As we embark upon these Parshios, we have the opportunity to delve once again into Yitzias Mitzraim. How much do we have to be grateful for that unlike our ancestors, we aren't living a life of slavery but of freedom?But if that freedom is so wonderful, why did 80% of the Jews in Eygpt opt out and instead prefer to remain in bondage? Were these people crazy? The answer is no. The Medrash tells us that these Jews were anything but crazy. They had very good reason to remain behind despite the suffering. In fact, to understand why only 80% chose to remain and not more, we need to clarify and deepen our understanding of what freedom is really all about and thereby grasp the fullness of Yitizias Mitzraim!Please share your comments and insights If you seek the Torah's timeless wisdom to assist in navigating your life's challenges, check out other helpful episodes on this podcast.

The ultimate goal is to understand Reb Nassim's teachings in Likutey Halachas, which relate to the Kabbalistic idea of creation as described in a Medrash about Adam and Chava. The script explains how Adam and Chava's creation and separation serve as a metaphor for the process of divine creation and human consciousness. It touches on the concept of Tzimtzum, the illusion of separateness in creation, and the purpose of achieving oneness with the divine. The episode emphasizes the practical implications of these teachings as brought down by the Baal Shem Tov and Reb Nosson within the context of Chassidus, focusing on Tefillah and the role of Malchus in divine speech and creation.Chapters00:00 Introduction 00:04 Overview of the Learning Journey00:47 Kabbalistic Insights on Creation01:44 Metaphor of Adam and Chava02:28 Human Consciousness and Divine Unity06:04 Reb Nosson's Chassidic Interpretation

Shiur from Rabbi Elimelech Kohn Ztl on פרשת שופטים. Discussed: The Yalkut and Zohar bring a Medrash where Malachaim questioned Hashem why the Torah has more compassion for animal blood than Jewish blood. Hashem's response is alluded to in a Pasuk at the beginning of the Parsha. R' Chatzkel Levenstein encouraged the Bochurim to feel the fear and anguish of their fellow Jews as if the Yeshiva was physically at the battlefields. This lesson of sensitivity is the reason why Eglah Arufa is interposed during the discussion of war to re-sensitize us to the preciousness of one human life even in the midst of battle.

Embark on a mysterious adventure as we chase the shadows of a long-lost Midrash, the Medrash of Reb Shimon Ben Pazi, which whispers secrets of ancient wisdom yet eludes capture. Guided by cryptic clues from Rabbi Yaakov Ibn Chabib's Ein Yaakov, we traverse the landscape of Torah scholarship, unraveling the debate over its most central verse. The wisdom of sages like Rabbi Akiva and Ben Azzai unfolds each offering a unique lens through which to view the core of Jewish teaching. But the journey takes an unexpected turn with the missing Medrish of Reb Shimon ben Pazi, leaving us to question and seek the true essence of our tradition.Then, prepare to be inspired as we explore the power of steadfast spiritual practice, drawing an unlikely comparison to the gradual yet transformative discipline of orthodontics. With the teachings of Reb Yisrael Salantar echoing in our ears, we understand the profound impact of even a single minute of daily Mussur study. As the Mishkan once served as the spiritual nucleus for the Jewish community, we also discuss the importance of building our sanctuaries of devotion, brick by brick, with daily rituals. The consistent actions shape our spiritual journey, inviting greatness and fulfillment into our lives with each purposeful step.Support the show------------------Check out our other Torah Podcasts and content!

Yahrtzeit Yomi #838!! פרשת חיי שרה Sarah Imeinu ״עלה במרחשון, זכות שרה אמנו שבו מתה״ (אסתר רבה ז:יא) RAV CHAIM BRISKER'S הספד ON SARAH IMEINU!! The Medrash (אסתר רבה ז:יא) tells us that when Haman drew lots to determine which date would be most auspicious to carry out his diabolical plan of genocide, he found that each month had some form of merit which would protect the Jewish people. When the lottery fell to the month of מרחשון, the Medrash says: ״זכות שרה אמנו שבו מתה״ - “The merit of שרה אמנו protected us, because she died in that month”. (Strangely, the conclusion of that same medrash is that when the lottery fell to the month of אדר, Haman rejoiced, because: ״באדר מת משה רבן״ - “Moshe Rabbeinu died in אדר”. This seems extremely perplexing - why the death of שרה אמנו is a source of merit for the Jewish people in the month of מרחשון (as Haman himself acknowledged), but the death of ‏משה רבנו is a bad omen for the Jewish people (or at least it seemed that way to Haman) in the month of אדר…. (עיין במהרז״ו, רד״ל, ויפה ענף שם, ואכמ״ל.) In any event, as חשון is the month in which שרה אמנו passed away (פרשת חיי שרה always occurs in the month of חשון), I would like to share a beautiful explanation of a Medrash from Rav Chaim Brisker ZTL; we could even refer to this as: RAV CHAIM'S הספד ON SARAH IMEINU!! In Parashas Vayeira (בראשית כא:י), the Posuk says as follows: ״ותאמר לאברהם גרש האמה הזאת ואת בנה כי לא יירש בן האמה הזאת עם בני יצחק״ “And she said to Avraham, ‘Drive out this maidservant and her son, for this maidservant's son shall not inherit along with my son, Yitzchak'” At the end of ספר משלי, in the famous hymn of ״אשת חיל״, we find שלמה המלך describing the valiant woman as: ״דרשה צמר ופשתים״ - “seeking out wool and linen”. The ילקוט שמעוני interprets this verse as referring to Sarah as follows: ״דרשה צמר ופשתים - בין יצחק לישמעאל, שנאמר ותאמר שרה לאברהם גרש וגו׳״ “‘Seeking out wool and linen' - this refers to Sarah who distinguished between יצחק and ישמעאל” From where did the Medrash infer that these words allude to Sarah and her decision to disinherit ישמעאל? Says Rav Chaim Brisker, absolutely Moiradik!! - In demanding that Avraham not allow Yishmael to inherit along with Yitzchak, Sarah seems to have been causing a violation of the prohibition of transferring the rights of the firstborn son of the despised wife to the son of the beloved one - ״לא יוכל לבכר את בן אהובה״ וכו׳ (דברים כא:טז). Sarah, however, reasoned that it was permitted, for Hashem had commanded Avraham to heed whatever Sarah had said - ״כל אשר תאמר אליך שרה שמע בקולה״ (בראשית כא:יב). This constituted a מצות עשה - positive commandment, and whenever a positive commandment comes into conflict with a prohibition, the positive commandment takes precedence (מצות עשה דוחה מצות לא תעשה). The principle of מצות עשה דוחה לא תעשה is derived from the law that woolen tzitzis may be attached to a linen garment (See :יבמות ה). Though the Torah normally precludes the wearing of שטנז - clothing made from wool and linen, the positive commandment of tzitzis OVERRIDES the prohibition of שטנז. This, says Rav Chaim, is the symbolic meaning of Sarah being ״דרשה צמר ופשתים״ - “seeking out wool and linen”. Therein, she established the principle of the precedence of מצוות עשה - positive commandments over negative ones, the very principle which allowed her to insist that Yishmael be disinherited!! Have a wonderful Shabbos!!

Noach would not leave the Teiva until the dove returned with an olive leaf in his mouth. But where would a dove get an olive leaf from? The Medrash provides us with two solutions: Gan Eden or Eretz Yisrael. What is the inner meaning of retrieving an olive leaf from these two places? In this shiur, Rav Burg explores how we can return to our lives after the flood of destruction. How do we know that it is safe to leave the Teiva? When we discover that our inner essence is untainted, the essential self that never participated in our lowest moments and even the essence of our lowest parts that did things we are not proud of, it gives us the feeling of safety to return to the vulnerabilities of life.
