We all want to live long. But how long is a long life? Centenarians are still rare. Global life expectancy is around 70 years old. In healthier, richer countries, maybe 80. But when you open up Scripture, you find ages an order of magnitude larger. Adam lived to 930. Methuselah to 969. How do we understand the radical difference in the ages of the ancients? What changed from then till now? Why did God shrink the average life expectancy? This question intrigued many of our sages, and in this very fun and interesting podcast, we explore some of the ideas that they shared.– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –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.

This week's parsha continues Moshe's monologue to the nation in the weeks preceding his passing. He begins by recounting his repeated efforts in trying to convince God to rescind His decree that Moshe not enter the Land; Moshe then begins the retelling of the Torah; and we read many warnings and predictions about proper behavior and the consequences of abandoning Torah and mitzvos. This is a parsha replete with iconic verses and big themes!– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –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.

There are many levels of Torah. There are many ways to acquire Torah, 48 by the calculation of our Sages. The human with the greatest understanding of Torah was obviously Moshe, the one who received Torah directly from God. In our Parsha we get a stunning description of the profound depth of Moshe's understanding of Torah. When we plumb the matter further, we discover all sorts of secrets. There are actually 50 dimensions of Torah. The 48 ways to acquire Torah are only for the first 48 levels. Moshe's understanding went to the 49th level. Each level is a profound wellspring, be'er (באר) in Hebrew.– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –This Parsha Podcast is dedicated in honor of the person without whom there would never have been a Parsha Podcast.

A Century of Cold-Hardy Trees Saint Lawrence Nursery in Potsdam, NY, has been helping cold-climate growers find success since the 1920s. Originally founded by Fred Ashworth and later expanded by Bill MacKentley, the nursery is now stewarded by Connor and Allyssa Hardiman, the third generation in a nonfamilial succession. What Sets Saint Lawrence Nursery Apart Cold-Hardy Genetics Over 250 apple varieties Trialed at temperatures as low as -34°F Trees that thrive from Alaska to Michigan Only Standard Rootstock Seedling Antonovka (apples) and Baccata (crabs) for resilience and longevity Trees that can live 100+ years More Than Apples Black walnuts, butternuts, hazelnuts, and berry bushes Custom grafting for heirloom preservation Regionally adapted selections from partnerships and testing plots Passing the Torch of Generational Wisdom and Branding The nursery was handed down without a sale. It was gifted by Bill to Connor in a rare act of agricultural generosity. The plan is to do the same one day. “Love is what makes the world go 'round,” Bill often says, and it's embedded in every tree tag and planting guide. Cold Hardy Trees For Orchardists and Backyard Growers Most customers are small-scale planters or long-time loyalists.

In his speech to the Nation, Moshe revisits the episode of the Spies that occurred 39 years prior. When the nation was on the verge of entering the Land, Moshe commissioned 12 distinguished men to reconnoiter the Land and to share their findings with the nation. It was a debacle and a fiasco. As a result of the report, the nation abandoned hopes to enter the land. They became defeatist and lapsed in their faith. As a result, the nation was condemned to remain in the wilderness for 40 years. Now, when the nation is on the verge of entering the land once again, Moshe revisits this story. In his retelling, he reveals some startling details that completely upend our understanding of this pivotal event. In this Parsha Podcast we study and probe the shocking accusation that the nation made as a consequence of the Spies' report.– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –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.

Join Dave and Breeze in this laughter-filled episode of the GenXtra Podcast as they discuss their recent escapades and adventures. From a long, scenic road trip across the northern states, visiting both the picturesque Torch Lake in Michigan and experiencing live music magic at the Shinedown concert, there's a lot to unpack. Amidst the recounting of fun nights out, unexpected pizza-sharing moments, and helping hands extended towards those in need, the conversation takes a humorous turn as they dive into the 'poop lake' dilemma and tackle unfortunate cruise news involving a norovirus outbreak. With thoughtful reflections and lively banter, Dave and Joe keep it light-hearted yet engaging as they share their experiences and observations, making for another entertaining episode of their podcast journey.
Every rainbow carries a hidden message that ancient warriors would instantly recognize—but most of us miss it completely. When an archer surrenders, he turns his bow backwards, pointing it away from his enemy. The rainbow, Rabbi Bentzi Epstein reveals, is God doing exactly that.In this episode, we dive into the aftermath of the flood when Noah's family made a surprising choice: they refused to have children. Discover why God had to make an unprecedented covenant to convince humanity to rebuild, and what that promise actually guarantees (hint: it's not what you think).Along the way, Rabbi Epstein tackles a genuine stumper about what people could eat before the flood, explores why the soul resides in blood according to Torah, and explains the two distinct types of rainbows—each carrying a different divine message. We'll also uncover why modern debates about life and death echo ancient wisdom about when the soul enters and leaves the body.From the peculiar mathematics of parenting to God's precise wording about never destroying "all" flesh again, this episode reveals how the Torah's seemingly simple stories contain layers of meaning that speak directly to our world today.

5 weeks before his passing, Moses gives a three-parsha-long speech to the nation, which constitutes his last will and testament. He begins with a retrospective of the history of the nation over the past 40 years since the Exodus – subtly rebuking the nation, guiding them, admonishing them, ensuring that they don't repeat their mistakes of yore.– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –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.

The ninth day of the Hebrew month of Av is the saddest day of the Jewish calendar. All manner of calamities and tragedies and disasters befell our people on this day. On this day the nation was condemned to wonder in the wilderness for 40 years. On this day both Temples were destroyed. On this day, the last stronghold of the Jewish rebellion in Betar was destroyed. Over the millennia, many more calamities occurred on this most inauspicious day. It is a day of fasting and mourning. What exactly are we mourning about? What is the purpose of mourning? What ought we to do on this day? In this special podcast we learn about the essence of the sadness of this day, and what we can do about it.– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –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.

Accidents are unfortunate. Accidents that lead to death are a catastrophe. Among the myriad of subjects discussed in this week's double Parsha is the law of the accidental murderer. When someone kills accidentally, they are punished by being confined to certain cities from which they mustn't leave. These cities of refuge serve as open-air prisons, which the accidental murderers must remain until the death of the high priest. In this very special and interesting Parsha podcast, we explore the fascinating connection between the death of the high priest and the release of accidental murderers, and ponder the over-representation of murderers on the East side of the Jordan River versus the West.– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –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.

In the pottery world, there's lots of different ways that makers can fire their work. Thanks to modern technology, most kilns can be fired by just one person over the course of a day. And some kilns don't even need human supervision. But other, older methods are still around. And for those, it takes a village. In the mountains of western North Carolina, around a dozen potters recently gathered for 10 days for a wood firing, a method that's been used for millennia.
In this episode of the Parsha Review Podcast, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe explores the combined Torah portions of Matos and Mas'ei, which conclude the Book of Numbers. He highlights the turbulent history of the Jewish people in Numbers, marked by crises like the spies, Korach's rebellion, and the Baal Peor incident, setting the stage for Deuteronomy's review of the Torah's teachings over Moses' final 36 days. Rabbi Wolbe delves into Matos, which opens with the laws of oaths, emphasizing the sacredness of one's word. He stresses that in God's world, every spoken commitment must be fulfilled, as one's word reflects their relationship with the divine attribute of truth (Emet). He shares stories of sages like Rabbi Siegel, who left a wedding early to honor a promise to a child, and Rabbi Nosson Tzvi Finkel, who, despite severe Parkinson's, attended a bris to keep his word, illustrating the meticulous care sages took to uphold truth. Rabbi Wolbe recounts an anecdote about Rabbi Yaakov Kamenetsky, who chose an authentic sermon over a polished one during a rabbinic interview to avoid misleading a congregation, underscoring the importance of absolute truth. The episode also covers the tribes of Reuven, Gad, and half of Menashe opting to settle in Transjordan, contingent on aiding the conquest of Israel, highlighting communal responsibility. Rabbi Wolbe defines spirituality as infusing physical actions—like prayer or mitzvot—with divine meaning, contrasting this with mere religion, and urges listeners to live with absolute truth to emulate God. He concludes by encouraging self-evaluation to ensure one's actions align with divine truth, preparing for the ultimate accountability before God._____________This episode (Ep 7.39) of the Parsha Review Podcast by Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe on Parshas Matos-Masei 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 Studios (C) to an online TORCHzoom.com audience on July 21, 2025, in Passaic, New Jersey.Released as Podcast on July 23, 2025_____________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!

The episode also covers the tribes of Reuven, Gad, and half of Menashe opting to settle in Transjordan, contingent on aiding the conquest of Israel, highlighting communal responsibility. Rabbi Wolbe defines spirituality as infusing physical actions—like prayer or mitzvot—with divine meaning, contrasting this with mere religion, and urges listeners to live with absolute truth to emulate God. He concludes by encouraging self-evaluation to ensure one's actions align with divine truth, preparing for the ultimate accountability before God._____________This episode (Ep 7.39) of the Parsha Review Podcast by Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe on Parshas Matos-Masei 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 Studios (C) to an online TORCHzoom.com audience on July 21, 2025, in Passaic, New Jersey.Released as Podcast on July 23, 2025_____________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!

What did the nation do over the course of the 40 years in the wilderness? What was their objective? In our parsha we read that the nation stopped in 42 locations over the course of their 40-year sojourn. The Torah delineates the names of the 42 different venues where the nation encamped. What is the salience of such a detailed recounting of the nation's sojourns? In this podcast, we explored this fascinating question. What we discover can serve as an illuminating light in our own journey in life.– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –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.

The Mishnah is a massive, sprawling, and utterly comprehensive canon of Torah law. Spanning 60+ books over 6 Orders, the Mishnah includes all the laws of the Torah. To study it all would take a very long time. To know it all, takes a lifetime. In this podcast, we try to gain an appreciation for the general concepts of Mishnah, beginning in the Order of Planting (Agriculture).– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –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.

In the final episode of the Gate of Generosity series (Day 98, Orchos Tzaddikim, page 578, Treasure for Life edition) on the Jewish Inspiration Podcast, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe emphasizes the importance of using wealth generously to acquire mitzvahs, such as purchasing a costly Esrog, as exemplified by Rabban Gamliel, to demonstrate devotion to Hashem. He compares this to investing in relationships by bringing home small gifts, like flowers, to nurture love and connection, urging listeners to prioritize mitzvahs over material luxuries like car upgrades, and to beautify mitzvahs with items like a fine menorah or Shabbos food to express love for God.Rabbi Wolbe encourages generosity beyond money, such as lending books or household items through gemachs (free loan societies), even if they return damaged, as this is part of the mitzvah. He stresses sharing Torah wisdom as the highest form of generosity, citing Rabbi Noah Weinberg's teaching to “teach what you know,” as it guides others toward eternal life. While warning against squandering wealth on personal desires, he advocates giving to the poor with the best intentions, promising divine rewards unseen by any eye, concluding the Gate of Generosity with a call to support Torch's global Torah outreach.Recorded at TORCH Centre in the Levin Family Studios (B) to a live audience on March 10, 2025, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on July 18, 2025_____________This series on Orchos Tzadikim/Ways of the Righteous is produced in partnership with Hachzek.Join the revolution of daily Mussar study at hachzek.com.We are using the Treasure of Life edition of the Orchos Tzadikkim (Published by Feldheim)_____________Listen, Subscribe & Share: Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/jewish-inspiration-podcast-rabbi-aryeh-wolbe/id1476610783Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4r0KfjMzmCNQbiNaZBCSU7) to stay inspired!

In this episode of the Parsha Review Podcast, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe discusses Parshas Pinchas, focusing on the story of Pinchas's zealous act against Zimri and Cosbi, who publicly defied God's will by engaging in illicit relations, as described in Numbers 25. Rabbi Wolbe highlights the danger of blurring moral lines, as Zimri attempted by bringing a Moabite woman into the Jewish community, comparing it to Rebecca's relief upon learning her conflicting womb movements were due to twins with distinct destinies, not a single confused child. He emphasizes that clarity in commitment to Torah and mitzvahs is crucial, drawing parallels to Haman's and Amalek's attempts to assimilate and confuse the Jewish people, urging listeners to avoid compromise in spiritual matters and to define their stance firmly on the side of holiness and light.Rabbi Wolbe encourages small, intentional steps toward observance without compromising core commitments, using examples like health goals to illustrate the importance of mental resolve even if actions lag. He stresses the need for wisdom to distinguish between holy and unholy, as recited in Havdalah and Talmudic prayers, to avoid confusion. A story of a newly observant Jew publicly affirming their identity as a religious Jew underscores how verbalizing commitment clarifies one's path. Rabbi Wolbe concludes by urging listeners to manifest their spiritual goals through clear identification with Torah values, fostering a deeper connection to God and a purposeful Shabbos._____________This episode (Ep 7.38) of the Parsha Review Podcast by Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe on Parshas Pinchas 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 Studios (C) to an online TORCHzoom.com audience on July 16, 2025, in Passaic, New Jersey.Released as Podcast on July 18, 2025_____________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!

Personal Revival, Nation Awakening & Generational ReformationToday we look to the moral clarity and authority of the Word of God which cuts through the strong delusions, lies and reprobate traps that has caused many to live foolishly and dangerously—specifically in sexual immorality. Christians must make a clear and bold stand in this hour for purity and integrity. Many believe they are free from the obligation and judgement of the Word of God. Many are in a dangerous position because they have joined themselves to the spirit of this age which has produced false-love and inclusion, false-mercy and false-compassion. Join Brian in this newest episode as we speak the truth in love, but without compromise, to honor God's authority and Word.We are currently raising funds for our Sanctuary Building that we are building.

Twitch Mitch challenges Jackson to a lead off! Who will carry the torch?
Great leaders are often irreplaceable. The greatest leader of them all is certainly irreplaceable. But even Moshe must have a successor. In our Parsha, Moshe asks God designate a successor for him after he passes. Who can possibly fill such large shoes? Who can possibly take upon themselves the mantle of leadership of God's Nation? Who can possibly steward the People, lead them across the Jordan, and fulfill what Moshe was unable to fulfill? There was a bit of a dispute regarding who should be chosen: Moshe wanted his sons to succeed him. God said, otherwise: Joshua, your trusty student and confidante will lead the Nation after your passing. What was the dispute between Moshe and God all about? How can it be that Moshe and God had different ideas regarding who should succeed Moshe? In this fascinating Parsha podcast, we propose a novel answer, an answer replete with dramatic ramifications for our own life and decisions.– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –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.

Fr. Eric Nicolai preached this meditation in ernescliff College on July 11, 2025, the feast of Saint Benedict of Nursia.

Your peace will fall upon them.
In this episode of the Jewish Inspiration Podcast, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe continues his discussion on the Gate of Generosity from Orchos Tzaddikim (Day 97, page 573, Treasure for Life edition), emphasizing the profound impact of charity (tzedakah) and generosity. He highlights how tzedakah uplifts nations, citing the Jewish community's outpouring of support after October 7th, including Torch's contribution of thousands of watches for soldiers in Israel. Rabbi Wolbe underscores that generosity extends beyond money to include kind words, thoughts, and actions, all of which accompany a person to the world to come, as supported by Talmudic teachings and verses from Psalms and Isaiah.Drawing on biblical figures like Abraham, King David, and King Solomon, Rabbi Wolbe illustrates how their tzedakah brought honor, life, and divine praise, noting that charity is so powerful that it redeems Israel and exalts God. He emphasizes that the world was built on kindness (olam chesed yibane), urging listeners to embrace generosity as a core trait that engenders blessings and eternal rewards. The episode ties into the Torch campaign, encouraging sponsorship to support global Jewish learning, reinforcing that every act of giving—whether material or spiritual—elevates both the giver and the community.Recorded at TORCH Centre in the Levin Family Studios (B) to a live audience on March 10, 2025, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on July 16, 2025_____________This series on Orchos Tzadikim/Ways of the Righteous is produced in partnership with Hachzek.Join the revolution of daily Mussar study at hachzek.com.We are using the Treasure of Life edition of the Orchos Tzadikkim (Published by Feldheim)_____________Listen, Subscribe & Share: Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/jewish-inspiration-podcast-rabbi-aryeh-wolbe/id1476610783Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4r0KfjMzmCNQbiNaZBCSU7) to stay inspired!

In this episode of the Ask Away series on the Everyday Judaism Podcast, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe addresses a variety of listener questions about Jewish practices and beliefs at the Torch Center in Houston. He clarifies that one does not need to stand when a covered Torah scroll is at rest on the bimah, but standing is required during its transportation, such as when it's removed from the ark or carried, with varying opinions on standing during its reading or blessings. On writing in sacred texts, Rabbi Wolbe explains that notes can be taken to aid Torah study if done respectfully, avoiding excessive markings that diminish a book's sanctity, and encourages maintaining a notebook for learning, as historical sages did. He addresses the disposal of holy texts in a genizah, a designated burial for worn-out sacred items, contrasting past preservation efforts with modern abundance due to printing and digital resources. Finally, Rabbi Wolbe attributes the root of antisemitism to a historical jealousy of the Jewish people's unique relationship with God and the Torah, exacerbated when Jews fail to uphold their responsibilities, urging greater commitment to Jewish values to mitigate such tensions.In this episode of Ask Away we address these questions and topics:Sitting while the Torah is out of the Ark, when it's covered and uncovered, or regarding the person holding the Torah during the Haftorah reading?Is it permissible to write notes in a book like the Book of Judges during a Torah study class?

Uncover the mystical journey of human development that begins before birth. While in the womb, an angel teaches every soul the entire Torah, giving them perfect clarity and knowledge. But the moment they begin their journey into this world, that divine knowledge is erased with a gentle tap on the lips. It's why every baby enters the world crying—they've just lost cosmic understanding and entered a world of confusion.You'll discover why the strongest people face the greatest challenges, how every relationship in this world mirrors our connection to God, and why teaching resilience—not perfection—is a parent's most crucial job.
Korach's rebellion claimed many victims: Some of the perpetrators were swallowed up in a miraculous sinkhole; some were consumed by a divine fire; and some were killed in a plague. In our Parsha, we discover that the sons of Korach did not die. Although they were participants in the rebellion initially, at the very last moment, they repented and were spared. In this Parsha Podcast we explore the fascinating story of the sons of Korach and discover a theme that appears in several other instances in our Parsha. At the risk of being overly presumptuous, I am confident that this podcast will prove to be both intriguing and deeply beneficial.– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –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.

Some subjects are way too dicey address publicly - electrified third rail subjects which zap anyone who approaches it. But Blake Cohn is not afraid of third rails. In fact, he recently launched a podcast that is dedicated exclusively to the untouchable "Third Rails" of Judaism. Fittingly, his show was called "Third Rail Judaism", where he explores and ponders some of the forbidden subjects that others are too scared to tackle. I was honored when Blake asked me to be interviewed for the first episode, an exploration of the kidnapping and assault of Dina, daughter of Jacob. If you are interested in exploring these forbidden topics, subscribe to Blake's show, Third Rail Judaism on Apple Podcasts or elsewhere.– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –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.

The last words of a great man are of special interest to us; they are often poignant and deeply moving. Joshua's final farewell to the people he loved is no exception. On The Bible Study Hour, Dr. James Boice shares some very stirring words in a sermon titled "Passing the Torch." To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/81/29
Pinchas was a man of action, a zealot who avenged God's vengeance and was handsomely rewarded for it. In this parsha we read about his reward, Moses' succession plan, the methods through which the Land will be divided, and another census is done.– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –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.
