    Parashat Behalotcha 5786 | The Illusion of Desire

    The Torah portion of Behalotcha presents a 'slice of life' of the Children of Israel in the Wilderness. It opens with the inspiring scene of Aaron lighting the flames of the golden menorah at G-d's command, literally 'be'halotcha,' causing the lights to rise straight up. In this week's Jerusalem Lights podcast, Jim Long and Rabbi Chaim Richman share their thoughts on lessons learned from some of the portion's diverse themes: the sounding of the silver trumpets, the journeying forth of the Ark of the Covenant, the complainers, and the inscrutable prophecy of Eldad and Meidad, who foresaw the epic end-time battle of Gog and Magog, the final death throes of evil before the Final Redemption. _________Rabbi Chaim Richman Jerusalem Lights | Torah for Everyone Join our new WhatsApp channel! https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029VbDN...Rabbi Chaim Richman's 'Jerusalem Lights', a non-profit educational organization, shares the wisdom of Torah teachings with all sincere spiritual seekers, emphasizing the ennoblement of the human spirit, the brotherhood of mankind, and the nurturing and development of each individual’s personal faith and relationship with the Creator.

    Lag B'Omer Insights: Moshe, Rabbi Akiva and Rabbi Shimon

    This week Israel observed the 'minor' holiday of Lag B'Omer - the 33rd day of the Counting of the Omer. What is the story behind this day? Jim Long and Rabbi Chaim Richman reflect on the history of the great sage Rabbi Akiva and his student Rabbi Shimon bar Yochai, who rebelled against Roman occupation of the Land of Israel, and is credited with authoring the Zohar. What is the role of a 'tzaddik,' an exceptionally righteous person, in Torah thought? And why is it customary to pray at the tombs of the righteous? Our hosts engage in a fascinating conversation that conveys many lessons about venerating the righteous, and the power of prayer._________Rabbi Chaim Richman Jerusalem Lights | Torah for Everyone Join our new WhatsApp channel! https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029VbDN...Rabbi Chaim Richman's 'Jerusalem Lights', a non-profit educational organization, shares the wisdom of Torah teachings with all sincere spiritual seekers, emphasizing the ennoblement of the human spirit, the brotherhood of mankind, and the nurturing and development of each individual’s personal faith and relationship with the Creator.
