  • Ep 77 - God! Show me your Glory (Berachos 7a-7b)
    2025/03/28

    What happens when Moses, the great prophet, asks to see the face of God and is denied? Join us as we unravel the intriguing narratives from the Talmud where contrasting interpretations by Rabbi Yeshua ben Korchah and Rabbi Shmuel Bar Nachmani shed light on a pivotal moment in Moses' journey. Discover how a single choice at the burning bush led to Moses' spiritual reward, and why adhering to kosher laws is more accessible than ever, with everyday products surprising us with their kosher certifications.

    Have you ever wondered about the legacy of Abraham and the astonishing fulfillment of promises made to Moses? We explore an extraordinary Talmudic discussion revealing the astonishing growth of Moses' lineage, thanks to the method of Gezeras Shaveh. This episode also brings to life the mystical teachings of Rabbi Shimon ben Yochai, illustrating how his time in isolation became a powerful testament to spiritual development. We also acknowledge Abraham's pioneering role in establishing the morning prayer and delve into the origins of idolatry from the perspective of the Rambam.

    Gratitude often gets overshadowed by our daily routines, but what if appreciating everyday blessings could transform our lives? Reflect with me on the luxuries we frequently overlook—from the simplicity of strawberries to the technology connecting us with loved ones across the globe. Through personal anecdotes and Talmudic wisdom, this episode emphasizes the profound impact of gratitude on our well-being.
