🎙️ New Episode: Parshas Chukas – Our Story, Continued.

Moshe sends a message to the king of Edom: “So says your brother, Israel: You know all the hardships that have befallen us.” But how can Edom possibly know our suffering? They never felt the pain of slavery. They didn’t stand at Sinai. Why speak to them this way?

Even if Edom didn’t live the exile, they still carry the soul of Avraham. And that spark, says the Rebbe, can still answer the call.

We also reflect on Israel’s recent victories. Missiles may fall, but the Jewish soul rises. The connection between Jews is never defined by distance—it’s defined by presence, empathy, and prayer.

🎙️ New Episode – Parshas Korach: Carried By Vision

The ground opened beneath Korach, but the doubts didn’t close with it.
G-d didn’t just silence rebellion. He planted a deeper message.

Aaron’s staff didn’t strike—it bloomed. In silence. In holiness.
Because true leaders don’t rise for power. They rise to lift others.

This week’s episode connects Korach’s fall to the Rebbe’s legacy—revealing what it really means to lead, especially as we approach Gimmel Tammuz.

🎙️ New Episode – Parshas Beha’alosecha: The Hidden Belonging

What does a convert have in common with someone who missed the first Pesach?
Everything.

Both stand at the edge, wondering if it’s too late to belong.
And both receive the same reply: There is one law for you—for the convert and the citizen.
Not because we make room for them, but because they were always part of the story.

This Parsha Perspective is a powerful look at second chances, true inclusion, and the Ohr HaChaim’s bold insight:
That your soul was at the Exodus, even if you’re just discovering it now.

🎙️ Parshas Naso: Back from Beyond

Why does the Torah circle back to the Metzora—the one sent outside all three camps—right after listing the service of the Leviim?
Because G-d doesn’t just describe distance. He maps the way home.

Even those furthest from the Mishkan were given a specific process of return.
There is no such thing as permanent exile. No one is too far gone.

This week’s Parsha Perspective explores how the Torah shows us a path back—no matter how hidden it feels.
And coming right after Shavuos, it’s the perfect reminder that Torah is not beyond us.
It’s in our mouths, our hearts, and our next step forward.

The Lag BaOmer Perspective: Fire From Within

Lag BaOmer is a day of joy, fire, and song.
But its roots are shadowed by loss, exile, and silence.

Why do we celebrate a day born from such pain?
Because that’s where true light is forged.

Rabbi Akiva lost everything—and rebuilt.
Rabbi Shimon hid for thirteen years—and revealed the Zohar.
Their fire was not about comfort. It was about conviction.

Parshas Acharei Mos & Kedoshim: Holiness Through Habit

This Parsha teaches us that holiness isn’t found in grand gestures. It lives in our daily decisions.

The repetition of Shabbos in these Pesukim isn’t just emphasis.
It’s a message: When we guard Shabbos, we protect our relationship with G-d.

This episode explores how holiness is built through rhythm, how our homes carry atmosphere, and why consistency is the deepest form of faith.

Parshas Tazria & Metzora: Restoring the Soul

What if healing didn’t mean going back—
but becoming someone truer?

The Metzora brings cedar wood, crimson yarn, and hyssop.
Why? Because each one reflects something deeper:
🌳 Arrogance
🧵 Brokenness
🌱 Humility

And together—they spark transformation.

🎙️ This week on The Parsha Perspective, we explore:
💡 How the Rebbe saw teshuvah as realignment—not repair
🌿 Why the purification process wasn’t just symbolic—it was soul work
🧠 What it means to grow one quiet step at a time

Each day of the Omer brings us closer to who we’re meant to become.
We don’t just prepare for Shavuos.
We rebuild toward it.
Not by pretending we’re whole—but by embracing where healing begins.

🔥 Parshas Shemini: Called to Lead

What if the only thing standing between you and your purpose…
was the belief that you’re not ready?

Aaron stood at the altar—frozen.
He had been forgiven. He had been chosen.
But he didn’t feel worthy.

Moshe told him: “Come close. Bring your korban. And then lead the people.”

In this episode, we explore:
🕯️ How your greatest doubt can become your greatest strength
📖 Why G-d insists we show up before we feel “ready”
💡 And how leadership begins—not with ego—but with presence

Forward Into Light: The Pesach Perspective

In merit of a Refuah Shlema for Pnina bas Shoshana Miriam and all those in need.

Pesach isn’t just about being freed.
It’s about becoming the people who live free.

This week’s episode explores:
✨ The Rebbe’s vision of freedom as responsibility
đź’ˇ Why G-d gave us choice instead of perfection
📖 How we carry the story of redemption—not just retell it

This year, as we gather around the Seder table, we don’t just remember the Exodus.
We continue it.
We reclaim freedom not as comfort—but as calling.
Not as something we had—but something we must live.

🧂 Parshas Vayikra: Essence Over Ego

We often associate holiness with sweetness, rise, emotion. But the Torah says something else.

It bans yeast. It bans honey. And it commands salt.

Why?
Because yeast inflates. Honey coats. But salt? Salt preserves. It draws out what’s already there. It doesn’t need to be noticed—it just needs to be true.

This week’s Parsha reminds us that the altar was not a stage. The korban was not about performing. It was about returning. And only truth can rise all the way to Heaven.

🎙️ In this episode, we explore:
• Why yeast and honey are left off the altar
• What salt teaches us about real spiritual connection
• How to build a life that reflects essence—not ego

🏗️ Parshas Pekudei: Redemption In Progress

đź’— In merit of a Refuah Shlema for Pesha Henna Bas Yitta Gittel and all those who need healing.

The Torah repeats the word Mishkan twice in a single verse. Why the redundancy?

💡 Rashi teaches it’s a coded message: a prophecy of the two Temples destroyed, not in abandonment—but as collateral. G-d didn’t walk away. He’s holding His promise—waiting for us to return, rebuild, and reclaim what was never truly lost.

The Rebbe emphasized: We are not just waiting for redemption—we are constructing it. Every act of faith, kindness, or spiritual growth is a brick in the future Beis HaMikdash.

đź’ˇ Parshas Vayakhel: Beyond the Moment

Moshe gathers the Jewish people to teach them about the Mishkan, but before anything else, he reminds them about Shabbos.

Why? Because true success isn’t just about action—it’s about purpose.

🔹 Shabbos does not pause our work—it sanctifies it.
🔹 Strength alone does not guarantee victory—it’s the values behind it that endure.
🔹 The Jewish people fight two battles—one physical, one spiritual. The key to winning both? Recognizing that G-d directs history.
