פרשת בהר - בחוקתי 2025 Parshat Bahar- Bechukotai
This week's episode with Rabbanit Surale Rosen closes our series on the lived experience of Torah observance.The conversation begins with an idea rooted in our parsha regarding an ethic that may have preceded the official giving of Torah and continues on to explore some of the tensions between Halakhic life and secular sensibilities both in Israel and abroad. When does applying a halakhic frame feel absurd? How might broadening the purview of halakha actually help make its observance more organic? This week's episode has been sponsored in memory of Vita Rachel bat Yaacov Bradfield z"l. Our upcoming Bamidbar series will focus on issues of leadership--Chazak, Chazak, V'nitchazek!

In this powerful class on Parshas Tazria, Rabbi Yisroel Bernath explores why the Torah repeats the phrase “the Kohen shall look.” Drawing on the teachings of the Meshech Chochma, we'll discover the Torah's revolutionary approach to healing—not just diagnosing the symptoms, but seeing the entire person. This class reveals the spiritual roots of what modern medicine now calls "holistic care," and challenges us to become more compassionate, wise, and soul-aware in how we view others—and ourselves.Key Takeaways:Double Vision: The Torah instructs the Kohen to look twice—once at the affliction, and once at the person—because true healing begins with empathy, not just analysis.Timing is Everything: There are moments when even truth must wait—for the sake of kindness, joy, and emotional safety.See the Soul: Before declaring someone “impure,” see their heart. Understand the difference between rebellion and pain, behavior and backstory.Holistic Before It Was In: Thousands of years before integrative medicine became a buzzword, the Torah already taught us to heal bodies by caring for souls.Relational Wisdom: Whether in parenting, teaching, or friendships—don't just fix the problem.
