Huge zechus to learn with the Skokie Chevra again. The chevra there is mamesh on fire. Thank you for the opportunity to learn together!
Many people can run a “perfect” Seder—and miss the point of Pesach completely. The food is right, the Haggadah is read, the divrei Torah are flowing… but the one thing that actually matters never shows up. Pesach is not just about telling a story. It’s about building Emunah.
From Rosh Chodesh Nissan through the last bite of matzah, every step is engineered to shift a person from knowing about Hashem to actually seeing Him in their life. If that doesn’t happen, you didn’t actually leave Mitzrayim—you just read some history.
We break down why the Haggadah barely tells the story, why “kol hamarbeh” has no ceiling, and why even the greatest chachamim have to keep returning to this avodah. Emunah isn’t another mitzvah—it’s the operating system. Without it, everything else glitches. With it, everything comes alive. Through the framework of Pesach, Matzah, and Maror, we map two core soul types—the calm and the tortured—and show how both are held together by one thing: matzah, the “bread of Emunah.”
Pesach is an Emunah reset. You can clean every crumb, say every word, and still miss the point. Or—you can walk out of Pesach seeing Hashem more clearly than you did before. That’s geulah. That’s the avodah. Everything else is just prep.

Who is a Gibor?
One who conquers their nature (Avos 4:1)
Chametz isn’t just another issur. It’s total war. Not reduced. Not managed. Not “a little is fine.” Eradicated. Even a crumb. Even a mashahu. Why? Because chametz isn’t bread — it’s a system of inflated desire. And the Torah is telling you: some forces you don’t negotiate with. You remove them completely or they own you.
Look at the דור המדבר. They had מן — food with no noise, no additives, no psychological hooks. Pure nourishment. Pure kedushah. And what did they say? “Give us meat.” Not because they were hungry — because they wanted to want. They craved craving. That’s chametz: desire feeding on itself, expanding, inflating, never satisfied. The מן quieted desire. The slav amplified it.
Matzah is that same reset. No puff. No expansion. No extra. Just what is. A clean break from the loop. Even Shabbos food carries a taste of מן — nourishment without the hooks that drag you deeper into physicality. All week, food fuels the body but pulls the heart with it. On Pesach, matzah cuts the strings. For a moment, you’re not chasing. You’re not inflating. You’re just free.
And that’s why chametz has to go. Not trimmed — burned. Because if you don’t break the cycle, the cycle breaks you.

Who is a Gibor?
One who conquers their nature (Avos 4:1)
The world is obsessed with maxxing.
Looksmaxxing. Moneymaxxing. Statusmaxxing. Everything is about results, outcomes, optimization — squeezing life until something impressive comes out of it. And that mindset has crept into our world too. Even avodas Hashem becomes a performance: how much, how fast, how visible. But a life built only on results is a life that never actually lives.
On the other side, the eastern idea of cultivation says be present, refine yourself, and work the soil of the moment. No obsession with outcome — just steady becoming. And Torah stands right in the middle. Not blind optimization. Not passive drifting. But directed growth with purpose — פעולה עם נשמה.
Pesach is where this becomes real. Before geulah, there is teshuvah — not surface-level cleanup, but admitting how often we let the ra run the system. The process begins with something strange: bringing the seh, the lamb — the Egyptian god — into your home. You don’t run from it. You confront it. You live with it. And then you slaughter it.
And then comes chametz.
Chametz is not just crumbs. It is taavah — desire, expansion, the part of you that wants more, pushes more, consumes more. For seven days, you remove it completely. But then what? You go back to it. Bread returns. Life returns.
So the real avodah is not just removing chametz. It’s learning how to return to it without being owned by it. Because if you don’t transform your relationship with chametz, you will leave Pesach clean — and walk right back into the same chains. Pesach is not escape. It’s training.
Leave Mitzrayim.
And learn how to live free.

Who is a Gibor?
One who conquers their nature (Avos 4:1)
Bedikas Chametz is for the places we never check. The machshavos ra’os, the dark thoughts and inner patterns that hide so well we convince ourselves they aren’t there. A person can seem clean to the world and still carry hidden chametz inside. Even great people can miss it, because the most dangerous things are the ones that live out of sight — and especially the ones we hide from ourselves.
This is the work of Chovos HaLevavos — the duties of the heart, the most essential avodah and the most neglected. Pesach is the moment a Jew stops living with a galus mentality, stops tolerating the quiet chains that bind him, and begins clearing them out one by one. The candle is small, the night is quiet, but the mission is enormous: find the hidden chametz, burn it, and walk into freedom.

Who is a Gibor?
One who conquers their nature (Avos 4:1)
Pesach doesn’t begin with matzah. It begins in the dark — with a candle in your hand. Bedikas Chametz teaches us that the crumbs on the counter are the easy part. The real work is searching the cracks and crevices, the hidden corners where chametz settles unnoticed. And the same is true inside a person. The obvious flaws are not the danger. The danger is the ra that hides quietly in the heart, never confronted, never illuminated.
But the candle you use to search the house is not enough to search the soul. To find the chametz inside, you need a deeper light — an אֵשׁ קֹדֶשׁ. Torah gives the light, but the work requires courage: to shine that light into the places you would rather not look. Because if you search honestly, סופו שימצאנה — in the end, you will find it. And that is the beginning of real freedom. Pesach is not just the story of leaving Mitzrayim. It is the night a Yid takes a candle, turns inward, and begins burning away the darkness within.

Who is a Gibor?
One who conquers their nature (Avos 4:1)
Before Pesach even begins, the Torah hands us a unique assignment: Bedikas Chametz. A search. In the dark. With a candle. Because before geulah can begin, a Yid has to go looking.
Chametz is not just crumbs in the cabinet. It is the roots of ra hiding in the heart. Some of it is obvious—the man who denies Hashem, the rich ingrate who crowns himself god. But the more dangerous chametz is the quiet kind. The buried root. The darkness that never surfaced because life never pressed hard enough to reveal it. Even a good man — even a tzadik — can carry hidden rot if he never goes looking for it. Pesach begins with a warning: what you don’t search for will stay.
Bedikas Chametz teaches a brutal truth. Evil rarely announces itself. It hides in corners, under floorboards, behind habits we call “normal.” The avodah is not just to remove what is obvious—it is to hunt the subtle poison before it spreads. The candle is small, the night is quiet, and the work is personal.
Tonight we began the search. Tomorrow, we go deeper.

Who is a Gibor?
One who conquers their nature (Avos 4:1)
Pesach is not nostalgia. It is survival training. The makkos and the entire story of Yetziyas Mitzrayim were burned into Jewish life because without them, nothing holds. A Yid can have Torah, routines, even success — but if the foundation of emunah is weak, the whole structure cracks the moment life pushes back. And most of us walk around pretending there are other ways to live. We think we can manage outcomes, control our story, engineer our own safety. That illusion doesn’t make life better — it traps us in what we call the misery comfort zone: the quiet dread we get used to carrying because we believe everything depends on us.
Emunah and bitachon smash that prison. They recalibrate the soul. When you remember that the same Hand that shattered Egypt is running every detail of your life, the pressure begins to fall away. Emunah is the operating system. Torah, mitzvos, and everything else are the programs we install into it. Without the OS, nothing runs. Nothing loads. Nothing works.
The Zohar says “Come and see — the Hazkaras Yetzias Mitzrayim is the foundation and root of the entire Torah, all the mitzvos, and the complete Emunah of Klal Yisroel.” Remove that root, and nothing stands. Plant it deep, and you can walk through this world unbreakable.

Who is a Gibor?
One who conquers their nature (Avos 4:1)
The Ten Makkos are not just a dramatic story in the Haggadah. They are a surgical strike on the illusion that the world runs by itself. In this shiur we explore how the plagues were a carefully constructed system designed to rebuild emunah in a people who had become spiritually numb inside Egypt. When Rav Yehudah compresses the plagues into the famous siman דצ״ך עד״ש באח״ב, he isn’t just helping children remember the order, he is revealing the map of reality itself: every realm of existence, from earth to water to sky to life itself, is under the absolute control of Hashem.
And the real target may not have been Egypt. It may have been us. After generations inside Mitzrayim, the Jewish people had become מגושם, absorbed, in the physical world and its apparent rules. The makkos shattered that illusion one strike at a time, showing that nature is not a closed system but a tool in the hands of the Creator.
And so it is for us all in every generation. A lesson to return to the true understanding and faith in Hashem.
Pesach isn’t about remembering miracles. It’s about rebuilding the emunah that those miracles were meant to awaken.

Who is a Gibor?
One who conquers their nature (Avos 4:1)
“בְּנִי בְכֹרִי יִשְׂרָאֵל — My son, My firstborn, Yisroel.”
In this episode we confront one of the foundations of Pesach and of Jewish existence itself: Hashem runs the world with hashgacha pratis, and the Jewish people were chosen to bring His presence into it. But living with that knowledge isn’t easy. Some souls move through life calm and steady. Others live like they’re being dragged through fire — jumping from idea to idea, faith to doubt, hope to despair. Those tortured souls often feel like they’ve thrown themselves into kaf hakelah, spinning between belief and disbelief.
That’s why emunah cannot be just a concept. It’s a daily dose. Something that must be anchored again and again before it slips through your fingers. Because even when you can’t feel it, even when everything inside you feels shattered, the deepest point of your nefesh is still a chelek Elokai mimaal — a piece of the Divine itself.
And down there, your emunah is still pure.

Who is a Gibor?
One who conquers their nature (Avos 4:1)
Pesach wasn’t just a jailbreak from Egypt. It was a war against avodah zarah—and the first weapon was shockingly simple: take the Egyptian god, the lamb, and tie it to your bed. Four days staring at it. Four days dismantling the lie. And in each generation we need to find the avoda zarah for that generation and tie it and prepare it for slaughter.
We open the haggadah with הא לחמא עניא, the bread of poverty, because, as with every moment and step on the night of the Seder, we are building our Emunah stores for the year. Listen to find out how this first seemingly random out-of-place song is the key to the whole thing.
Along the way we talk about the dangerous difference between wealthy people and rich people and how the sickness of rich people has wounded our community since Kamtza and Bar Kamtza.
I also had a few words for our dear friend Tucker Carlson.
If you want to understand Pesach, you have to understand the one foundation everything stands on: emunah.
