Over Rav Shlomo Katz on the Parsha

Each week, Rav Shlomo Katz opens the parsha through the inner world of Torah, drawing from the deep wells of the Chassidic masters. With warmth, clarity, and honesty, these teachings weave together Chassidus, Tanach, and lived experience, inviting us to encounter the parsha not only as a text to be studied but as a mirror for the soul.

aflevering Nitzavim: Which Mitzvah Is Closest To Me? artwork

Nitzavim: Which Mitzvah Is Closest To Me?

"It is not in Heaven... it is very close to you." What specific Mitzvah is the Torah referring to? Rav Shlomo Katz explores the classic debate between Rashi (who says it is Torah study) and the Ramban (who says it is Teshuvah). We dive into the Vilna Gaon's view on the infinite value of a single letter of Torah, and Rav Kook's profound insight into why Teshuvah is simultaneously the easiest and the hardest commandment. Rav Shlomo connects this to the concept of Kiddushin (marriage), where a person can become righteous in a single split second of thought.  This episode encourages us to stop viewing spirituality as distant and impossible, and to realize that the key to return is already in our mouths and hearts.  --------------------------------------------------------------------------------  For more Shuirim and Music from Rav Shlomo Katz, visit: https://ravshlomokatz.com Join Rav Shlomo Katz's WhatsApp Community: https://chat.whatsapp.com/KHKOhhPaeHx5Kb74WL9L9a?mode=ems_copy_t

Nitzavim: Did I Take Advantage Of The Past Year?

As we approach Rosh Hashanah, are we standing firm or are we being blown over by every passing wind? Rav Shlomo Katz explores the power of Atem Nitzavim—standing like a monument. Drawing on the Baal Shem Tov and the Slonimer Rebbe, we learn that true preparation for the High Holy Days isn't just about checking off a list of sins, but about becoming a "Guarantor" (Arev) for the people in our lives. Rav Shlomo asks the piercing question: "Did I take advantage of the friendships Hashem gave me this year?" We discuss the difference between the "Details" of a person and the "All" (Kulchem) of a person, realizing that while our details may be flawed, our essence remains holy.  This episode challenges us to stop compromising on the depth of our relationships and to stand together as one indivisible unit before the King.  --------------------------------------------------------------------------------  For more Shuirim and Music from Rav Shlomo Katz, visit: https://ravshlomokatz.com Join Rav Shlomo Katz's WhatsApp Community: https://chat.whatsapp.com/KHKOhhPaeHx5Kb74WL9L9a?mode=ems_copy_t

aflevering Ki Tavo: Is Sadness An Aveira? artwork

Ki Tavo: Is Sadness An Aveira?

Why do bad things happen? The Torah gives a frighteningly simple answer: "Because you did not serve Hashem with joy." Rav Shlomo Katz delves into this difficult concept through the lens of the Rambam and the Klausenberger Rebbe. We learn that sadness is considered the "greatest sin" not because it is forbidden, but because it is a dead end that implies Hashem made a mistake. Rav Shlomo explains the difference between being a "Nebach" (victim) and being a partner. We explore how asking Hashem for help with joy opens gates that tears of despair can never reach.  This episode is a guide to changing our frequency from serving God as a burden to serving Him as the greatest privilege in the world.  --------------------------------------------------------------------------------  For more Shuirim and Music from Rav Shlomo Katz, visit: https://ravshlomokatz.com Join Rav Shlomo Katz's WhatsApp Community: https://chat.whatsapp.com/KHKOhhPaeHx5Kb74WL9L9a?mode=ems_copy_t

Ki Teitze: From the Moment You Leave the Womb, IT'S A WAR

Is life supposed to be easy, or were we born for battle? In this empowering session, Rav Shlomo Katz reframes our existence based on the Heichal HaBracha (Komarna Rebbe). We learn that "When you go out to war" hints at the moment a soul leaves the womb—we are born directly into a battlefield, and that is exactly where we are meant to be. Rav Shlomo challenges the depressing notion that struggle is a sign of failure. Instead, we discover that we are soldiers in Hashem's elite unit, and the constant friction of life is the friction of holiness being revealed.  This episode is a pep talk for the weary soul, reminding us that being at war doesn't mean you are losing; it means you are alive and in the game.  --------------------------------------------------------------------------------  For more Shuirim and Music from Rav Shlomo Katz, visit: https://ravshlomokatz.com Join Rav Shlomo Katz's WhatsApp Community: https://chat.whatsapp.com/KHKOhhPaeHx5Kb74WL9L9a?mode=ems_copy_t

aflevering Ki Teitze: Who Can Go Out To Fight? artwork

Ki Teitze: Who Can Go Out To Fight?

What is the difference between an external battle and an internal struggle?  In this profound session, Rav Shlomo Katz explores the opening verse: "When you go out to war against your enemies." Drawing on the Tanya and the concept of Brit (Covenant) from Rabbi Yitzchak Ginsburgh, we learn that a person cannot truly conquer the "world" until they have settled the internal war of "Am I really sure?" Rav Shlomo discusses the debilitating nature of doubt (Amalek) and shares a personal encounter on a plane regarding a Persian Jew who lived with the simple clarity: "We have a Covenant."  This episode is a call to move beyond the exhausting daily decision-making of faith and to enter a "Brit"—a state where our commitment to Hashem is locked in, allowing us to finally go out and shine.  --------------------------------------------------------------------------------  For more Shuirim and Music from Rav Shlomo Katz, visit: https://ravshlomokatz.com Join Rav Shlomo Katz's WhatsApp Community: https://chat.whatsapp.com/KHKOhhPaeHx5Kb74WL9L9a?mode=ems_copy_t
