Chelek Lamed Daled pg 24. The Torah warns us not to forget what we've learned, yet if someone forgets because circumstances genuinely prevented them from reviewing, it isn't considered "forgetting" at all. Why? Because they never let go of the Torah - the Torah remained their priority. Sometimes, what looks like stepping away is actually the deepest expression of connection. Reb Zeira intentionally forgot the Talmud Bavli he had learned so he could fully absorb the Talmud Yerushalmy. Moshe broke the Luchos to preserve the Torah forever. In both cases, a temporary "loss" became the foundation for something far greater. What does Hashem want from me? Am i aligning myself with Torah as my life force? Use that as the guiding force. Am I stepping away ("forgetting") because I'm disconnecting, or because, for this moment, this is what Hashem wants from me? Sometimes moving away from something might be the strongest expression of connection.This Week's Sicha Learning is in Honor of:*An anonymous listener, in honor of her birthday on 6 Av, with brachos for herself and her family in all areas.* Chaya Bunia bas Leah Frieda, whose birthday is on Tishah B'Av, wishing you a shnas bracha v'hatzlacha!*Rochel Kaplan - l'ilui nishmas her father, Yehuda Leib ben Peretz Mochkin, whose yahrtzeit is on Tishah B'Av.

She teaches Judaic studies at Ohel Chana, a girls' school in Los Angeles, and she hosts a podcast called Weekly Sichos, which spreads Chasidut [Hasidism] through teachings from the Lubavitcher Rabbi to women around the world.Now, she sits down with Rabbi Dr. Benji Levy to answer eighteen questions on Jewish mysticism including the role of prayer for women and how Jewish mysticism can positively influence our relationships with others.Here are our questions: What is Jewish mysticism?How were you introduced to Jewish mysticism?In an ideal world, would all Jews be mystics?What do you think of when you think of God?What is the purpose of the Jewish people?How does prayer work?What is the goal of Torah study?Does Jewish mysticism view men and women the same?Should Judaism be hard or easy?Why did God create the world? Can humans do something that is against God's will?What do you think of when you think about Moshiach?Is the State of Israel part of the final redemption?What is the greatest challenge facing the world today?How has modernity changed Jewish mysticism?What differentiates Jewish mysticism from the mysticism of other religions? Does one need to be religious to study Jewish mysticism?Can mysticism be dangerous?How has Jewish mysticism affected your relationships with yourself and with others?What is a Jewish teaching that you always take with you?

We talk about one thing - Trump's war in Iran - one of the biggest US military operations in two past two decades which - the longer it goes on and the more we find out about it - seems to get more and more confusing. We talk about what was the primary reason to start the war and why now and how to make sense of the variety of contradicting reasons that Trump and his team gave on this and about the equally confusing war aims of this operation and whether this is a regime change or not . About whether the U.S. was just following Israel in its decision and if that's the case why, what are the chances of success of this operation and what does success actually mean, or whether Trump will now seek to de-escalate and retreat or whether he will double down - and much more.

On the afternoon of August 23, 2003, Erie, Pennsylvania pizza delivery driver Brian Wells walked into the local branch of the PNC Bank and handed the teller a note warning that he had a bomb and they had fifteen minutes to hand over $250,000 or it would detonate. Unable to access the vault, the teller gave Wells all the cash on hand and he left as the employees triggered the emergency protocol.Fifteen minutes later, Wells was spotted by police and placed under arrest. However, when they went to put handcuffs on the suspects, the officers discovered that Wells did indeed have an explosive device on him—it was strapped to his neck and rigged to explode. Officers cleared the area, but failed to alert the bomb squad in time and the device eventually exploded, killing Wells just three minutes before the bomb squad arrived.The bizarre death of Brian Wells seemed to bring his brief criminal career to an end; yet as investigators began digging into the background of the delivery driver-turned-bank robber, they discovered the plot to rob the PNC Bank was far more elaborate than anyone had imagined. ReferencesAssociated Press. 2003.

No election in 2025 has been more impacted by the Trump presidency than the elections in Virginia.

So one of Sarah's favorite Democrats, Abigail Spanberger, looks poised for a solid win on Election Day. Meanwhile in the Attorney General race, the Republican incumbent, Jason Miyares could pull off an unexpected comeback, so we talked to voters who are splitting their tickets between Spanberger and Miyares. Former Richmond Times-Dispatch columnist and University of Virginia Center for Politics scholar Jeff Schapiro joins the show to put this year's election in the context of Virginia's broad political evolution.
