WHEN BAD PEOPLE HAVE GOOD IDEAS
Understanding Rabbi Nachman’s teaching is difficult as it appears contrary to what one might expect. The precise translation of chutzpah is so elusive that instead of a translation the term itself has become part of the… Continue

Chukas #3
In this week's parsha Moshe commits the sin of hitting the rock instead of speaking to it (20;11).
However, what exactly is the difference between speaking and hitting the rock? They're both miracles!?! Why was hitting the rock such a big sin that caused Hashem to swear to never allow Moshe to enter the land of Israel (20;12)?
Additionally, how is the punishment of not being allowed… Continue

Chukas
In this week's parsha Moshe commits the sin of hitting the rock which made him unable to enter the land of Israel.
The Rambam says that Moshe's sin of hitting the rock was anger. However, Rashi (20;12) says it was because he failed to scantily Hashem's name!?!
Rashi (20;10) relates that the word "hamorim" (meaning: rebellious) refers to people who instruct their teachers.
Rabbi Yochanan Zweig explains that most people think… Continue

successfully handing it down to our children
Tips for handing down our heritage and faith
In regards to chinuch, many are mainly taught just what to do when practicing, but don't really understand or feel it inside. We need to know why to do it, so it's meaningful. For example, besides because it's our obligation, it's also food for our soul. It connects us to Ha-shem and also brings light to the world.
Plus, besides reverence, we should teach love for G-d. And people should be a good example of both…

Korach
In this week’s parsha, Korach gathers 250 court leaders and challenges Moshe's leadership. In line with expectation, the dispute ended by the earth opening its mouth and swallowing all of the complainers and their possessions.
Rashi (16;1) explains that Korach was jealous because Moshe had appointed Elizaphan the prince instead of him. Therefore, Korach formed a rebellion against Moshe in attempt to gain the high status he felt he deserved (Korach thought: Amram… Continue

HIGHER CALLING
Korach stands out as the paradigm of one who leads a controversy not for the sake of Heaven (see Avoth 5:17). Yet remarkably Rashi ZT’L ZY’A commenting on 16:7 offers an elaborate justification for Korach’s actions. Rashi prefaces his remarks by observing that Korach was renowned as a clear thinker. Therefore, his challenge to Moshe A’H authority seems at the very least contrary to self…

Great message for couples
I was reading about a certain marriage issue and the article had a good point. I won't say the story, but the lesson.
Life is so busy with work and kids etc. Many couples don't spend enough time with each other, and their
small problems with each other just grow.
The first step is both have to be willing to improve things. Sometimes, in a generally okay marriage, the problem might be that the couple doesn't communicate enough. Either it's hard for them, or they're…

SELF INTEREST NATIONAL DISASTER
The Zohar discusses at length that the spies’ concern overrode their prior level of piety. Losing their station as leaders was more important than national fulfillment by settling the Land of Israel. Living in a tent in the desert was preferred… Continue
