Chayei Sarah - The Big Picture

What is the idea behind Hashem 'knowing the days of the whole ones?' Why do we find that when both Avraham and Sarah die, the Torah implies that their days were very full? What is their 'inheritance that lasts forever? What is the concept of the righteous knowing about their reward just before they pass on from this world? What are the 13 'rivers of persimmon' that were the 'reward' for the great Amora, R' Abahu? Why was he nervous that he would not have reward, and how was he calmed from his fears? Find out in this week's Parsha Podcast.

Vayera - Cataclysmic World Events

Why were the cities of Sodom and Amora being destroyed at the very same moment that Avraham and Sarah were about to miraculously conceive with Yitzchak, and also when the nations of Amon and Moav were founded? In the face of World changing cataclysmic events, why do some people fear their sins, and others fear in wait of their reward? What are the special characteristics of Avraham that made him worthy of being raised above the spiritual realms, and to be the 'king' of the world? How do these parallel the same traits that Chizkiyahu hamelech had and that we are enjoined to emulate as we enter the times of Moshiach? Find out in this week's Parsha Podcast.

Lech Lecha - Smashing Idols

What is the significance of the relationship between Avraham and his brother Haran, who dies? Why does this relationship manifest in the marriage of Avraham to Haran's daugther Sarah-Yiscah? Why does this also lend itself to Haran's son, Lot, accompanying him in his travels? What is the concept of idolatry, and how does it manifest today? What was Avraham trying to prove in his conversation with Nimrod, as he expressed the way different elements of nature are superior to others? Why does the argument end when Avraham expresses the superior nature of man? Why does Avraham experience the miracle of being thrown in the fiery furnace and survive, yet Haran, his brother, dies as a result? Why was Haran only affected by the fire on his innards, and his body remained unscathed? Find out in this week's Parsha Podcast.

Noach - Planting a Righteous World

What is the significance of Noach as the tzadik who lived through three different ages of spiritual challenge? What is the idea behind Noach being 'uprooted' and then 'planted' in the Teiva-Ark that he built? Why were his sons all born after he was 500 years old, and less than 100 years before the flood? What is the idea behind the fact that Jews, and possibly also non-Jews, will live forever once Moshiach comes? If so, how can there be someone who 'dies young' at the age of 100? What is the parallel between the age of 100 and the age of 20? Find out in this week's Parsha Podcast.

Succos - Gog Umagog Brings Order

Why is the war of Gog Umagog (Armageddon) associated with the holiday of Succos, such that we read to Haftaros from sections in Tanach that speak of it? Why do the Romans and Persians claim that they helped the Jewish people in their exile, when in truth they only helped themselves? Why do they get the mitzvah of Succah and then kick it as they leave because of the heat? What is the idea of the Clouds of Hashem's Glory which accompanied us in the wilderness, and will protect us in the future time of Moshiach? Why is the idea of the Simchas Beis Hasho'eva (rejoicing in the water drawing) a central theme of Succos, and how does it relate to the future time when men and women are in separate groups as they mourn for the death of Moshiach ben Yosef? Find out in this week's Parsha Podcast.

Yom Kippur - Pray For Israel

What was the content of the special prayer of the High Priest on the holiest of days in the holiest place on Earth? What is the concept of bracha-blessing? What was unique about the approach of Moshe generally and how did this contribute to his ability to give the blessings he gave to the entire Jewish people? Why is the blessing specifically given at the end of his life, and why do we seek these blessings as we complete a year and begin a new year? How can we merit a good year for ourselves and for all of the people of Israel? Find out in this week's Parsha Podcast.

Haazinu-Rosh Hashana - Reaching to the Heavens

Why does Moshe speak to the Heavens before the Earth, as if to say he is closer to the upper spheres? Why does it seem that Moshe has reversed the order, where the Heaven is supposed to be for Hashem while the Earth is meant for mankind? Why does Moshe demand of the Heaven to listen if that would seem to stop it from saying Hashem's praises? What is the idea of the mouth, heart and ears of the Heavens? How does the Shofar serve to encourage Hashem to stand up from His throne of judgment and sit, instead, on His throne of Divine Mercy? What is the idea of the Shofar in relationship to the root Sh-F-R which denotes beautification? How does the narrow end of the Shofar denote judgment and the wide end denote mercy? Find out in this week's Parsha Podcast.

Nitsavim-Vayelech - Israel's Unstoppable Goal

Why is a significant portion of this week's parsha referred to as the 'parsha of redemption?' Why is the central theme of the 'parsha of redemption' the theme of Teshuva-repentance, which is followed by the return of the Jewish people to Israel? What are the steps to teshuva, how does it start, and does one do it completely? What is the central reason why the 'lazy man' referred to by Shlomo Hamelech gives so many excuses not to hear the Torah teaching of his teacher? What is the central and simple theme that Moshe teaches us as the antidote for this 'laziness?' Find out in this week's Parsha Podcast.
