A-Muse with Reb Ari Bensoussan

We continue learning the incredible intro to the Mesilat Yesharim and find out about good and evil and how it gets thrown into such confusion in our generation. Star Wars and Harry Potter play a big role in this one!

FINALLY!!!!!!! It is here, the Mesilat Yesharim Series. I have been so excited to teach Mesilat Yesharim and we have now committed ourselves to it. We explore the Hakdamah and begin to talk about the innocence of childhood and what we have forgotten from long ago. 

In this Pre Yom Kippur class we delve into the mysterious days leading up to it known as the "Ten Days Of Repentance" Or "Aseret Yimei Teshuva". Why is Yom Kippur only after Rosh Hashanah if logically it should be before? Why are we especially careful with what we eat in these ten days? And how does this all lead up to Yom Kippur? Join us in this fascinating journey. 

My apologies for the weak sounding audio. The better voice recorder died in the middle and this is what we have! But Baruch Hashem it was recorded because this one was a fascinating Shiur! We explore the depths on Judging ourselves and others and bring out an incredible lesson from the Tomer Devorah & Tefillah of Mussaf how to have a great judgment this year. K'tiva V'chatima Tovah to all.

Baruch Hashem We are back! After a long summer of traveling we have resumed our weekly classes. We jump in with both feet talking about our travels in Israel and beginning the deep process of introspective Yeshiva based on the teachings of the Tomer Devorah, Enjoy!

We finish off Sefer Bamidbar with an incredible look at killings and Weddings! Chazak Chazak V'Nitchazak!

We continue with Parshat Masei and learn about the places the Yidden traveled and the borders of the land of Israel. We begin to learn about killing b'shogeg as well. What is that ? Give a listen to find out !

We continue in Parshat Matot as we learn about the war with Midyan the death of Bilaam and the splitting of the land for the Shevatim of Reuven and Gad.. Outside of Israel!

In this weeks Parshah we begin discussing there concept of Nedarim (making vows) and how to nullify if need be. Then the minyanim are taking to account for that they did to the yidden with a war. 

We enter into the times of the Gaonim and Rishonim, the passion and sacrifice they have shown and how the world split into Ashkenaz and Sepahard. This one is jam-packed and well worth the listen, then listen again and again!
