Ep. 491: How Do We Reconcile Today's Difficulties With This Double Month of Joy and Redemption Leading Into Pesach?
from MyLife: Chassidus Applied · host Rabbi Simon Jacobson
Rabbi Jacobson will discuss the following topics:What does this week’s Torah portion and time period teach us today? How do you maintain a positive and joyous outlook with all the troubles brewing around us? How do we reconcile the difficulties we are facing today with this double month of joy and the redemption of Purim leading into the redemption of Pesach? What is the main theme of Parshas HaChodesh, and what lessons can we derive from this unique chapter? What is the significance of the four special parshios we read between these weeks – from Adar through Nissan? Do they correlate to the four worlds of Atzilus Beriah Yetzira and Asiya? What is the main theme of Parshas Shemini and what are its lessons for us? What do we learn from the story of Nadav and Avihu? What takes precedence: Winning the war or freeing the hostages? How do you respond to those that try to create a moral equivalence between both sides? Should we excommunicate a Jew who attacks Israel? Should we sing Napoleons March every day as a reminder that we will be victorious in the war? What can we do differently after Chof Zayin Adar and Gimmel Tammuz to help bring Moshiach? What did the Rebbe say that we should be doing when a Rebbe has a stroke? Is Moshiach here or not here? How are we sure that after Moshiach comes our negative behavior will not reverse the process? Should Moshiach’s imminent coming make us work faster and harder, with a greater sense of urgency, to finish our job? Why is this time right before the Geulah compared to Erev Shabbos? The Gaza War Moshiach What can we learn from the bridge collapse in Baltimore? Is it wrong for a Rabbi to use an artificial intelligence program to write his weekly Dvar Torah?
