Parshat Shemini: Do Not Defile The Temple Of The Holy Spirit -  Spanish only.  Just after Nadab and Abihu died, God told Aaron that he and his sons could not drink wine or strong drink before going into the Tabernacle. God wanted them to discern between the holy and the profane, and between the unclean and clean. Is there a connection between what we eat and drink with the Tabernacle of God?  Recorded April 26, 2025. Parshat Shemini:  No envilezcas el templo del Espíritu Santo  -  sólo en español.  Justo después de la muerte de Nadab y Abihu, Dios le dijo a Aaron que él y sus hijos no podían tomar vino ni sidra antes de entrar al Tabernáculo de Dios... para discernir entre lo limpio y lo inmundo. ¿Habrá una conexión entre lo que comemos y bebemos con el Tabernáculo de Dios?  Grabado el 26 de abril de 2025.

Parshas Shemini: Called to Lead On the eighth day of the Mishkan's inauguration, Aaron steps into his new role—but not without fear. Why does the Torah say his offering must be “for you”? The Ohr HaChaim and Rashi teach that true leadership begins with personal accountability. Before Aaron could serve the nation, he had to believe he was worthy. This episode explores how real growth starts with sincerity, not perfection. We're not called to lead because we're flawless—we're called because we're willing to show up real. In honor of Eretz Yisroel – May G-d protect our brave soldiers and return all the hostages in Gaza immediately.

Parashat Shemini-The Three Pillars of the World

Daily Emunah Podcast - Daily Emunah By Rabbi David Ashear

Our Sages teach us that the world stands on three pillars: Torah , Avodah , and Gemilut Chasadim . Rabbi David Najjar found a fascinating allusion to this concept in a Passuk from this week's Parashah, Shemini . The Passuk states: " ואת העולה המציאו אליו לנתחיה ואת הראש ויקטר על המזבח " — referring to the korban olah . Rabbi Najjar notes that the initial letters of the phrase " ואת העולה המציאו אליו " spell out the divine name with which Hashem created the world — suggesting a connection to the creation of the universe itself. Since the Passuk discusses the korban olah , it clearly alludes to Avodah , one of the world's foundational pillars. Furthermore, the first letters of " לנתחיה ואת הראש " form the word " לוה " — meaning "lent," a reference to Gemilut Chasadim . The final letters of the words " אליו לנתחיה ואת הראש " spell out תושיה" " , a term associated with Torah , as seen in the Passuk from Mishlei: " נצור תושיה ומזימה " ("Guard sound wisdom and discretion"). Hence, this single Passuk subtly contains allusions to the three pillars upon which the world stands. Additionally, another Passuk in the Parashah — " וירא כבוד ה' " ("The glory of Hashem appeared") — has the same gematria (numerical value) as " בצדקה וחסד " ("through charity and kindness"), reinforcing the idea that performing acts of kindness and giving charity is a form of honoring Hashem. Hashem often presents us with opportunities to give tzedakah or perform chesed as a test of our faith and character. Parting with our time or money can be difficult, but we must remember: we never lose by honoring Hashem. He is fully capable of repaying us many times over. One individual shared that a rabbi he knew reached out, requesting help with the final $12,000 needed for a down payment on a home. The rabbi promised to repay $1,000 monthly over the next year. Although it was a significant sum, the man agreed to help. Shortly after, an unexpected announcement regarding the tariffs put all of his orders on hold, causing him to reconsider. However, he reminded himself that he had already committed — and more importantly, that the rabbi needed the funds. He overcame his hesitation and sent the full $12,000. A few days later, he unexpectedly received a check from the IRS for nearly $15,000. Neither he nor his accountant could explain it — until it became clear to him: this was all a test from Hashem. He was never meant to have to give up that money, Hashem just wanted to see if he would be able to part with it in the performance of this great Mitzvah of lending money. Another man shared a similar story. A friend urgently needed $315, and without hesitation, he handed over his credit card. Due to a minor credit card fee, he ended up paying $324. Less than an hour later, he returned home to find that the fencing work he'd commissioned had just been completed. The invoice totaled $3,324 — but the contractor offered to reduce the charge to an even $3,000. The amount waived? Exactly $324. These stories beautifully illustrate the divine providence and care Hashem shows those who give generously. Acts of tzedakah and chesed not only honor Hashem — they bring His blessings into our lives. Shabbat Shalom.

In this shiur, delivered in Ba'er Miriam, Rav Burg explores the inner nature of the Racham bird. In today's day and age it is popular to put things in "context" in order to find compassion for those who commit atrocities. Ultimately this leads to the development of a cruel society. Similarly, in relationships, while there is often value in being compassionate, we must learn to create healthy boundaries when someone is showing up in ways that are inappropriate and make us feel unsafe. The Racham bird may be compassionate, but it's compassionate even to the cruel.

Assembling and disassembling the Tabernacle was a difficult task that Moshe repeated for seven days. Each morning he placed the vertical beams into their silver sockets, and affixed the golden rings on the top of the beams. He placed the horizontal bars that went on each side of the vertical beams, including the snaking bar that went through turned corners. He covered the Tabernacle with the four different covers, and arranged the whole courtyard. It was lots of work and Moshe did it himself seven days in a row, assembling the Tabernacle each morning, and then disassembling it once the day's work was finished. Wouldn't it be easier to simply assemble it once for good? In this very special Parsha podcast, we explore the curious week of inauguration of the Tabernacle.– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –This Parsha Podcast is dedicated in honor of a new baby: Yosef Simcha Borowsky, the new son of our dear friends David and Chana Borowsky.

Shemini | The Sound of Silence: Vayidom Aharon, by Rav Yitzchak Etshalom How are we to understand Aharon's silence? Aharon's reaction to the death of his sons, Nadav and Avihu, is summarized in two words: וידם אהרן. Translation, meaning and implications of these two words are the fodder for much exegetic and homiletic analysis. A survey of the uses of the word דום and דמם throughout Tanakh allows us a glimpse to a possible holistic meaning that fits Aharon's reaction as well as the sun's stopping for Yehoshua and the קול דממה דקה heard by Eliyahu.
