BH Buck the trends

Today on Table Talk with BBYO Insider. We're wrapping up the Book of Numbers with a powerful double portion: Matot-Masei. Join us as we dive into the themes of promises, journeys, and preparing for what's next. We'll explore the importance of keeping our word, reflect on the 42 stops the Israelites made on their way to the Promised Land, and ask what it means to create safe spaces—both for ourselves and others. Whether you're on your own journey this summer or just starting a new chapter, this episode is all about movement, meaning, and growth.

Parshat Matot - Masei -2025 פרשת מטות מסעי

In Netflix's Sirens, myth meets modernity as ancient sea spirits crash into a coastal town's contemporary chaos — leaving behind a trail of mystery, memory, and moral reckoning. On this episode of PopTorah, Rabbis Knopf and Olitzky dive deep into the show's haunting exploration of identity, womanhood, trauma, and truth — and the fragile, often painful bonds […]

This time of year is always an odd one in Judaism. we are meant to feel something for Galut and the Bet Hamikdash but what? Believe it or not there is an underlying simcha to it all. We journey with the Jews in the Parsha through the 42 places in the Midbar to find a starting point for ourselves in making sense of these times. Also I admit I still like Lego.

The Meshech Chochma explains a striking detail regarding the establishment of the Arei Miklat.

The Jews have been wandering in exile for the last 2000 years.  There is a mystical clue for our diaspora contained in Parshat Masei. In 1972, Rabbi Yaakov Asher Sinclair opened SARM Studios the first 24-track recording studio in Europe where Queen mixed “Bohemian Rhapsody”. His music publishing company, Druidcrest Music published the music for The Rocky Horror Picture Show (1973) and as a record producer, he co-produced the quadruple-platinum debut album by American band “Foreigner” (1976). American Top ten singles from this album included, “Feels Like The First Time”, “Cold as Ice” and “Long, Long Way from Home”. Other production work included “The Enid – In the Region of the Summer Stars”, “The Curves”, and “Nutz” as well as singles based on The Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy with Douglas Adams and Richard O'Brien. Other artists who used SARM included: ABC, Alison Moyet, Art of Noise, Brian May, The Buggles, The Clash, Dina Carroll, Dollar, Flintlock, Frankie Goes To Hollywood, Grace Jones, It Bites, Malcolm McLaren, Nik Kershaw, Propaganda, Rush, Rik Mayall, Stephen Duffy, and Yes. In 1987, he settled in Jerusalem to immerse himself in the study of Torah. His two Torah books The Color of Heaven, on the weekly Torah portion, and Seasons of the Moon met with great critical acclaim. Seasons of the Moon, a unique fine-art black-and-white photography book combining poetry and Torah essays, has now sold out and is much sought as a collector's item fetching up to $250 for a mint copy. He is much in demand as an inspirational speaker both in Israel, Great Britain and the United States. He was Plenary Keynote Speaker at the Agudas Yisrael Convention, and Keynote Speaker at Project Inspire in 2018. Rabbi Sinclair lectures in Talmud and Jewish Philosophy at Ohr Somayach/Tannenbaum College of Judaic studies in Jerusalem and is a senior staff writer of the Torah internet publications Ohrnet and Torah Weekly. His articles have been published in The Jewish Observer, American Jewish Spirit, AJOP Newsletter, Zurich's Die Jüdische Zeitung, South African Jewish Report and many others. Rabbi Sinclair was born in London, and lives with his family in Jerusalem. He was educated at St. Anthony's Preparatory School in Hampstead, Clifton College, and Bristol University.

Rabbi Dr. Shlomo Brody wrote Ethics of Our Fighters: A Jewish View on War and Morality before the events of October 7th. Yet its publication shortly after the outbreak of the war in Gaza made the book especially timely—and deeply resonant. In it, R. Brody offers a “Jewish Multi-Value Framework” to navigate the often competing ethical considerations that arise in times of war—from the perspective of both those engaged in combat and those grappling with the moral questions. Drawing on emotionally charged moments from modern Israel's history and a candid exploration of the biblical texts related to warfare, R. Brody presents a thoughtful structure and vocabulary to approach some of the most difficult ethical dilemmas. In our conversation, we explore the book's central arguments and the diverse ways Jewish tradition has interpreted scriptural passages about war. These texts can often strike the modern reader as troubling, but as R. Brody points out, generations of sages and commentators have acknowledged these challenges and offered meaningful interpretive lenses through which to understand them. You can find R. Brody's book here: https://www.amazon.com/Ethics-Our-Fighters-Jewish-Morality/dp/159264676X This week's episode has been sponsored by Shuli Rockoff in observance of the Yahrzeit for her mother, Hudell Ruchama bat Avraham Shlomo and Etta Malka on the 25th of Tammuz.

Parshat Korah

Whose Power is it Really

Parshat Korach:  The Prophet Samuel And Korach's Sin  -  English only.  How is Korach's sin related to Samuel the prophet?  This is a translation of the podcast posted on June 30, 2025. Recorded June 28, 2025.

What does it mean to go against the current—to stand for truth when lies are popular, to choose humility when culture celebrates pride, and to pass down blessing even when we've inherited brokenness? Listen to Psalm 49—written by the sons of Korach, the very ones who refused to repeat their father's mistakes. It's never too late to turn the ship around. Come be encouraged, challenged, and reminded that in Messiah Yeshua, there's always opportunity for new direction.

The Three Weeks Of Mourning Through The Eyes Of Jeremiah  Part 4:  Parshat Shelach And The Punishment Of Joshua, Caleb And Jeremiah  -  English only.  On Tisha B'Av, Joshua and Caleb were punished with the whole nation. Why? These two men tried to persuade the nation to obey God!  June 21, 2025.  This year, 2025, the three weeks of mourning begins with the fast of the fourth month on Sunday, July 13, 2025.

In this conversation with Matan faculty member Simi Peters, we analyze Korach's tactics that made his rebellion an initial success and what ultimately caused it to fail. In her unique way, Simi weaves in midrashic traditions that underscore deeper points present in the narrative's foundation. These parsha conversations are being recorded in an ever-changing reality here in Israel. This episode opens with some thoughts about the current moment, with full understanding that reality can change in an instant. With prayers for the success of our unbelievable armed forces and for the return of the hostages. This week's episode has been sponsored by Eve and Jonathan Shiff in honor of Israel's soldiers and the hostages and their families – praying for success and safety, in body and soul. Our Bamidbar Series explores different forms of leadership in the book and in the Jewish world.

Finding Hashem in the Pause

I Know. We are all feeling it. The war in Israel and our brothers and sisters suffering in bomb shelters as missiles mercilessly rain down upon them. In our class today we share chizuk and ideas to help us gain clarity and focus as jews always do in the face of evil. Along the way we come face to face with those who put their mouths and false pretenses before the truths their eyes are showing them.
