Ep. 489: How Should We React to a Jew Publicly Refuting “His Jewishness Being Hijacked”?

Rabbi Jacobson will discuss the following topics:What does this week’s Torah portion and time period teach us today?  7 Adar  What mazal does this day bring us?  How does Moshe empower us today?  Are there any special customs or observances on this day?  How could Haman have made such a big mistake and not know the day of Moshe’s birthday?  Is there a connection between Moshe’s name not being mentioned in Tetzaveh with G-d's name not being mentioned on the Megillah?  What is the primary theme of this parsha and its lessons to us?  What is the significance of the small alef in Vayikra?  Why offerings?  Are we fulfilling the mitzvah of prayer if we just say the words without the intention of offering ourselves to G-d?  What is a shelomim (peace) offering?   What is today's equivalent of the peace offering that we can do to end wars?  What is the main theme of Purim and how can we access its power in our time?  What does Purim teach us about today’s war?  Are any of our enemies today a reincarnation of Haman and his cohorts?   Why is G-d's name not mentioned on the Megillah, and how does that give us a deeper appreciation of G-d's essence?  How do the references to “the king” throughout the Megillah reflect on G-d?  What do we learn from Mordechai about...  Why are Jews referred to as Yehudim in the Megillah?  What did the Jews do wrong in attending Achashverosh's party?
