התוכן [המשך] ובזה שרש"י מציין "כמו שמצינו במעשה קרח", ששם היתה המיתה "בידי שמים", מביא ראי' למ"ש עה"פ לפנ"ז "והזר הקרב יומת" "בידי שמים", אף דבכ"מ שנאמר "יומת" (ולא "ימות") הכוונה בידי אדם. (ואף שכבר בפ' משפטים עה"פ "וגם בעליו יומת" פרש"י "בידי שמים", אבל שם אכן שואל "יכול בידי אדם" ומביא ראי' שזה "בידי שמים"). וההוראה מכל הנ"ל: כמו ב"מעשה קרח" לא "יצא (אפי') הקצף" (ולא רק העונש מיתה) עד שלא הקריבו הקטורת בפועל, ועד אז – אפי' לאחר שקרח הקהיל כל שבט לוי והציתם נגד "משה אמת ותורתו אמת" וכו' – הי' להם עוד נשיאת חן בעיני ה', ומשה חזר אחריהם שיחזרו בתשובה וכו', ועד"ז גם יהודי שחסר אצלו בענין של "שמירה מסביב למשכן", בהענין ד"הרחק מן העבירה" וכיו"ב, הנה כ"ז שאין הענין בפועל, ה"ה נושא חן גם "בעיני האלקים" – מדת הדין, ו"הקב"ה עוזרו" וכו' ובודאי ש"בל ידח ממנו נדח".משיחת מוצש"ק פ' במדבר, מבה"ח וער"ח סיון ה'תשל"ט ל"הנחה פרטית" או התרגום ללה"ק של השיחה: https://thedailysicha.com/?date=27-05-2025 Synopsis [Continued.] By citing “the incident of Korach,” where the punishment was by the hand of Heaven, Rashi gives proof to his explanation in the earlier verse, “any layperson who approaches will be put to death” that “put to death” means “by the hand of heaven,” unlike most instances of the word יומת (as opposed to ימות) which mean death by the court. (Although Rashi already explained in Mishpatim on the verse, “its owner, too, shall be put to death (יומת)” that it means by the hand of heaven, nevertheless, there he asks explicitly, “Perhaps it means by the hand of man?” and brings a proof that it means by the hand of Heaven.) The lesson from all this is that just as in the incident of Korach, even the “wrath” (let alone the punishment of death) was not unleashed until they actually offered the ketores, and moreover, even after Korach gathered the tribe of Levi and incited them against Moshe, they still found favor in Hashem's eyes, and Moshe sought to bring them to do teshuvah etc., similarly, if a Jew is lacking in his service of “guarding around the Mishkan” (distancing himself from sin) and the like, as long as he doesn't actually sin, he finds favor in “the eyes of G-d” (the attribute of judgment), and “The Holy One, blessed be He, assists him,” and it is certain that “he who is banished will not remain banished.”Excerpt from sichah of Motzaei Shabbos parashas Bamidbar, Erev Rosh Chodesh Sivan 5739 For a transcript in English of the Sicha: https://thedailysicha.com/?date=27-05-2025

Mishpatim | Rejoice While Trembling, by Rav Yair Kahn The complexity of the divine encounter

Parsha "Mishpatim" (Exodus chapters 21 through 24) is literally "judgments," or "ordinances," and begins with a number of them. But what is most fascinating about them is that so many are now considered NOT 'politically-correct,' and that fact alone merits taking a special look at why. The Erev Shabbat Reading: https://hebrewnationonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/SSM-2-21-25-Mishpatim-teaching-podcast-xxx.mp3 Mark has long remarked about the fact that this parsha, Mishpatim, is SO very NOT PC. But this year, we need to take note of an important change. People seem to have just about "had it" with men pretending to dominate 'womens' sports', and kids being taught utter perversion - and worse - in the public cesspools. And just about everything else that amounts to "calling evil good," and vice-versa. And the level of utter corruption and criminality in an illegitimate government that was NEVER supposed to be a 'democracy' in the first place has inclined more people to ask just how we could have been so deceived for so long. Perhaps the answer is in one of the key verses - also too often ignored - in this parsha as well: "Do not follow after a multitude to do evil." Could that include even a 'majority vote'? Mishpatim: DEMOLISH PC Idolatry - finally NOTE: The HNR website had difficulty loading the separate MP3 file for the Sabbath day teaching alone - so I had to go with a single combined file; the Friday reading is thus on there twice, as some have noticed.

Torah Portion - Mishpatim : (Exodus 21–24) - The Mandate of Compassion (2024-2025) by Shawn Ozbun

Parshas Mishpatim: Beyond This World This week's episode honors Rebbetzin Chaya Mushka, whose quiet strength shaped generations. Our Parsha presents 53 mitzvos, forming the core of Jewish law. But why does it begin with Eved Ivri (Jewish slave)—a seemingly irrelevant law? The Rebbe teaches that a Jew always serves something. Do we choose the eternal, or the fleeting?

In this week's parasha , Mishpatim , the Torah teaches us how careful we must be not to cause harm to another person or his property. Right after Matan Torah , the first mitzvot that Bnei Yisrael were taught were the civil laws governing interpersonal relationships. We must take to heart that the same Hashem who commanded us to observe Shabbat , Kashrut , and Taharot HaMishpacha also commanded us to compensate others if we cause them damage. The same kedusha that we receive by fulfilling mitzvot between us and Hashem is present when we fulfill mitzvot ben adam l'chavero . Just as a person understands that he cannot possibly know the halachot of Shabbat without learning them, he must also understand that he cannot possibly know the halachot of monetary law without studying them or consulting a rav . Those who are truly yirei shamayim are extremely careful when it comes to monetary halachot . Just as they would not take a chance with consuming something that is not kosher , they are equally meticulous about not violating laws related to theft or withholding payments owed to others. Rabbi Shlomo Levenstein told the following story: A young rabbi in Bet Shemesh had been learning in kollel for years but was not satisfied with the upcoming sugyot they were scheduled to study. He began searching for a kollel that was learning the topics he was most passionate about, but after months of searching, he was unable to find what he was looking for. Meanwhile, his household expenses continued to mount, and he had no source of income to cover them. One day, his wife went to the grocery store. After checking out, she met someone she knew outside and began talking. In the middle of their conversation, her shopping wagon slipped away unnoticed. Suddenly, someone shouted, alerting her that the wagon was rolling straight toward the street. She ran to catch up with it, managing to grab it just before it entered the road. However, on its way, the wagon had hit a parked car, leaving a scratch. She returned home and told her husband what had happened. He immediately jumped out of his chair and exclaimed, "Oh no! We damaged someone's property and didn't pay for it. We owe him money! We must find him at once." Without hesitation, they hurried out of the house and ran back to the grocery store. When they arrived, the woman pointed out the car that had been scratched, and they saw that the driver was just pulling out of the parking spot. The young rabbi motioned for the driver to stop so he could speak with him. He explained that his wife had accidentally scratched the car with her shopping wagon. The driver responded that he had seen the scratch and was very upset that someone had damaged his brand-new car without leaving a note. He said, "If the car had been old, it wouldn't have bothered me so much. But I just got this car two days ago. It really upset me." The young rabbi apologized profusely, gave the driver his phone number, and told him, "No matter what it costs, we will pay the full price." As the rabbi and his wife walked home, he began to wonder how he would possibly pay for the damages. It was never a question of whether he would pay—only a question of how . A minute later, as they continued walking, he bumped into a friend who asked how he was doing. He mentioned that he had been searching for a new kollel but had not been able to find the right one. The friend responded, "I actually just opened a kollel that is learning exactly what you're looking for. We have nine avreichim and one spot left." Not only that, but the stipend they were paying was significantly higher than what he had been receiving in his previous kollel . The rabbi immediately told his friend, "I would love to join." Afterward, he reflected on what had happened. "Paying for damages when you don't have the money is difficult. But when Hashem saw that I was willing to do the right thing, He gave me the greatest gift—the kollel I had been searching for—as well as the ability to pay for the damages." Every mitzva is precious. Just because monetary laws involve other people and seem like mundane matters does not mean they have any less kedusha than mitzvot between us and Hashem. Hashem wants us to be complete in all mitzvot . And those that involve parting with money—especially when it is difficult—are even greater in His eyes. Shabbat Shalom.

Today Aaron is going to share about loving God's standards. Understanding these standards is essential for building a strong, purposeful life rooted in faith. Embracing these standards guides individuals toward making righteous decisions that reflect God's love and wisdom. By prioritizing God's commandments, we cultivate moral integrity, compassion, and humility. Loving His standards helps us grow spiritually and strengthens our relationship with Him, aligning our desires with His will. Ultimately, loving God's standards is about honoring Him, living with intention, and being a positive example of His grace and truth in the world.

The first law (of dozens) featured in our Parsha tells of a Jewish bondsman who chooses to voluntarily extend his servitude past the required 6 years. This bondsman is brought to a door or a doorpost and has his ear pierced. Why is his ear pierced? Because he failed to listen carefully at Sinai. This first law of our Parsha reveals a new dimension of the Sinai Revelation and the acceptance of Torah. In this podcast, we contrast the beginning of our Parsha and the classification of Sinai that it offers, with the the end of the Parsha and the very different view of Sinai that it offers. We emerge with a novel understanding of the Sinai Revelation and the acceptance of Torah, and a deeper and richer perspective of the goal of Torah.– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –DONATE to TORCH: Please consider supporting the podcasts by making a donation to help fund our Jewish outreach and educational efforts at https://www.torchweb.org/support.php.

After the grand revelation at Mount Sinai, this week's parsha shifts from the dramatic to the practical, laying out 53 mitzvot that guide daily Jewish life—from civil laws to ethical responsibilities. But Mishpatim isn't just a list of rules; it's a blueprint for bringing Sinai into every moment. How do we take big, sacred ideas and make them part of our everyday lives? Tune in to find out.

The Parsha that follows the Revelation at Sinai contains an apparently motley potpourri of subjects: it begins with a wide variety of mitzvos of all types, presented in rapid fire succession. The Parsha concludes with two apparently unrelated subjects: it foretells of the conquest of Canaan and the conditions by which we will acquire it, and it revisits the Sinai Revelation and the events that led up to it. In this special edition of the Parsha Podcast, we explore the surprising layout of the subjects of our Parsha and discover a fundamental and perhaps overlooked benefit of the framework of Torah.– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –DONATE to TORCH: Please consider supporting the podcasts by making a donation to help fund our Jewish outreach and educational efforts at https://www.torchweb.org/support.php.

In this episode, we explore the Torah's perspective on causing harm to others—the good, the bad, and the ugly of it all. We dive into the importance of developing sensitivities and attempting to see things from another person's perspective. Ultimately, we discuss how we can never truly know what someone else is going through, and how that awareness should shape the way we interact with both strangers and loved ones.

We are pleased to bring you the audio shiur given on the topic of the Parshas Mishpatim.

Trying to get into yeshiva or seminary can be very stressful. There are many applicants and only limited spots and, unfortunately, people have to get rejected. One of the ways in which a person can give himself an edge is by working on his bitachon in Hashem. The pasuk tells us, someone who is bote'ach b'Hashem is surrounded by Hashem's kindness. It is an enormous zechut which Hashem rewards in this world as well. A man told me, six years ago his son was applying to yeshiva high school and he sent in an application to four different yeshivot . The father made sure his son reviewed his Gemara over and over so that he would be able to do well when those yeshivot would test him on it. One day, his son's 8 th grade rabbi called him and told him he is not doing enough to get his son into a good yeshiva. He told him various things that other parents were doing, including making connections or being more persistent, to give their children an edge. This man told the rabbi he was doing the normal hishtadlut and he fully believed that Hashem was in charge of which yeshiva his son would get into. He went on to speak very strong words of bitachon . The rebbe heard him and praised him for the great level that he reached. To see the extent of how powerful his words of bitachon were, the next day a principal from another yeshiva called him to tell him that he heard some of the lines of bitachon he told that other rebbe the previous day and he wanted to hear them for himself. His son began the interviews with some of the yeshivot that he applied to, but then he told his father his dream was to go to a certain yeshiva which was considered one of the top yeshivot in all of America. It was known to be extremely difficult to get into. But this father happily encouraged his son to "go for the gold" and so they applied there as well. He told his son, "Hashem is in charge and if this is a good yeshiva for you, He'll help you get into it." A couple of weeks later, his son was going on a Shabbaton and the boys were asked to prepare a devar Torah to say at the meals. The boy was learning Masechet Kiddushin and his father remembered a davar Torah that his friend told him from the Mishnat Kesef when he was 16 years old that connected what he was learning in Masechet Kiddushin to parashat Mishpatim . He told his son the devar Torah and then told him not to take anyone else's place if they wanted to speak. He should only volunteer when no one else wanted to. For the leil Shabbat meal, there were three volunteers. For the Shabbat day meal, another three and for Seudah Shlishit another three. But finally, at the Melave Malka , nobody volunteered so this boy raised his hand and offered to give the devar Torah. Since it was after Shabbat he was able to speak into a microphone. Right before he began speaking, His Rosh Yeshiva who was there received a phone call from the administrators at that top yeshiva asking for information about this boy who applied to their yeshiva. The Rosh Yeshiva told them he was about to give a devar Torah and they asked to listen in, so he put the phone by the boy and they listened to the entire devar Torah. It was extremely impressive and they decided on the spot they wanted this boy in their yeshiva. Baruch Hashem, the boy spent the next four years growing tremendously in that yeshiva. It was perfect for him in every way. The odds of him getting into that yeshiva were very slim, but with Hashem, odds don't matter. They had full bitachon in Hashem and, in that merit, Hashem helped them get in in an amazing way, timing that phone call from the administrators to the exact second this boy was speaking. The best hishtadlut we can make is always improving our bitachon in Hashem.
