Welcome to our daily Bitachon . We're back on track with our Sha'ar Bechina . We left off talking about a principle that everything that we have in the world is made of smaller building blocks that are built up and then they are broken down into their particles and start the cycle again. And he asks of us to analyze this. And I'd like to give a very simple example. Again, these are things that for those that are not interested in science class, this might not be for you. But it's a responsibility for all of us to look into these things. Anyone that ever listened to Rabbi Miller knows that he was intoxicated with the concept of an apple. And he spoke about an apple a lot. We're going to talk about something. I didn't hear it directly from him, but I'm sure he would be happy with this as well. So what happens when you eat an apple? How does your the apple go in your mouth and get absorbed in your system? And here's the journey. It starts in the mouth. In the mouth, we start with what we'll call the mash, like a mashed potato, mashed apple. There's throughout this system, which is very interesting, there's a physical component and a chemical component. And I'll explain. The physical component is you chew the apple and break it into smaller pieces. That's physical. There's a chemical component, which is your saliva has enzymes, one of them known as amylase, which starts to break down some of the apple's carbohydrates into simple sugars in your mouth already. It means your saliva is a separate discussion that Chovot Halevavot talks about about the multiple tasks of given things that we have in our system. Besides the saliva lubricating your mouth and helping the food go down and you don't have another fact you don't have a dry mouth and your palate sticking to your tongue, the saliva also contains these enzymes. That's the first step. Then it goes to the stomach, which we'll call the acid bath. And again, there's something physical that the stomach muscles churn the apple pieces mixing it with the digestive juices, similar to your washing machine that spins around. And then, and that's sometimes you have cramps in your stomach because your stomach is churning. And then we have the chemical aspect, which is there's glands in your stomach lining. That means it's a washing machine that releases detergent at the same time. Wonder of wonders. The glands that are in your stomach lining release strong acid and enzymes. And this creates this acidic semi-liquid mixture called chyme, spelled C-H-Y-M-E. At this point, the apple's fiber and some of the other parts remain intact. So it's the first stage. Then we go on to the small intestine, which we'll call the nutrient factory. Again, there's a physical aspect, the contractions of the small intestine move the chyme through the intestine, mixing it thoroughly. We know that this contraction is called peristalsis, which is a wonder in itself that you can stand on your head and the food will still go in the proper direction. It's not gravity, but it's the muscle contractions that move it down. And then we have a chemical aspect as well. The pancreas and liver send in more juices. That means this is not coming from the stomach lining, this is coming from an outside factory. And powerful enzymes, and they break down the apple's carbohydrates and proteins and fat components back into their basic building blocks. And this is our key point. We are now getting into the basic building blocks, the glucose and amino acids. And then, once we've broken it down into these tiny nutrient molecules, they're absorbed through the intestinal walls into your bloodstream, which carries them to your body's cells for energy. So this is important. This is where the real breakdown happens. We get things into the microscopic size and they could be absorbed. Our next step is the large intestine or the colon, which is the waste collector. The leftover material, the undigestible fiber that and other parts that resisted earlier digestion, now move into the large intestine. Again, there's a chemical aspect. There's trillions of gut bacteria in the colon that ferment the fiber, breaking it down in a process similar to brewing, like you brew beer. And it produces beneficial byproducts that help you keep your gut healthy. And again, there's more absorption, this time mostly the remaining water, which helps solidify the waste. And finally, the elimination where the solid waste material that is not digested is moved into the. final area and it's expelled from the body. Wonder of wonders what just happened to a simple apple? And when you say borei pri ha'eitz and בורא נפשות רבות וחסרונם there's what to think about. And again this is what we need to do in sha'ar habechina . It's beautiful if you think about it to appreciate all these different things that are happening on a daily basis and it's happening without us even thinking about it. I can't say without exerting energy. It does exert energy, not energy that you're feeling like lifting weights, but there's energy that's why you burn calories when you digest things. That's why we all know that you can't go running after you ate because the blood is necessary and the energy is necessary for the digestive system. So without you knowing while you're sleeping all this digestion is happening and beautiful things that you don't even

Set the captives free: The Bible's real message on slavery & redemption (Exodus 21–22; Jeremiah 34)

Key takeaways from this study God's laws were always intended as a blueprint for human dignity, justice and release from oppression, laying the groundwork for true freedom. Heaven's agenda is not simply legalistic rule-keeping, but the transformation of individuals and societies toward compassion and liberty. By making freedom the end goal for slaves — especially Israelite slaves — God modeled a system intended to end cycles of generational bondage. The Torah's pathway for Gentiles to join Israel is Heaven's open door for all nations to enter spiritual freedom. Biblical laws set higher standards for humane treatment, signaling Heaven's desire that all people, regardless of status, can be liberated. Prophetic interventions (like Jeremiah 34) show that God rewards societies that extend liberty, but withdraws his favor when they renege, underscoring that freedom is dear to God's heart. The arrival of Yeshua the Messiah (Jesus the Christ) is the culmination of Heaven’s freedom goal: the offer of spiritual freedom and redemption to every nation, tribe and tongue. God is deeply responsive to repentance, faith and action — always ready to set captives free, both physically and spiritually. The ultimate intention of Heaven is for all people to know freedom — not merely by law, but through relationship, faith, and loving community. The journey from slavery to sonship is the story of God's heart for humanity: that every nation would experience deliverance and restoration through His mercy and truth. It's tempting to skip the difficult parts of the Bible, like the ordinances of slavery in Exodus (שְׁמוֹת Shemot). Here, we don't dodge them. We face them head-on, recognizing that Scripture's laws were in response to brutal ancient societies but also express the heart of a redeeming God Who works through history, not around it. The תּוֹרָה Torah (“instruction,” “teaching”) is not just a book of do's and don'ts. It's an unfolding revelation — God giving His people not only laws (מִצְווֹת mitzvot) but the principles and spirit behind them. Today we’re seeking those principles, to “rightly divide the word of truth” (2Timothy 2:15), so we can discern what God is up to in these difficult passages. The big picture: Law, mercy and becoming a distinct people to do something Let's remember, Israel was called to be a “kingdom of priests and a holy nation” (גּוֹי קָדוֹשׁ goy kadosh; Exodus 19:6) — not to mimic Egypt or Babylon but to model God's justice and compassion. We're not supposed to copy distorted theologies or twisted histories, like those that fueled the Spanish Inquisition (tragically insisting on forced conversions and outlawing Torah practice). Instead, “placing the ordinances before them” (Exodus 21:1) challenged Israel to treat every person — citizen, foreigner or even slave — with more dignity, fairness, and hope for freedom than the surrounding world expected. We're still being called to do the same. When we read these laws, our immediate reaction is often that they—and the culture in which they were given—seem strange, even very strange, to us. Human nature does not change, and people who desire to exercise absolute power over others will always find excuses to do so. As believers, we have an obligation to advocate for the freedom and fair treatment of those who are enslaved. Laws about slavery: An honest look The structure of biblical servitude Exodus 21–22 doesn't ignore slavery. It regulates and humanizes it within a radically unfree world. In Hebrew, the word is עֶבֶד eved (“servant” or “slave”). Slavery in ancient Israel could arise from debt, crime or poverty. But the Torah takes that bitter reality and bends it toward compassion and eventual liberty. Israelite slaves (עֶבֶד עִבְרִי eved Ivri): They were set free after six years of service. “In the seventh year he shall go out as a free man without payment” (Exodus 21:2 NASB 1995). Gentile slaves (עֶבֶד מִן־הַגּוֹיִם eved min ha-goyim): Non-Israelite slaves served longer, but the law provided avenues for dignity and even conversion and inclusion. The key was always freedom (חֵרוּת cherut, ἐλευθερία eleutheria). “God encourages us to not just say, ‘Well, there's the law.' Rather, He teaches us the principle behind the law — so we can apply it, even as times change.” Responsibilities and restoration Torah insisted that masters provide for their servants and their families. “If his master gives him a wife, and she bears him sons or daughters, the wife and her children shall belong to her master, and he shall go out alone” (Exodus 21:4 NASB 1995). But here's the twist: upon release, Israelites were to be given resources (Deuteronomy 15:13-14). Slaves could, with what they received, “buy” freedom for their wives and children — a path to holistic release. The gentile's path to inclusion An incredible provision: any Gentile (גּוֹי goy, plural גּוֹיִים goyim) who embraced the God of Israel became “as a native of the land” (Leviticus 19:34). The Torah's inclusive heart was always beating — the servant wasn't forever defined by their starting point; they could become part of the family of God. The moment he says, “I am not going to be Gentile anymore, I'm going to follow the God of Israel,” he's now a sojourner among Israel (Exodus 12:48-49; Numbers 15:15). The reality is that throughout most of the Ancient Near East, there were few legal avenues for slaves to gain freedom, whereas in Israel there were legal mechanisms that allowed slaves to become free. The Torah's laws, which may appear inequitable at first glance, were in fact more merciful to slaves than the laws common throughout the Ancient Near East. Discipline and ethics: Justice with limits The Torah sought to curb human power, even in discipline. Masters were prohibited from using lethal force against slaves: “But if the slave survives a day or two, no vengeance shall be taken; for he is his property. If, however, the slave lives only a day or two after being beaten … he shall surely be punished.” Exodus 21:20-21 paraphrase Jewish tradition explains: discipline could only use non-lethal tools—not rocks (אֶבֶן ehven, “stone”) or clubs (מַקֵּל makel, “rod”) liable to cause death. If a slave was permanently injured (e.g., lost an eye or tooth), that servant went free (Exodus 21:26-27). This is the Torah's חֶסֶד khesed/chesed (“mercy”), limiting what was culturally normal — even while working within a broken world. Consequences of injustice In parallel passage Jeremiah 34, King צִדְקִיָּהוּ Tzidkiyahu (Zedekiah) decreed liberty for Israelite slaves, an “Emancipation Proclamation” in obedience to Torah. For a moment, Heaven's pleasure was evident — the Babylonian army withdrew. “…Proclaim liberty to them, that every man should set free his male servant and every man his female servant — a Hebrew man or a Hebrew woman — so that no one should keep them, an Israelite his brother, in bondage.” Jeremiah 34:9-10 paraphrase But when the people reneged — re-enslaving those liberated — God pronounced judgment, equating their act to kidnapping (חָטַף khataf/chataph), a capital offense (Exodus 21:16): “… I will give Zedekiah king of Judah and his princes into the hand of their enemies … and burn it with fire ….” Jeremiah 34:21-22 NASB 1995 The prophetic message? Justice and mercy aren't just ideals. They're the very conditions for God's protection and blessing. Freedom is non-negotiable. Even kings are not above God's law. Faith, works and living out God's heart Apostle יַעֲקֹב Ya'akov (James) famously wrote about faith in Heaven that doesn’t bring life to the world: “For just as the body without the spirit is dead, so also faith without works is dead.” Our discussion reinforced that belief and action are inseparable. Kings, like Zedekiah, couldn't just declare good intentions. They had to enforce righteousness — for themselves and their society. Faith (אֱמוּנָה emunah) doesn't just reside in the mind. It must change how we respond to suffering, injustice, or even ancient laws — pushing us to build communities where no one stays in bondage. Messiah: The fulfillment of freedom and inclusion The whole of Scripture is a story arc bending toward Messiah — יֵשׁוּעַ Yeshua (“salvation”). The Torah's complex social instructions longed for something greater: spiritual and ultimately physical redemption for all. Yeshua quoted one of Heaven’s key reformer prophets when He announced His mission: “The Spirit of the LORD is upon Me, because He anointed Me to preach the gospel to the poor. He has sent Me to proclaim release [ἄφεσις aphesis, “release/freedom”] to the captives, and recovery of sight to the blind, to set free those who are oppressed.” Luke 4:18 NASB 1995; Isaiah 61:1 And Apostle Paul (formerly, Sha'ul) wrote: It was for freedom (ἐλευθερία eleutheria) that Messiah set us free; therefore keep standing firm…. Galatians 5:1 NASB 1995 Messiah is the answer to both the physical and deepest spiritual oppression. He is the One who brings both Jew and Gentile, slave and free, into “the glorious liberty of the children of God” (Romans 8:21 NASB 1995). Principles behind the Law: Applying God's heart today Laws without principles can become cold and lifeless. God wants us to know why He commands as much as what He commands. The Torah teaches us to understand the “spirit” (רוּחַ ruach) behind the mitzvot. Yeshua taught (Matt 22:34-40: Mark 12:28-31; Luke 10:25-37) that the three-fold loving the LORD (mind/emotions, life, wealth/resources; Deuteronomy 6:4-5) and loving others as oneself (Leviticus 19:18). When faced with a new or difficult situation, it is the principle of freedom, justice, khesed (mercy) and shalom (contentment) that should guide us. If we understand Heaven’s principle, then we can apply it in a positive way and affect a whole lot of people, including ourselves and the outcome we live through. Repentance, intercession and God's compassion A thread through Scripture is Heaven’s willingness and eagerness to listen, to show mercy and to change a decree in response to repentance (תְּשׁוּבָה teshuvah, μετάνοια metanoia, “return/repentance”) and prayer. Whether we look at Moses interceding after the Golden Calf (Exodus 32), or Abraham negotiating for Sodom (Genesis 18), or Jeremiah weeping for his people, we see a God who invites dialogue and delights to show mercy: So the LORD changed His mind about the harm which He said He would do to His people. Exodus 32:14 NASB 1995 Our relationship with God is rooted in covenant (בְּרִית berit), not unalterable fate. We can plead for mercy, intervene for others, and participate with God in the work of redemption. From Egypt to Messiah: A journey of increasing inclusion The arc of Scripture is toward ever-greater inclusion and freedom, not less. The Torah began by regulating and humanizing ancient social norms. The prophets called the people to deeper justice and loyal-kindness: “To do justly, to love mercy (חֶסֶד chesed), and to walk humbly with your God” (Micah 6:8). And in Messiah, the doors are thrown open wide: “There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free man, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus” (Galatians 3:28 NASB 1995). God's heart, from start to finish, is to proclaim liberty (דְּרוֹר deror, “release/freedom”) to the captives and recovery for all. Proclaiming freedom to the nations The disturbing reality of slavery in the Bible is not the last word. God's commandments, even where they accommodated ancient realities, were always subversive — pushing toward a world of inclusion, compassion, and release for all peoples. We are called, in Messiah, to “let justice roll down like waters and righteousness like an ever-flowing stream” (Amos 5:24 NASB 1995). So let's be a people who oppose bondage wherever we see it — physical, spiritual, social — and who open the doors to any who wish to become sons and daughters of the Most High. May we, as those native to Israel and those grafted into her who have found freedom in Messiah, be quick to share that hope: “If the Son makes you free, you will be free indeed” (John 8:36 NASB 1995). Shalom and blessings as you seek and extend God's liberating love to every nation (גּוֹי goy) and every neighbor. May the God Who brought Israel out of מִצְרָיִם Mitzrayim (Egypt) continue to bring all His children into freedom and shalom. The post Set the captives free: The Bible's real message on slavery & redemption (Exodus 21–22; Jeremiah 34) appeared first on Hallel Fellowship.

Reciting “Va'yebarech David” and Giving Three Coins to Sedaka

Although technically Pesukeh De'zimra ends after the verses of "Baruch Hashem Le'olam Amen Ve'amen," at which point we should, in principle, proceed to Yishtabah – the concluding blessing of Pesukeh De'zimra – it is customary to add Va'yebarech David as well as Shirat Ha'yam. This is an ancient practice, instituted around one thousand years ago. The section of Va'yebarech David consists of verses from the Book of Dibreh Ha'yamim I (29:10-13) and a series of verses from the Book of Nehemya (9:5-11). The section of Shirat Ha'yam, of course, is the song sung by Beneh Yisrael after crossing the sea (Shemot, chapter 15), preceded by two introductory verses ("Va'yosha Hashem…"). The Sha'ar Ha'kavanot writes that one should stand while reciting the first 40 words of Va'yebarech David, meaning, through the words "Ata Hu Hashem Ha'Elokim." He adds that the first letters of these final five words – Alef, Heh, Yod and Heh – spell the Name of Hashem ("E-heyeh") associated with "Keter," the highest of the Sefirot (emanations). As standing during the recitation of these forty words is only customary, and not a strict requirement, one who finds it difficult to stand may certainly sit. While reciting the words "Ve'ata Moshel Ba'kol" in Va'yebarech David, one should give some money to charity. Specifically, one gives three coins – he should first give two coins together, and then a third coin by itself. This practice was taught by the Arizal, but there are indications that its origins date back even earlier. One indication is a testimony that the Rama (Rav Moshe Isserles, 1520-1572) followed this custom of giving charity during Va'yebarech David in his synagogue in Cracow, and the Rama did not have access to the Arizal's teachings. By giving charity during Pesukeh De'zimra, before praying the Amida, one fulfills the custom of Rabbi Elazar, mentioned by the Gemara (Baba Batra 10a), to give charity before praying. The commentaries explain that this should be done so that the charity acts as an advocate on the individual's behalf, helping to ensure the acceptance of his prayers. It has been noted that if Rabbi Elazar, a righteous sage, felt that he needed an advocate, then certainly we, who are on a much lower level, should avail ourselves of such an advocate by giving charity before praying. Some had the custom to give charity each morning twice – when they first entered the synagogue, and then a second time while reciting the words "Ve'ata Moshel Ba'kol." This custom is brought by the Kaf Ha'haim (Rav Yaakob Haim Sofer, Baghdad-Jerusalem, 1870-1939), who tells the story of a person who consistently followed this practice, but one day failed to do so. That night, he dreamt that he was harshly chastised for deviating from this practice. Interestingly enough, Rav Ben Sion Mussafi brings a tradition among Iraqi Jews that whenever the Kaf Ha'haim tells a story about somebody without naming him, this story is actually about himself. We may thus conclude that the Kaf Ha'haim personally observed this custom to give charity when entering the synagogue and then a second time during the recitation of "Ve'ata Moshel Ba'kol." In any event, the consensus among the Poskim is that it suffices to give charity only once, during the recitation of "Ve'ata Moshel Ba'kol," because, as mentioned, the purpose is to give charity before one presents his requests in the Amida prayer. One should preferably give charity not only at Shaharit, but also before Minha and Arbit. The Ben Ish Hai (Rav Yosef Haim of Baghdad, 1833-1909) taught that the act of giving charity is associated with the divine Name of Havaya (which is spelled Yod, Heh, Vav and Heh). The small coin resembles Yod – the smallest letter in the alphabet – and the giver holds it in his hand, with his five fingers, alluding to the letter Heh, which in Gematria equals 5. When he extends his arm, he forms the letter Vav, which is long and straight, and the coin is then received in the poor individual's hand, which represents the second Heh in the Name. The Ben Ish Hai adds that if a poor person is not present, and one is setting aside the money for charity, then he should place the coin with his right hand into a pouch in his left hand. In his work Od Yosef Hai (Parashat Vayigash), the Ben Ish Hai writes that there were Sadikim who fulfilled this custom even on Shabbat. Before Shabbat, they would prepare two envelopes – one with two coins, and another with one coin, and place them in a designated location. Then, on Shabbat, while reciting "Ve'ata Moshel Ba'kol," they would think of those envelopes, allocating them for charity. They would then give these coins to the poor after Shabbat. Even one who did not designate these envelopes before Shabbat can fulfill this practice on Shabbat by pledging in his mind during the recitation of "Ve'ata Moshel Ba'kol" to donate three coins to Sedaka after Shabbat. The Kaf Ha'haim writes that if a person has a bill, and he cannot exchange it for coins, then he should hold it and have in mind to donate the value of two coins within this bill for charity, and then the value of one coin. After several days, when he has donated the full amount of the bill, he should give the bill to charity. If one wishes to give charity from the bill before Minha and Arbit, when speaking is permissible, he should make this pledge verbally.

Welcome to our daily Bitachon series. We're going through Sha'ar HaBechinah . We learned yesterday that we have a responsibility to open the wrapping on the gift that God gave us. One of the gifts is our body, and there's millions of gifts, and I'm not exaggerating. Let's go through our blood vessels. When you get a cut, it heals. No one thinks about that. You get a scab, big deal. You ever tear your clothing and suddenly it's sewed up by itself? Strange, isn't it? So let's analyze what happens when you get a scab. You say, what do I have to know about this stuff for? Is this going back to science class? Because these are gifts of God, and intellect requires that we appreciate our gifts. So think of your blood vessels like a system of pipes running through your house. The pipe springs a leak, you need a way to patch it up immediately to stop the water, in our case, it's the blood, from flooding out. Well, your body has an automatic emergency repair crew for this exact purpose. The process is called hemostasis. Hemo is blood, stasis means stopping. And there's three main steps. The first one is the squeeze, vasoconstriction, which means the moment a blood vessel is cut, your body's first reaction is to reduce the flow of that area. Now, body's first reaction, you know, what is that? That's a nice scientific term. Who told the body to react? That's God. So the muscles in the wall of the blood vessels tighten and clamp down. The analogy, it's like turning off the main water valve or squeezing a garden hose to stop the flow of the water. This limits how much blood can escape while the repair begins. Number two, the plug, which is called platelet aggregation. The first responders arrive. These are the platelets, tiny sticky cell fragments floating in your blood. They're always there. What happens? When the platelets touch the jagged edge of a broken vessel, they get activated. This is wild. Little microscopic vessels, when they're torn, create a jagged edge. This activates the platelets. They change shape, become spiky and sticky. They clump together at the site of the cut to form a temporary plug. The analogy, think of this like sticking a piece of chewing gum or wet clay over the hole in the pipe. It stops the immediate leak, but it's soft and won't hold for long against high pressure. Stage three, the glue, the coagulation cascade. To make the repair permanent, the blood, the body needs to reinforce the soft platelet plug with something stronger. This is where the coagulation cascade comes in. Dozens of proteins in your blood are called clotting factor. By the way, parenthetically, hemophiliacs don't have clotting factors. But Baruch Hashem , we do. That wakes it up a chain reaction and creates a tough stringy protein called fibrin. It's like a steel mesh or net. It wraps around the soft platelet plug and hardens, turning the chewing gum into reinforced concrete. This creates a solid scab that seals the wound completely until the skin heals underneath. But there's really a step after that, which is the cleanup, which happens days or weeks later. Once the skin and vessel wall have healed underneath the scab, you don't need the clot anymore. Your body releases a different enzyme called plasmin, that acts like a pair of molecular scissors. It cuts the fibrin mesh into tiny pieces. The scab falls off or dissolves and blood flows normally again. This is craziness what's going on inside our body at all times. Now what's interesting, one of the very uncomfortable things is paper cuts. Now, paper cuts just last. Why? They're seemingly so innocent. The answer is because since they're shallow, and they don't cause significant bleeding, the blood clotting system doesn't get triggered and therefore it leaves it as it is. This is just one small little example of the wondrous things that are happening at all times inside of us. And it behooves us to think about it and appreciate it.

Welcome to our daily bitachon . We are talking about Sha'ar HaBechinah and the responsibility for those people that recognize God to share with those that don't, because we're supposed to make God beloved upon others. That's what all people try to do. As we said, if you love someone, you want the rest of the world to love them as well. In the source for this, said the Rambam , was Avraham Avinu , who's called Avraham ohavi , Avraham the one that loves me. There's a beautiful Rashi that brings this out and something beautiful that you could think about every day in your amidah three times a day. בראשית כד ג, Avraham is talking to Eliezer and he says, v'ashbiacha , I want to make you swear by השם אלקי השמים ואלקי הארץ, the God of the heavens and the God of the earth…... So who is the God that he makes them swear by? The God of the heavens and the God of the earth. A few pesukim later, pasuk zayin , Avraham says, Hashem Elokei hashamayim , Hashem , the God of the heavens, that took me out of my father's house. So why now is God referred to only as the God of the heavens, not God of the earth? Rashi explains that originally when Avraham was born, when he was taken out of his father's house, he was only Elokei hashamayim . He was the God of the heavens; nobody knew him down here. So, when he's going back in history and telling Eliezer , the God that took me out of my father's house, that was the God of the heavens. When he's talking to him now in real time, when Avraham already made his change in the world, he now became the God of the heavens and the God of the earth. Why, says Rashi ? שהרגלתיו בפי הבריות. I made him common in the mouth of people. I made him known. The world knew of God because of Avraham . But beforehand, his name was not known in the world. So our father, Avraham , was the first one that made God the God of the earth. Based on this, the Da'at Zekeinim on this spot adds a beautiful thought. He's bothered by a question that everybody asks, which is, the first, let me give you a minute of introduction. In order for a bracha to be classified as a bracha , it has to have the words Hashem , Elokeinu , Melech ha'olam , three things: God, who is the one in charge, and he is the king of the world. If you don't have that, it's not a blessing. Now, sometimes, I can have a blessing like אלקי נשמה שנתת בי doesn't start with that, but it's next to asher yatzar . That's why we want to put those two blessings next to each other. When you have a blessing next to another blessing, it doesn't have to have that. Now, ata kadosh in the amidah or ata gibor in the amidah doesn't start. Well, it's next to the first bracha . But hold on. The first bracha of the amidah is Elokeinu v'Elokei avoteinu . We have Hashem , we have Elokeinu , but where's Melech ha'olam ? Answers Tosafot , that by saying Elokei Avraham , by saying the God of Avraham , that's the equivalent of Melech ha'olam , because Avraham made God Melech ha'olam . He made him king of the world. So therefore I don't have to say king of the world. God of Avraham is the equivalent of king of the world. Very nice. The question is, but why not say Melech ha'olam ? Just say Melech ha'olam . Does it hurt? I have to say Elokei Avraham ? Says the Da'at Zekeinim an unbelievable answer. He says that we want you to know that at the beginning when Avraham came onto the picture, there was no Melech ha'olam . He wasn't known by the world. There was no recognition in the world of God. And therefore, the only way to express is Elokei Avraham . It's the God of Avraham , because through Avraham , the world knew what God was. Rav Yeruchem Levovitz applies this to a Midrash Rabbah in Devarim , parsha three, section three, which tells the following story. About Rav Shimon ben Shetach , he bought a donkey from an Arab, and his students noticed that there was a precious stone around the neck of the donkey. So, the students were all excited and they said to him, ברכת ה' היא תעשיר, the blessing of God makes one wealthy. So look, God blessed you. Rav Shimon ben Shetach says, חמור לקחתי, אבן טובה לא לקחתי. I bought a donkey. I didn't buy a jewel. Go and return it to the Arab. They brought it back to the Arab, and the Arab says, ברוך השם אלקי שמעון בן שטח. Blessed is the the God of Shimon ben Shetach . That means this Arab, through the way of Shimon ben Shetach acted, he appreciated God. And that's something that we all can do. We can all make people say, wow, this is the God of this person. That reflects on who God is if this person acts this way and that's his God. And that's what Avraham Avinu did. He made the world say Elohei Avraham . And we too could do that in a certain sense. And the way we act and the way we talk, make God beloved upon the world and known.

Daily Emunah Podcast - Daily Emunah By Rabbi David Ashear

A life without emunah and bitachon often leads a person into unnecessary stress, worry, and exertion. A man related that for his entire business career, he opened his store every day at eight in the morning and didn't close until eight at night. He was constantly worried that if he closed even a little earlier, a potential customer would go to his competitor, discover that their product was just as good, and he would lose the customer permanently. That fear, combined with the belief that more hours meant more income, drove him to work grueling twelve-hour days. As he grew older, that schedule became too demanding. But he was terrified to cut back his hours. Then someone introduced him to Sha'ar HaBitachon . After learning it, he discovered that he could safely ease his worries and reduce his hours. But hearing the ideas once wasn't enough for him to actually change. He learned each section again and again, going through the entire chapter five times, until the message sank deeply into his heart. Only then did he calmly begin closing his store at 6 p.m. instead of 8. Since that day, his financial situation has only improved. He said that he doesn't understand how, but he earns more money now than he did with twelve-hour days. The explanation is simple: Hashem is in charge of parnassah , and when we genuinely internalize that belief and live according to it, Hashem rewards that trust. It is not our job to figure out how Hashem will send us our livelihood. It is only our job to make a regular hishtadlut , believe and pray. A woman told that she is an only child and her father passed away many years ago. Baruch Hashem, she married and built a beautiful family. A few days before Sukkot this year, a FedEx envelope was delivered to their home. She assumed it was for her husband, so she gave it to him. He opened it and found a check for a very large amount of money — at a moment when they desperately needed it. They had no idea who would be sending such a sum. They investigated and discovered the remarkable chain of events behind it. Forty years earlier, her grandfather had loaned a friend $50,000. The friend never repaid it, and over time, everyone forgot about it — except for the One who forgets nothing. The grandfather passed away, and so did her father. On his own deathbed, the old friend remembered the debt and wanted to leave this world with a clean slate. He instructed his family to repay all of his outstanding debts, including the one owed to her grandfather. Since her grandfather was no longer alive, they divided the money among his children. And because her father had passed away and she was an only child, she received her father's full share. A forgotten debt from decades earlier, crossing generations, arrived at their doorstep precisely when they needed it most. While they were trying to figure out how to pay their bills, Hashem was preparing their salvation decades in advance. Hashem is the One who provides parnassah. Those who recognize this live with far greater peace of mind, knowing that their livelihood is already in Hashem's hands — and always has been.

Most leaders talk about transforming hospitality. Bashar Wali actually walked away from a $150 million hotel portfolio to do it. The founder of This Assembly, Wali is building a new kind of hospitality ecosystem, one centered on emotion, belonging, and human connection rather than automation and efficiency. In this episode, Dean Arun Upneja speaks with Wali about why the future of hospitality isn't just digital, but deeply human. From challenging the idea that loyalty can be bought with points to exploring how AI should enhance emotional intelligence, Wali urges leaders to rethink what makes hotels truly memorable. A celebrated thought leader and frequent speaker at BU SHA, Wali is known for his powerful TED Talk on why “humanity matters more than material luxuries” and for his keynote at the 2024 BU Hospitality Leadership Summit. With more than 20 years of leadership experience at companies like Wyndham International, Starwood, and Provenance Hotels, he continues to inspire the industry with his conviction that hospitality isn't a transaction; it's a feeling. And in an AI-driven world, that feeling may be the most valuable asset of all. Email us at shadean@bu.eduThe “Distinguished” podcast is produced by Boston University School of Hospitality Administration.

Daily Halacha Podcast - Daily Halacha By Rabbi Eli J. Mansour

In some editions of the Siddur, several words are added to the text of Baruch She'amar on Shabbat. However, these additions are incorrect. The text of Baruch She'amar – which, according to tradition, was revealed to the Ansheh Kenesset Ha'gedola (Men of the Great Assembly) on a piece of paper that fell from the heavens – contains precisely 87 words, and this is the exact text that we should recite. There are some editions of the Siddur in which additions for Shabbat appear before Baruch She'amar. One may recite these additions, though he should ensure to have in mind that they are not said as part of Baruch She'amar, but rather comprise a separate text. The custom is to stand during the recitation of Baruch She'amar. However, since standing is required only by force of custom, and not as a strict Halachic obligation, one who is ill or otherwise frail may sit. Our custom is to hold the front two Sisit of the Tallit in our hand during the recitation of Baruch She'amar. This is based on a Kabbalistic teaching mentioned in the Sha'ar Ha'kavanot (a work based on the teachings of Rav Haim Vital, 1542-1620), according to which there is a deep connection between Baruch She'amar and Sisit. The Ben Ish Hai (Rav Yosef Haim of Baghdad, 1833-1909) adds that one should kiss the Sisit upon concluding Baruch She'amar, as an expression of love and affection for the Misva of Sisit. In the phrase "Ha'mehulal Be'feh Amo," there are some who say "Be'fi" instead of "Be'feh." However, this is incorrect. The proper text is "Be'feh." Significantly, the word "Be'feh" in Gematria equals 87 – the number of words in Baruch She'amar. The correct pronunciation of the final word of Baruch She'amar is "Ba'tishbahot," and not "Ba'tushbahot." One who arrives in the synagogue late, and skips Pesukeh De'zimra in order to recite the Amida together with the congregation, does not recite Baruch She'amar afterward. This Beracha is to be recited only before the Amida. (This applies also to Yishtabah, the concluding Beracha of Pesukeh De'zimra.) The first four words of Baruch She'amar are "Baruch She'amar Ve'haya Ha'olam," the first letters of which (Bet, Shin, Vav, Heh) spell the word "Be'shaveh" – "equal." This has been understood as alluding that reciting Baruch She'amar properly earns us rewards equal to the rewards granted to the angels for serving G-d. Moreover, these four words express praise to Hashem for bringing the world into existence – and so reciting this blessing properly helps us tap into G-d's creative powers. So often, we need Hashem to bring us a salvation, to "create" a solution for us. People frequently approach me asking how they can earn something that they so desperately need. One thing we can do is to recite Baruch She'amar properly, slowly, from the Siddur, and with concentration, thinking about how Hashem created the world from sheer nothingness, and in this merit we will, please G-d, be worthy of Him "creating" the solutions that we all need in our lives.

Violée à 13 ans. Tabassée à 14 ans et brûlée vive à 15 ans. C'est l'acharnement enduré par Shaïna Hansye, en deux ans d'intervalle. Un enfer perpétré par deux de ses petits amis qui, sans même se concerter, lui ont fait payer sa réputation de "fille facile" qu'ils avaient eux-mêmes construite de toute pièce. La jeune fille porte plainte à deux reprises avant sa mort. Lors de ses auditions au commissariat et de ses confrontations avec ses agresseurs, elle a été traitée comme une accusée au lieu d'être considérée comme une victime, selon celle qui est devenue son avocate à titre posthume. Pourquoi, malgré les plaintes, n'a-t-elle pas été protégée ? Comment est-il possible que cette descente aux enfers n'ait pas pu être arrêtée ? La voix du crime de cet épisode sur les trois affaires Shaïna, c'est Maître Negar Haeri, avocate de la famille de la jeune fille. Elle témoigne pour "réhabiliter la parole de Shaïna".

Jan Warmus is the director across Europe at EMCD — one of Europe's fastest-growing crypto super apps with over 400,000 verified users. EMCD is positioning itself as a "Web2.5" bridge, offering fiat ramps, staking, and other retail-friendly crypto services in a highly compliant, accessible format. Why you should listen EMCD is a full-spectrum crypto ecosystem. You'll find their mining pool (one of the top global SHA-256 pools), a multi-currency wallet, a savings-type product called Coinhold, and a peer-to-peer exchange all under one roof. Their wallet claims "no seed phrases, no middlemen," and integrates swaps, mining-earnings transfers, and holdings in one interface. They make a clear play for convenience and control: plug-in your mining hardware, track accruals, deploy earnings into savings with up to ~14 % annualized yield (depending on term and asset) — all via one account. Additionally, their mining arm emphasizes daily payouts, low withdrawal thresholds, and global server infrastructure across Europe, Asia, and North America.  EMCD has partnered with Stabul Finance. STABUL Finance operates as a specialized decentralized exchange focused exclusively on stablecoins and tokenized real-world assets. The platform uses what it calls a "fourth-generation" automated market maker (AMM) that builds upon previous technologies like Uniswap and Curve. The EMCD-STABUL partnership addresses a significant market gap. While non-USD currencies account for over 40% of global forex trading, less than 1% of on-chain volume involves non-USD stablecoins. This partnership gives EMCD's 400,000 KYC-verified users access to efficient stablecoin and commodity swaps through STABUL's platform. For EMCD users, this integration means seamless access to international currencies and tokenized assets without leaving their primary platform. Users earning cryptocurrency through mining can convert to stable assets, earn yield through Coinhold, and eventually spend through the upcoming EMCD Card – creating a complete financial ecosystem. The timing aligns with EMCD's broader expansion plans. The company offers zero percent mining fees through 2025 and is preparing to launch its crypto debit card, which will connect directly to users' USDT balances for spending at any Visa or Mastercard merchant.   Supporting links Stabull Finance EMCD Andy on Twitter  Brave New Coin on Twitter Brave New Coin   If you enjoyed the show please subscribe to the Crypto Conversation and give us a 5-star rating and a positive review in whatever podcast app you are using.

We will be answering questions like "How does a Christian explain Israel?" and "Is replacement theology Biblical?"Since this is such a broad and massive topic of discussion, I will be stopping there only to continue this study in the following episode, which will focus on the debunking of Replacement Theology with Sha'ul's (Paul's) own words. Also I will dive into the true and Biblical definition of the term "Synagogue of Satan", how the Bible is a book of Jewish self-criticism and finally, pointing out the fact that Yeshua The Messiah has NOT REPLACED Israel and that anyone who believes in this lie needs to reevaluate their theology and get right with the Messiah of the Jews! To go against Natural Israel (as opposed to the Israeli government) is to go against Yeshua Himself!To my fellow Gentile pastors; do not wait for another, different Israel to return to its Biblical boundaries that were promised to her over and over again by her God in the very Scriptures you read from, every Sunday morning!

Daily Emunah Podcast - Daily Emunah By Rabbi David Ashear

Living Emunah 2830 Bereshit-Never Losing Out by Giving The pasuk says in this week's parashah, " זֶה סֵפֶר תּוֹלְדוֹת אָדָם " (Bereshit 5:1). Chazal tell us that from this pasuk we learn that HaKadosh Baruch Hu showed Adam HaRishon all of the future generations, every single person who would eventually be born. Among the neshamot Adam saw was that of David HaMelech. Adam saw what a lofty neshamah David had, and also that it was destined to leave this world just three hours after entering it. Adam knew he himself had been granted a lifespan of one thousand years. Out of compassion, he decided to donate seventy years of his own life to David HaMelech. Hashem told him to sign on this pledge, and Adam did so. The Shelah HaKadosh writes in his siddur Sha'ar HaShamayim that when Adam was approaching the age of 930, Hashem told him that his time was near. At that moment Adam wanted to retract his pledge, but Hashem told him it was too late — he had already signed. Adam felt he still had more to accomplish in this world, but his time had come, and there was nothing he could do to extend it. On the surface it might appear that Adam lost out by giving away seventy years of his life. However, the Sefer Sas Bimratecha quotes the Zohar, which explains that Adam's main concern was to repair the damage caused by his sin, which had brought such destruction to the world. He had already fasted for 130 years to make a tikkun for it. David HaMelech, too, spent many years of his life immersed in teshuvah for the episode with Batsheva. The Gemara explains that David did not actually commit an aveirah — it only appeared as if he had. Nevertheless, he dedicated his life to teshuvah. All of David's teshuvah went towards rectifying Adam's sin, for David was only alive because of Adam's gift. Had David lived another thirty years, he would have completely rectified Adam's sin and the ge'ulah would have arrived in his time. Even so, the majority of the sin was corrected, and Adam ultimately gained far more from David than he ever could have accomplished with those seventy years himself. The lesson is clear: a person never loses out by giving. So often we use our time or money to help others, and then a thought crosses our mind that we could have done more for ourselves with those resources. But in truth, we never lose out from helping. Whatever we were meant to accomplish for ourselves is accomplished through the very act of chesed — and even more blessing comes in its place. Every neshamah is sent to this world with a mission, and Hashem knows exactly what each soul needs. He gives us the precise opportunities we require in order to fulfill our purpose. A rabbi recently shared a story. A community member called him from the hospital, where he sat at his father's bedside with his siblings. Their father's blood pressure had dropped dangerously low, and the doctor said he was expected to pass away at any moment. The rabbi explained that he had two shiurim to give back-to-back and absolutely could not miss them, but he promised to come as soon as he finished. After his first class, he called to check in. "Status quo," the man replied. After the second class, the same answer. The rabbi then drove forty minutes to the hospital, and still — unbelievably — nothing had changed. The blood pressure remained dangerously low, but the man was still alive. The rabbi told the family they should recite from the siddur the vidduyim and tefillot that are said before a person's passing. They all began reading together. They completed every last word, and the moment they finished, the machine began to beep. Their father's neshamah departed from this world at that precise instant. The rabbi later reflected: it was as if the neshamah was waiting for that final tikkun to be completed, holding on until it was done. Only then was it ready to leave. Each neshamah has its unique mission. As we begin Parashat Bereshit and embark on a new year, we must focus on utilizing every opportunity Hashem sends us to grow and become the people we are meant to be. Shabbat Shalom.

“Quantum computing is taking the laws of nature — light, heat, entanglement — and turning them into a new kind of computer. When that happens, the way we think about Bitcoin's security will have to change forever.” — Charlie ShremThis week on The Charlie Shrem Show, we go deep into the strangest frontier yet: the intersection of Bitcoin, cryptography, and quantum computing.Charlie sits down with Olivier Roussy Newton, OG Bitcoiner and CEO of BTQ Technologies (NASDAQ: BTQ) — a company building at the edge where photons meet blockchains. From his early exposure to D-Wave's first quantum computers in Canada to raising capital from Chinese state funds (and getting blocked by the CIA's venture arm), Olivier's story tracks the entire rise of the post-quantum security industry.Together, Charlie and Olivier unpack what it really means when we say “the end of ECDSA,” why the U.S. government plans to deprecate Bitcoin's signature standard by 2035, and how quantum systems could make traditional mining obsolete.They explore how the analog world of nature — light, gravity, superconductors — can replace brute-force hashing, how “Boson sampling” could one day stand in for SHA-256, and why the biggest breakthroughs in computing may come from mimicking God's own architecture.Plus, Charlie shares insights from a recent dinner with Dr. Adam Back and his own stealth research into quantum-mining convergence. This episode isn't just about crypto's future — it's about the future of computation itself.Topics Discussed:From Node.js startups to quantum cryptographyWhat happens when the CIA's VC fund blocks your dealWhy the U.S. and China's quantum race matters for BitcoinThe birth of post-quantum cryptography and NIST's standardsHow quantum encryption could replace proof-of-workWhy consensus itself might become irrelevantHow AI's mainstream boom paves the way for quantum adoptionThe analog vs. digital computing paradigm shift Thank you for listening to The Charlie Shrem Show.

In this episode of Crazy Wisdom, host Stewart Alsop speaks with Paul Sztorc, CEO of Layer2 Labs, about Bitcoin's evolution, the limitations of the Lightning Network, and how his ideas for drivechains and merge-mined sidechains could transform scalability and privacy on the Bitcoin network. They cover everything from Zcash's zero-knowledge proofs and “moon math” to the block size wars, sound money, and the economic realities behind crypto hype cycles. Paul also explains his projects like Zside and Thunder, which aim to bring features like Zcash-style privacy and high-speed transactions to Bitcoin. Listeners can try Layer2 Labs' software or learn more at layer2labs.com/download.Check out this GPT we trained on the conversationTimestamps00:00 Stewart Alsop opens with Paul Sztorc from Layer2 Labs, discussing the connection between Bitcoin and Zcash and how privacy could be added through zero-knowledge proofs.05:00 Paul critiques early Layer 2s like Rootstock and Lightning, calling many “not real” or custodial, and compares the current scene to the .com bubble.10:00 They explore media hype, Silicon Valley culture, and crypto's cycles of optimism and collapse, mentioning Theranos, FTX, and fake-it-till-you-make-it culture.15:00 Conversation shifts to sound money, government spending, and how Bitcoin could improve fiscal responsibility, referencing Milton Friedman's ideas.20:00 Paul questions Bitcoin treasury companies like MicroStrategy, explaining flawed incentives and better direct ownership logic.25:00 They move into geopolitics and The Sovereign Individual, discussing borders, state control, and the future of digital sovereignty.30:00 Paul explains zero-knowledge proofs, Zcash's “moon math,” and the evolution from sapling to Halo 2 for better privacy.35:00 The topic turns to drivechains, BIP300, and Layer2 Labs' projects like Zside and Thunder, built for real Bitcoin scalability.40:00 Paul explains why Lightning fails, liquidity limits, and why true scaling requires optional L2s with large block capacity.45:00 They discuss the block size war, merge mining, and how miners and nodes interact in Bitcoin's structure.50:00 Paul breaks down the Merkle tree, block headers, and SHA-256 puzzles miners race to solve for proof-of-work.55:00 The episode closes with how L1–L2 coordination works, the mechanics of slow withdrawals, and secondary markets in drivechains.Key InsightsBitcoin's privacy gap and Zcash's influence: Paul Sztorc begins by explaining how Bitcoin lacks true privacy since senders, receivers, and amounts are visible on-chain. He describes Zcash as a model for achieving anonymity through zero-knowledge proofs and explains how Layer2 Labs aims to bring that same level of privacy to Bitcoin without introducing a new altcoin or token.The failure of current Layer 2 solutions: Paul argues that existing Bitcoin Layer 2s like Lightning and Rootstock are flawed—either custodial, inefficient, or deceptive. He compares today's crypto landscape to the dot-com bubble, full of overhyped projects and scams that will collapse before the genuine solutions survive.Sound money and political accountability: The discussion expands beyond technology to economics, as Paul highlights how unsustainable government debt and spending distort incentives. He believes Bitcoin could restore discipline to fiscal systems by forcing real accounting and limiting the political capacity to inflate or borrow endlessly.Corporate Bitcoin strategies are often misguided: Paul criticizes companies like MicroStrategy for treating Bitcoin as a speculative treasury asset instead of using it for real utility. He argues that investors should just buy Bitcoin directly rather than buy shares in companies that hold it, since intermediaries introduce unnecessary risk, fees, and opacity.Drivechains as Bitcoin's missing scalability link: Sztorc presents drivechains, outlined in his proposal BIP300, as the practical way to scale Bitcoin. Drivechains allow multiple Layer 2s to exist simultaneously, each optimized for specific features like privacy, larger blocks, or smart contracts, all while using the same 21 million BTC.Lightning Network's structural limitations: Paul dismantles Lightning's core assumptions, pointing out that it cannot scale globally because each channel requires on-chain transactions and constant liquidity maintenance. He calls Lightning a “Theranos of Bitcoin,” arguing that it distracts the community from genuine, scalable innovation.Merge mining and the path to Bitcoin's future: The episode concludes with Paul describing merge mining as the mechanism that unites L1 and L2 securely, letting miners earn more revenue without extra work. He envisions a Bitcoin ecosystem where optional, diverse L2s provide privacy, speed, and flexibility—anchored by a lean, reliable L1 base.

In this episode, Lex speaks  Mike Sha - the CEO and co-founder of Tandems (formerly SigFig), a leading provider of AI-powered software for wealth management firms and financial institutions. Together, Lex and Mike discuss the evolution of wealth technology through the lens of Mike's entrepreneurial journey from founding Wikinvest in 2006 to building Tandems. Wikinvest pivoted to portfolio tracking and then to a B2B model, powering major portals like Yahoo Finance and managing over $500 billion in tracked assets. The team's insights into poor retail investment behavior led to building SigFig, a B2B robo-advisor, eventually serving banks like UBS and Wells Fargo.Today, rebranded as Tandems, the firm offers AI-powered tools for advisors across three key areas: meetings, asset gathering, and investment management, with AI integrated via a modular “wealth OS” platform. Tandems uses an open architecture for AI, prioritizing trust, configurability, and high accuracy tailored to the specific workflows of financial advisors. NOTABLE DISCUSSION POINTS:The Realization That Most Investors Struggle on Their Own Sparked the Robo-Advisory Movement - Mike Sha's early data from tracking $400–500 billion in retail portfolios across Yahoo!, CNN, and other finance portals revealed that most individuals consistently underperform when managing their own investments. This insight directly led to the creation of SigFig, one of the first robo-advisors, designed to make high-quality investment advice affordable and automated. It shows how data-driven observation of user behavior can uncover market inefficiencies and spark new product categories.Distribution and Integration Trumps Pure Innovation in Fintech Partnerships - Tandem's evolution from a consumer-facing platform to a B2B software provider for major banks underscored a critical lesson: distribution and trust are the hardest parts of scaling in financial services. Rather than trying to replace institutions, Sha's team embedded within them - learning that success requires deep integration with legacy systems and respect for the bank's compliance and operational frameworks. The “secret” to working with large financial institutions, Sha notes, is understanding their old infrastructure and designing around it - not fighting it.AI's Real Impact in Wealth Management Will Begin with Eliminating Repetitive Work - Tandem's current strategy focuses on AI automation for financial advisors, not as a replacement but as an assistant. Sha highlights that over 90% of an advisor's day involves repetitive administrative work - meeting prep, paperwork, compliance, follow-ups. Tandem's “Wealth OS” connects legacy systems and uses AI to automate these tasks first, freeing advisors to focus on human relationship-building and advice. It's a practical and near-term vision of AI in finance: efficiency before intelligence. TOPICSTandems, SigFig, Wikinvest, wealthtech, wealth management, fintech, ai, artificial intelligence, investment, roboadvisors, finance, financial management, banking, bank partnerships ABOUT THE FINTECH BLUEPRINT

Many people have the custom each morning to read "Hok Le'Yisrael" – a collection of texts that includes passages from the Tanach, Mishna, Halachic works, Zohar, and other sources. "Hok Le'Yisrael" follows a regimented schedule, with different pieces of texts being recited each day. Often, the people who read "Hok Le'Yisrael" do not understand the material they read. The question arises whether a person may read "Hok Le'Yisrael" in the morning before reciting Birkot Ha'Torah. Halacha requires reciting Birkot Ha'Torah before learning Torah for the first time in the morning, but does this apply even if one reads Torah literature without understanding the text? Does this qualify as "learning" with respect to the obligation of Birkot Ha'Torah? Rav Schneur Zalman of Liadi (first Rebbe of Lubavitch, 1745-1812), in his Shulhan Aruch Ha'Rav, distinguishes in this regard between the Tanach and other texts. When one reads verses from the Torah, Nebi'im or Ketubim, this constitutes Torah learning regardless of whether or not he understands what he reads. When it comes to all other texts, however, reading them qualifies as Torah study only if one understands the material he reads. Similarly, the Mishna Berura cites the Magen Abraham (Rav Abraham Gombiner, Poland, 1635-1683) as stating that if one reads "Ezehu Mekoman" – the chapter of Mishna which is customarily read during the "Korbanot" section each morning – without understanding the text, this is not considered Torah study. This is true also of "Rabbi Yishmael Omer," the paragraph which is customarily read in the morning, listing the thirteen methods by which the Sages extracted Halachot from the Biblical text. If a person does not understand this passage, reading it does not qualify as Torah learning. This rule has ramifications with regard to Ereb Pesach, when it is customary for firstborns to participate in a Siyum celebration in order to be absolved from the "fast of the firstborn" (Ta'anit Bechorot) on this day. Hacham Ovadia Yosef writes that a Siyum is effective in absolving the firstborns of their obligation only if the person making the Siyum truly understood all the material in the Masechet (tractate of Talmud) which he completes. Simply reading the words does not suffice. The exception to this rule is the Zohar, the reading of which qualifies as Torah learning even if one does not understand what he reads – and even if he does not read the words correctly. This is the ruling of the Hida (Rav Haim Yosef David Azulai, 1724-1806) and of Rav Haim Palachi (Turkey, 1788-1868). The words of the Zohar have such power and potency that reading them has the effect of absorbing the content into one's being even if he does not understand what he reads. It is told that the Arizal (Rav Yishak Luria, 1534-1572) once advised somebody to read five pages of Zohar each day as a Tikkun (rectification) for his soul. And many have the custom to read from the Zohar Hadash each day during the month of Elul, until Yom Kippur, because the reading itself brings great spiritual benefits, even if one does not understand the text. Therefore, one who reads Zohar in the morning must first recite Birkot Ha'Torah. This exception is unique to the Zohar. Other Kabbalistic works – such as Sha'ar Ha'kavanot and the teachings of the Rashash (Rav Shalom Sharabi, 1720-1777) – elucidate and expound upon the teachings of the Zohar, and thus simply reading them without understanding what they say does not qualify as Torah learning. Returning the case of those who read "Hok Le'Yisrael," since this reading includes passages from the Tanach, one must recite Birkot Ha'Torah before reading this text in the morning, even if he does not understand anything he reads. This applies also to somebody who wishes to read Tehillim in the morning – he must first recite Birkot Ha'Torah, even though he does not understand the verses he recites, because Tehillim is part of the Tanach. In conclusion, it should be emphasized that although reading Tanach and Zohar without understanding the text qualifies as Torah study, we should always aspire to understand to the best of our ability. The sin of "Bittul Torah" (neglecting Torah) is normally defined as wasting time which could have been used for Torah, but it includes also wasting one's capabilities which could have been used to understand Torah. G-d gave us intellectual skills, the ability to comprehend, and we must utilize these powers to understand as much Torah as we can to the greatest extent possible. Today, when virtually every Torah text is available with translations and commentaries, there is really no excuse for reading any part of Torah literature without understanding the material. Summary: If one wishes to read verses from the Torah – such as Tehillim – in the morning, he must first recite Birkot Ha'Torah, even if he will not understand the text he will be reciting. This applies also to someone who wishes to read passages from the Zohar which he does not understand. Reading any other Torah text, however, does not qualify as Torah study unless one understands what he reads, and thus one who reads in the morning other Torah texts without understanding does not need to first recite Birkot Ha'Torah.

In this episode of Selective Ignorance, Mandii B welcomes Jay Hill for an in-depth exploration of public outrage, gender roles, and the layered dynamics of domestic violence. The conversation begins with Jay sharing his journey and book promotion [00:00], before diving into the culture of selective outrage and how gender roles shape public perception [00:49]. They reflect on celebrity accountability [04:11], concert experiences, and the divide between artist popularity and audience reaction [07:00]. The dialogue then turns toward the state of R&B and hip-hop [13:04], with Mandii and Jay highlighting how artists like Kendrick Lamar and SZA influence the industry, while also weaving in personal experiences and encounters with celebrities [18:01]. This leads to a candid discussion on interview aspirations and the ethical dilemmas of platforming controversial figures [21:45]. From there, the conversation deepens into justice, consequences, and responsibility [28:44]. Mandii and Jay explore the ripple effects of violence [39:05], the layered complexity of domestic abuse cases [46:26], and the role of restraint in relationships [52:24]. Sha’Carri Richardson’s recent arrest serves as a case study to unpack how gender and violence intersect in the public eye. The episode closes with cultural reflections—how comedy influences social norms and Ari Lennox’s critique of its ties to colorism [01:05:39], and why society must prioritize unlearning and accountability [01:13:07]. “No Holes Barred: A Dual Manifesto Of Sexual Exploration And Power” w/ Tempest X!Sale Link Follow the host on Social MediaMandii B Instagram/X @fullcourtpumps Follow the guests on Social Media@mr_jayhill Follow the show on Social MediaInstagram @selectiveignorancepodTiktok @selective.ignoranceX/Twitter @selectiveig_podSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
