Ep. 509: What Can We Do to Wake Up People Who Have Been Brainwashed by a False Narrative?

Listen Later

Rabbi Jacobson will discuss the following topics:
What does the 15th of Av teach us today?  

  • How does the cycle from destruction to rebuilding help us navigate the extremes in our times?  
  • Why is this day such a great holiday, comparable to Yom Kippur? 
  • How do we reconcile the great holiday of the 15th of Av with the rule that we must diminish in joy when the month of Av arrives? 
  • Why did we break the axes on this day, and not just put them away to be used the next year? 
  • I don’t see the Beis Hamikdash on Shabbos Chazon. What am I doing wrong? 
  • Who will build the Third Temple? 
    • How is this parsha connected to Moshiach? 
    • Why is the time before Moshiach called “ikvesa d’meshicha”? 
      • Should we be concerned that our lack of unity may negatively impact today’s events? 
      • What can we do to increase unity? 
      • How can we help steer Muslim fundamentalists to change course and live peacefully with their neighbors, as the Christians ultimately learned to do after centuries of aggression?  
      • Before Moshiach’s coming do we need to endure difficulties? 
      • What can we do to wake up people who have been brainwashed by a false alternative narrative? 
      • Can we use recent events – the recent plot to attack a popular music concert; Iran’s ludicrous accusations against Israel – to help bring clarity to those that have been indoctrinated? 
        • Why don’t you endorse a political party? Follow-up 
        • If Moshiach comes now will there still be a presidential election? 

          • What do we learn from Parshas Eikev? War in Israel Presidential Election
