Torah Time

Moshe leads the Jewish people in making sacrifices and sprinkling blood, but this time, the kids get to be involved. Sounds messy! Adira and Miriam-Simma think about what it could mean to say "we will do and we will hear" in that order.

If Hashem took the Jewish people out of Egypt on eagles' wings, that would make Mt. Sinai the nest, right? Miriam-Simma reads Hashem's special message to the Jewish people and Adira asks what we can do to be a holy nation.

How do you say thank you after being saved by Hashem? With a tambourine of course! Adira and Miriam-Simma talk about Miriam the Prophetess and how they would've thanked Hashem if they had been at the splitting of the sea.

Pharaoh refuses to let the Jews go because his heart is “heavy” and Adira and Miriam-Simma have a breakthrough while they think about all of the difficult feelings that Moshe and Pharaoh must have had when facing each other.

Sometimes, there are scary things that we don’t want to do. It even happened to Moshe too! Miriam-Simma and Adira talk about why we make excuses and why Moshe’s siblings were just the people to help him.

After Moshe runs away from Egypt, he meets God at the burning bush. But what was so special about that place and that fire? Adira wonders how Moshe felt about seeing something so unexpected and hearing God call out to him.

A new podcast that helps busy families make quality time for learning the weekly parashah together. Every week, Miriam-Simma and her daughter, Adira, set aside some “Torah Time” for reading and talking about the weekly Torah portion. Now, you’re invited to learn along with them! “Torah Time” is designed for kids ages 6+ to listen to independently or together with families and teachers.
