. May her memory be a blessing to her family and klal Yisroel.

Parasha Ki TavoWanneer je komt in het land. De levensreis van de mens gaat van de Twee naar de Eén. Bo - komen of brengen. Op weg naar het vaderland. Vaders land. Een land dat overvloeit van melk en honing. Dat is de Eén. Dat is de plek waar God alles is en in allen. En zolang je daar nog niet bent, ben je uitlandig. Ellendig. Buiten het land.  Israël, het volk van God, maakte deze reis letterlijk toen het van Egypte naar Kanaän reisde. Want de getalswaarden van Egypte – Mitsraïm (380) en van Kanaän (190) verhouden zich als 2:1. Mitsraïm betekent ook dubbele verdrukking. Daar zit de tweeheid in. Israël is de houder van het eerstgeboorterecht onder de volken, net als Adam. Tot haar zullen de volken komen.  Het land Kanaän is Vaders land en het is hen door de Eeuwige als een erfelijk bezit beloofd. Zij mogen dat in bezit nemen. Zij zullen dat ook in bezit nemen.Dat zegt de mitswah voor het brengen van de eerste van alle vruchten van het land. Gebracht in een korf - een teni. Hoe is in Deut. 26-1-11 de Messias verborgen?

In this episode of the Parsha Review Podcast, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe explores Parshas Nitzavim, which always precedes Rosh Hashanah, emphasizing the theme of standing before Hashem in judgment, as highlighted in Deuteronomy 29:9, where "Atem Nitzavim" (you are standing) signals the collective accountability of all Israel. He notes the deliberate separation from the 98 curses in the prior portion (Ki Tavo), described as "100 minus 2" to avoid proximity to Rosh Hashanah, including sins like cursing parents or misleading the vulnerable. Rabbi Wolbe shares a story of the Chose of Lublin advising a sinner to commit to truth as repentance, illustrating how truth, reflected in the rearranged letters of "Atem" to form "Emet" (truth), aligns one with Hashem's essence, as affirmed in the Shema's declaration of Hashem as truth. He explains that truth, distinct from beauty in the 15 praises following Shema (from "Emet" to "beautiful"), is powerful yet not always pleasant, requiring careful delivery to avoid harm, as exemplified by Moshe's gentle reprimands and personal anecdotes about sensitive truth-telling. Rabbi Wolbe connects this to the introspective preparation for Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur, urging listeners to confront their true selves in the mirror, as inspired by a friend's transformative moment of self-awareness in recovery, to recognize their potential and responsibility to live purposefully, aligning with Hashem's belief in their unique contribution to the world._____________This episode (Ep 7.47) of the Parsha Review Podcast by Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe on Parshas Nitzavim is dedicated in honor of our Holy Soldiers in the Battlefield and our Torah Scholars in the Study Halls who are fighting for the safety of our nation!Download & Print the Parsha Review Notes:https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1ncaRyoH5iJmGGoMZs9y82Hz2ofViVouv?usp=sharingRecorded at TORCH Meyerland in the Levin Family Studios (B) to a live audience on September 16, 2025, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on September 17, 2025_____________Subscribe: Apple Podcasts (https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/parsha-review-podcast-rabbi-aryeh-wolbe/id1651930083)Spotify (https://open.spotify.com/show/22lv1kXJob5ZNLaAl6CHTQ) to stay inspired! Share your questions at awolbe@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.  To directly send your questions, comments, and feedback: awolbe@torchweb.org_____________Support Our Mission:Help us share Jewish wisdom globally by sponsoring an episode at torchweb.org.

R. Marcus Rubenstein's sermon on parshat Ki Tavo, delivered on September 13th, 2025 at Temple of Aaron Shabbat morning services.

We discuss blessings and curses in our lives and in this parsha. We didn't mention the fruit offerings, but Briyah's favorite fruit is passion fruit.Life is full of passion at the moment! How are you landing during this sacred time on earth?

Ramban on the Torah | 5785 | 39 | Ki Tavo, by Rav Eli Weber How do we show gratitude to Hashem? How do we deal with failure in Avodat Hashem?

Rabbi Stiel and parashat Ki Tavo

On the occasion of the Shabbat recognizing our outgoing and incoming Board of Governors Rabbi Flanzraich reflects on how Jews live which comes to explain why we are the way we are.

Parsha "Ki Tavo" (Deuteronomy (26:1-29:8) is almost certainly the most famous, and foreboding, set of blessings and cursings in the Bible. But, notably, it begins with "when you have come into the land," and a set of instructions, such as the 'Bikkurim' or offerings of First Fruits, that are to take place there. But we remain in exile, have been "shalach"-ed for cause. So what does that mean about those curses? The Erev Shabbat reading begins there, and the specifics, to set the state: https://hebrewnationonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/SSM-9-12-25-Ki-Tavo-teaching-podcast-xxx.mp3 During the Sabbath Day midrash, Mark Call of Shabbat Shalom Mesa addresses exactly that question. But it begins with an observation: The plagues are certainly - undeniably - "well deserved," not just by the US, but the world. And many, at least, already seem to be in progress. Yet we are told, repeatedly, in Scripture, to "have no fellowship," with the unfruitful works of darkness. To "flee from idolatry." And not to 'keep company' with, or even eat with, the kind of people who commit the kind of perversions we routinely see promoted on CNN. Or taught in the public 'schools.' Mark argues that we have been told to "come out of her," to not participate with those sins, so as to - hopefully - avoid the promised plagues. The prophet Amos tells us that, unless they are agreed, it's difficult for two people to "walk together." And we saw this week there are, unquestionably, a large demonic army of people with whom reasoned dialogue, discourse, debate, and now arguably even peaceful coexistence have been demonstrated to be impossible. So, do those plagues in Deuteronomy 28 still apply? Or not? Isn't it relevant that the FIRST three plagues in Egypt hit everyone? But, during the fourth, of flies, YHVH "put a difference," made a distinction, between the pagan Egyptians and His people? The promised plagues are here, and we're already in exile. So what now? Ki Tavo: The Plagues are OPTIONAL https://hebrewnationonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/WT-CooH-9-13-25-Ki-Tavo-Plagues-are-OPTIONAL-podcast-xxxx.mp3 The combined two-part reading and Sabbath midrash:

The Haftarah for the Torah parasha Ki Tavo this week exhorts, "Rise, and shine!" This means someone is needed to arise, and some darkness needs light to shine into it." Judges 5 tells us, "Village life in Israel ceased until I arose ..." A person arose - and life restarted, and darkness was dispelled. How does this dynamic apply to each of us - now - today - in our individual arcs of influence?

The pasuk says in this week's Parasha, Ki Tavo , ושמחת בכל הטוב – we are to rejoice with all of the good that Hashem gives us. In this world, when a person appreciates what others do for him, those people are happy to give him more. But when a person denies the good, it makes others turn away from giving him. At the end of the year, when we are going to request of Hashem to give us a new year of blessing, the best thing we could do is to first appreciate how much He has given us already. One of the reasons people don't appreciate is because they feel that everyone else has more than them and everyone else is happier than them. But they are very mistaken. The sefer Orchot HaYeshiva tells the story of a young man who went to see Rav Shach, zatzal , and lamented that it seemed to him that his friend, who had gotten engaged at the same time as he did, seemed to be happier than him. He was asking the Rabbi if he should perhaps break off his engagement. Rav Shach replied, "The boy you are talking about was here before and he had the exact same complaint. He thought that you seemed happier than him." This is the nature of man, to always think that others are happier than he, but in actuality, Hashem gives each person exactly what he needs to be happy, to do his job. If we could only focus on what we do have rather than on what everyone else seems to have, we would be so much happier. Just saying the Birkot HaShachar in the morning with kavana can bring a person such an appreciation for Hashem. The Chochma U'Musar writes, before we say each beracha , we should think about what exactly we are about to thank Hashem for and then appreciate it to the fullest. For example, he said, one of the berachot is פוקח עיוורים – that Hashem gives eyesight to the blind. Simply, we are saying when we go to sleep we can't see and each day when we wake up, Hashem gives up the ability to see once again. We are supposed to imagine the feelings of a blind man, lo alenu , and then imagine that all of a sudden, a doctor came up with a medication that could cure the blind. How much joy would a blind man have finally being able to see? That is the amount of appreciation that we are supposed to show Hashem every single day because nothing is a given and just because a person has something today doesn't necessarily mean he'll have it tomorrow. It is only because of the chesed of Hashem that we are able to enjoy the blessings He gives us each and every day. We also have to feel so fortunate that we have the zechut to serve the Melech Malchei HaMelachim HaKadosh Baruch Hu . The sefer Mizmor L'Asaf writes, when a person enters the shul in the morning, he should be overcome with hakarat hatov that Hashem gave him the privilege of entering His home to come and speak to Him. The more we appreciate, the better our avodat Hashem will be, the happier we will be and the happier Hashem will be to give us even more.

This week's parsha introduces the mitzvah of bikurim—bringing the first fruits to Jerusalem, handing them to the priest, and speaking words of thanks. It's not enough to feel gratitude; we must declare it out loud, with joy, and connect our personal harvests to the larger story of our people. So what are the “first fruits” in our own lives today, and how can we offer them with joy and purpose? Tune in to find out.

Ki Tavo-Shofar

The internal war of the month of Elul will determine the arena in which we will live in the coming year. To create a good and sweet year on this coming Rosh-HaShanah, we need to know how to turn the curses that befall us into blessings. The events surrounding the legitimacy of the State of Israel are encompassing the entire world and will reach their peak in a few days in New York at a conference of most of the world's nations. Did the Zohar predict the process and the event? How does the Zohar predict that it will end?
