    The Elul Series by Rav Yitzchak Berkovits - Ep. 22 l Sukkos- Divine Protection.

    In this thought-provoking lecture, we delve into the spiritual significance of the Jewish holidays, focusing on Sukkot, a time of divine protection and joy. Discover how Rosh Hashana marks the creation of human life, Yom Kippur the restoration of the Torah and forgiveness, and Sukkot the celebration of Hashem’s protection through the Ananei Hakavod—the Clouds of Glory. 🔹 What is Sukkot really about? This holiday reminds us of the 40 years in the wilderness, where Hashem provided divine protection to the Jewish people. Through a dispute in the Gemara, we explore whether the protection came from actual huts or the mystical clouds of glory, as ruled by the Shulchan Aruch. 🔹 The Significance of Teshuva and the Mishkan: After the sin of the golden calf and the breaking of the Luchos, Moshe Rabbeinu’s prayers and Teshuva led to the return of these clouds and the beginning of the Mishkan's construction. Sukkot embodies the essence of Teshuva—finding shelter and trust in Hashem's protection, even within the humble walls of a Sukkah. 🔹 Bitachon and the Power of Divine Protection: As we move out of our homes and into the Sukkah, we embrace the temporary structure's spiritual security. Hashem’s protection, represented by the flimsy Schach, encourages us to let go of material defenses and rely on His divine care, strengthening our Bitachon (trust). Join us as we explore these profound themes, offering insight into the deeper meaning of Sukkot and how we can connect to Hashem’s divine protection and love through Teshuva, the four species, and the celebration of Z'man Simchateinu—our time of joy. 📜 Key Topics: The creation and renewal of life on Rosh Hashana The significance of Yom Kippur and regaining the Torah What really happened on Sukkot? The mystery of the Ananei Hakavod The power of Teshuva and building the Mishkan Trusting in Hashem’s divine protection during Sukkot 🔔 Don't forget to subscribe for more insightful Torah lessons! #Sukkot #YomKippur #RoshHashana #JewishHolidays #TorahLessons #AnaneiHakavod #Teshuva #Bitachon #ZmanSimchateinu #DivineProtection #JewishWisdom

    06/10/2024

    The Elul Series by Rav Yitzchak Berkovits - Ep. 15 l Tzom Gedaliah: Don’t Be Naive.

    The day after Rosh Hashana is Tzom Gedaliah, a fast day that can feel like a letdown for many. In this video, we explore the significance of Tzom Gedaliah, often overshadowed by its proximity to Rosh Hashana and Yom Kippur. Although it is one of the four fast days commemorating the destruction of the Beis Hamikdash (the Holy Temple), Tzom Gedaliah carries a unique lesson. We delve into the story of Gedaliah Ben Achikam, his tragic assassination, and the critical message it holds for us about vigilance, responsibility, and the dangers of naivety — even for the righteous. As we reflect on the laws of Lashon Hara (slander) and the importance of realistic growth, this video sets the stage for a deeper understanding of Teshuva (repentance) as we prepare for Yom Kippur.
