!Short Clips! Living With The Times – Current Situation in Israel – An Archetypal Struggle

Rabbi Avraham Arieh Trugman – The struggle between Yaakov and Esav in this week’s upcoming parasha (Vayishlach) is a struggle that has been going on throughout the ages including now in recent times. Rabbi Trugman explains the very interesting gematria that Yaakov + Satan = Yisroel. Yaakov (Jacob) plus the Satan (the guardian angel of Esav that Yaakov wrestled with) equals Yisroel (the name the angel in this wrestling event that Yaakov won and subsequently the name Hashem gave later on in the narrative).

The Mysterious Eliyahu – Parshas Devarim (Rabbi Dovid Kaplan) (Weekly Parsha)

Rabbi David Kaplan – Shares interesting aspects of this past Shabbat’s weekly parasha. One of the interesting ideas is why do our Sages say that while Moshe Rabeinu was 10 amot tall and Pharaoh was 1 amot tall. The example he gives is his experience meeting celebrities who were “larger than life” but in person they were very small. Similarly, Pharaoh was the leader the most important country in the World at this time but was very small, while Moshe Rabeinu was the humblest person to ever walk the Earth but was large in stature.

Dialogue Die Along (Rabbi Dovid Kaplan) (Weekly Parsha – Balak)

Multi Video Feature – Shabbat Shalom – Parashat Balak

Three good videos for Shabbat by Rabbi Yitzchak Breitowitz, Rabbi Dovid Kaplan, and Rabbi Avraham Trugman. Rabbi Breitowitz talks about Bilaam who wanted to curse the Jews but ended up blessing them against his will. Rabbi Kaplan talks about Bilaam showing us the negative of not having the ability to overcome our desire for pleasure when lasting happiness ironically has nothing to do with pleasure. And, Rabbi Trugman speak about Bilaam’s innate ability in finding the right specific moment in time to curse.

The Paradox (Rabbi Dovid Kaplan) (Weekly Parsha – Chukas)

Rabbi David Kaplan – Shares about the upcoming weekly parasha (Chukas) – some interesting tidbits including:

The story of Dovid Hamelech (King David) and how he tried to protect himself from the Angel of Death by learning Torah and where it’s alluded to in this parasha.

Keeping our eyes on the long term benefits of doing the right thing and living the right way. Being mocked for being religious Jews but a life of meaning shines through over time.

Not everything in life has to be understood.

Shlomo Hamelech (King Solomon) and Moshe Rabeinu and their lack of understand and understanding of the Red Cow mitzvah expressed in a pasek. Pasek Yud Zion (840 9 lines from bottom) – take from the tamei person the ashes of the chatat – first letter of word latamei, and subsequent words spells limoshe jumble letters it spells shlomo.

Also, two different ways to purify oneself – mikva full immersion otherwise is doesn’t take vs. red cow water only a drop that nicks your ear makes you pure. Represents full change versus a bit at a time – different types of teshuva.

Effort in Torah yields results. Dedicated.
