A deeper understanding of the blessings and curses

Deeper understanding of the Shemitah year

The deeper meaning behind the seventh year commandment off clearing out the old produce and bringing in the new brought from the Gerer Rebbe

Just one more day

“If you try catch butterflies, they’ll fly away…”

Faith

The Torah is meant to be read as guidance to the Jewish people for this very day. I’m this Dvar Torah, Nachmanides speaks straight to the Jewish people of today (Oct. 2023). Lech Lecha doesn’t just mean leaving behind bad traits and moving forward in life, it speaks on a general concept of leaving your comfort zone and coming to Israel, just as Avraham did. While I’m not usually one to make this statement, given recent events I feel more than ever that a Jew is safest in the holy land, where HaShem’s eyes are upon it from the beginning of the year until the end.

To all my brothers and sisters outside of Israel, it’s time to leave your comfort zones (which even these days are not so comfortable) and come home.

Shabbat Shalom

This is one of my favorite Baal Shem Tov stories. It’s perfect for Rosh Hashanah to help put us in the right frame of mind as we come close to this very holy day. Hear what happens to a chassid whose dream has always been to celebrate RH with the BeShT and finally gets the opportunity.
