This week’s drash dives into one of the most misunderstood and mystical topics in the Torah: Tzara’at and the laws of purity. We begin with the woman who gives seed in Parshat Tazria, a symbol of potential and new beginnings—yet what follows is a journey through impurity, quarantine, and ultimately, reintegration and healing.What does it mean to be spiritually impure? Why must the kohen, not a doctor or rabbi, be the one to declare a person clean? And what does Yeshua’s instruction to healed lepers to go show themselves to the priests reveal about his faithfulness to Torah—and his identity?We also explore the root causes of lashon hara (evil speech), how negativity can spread like impurity, and what Psalm 1 teaches us about guarding our minds and mouths. You’ll hear insights about spiritual mood management, the sacred power of speech, and even a Torah-based morning meditation to fill your heart with goodness before facing the world.You’ll leave this drash with a deeper understanding of how Torah calls us to inner purity, emotional self-awareness, and the daily work of transformation.

Our latest drash on Parshat Tazria-Metzora dives deep into the connection between lashon hara (evil speech) and the inner state of our hearts. Why do we sometimes speak negatively about others? What can isolation, reflection, and Divine love teach us about transforming our speech?This week’s teaching reflects on how the Torah’s laws of tzara’at (commonly translated as leprosy) offer us more than just ancient rituals—they invite us into self-awareness and healing. Through stories, Psalms, the teachings of Chofetz Chaim, and the words of Yeshua, we explore how our insecurities can be the root of gossip—and how filling our hearts with love, goodness, and Hashem’s presence can radically shift what overflows from our lips.We also share a powerful morning meditation practice that can help cleanse not just the tongue, but the soul.Watch the full drash now and take a step toward becoming someone whose words bring healing, not harm: https://youtu.be/Y-eqHR_EZLM

Would you believe the Talmud refers to the Messiah as “The Leper”?Yes—the Sages of Israel, after weighing several opinions on what the Messiah’s name would be, gave a surprising verdict:“His name is The Leper, as it is written: ‘Surely our sicknesses he himself bore...’” (Sanhedrin 98b)But why would they use such a painful and repulsive term to describe the Redeemer of Israel?In this week’s Torah portion, Metzora, we explore the deep connection between the affliction of leprosy and the soul of Messiah. Through rabbinic sources, Chasidic insight, and a surprising link to Yeshua, we uncover:🔎 Why “The Leper” is a profound title—not a derogatory one🔎 How the Messiah suffers in exile alongside Israel🔎 Why he waits at the gates of Rome among the sick and cast out🔎 And how his healing will one day reveal his gloryLeviticus 14:2 says, “This shall be the law of the leper in the day of his cleansing…”This verse isn’t just about skin disease. It may be a prophetic whisper of the coming redemption.

In this week’s Torah portion, Tazria, a subtle shift in verb tense—barely noticeable unless you're reading in Hebrew—unlocks layer upon layer of messianic meaning. According to Rabbi Chayim ben Attar (the Or HaChayim), the very first verse of the parsha doesn’t just speak of an ordinary birth. It hints at the conception and coming of the Messiah himself.⚠️ Why does the Torah say “she will conceive and she gave birth to a male”—mixing future and past tense?⚠️ Why does it use the unusual word tazria instead of the normal Hebrew word for conception?⚠️ And why does the verse speak of the son’s birth as if it’s already happened?These “mistakes” may not be mistakes at all… but intentional breadcrumbs pointing to a profound truth.👉 Watch the full drash here to uncover the prophetic secrets hidden in Leviticus 12:2.Prepare to see the Torah—and the Messiah—in a whole new light.

This week’s drash brought us deep into the heart of Torah, exploring the mystery and beauty of the eighth day—yom ha’shmini—a day that transcends time, nature, and ordinary holiness. It’s the day the Shekhinah came down, and the fire of Hashem consumed the offerings on the altar, revealing His glory to all the people.What does the number eight mean in our tradition? From the Brit Milah to the Beatitudes, from the Temple’s service to Yeshua’s resurrection, the “eighth” represents divine revelation, eternity, and closeness to Hashem. It’s the world beyond creation—the world to come—breaking into our own.We also reflected on what it means to be pure in heart, as Yeshua said, “Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.” This isn’t just a poetic idea. It’s an invitation—to self-examine, to shed judgment, worry, or negativity, and to draw nearer to the presence of the Almighty.Another powerful insight arose from the pouring of blood at the base of the altar—not at the top. Why? Because holiness begins with humility. The base is where fire begins. It's also where brokenness can be transformed.In this drash, you’ll also hear heartfelt insights from our community about sacrifice, fire, mourning, purity, and God’s call to live with sober clarity and spiritual discipline.

Dive deep into the Torah portion of Shemini, where we explore the often-misunderstood topic of kosher laws and their significance in both Jewish tradition and the teachings of Yeshua. Contrary to common belief, Yeshua did not abolish these laws; instead, he lived by them. This video elucidates how all creatures deemed kosher share specific characteristics and how these dietary laws foster a unique connection between the faithful and the Divine. We tackle misconceptions, particularly the misinterpretation of Mark 7:19 and Acts 10, shedding light on the continued relevance of kosher practices. Furthermore, we explore intriguing rabbinic discussions on the symbolic representation of the pig in Jewish eschatology and its relation to the Messianic era. Discover the profound spiritual implications of keeping kosher and how it aligns with the Messiah's example, emphasizing that the path to holiness is paved with obedience and reverence. Join us to unravel the timeless truth that the dietary laws, far from being obsolete, are an integral part of a holy life, as affirmed by both ancient wisdom and the promise of a renewed world.
