In this episode on Parshas Emor, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe explores the spiritual themes of holiness and continuity. He highlights Pesach Sheni (14 Iyar) as Hashem's gift of second chances for those who were impure or too far to bring the Korban Pesach on 14 Nisan — teaching that it's never too late to correct course, reconnect with Hashem, and fulfill mitzvos. The parsha also introduces the Omer count, beginning “the day after Shabbos” (Mimacharas HaShabbos), not a fixed calendar date. This emphasizes carrying Pesach's holiness and emunah forward — the inspiration doesn't end when Pesach does; it infuses the coming weeks until Shavuot, like helium sustaining a balloon if we don't let it leak.Rabbi Wolbe stresses intentional living: infuse every mitzvah with passion so its effect lasts the full year. Just as Shabbos carries into the week (Mimacharas HaShabbos), Pesach's redemption should propel us toward receiving the Torah. Customs like eating leftover matzah on Pesach Sheni and omitting Tachanun reinforce this continuity. The message: never despair — Hashem always offers renewal, and we must keep the spiritual “helium” flowing through consistent avodah._____________This episode of the Parsha Review Podcast is dedicated in honor of Lenny & Teresa FriedmanDownload & 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 May 1, 2026, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on May 1, 2026_____________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!

Today is Pesach Sheni - the “second Passover,” an often overlooked moment in the Jewish calendar. Though it is no longer practiced today, its message is as urgent as ever. In the Torah, Pesach Sheni emerges in a way unlike any other mitzvah. A group of Jews, unable to bring the Korban Pesach, refuse to accept their loss. They cry out: “Why should we miss out?” In response, God does something extraordinary and unprecedented - God creates a new Mitzvah, a second chance that had never existed before. This yearning - this refusal to let a Mitzvah slip away - comes alive in a powerful and unforgettable story from the consecration of a cemetery in Amsterdam. Pesach Sheni challenges us: Do we truly long to do what is right? Or do we quietly accept missed opportunities? Sometimes, the difference between missing out and receiving a second chance… is how much we want it.

B"H It's time for Matzah in May
התוכן בכל (א' ובפרט) יהודי יש ב' ענינים: זה שהוא יחיד וזה שהוא חלק מהכלל והציבור. ולכן גם בקרבן פסח שהי' הכנה ליציאת מצרים שאז הי' לידת עם ישראל יש בו ב' הנקודות: שהוא קרבן יחיד שנעשה ע"י רוב הציבור. וההוראה: ישנם משטרים שמתנהגים באופן של"יחיד" אין שום חשיבות והוא רק חלק מה"ציבור" ונבלע בו. שיטת התורה היא שהיחיד הוא מציאות בפ"ע ו"עולם מלא", שתמיד מתחשבים בזה ועד שלפעמים זה מכריע את ענין ה"ציבור". וזוהי גם מעלת מדינה זו שאלי' הגרו יהודים "מעבר מסך הברזל" וביניהם כ"ק מו"ח אדמו"ר שהכריז מיד בבואו שבא כדי להראות ש"אמריקה אינה שונה" וגם כאן אפשר להתנהג עפ"י תומ"צ – שכ"ז הוא הודות לזה שה"ציבור" וה"משטר" של מדינה זו התמסרו להצלת היחיד. ומביעים בזה את הכרת הטוב למשטר המדינה והעומד בראשם שעושים כמיטב יכלתם לשמור על זכויות היחיד, גם בנוגע ליהדות.משיחת י"א ניסן ה'תשל"ז ל"הנחה פרטית" או התרגום ללה"ק של השיחה: https://thedailysicha.com/?date=01-04-2026 Synopsis In every person, especially a Jew, there are two aspects: the individual identity, and the fact that one is a part of the collective whole. Therefore, these two aspects are also found in the Korban Pesach, which was the preparation for the Exodus from Egypt, at which time the Jewish people were born: On the one hand, it is an individual offering, but on the other hand, it was brought by the majority of the community. The lesson is as follows: There are governments where the individual has no importance at all, and is totally absorbed within the collective. But the Torah approach is that the individual is an independent entity and a “complete world,” which is always taken into consideration, and which sometimes outweighs the interest of the collective. This is also the virtue of the United States, a country to which many Jews escaped from behind the Iron Curtain, including my father-in-law, the Rebbe, who, immediately upon arrival, announced that he had come to demonstrate that “America is no different,” and that even here it is possible to conduct oneself in accordance with Torah and mitzvos – all of which was made possible because the community and the government of this country devoted themselves to saving an individual. For this we express gratitude to the government and to those who stand at its helm, who do their utmost to safeguard the rights of the individual, including the ability to keep Yiddishkeit freely.Excerpt from sichah of 11 Nissan 5737 For a transcript in English of the Sicha: https://thedailysicha.com/?date=01-04-2026 לע"נ הרב לוי יצחק ע"ה בן – יבלח"ט – הרב חיים צבי שי' וואלאסאוו
The Rebbe analyzes the requirement to eat one or two kezaytim of Afikoman, uncovering a deeper debate about whether the Afikoman commemorates the Korban Pesach or the matzah eaten with it. The discussion raises fundamental questions about the structure of the Seder and how we fulfill multiple views in practice. https://www.torahrecordings.com/classes/by_month/008_nisan/hagadah/018
This week is Parashat Tzav as well as Shabbat HaGadol . On Shabbat HaGadol , the final Shabbat that the Jewish People were in Mitzrayim , Hashem commanded them to begin the process of offering the Korban Pesach . Why did Hashem command the Jews to take the sheep for the korban four days before they were going to offer it? The Midrash answers, the time of the Geula had arrived but the Jews did not have the merits to be redeemed so Hashem gave them an additional commandment regarding the korban to help them. Look how precious a mitzvah is! Even the preparation of the Korban Pesach was able to give the Jews the merit to be redeemed. The parshiot we are reading now are discussing the korbanot . The pasuk says when a Jew brought a korban, it was considered a ריח ניחוח לה' – it brought up a pleasing aroma to Hashem. What did Hashem love so much about a korban ? Perhaps we can explain from a question asked by the Acharonim : Why is it that the construction of the Mishkan did not override Shabbat while the offering of korbanot did? Seemingly, the building of a home for the Shechina to dwell in should be more important than offering sacrifices there. Rabbi Menashe Reizman quoted the sefer Nachat Yaakov who answered that the construction of the Mishkan was primarily done by Hashem. It was not humanly possible for a person to put it up, as the pasuk says הוקם המשכן. Many of the vessels as well were made by Hashem. The Menorah, for example, Hashem told Moshe to throw it into a fire and the Menorah came out. All the embroidery was miraculously made. Regarding the construction of the Second Beit HaMikdash, there were enormous stones, some 30 feet tall. How was it possible for a person to lift them so high upon a wall. The Yerushalmi says, when the people made the effort, Hashem miraculously lifted those stones for them. So therefore, since the Mishkan and the Beit HaMikdash were made by Hashem, although it was very important to Him, that did not override Shabbat. The korbanot , however, were performed exclusively by us. All of the difficult tasks involved in bringing a korban were done by the sweat of the people and Hashem loved their deeds so much. He loves when we put toil in to fulfill a mitzvah. That is what is so precious to Him and that even overrides Shabbat. Although today we cannot put in the same efforts of offering an actual korban , there's still a lot that we can do. The Midrash at the beginning of this week's parasha brings a mashal about a king who was traveling through the desert and his good friend came there to give him a basket of figs and a barrel of wine. The king told him, "You have honored me greatly by coming all the way here to give these thing to me." The friend replied, "My master, the King, this is just a small token of the honor that I want to give you. When you come back to your palace, you'll see there how much honor I'm really going to give you." That's the mashal. The nimshal is Hashem tells us, "זאת תורת העולה – You have honored Me by bringing a korban olah ." And we tell Hashem, "This is just a small token of the honor that we're capable of bringing You. When You come back to Your palace, there we're going to give You the real honor." This Midrash is obviously talking about today's time when we can't offer a real korban . So what temporary honor are we giving Hashem? Learning about the korbanot , drawing lessons from the korbanot . That in it of itself is so precious to Hashem and He considers it like we are honoring Him. But we tell Hashem, "Soon, when You bring back the Beit HaMikdash, there we're going to truly honor You, the way we're supposed to." As for today, we're still learning the lessons of korbanot , we're seeing how precious the nitty gritty involvement of a Jew in a mitzvah is to Hashem. We hope that just like Shabbat HaGadol was the last Shabbat for the Jews in Mitzrayim , so too it will be our last Shabbat in this long exile. B'ezrat Hashem, we should see the rebuilding of the Beit HaMikdash and be able to bring Hashem true glory inside of it. Shabbat Shalom.
Rulings and insights from the Lubavitcher Rebbe - Rabbi Chaim Wolosow
The Rebbe explains that the Alter Rebbe omits comparing reciting Korban Pesach to tefillah because it is even greater. Describing the korban in detail is considered a more direct connection, as if one is actually performing it. https://www.torahrecordings.com/shulchan_menachem/orach_chayim/232_001
Rulings and insights from the Lubavitcher Rebbe - Rabbi Chaim Wolosow
The Rebbe outlines three levels of replacing korbanos: reciting pesukim for atonement, studying the laws as if performing the avodah, and tefillah as the actual substitute. Korban Pesach uniquely combines these, creating a powerful connection and longing for the Beis HaMikdash. https://www.torahrecordings.com/shulchan_menachem/orach_chayim/232_002
Rulings and insights from the Lubavitcher Rebbe - Rabbi Chaim Wolosow
The Rebbe explains the custom of using a chicken neck for the zeroa and removing most of its meat. This ensures a clear distinction from the Korban Pesach, emphasizing that it is only a remembrance and not an actual offering. https://www.torahrecordings.com/shulchan_menachem/orach_chayim/232_003
Rulings and insights from the Lubavitcher Rebbe - Rabbi Chaim Wolosow
The Rebbe explains that reciting Korban Pesach reaches a unique level, almost like actually bringing the korban. This stems from Pesach as the time of ultimate freedom, which also awakens a deep longing for the Beis HaMikdash. https://www.torahrecordings.com/shulchan_menachem/orach_chayim/232_005
Rulings and insights from the Lubavitcher Rebbe - Rabbi Chaim Wolosow
The Rebbe explains the Chabad custom not to eat the zeroa on the Seder plate. Since the Korban Pesach's main purpose was to be eaten, refraining from eating it clearly distinguishes it from the actual korban. https://www.torahrecordings.com/shulchan_menachem/orach_chayim/241
The most important aspect of "Pesach" in the Mishkan and Beis HaMikdash was the Korban Pesach itself. Despite us not presently brining the korban, understanding its significance will unlock a whole new dimension of understanding regarding the yom tov of Pesach.

Daily Halacha Podcast - Daily Halacha By Rabbi Eli J. Mansour
Numerous different theories have been advanced to explain why the Kaddish prayer was written in Aramaic, and not in Hebrew. One reason given is based on the tradition that angels do not understand Aramaic. Kaddish is such a precious and valuable prayer that the angels would feel envious if they heard us recite it and they understood its meaning. This prayer was therefore composed in a language which the angels cannot understand. The Mahzor Vitri (Rabbenu Simha of Vitri, France, d. 1105) questioned this explanation, noting that there are many other beautiful and precious prayers which we recite that were written in Hebrew, without any concern that the angels might become envious. (We might also question how angels, which are perfect beings, can experience jealousy, a human flaw. Perhaps, envy over spiritual achievements is a laudable quality, and this feeling can be experienced by angels.) A second theory is that Kaddish is written in Aramaic as a reminder of the Babylonian exile. We emphasize to Hashem that He destroyed the Bet Ha'mikdash and drove us into a foreign land, where we spoke a foreign language, and we hope that this will lead Hashem to regret His decision and bring us back. If the angels understood this prayer, they would respond by pointing out our misdeeds, arguing that we are unworthy of redemption, and so we recite Kaddish in a language which the angels do not understand. Another reason given is that many of the people who would attend Torah classes were simple laymen who did not understand Hebrew. Therefore, the Kaddish recited after Torah classes was written in Aramaic for their benefit, so they would understand this prayer. It seems that according to this reason, the other Kaddish recitations were modeled after the Kaddish recited after Torah classes. The Maharam Me'Rotenberg (c. 1215-1293) suggested that we recite Kaddish in Aramaic to express our grief over the destruction of the Bet Ha'mikdash. Just as a mourner changes out of his fine garments and wears simple clothing as an expression of mourning, we, too, change the language from Hebrew, the sacred tongue, to the inferior Aramaic, as an expression of anguish. (Incidentally, some sources explain similarly why we begin the Haggadah at the Seder in Aramaic, reciting "Ha Lahma Anya." As we sit down to the Seder, we are cognizant of the fact that we are meant to celebrate this occasion in Jerusalem, with the Korban Pesach. We therefore begin the Seder in a foreign language, expressing our grief that we observe Pesach in exile.) Rabbi Binyamin Ben Abraham (Italy, 13 th century), as cited by his brother, the Shiboleh Ha'leket (Rabbi Sidkiya Ha'rofeh), suggested that the gentile authorities at a certain point forbade the Jews from reciting Kaddish. The Jews therefore began reciting it in Aramaic, so the authorities would not realize that they were reciting this prayer. The Kolbo (anonymous work from the period of the Rishonim) offered two explanations, one assuming that Aramaic was widely known at the time of Kaddish's composition, and one assuming that it was not. If it was widely known, he writes, then Kaddish may have been written in this language specifically for the purpose of spreading its message far and wide, to demonstrate to the entire world, including the gentiles, our belief in our ultimate redemption, when Hashem's Name will be glorified throughout the world. Conversely, if Aramaic was not widely known, then perhaps it is recited in Aramaic because the angels might otherwise understand the prayer and thus prosecute against us. The Kaddish speaks of the time of the future redemption, and at that time, the righteous will be granted a greater position of stature than the angels. Since we human beings must struggle against our evil inclination to faithfully observe G-d, those who succeed and serve G-d properly deserve far more reward than the angels, who are created perfect, without sinful impulses. If the angels would understand the Kaddish, which speaks of the time of the final redemption, they might proceed to prosecute against us to ensure that the righteous would not be given a more distinguished position in the future. Kaddish is therefore recited in Aramaic, a language which the angels do not understand.

A new mishnah! If a Korban Pesach and a sin-offering were slaughtered, but not for their own sakes correctly, then they won't be fit for those specific purposes. And this need for correct intent applies to all 4 acts of worship with regard to the blood - correct slaughter, collecting the blood, conveying it to the altar, and sprinkling it on the altar. But whether conveying the blood is truly part of this worship is opened for discussion. Also, a discussion of pigul - namely, the meat of an offering outside of its specific time of offering. Including a discussion of a kohen who dips a finger in the blood and whether that has impact on the validity of the korban and also on the question of pigul. Part of the issue is that most laws of these offerings are derived from the peace-offering, shelamim, but pigul has different halakhot for the sin-offering.
More on the timing of the slaughtering of the Korban Pesach - whether it needs to be done in the afternoon of the 14th of Nisan or whether the morning of the 14th works too. Also, a newborn animal and how it can't be offered and also can't be given as a tithe. Plus, the case of one who does wrong (eating forbidden fat), designates his sin-offering, becomes a heretic (so his designation is negated and the offering is disqualified), and then comes back to faith -- is the offering reinstated? What about someone who loses his cognitive abilities (at the same point where the first one became a heretic), and then he was healed - is the offering reinstated? Both cases are necessary, as the Gemara explains. What if the court rules that the fat isn't actually forbidden? And then retracts the ruling that it was permitted - is that offering disqualified or no? Plus, the time that all the sages agreed.
Can one switch a Korban Pesach to be a different offering? Or any offerings to be other offerings? How similar or dissimilar would the two different offerings need to be? To establish the various boundaries for the offerings, as they emerge from comparison to the Korban Pesach. [Who's Who: Mavog] [Who's Who: Rav Mesharshiyah] To establish that there are different kinds of sin-offerings, with real practical differences among them.
More on the parallels and comparsions between various offerings, and the way intent for the particular offering does (or does not) invalidate a meal-offering. Including whether the blood of the given (animal) offering can be present in the Holy of Holies. Also, a new mishnah! Is a Korban Pesach that is slaughtered in the morning of the 14th of Nisan considered slaughtered at the wrong time? Plus, the new wrinkle of whether the offering is eaten, as compared to the korban olah, which is not. And returning to the question of early on the 14th of Nisan counts as the correct time for the Pesach sacrifice.
The Gemara uses the Torah's verses to prove which offerings need to be offered specifically in the name of its purpose and for the owner. With a distinction between sin-offerings that are offered in atonement and apology for violating a karet-level sin, as compared to the nazir's sin-offering. Which sacrifices can be learned from other sacrifices, or specifically not? Also, the Korban Pesach, and how its timing is essential, but so too is it essential that it be offered for its specific purpose.
Now, the peace-offerings that are brought on occasions of thanksgiving - what if one were slaughtered in the name of a different person's thanksgiving? Is the fact that it's still a thanksgiving offering sufficient for it to be fit as an offering, or must another be offered? Also, other offerings that have to be made in the name of the specific sacrifice (like the Korban Pesach, which has to be a Shelamim/peace-offering).
