Tehilim 30: Mizmor Shir Chanukas ha'Bayis le'David (Part 1 - Translation and First Impressions)

Have any questions, insights, or feedback? Send me a text!Length: 1 hour 6 minutesSynopsis: This evening (12/10/25), in our Wednesday night Tehilim shiur, we (read: I) decided that we needed a break from the "Kabbalas Shabbos" series we've been learning. Since Chanukah is right around the corner, we took up the Shir shel Yom of Chanukah, which many people also recite every day. The translation took a bit more effort, so we didn't have a ton of time to develop our theories. Still, we had a nice start and there are already some interesting approaches brewing.-----מקורות:תהלים צחרמב"ם - פירוש המשניות, חגיגה ב:א-----This week’s Torah content is sponsored by Rifka Kaplan-Peck in memory of her grandpa, Izrail Kaplan (a”h), who never forgot to look up above and appreciate another day.-----If you've gained from what you've learned here, please consider contributing to my Patreon at www.patreon.com/rabbischneeweiss.
