  • Tehilim 137: Al Naharos Bavel (Part 1)

    Have any questions, insights, or feedback? Send me a text!

    Length: 1 hour
    Synopsis: This evening (11/29/23), in our Wednesday night Tehilim shiur, we took up Al Naharos Bavel. After an introductory "myth-busters" mini-shiur on the REAL minhag of Shir ha'Maalos (which most people do NOT follow) and a methodological interlude from William Hazlitt, we translated the perek, identified the pivot point, and began raising questions and problems - especially with regards to the jarringly gruesome final pasuk. Our analysis of the ideas will commence next time (בג"ה).

  • Tehilim 121 REDUX: Esa Einai (Part 2)

    Have any questions, insights, or feedback? Send me a text!

    Length: 1 hour
    Synopsis: This evening (11/22/23), in our Wednesday night Tehilim shiur, we began reviewing the translations, questions, and approaches we took last time. We then learned through the Sforno's commentary and used his explanation of many of the phrases to develop our own approach. In the end, we answered nearly all of our questions AND came up with a solid theory for the main idea, and how to utilize this perek in strengthening our relationship with Hashem.

  • Tehilim 121 REDUX: Esa Einai (Part 1)

    Have any questions, insights, or feedback? Send me a text!

    Length: 1 hour
    Synopsis: This evening (11/15/23), in our Wednesday night Tehilim shiur, we began relearning Tehilim 121, which I gave shiur on in May 2022. I found a new approach I wanted to share, but we spent all of tonight analyzing the perek on our own, which was really thought-provoking. Next time (בג"ה) we'll attempt to learn the perek according to the Sforno.

    Length: 1 hour 3 minutes
    Synopsis: This evening (11/8/23), in our Wednesday night Tehilim shiur, we continued and completed (for now) our learning of this perek! After a review of the text and the questions, we figured out an approach to the main idea, found support in the meforshim, and then developed that main idea into an understanding of the purpose of the perek with a focus on how we can apply it to the situation in Israel today. Thank God, it was a successful analysis of Tehilim!

We spent tonight reading, translating, and raising questions on the text. Next time (בג"ה) we'll try to answer these questions and figure out what this perek means.

  • Tehilim 130: A Song of Ascents - From the Depths I Called You, Hashem

    Have any questions, insights, or feedback? Send me a text!

    Length: 1 hour 9 minutes
    Synopsis: This evening (10/25/23), in our Wednesday night Tehilim shiur, we learned Tehilim 130, which many of us have been saying in response to the current war between Israel and Hamas. With Hashem's help, we were able to engage in a complete analysis - from translation, to questions, to a comprehensive understanding. I now feel like I understand what I'm supposed to be feeling, thinking, and doing while saying this perek, and I hope that by saying it with this new understanding, we'll be able to move one step closer to the redemption promised at the conclusion.

    Have any questions, insights, or feedback? Send me a text!

    Length: 1 hour 10 minutes
    Synopsis: This evening (10/18/23), in our Wednesday night Tehilim shiur, we began with a quick review of why we say Tehilim - what we're trying to get out of it, and how it works. Next, we reviewed the perek, our questions, and the basic pshat of the individual pesukim. After that, I introduced my theory of the main idea, much of which we developed the last time we learned this perek, but with some new insights and nuances thrown in. Even though we didn't end up getting a whole new approach to the perek, I think it was a useful review.

  • Should We Teach Hilchos Taaniyos to Students During an Eis Tzarah?

    Have any questions, insights, or feedback? Send me a text!

    Length: 25 minutes
    Synopsis: This evening (10/11/23), prior to our Wednesday night Tehilim shiur, I decided to take up a topic I felt I needed to address. Earlier today I had a VERY brief discussion with a fellow Jewish educator about how we've been handling our students' questions about horrific terrorist attacks on our people in Israel. I said that I don't have all the answers, but I knew I should begin with the Rambam's Hilchos Taaniyos 1:1-3, which is about the mitzvah we were given specifically to implement at a time of war. She felt that this was not a good approach to take at the present time. I disagreed. Strongly. We didn't really get a chance to discuss this length, so I won't presume to know her reasoning, but I wanted to talk out my own reasoning, and decided to do so tonight as a preface to our shiur on Tehilim 20.

  • Tehilim 20 REDUX: A Psalm for a Time of War (Part 1)

    Have any questions, insights, or feedback? Send me a text!

    Length: 33 minutes
    Synopsis: This evening (10/11/23), in our Wednesday night Tehilim shiur, I decided not to return to the perek we were learning before Yom ha'Kippurim and instead revisit a perek which (sadly) is relevant at the present time, when Israel is at war. Our shiur was cut short by the introductory topic we took up, but we still managed to read and translate the perek and raise most (if not all) of the key questions. Next time, we'll attempt to answer them and come up an understanding of the main idea and how to use this perek in our own lives. (If you can't wait until then, feel free to listen to Parts 2 and 3 from the last time we learned this, back in October 2021.

  • Tehilim 32: A Psalm About Teshuvah (?) (Part 1)

    Have any questions, insights, or feedback? Send me a text!

    Length: 1 hour 2 minutes
    Synopsis: This evening (9/20/23), in our Wednesday night Tehilim shiur, we began working on a VERY difficult perek - one that was made more difficult by the fact that I wasn't able to prepare it ahead of time. I'm not gonna lie: unless you plan on participating in this shiur next time, or unless you REALLY love "breaking your teeth on Tehilim" as they say (now, as of last night), I'm going to suggest that you wait until our recap at the beginning of Part 2, when (God willing) I'll have had time to learn through this and get it much clearer. Maybe listen to the VERY beginning of this shiur, when I mention a mesorah about Rav Hirsch from Rabbi Joseph B. Soloveitchik transmitted by word of mouth from R' Hershel Schachter. There are other tidbits in the shiur, but trust me - skip this one and wait for the sequel unless you're a diehard Tehilim-learner who wants to crawl through the mud with us.
