Podcasts about moshiach

In Episode 17 of the Ask Away series on the Everyday Judaism Podcast, recorded post a lecture on Siman 26 (Laws of Kaddish), Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe fields diverse questions from participants at the TORCH Centre in Houston. The session, held on a Sunday (September 14, 2025, as Rosh Hashanah is referenced as upcoming), covers Kaddish obligations, the coming of Moshiach, the nature of the soul, and Jewish practices during Elul. Key themes include:Kaddish Clarifications: Kaddish elevates deceased souls, primarily a duty for children, but grandchildren, grand-nieces, or close non-biological relatives (e.g., stepparents) can recite it if no one else is available. Women can say it quietly in shul, and converts rely on the community. All mitzvot, not just Kaddish, merit ancestors (0:47–3:12, 26:35–30:44, 42:09–43:41).Moshiach and Global Chaos: The urgency for Moshiach is heightened by recent violence (e.g., Jerusalem bus murders, Manhattan shooting, Charlie Kirk's execution). Daily Amidah prayers for Jerusalem's rebuilding and David's throne, plus mitzvot, hasten Moshiach, who will unify the world under Hashem's oneness. Jewish diversity (e.g., Hasidic sects) reflects unity in Torah, not division (3:12–14:05).Soul and Reincarnation: The soul, a divine spirit (Genesis 2:7), is eternal, housed in a temporary body. Life's challenges perfect its “imperfections,” like a diamond. Reincarnation may occur to complete this mission, with gender or form varying by purpose. Its unity is divinely sustained, intangible like sound or fire (14:50–24:43).Elul's Teshuva: Elul's “King in the field” offers amnesty for sins, making teshuva potent. Slichot, begun the previous night, enhances forgiveness, aligning with Yimei Ratzon (31:17–34:08).Biblical vs. Customary Laws: The prohibition on shaving with a blade is biblical (Leviticus 19:27), not a custom, unlike arbitrary practices. Rabbi Wolbe clarifies misconceptions, encouraging further questions (37:22–41:20).Prayer and Community: Havdalah is permissible for women, and converts are cherished, with communal Kaddish ensuring their souls' elevation (34:08–35:20, 42:32–43:41).Please submit your questions at askaway@torchweb.org_____________The Everyday Judaism Podcast is dedicated to learning, understanding and appreciating the greatness of Jewish heritage and the Torah through the simplified, concise study of Halacha, Jewish Law, thereby enhancing our understanding of how Hashem wants us to live our daily lives in a Jewish way._____________This Podcast Series is Generously Underwritten by Marshall & Doreen LernerDownload & Print the Everyday Judaism Halacha Notes:https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1RL-PideM42B_LFn6pbrk8MMU5-zqlLG5This episode (Ep. #65) of the Everyday Judaism Podcast by Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe of TORCH is dedicated to my dearest friends, Marshall & Doreen Lerner!

Shabbat Shuvah A close connection exists between the observance of Shabbat and the experience of teshuvah . This connection can be discerned already in the word שבת , which relates to the verb שוב , the root of the word תשובה . This connection also emerges from the following story told in the Midrash ( Vayikra Rabbah 10:5) about a meeting that took place between Kayin, after he repented for his sin, and his father, Adam: כיון שיצא פגע בו אדם הראשון אמר לו מה נעשה בדינך אמר לו עשיתי תשובה ונתפשרתי כיון ששמע אדם הראשון כך התחיל טופח על פניו אמר לו כל כך היא כחה של תשובה ולא הייתי יודע באותה שעה אמר אדם הראשון מזמור שיר ליום השבת. Adam asked Kayin what happened to him as a result of his sin, and Kayin replied that he repented and was thus given a light sentence. At that moment, the Midrash tells, Adam began slapping himself in frustration. "If I had realized that teshuvah was so powerful," he cried, "I would have performed teshuvah after my sin!" The Midrash concludes that Adam then proceeded to compose the Psalm of מזמור שיר ליום השבת , the special song for Shabbat. This clearly indicates that Shabbat somehow closely relates to the concept of teshuvah . Another indication to this effect can be found in a Midrashic passage cited by the Orchot Tzadikim( Shaar haTeshuvah) . The Midrash tells that when Moshe ascended to the heavens to receive the Torah, he found angels with a Sefer Torah open in each of the seven levels of heaven. At each level, the angels were learning about the corresponding day of creation: the angels at the first level were learning about the first day of creation, at the second level they were learning about the second day, and so on, until the seventh level, where the angels learned about Shabbat. Additionally, the angels at each level were discussing and praising G-d for a certain concept. At the first level, they spoke about the Torah; on the second, the Torah and the Jewish People; on the third, the city of Jerusalem; the fourth, Moshiach ; the fifth, the suffering of Gehinom ; on the sixth level, they spoke of Gan Eden and prayed that G-d grant the Jewish People a portion in Gan Eden . On the seventh level, which corresponds to Shabbat, Moshe Rabbenu held onto the Throne of Glory, which is situated on that level, and he saw all kinds of angels assembled discussing teshuvah . They praised the power of teshuvah , which reaches all the way to the Throne of Glory, as alluded to in the pasuk , שובה ישראל עד ה' אלקיך . This, too, points to a close connection between Shabbat and teshuvah . The seventh level of the heavens, which is situated near the Throne of Glory, corresponds to Shabbat, because Shabbat is associated with teshuvah , which rises directly to the Throne. The basis of this connection is the concept of return. Rav Wolbe noted that teshuvah does not actually mean "repentance," but rather "return." Teshuvah is about returning to Hashem, and Shabbat is the time when all of creation returns to its source. The concept of the seven different layers of the heaven is discussed by the Gemara, in Masechet Chagigah(12b). The Gemara there gives the names of these seven layers – וילון, רקיע, שחקים, זבול, מעון, מכון, ערבות . At the seventh level, the Gemara describes, there is "righteous, justice and charity," as well as "treasuries of life, treasuries of peace, and treasuries of blessing." (This, too, is connected to Shabbat, as it is the מקור הברכה – the source of all blessing – and thus G-d's "treasuries of blessing" are found on the seventh level of the heaven, which corresponds to Shabbat.) This level also contains the souls of the righteous, the souls of those who have not yet been born, and the טל תחיה – the dew with which G-d will one day resurrect the dead. Our Rabbis explain that the Gemara refers here not only to the literal resurrection, when the deceased will actually come back to life, but also the figurative "resurrection" – namely, teshuvah . A sinner is considered spiritually "dead," and the process of teshuvah enables him to regain his "life." The "dew" which enables us to "resurrect" ourselves after sin is found there, in the seventh level of the heaven, the level of Shabbat, because on Shabbat we are given the unique ability to grow and negate the harmful effects of sin. This unique power is given to us every Shabbat, but especially on Shabbat Shuvah, when Hashem calls to us, שובה עד ה' אלקיך – to return to Him, promising that our repentance will go straight to His Throne in the highest levels of the heavens. Shabbat Shuvah is so significant that the Tur ( Orach Chaim 612) records an opinion among the poskim permitting the recitation of Selichot on this Shabbat, despite the fact that Selichot is normally forbidden on Shabbat as it is inconsonant with the festive spirit of the day. The Bais Yosef explains that according to this view, the period of the Aseret Ymei Teshuvah is a time of danger, as we are being judged, and this unique situation allows us to recite Selichot and beseech Hashem for forgiveness. Although we do not follow this opinion, it demonstrates the special status of this Shabbat and how this is a most propitious time for teshuvah . Let us, then, take advantage of the unique opportunity offered by this special Shabbat, and thereby ensure that our teshuvah and efforts to grow and draw closer to Hashem will rise directly to His Throne, so we will be worthy of His kindness and grace throughout the coming year, אמן .

Chelek Chof Ches (p.157) teaches about “Not Normal Love” that can transform even “Not Normal Hatred.” With true deep love, even hatred can be a force that leads to good. Our forefathers paved the way, showing that transformation is always possible and we are never without hope.Wishing everyone a gut gebentsht yor and a ksiva v'chasima tova!✨ This week's Sicha — the final one of 5785 and the first of 5786 — has some very special sponsors. You'll notice a beautiful theme: everyone is so ready for THIS to be the year of Moshiach!

Rabbi Jacobson will discuss the following topics: Preparing for the New Year • What should be our focus during these last days of Elul? • What do we learn from the creation of the universe on the 25th of Elul? • Looking back at 5785 can we say it was a good year? • How can we prepare for the New Year if we feel empty and alone due to family separations? • Can a person prepare for the New Year while remaining emotionally unhealthy? • How can I prepare properly for Rosh Hashana when I am struggling financially and it's taking a toll on my shalom bayis? • Just as we need time to prepare for the coronation of the king, can we say that the 31 years since Gimmel Tammuz was needed to prepare for the coronation of Moshiach? Netzavim • Why do we always read this Parsha before Rosh Hashana? • What lessons can we learn from this week's Parsha? • Unity • Redemption • Torah's personal relevance • Choose life • What did this covenant add to the Sinai covenant? • How does Tanya explain the verse ki karov ey'lecha ha'dovar me'od b'picha u'blvovcha la'soso?How can I find a trustworthy and competent mashpia? How should we react to the assassination of Charlie Kirk? • Should we be supportive of him though he advocated Christianity? • How should we respond to his enemies mocking him? What does the Torah mean when it says that after the Geulah our mouths will be filled with laughter?

Rabbi Hirshfeld - Moshiach & Geula - 14 - 09/14/25 by Shapell's Rabbeim

   In this episode, we look at one of the most puzzling stories of Bayis Shani, the story of Sukkos. The possuk seems to imply that this was the first time they kept Sukkos since Yehoshua. How do we understand this?   We also look at the basic dynamics of the times of Moshiach. How does the dynamic between Israel and the other nations change? And similarly we discuss the Ingathering of the Exiles.        This week's episode is dedicated לרפואה השלימה לשרה פעשא בת יפה אסתר by her family  Nach Yomi: Join R' Wittenstein's Nach Yomi on WhatsApp. We learn a perek a day five days a week, with a nine minute shiur covering the key issues.

Even though Moshiach (the Messiah) has not yet come, we eagerly anticipate his arrival. The advent of the Messianic era includes the Geula, the full redemption of our people, the ingathering of the exiles to our holy homeland of Israel and the rebuilding of our Holy Temple in Jerusalem. We believe that this can happen at any moment…

Tes-Zayin Elul (21:36)

In this week's Torah portion, Ki Seitzei, we learn the law of the firstborn: even if the firstborn son comes from the “unloved” wife, he must be given the double portion. Rabbi Yisroel Bernath explored the deeper Kabbalistic meaning behind this law, revealing that the “beloved” and “unloved” wives are metaphors for two sides of our soul — the inspired, G-d-loving self and the struggling, conflicted self. The Torah teaches that our greatest spiritual “firstborn” often emerges from the parts of ourselves we might despise. By working with our struggles, we can produce a “double portion” of light and blessing, more precious to G-d than what comes easily.Key TakeawaysTwo Souls Within: We each have a “beloved” side (our Divine soul) and an “unloved” side (our animal soul) — both are part of our relationship with G-d.The Power of Struggle: G-d delights not only in saintly ease but especially in the victories that come from our inner battles.A Double Portion: What feels despised in us can be the source of double blessing when transformed.Self-Compassion: Instead of hating our struggles, we can embrace them as the very reason we were created (Tanya ch. 27).Messianic Promise: In the era of Moshiach, the hidden “firstborn” light of our struggles will be revealed in full splendor.#Jewish #Judaism #Torah #TorahPortion #TorahLessons #BibleStudy #Bible #FirstbornRights #AnimalSoul #Divine #DivineSoul #KiSeitzei #KiTeitzei #Moshiach #chabad #chassidus #Kabbalah #Rabbi Sign up for "The Forgiveness Lab" HERE: theloverabbi.com/eventsSupport the showGot your own question for Rabbi Bernath?

  In this week's episode, we take a closer look at why people from the Yeshiva world have significant problems relating to the issues of Moshiach. How much of this issue is clearly discussed in Shas? Where in fact is this issue discussed?   We also examine the question of is there any reason to think the structure of Bayis Shlishi should be similar to Bayis Shani?  And we also discuss  the structure of Bayis Shani, and why Bayis Shani had this exact structure.   This week's episode is dedicated לרפואה השלימה לשרה פעשא בת יפה אסתר Nach Yomi: Join R' Wittenstein's Nach Yomi on WhatsApp. We learn a perek a day five days a week, with a nine minute shiur covering the key issues.

  In this episode, we take a careful look at how the Halacha looks at ultimate loss based on Hilchos Availus. We also look at how people generally speaking react to this situation. And similarly, we discuss how this should affect how we relate to The Bais HaMikdash and Moshiach.    We also start looking at the basic structure of Moshiach based on the parallelisms in Tanach.

   This week's episode is sponsored in honor of the magid shiur by an old friend who is one the great askanim of our times. In this episode, we take a careful look at how the Halacha looks at ultimate loss based on Hilchos Availus. We also look at how people generally speaking react to this situation. And similarly, we discuss how this should affect how we relate to The Bais HaMikdash and Moshiach.    We also start looking at the basic structure of Moshiach based on the parallelisms in Tanach.

Hashem Redeems Israel

Crowns of Moshiach Times

Rabbi Jacobson will discuss the following topics: Chassidus applied to Tisha B'Av How does this day capture the paradox of a Jew? Why are we still grieving? What is the healthy way of mourning over loss while not being defined by it? Should the main focus of this day be the sadness and grief over the destruction of the Holy Temple, or should it be the joy and happiness that the third Temple will be revealed and be greater than the first two? Why was Moshiach born in the darkest moments of this saddest day of the year? Why did the other sages not laugh like Rabbi Akiva; were they not aware of the future prophecy? Is there a custom to do a “prank” on Tisha B'av as in the story with Reb Yisroel Ruzhiner? Are we supposed to continue the mourning on the 10th of Av? How important is unity in repairing the wounds of Tisha B'Av? And how does that apply today to winning the battles with our enemies? Can we apply Tisha B'av to healing from all forms of illness? What is a balanced Torah approach to healing and medicine? Should we listen to doctors who only medicate and do not address the soul? What is the significance of Shabbat Nachamu? Why the double Nachamu Nachamu Ami? Why is the 15th of Av such a great holiday comparable to Yom Kippur? What can we learn from the joyous events that occurred on this day to give us hope that we will endure and thrive despite the latest demonstrations of antisemitism? Did the Rebbe say that the breaking of the axe also symbolizes that we have finished our work of refining the world?  Why was public dancing permitted on this day? How is it consistent with strict standards of modesty followed today?Nachamu/15th of Av How should we respond to questions about the recently publicized photo of the Rebbe and the Rebbetzin? Follow-up 

B”H We're just coming out of Tisha B'Av, when we mourned for the Temple. Today, we can shift from mourning to yearning — to anticipation, to active participation in the rebuilding of said Temple and in Moshiach's coming. And to help us step fully into that mindset, I'm joined by Rabbi Lawrence Hajioff, author of […] The post 443: Moshiach Is Not a Fringe Topic with Rabbi Lawrence Hajioff appeared first on Yael Trusch.

This isn't a typical podcast. It's the trailer for Homeless — our first-ever film. A raw, emotional journey into what it means to live in exile… and what it means to come home. If you've ever felt disconnected, if you've ever stopped to wonder where Moshiach fits into your life — this is for you.
