Not only Kodesh but even Terumah

This class explores whether the obligation to separate terumah (the priestly portion) requires it to be taken exclusively from the best produce, examining the differing views of the Talmud and Sifrei, and how these opinions impact both the mitzvah's fulfillment and its broader lessons for beautifying all mitzvos. https://www.torahrecordings.com/likutei-sichos/033/006_003

Giving Terumah from the BestThe Sifrei and Talmud differ on whether giving Terumah from the finest produce is merely an ideal or an obligation. The Rebbe explains that the dispute hinges on whether this requirement is a general enhancement of a mitzvah or a unique law of Terumah itself.

In this episode of the Parsha Review Podcast, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe delves into Parshas Tetzaveh, focusing on the garments (bigdei kehuna) of the Kohen Gadol (High Priest). He highlights the verse commanding Moshe to speak to the "wise-hearted" (chachmei lev) whom Hashem invests with wisdom to create these sacred vestments, questioning how former slaves in Egypt, unskilled in craftsmanship, could suddenly excel. The key insight: True wisdom stems from a deep desire (ratzon) for it, not prior education or skills—Hashem grants wisdom to those who seek it passionately, as per the Mishnah's definition of wisdom as learning from everyone without prejudice.Rabbi Wolbe illustrates this with modern and historical examples: Elon Musk's rapid mastery of cars and rockets despite no prior knowledge, driven by insatiable curiosity; Reb Elyashiv's fervent Torah study at age 102; Rav Moshe Feinstein's multiple completions of the Talmud (101 times, four cycles); and a Talmudic story responding to a Roman noblewoman's query on why wisdom goes to the wise—they're the ones who will use it productively. He contrasts this with mediocrity, urging never-ending pursuit of knowledge to avoid spiritual stagnation, and ties it to parenting: Instill a love for Torah from infancy (e.g., teaching "Torah Tziva Lanu Moshe" as first words) and encourage children's "why" questions to foster curiosity.The discussion extends to appreciating Hashem's daily miracles in nature (e.g., the apple's infinite potential), rejecting "mother nature" for divine command (mishpatei piv), and the Amidah's first request for wisdom. Ultimately, desire is the root of achievement—eternal in Torah vs. temporary in wealth or fame—warning against boredom leading to sin and advocating lifelong vitality through learning. He concludes with a blessing for wisdom-seeking and an amazing Shabbos._____________This episode of the Parsha Review Podcast is dedicated in honor of Lenny & Teresa FriedmanDownload & 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 February 24, 2026, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on February 27, 2026_____________Subscribe: Apple Podcasts (https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/parsha-review-podcast-rabbi-aryeh-wolbe/id1651930083)Spotify (https://open.spotify.com/show/22lv1kXJob5ZNLaAl6CHTQ) to stay inspired! Share your questions at awolbe@torchweb.org or visit torchweb.org for more Torah content.  _____________About the Host:Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe, Director of TORCH in Houston, brings decades of Torah scholarship to guide listeners in applying Jewish wisdom to daily life.  To directly send your questions, comments, and feedback: awolbe@torchweb.org_____________Support Our Mission:Help us share Jewish wisdom globally by sponsoring an episode at torchweb.org.

Shiur given by Rabbi Yosef Fishman on Parsha. Shiur recorded in Yeshivas Ohr Reuven, Monsey, NY.

In this Parshas Terumah review, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe focuses on the practical meaning of the Tabernacle (Mishkan) command: “Make Me a sanctuary and I will dwell in them” (Exodus 25:8)—not “in it,” but “in them” (the people). God doesn't need a house; the Mishkan is for building intimate closeness between Hashem and the Jewish people. The Temple (and today synagogues/study halls) is a place of relationship, security, and nurturing divine connection—not a distant monument.Key lessons & practical applications:The Mishkan's purpose — God wants to reside within us (V'shachanti b'tocham). The Holy of Holies had two cherubim facing each other (God & Israel); when Jews follow Torah, they face; when not, they turn away. The home/temple is for private, intimate time with God.Gratitude for seeing descendants — Sarah, Rivka, and Rachel never saw grandchildren; Leah likely saw Asenat. Today's privilege of seeing grandchildren/great-grandchildren is enormous—grandparents must influence positively without interfering (e.g., no naming veto; parents alone decide).Naming & prophecy — Parents receive prophetic guidance at birth/bris (alleged Midrash). Adding a second name (e.g., after deceased relative) is common. Spontaneous additions (like Rabbi's son Yehuda-Noach at bris) reflect divine inspiration.Jealousy vs. knowledge of Hashem — First commandment (“Anochi Hashem…”) and last (“Lo tachmod”) connect: coveting denies Hashem's perfect plan for you. Compare only to your own potential.Modern miracles & awe — Technology (smartphones, Neuralink) reveals Hashem's wonders—don't let them become routine. Israeli survival despite missiles is ongoing splitting of the sea.The rabbi urges bold Jewish pride (yarmulke/tzitzit/tefillin in public), relentless self-improvement, and living with awe: see daily yesh me'ayin (creation from nothing) and thank Hashem constantly._____________This episode of the Parsha Review Podcast is dedicated in honor of Lenny & Teresa FriedmanDownload & 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 February 20, 2026, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on February 22, 2026_____________Subscribe: Apple Podcasts (https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/parsha-review-podcast-rabbi-aryeh-wolbe/id1651930083)Spotify (https://open.spotify.com/show/22lv1kXJob5ZNLaAl6CHTQ) to stay inspired! Share your questions at awolbe@torchweb.org or visit torchweb.org for more Torah content.  _____________About the Host:Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe, Director of TORCH in Houston, brings decades of Torah scholarship to guide listeners in applying Jewish wisdom to daily life.  To directly send your questions, comments, and feedback: awolbe@torchweb.org_____________Support Our Mission:Help us share Jewish wisdom globally by sponsoring an episode at torchweb.org.

This week’s Torah portion from the annual cycle is a major ‘shift’ from the mainline story of the Exodus. After Moses heads up the mountain, for forty days and forty nights, the focus is now on getting ready to build something. And why? Why now? It’s almost like He knows something, before we get to that part of the story. It turns out, there’s even more to it than that. Join Mark Call of Shabbat Shalom Mesa fellowship for a provocative two-part look at parsha Terumah, Exodus chapter 25 through almost all of 27, which begins with the command from YHVH to “take for Me an OFFERING.” From a specific group of people, of a specific list of items, and for a specific purpose. The Erev Shabbat reading gives the details, of which there are many: https://hebrewnationonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/SSM-2-20-Terumah-teaching-podcast-x.mp3 The impressive level of detail is this description is certainly one of the most memorable aspects of this parsha. It’s also at the heart of what might even be called ‘controversy.’ Why so much detail about a mobile tent in the wilderness? After all, it was later replaced by the temple, twice, and destroyed, twice. Some will again even claim that it’s “Old” testament, and therefore ‘done away with’ – like those temples. We may have even heard it called “boring.” And yet, as Mark reminds us in the Sabbath day midrash, there is “no idle word” in His Torah. Teruman: “That ‘boring DETAIL’ is a Big Flashing Red HTML tag – if we see it” https://hebrewnationonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/WT-CooH-2-21-Terumah-The-ATBASH-around-Idolatry-and-the-Golden-Calf-then-and-Now-podcast-xxx.mp3 The combined two-part reading and Sabbath midrash:

Rabbi Pinchas Allouche, head Rabbi at Congregation Beth Tefillah in Scottsdale, and the host of the Rabbi Allouche podcast, joins Seth for the full hour to talk about this week's Torah portion, known as Terumah. They explore the importance of focusing on the "art" rather than the "frame," using the example of a beautiful painting and its frame. Rabbi Allouche shares insights from the Torah portion, discussing the building of the tabernacle and the symbolism of God dwelling among His people. They also delve into the concept of being "made of one piece" and the value of giving and taking in relationships.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Ark of the Covenant - Torah Portion - Terumah: (Exodus 25–27:19) by Shawn Ozbun

This is a recording of Rabbi David Kasher's class, The Weekly Parashah, a collaboration between Hadar and IKAR.

Parshas Terumah: Gold and Grain The Mishkan is built from gold, wood, and precious stones. But at its center stand two vessels that mirror each other: the Aron and the Shulchan. One holds the Torah from Heaven. The other holds bread made by human hands. This episode explores why the Shulchan was crowned like the Aron, and what it teaches about the balance between Torah and parnassah. Drawing on Rashi and the Lubavitcher Rebbe, we uncover a powerful truth: material life and spiritual purpose are not rivals. When aligned, they become one structure capable of holding the Divine Presence.

The pasuk says in this week's Parashat Terumah, וְעָשׂוּ לִי מִקְדָּשׁ וְשָׁכַנְתִּי בְּתוֹכָם Hashem commanded the Jewish people to make a Mishkan so that He could rest His Presence among them. Obviously, the Presence of Hashem cannot be contained in a physical building. Perhaps one of the lessons we can learn from here is that if we make a place for Hashem to come into our lives, He will reveal His Presence to us in ways that can transcend nature. How do we make that place? By believing in His control and His abilities. The Be'er HaParasha related a story that recently took place, heard directly from the man involved. A man whom we'll call Yehuda had just merited his first baby after four years of marriage. Last year on Chol HaMoed Pesach he was learning the sefer Netivot Shalom, and there he read that if a person has proper emunah — namely, that nothing is hard for Hashem and He can always help no matter what the issue is — then he can merit his own personal Keriat Yam Suf. The sefer advised having those thoughts and feelings especially on the seventh day of Pesach, when Keriat Yam Suf occurred. Yehuda came home that day very excited to put into practice what he had just learned. He was going to work on believing that Hashem can do anything, including giving him and his wife a baby. He also invited his sister to stay with them for Shevi'i shel Pesach, as she had been struggling with shidduchim for almost seven years. He wanted her to also have this emunah so she could have her very own Keriat Yam Suf as well. They read stories about emunah and statements of Chazal about Hashem, and they truly took to heart that Hashem could help them in an instant. They felt so strong in their emunah that they could already feel the joy of salvation. Now, less than a year later, on the Sunday of Parashat Beshalach, this sister celebrated her wedding. And on Tuesday of Parashat Beshalach, Yehuda and his wife celebrated the birth of their very first baby. True belief in Hashem's salvation can do wonders. A woman told me she was diagnosed with ovarian cancer and was instructed to schedule surgery immediately to have it removed. The doctors sounded very negative and instilled a great deal of fear in her. She is a woman who learns emunah daily and refused to let the diagnosis overtake her. She focused on emunah, on Hashem, and on praying, and two weeks later the surgery was done. They told her they believed they removed everything, but she would need months of chemotherapy going forward. She asked them to please take a biopsy before starting any chemo. They told her it was ninety-nine percent certain cancer and she would definitely need treatment. She answered, "I am going to be from the one percent. Please check it." She then went and strengthened her emunah even more, reviewing articles she had saved about how doctors' prognoses are meaningless when it comes to Hashem. She even sent them to her family to strengthen them as well. At the next appointment she asked again if they had taken the biopsy. Once again they told her it was ninety-nine percent a problem, but they had done the test and were waiting for results. Once again she said, "Ninety-nine percent means there is one percent that it is fine, and I believe Hashem can put me in that one percent." The next day, Erev Shabbat, she received a call from one of the doctors who told her, "Your prayers must have been answered. Everything is fine. You don't need any chemotherapy." She felt the greatest feeling — the feeling of Hashem's salvation, the feeling that her emunah was rewarded. She was overwhelmed with gratitude. The more we want Hashem in our lives, the more He reveals Himself to us. Shabbat Shalom.

Was the Mishkan a response to the Chet HaEigel or was there a standalone reason for it?

The Tabernacle was a portable Temple in which the presence of God dwelled.

The half shekel donation for the sockets of the Mishkan represent the bitul that serves as the foundation for everything else we accomplish in our lives. The capacity for folly that leads one astray must be transformed into “holy craziness,” a willingness to go beyond habit and limitation in the service of Hashem. Ufaratza means bursting past the confines of schedule and calculation that hastens the ultimate breakthrough of Mashiach. This class, taught by Rabbi Shais Taub, is based on Parshas Terumah in Likkutei Sichos Vol. 1.

Our Parsha begins with the fundraising effort to be conducted in the Wilderness where the nation was asked to donate the required materials for the construction of the Tabernacle, it's vessels, and the vestments of the high priest. In this enjoyable Parsha podcast we go deep and deeper on three different parts of the Parsha: we discuss the unusual ordering of the materials needed for the tabernacle; we probe the apparently conflicting definitions of cherubs; and we take a fascinating look at the unusual creature - the tachash - whose skin was used to create the upper curtain of the Tabernacle.– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –DONATE: 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.
