In this week’s episode, we look at one of the deepest expressions of the Human Soul - man’s quest for cohesive narrative.  What part of human behavior do we see this from? What can we learn from this? Where is this phenomenon properly explained in Torah? What is the ultimate potential of this phenomenon?

  This week’s episode is dedicated by Ben and Talia Silver in honor and for the merit for the safety of all the IDF soldiers.

  In this episode we look at the deep dualism of Rosh HaShana. On one hand it is a chag, on the other hand it is a time of Divine Justice. How does this connect to the fact that Rosh HaShana is the day Man was created. 

  We also look at some of Daniel Kahneman’s ideas about the nature of Human thought process. When is a phenomenon an expression of the soul? How should this affect how we perceive it? 

  This week’s episode is dedicated by יגאל יצחק בן גיל as a merit for his grandmother שרה בת עזרא on the occasion of her 17th Yahrtzeit which is on Rosh HaShana. It should also be a זכות for יגאל יצחק בן גיל וברכה יטא בת ישראל משה for health, Hatzlacha in all matters and to have a שנה טובה ומתוקה

   In this episode, we look at one of the most puzzling stories of Bayis Shani, the story of Sukkos. The possuk seems to imply that this was the first time they kept Sukkos since Yehoshua. How do we understand this?

  We also look at the basic dynamics of the times of Moshiach. How does the dynamic between Israel and the other nations change? And similarly we discuss the Ingathering of the Exiles.

   In this week’s episode, we start by revisiting the Kinos and the difficulty they pose. Is there a way to turn the Kinos into a normal davening experience? We take another look at why we try to relate to the Churban in this complicated fashion. 

  We look carefully at the Bayis Shani era and how to understand the narrative. How do the possukim describe the Rosh HaShana or Ezra and Nechemia? What was causing the people to cry so much?

  In this week’s episode, we take a closer look at why people from the Yeshiva world have significant problems relating to the issues of Moshiach. How much of this issue is clearly discussed in Shas? Where in fact is this issue discussed?

  We also examine the question of is there any reason to think the structure of Bayis Shlishi should be similar to Bayis Shani?  And we also discuss  the structure of Bayis Shani, and why Bayis Shani had this exact structure.

  In this episode, we take a careful look at how the Halacha looks at ultimate loss based on Hilchos Availus. We also look at how people generally speaking react to this situation. And similarly, we discuss how this should affect how we relate to The Bais HaMikdash and Moshiach. 

  We also start looking at the basic structure of Moshiach based on the parallelisms in Tanach. What are the basic parallelisms and what is the first key structural phenomena of Moshaich?

  In this episode, we look at one of the key issues we have relating to the Moshiach issues, grasping the National Level situation. Where do people have a greater level of understanding the lack of the Jewish People’s national status, in the USA or in Israel? Why is this true? How does this relate to understanding the importance of Moshiach? 

  We also examine the phenomenon of why people tend to drift to very superficial understandings of many important ideas.

  In this episode, we look at the basic challenge we have in understanding and relating to what the concept of Moshiach really means. One of the key concepts we have to understand is what does Shchina and Prophecy mean. Why don’t we aspire to that lofty goal? Is this a mistake? 

  We also discuss the issue of when it is proper for a person to take on lofty spiritual acts.
