The Book of Jonah By Rabbi Avraham Arieh Trugman

Rabbi Avraham Arieh Trugman – Shares a thorough review of the book of Jonah and the path of teshuvah (repentance). A good story to learn about during the current period of time on the Jewish calendar we are in now (the three weeks between the 17th of Tammuz until the 9th of Av – which is the period culminating in the destruction of both Temples and many other destructive events in Jewish history).

Rabbi Yitzchak Breitowitz – Orwell’s 1984 and Korach’s Rebellion and Rabbi Avraham Arieh Trugman – The Book of Numbers – Parshat Korach

Both these videos focus on this week’s upcoming Torah parashah (in Eretz Yisroel) of Korach. They both explain the details of how after all the witnessed miracles and the level of righteousness of the people involved can an actual rebellion take place. The journey from that to this is almost unbelievable and the details involved that help make sense of this is quite interesting.

Seventy Faces – A Measure for Measure

Rabbi Avraham Arieh Trugman – Explains the concept of “measure for measure” or otherwise commonly known and cause and effect – that governs the law of nature. Rabbi Trugman shows us examples of some instances of this concept in our history and also how contemporary science views it today and how that was already laid out in the Torah. Fascinating explanation of the variance effect of pure cause and effect corresponding to the addition of mercy and grace to strict justice.

Seventy Faces – Dividing Words

Rabbi Trugman – Shares really interesting word re-arrangements from existing words in the Torah and Tanach. For example, one name for Pesach (Passover), which is coming up shortly, is “Chag Aviv” (Holiday of Spring). If you take the first letter of the word Aviv which is Alef (one) that represents Avraham, the second letter which is Beit (two) represents Yitzchak and Yaakov, the last two letters Yud and Beit (twelve) are the twelve tribes. This all is the start of the Jewish people which happened in the first month of Nissan in Egypt where we became a nation. Additionally, the same word Aviv can be divided the first two letters Aleph plus Beit or Av which means father and the last two letters Yud and Beit which means twelve equals the father of the 12 or the first of the twelve months of the Hebrew calendar which is again the first month of Nissan where the Jewish calendar started as a nation in Egypt. Many more neat examples in the video.

Eretz Yisroel Weekly Torah Portion

Fundamentals in Chassidut and Kabbalah – The Holiness of the Land of Israel – Part 2

Rabbi Trugman – Shares so many interesting items relating the the Makom (the place) meaning Eretz Yisroel and also how it relates to the weekly parasha. It contains a lot of deep chassidic thoughts that present such a fascinating approach to concepts that most take for granted. For example, the relatively small size of the State of Israel and the relatively small Jewish population and their outsized Worldy significance (~51 minutes).

Seventy Faces – Small Letters

Rabbi Trugman – Tells us the significance of the small letters in the Torah. For example, the little heh at the beginning and how it foretold that its appearance would be put into Avraham’s name in the future. Additionally, the little aleph which is at the beginning of Leviticus which occurs on Rosh Chodesh Nissan and the many allusions of why its little including that Moshe wrote it small as an act of humility (Hashem is humble and Moshe emulates Hashem). If you would like to learn more about the small letters in the Torah please watch Rabbi Trugman’s video (~35 minutes).
