All Who Pursue G-d Will Find Him (Parasha Massei) By Rabbi Yitzchak Breitowitz

Rabbi Yitzchak Breitowitz – In this week’s Torah portion, Rabbi Breitowitz shares how the 42 journeys the Jew experienced in the desert have many parallels to life’s own journeys. We can learn from those journeys to help our present day journeys both individually and collectively. Also lots of parallels to the current “Three Week” period of mourning culminating in Tisha B’Av in another nine days.

Rabbi Yitzchak Breitowitz – Shares answers in a very easy to understand way several questions that students ask about Jewish Law including: Why are there so many rules in Judaism?

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.

G-d Gave Away His Torah to His Partners in Creation

Rabbi Yitzchak Breitowitz – Interesting take on when did the Jewish people really receive the Torah and why it’s not necessarily accurate that we received it specifically on Shavuot like we typically celebrate. Most important however is how and why G-d gave us the Torah to help in forming the Laws instead of just telling us exactly what to do.

Rabbi Yitzchak Breitowitz – Double Feature 1

The Period of the Omer and Love Your Neighbor as Yourself – Rabbi Breitowitz shares how the current Omer counting period has both a positive and negative perspective. The positive is the joyous period between leaving slavery (Pesach) and receiving the Torah (Shavuot). The negative is 24,000 students of the great sage, Rabbi Akiva, dies during this period of time – which makes the Omer a time of mourning. The ultimate goal of this mourning is to rectify the character trait of not giving kavod to others (“love your neighbor as yourself”). Watch the video to get filled in on all the details in between.

Yom Ha’atzmaut from a Jewish Perspective

Rabbi Yitzchak Breitowitz – Shares a balanced approach about the modern State of Israel Independence’s holiday celebration and the various perspectives both positive and negative. The most important message of the lecture was the concept of gratitude and it’s very foundation in the Jewish people’s name (Yehudim). The focus on the glass being half full (positive orientation) results in a postive orientation reflected back on oneself.

Counting the Omer and Seeking Purpose

Rabbi Yitzchak Breitowitz – Shares about the Omer period of time that we are in between Pesach and Shavuot and explains some very interesting disagreements between Jews of the past and present on when actually to start counting the Omer. The Rabbi made some very clear distinctions about the difference between Shabbat and the Jewish Holidays and our relationship as Jews to each one (a fascinating discussion).
