Descripción

The first spies saw Eretz Yisrael and collapsed into fear, but Yehoshua's spies entered Yericho and came back protected. Why were they sent in the disguise of kli cheres, plain pottery vessels with no real value beyond what they carry? Rabbi Prisman follows the Sfas Emes into a sharp question about mitzvos, motives, and the quiet danger of bringing your own agenda into Hashem's mission. And when a Shayetet 13 candidate stops in the water to put on tefillin, the idea suddenly becomes very real. What protection does a person find when he is willing to become only the vessel?

Your Biggest Problem Is You - Parshas Behaaloscha- Ep. 437

Why did the silver trumpets in the Mishkan have to be hammered from a single piece of metal? And what do trumpets used for journeys, war, and Chagim have in common? In Parshas Behaaloscha, Rabbi Prisman uncovers the unifying message of the chatzotzros. Through the story of an elite IDF soldier who never knows where his blacked-out bus will take him - dropped in desert or beach, always on the move - he brings the parsha's "al pi Hashem" to life. Drawing from the Shlah Hakadosh, Rav Hirsch, and the Sefer Hachinuch, he shows that the trumpet is always a wake-up call: in movement, in danger, and in celebration alike. He closes with a story from Rav Elazar Abish about a man whose rebbe mailed back his letter of complaint with every "I" and "me" circled. The message is the same one the trumpet has been sounding all along - are you a Hashem-centric Jew or an egocentric one?
