81. The Bright Yellow Camaro
September 08, 2010
My friend came to visit from Florida, and rented a bright yellow Camaro. He claims that it was the only car available, but we know the truth. Little did I know how much I would benefit from his rental car:
A stranger stopped me in front of my house, and said, “I understand that you are the m...

82. Searching For Silence
August 25, 2010
I received the following article and do not know who wrote it, but it’s worthwhile. I’m using it to prepare to listen to the sound of the Shofar: It’s high summer and we’re all out there seeing each other. We’re not
hidden away in our homes and offices as we are in winter’s cold. We’re part ...

83. Shofetim: Marathon Man
August 16, 2010
Awhile he holds some false way, undebarr’d
By thwarting signs, and braves
The freshening wind and blackening waves.
And then the tempest strikes him; and between
The lightning bursts is seen
Only a driving wreck,
And the pale master on his spar-strew-d...

84. Stuck in A Role
August 03, 2010
She listens carefully to many lectures on prayer, and prays according to her notes, but she finds that her prayers remain unanswered.
He writes down everything he learns about being a good husband, makes lists of all the things a husband must do, and still is unable to make his wife happy wi...

85. The Manichaean Candidate
July 27, 2010
No, it is not a typo or spelling mistake. The Manichaeans, (the original faith embraced by Augustine), the Cathars (from where we derive “catharsis”) and the Bogomils (from where we derive “bugger”) were early dualist faiths. They believed that there were, in fact, two sources of divine power in the...

86. A Walk In The Garden
May 21, 2010
I wish that I could have walked behind Elijah and Elisha as they headed to where Elijah would rise up to heaven in a storm. I can’t even imagine what the two giants, Rebbi and student, were discussing as they walked. I wish I could have walked alongside Moses as he led the Children of Israel throug...

87. The Judgment Of The Birds
April 26, 2010
“…and for the person being purified there shall be taken two live, clean birds…and the one bird shall be slaughtered…as for the live bird…set free upon the open field.” (Leviticus 14:4-7)
Every time I study this portion, which describes the purification process of the Metzorah, who has been ...

88. The Strength of Arguing
April 13, 2010
The Anshei Knesset HaGedolah conclude the first Mishna in Avot by teaching, “Strengthen your Torah through constant discussion.” (Chassid Ya’avetz, who does not believe that the Mishna teaches us to “Make a fence around the Torah!”)
Who were these people? The Talmud teaches: “Why were they c...

89. Surprise! by Rabbi Simcha Weinberg
April 09, 2010
Because there was nothing in the cosmic order, no unsolved puzzle, no tailor-made niche, that necessitated the muon’s existence, the Nobel Prize-winning particle physicist Isidor Isaac Rabi greeted the discovery of the muon with a less than enthusiastic “Who ordered that?” Nevertheless, there it was...

90. The Professional Tzaddik
March 30, 2010
The entire Yeshiva was buzzing with the story. A student had the great privilege to bring a hot tea to the holy rabbi each day after lunch. He did this for five years. One day, when he went to the dining room to get hot water he was frustrated to find the urns empty. He ran to the cook and told him ...
