Shiuring is Caring

Welcome back to Tanya is a ברייתא! This week, we take a look at the Alter Rebbe’s masterful evasion of taking sides in the dispute as to whether or not we’re commanded to believe in G-d, and how the evasion itself ties into his thesis about how we connect to G-d through doing miztvos.

(The intention of this series is to attempt to bring out the Alter Rebbe’s intention by doing a deep dive into his (oftentimes niglah’dike) sources. Enjoy the shiur!)

Welcome back to another shiur in Shir Hashirim of Likutei Torah! This week, we discuss the phrase “for your beloved is more goodly than wine”; what the pasuk is referring to with “wine”, and “your beloved”, and their contrast. So grab a Likutei Torah, sit back, and (know that the ultimate level to be achieved is a relationship with Hashem alone, and nothing else; but at the same time, in all of the ways we connect to him, there’s always something for us to) enjoy!

Welcome back to another shiur in Shir Hashirim of Likutei Torah! This week*, we discuss the contrast of the two levels of Hashem being a chassan, and how that relates to the divine revelation at different levels. So grab a Likutei Torah, sit back, and (appreciate that Hashem invested himself in the Torah that we learn down here in a way that we can actually) enjoy!

*Last week, I forgot to press upload on this shiur last week

Welcome back to Tanya is a ברייתא! This week, we take a look at the Alter Rebbe’s take on the prohibition of lustful thought, and it’s surprising implications in his overarching thesis regarding the definition of a Beinoni.

Welcome back to another shiur in Shir Hashirim of Likutei Torah! This week, we discuss what makes Shir Hashirim the song “of songs”, and how the bride and groom unite. So grab a Likutei Torah, sit back, and (consider how the only way to bridge the gap between the infinite and this distinctly self-centered world is in the same way that a song is formed, blending motifs and varying notes until, by the time it resolves, we’re left with something we can) enjoy!

Welcome back to Tanya is a ברייתא! This week, we take a look at the Alter Rebbe’s view on secular studies, as it’s discussed in his niglah’dike works, and how it ties into his (seemingly) novel approach in Tanya.

I was going through some old recordings, and I came across these shiurim. I figured I could upload some of them here. A classic Ma’amar, pristine in style, waiting to be pondered. Enjoy!

This episode, as well as any episodes that I upload that were recorded by Chabad of Bondi, should bring merit to the souls of Rabbi Eli Schlanger, as well as everyone else murdered al kidush hasheim at the Bondi Beach Massacre (see the episode description of the first episode of Baruch She’asa Nissim).

(Sorry that this is getting posted after vayigash.)

(I apologize that I don’t recall what joke I said before the shiur.)

(For anyone who’s an avid fan of the podcast, Tanya is a Braisa is l’choira not happening this week due to a lot of circumstances colliding. Likutei Torah shiur was my fresh shiur of the week.)
