Welcome to The Reel Schmooze with ToI film reviewer Jordan Hoffman and host Amanda Borschel-Dan, where we bring you all the entertainment news and film reviews a Jew can use. This week, the pair speaks about two films, a feminist independent Iranian documentary called "Cutting Through Rocks," which won an international documentary award at the Sundance Film Festival in January, and the 1990 Thanksgiving classic, "Avalon." But first, in the entertainment news section we call the "Jangle," Borschel-Dan tells Hoffman about the rise and fall of the Israeli rock opera, "Shaul," by Israeli musician Shlomo Artzi. We also hear a listener's feedback on a point of Jewish law raised in last week's discussion over "Bad Shabbos."Hear who gave both films a seal of approval and which was a split decision on this week's The Reel Schmooze.

Last week in our study, we saw how Samuel the prophet addressed the people. And the context is important, because he had just made Shaul king over Israel, and he wanted the people to understand the implications of that action, which was led by the people's decision, and God gave the people what they asked for.

We saw at the conclusion of our last study that Shaul was made king over Israel. And now in this chapter, a new chapter, chapter 12 of First Samuel. We're going to see a speech that Samuel, the Prophet, made before the people so that they would understand what they have asked for and what will be the outcome of having a king over them instead of serving the Lord directly.To donate please visit us at:https://loveisrael.org/donate/Checks may be sent to:LoveIsrael.org

In this Friday Thinking Talmudist episode on Talmud Bava Metzia 84b, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe explores the extraordinary life and legacy of Rebbe Elazar ben Rebbe Shimon, a sage whose body remained undecayed in his attic for 18–22 years after death due to his unparalleled righteousness—his vessel solely for Torah and mitzvot, not worldly indulgence. The Talmud recounts how his absence as community marshal prevented women from receiving halachic rulings on purity, halting procreation, echoing stories like Rav Moshe Feinstein's eight-year childless period without a mikvah. Rebbe Elazar's wife observed blood when hairs fell and a worm from his ear, which he explained in a dream as minor punishment for once failing to protest slander against Torah scholars, teaching the grave obligation to defend the righteous and halt lashon hara—worse for the listener who enables its spread than the speaker.The narrative highlights Rebbe Elazar's posthumous miracles: a heavenly voice from the attic resolved disputes, interpreted as divine inspiration guiding just settlements; his unburied body protected the city from wild animals; and a serpent guarded his father's cave until burial. Parallels include the Gaon of Vilna's perfectly preserved body and the Chafetz Chaim's gravesite preventing miscarriages, underscoring burial's sanctity over cremation, which denies body-soul reunion at resurrection. Rabbi Wolbe passionately advocates for tahara (purification rites) by the Chevra Kadisha as a profound mitzvah, preparing the deceased for heavenly judgment, and recommends Rabbi Doron Kornbluth's book Cremation or Burial? for spiritual and environmental insights.Ultimately, the Gemara contrasts Rebbe Elazar's humility and self-imposed suffering to spare Jewish pain with Rebbe Shimon ben Gamaliel's self-description as a "lion son of a fox," proving true anavah (humility) among greats like the Bnei Beteira and Yonatan ben Shaul. Rabbi Wolbe ties this to defending Torah scholars amid Israel's yeshiva draft debates—spiritual pillars merit protection like Pharaoh exempted learners—urging pride in Judaism as Rosh Hashanah approaches, crowning Hashem as eternal King with majesty far surpassing earthly royalty._____________The Thinking Talmudist Podcast shares select teachings of Talmud in a fresh, insightful and meaningful way.

Winner of The 74th National Jewish Book Award: Amer­i­can Jew­ish Studies Cel­e­brate 350 Award Reveals the mass mobilization tactics that helped free Soviet Jews and reshaped the Jewish American experience from the Johnson era through the Reagan–Bush yearsWhat do these things have in common? Ingrid Bergman, Passover matzoh, Banana Republic®, the fitness craze, the Philadelphia Flyers, B-grade spy movies, and ten thousand Bar and Bat Mitzvah sermons? Nothing, except that social movement activists enlisted them all into the most effective human rights campaign of the Cold War.The plight of Jews in the USSR was marked by systemic antisemitism, a problem largely ignored by Western policymakers trying to improve relations with the Soviets. In the face of governmental apathy, activists in the United States hatched a bold plan: unite Jewish Americans to demand that Washington exert pressure on Moscow for change.A Cold War Exodus: How American Activists Mobilized To Free Soviet Jews (NYU Press, 2025) delves into the gripping narrative of how these men and women, through ingenuity and determination, devised mass mobilization tactics during a three-decade-long campaign to liberate Soviet Jews—an endeavor that would ultimately lead to one of the most significant mass emigrations in Jewish history.Drawing from a wealth of archival sources including the travelogues of thousands of American tourists who smuggled aid to Russian Jews, Shaul Kelner offers a compelling tale of activism and its profound impact, revealing how a seemingly disparate array of elements could be woven together to forge a movement and achieve the seemingly impossible.

Even though Shaul was not a faithful King, we're going to see in this study, that he began in a most positive way. And the reason for that great success, initially is because he relied upon the Lord what God had provided to lead him in the direction of God's will. And there's a great message for us, and it's this, when we are believers, God will lead us, He will provide everything that we need in order to accomplish His will. In other words, as we've mentioned many times, God is always faithful.To donate please visit us at:https://loveisrael.org/donate/Checks may be sent to:LoveIsrael.org

In this study, we're going to see that Samuel, the Prophet, anoints Shaul as king. And there's going to be evidence that under shows leadership. He is not going to lead the people of Israel in a good way. He is not going to be submissive, but he is going to follow a heart that is not founded upon the word of God.

On October 6, 1973 on Yom Kippur, the holiest day of the Jewish calendar, Egypt and Syria launched a surprise coordinated attack on Israel. Within hours, soldiers were rushed from their homes, synagogues, and bases to defend the country. One of them was Shaul, who was the Deputy Commander of the Israeli Navy.The Yom Kippur War lasted 19 days and reshaped Middle Eastern history. Shaul defended his country's waters, and the lessons and experiences of his service are still impacting the Israeli Navy to this day.

In our last lesson, we have seen how both Shaul and a servant of his were approaching a city and that city was going to have a celebration, and that celebration had to do with a special sacrifice that Samuel, the Prophet was going to oversee, and he would be the one who blessed this event. So with that said, take out your Bible and look with me to First Samuel chapter nine. First Samuel chapter nine, and we're going to begin our study in verse 12.

A dispute on the prohibition of the idol when it's owned by a Jew vs. owned by non-Jew (Rabbi Akiva vs. Rabbi Yishmael). Also, vessels that were used in the "Temple of Onias" -- "chonyo," outside of the Temple, once it had been built. [Note: Historically, the specific temple of Onias was a center of worship for Egyptian Judaism.] Rabbi Yehudah HaNasi forgot (!) the verse from which the external worship was prohibited -- and then he was reminded of it by Rabbi Yosi bar Shaul. Also, the specifics of the Temple - as presented in the tractate Middot - were key in terms of assessing what could and could not be used in the Temple - once they were used unlawfully, even unto the Temple's altar itself (in the time of the Hasmoneans). It was a problem of the stones not being smooth, and so they were hid - but why hide? Why not repurpose them? Plus, the gold of Jerusalem and the coins that were permitted for use.

Today in History: The Apostle Shaul (Paul) of Tarsus was killed in Rome on this day (according to tradition, Book of the Bee 48). Tradition holds that he was beheaded (Roman citizens were not crucified). It happened during the reign of Emperor Nero, after the great fire in Rome in 64 CE. Shaul wrote, “The time of my departure has come. I have fought the good fight, I have finished the course, I have kept the faith” (2 Timothy 4:6–7).This week's portion is called Mattot - Masei (Tribes - Journeys)TORAH PORTION: Numbers 34:16–35:8GOSPEL PORTION: Acts 1Think about: What Scripture spoke to you most today and why?

Study Guide Avodah Zarah 25 Today's daf is sponsored Malka Louzoun in memory of her father, Gilbert Louzoun, Nissim ben Sultana, on his 9th yahrzeit. "A man of many accomplishments, he taught us to work hard, to act honestly and with integrity, to be charitable, and to explore the world. Despite his great successes, he was a person of incredible humility. His warmth and intelligence are missed daily by all who knew him. The life lessons he taught us by simply being who he was, are ones we hope to pass to our children, the grandchildren he so dearly loved." How long did the sun stop in the time of Joshua? Two different versions are brought regarding a debate between three sages. Who else did the sun stop for? What is the "Sefer HaYashar" that is referred to both in the verse about the sun stopping (Joshua 10:13) and also in the Kina of David for the deaths of Shaul and Yonatan (Shmuel II 1:18)? The Mishna relates that a woman can't be alone with an idol worshipper. To what is the Mishna referring, as even with a Jew this is forbidden? Additionally, why is there no concern that the idol worshipper will kill her, as appears later in the Mishna when referring to a man? What precautions should a man take when walking alone on a path with an idol worshipper, to prevent a situation where the idol worshipper may kill him?

What precautions should a man take when walking alone on a path with an idol worshipper, to prevent a situation where the idol worshipper may kill him?  

One group held Saul in contempt as a king. The other group opposed monarchy in principle,they wanted Hashem to rule them through Samuel (יַעֲבֵ"ץ וּכְלֵי יָקָר)https://thechesedfund.com/rabbikatz/support-rabbi-katzz-podcast

The narrative segment of Divrei Hayamim opens with Shaul's tragic death. This is the only story of Saul's life. why does Div Hayamim choose to begin at this exact point? Since the author of Div. Hayamim is a very discerning historian, highly attentive to his task, the choice of a beginning must be deliberate and meaningful. What is he trying to communicate?

The Torah teachers, Ray Harrison and Mark Call, begin a detailed look at what MC calls the "most twisted Book in the Bible," the Apostle Paul, or Shaul's, letter to the Galatians.

The Torah teachers, Mark Call and Ray Harrison, are now joined again by Pete Rambo, as they complete the study of Shaul or Paul's Second Letter to the Corinthians. Of all the ways that this letter has been 'twisted,' and - as they have suggested - even inverted from its original meaning, context, and intent, this may be the most key.

The Torah teachers, Mark Call and Ray Harrison, are now joined again by Pete Rambo, as they continue the study of Shaul or Paul's Second Letter to the Corinthians, and now into chapter 11, which is where the "rubber meets the road." Of all the ways that this letter has been 'twisted,' and - as they have suggested - even inverted from its original meaning, context, and intent, this may be the most key. When Paul warns that he was concerned people might start accepting "another jesus, whom we have NOT preached," he was absolutely right. And the Whore Church is not about to point that out to those who have been so deceived for 17 centuries or so.

The Torah teachers, Mark Call and Ray Harrison, continue the study of Shaul or Paul's Second Letter to the Corinthians, and some of the ways that it has been 'twisted,' and even outright inverted from the original meaning and context, from chapter 7 into chapter 10.

Torah teachers Mark Call, Ray Harrison, and this week sans Mark Pitrone, continue theri look at some of the Apostolic Writings (aka 'New' Testament) that have been too often 'turned upside down.' They started with the Second Letter that Shaul or Paul wrote to the people of Corinth, and continue this week from chapter 2 into chapter 3.

Torah teachers Mark Call, Ray Harrison, and intermittently Mark Pitrone, begin a look into some of the Apostolic Writings (aka 'New' Testament) that have been too often 'turned upside down.' This week, they begin with a study of the Second Letter that Shaul or Paul wrote to the people of Corinth.

The Torah reading called "Pekudei" (for the "accounts" that summarized the making of the 'mishkan,' or Tabernacle in the Wilderness, from Exodus 38:10 through the end of the Book) is the final parsha the the opening saga of the Exodus. And while the story has only really begun at that point, it's an inspired summary of what mattered then, and still does:  the phrase "as YHVH commanded Moshe [Moses]" is repeated eighteen times in this parsha alone, and the level of repeated detail on the work the 'mixed multitude' did together is, in large measure, also repeated, but with a change of tense:  that which they were TOLD to do, they, and Moses, DID -- and, again, "as YHVH commanded Moshe." There is clearly a message there. While most of us who have attended the vast majority of 'denominational churches' have probably heard the term "Old" Testament, and even that "the Law" was somehow away with later, as if it no longer applies, and what matters instead is the 'spirit' that is in our hearts, Mark Call of Shabbat Shalom Mesa suggests we had better understand the MANY other admonitions in Scripture, including warnings from Shaul, or Paul, that have been twisted.  He starts with a look at the First Letter Paul wrote to the Corinthians, and chapter 3.  But it is undeniable, to those with "eyes to see," that the ReNewed Covenant, in places like Jeremiah 31:31 is not quite what most of us have been taught, either. As we see the battle lines being drawn in a world which has largely rejected the True Messiah in favor of "another jesus whom we have NOT preached," Mark suggests it has never been more important not only that we know WHICH Spirit is "holy" and how to know, but that we understand why what "Yahuah commanded Moshe" is still the Foundation -- just as Yahushua HaMashiach, the Messiah, said, and taught.  He never changed so much as a "yod or tiddle." And He summarized it all simply, too:   "If you love Me, keep My commandments." Which?  All of 'em.  The ones He Wrote, and Taught, and has never changed. If we are now to be His "temple," and His Holy Spirit is to dwell within our hearts, we need to understand what that really means.

Close to midnight on May 17, 1951, four north Alabama lawmen drove to a bootlegger's home to serve an arrest warrant. Before the clock struck twelve, the bootlegger lay dead in front of the house he shared with his wife and eight children, and three of the four officers were also dead. Afterward, a sixteen-year-old boy would face a series of trials that would divide a county and thrust the state of Alabama into the national spotlight. My guest is Professor Lesa Carnes Shaul, author of "Midnight Cry: A Shooting on Sand Mountain". She grew up on Sand Mountain hearing stories about this sensational shootout and joins me to talk about her research into this fascinating case.

Two more answers (altogether five) are brought to reconcile the contradiction between the braita and the Mishna in Ketubot 29a. From where does Rabbi Yonatan ben Shaul learn that if one can neutralize the pursuer, one is not allowed to kill him? When one is pursuing another and either the pursuer, the pursued or the one trying to stop the pursuer causes damage - who is exempt from payment and who is liable to pay? Why?  What is the basis for the opinions of Rabbi Shimon bar Yochai and his son Rabbi Eliezer who add more cases to the list where one can kill one who is about to commit a certain transgression? Rabbi Yochanan quotes Rabbi Shimon ben Yehotzadak saying that the rabbis sat in an attic in Lod and ruled that if one is threatened by death unless they transgress one of the commandments, they should transgress the commandment and not be killed, as the commandments were given to "live by them." However, there are three exceptions to the rule - idol worship, inappropriate sexual relations and murder (yehareg v'al yaavor). What is the source for the three exceptions? There are also certain circumstances in which one must give oneself over to be killed rather than transgress any commandment - if it is in public and if it is a time of religious persecution. What is the definition of public? How was Esther permitted to engage in relations with Achashverosh if it was public? Rava and Abaye each provide an answer.  Are Bnei Noach also commanded to give themselves over to be killed if asked to transgress one of the Noahide laws in public?

Joining me today are Shaul Schwarz and Christina Clusiau, the filmmakers behind the critically acclaimed Netflix documentary Immigration Nation. As award-winning directors, cinematographers, and journalists, their work has shed light on some of the most pressing social issues of our time. Immigration Nation is a six-part docuseries that offers an unprecedented look inside the U.S. immigration system, featuring raw, unfiltered access to ICE operations, immigrant families, and the complexities of enforcement policies. Their ability to capture both the humanity and the harsh realities of immigration enforcement made the series one of the most talked-about documentaries of 2020. In our conversation, Shaul and Christina discuss what they witnessed while making Immigration Nation and how the landscape of immigration has evolved—especially now, with Donald Trump back in office. We dive into what's happening at the border, the shifting role of ICE, and the human stories often lost in political debates. Their insights provide a crucial perspective on a topic that remains at the heart of national and global discussions. Want to advertise on our show?
