R. Marcus Rubenstein's D'var Torah from Shabbat morning services at Temple of Aaron on September 20th, 2025 on parshat Nitzavim.
It's a new year and also the lunar eclipse and energy is MOVING! This episode has some tense moments and you may feel uncomfortable at times. We certainly did. But that's OK. Growth requires change and change is not easy or comfortable. Still, we hope you get something out of this episode.Shana Tovah to you, dear listener!
Parsha "Nitzavim" (Deuteronomy (29:9-thru chapter 30) is the parsha that Mark Call almost always says is not only a vital, undeniable, and not-yet-fulfilled, prophecy of our future, but contains the most succinct two-word summary of His Torah in the Bible. And it begins with that enigmatic introduction, "Nitzavim," or "you are standing" - all of you, THIS DAY, before YHVH your El... ...and here we are now, THIS DAY (ha yom) doing exactly that - again. The Erev Shabbat reading begins there, and the specifics, to set the stage: https://hebrewnationonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/SSM-9-19-25-Nitzavim-teaching-podcast-xxx.mp3 During the Sabbath Day midrash, Mark Call of Shabbat Shalom Mesa begins with a theme that has been on many of our minds this last week or two, and the phrase "doctrines of demons," from Paul's first letter to Timothy, 4:1. It is certainly encouraging that Charlie's execution/martyrdom has encouraged many people to look at his lifetime body of work, and his testimony for faith in the Living Elohim. No doubt many - particularly young and college-aged people - are considering a 'turn' toward the teachings of Scripture. And yet, Mark suggests, the popular reaction of just "go back to church," is but a pitiful small step in what might be the right direction. After all, many LEFT 'the church' because of it's demonstrated, Scripturally-condemned, failure to "teach my people the difference," between the holy and profane, clean and unclean. Simply returning to what already failed, and got us here, is not a real solution. And yet, Deuteronomy 30 gives us both a clear razor for Truth, and a bold promise of why we MUST turn! Warning: Some will be offended. YHVH certainly made the reason for His anger, and our continued exile, abundantly clear. But so is the Promise.

Choose Life, That You May Live - Torah Portion - Nitzavim: (Deuteronomy 29:10–30:20) by Shawn Ozbun
Rabbi Amy Bernstein's weekly Torah study class via Zoom - Deuteronomy/Devarim 29:27 - September 19, 2025.
What if our understanding of repentance makes it harder than it needs to be?This insightful exploration of teshuvah (repentance) unveils a revolutionary approach, transforming this seemingly daunting spiritual task into something remarkably accessible. Drawing from the Torah's promise that this mitzvah "is not too baffling for you, nor beyond reach," we discover that the path of return might be closer than we ever imagined.The episode introduces the profound wisdom of Rabbi Shlomo Hoffman, whose psychological and spiritual insights have guided thousands through the complex terrain of genuine change. Through a powerful parable of a driver heading north instead of south, we learn that teshuvah isn't about reaching the destination; it's about recognizing your wrong direction and making the turn.Most remarkably, Jewish tradition offers competing models of repentance. The one we're encouraged to follow—Rabbeinu Yonah's approach—is surprisingly gentle. Yom Kippur atones not for those who have completed their transformation, but for those honestly engaged in the process of returning.For anyone who has felt overwhelmed by the demands of the High Holiday season, this perspective offers profound relief. The first step—honest self-awareness about what needs to change—is already considered teshuvah. This clarity, this moment of recognition, places you firmly on the path of return.As Rosh Hashanah approaches, allow yourself to embrace this compassionate understanding of spiritual growth. The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step—or, in this case, a simple turn in the right direction.Support the showJoin The Motivation Congregation WhatsApp community for daily motivational Torah content!------------------Check out our other Torah Podcasts and content!

How difficult is it to repent? How hard is it to examine your behavior, your choices, your values, your decisions to determine which are in need of improvement? How hard is it to reconsider your choices, to regret your mistakes, and to chart a new path forward, a path of righteousness, a path of purity, a path of holiness? Repentance demands a degree of self-sacrifice. To repent means to abandon from your previous self and to forge a new person, one free of that sinful way. In effect, to repent is to to eliminate the previous self in order to make way for the new you. Surprisingly, on Moshe's last day of his life, he describes repentance as something which is very easy. It is not distance, it is not beyond you, is not in the heavens or across the seas; it is in your mouth and your heart to perform it. In this interesting, elegant, and very topical podcast, we reveal new frameworks of repentance that will help us move past any negative associations we may have with repentance, and make the upcoming season of repentance more powerful, more productive, and more efficacious.– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –This Parsha Podcast is dedicated in honor of our parents Drs.

This week's parsha is short, but it holds some of the Torah's deepest principles. Moses gathers the people before God, reminding them that unity is the starting point of Jewish life: “You are standing today, all of you.” He speaks of exile and return, of redemption, and of freedom of choice. Life and death, blessing and curse are set before us and it is up to us to choose. As Rosh Hashanah approaches, the message feels especially timely. Nitzavim reminds us that Torah is not distant or abstract. It is within reach, ready to be lived and acted upon. Renewal is possible, change is attainable, and the work of teshuvah can be done with joy. So how do we take that first step into the new year, with resolve, with community, and with gladness? Tune in to find out.
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!

Nitzavim | The Devarim "Revolution", by Rav Yitzchak Etshalom What are we to make of Moshe's "Teshuva speech" in Devarim 30:1-10? The "Parashat haTeshuva" (Devarim 30:1-10) seems to double back on itself, introducing Teshuva and then - introducing it again. Based loosely on a wonderful shiur by Rav Baruch Gigi, Rosh Yeshivat Har Etzion, we analyze the difference between the obeisance directed in Sefer Shemot-Bamidbar as opposed to the emotional attachment between HKBH and Knesset Yisrael introduced by Moshe in his grand speech of Sefer Devarim. Using this dichotomy to suggest two different sets of consequences of "non-compliance" (or "Divine disappointment"), we propose reading the two segments of Parashat haTeshuva as first and foremost addressing the core relationship with HKBH and only after that relating to the practical commitment to Mitzvot.

On the final day of Moshe's life, he gathers the entire nation for a parting message. After forging another covenant between the nation and God and explicating the consequences thereof, Moshe presents the nation with a choice: "Behold I have placed before you today: life and good vs. death and bad... Choose life." There are two options for us: life that amounts to good or death that amounts to bad. What is the nature of this binary choice? What is Moshe trying to convey to the Nation? Why are we commanded to choose life? Isn't it obvious that any sensible person will make that choice? In the final parsha Podcast before Rosh Hashana, we explore the stark choice that Moshe placed before the Nation, a choice that truthfully faces each one of us.– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –DONATE: 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.
