Chukas – Rock On

Different approaches as to what went wrong at the rock. The role of water, clouds, and heavenly bread reflected in our three greatest teachers and how they ultimately affect our destiny.

Korach – World's greatest political mastermind

The greatest political campaign of all time, the Kulanu Kedoshim campaign. A campaign so powerful it takes 2 miracles and a plague to end it. How our sages understood division in a breathtaking Mishna in Pirkei Avos.

BeHaaloscha – Light it UP!

A truly awesome Rashi, buttressed by the Ramban's retort, and embellished by an Alshich! All along trying to answer the age old question, "What's so great about lighting a Menorah?" Enlightening.

BeHar/BeChukosai – What DOES Shmitta have to do with Har Sinai?

Reopening the case on Shmitta and Har Sinai. Does Rashi really answer the question? What do these two concepts have to do with one another? How is this meant to impact us with Shavuos fast approaching?

Achrei Mos/Kedoshim – Whose kind of holy.

Delving deep into the Ramban and Rashi's definition of Kedoshim. Why are they arguing? And the bomb dropped by, you betcha', the Ksav V'HaKaballah himself. the holy R' Yaakov Zvi Meklemberg, and the question to which I have no answer. It's a doozy.
