In this episode, Rabbi Jeffrey Saks delves into the intriguing world of Chalitza, a Jewish law procedure for dissolving a levirate marriage, through the lens of the Maharsham's Responsum (1:14). This complex case involves a hot air balloon ride, obscure texts, and an exclusive revelation about the Nobel laureate Shai Agnon's potential influence from this case.

Rabbi Jeffrey Sacks is the co-founder of WebYeshiva.org, the leading online source for free Torah content with over 60 hours of new classes per week, the editor of RCA's Tradition Journal and one of the leading authorities on S.Y. Agnon. Join Rabbi Matanky as he talks with Rabbi Saks about all three of these major ventures and the impact they have had on his life and on world Jewry.

Rabbi Daniel Korobkin is senior Rabbi of Beth Avraham Yosef of Toronto. Rabbi Korobkin teaches a popular Moreh Nevukhim series on WebYeshiva, and he is the author of a new translation of the classic philosophic work The Kuzari: In Defense of the Despised Faith. In this episode we'll be chatting about his father, Leonard z”l who sadly passed away in April of 2021. This discussion is based on an interview Rabbi Korobkin did with his father in 2020, for Father's Day. His father had a very interesting career working as a lawyer for some of the biggest names in the music industry but what makes his story even more interesting is that he did this while maintaining a lifestyle as an Orthodox Jew.

Following the success of our Koren in the Wild episode with Nachliel Selevan, we took the streets once again! Rabbi Jeffrey Saks, editor-in-chief of the Toby Press' S.Y. Agnon Library, was kind enough to give us a private tour of Beit Agnon - The Agnon House in Jerusalem where he also serves as director. S.Y. Agnon, born Shmuel Yosef Czaczkes, was recognized as a prodigy at a young age in his hometown of Buczacz in Galicia (modern-day Western Ukraine). He left home as a young man to resettle in Jaffa in 1908 where he lived a secular life as a writer in pre-state Israel. In search of some "real-life experience," he relocated to Germany in 1912 where, in 1924 he lost his home and library to fire and he took this as a sign that it was time to return to the Holy land with his family, this time settling in Jerusalem where he became a central figure in Israel's blossoming literary scene. Agnon's stories and poems explore themes of a people at a crossroads between the old world and the new. His writing earned him Israel's first Nobel Prize (and only prize for literature) in 1966. We concluded our tour with Rabbi Saks by sitting down for a conversation in Agnon's study, surrounded by his collection of more than 9,000, to talk about Agnon's legacy as a writing, Zionist figure, and religious Jew. Rabbi Saks extolls the religious value of studying Agnon's works, and we made a fascinating discovery in amongst the many, many volumes on the shelves. ________________________________________________________________ Useful Links: https://korenpub.com/collections/the-agnon-library https://agnonhouse.org.il/english/ www.korenpub.com | | | Get 10% off your next order from www.korenpub.com with code PODCAST at checkout.

What an honor it was to have two of Israel's most inspiring leaders sit together to talk about their journies to Israel. Natan Sharansky needs no introduction, political dissent, and refusnik who became the symbol of the plight of so many trapped by a brutal, totalitarian, antisemitic regime. He spent years in Soviet prisons, most of it in solitary confinement, and never did he feel apart from the people and the land of Israel. He was released in 1986 and since then, has served the Jewish people and the Jewish state tirelessly. Rabbi Dr. Sharon Shalom was born in a small Jewish village in Northern Ethiopia and came to Israel as a refugee without his family, at around 8 years old. After serving as an officer in the Israel Defense Forces, he received semiha from Yeshivat Har Etzion and completed his doctorate in Jewish Philosophy at Bar-Ilan University. He now serves as the Rabbi of an Ashkenazi community, of mostly Holocaust survivors in Kiryat Gat where he lives with his Swiss-born wife Avital and their five children. Rav Sharon is an advocate for Jews of all backgrounds, colors, and ideologies. He is the author of the new book Dialogues of Love and Fear, available now from www.korenpub.com. As well as talking about their respective journies to Israel, we discussed the miracles that allowed for this recording to take place, our visions for the future of Israel, and, of course, the pandemic. We laughed, we learned, and we were moved. ________________________________________________________________ Useful Links: https://korenpub.com/products/dialogues-of-love-and-fear https://korenpub.com/collections/rabbi-dr-sharon-shalom www.korenpub.com | | | Get 10% off your next order from www.korenpub.com with code PODCAST at checkout.

Shmuel Yosef Agnon (1888-1970) was born in Buczacz, Eastern Galicia (now part of Ukraine). Yiddish was the language of his home, and Hebrew the language of the Bible and the Talmud which he studied formally until the age of nine. His knowledge of German literature came from his mother, and his love of the teachings of Maimonides and the Hassidim came from his father. In 1908 he left for Palestine, where, except for an extended stay in Germany from 1912 to 1924, he lived until his death. Agnon began writing stories when he was quite young. His first major publication, Hakhnasat Kalah (The Bridal Canopy), 1922, re-creates the golden age of Hassidism, and his apocalyptic novel, Oreach Nata Lalun (A Guest for the Night), 1939, depicts the ruin of Galicia after WWI. Much of Agnon’s other writing is set in Palestine. Israel’s early pioneers are portrayed in his epic Temol Shilshom (Only Yesterday), 1945, considered his greatest work, and in the surreal stories of Sefer Hamaasim (The Book of Deeds), 1932. Agnon also published work on the Jewish holy days Yamin Noraim (Days of Awe), 1938, on the giving of the Torah, Atem Reitem (Present at Sinai), 1959, and on the gathering of Hassidic lore, Sifreihem Shel Tzadikim (Books of the Righteous) and Sippurei HaBesht (Stories of the Baal Shem Tov), 1960-1961. Considered one of the greatest Hebrew writers, in 1966, Agnon was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature. Rabbi Jeffrey Saks is the Director of Research at the Agnon House in Jerusalem and served as the Series Editor of The S.Y. Agnon Library at The Toby Press, now complete in 15 volumes. He is the founding director of The Academy for Torah Initiatives and Directions in Jewish Education, in Jerusalem, and its WebYeshiva.org program. Rabbi Saks was recently appointed as Editor of Tradition, the premier journal of Orthodox Jewish thought published in English. After earning his BA, MA, and rabbinic degrees from Yeshiva University, Rabbi Saks moved to Israel and has served on the faculties of several high schools and yeshivot, edited several books, and published widely on Jewish thought, education, and literature. Rabbi Saks lives in Efrat with his wife Ilana Goldstein Saks and their four children. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

In this week's Podsha, I speak with Rachel Weber Leshaw, teacher at WebYeshiva and Torah V'Avodah and a graduate at the Yoetzet program, about how Judaism feels about making up lost chances, and how being humble is an essential Jewish trait.

In this episode we will speak with Melvin Marsh around how to help healing professionals work with the LGBTQ community in an honoring and consious way to help the world develop with compassion and kindness around sensitive matters that also blend with our day to day communities.   Melvin Marsh is a practicing hypnotherapist in Augusta, Georgia with particular interests in medical hypnosis, phobias, and anxiety. While attending medical school, hypnotherapy was suggested to him to deal with his own anxiety problem caused by a residual medical phobia. As hypnotherapy started to relieve the symptoms, he realized he could use hypnosis to help his future patients. Eventually, he realized he liked hypnotherapy more than biochemistry and left medical school to pursue studies at HMI College of Hypnotherapy where he graduated with honors. Melvin’s educational background includes a B.S. in Anthropology and Human Biology from Emory University, a M.S. in Space Studies (focus on aerospace psychology) from the University of North Dakota, and has completed many hours of study on Webyeshiva and is a licensed EMT. When Melvin is not seeing clients, he can be found playing with his dogs, watching bad vampire films, and cooking gourmet food. He also is an activist for transgender rights (he is ftm) and volunteers at his synagogue. He also enjoys harassing and embarrassing his partner and daughter. He can also sometimes be seen attempting to complete crazy things on his Bucket List and fighting off the cries of “Eat me” from the mountain of chocolate in his pantry.

Overcoming Adversity and Struggle with Afterhours Hypnotherapy ~ Melvin Marsh, C.Ht. Everyone has something in their life or about themselves that they want to change or something comes up and change is forced upon a person. Sometimes it is difficult and sometimes it is frightening, but the good news is that no matter what, from controlling anxiety to having medical procedures performed, you don't have to go through it alone.
