The Tefilah Podcast

My name is Rabbi Matt Schneeweiss, and this is the hub for all of my shiurim (classes) on Tefilah (Prayer) and related topics, such as Tehilim (Psalms) and Berachos (Blessings)! The shiurim I upload here are given in a variety of formats with different lengths and intended for different audiences. The common theme which unites all of these shiurim is our focus on strengthening our relationship with Hashem through Avodah she'ba'Lev (Service of the Heart). If you have any questions feel free to email me at rabbischneeweiss at gmail. Thanks for listening!

    Tehilim 23 REDUX: The Lord is My Shepherd (Part 3)

    Have any questions, insights, or feedback? Send me a text!Length: 58 minutesSynopsis: Tonight (11/13/24), in our Wednesday night Tehilim shiur, we successfully "landed the plane"! Last time we ran through the Radak to get the big picture and I shared the core of my theory. This time we read through him at a more deliberate pace and then brought it all together by asking a key question: When should this perek be said? The answer to that question unlocked the main idea and purpose of the perek...

    The Nature of Nusach (Liturgy) Part 1: How and Why Ezra Changed Tefilah

    Have any questions, insights, or feedback? Send me a text!Length: 46 minutesSynopsis: This morning (11/8/24), in our tefilah-focused Machshavah Lab series for women, we began a new topic: the nusach ha'tefilah (liturgy). We began by reviewing the relevant facts: what the mitzvah of tefilah from the Torah entailed, how Ezra and his Beis Din changed it, and the historical reasons why. I then presented my understanding of the REAL reasons why tefilah desperately needed this change, which I supp...

    Have any questions, insights, or feedback? Send me a text!Length: 26 minutesSynopsis: This morning (11/8/24), in the "Tefilah Reexamined" series of our Machshavah Lab for women, I decided to start with a review of the three models of tefilah we've learned in Parts 1-4, followed by a quick overview of my "go to" model of tefilah that has been the foundation of my approach to tefilah for years. This review is not intended as a substitute for the in-depth analysis we engaged in over the past co...

    Tehilim 23 REDUX: The Lord is My Shepherd (Part 2)

    Have any questions, insights, or feedback? Send me a text!Length: 58 minutesSynopsis: Tonight (11/6/24), in our Wednesday night Tehilim shiur, we quickly reviewed the perek and all the questions from last time. After exploring an approach from one of the shiur attendees, we learned the Radak's commentary which I attempted to elucidate with a little help from the Ibn Ezra. I believe I managed to get everything out on the table, but we'll need to mull it over and come back to it next week to s...

    Tehilim 23 REDUX: The Lord is My Shepherd (Part 1)

    Have any questions, insights, or feedback? Send me a text!Length: 58 minutesSynopsis: Tonight (10/30/24), in our Wednesday night Tehilim shiur, we began (re)learning what I believe is the most well-known psalm of them all. The last time I gave shiur on this was WAAAY back in November 2020, and I figured it was time to revisit it, especially now that I have new resources. We translated the perek on our own, then consulted four other translations. We theorized about the pivot point, then raise...

    Tehilim 24 REDUX: Sunday's Psalm (Shir Shel Yom Rishon b'Shabbos) (Part 4)

    Have any questions, insights, or feedback? Send me a text!Length: 57 minutesSynopsis: Tonight (9/25/24), in Wednesday night Tehilim shiur, our goal was "to land the plane" - to distill all of our insights and observations into a unified theory - and land the plane we did! Thanks to Sforno and R' Elia di Nola, we emerged with a powerful understanding of what it REALLY means to want Moshiach and gained clarity on what we're asking Hashem to do in this perek. We even managed to explain how this...

    Have any questions, insights, or feedback? Send me a text!Length: 1 hour 22 minutesSynopsis: This morning (9/20/24), in our NEW Machshavah Lab series for women called "Tefilah Reexamined," we began with a comprehensive review of Parts 1 and 2, then delved into the Ramban's critiques of the Rambam's stance on tefilah. After reading through the Ramban, we compared and contrasted his approach with the Rambam's, which - at this point - seem worlds apart. We concluded by reading the Rav's creativ...
