In this episode of the 18Forty Podcast, we talk to Eli Rubin—a scholar, Lubavitcher Hasid, and author of the forthcoming book Kabbalah and the Rupture of Modernity: An Existential History of Chabad Hasidism—about life's big cosmic questions.Chabad and the Rebbe are so ubiquitous in Jewish life that we tend to overlook Chabad's underlying philosophy. Here, we take the time to look under the hood of the Mitzvah Tank. In this episode we discuss:At its core, what is Hasidism about, and how did the Rebbe implement these essentials in a new time and a new land? What should we picture when we imagine moshiach? Has Chabad splintered off from mainstream Judaism the way some have feared?Tune in to hear a conversation about what it means to want moshiach now. Interview begins at 11:27. Eli Rubin, a contributing editor at Chabad.org, is the author of Kabbalah and the Rupture of Modernity: An Existential History of Chabad Hasidism (forthcoming from Stanford University Press). He was a co-author of Social Vision: The Lubavitcher Rebbe's Transformative Paradigm for the World (Herder and Herder, 2019). He studied Chassidic literature and Jewish Law at the Rabbinical College of America and at Yeshivot in the UK, the US and Australia, and received his PhD from the Department of Hebrew and Jewish Studies, University College London.References:Kabbalah and the Rupture of Modernity: An Existential History of Chabad Hasidism by Eli RubinSocial Vision: The Lubavitcher Rebbe's Transformative Paradigm for the World by by Philip Wexler, Eli Rubin, and Michael Wexler18Forty Podcast: “Eli Rubin: How Do Mysticism and Social Action Intersect”Tanya, Part I; Likkutei Amarim 36Open Secret: Postmessianic Messianism and the Mystical Revision of Menahem Mendel Schneerson by Elliot R.

There's something uncanny happening in the background of the Israel-Hamas war right now. Do you see it? The Torah seems to be predicting... everything. In the recent Torah portion of Noah's Arc, "Hamas" is mentioned twice... TWICE! Since then there have been other important correlations that have acted as milestones in this conflict. With the eyes of the world focused on the Middle East, Torah-observant Jews have made it clear that there's something to be said about the coincidental appearance of Hamas in this story and in other parts of the Torah. As someone who regularly observes and studies the Torah, Rabbi Avrohom Rapoport (also known as Rabbi Raps) connects the dots and helps us understand why there's no such thing as coincidence. In a dvar Torah unlike any other, Rabbi Raps teaches host Chaz Volk why this occurs and what it means for the future of the Jewish state.

Mark is delighted to welcome his good friend, Rabbi Moshe Scheiner, to the podcast this week. Rabbi Scheiner was born and raised in Brooklyn, New York, and he holds a Masters degree of Talmudic studies and Jewish philosophy from the Rabbinical College of America. He has also lectured to communities in Australia, New Zealand, Taiwan, Singapore, Colombia, and other communities throughout South America and the United States. In 1994, he became the founding Rabbi of the Palm Beach Synagogue, and he and Mark met almost two years ago on a United Hatzalah Mission which was the beginning of their friendship around Torah that remains to this day. The passage Rabbi Scheiner has selected for today is Genesis 45:4. After a brief discussion about Rabbi Scheiner’s practical and inspirational daily Torah reflections, the pair explore the context of today’s passage, and then embark on a remarkably insightful analysis of the text, drawing out its relevance to the present day offered from the passage and each other. They then look at the example of reframing or narrative therapy the passage offers, the impact that Joseph’s mindset has had upon future generations right up to today, and provide powerful examples both of Pope John XXlll’s reference to this text, and of being able to begin again regardless of the painful events one has endured. Rabbi Scheiner finishes by sharing the two profound lessons he has learned about mankind. As Mark states, his esteemed guest provides a ‘characteristically fascinating conversation about Torah and how it can inspire us and help us live more meaningful lives’, and you have the unique privilege today to share in this knowledge and wisdom. Episode Highlights: Rabbi Scheiner’s daily practical and inspirational Torah reflections The context of today’s passage The common life themes found in this passage including personal hurts and forgiveness, family feuds, betrayal, overcoming trauma from childhood, bonds which should never be severed, living in the present rather than the past, rebukes, and beginning again Reframing or narrative therapy The impact of Joseph’s mindset upon future generations The significance of the term ‘brother’ Pope John XXlll’s deeply meaningful reference to this passage A powerful example of choosing to begin again Two lessons Rabbi Scheiner has learned about mankind Quotes: “What others do to you, that is not the reason it is really happening…God is in control...find the purpose and the meaning in every experience in life.” “Joseph, in this case…is really the first person to manifest the psychological principle we now know as ‘reframing’.” “I think Joseph’s mindset has really infected every Jewish mind, and that’s the way we survive through millenniums of antisemitism and oppression.” “By declaring himself to be their brother…in an existential sense, he is giving them the permission to change their relationship.” “It’s as close as he can come to an apology for the history of his predecessor and predecessors…that the relationship between the Catholic Church and the Jewish people could begin to change.” “Repentance or forgiveness is giving someone the space to become the type of person that would never have hurt you in the first place.” “There’s just so much pregnant in every passage in the Torah.” “You never know the depth of someone’s goodness.” Genesis 45:4 Then Joseph said to his brothers, “Come forward to me.” And when they came forward, he said, “I am your brother Joseph, he whom you sold into Egypt." https://www.sefaria.org/Genesis.45.4?lang=bi&with=all&lang2=en Links: The Rabbi’s Husband homepage: http://therabbishusband.com/ Mark’s Twitter: https://twitter.com/markgerson?lang=en

I enjoyed this wonderful conversation as we explored the following profound and often perplexing questions: Why forgive? How does psychology define forgiveness and how do Judaism, Christianity and Islam see forgiveness? Does forgiving mean we are pardoning bad behavior? Do you need the offender to participate if you want to forgive? What steps can we take to forgive and how do we do it? Guests for this episode bring the perspectives of Judaism, Islam and Christianity to the topic. Rabbi Mendel Dubov serves as faculty at the Rabbinical College of America in Morristown, NJ, USA and as Director of Chabad in Sussex County, NJ. Saifulla Chaudahry serves as Propagation Secretary for Ahmadiyya Muslim Community of North Jersey. Pastor Michael Bos, Ph.D. serves as the Senior Minister of Marble Collegiate Church of New York City and is the President of the Collegiate Churches of New York. Dr. Bos established the first interfaith religious diplomacy center on the Arabian Peninsula, and received the U.S. Ambassador’s Award for Community Service. Psychology studies have found that when people forgive it decreases anxiety, depression and obsessive thinking about the offender. Multiple studies have also found that forgiveness improves mood, psychological health and the quality of one’s relationships overall. To read & explore further about forgiveness , may I suggest starting with a search of psychology studies by Robert Enright and Richard Fitzgibbons.
