The Henry and Lisa Manoucheri Parsha Shiur  Parshas VaYishlach The Uniqueness of the Jew & Striving for Our Divinity 

In this week's episode, we take a closer look at the first half of Koheles. What are the tools that G-d placed in the world and in man himself that should teach us the importance of careful adherence to Torah? Similarly, Shlomo prophetically looks at the outcome, how have we done with all these tools? And similarly, Shlomo looks at human failure and tragedy, and distinguishes between the common tragedy and the ultimate tragedy.    Nach Yomi: Join R' Wittenstein's Nach Yomi on WhatsApp. We learn a perek a day five days a week, with a nine minute shiur covering the key issues.

The Psychology Behind the Parsha Parshas VaYishlach In AND Out of the Box

This week on the podcast, TORAH IN REAL TIME WITH RABBI SHLOMO GEMARA, we step into PARSHAT VAYISHLACH — a portion alive with tension, courage, and the pounding heart of a man walking straight into his destiny. Jacob is no longer the young fugitive who once fled his brother's fury. He is a husband, a father, a shepherd, a survivor. But there is one thing he has avoided for twenty long years: facing Esau. And now, he must. The portion opens with a chilling message: Esau is approaching. With four hundred men. The desert itself seems to hold its breath. Jacob divides his camp, sends gifts, whispers desperate prayers. The past he ran from is no longer behind him — it's charging toward him. And then comes the night. Jacob, alone by the riverbank, is seized by a mysterious figure — part man, part angel, part reflection of his own soul. They wrestle until dawn in a battle of flesh and faith. When the sun rises, Jacob limps… but he is transformed. He receives a new name: Israel — the one who wrestles and does not let go. By morning, the long-awaited encounter arrives. Yet instead of violence, Jacob meets an unexpected miracle: a brother's embrace. But Vayishlach doesn't end there. We witness the tragedy of Dinah, the fall of Shechem, the death of Rachel on the road, and Isaac's final breath. These are moments that scar families and shape the future of a nation. Vayishlach is raw drama — a story about the wounds we carry, the fears we finally face, and the moments that rename us. It asks each of us: What from our past still follows us? What must we confront to move forward? And when we struggle — truly struggle — who do we become? ——

This week, we step into Vayetze—the seventh parsha of the Torah, a portion overflowing with movement, vulnerability, and deep human transformation. Vayetze begins with Jacob on the run—leaving his home, his parents, and the brother he has deceived. He is alone, exhausted, frightened, and unsure of what comes next. And it's precisely in that emptiness, in that wilderness, that something extraordinary happens: heaven opens. Jacob dreams of a ladder reaching from earth to the heavens, angels ascending and descending, a vision that will shape not only his destiny, but the destiny of our entire people. From that moment, Vayetze becomes a story of journeys—outer and inner. Jacob travels to Haran, where he meets Rachel, Leah, and the complex family through whom the tribes of Israel will be born. But he also travels inward: toward responsibility, toward love, toward struggle, toward blessing. He works for years out of devotion, endures deception from Laban, builds a family, and slowly transforms from a solitary young fugitive into a leader with purpose and depth. The God who appeared to him in that nighttime vision remains a quiet, steady companion along the way. At its heart, Vayetze teaches us something timeless: that transformation often begins the moment we step into the unknown; that holiness can appear in the most unexpected places—on the road, by a well, in a field, or in moments of heartbreak and fatigue; and that our journeys, even the ones we never asked for, are shaping us in ways we cannot always see. So join me as we explore Vayetze—a parsha that reminds us that we are guided, even when we feel alone, and that growth sometimes arrives through the very experiences that challenge us most. ——

Shalom aleichem and welcome to Torah in Real Time, the podcast where ancient words meet today's headlines, and where the struggles of our ancestors illuminate the challenges of our lives. I'm Rabbi Shlomo Gemara, and I'm so glad you're here with me. This week, the Torah pulls us into Parashat Toledot, a portion whose very name means “generations.” Yet instead of a tidy family portrait, we're handed a story crackling with tension, rivalry, longing, and love that sometimes hurts more than it heals. We meet Isaac and Rebecca: the only monogamous couple in the entire Torah, desperately praying for children after twenty years of barrenness. When the twins finally arrive, they come out fighting. One is red and restless, a hunter born with the dust of the wild on him; the other clings to his brother's heel, quiet, calculating, already reaching for something bigger. From the womb they wrestle, and the struggle never really ends. In Toledot, a family gropes toward its future. Isaac digs wells and searches for blessing. Rebecca carries the burden of prophecy and will do anything to see it fulfilled. Esau roars in from the field, starving, and trades eternity for a bowl of lentil stew. Jacob puts on skins and a borrowed voice to claim what he believes is his destiny. Nothing is simple. Everything is unforgettable. And somehow, three thousand years later, it still feels like the evening news. Because this portion refuses to let us look away from the messy, sacred work of transmission: How do we pass on faith when siblings see the world so differently? How do parents love children who are nothing alike? What happens when prophecy and politics collide in the same household? And how do we shape the next generation when the ground beneath us keeps shifting? This week on Torah in Real Time, we'll dive deep into Toledot and ask what it has to say about the headlines screaming at us right now: the raising of the Palestinian flag in public squares across Toronto and Canada, the imminent sale of F-35 fighter jets to Saudi Arabia, the fault lines running through families, communities, and nations when identity, loyalty, and survival are all on the table. Because if Jacob and Esau teach us anything, it's that the future is never guaranteed. It's wrestled for, one difficult blessing at a time. So settle in, open your Chumash (or just open your heart), and let's learn Toledot together, in real time, in this time. Welcome to the conversation. ——

Sources Can kodshim kalim be eaten when there is no altar? Abaye proved from a braita of Rabbi Yishmael that they cannot be eaten. Rabbi Yirmia raised a difficulty against Abaye from a contradiction between braitot, resolving it in a way that one would conclude that kodshim kalim could be eaten even without an altar. However, Ravina provides an alternative resolution to the contradiction, and the Gemara brings another. Rav Huna says in the name of Rav that the altar in the Tabernacle of Shilo was made of stone. However, a difficulty is raised against this from a braita that explains that the fire of Moshe's copper altar continued until the time of Shlomo. They resolve it by saying that Rav Huna held by a different tannaitic opinion. Alternatively, one can explain that the fire could have still been on Moshe's altar, even though they were using the stone altar. If so, what was the fire used for? The Gemara suggests two possible answers. A Mishna is brought which says that the altar in the time of the Second Temple was expanded to be larger than the one in the First Temple, from 28x28 cubits to 32x32. Why? Rav Yosef suggests it was expanded as they needed more space. Ravin explained it based on a Mishna in Middot that described the addition of the shitin, two holes that were added for the libations.

Can anti-Semitism be ended? Let's find out...

Welcome to my new show with my dear friend, Rabbi Shlomo Gemara, called 'THE PARSHA IN REAL TIME'. In it will be learn aspects of the Torah portion with you through the lens of current events. This week's Torah portion, Chayei Sarah — “The Life of Sarah” — begins with a paradox. It carries the name of life, yet opens with loss. We meet Abraham mourning Sarah, searching for a burial place that grants her dignity, and then turning, slowly and courageously, toward the future. He arranges a partner for Isaac, ensuring continuity, resilience, and faith across generations. Chayei Sarah is a story of mourning and rebuilding — of laying profound pain to rest while holding fast to hope. It shows us that even in heartbreak, we are asked to move forward with purpose. Abraham refuses to be swallowed by despair; instead, he models grief that breathes, grief that still believes in tomorrow. In our moment, as a fragile cease-fire holds between Israel and Gaza, Chayei Sarah feels achingly relevant. Our people are holding raw grief — for the lives taken on October 7th, for the suffering and losses that followed, for families shattered, for hostages in captivity, for civilians forever changed by this war. And yet, like Abraham, we are also standing in that sacred in-between: between sorrow and responsibility, between memory and the future we must still build. This portion calls on us to honor the sanctity of life, to pursue dignity even in grief, and to imagine what restoration might look like. A cease-fire is not peace; it is a pause in devastation. But pauses matter. They allow us to breathe, to pray, to act with clarity — and to envision a future where coexistence is more than a wish whispered in the dark. Today on the podcast, we explore Chayei Sarah, the wisdom it offers about grief, hope, and renewal — and how its ancient lessons help guide us through this delicate moment. A moment where we pray the pause becomes a bridge, where life is protected, and where healing can begin. ——

Co-Host Shlomo Slatkin (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/shlomo) My first-time guest is Shlomo Slatkin. In addition to being a Rabbi in Baltimore, he's also the founder of the Marriage Restoration Project. He has a lot of valuable insights into modern manhood, our relationships with women and the missing rite of passage from boyhood to manhood in today's culture. First off, Shlomo is a man who walks the talk. He and his wife have a great relationship and are raising a beautiful family. In his daily life, Shlomo works with men who want to achieve a closer connection with the woman in their lives but are at somewhat of a loss as to how to do so. Interestingly, he believes it's not because they lack knowledge or resilience, but rather because they've outgrown the emotional survival strategies they learned as boys. Shlomo is all about unlearning those outdated patterns and showing up with clarity, presence and emotional honesty. So how do we as men take ownership of our emotions instead of shaming or blaming? Could it be that we often feel threatened in relationships, even though we're supposed to be the man of the house? How can we avoid being either a petulant child or a passive wuss? Where is the "balance" in a relationship with a woman that keeps our power and dignity intact as men, while honoring and protecting those we love? In a world where far too many men are running around like 40-year-old little boys who never grew up, Shlomo's message is just the kick in the pants we need nowadays. Have you discovered VAMANOS yet?

Have you ever weighed in on the decision of a world leader? Well, according to Shlomo ha'Melech, maybe you're not qualified! We came up with two of our own approaches to our pasuk, then learned Metzudas David's.

Israel y Hamás han firmado el alto el fuego en Gaza como primera fase del plan de paz propuesto por Trump. Este entrará definitivamente en vigor una vez el Gobierno de Netanyahu lo apruebe. El exministro de Asuntos Exteriores de Israel, Shlomo Ben Ami, lo ha celebrado en el informativo 24 horas de RNE asegurando que es el fin de un calvario y ha reconocido que "el hecho de que Trump, a su manera, haya conseguido ponerle fin es un gran logro. Las partes tienen interés en abrir un nuevo capítulo." Ben Ami ha aclarado que ahora mismo "no se están tocando las cuestiones más profundas o complicadas de lo que es un acuerdo en general" y que incluso solo se está hablando de Gaza o el intercambio de rehenes, pero que considera que ahora lo importante es estabilizar la situación de la Franja para que puedan venir etapas posteriores: "El tema del Estado palestino no viene al caso en estos momentos."Escuchar audio

A braita explains that the words “מעם הארץ” — “from one of the land” — mentioned in the section about the individual’s sin offering serve to exclude the king and the kohen gadol. The braita then questions this drasha, noting that the king and kohen gadol are already explicitly excluded by the verses. It concludes that the exemption in the braita for the kohen gadol applies in a case where he committed a forbidden act unwittingly, but without relying on an erroneous ruling. The exemption for the king applies when he sinned before being appointed. However, this interpretation aligns only with Rabbi Shimon’s view, as the rabbis maintain that in such a case, the king must bring an individual sin offering. To reconcile this with the rabbis’ position, Rav Zevid in the name of Rava suggests a scenario in which the king ate half the requisite amount of forbidden fat (cheilev) before becoming king, and then ate the other half afterward. In this case, he would not be obligated to bring an individual sin offering. Rava asked Rav Nachman: if someone ate half the requisite amount before becoming king, then became king, and later ceased being king before eating the second half, would the two halves combine to obligate him to bring an individual sin offering? They attempt to resolve the question by comparing it to a parallel case involving a Jew who ceased practicing religion, a meshumad, but the comparison is ultimately rejected. Rabbi Zeira asked Rav Sheshet, according to Rabbi Shimon’s position: if someone ate a piece of fat whose status — permitted or forbidden — was unclear, and only discovered the issue after becoming king, would he bring a provisional guilt offering? The reasoning is that the type of sacrifice does not change with the person’s change in status from a regular individual to a king. The question remains unresolved. A braita presents two different drashot to derive that a meshumad does not bring an individual sin offering. The practical difference between the two derivations is explored. There is a debate regarding which transgressions qualify someone as a meshumad. A braita explains that when the Torah refers to a nasi, it means a king — as no one is above him except God. Rabbi Yehuda haNasi, known as Rebbi, asked Rabbi Chiya whether he would be required to bring the unique offering designated for a nasi. Rabbi Chiya responded that Rebbi had a counterpart in Babylonia, the Exilarch, and therefore did not meet the criteria of someone who has no one above him but God. A difficulty is raised, as both kings of the kingdoms of Judea and Israel would bring the offering, yet it is explained that Rebbi was subservient to the Exilarch. Rav Safra offers a different version of the discussion between Rebbi and Rabbi Chiya. The kohen gadol who brings a unique sacrifice is specifically one who was anointed with the shemen hamishcha, the special oil prepared by Moshe. The Mishna outlines the legal differences between a kohen gadol who was anointed and one who assumed the role by wearing the special garments. It also distinguishes between a kohen gadol currently serving and one who is no longer in the position. A braita records a debate between Rabbi Yehuda and Rabbi Yosi regarding whether the shemen hamishcha was prepared in a miraculous manner. Rabbi Yehuda, who believes it was prepared miraculously, supports his view by citing several miracles associated with the oil, arguing that its miraculous preparation should not be surprising. If a king inherits the throne from his father, he is not anointed, but the kohen gadol is. Only kings from the Davidic dynasty were anointed. Challenges to this theory are raised: Shlomo was anointed despite his father being king, and Yehu, an Israelite king, was also anointed. These are resolved by explaining that Yehu was anointed with balsam oil, not the shemen hamishcha, and that Shlomo’s anointment was due to uncertainty over succession. Yehoachaz, whose father was also king, was anointed because he became king instead of his older brother Yehoyakim, who was two years his senior. Was he really two years his senior? The Gemara delves into the different verses to understand the age order among the brothers.
