    We apologize that we don't have a new episode for this week's parsha. Due to some logistical difficulties this week we weren't able to record an episode. So I was just going to send out this apology and a link to last year's episode. But then I thought last minute to share at least an idea something to think about over Shabbos. Obviously, this will be missing the secret sauce of the One Pasuk Podcast, the rabbinic banter as I like to call it that I enjoy so much with Rabbi Goldberg and Rabbi Kuessous. God willing next week we will be back in action. וְשָׁם רָאִינוּ אֶת־הַנְּפִילִים בְּנֵי עֲנָק מִן־הַנְּפִלִים וַנְּהִי בְעֵינֵינוּ כַּחֲגָבִים וְכֵן הָיִינוּ בְּעֵינֵיהֶם׃ _we saw the Nephilim there—the Anakites are part of the Nephilim—and we looked like grasshoppers to ourselves, and so we must have looked to them.”_ https://www.sefaria.org/Numbers.13.33 Link to last year's episode *Subscribe/Listen/Share onepasukpodcast.com* *Sponsor an episode ahavathtorah.org/podcast*

    When God finally opens the ark's doors after the Great Flood subsides, something shocking happens: the women refuse to have children. Despite being the only humans left on Earth, Noah's family goes on a "baby strike," terrified that their offspring might repeat history's mistakes. Their reasoning? Even righteous Adam and Eve produced a world so wicked that God had to wash it away.Rabbi Epstein uncovers the profound psychology behind this post-apocalyptic anxiety, exploring why the wives feared they couldn't control their children's choices—and how this reflects every parent's deepest concerns. But here's the twist: God had to switch from His attribute of justice to mercy to convince them the world was worth rebuilding.The Hebrew text reveals something English fails to capture: spelling variations that reveal hidden meanings, and the revolutionary moment when burnt offerings literally changed God's mind. This episode tackles the ultimate questions: How do we find hope after devastation? When is it right to bring children into an uncertain world? And what does it really mean when the Torah says we're born with evil inclinations?From the secret reason animals were commanded to leave the ark to the profound truth about why teenagers get their "good inclination" at 12 and 13, Rabbi Epstein masterfully weaves together ancient wisdom and modern parenting dilemmas. Discover how Noah's animal offering created an "appetizer" for human transformation that echoes through every generation.

    In this episode of the Parsha Review Podcast, we explore the Torah portion Shalach, focusing on the story of the twelve spies sent to scout the land of Israel. Ten of the spies return with a negative report, causing despair among the Jewish people, which leads to the tragic establishment of Tisha B'Av, a day marked by historical calamities. In contrast, Joshua and Calev offer a positive perspective, highlighting the importance of faith in Hashem's promise. We delve into the mitzvah of Tzitzis (fringes on four-cornered garments), recited twice daily in the Shema, which serves as a visual reminder of all 613 commandments. He explains that Tzitzis, with their numerical value and structure (600 plus 8 strings and 5 knots), symbolize the entire Torah, encouraging spiritual mindfulness and adherence to God's laws, particularly for men, as the mitzvah is time-bound and not obligatory for women.We emphasize the power and danger of the eyes, which can lead to holiness or temptation, as cautioned in the verse urging not to stray after one's heart or eyes. We connect this to modern challenges, where technology and social media, designed to be addictive, can draw people away from their values. Drawing from personal anecdotes, such as a student wearing Tzitzis discreetly and his own experience in Jerusalem's marketplace, he warns against the spiritual risks of unchecked visual intake. We advocate for mental engagement with Torah to guard against boredom and temptation, citing the practices of tech CEOs who limit phone use for productivity. We conclude by urging listeners to control their eyes, create a personal sanctuary for Hashem, and recite the Shema daily as a reminder to stay focused on holiness, praying for divine protection and a blessed Shabbos._____________This episode (Ep 7.34) of the Parsha Review Podcast by Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe on Parshas Shelach is dedicated in honor of our Holy Soldiers in the Battlefield and our Torah Scholars in the Study Halls who are fighting for the safety of our nation!Download & Print the Parsha Review Notes:https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1ncaRyoH5iJmGGoMZs9y82Hz2ofViVouv?usp=sharingRecorded at TORCH Meyerland in the Levin Family Studios (B) to a live audience on June 17, 2025, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on June 19, 2025_____________DONATE to TORCH: Please consider supporting the podcasts by making a donation to help fund our Jewish outreach and educational efforts at https://www.torchweb.org/support.php.

In this episode, we embark on an exploration of Siman 28 of the Kitzur Shulchan Aruch, discussing the sacred obligation of writing or commissioning a Sefer Torah. We'll also reveal how acquiring other Jewish texts, like the Chumash, Mishnah, or Gemara, can fulfill this mitzvah, even for those who cannot commission a full Torah scroll. We'll highlight the accessibility of these sacred texts through publishers like ArtScroll, emphasizing their role in making Torah study available to all.As we continue our journey, I'll take you through the historical and cultural tapestry that underscores the reverence of holy books and scrolls within Jewish communities. Learn about the halachic guidelines that govern the handling and storage of sacred texts, as well as the practices that reflect these guidelines—such as standing when a Torah scroll is carried and ensuring holy books are treated with respect. Delve into the communal learning traditions shaped by the historic rarity and expense of these texts, and how these practices have helped preserve their sanctity over the ages.Finally, we'll explore the respectful use of Torah books and Judaica, focusing on the limitations and proper disposal practices that honor these sacred items. Discover the nuances of handling holy writings, including the respectful rebinding of books and the ethical considerations when purchasing sacred items from non-Jews.

    Join us as we explore the vital trait of eagerness, alacrity, or "zerizut," and its impact on both spiritual and everyday life. We'll discuss how eagerness can propel us towards fulfilling mitzvahs and serving Hashem effectively, using examples like Moshe and Pinchas to highlight the importance of avoiding negative influences. We'll also examine the role of repentance, emphasizing the need for patience and caution in our actions to achieve true perfection.

    Israel's Secret Weapon Revealed: Divine Miracles or Military Might?

    In this episode of the Jewish Inspiration Podcast, we discuss the recent preemptive Israeli military operation against Iran, named "Am Kelavi" (Rising Lion), drawing a parallel to a Torah verse from Numbers 23:24 that likens the Jewish people to a lion—resilient, patient, yet fierce when provoked. He recounts the biblical story of Bilaam, hired by King Balak to curse the Jewish people, only to bless them instead, highlighting divine protection and intervention. We emphasize that Israel's strength lies not in its military or intelligence prowess alone, such as the Mossad or IDF, but in its spiritual connection to Hashem (God). He reflects on the open miracles witnessed on June 13, 2025, referencing Iran's earlier ballistic missile attack on April 14, 2024, which allowed Israel to refine its defenses. We underscore that the Jewish people's true power stems from their faith, prayers, and adherence to mitzvahs (commandments), even amidst adversity, as they remain under divine guardianship.We further explore the concept of spiritual transformation, tying it to the number 40 in Jewish tradition, symbolizing renewal and creation, as seen in events like the 40 years in the desert, 40 days of rain during Noah's flood, and 40 weeks of gestation. We share a poignant story of a boy who intended to save a piece of cake for his mother but ended up with only crumbs, illustrating that even small, imperfect efforts are cherished by God if done with sincerity. We encourage listeners to seize the current miraculous times as an opportunity to deepen their relationship with Hashem through small acts of mitzvahs, emphasizing that every Jew's efforts, no matter how small, contribute to the nation's spiritual strength. The episode concludes with a call to action to break from complacency, embrace mitzvahs, and trust in divine guidance, with the hope for peace and the coming of the Messiah._____________Recorded from a live audience presentation in the TORCH Centre - Levin Family Studios (B) in Houston, Texas on June 13, 2025.Released as Podcast on June 16, 2025_____________DONATE to TORCH: Please consider supporting the podcasts by making a donation to help fund our Jewish outreach and educational efforts at https://www.torchweb.org/support.php.

    Can setting aside a few moments each day change your spiritual life? In our latest episode, we explore the transformative power of daily Torah study, as highlighted in Siman 27 of the Kitzur Shulchan Aruch. With life's demands constantly pulling us in different directions, we discuss the necessity of dedicating time to study, whether it be a brief verse or an in-depth halacha. We share insights on how this practice can act as a spiritual safeguard and a source of strength, even through life's trials.Together, we unravel the beautiful synergy between supporting Torah study and engaging with it firsthand, inspired by the biblical partnership of Zebulun and Issachar. Our conversation reveals how even small acts of learning, when time is scarce, can bring immense spiritual benefit. By focusing on basic Jewish law, Agadah, and Mussar, we can foster personal growth and character development. We also highlight structured learning schedules like "Chok L'Yisroel" or "A Daily Dose of Torah" as tools to help integrate Torah study into our daily routines.The episode concludes with a powerful reflection on the holiness of Torah study. We emphasize the merit found in merely speaking the words of Torah aloud, a practice that deepens our spiritual connection and comprehension. Even when understanding is elusive, the effort put into studying Torah is treasured by Hashem. We invite you to join us in discovering the joy and wisdom of Torah, encouraging both young and old to approach this divine learning with enthusiasm and a prayerful heart.To have your questions featured on the Ask Away series, please submit your questions at askaway@torchweb.org_____________The Everyday Judaism Podcast is dedicated to learning, understanding and appreciating the greatness of Jewish heritage and the Torah through the simplified, concise study of Halacha, Jewish Law, thereby enhancing our understanding of how Hashem wants us to live our daily lives in a Jewish way._____________This Podcast Series is Generously Underwritten by Marshall & Doreen LernerDownload & Print the Everyday Judaism Halacha Notes:https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1RL-PideM42B_LFn6pbrk8MMU5-zqlLG5This episode (Ep. #41) of the Everyday Judaism Podcast by Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe of TORCH is dedicated to my dearest friends, Marshall & Doreen Lerner!

    What if everything that happens to you, even the seemingly bad, is ultimately for your own good?" Join us on this spiritual journey as we explore the profound themes from the Talmudic tractate of Brachot, focusing on gratitude, repentance, and the power of spiritual connection. Through Leah's heartfelt gratitude upon the birth of Judah, we uncover the layers of divine generosity and the importance of giving thanks for blessings, whether grand or modest. This episode also navigates the intricate world of blessings tied to food consumption, shedding light on how even the act of eating can become a spiritual practice.Names carry weight in Jewish tradition—more than just labels, they hold stories and significance. We embark on a thought-provoking exploration of names and perspectives, drawing lessons from King David's resilience and understanding of adversity. By comparing the reactions of biblical figures like Esau and Reuben to their lost birthrights, we delve into the essence of identity and gratitude as reflected in ancient texts. The narratives remind us of a moral imperative to confront wickedness, offering a deeper understanding of our own identities through the names we bear.Personal stories enrich our exploration of naming practices, weaving a tapestry of tradition and personal preference. From a young man advised to embrace his second name to our own anecdotes about naming our children, we highlight the delicate balance parents must strike. The responsibility of naming a child, free from external pressures, is emphasized as we express gratitude for our journey through Torah and Talmud wisdom. Join us for an uplifting discussion that concludes with heartfelt wishes for a peaceful journey and a great Shabbos for all our listeners._____________The Thinking Talmudist Podcast shares select teachings of Talmud in a fresh, insightful and meaningful way. Many claim that they cannot learn Talmud because it is in ancient Aramaic or the concepts are too difficult. Well, no more excuses. In this podcast you will experience the refreshing and eye-opening teachings while gaining an amazing appreciation for the divine wisdom of the Torah and the depths of the Talmud.This Podcast Series is Generously Underwritten by David & Susan MarbinRecorded at TORCH Meyerland in the Levin Family Studios to a live audience on March 28, 2025, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on June 13, 2025_____________DONATE to TORCH: Please consider supporting the podcasts by making a donation to help fund our Jewish outreach and educational efforts at https://www.torchweb.org/support.php.

    Our Parsha begins with the commandment for Aaron to kindle the Menorah, the intricately embellished, seven-branched candelabra hewn out of a single block of gold. Towards the Parsha's middle, we read about the set of silver trumpets that Moshe made, again hewn out of a single block of silver. The only other item with this requirement is the set of golden cherubs perched atop the Ark's Cover. Why must these items be made in this unusual fashion? Why cant the Menorah's branches be made separately and welded together? Why cant the golden cherubs be created separately and subsequently attached to the Ark's Cover? In this fascinating podcast we propose a novel explanation that reveals the deep insight for the things that must be created by omission, and contrast it with the sukkah that has the opposite requirement: it cannot be made by hollowing out a mound of material to form the sukkah's walls and roof.– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –This Parsha Podcast is dedicated in honor of our dear friend and dedicated Parsha Podcast listener Steve Horak on the occasion of his birthday this week sponsored by his children Meirav and Ahron and granddaughter Libi.
