🎤 Ask Away! #34: Worst Sins, Loving Chassidim & the Real Power Against Enemies [Everyday Judaism - Ep. 96 - Q&A Series]

In Ask Away #34, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe tackles profound and sometimes challenging questions with clarity, warmth, and deep Torah insight. The episode begins with a clear explanation of the 613 Mitzvos, the 365 prohibitions, and the 7 Noahide laws, emphasizing that we should treat every commandment as if it were the most important. He then explores the deeper purpose of the Temple — not only an external structure but a call for us to elevate ourselves through real-life struggle and growth, rather than remaining in isolated holiness.Rabbi Wolbe addresses the complexities of Shalom Bayit in interfaith marriages, the beauty of learning to speak each other’s “language” in marriage, and offers a heartfelt defense of Chassidic customs while highlighting the extraordinary Chesed (kindness) of the Chassidic community (Hatzalah, Bikur Cholim, etc.). He responds thoughtfully to a difficult contemporary question about enemies and chastisement, reminding listeners that the ultimate solution lies in our own Teshuvah and closeness to Hashem. The session closes with inspiration on the centrality of Torah study throughout Jewish history and the incredible resources available today.As always, Rabbi Wolbe blends practical halacha, historical perspective, personal stories, and motivational guidance, leaving listeners empowered to grow in their relationship with Hashem.Please submit your questions at [email protected]_____________The Everyday Judaism Podcast is dedicated to learning, understanding and appreciating the greatness of Jewish heritage and the Torah through the simplified, concise study of Halacha, Jewish Law, thereby enhancing our understanding of how Hashem wants us to live our daily lives in a Jewish way._____________This Podcast Series is Generously Underwritten by Marshall & Doreen LernerDownload & Print the Everyday Judaism Halacha Notes:https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1RL-PideM42B_LFn6pbrk8MMU5-zqlLG5This episode of the Everyday Judaism Podcast by Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe of TORCH is dedicated to my dearest friends, Marshall & Doreen Lerner!
