Judaism From Within

In this week’s discussion, Rav Hirsch delves in to the Korban Tamid, brought twice daily, and shows us how the type of animal, as well as its frequency, brings us life lessons that can inspire us today in our prayers. Enjoy

In this week's discussion, Rav Hirsch looks at things from a slightly different viewpoint than we are used to. We delve in to the 3 locations where Balak asked Bilaam to curse the camp of Israel and what insights these places give to his motivations and how he tried to vanquish the power of Klal Yisrael. We also learn how the nation of Israel withstood these attacks and what makes us truly a people of G-d. Enjoy
Gods and Perspectives

This week, we will discuss Korach from the viewpoint of Rav Hirsch’s torah insight. What were Korach’s motivations and how did he put them in to practice? In what detail of reasoning was he mistaken and how did Moshe react accordingly? Explore these questions and more in this weeks lecture. Good Shabbos.

This week's parsha discusses the Meraglim. But Rav Hirsch focuses on the rules of additions to Korbonos brought before G-d, described after the sin of the Meraglim. In a fascinating discourse, we see how the Nesachim are directly connected to the level the nation of Israel were at and lessons they had to learn. The amount of wine, and the way it is brought, show us how the laws in the Temple are correlated to fundamental lessons we can learn. Enjoy
Libations of Dependance

In this week’s Sedra we deal with a perplexing situation – Miriam and Aaron speaking about Moses in a derogatory way. How Rav Hirsch understands this occurrence and how he sheds light on a particularly beautiful message it give us shows us once again, that every nuance in the Torah has valuable lessons for us to learn. Enjoy 

This weeks discussion is very loosely connected to this weeks parasha. Last year I went through Parashat Barmidbar and the positions of the tribes, pointing out their significance. This week I’ll be doing something different, with a focus on education.

This week’s Parsha once again displays Rav Hirsch’s awe- inspiring way of finding true Torah inspiration from the Laws of the Parsha. This week discusses the Erchin Vow – donating the Torah-given value of a person’s gender and age, to the Beis Hamikdash(Temple). Let’s discuss the values in depth and find a beautiful lesson that will accompany with us in our daily life.
Mission of the Soul, in Numbers

For this week's discussion, we will learn a stirring lesson on what it means for a Jew to be free. Why do we count 50 days of Sefirah? Why the phrase "7 full weeks"? And how does Rav Hirsh connect the Sefiras Ha'omer to both Shabbos and Milah? Find out this week. Enjoy, good Shabbos.
Counting up to Infinite Freedom

This week we are going to discuss the element of "Kedoshim" or moral perfection, as Rav Hirsh explains it. We see that as Jews, our goal is to attain the highest level of morality with the tools G-d has given us. Hope you enjoy, good Shabbos

In this discussion, we discover some illuminating and truly groundbreaking concepts about how the Torah views some, nowadays, quite controversial issues. We see the truly amazing approach it has on Women, Brit Milah and our outlook on the physical world. Enjoy
