    Building and Destroying Worlds: The Ability to Start Over Again

    This week's Torah portion of Pekudei witnesses the completion of the desert Tabernacle, whose chief artisan was Betzalel. The sages teach that Betzalel - whose name literally means 'in the shadow of God' - possessed a unique wisdom: "He knew how to combine the letters with which heaven and earth were created.' What does that mean? In this week's Jerusalem Lights Podcast, Jim Long returns to join Rabbi Richman in Jerusalem, for a rousing episode that focuses on spiritual energy, science...and the amazing parallels between the seven-day inauguration of the Tabernacle, and the creation of the world.

    The Heart of the Matter

    What is the secret of the sages' enigmatic teaching that the Golden Calf 'emerged from the fire' on its own? What happens when people develop a dependency on the gods of their own creation -- a spiritual addiction -- only to become enslaved to the idol, which turns on its maker, with a 'life' of its own? In this week's Jerusalem Lights podcast, Jim Long and Rabbi Chaim Richman talk about the danger of worshipping a person, of putting G-d in a box, and of becoming dependent on anything but G-d.

    The Power of the Priestly Garments

    This week's Torah portion of Tetzaveh introduces us to the world of the kohanim, the priestly descendants of Aaron, and their garments of glory. Nowhere else does Torah give such elaborate detailed instructions, as it does for the making of these holy garments. In this week's Jerusalem Lights podcast, Jim Long and Rabbi Chaim Richman ponder G-d's eternal covenant with the kohanim which is literally part of their DNA. Our hosts discuss the deep significance of the Priestly garments…not just a decorative uniform, but an expression of Divine love.

    Making Room For God in Our Everyday Lives (Audio Only)

    In this week's Jerusalem Lights podcast, Rabbi Chaim Richman is joined by his wife Rena for an inspiring discussion focusing on this week's Torah portion of Terumah, and the centrality and importance of the Holy Temple in our everyday lives...a microcosm of creation; a place of revelation; but yet a place of subtle, ever-present miracles that testify to God's constant present in our everyday lives. Jim Long was feeling a bit under the weather this week and with Hashem's help he will be back next week...and we are also looking forward to more podcasts in the future with Rabbanit Rena, in our usual video format!

    The Path From Sinai To Everyday Life

    Are we 'tied to the law,' or are we liberated by the law? This week's Torah portion of parashat Mishpatim (Ordinances) is filled with commandments governing civil and societal interactions -- property damages, loans, servants, judicial conduct. At first glance, these seem dry compared to the dramatic spiritual events of the Exodus and the Giving of the Torah. But a deeper look reveals that these laws are Divine expressions of justice infused with mercy and compassion. In this week's Jerusalem Lights podcast, Rabbi Richman and Yours Truly, contemplate how even the seemingly technical laws in this parasha contain deep ethical, spiritual and mystical dimensions.

    The Revolution of the Sinai Revelation

    Every soul, both Jewish and non-Jewish, heard God's voice at Mount Sinai. The Sinai Revelation was an event that validated creation and demonstrated God's profound love for this world and His resolute belief in man. The Giving of the Torah was an event that transcends time and continues to take place every day. In this week's Jerusalem Lights podcast, Rabbi Richman and co-host Jim Long focus on the Torah portion of Yitro and the Sinai Revelation, discussing its effect on the spacetime continuum forever changing the world, and bringing hope and redemption to all humanity.
