    Rosh Hashana 5781-A Mask-Free Relationship!

    What is the difference between teshuva mei'yira and teshuva mei'ahava and what does wearing a mask have anything to do with it?

    Parshas Nitzavim-Vayeilech- 3 big questions!

    If you look at the passukim (Devarim 31: 14-23) where Hashem invites Moshe and Yehoshua into the Tent of Meeting, you will see 3 big questions that jump out at me. One of which is "Why would G-D set up a system where the Torah is meant to bear witness against us?".

    Parshas Ki Savo-Why bring the 1st fruits for Bikkurim, why not the best fruits?

    Hashem commands us to bring the first ripe fruit as the mitzvah of Bikkurim, but why does He ask for the first ones as opposed to the best ones? Listen in to hear why!

  4. 06/18/2020

    Parshas Shelach- Why did Calev silence the people?

    What was it that Calev heard that made him realize that he needed to step in say something?

  5. 06/05/2020

    Parshas Naso- Why are the wagons called an offering?

    When the Nessiim offer the Korbanos they send it on wagons and the Torah tells us that the wagons were considered part of the offering. The obvious question is, why?

  6. 05/22/2020

    Parshas Bamidbar-Count what counts!

    The Ramban has an interesting explanation of what it means to "raise up Bnei Yisrael". At first glance it seems like he is in direct contract to Rashi's view. Listen in to hear how we can reconcile this seeming disagreement.

  7. 05/15/2020

    Parshas Behar-Why you can't charge interest to your BROTHER!

    The passukim that deals with this prohibition conveys much more than just not charging interest. Listen in to find out what else is going on here!

  8. 05/08/2020

    Parshas Emor- Why is it called the Omer?

    Isn't that a strange name for a korban? All of the other sacrifices give you some indication as to what the korban is about, but omer is just a Biblical measurement?!
