Send us a text This Shabbat, as Chanukah and Parshat Miketz converge, our hearts are heavy and our calling is clear. From the moment the Maccabees discovered a single cruse of oil in the desecrated Temple, Jewish history hinged not on what was found, but on what was done. They could have preserved the oil as a relic. Instead, they used it and ignited a light that has burned for 2,200 years. In the shadow of the tragic attack at the Chabad Chanukah celebration in Bondi Beach, Rabbi Yisroel Bernath delivers a sermon that explores a timeless Jewish truth: Judaism does not survive through museums or memory alone, but through lived action. Like Joseph in Miketz, who steps forward from darkness with faith and purpose, we are asked to respond to pain not by retreating, but by lighting, loving, and living more Jewishly than ever before. Key Takeaways The miracle of Chanukah was not the oil, it was the choice to use it. Judaism survives not by being preserved, but by being practiced. Darkness is real, but it never gets the final word. Every mitzvah, no matter how small, carries generational power. In moments of pain and fear, our response is not silence, but light. Honoring tragedy in Jewish history means responding with deeper Jewish life. Like Joseph in Miketz, we don’t need to know the ending, we just need to show up with what we have.

Send us a text In this morning’s class, Rabbi Yisroel Bernath explored the baffling, almost mythical global obsession with Israel and the Jewish people, a tiny nation that somehow takes up an outsized share of the world’s attention. Drawing on the teachings of Rabbi Simon Jacobson, Rabbi YY Jacobson, and Rabbi Manis Friedman, Rabbi Bernath unpacked the spiritual roots behind antisemitism and the world’s fixation on Jews. We confronted the paradox: being “chosen” doesn’t raise us above others, it humbles us beneath the weight of responsibility. Using the Alter Rebbe’s 1798 letter after his release on Yud Tes Kislev, we learned that true chosenness shrinks the ego while expanding the soul’s mission: to illuminate the world with goodness, moral clarity, unity, and love. When Jews embrace who we are… Divine ambassadors of light, we trigger the world. But we also transform it. Key Takeaways The obsession is ancient and irrational — Jews are less than 0.25% of the world, yet remain humanity’s main character. Reason alone cannot explain Jewish influence and survival — only our mission as bearers of ethical monotheism can. Chosen-ness ≠ superiority — it’s a call to responsibility, growth, and humility. Closeness to G-d shrinks the ego, not inflates it — “Katonti,” like Jacob said: “I am made small by Your kindness.” Anyone can join the Jewish people — chosenness is a spiritual calling, not a biological club. The world senses Jewish holiness — sometimes more than Jews do — and reacts intensely, for better or worse. Our role is universal — to be a moral lighthouse, not a fortress of self-importance. #Israel #Jewish #Chosen #chosenpeople #chosenness #alterrebbe #yudteskislev #JewishSpirituality #Rebbe #Antisemitism #LightOverDarkness #humility Support the show Got your own question for Rabbi Bernath?

Send us a text In this heart-opening conversation, Rabbi Bernath shares a powerful true story of a needy bride who felt ashamed to accept financial help, until she discovers that she is a partner, not a burden. Drawing on the Torah’s teaching of Yissachar and Zevulun, and Chassidic wisdom from the Lubavitcher Rebbe, he reveals the revolutionary idea that tzedakah is not a one-way act of charity but a sacred spiritual partnership. Through moving stories, including a dramatic tale of a Hatzalah medic and his unlikely agreement with a butcher afraid of blood the message becomes clear: the giver and receiver elevate and bless one another. Each act of kindness is a mutual exchange of soul-energy that strengthens Jewish unity and brings the world closer to redemption. Key Takeaways Receiving is also giving. The recipient grants the giver the opportunity to fulfill a supreme mitzvah and gain spiritual merit. Tzedakah is a partnership. Like Yissachar and Zevulun, both the supporter and the one supported share in the mitzvah. Spiritual reward is shared. Jewish law and Chassidic teachings affirm that those who enable mitzvot receive a full portion of the merit. Everyone has something to give. Whether materially or spiritually, we each fill in what others lack. Unity is our strength. Caring for one another is the secret of Jewish survival and the catalyst for redemption. Acts of kindness transform the world. When we give and receive with dignity, we illuminate each other’s lives and G-d’s world.

Send us a text Prayer isn’t supposed to feel far away, confusing, or “for holier people.” It’s a ladder right beneath your feet, starting exactly where you are, in your busy, messy, beautiful real life. Tonight, we explore the ancient Kabbalistic map of the four worlds of Action, Emotion, Understanding, and Oneness and discover how the structure of our daily prayers is designed to gently lift us, step by step. Jacob’s ladder becomes our ladder: a practical tool for finding meaning, presence, and Divine connection in a world that constantly pulls us down to earth. No experience needed. No advanced mysticism required. Just bring a heart that’s willing to take one small step upward. Key Takeaways Start Where You Are The ladder begins on the ground — spiritual growth doesn’t require feeling spiritual at first. Prayer Has Four Stages The siddur intentionally guides us from action → emotion → insight → connection . Small Steps Matter Even a single focused phrase or breath can shift us into a higher state of being. Two-Way Ladder As we elevate ourselves through prayer, G-d brings strength, clarity, and blessing down into our everyday life. You Are the Ladder Like Jacob, compassion is our bridge of every kind act connects heaven and earth. #Kabbalah #KabbalahForEveryone #JacobsLadder #FourWorlds #chassidus #PrayerJourney #JewishWisdom #SoulConnection #MindfulPrayer #HeavenAndEarth #CompassionInAction #ChassidicTeachings #JewishSpirituality #DailyTefillah #WorldOfAction #WorldOfFormation #WorldOfCreation #WorldOfEmanation #RatzovShov #RunAndReturn #SoulAwakening #chabad Support the show Got your own question for Rabbi Bernath?

Send us a text In this morning’s class, Rabbi Yisroel Bernath dove into one of the strangest, most beautiful marriage scenes in the entire Torah, Yitzchak and Rivkah caught “jesting” behind a window. Why does the Torah use a word for laughter to describe intimacy? Why is the first Jew born into the covenant literally named “He Will Laugh” ? And why does Rivkah’s name hint to a yoke of oxen , two forces pulling together toward transformation? Using Rashi, Midrash, Zohar, and the Alter Rebbe’s revolutionary maamar from 5569, we uncovered a powerful Chassidic idea: Laughter is born from contradiction. From the unexpected. From two worlds that shouldn’t fitand yet somehow do. That’s the secret of Yitzchak and Rivkah. That’s the secret of humanity. And that’s the secret of marriage. Today’s class explored how two people with different histories, tendencies, wounds, and temperaments can build something eternal… precisely because of their differences. When we choose holiness over instinct, love over ego, repair over distance, Heaven itself, the Alter Rebbe says, “laughs with delight.” Marriage, it turns out, is the ultimate divine joke. And our job is to embrace the punchline. TAKEAWAYS Laughter = Transformation The Alter Rebbe teaches that laughter is triggered when reality breaks its own rules. When a human transcends instinct choosing holiness over ego that is the greatest “cosmic joke.” Yitzchak’s Name Isn’t Cute … It’s His Mission “He will laugh” means the whole purpose of Jewish life is rising above our programmed nature. This is why the Torah uses metzachek : intimacy is the fusion of two worlds that shouldn’t naturally fit. Rivkah Is the Model of Human Greatness Raised in corruption, she becomes a “rose among thorns.” She is proof that background does not define destiny. She is the surprise that makes Heaven smile. Marriage Thrives on Differences, Not Sameness The clash, the contrast, the contradictions—these are not obstacles. They are the very material through which G-d’s laughter emerges. The greatest holiness comes from uniting opposites. Every Conflict Is an Invitation When your instinct says defend, and you choose softness… When your body says withdraw, and you choose connection… When your ego wants to be right, and you choose to be kind… That is holy laughter. That is Yitzchak. This Is Why Avimelech Knew Only husband and wife can create the kind of oneness that blends two spiritual worlds into something new. That oneness is holiness. That holiness is laughter. #Kabbalah #Torah #chassidus #Bible #BibleStudy #chassidut #kabala #Spiritual #spiritualgrowth #yitzchak #rivkah #ParshatToldot #parshastoldos #opposites #oppositesattract #marriage #intimacy Support the show Got your own question for Rabbi Bernath?

Send us a text In this morning’s class, Rabbi Bernath explored the timeless lesson hidden in a sleepy Midrash. When Rabbi Akiva saw his students dozing off, he woke them not with rebuke, but with revelation: the story of Queen Esther’s 127 provinces, mirroring the 127 years of Sarah’s life. From this, the Chedushei HaRim teaches that Sarah lived every moment so fully that each second became a kingdom of its own. Rabbi Akiva’s message? Every moment we “sleep through” is a world lost. Through humor, wisdom, and a dash of Churchill’s charm, Rabbi Bernath reminded us that time is not money, it’s life itself. Takeaways: Every Moment Matters: Like Sarah, each of us has the power to turn seconds into significance. Wakefulness Is Spiritual: Falling asleep… literally or metaphorically means missing the miracle of now. Time Is Life, Not Money: The Rebbe taught that time is not a commodity but a living gift. Use it with purpose. Presence Is Royalty: Esther’s reign flowed from Sarah’s lived time; our own “reign” depends on how awake we are to our days. Humor and Holiness Coexist: Even Churchill and Rabbi Akiva knew that a good laugh can wake up the soul. #Kabbalah #chassidus #Judaism #Jewish #jewishmysticism #time #presence #purpose #life #chabad #spiritualgrowth #Spiritual #chassidut #kabala #sarah Support the show Got your own question for Rabbi Bernath?

Send us a text In this heart-stirring exploration of the prophet Elisha’s miracle for the destitute widow, Rabbi Yisroel Bernath invites us to uncover our own “cruse of oil” the indestructible spark of holiness within. Drawing from Rabbi Schneur Zalman of Liadi’s profound interpretation, we discover that the widow’s empty vessels are our empty actions, our daily deeds done even without inspiration. When we keep showing up, praying, loving, giving, building those vessels eventually overflow with divine oil. This class takes the ancient story and turns it into a living roadmap for reigniting the soul when we feel emotionally or spiritually numb. Takeaways: Every soul possesses a pure “cruse of oil” an unbreakable core of divine essence untouched by pain, doubt, or apathy. When inspiration runs dry, the key is action: fill your life with “empty vessels” of goodness, even if your heart isn’t fully in it yet. Emotional numbness doesn’t mean the soul has died it’s a signal that something deeper is ready to be rediscovered. Love, awe, and purpose can be reclaimed through consistent small acts of holiness they become the vessels for divine flow. The moment the spark reawakens, all your past “empty” deeds become filled with meaning, joy, and light. #Bible #Kabbalah #Judaism #Jewish #mysticism #jewishmysticism #chassidus #chassidut #spiritualgrowth #Rabbi #chabad #spiritualgrowth #inspiration #soul #essence #Spiritual #divinespark Support the show Got your own question for Rabbi Bernath?

Send us a text In this heartfelt Ask Me Anything, Rabbi Bernath responds to someone from the Kabbalah for Everyone Community, a lifelong Reform Jew who asks a question many have quietly carried: “Am I less of a Jew because I was raised Reform?” Rabbi Bernath explores how Jewish identity transcends denominational labels. Drawing on teachings from Tanya and Rashi , he reminds us that every Jewish soul is a piece of G-d, unbreakable and equally precious. This conversation becomes more than an answer, it’s an invitation to rediscover who we are beneath the labels. It’s a love letter to every Jew who has ever wondered if they still belong. Takeaways: There are no “levels” of Jewishness. Every Jew, regardless of affiliation or observance carries the same Divine spark. Denominations are man-made; the soul is G-d-made. Labels were meant to organize ideas, not divide hearts. Jewish identity is a relationship, not a category. Wherever you learn, pray, or grow, your connection to G-d is real and alive. Belonging is not earned — it’s inherited. You’re part of the same eternal covenant, the same people, the same love story that began at Sinai. Your light matters. Every small act of faith, study, or kindness sustains the Jewish people. #Judaism #Jewish #JewishIdentity #reform #orthodox #belonging #Kabbalah Support the show Got your own question for Rabbi Bernath?

Send us a text This morning, Rabbi Bernath explored a fascinating question raised by the great medieval sage Nachmanides (the Ramban): Why does the Torah introduce every major biblical figure with their background—except Abraham? Why does G-d suddenly appear and tell him, “Lech Lecha — Go to yourself” , without any explanation of why him ? The Ramban and later Chassidic masters reveal something extraordinary: G-d didn’t just speak to Abraham. He speaks to everyone . The difference is — Abraham heard it. “Lech Lecha” is not a one-time command; it’s a timeless call to every soul to move forward, step out of fear, and become the person G-d created us to be. Rabbi Bernath illustrated this with the story of Avraham Vetzler , a 90-year-old Holocaust survivor who, after eight decades of silence, suddenly felt the call to return—to light, to Torah, to G-d. His story reminds us that it’s never too late to hear our own Lech Lecha . Key Takeaways: G-d is always speaking. The question is: am I listening? “Lech Lecha” is a call to every human being — to leave behind fear, comfort, and old patterns and journey toward our truest self. Growth begins when we notice that inner whisper and take one brave step forward. You’re never too old, too far, or too lost to hear the call again. #Kabbalah #Judaism #Jewish #LechLecha #Abraham #purpose #Faith #mysticism #spiritualgrowth #BibleStudy #Bible #Parsha #ParshatLechLecha #chassidus #chassidut Support the show Got your own question for Rabbi Bernath?

Send us a text This morning, Rabbi Bernath explored one of the most misunderstood heroes in Torah, Noach. While the Torah calls him a tzaddik , some sages question whether he was truly righteous or simply better than those around him. Why would our tradition, which praises kindness and humility, seem to downplay the one man who saved humanity? Drawing on a 1964 teaching from the Lubavitcher Rebbe, Rabbi Bernath reframed the question: the Sages weren’t diminishing Noach, they were elevating him. Noach wasn’t perfect. He doubted. He hesitated. He stumbled. But he built an ark anyway. And that’s precisely why he’s the hero for the rest of us, for the ordinary, flawed people who still try to do good in a noisy, cynical world. Noach reminds us that you don’t need to be Abraham or Moses to make a difference. You just need to build your ark, an island of sanity, compassion, and moral courage, right where you are. Key Takeaways: Imperfect Righteousness Is Still Righteousness. The Torah’s praise of Noach is not about spiritual perfection, but about moral persistence. Doing good in a corrupt world is itself greatness. The Power of Ordinary People. Noach’s story teaches that world-changing moments often come from those who don’t feel extraordinary, just steady souls who keep showing up. Struggle Is Part of the Journey. Unlike “cookie-cutter” saints, real people wrestle with doubt, temptation, and fatigue. Noach’s humanity is his heroism. Build Your Ark. In a world flooded with noise and confusion, our job is to create spaces of kindness, faith, and integrity, shelters of light in turbulent waters. Every Small Act Matters. Like the girl tossing starfish back into the sea, we can’t save the whole world, but we can change someone’s world. Support the show Got your own question for Rabbi Bernath?

Send us a text In this morning’s class, Rabbi Bernath explored one of the most profound paradoxes in the Torah, the two seemingly contradictory accounts of Adam and Eve’s creation. Far from a textual flaw, this duality encodes the deepest truths about relationships, individuality, and spiritual evolution. The first creation describes Adam and Eve as one, a fused, bi-gendered being. The second describes their separation. From this, Rabbi Bernath revealed a timeless model: every relationship, whether between man and woman or humanity and G-d, must pass through three stages, oneness, separation, and reunion. Through this lens, the Genesis narrative becomes not ancient history but a living blueprint. It explains the evolution of human intimacy, feminism, secularism, and the search for Divine connection in the modern age, showing that we are now entering the third stage: the age of chosen unity , love and faith born not of obligation, but of conscious choice. Key Takeaways: Genesis isn’t contradiction, it’s choreography. The two accounts of creation mirror the cosmic dance between unity and individuality, dependence and independence, G-d and humankind. True love is chosen, not imposed. Adam and Eve’s separation allowed them to rediscover each other voluntarily, the foundation of mature, lasting relationships. History mirrors the Garden. From religious dependence, to secular independence, humanity now yearns for integration, faith and freedom intertwined. Marriage is self-discovery. In loving another, we reunite with the missing part of ourselves; separation was never punishment, but preparation for deeper connection. The third stage is now. Our generation is called to embody integration, where spirituality and modernity, masculinity and femininity, body and soul harmonize again. #Genesis #Kabbalah #Judaism #Jewish #adamandeve #feminism #Faith #marriage #Relationships #Unity #Sprirital #Bible #BibleStudy #TorahPortion #TorahLessons #Torah #torahpsychology Support the show Got your own question for Rabbi Bernath?

Send us a text In The Dance of Return , Rabbi Yisroel Bernath delivers a moving Simchat Torah sermon celebrating the miraculous return of the hostages, a moment when prophecy, pain, and prayer converge into pure joy. He draws a profound parallel between this homecoming and the essence of Simchat Torah, a holiday where Jews dance not because of ritual, but because of belonging. Rabbi Bernath reminds us that Jewish joy cannot be taken, it is divine, defiant, and eternal. Through the story of Isaac’s hidden treasure and the timeless circle of Torah dance, he calls every Jew, believer and skeptic alike, to join the dance of unity, gratitude, and faith reborn. Key Takeaways: A Living Prophecy: Jeremiah’s words, “Your children shall return to their borders” come alive as we witness the hostages’ return, transforming tears of despair into tears of gratitude. The Essence of Simchat Torah: Unlike other festivals tied to specific mitzvot, Simchat Torah’s commandment is simply to rejoice . We dance with closed Torah scrolls because joy transcends knowledge, it’s about belonging, not perfection. Eternal Jewish Joy: The attack that began on Simchat Torah was meant to steal Jewish joy, yet this very year, that joy is reclaimed. Jewish joy is not circumstantial; it’s the pulse of our people. The Treasure Within: Like Isaac discovering the treasure under his own oven, we rediscover that the greatest strength and hope lie not in distant places, but within ourselves and our faith. A Call to Dance: Rabbi Bernath invites everyone, regardless of belief or pain, to dance with Heaven itself. This Simchat Torah, every step is a declaration: Am Yisrael Chai. #hostages #Judaism #Jewish #hostagesreturn #jewishunity #simchatorah #AmYisraelChai #Faith #resilience #Israel #IsraelHamas Support the show Got your own question for Rabbi Bernath?

Send us a text When Rabbi Yisroel Bernath spotted a superyacht with an infinity pool merging into the sky, it sparked a journey through one of the most powerful Talmudic stories, Rabbi Akiva’s “sukkah on a ship.” From that image of faith floating on waves, this class dives into the timeless tension between fragility and faith, exploring what it means to build Jewish life and joy even when the ground beneath us feels unstable. Through stories that span from ancient Rome to post-Holocaust Budapest, Rabbi Bernath reveals the unbreakable resilience of Jewish spirit and the eternal power of ideas that can’t be burned, silenced, or washed away. Takeaways: Faith in Motion: Even when life feels unstable, your sukkah, your faith, your values, your light, can stand strong. Resilience Is Our Heritage: From Rabbi Akiva’s ship to a siddur saved from the ashes, Jewish history proves that our strength comes from rebuilding, not retreating. Ideas Outlive Empires: The Romans burned scrolls, but not the words. Power fades; purpose endures. Your Sukkah Is a Statement: Every mitzvah you do in today’s world is an act of defiance against despair and a declaration of hope. We Are the Calm in the Storm: Our task is to build joy, faith, and community even when the waves rise because that’s where holiness truly lives. #sukkot #resilience #sukkah #sukkah2025 #sukkot2025 #sukkos #rabbigamliel #rabbiakiva #Hope #HopeAndResilience #JewishIdentity #Talmud #LightOverDarkness #joy #JewishHistory Support the show Got your own question for Rabbi Bernath?

Send us a text Rabbi Yisroel Bernath recorded this sermon before Rosh Hashana as he was preparing and we are sharing it with you... of course it’s nothing close to the magic of Rosh Hashana at Chabad NDG in Montreal. Rabbi Yisroel Bernath’s Rosh Hashanah sermon reminds us that the world doesn’t change through headlines or massive movements alone, it turns on small hinges. From Newton’s apple to Rosa Parks’ quiet defiance, from Elkanah’s changed walking route to Raoul Wallenberg’s forged passports, history is reshaped by individuals who cared enough to act. Each of us is that “breeze” a gentle but decisive force nudging another soul toward light, dignity, and hope. The shofar calls us not to despair at the scale of the world’s darkness, but to rise with courage, to see that every mitzvah matters, and to live as though even one small act can tilt the future. This Rosh Hashanah, the call is clear: be the breeze that shifts the course of another’s life. Key Takeaways Small Acts Matter : World-changing moments often begin with the smallest gestures, a smile, a word of encouragement, an invitation to Shabbat. History Turns on the Individual : From scientists to prophets, seamstresses to diplomats, one person’s choice has often redirected the course of nations. Jewish Legacy of Influence : The story of Elkanah and Shmuel teaches that our steps, words, and presence ripple far beyond what we see. Moral Courage is Contagious : Rosa Parks’ bus seat and Wallenberg’s forged passports remind us that courage inspires movements. The Shofar’s Call : Rosh Hashanah summons us to battle despair with action, to hear the call of responsibility, and to know that every soul counts. #RoshHashana #RoshHashanah #HIghHolidays #Judaism #Rabbi #yisroelbernath #chabad #Antisemitism #Jewish #Jewishfuture #JewishIdentity #resilience #Sermon Support the show Got your own question for Rabbi Bernath?

Send us a text Rabbi Yisroel Bernath recorded this sermon before Rosh Hashana as he was preparing and we are sharing it with you... of course its nothing close to the magic of Rosh Hashana at Chabad NDG in Montreal. In this Rosh Hashanah sermon, Rabbi Yisroel Bernath weaves humor, Torah, and Jewish resilience into a message of hope and renewal. Beginning with laughter, he acknowledges the fears weighing on the Jewish heart today, rising antisemitism, uncertainty, and the heaviness of history. But he reminds us that the Jewish story begins not with despair, but with laughter: the birth of Yitzchak to Abraham and Sarah. Through a transformation of identity and vision, G-d teaches them, and us, that our destiny is not defined by the past but pulled by the promise of the future. The sermon moves through stories of Jewish survival, historical cathedrals, personal anecdotes, and Sheldon Adelson’s shoes in Jerusalem, all to paint a vivid picture: we are builders of a spiritual architecture that spans generations. Each mitzvah is a chisel, each act of faith a brick, each Jew a builder. And above all, our answer to fear and hatred has always been joy. Key Takeaways Identity Shapes Destiny Abraham and Sarah became parents only after G-d changed their names, showing us that how we see ourselves changes how we live. History Pulled by Promise, Not Pushed by the Past Jewish survival isn’t logical, it’s miraculous. Our story isn’t driven by yesterday’s pain but by tomorrow’s promise. Laughter as Our Legacy The first Jewish child was named Yitzchak, laughter, teaching us that joy and hope are the foundation of Jewish life. Generational Builders Like the cathedrals built over centuries, Jewish life is a project carried forward by every generation. Each mitzvah is part of a vast spiritual architecture. Joy as Resistance When the world says to give up, we laugh. When it says to despair, we believe. Our answer to hatred has always been love, laughter, and building. #RoshHashana #RoshHashanah #HIghHolidays #Judaism #Rabbi #yisroelbernath #chabad #Antisemitism #Jewish #Jewishfuture #JewishIdentity #resilience #Sermon Support the show Got your own question for Rabbi Bernath?

Send us a text Sometimes it takes a crisis to stop us in our tracks and ask: Who am I? What kind of spouse am I? What kind of person am I becoming? On Rosh Hashanah, Judaism invites us to ask these very questions. And at the heart of the holiday is a mysterious, beloved prayer: Hayom Harat Olam , “Today the world is born.” But did you know? The same phrase appears in the Book of Jeremiah with an opposite meaning, not birth, but never being born at all. Why would our sages choose such a paradox for the High Holidays? In this inspiring High Holiday sermon, Rabbi Yisroel Bernath takes us on a journey through: The prophet Jeremiah’s cry of despair The Netziv’s life-changing decision as a child Michelangelo’s challenge to Raphael: Amplius ,Think bigger! The shofar’s call for authentic self-expression The hidden Jewish spark that even Soviet oppression couldn’t extinguish This Rosh Hashanah, the shofar asks each of us: Will you live as an echo, or will you give birth to your true self? Key Takeaways Rosh Hashanah is not only the birthday of the world, it’s the birthday of your world. Each year, we can choose to start anew. Harat Olam has two meanings: remaining unborn potential or becoming a living expression of your G-d-given gifts. The shofar rejects echoes … it calls us to live authentically, not as faint imitations of who we’re meant to be. Amplius, Think bigger! Don’t live small when your canvas is vast. Every Jew has a hidden spark … no matter how distant, it can be awakened in a single moment of courage, connection, or faith. #RoshHashanah #Judaism #Jewish #RoshHashana #chabad #newyear #Shofar #hayomharatolam #inspiration #Teshuvah #teshuva #jewishsermon #jewishnewyear #Elul #YomKippur Support the show Got your own question for Rabbi Bernath?

Send us a text In this class, Rabbi Bernath reframed the very idea of confession in Judaism. While most people think of confession as listing sins and failures, the Torah introduces Vidui Ma’aser , a “confession” where the farmer proudly declares to G-d that he has fulfilled every detail of the mitzvah of tithing. Why would the Torah call this a confession? Because true spiritual growth begins not by beating ourselves down, but by acknowledging the good we’ve done. When we confess our strengths, we build the confidence and clarity to face our shortcomings without despair. Confession, then, isn’t meant to break us, it’s meant to fix us. It’s not about shame; it’s about uncovering the truth that we are divine souls who sometimes fall short but are always capable of rising higher. By celebrating our goodness first, we create the spiritual courage to transform our failures into growth. Key Takeaways Confession in Judaism isn’t only about failure : The Torah’s “tithing confession” is actually a declaration of success. Celebrate your victories : By verbalizing what you’ve done right, you strengthen your belief in your own holiness and capacity. Healthy confession = owning both sides : “I am good and capable, and that’s why this mistake doesn’t fit me, and I can do better.” Encouragement inspires growth : Just as children thrive when parents highlight strengths before weaknesses, we too change more when we see ourselves through the lens of goodness. Chassidic joy in confession : Like the Baal Shem Tov’s cantor, we can sing our confessions, not out of arrogance or denial, but because cleansing the soul is a joyful act of uncovering diamonds beneath the dirt. Confession challenge : In the next 24 hours, “confess” something good you’ve done, out loud, to yourself or someone you trust. Let it remind you who you really are. #Judaism #Jewish #chabad #Rabbi #Kabbalah #Torah #TorahLessons #TorahPortion #torahwisdom #BibleStudy #Bible #confession #goodness #psychology #baalshemtov #KiTavo #Teshuvah #ViduiMaaser #JewishGrowth Support the show Got your own question for Rabbi Bernath?

Send us a text In this week’s Torah portion, Ki Seitzei , we learn the law of the firstborn: even if the firstborn son comes from the “unloved” wife, he must be given the double portion. Rabbi Yisroel Bernath explored the deeper Kabbalistic meaning behind this law, revealing that the “beloved” and “unloved” wives are metaphors for two sides of our soul — the inspired, G-d-loving self and the struggling, conflicted self. The Torah teaches that our greatest spiritual “firstborn” often emerges from the parts of ourselves we might despise. By working with our struggles, we can produce a “double portion” of light and blessing, more precious to G-d than what comes easily. Key Takeaways Two Souls Within: We each have a “beloved” side (our Divine soul) and an “unloved” side (our animal soul) — both are part of our relationship with G-d. The Power of Struggle: G-d delights not only in saintly ease but especially in the victories that come from our inner battles. A Double Portion: What feels despised in us can be the source of double blessing when transformed. Self-Compassion: Instead of hating our struggles, we can embrace them as the very reason we were created ( Tanya ch. 27). Messianic Promise: In the era of Moshiach, the hidden “firstborn” light of our struggles will be revealed in full splendor. #Jewish #Judaism #Torah #TorahPortion #TorahLessons #BibleStudy #Bible #FirstbornRights #AnimalSoul #Divine #DivineSoul #KiSeitzei #KiTeitzei #Moshiach #chabad #chassidus #Kabbalah #Rabbi Support the show Got your own question for Rabbi Bernath?

Send us a text Rabbi Yisroel Bernath unpacks a fascinating teaching: why does G-d reject the idea of a single-stone altar? At first glance it’s just about ancient rituals, but the deeper message is timeless. Real faith and real life can’t be built on “one stone” one path, one perspective, one style. True oneness comes from many stones joined together. This class explores how individuality and diversity aren’t just tolerated by G-d, they are essential to His plan. Key Takeaways Oneness ≠ sameness : G-d is One, but He created a world of diversity. The danger of single-stone thinking : When we make faith, truth, or life only in our image, we exclude everyone else. The power of many stones : Each person carries a unique piece of truth, and together we make the divine symphony whole. Celebrating difference : Authentic spirituality means honoring the uniqueness of others, not fearing it. Practical takeaway : Stop trying to make others fit your mold; instead, see how their “stone” adds to the altar of life. #diversity #Judaism #Jewish #Torah #TorahPortion #TorahLessons #BibleStudy #oneness #individuality #Unity #Faith #community #pluralism #spiritualgrowth #beloning #community Support the show Got your own question for Rabbi Bernath?

Send us a text The 5-Step Program of Spiritual Courtship, Engagement, Marriage, Honeymoon, and Real Life: Discovering the Divine Romance in Our Lives In this sermon, Rabbi Yisroel Bernath explores the deep and mystical relationship between G-d and the Jewish people, likened to a sacred marriage. Drawing from Kabbalistic and Chassidic teachings, Rabbi Bernath delves into the spiritual phases of this divine union, paralleling it with the milestones of human relationships: courtship, engagement, marriage, honeymoon, and the day-to-day reality of married life. Through the lens of the High Holiday season, this episode offers a journey of rejuvenating our connection with G-d, culminating in the ultimate intimacy that shapes our everyday existence. Takeaways: Courtship with G-d: The month of Elul as a time of divine dating, where G-d meets us in our natural state, inviting us to connect authentically. Engagement Proposal: Rosh Hashanah as the moment of commitment, where G-d proposes a deeper relationship, and we respond with the cry of the Shofar. Marriage Ceremony: Yom Kippur as the day of divine union, where we fast, atone, and solidify our eternal bond with G-d. Celebration and Intimacy: The festivals of Sukkot, Shemini Atzeret, and Simchat Torah as the celebration and intimate consummation of our relationship with the Divine. Real-Life Relationship: The month of Cheshvan as the time to nurture our ongoing relationship with G-d in the everyday moments, discovering the sacred in the ordinary.

Send us a text On the night of the 9th of Av, our ancestors cried tears of despair—tears the Talmud calls “ בכיה של חנם ” , baseless weeping. G-d’s response wasn’t punitive, it was prophetic: “You wept in vain, and this day will be one of tears for generations.” But what were they really crying about? And why do we still cry? This class explores the roots of generational trauma in the Jewish psyche, from the fear of the spies to the quiet despair echoing through the Jewish community today. We'll dive deep into the psychological and spiritual scars left by centuries of exile, oppression, and self-doubt and discover how fear can shape reality more powerfully than facts. Using Torah, Talmud, Chassidut, and modern psychological insight, we’ll unpack how vain tears become real sorrow—and how breaking the cycle starts with reclaiming our Divine power. From elephants in the circus to Harvard psychology experiments, this session will challenge you to reframe your internal narrative, discard inherited limitations, and begin the long-awaited journey from grief to redemption. KEY TAKEAWAYS: The Origin of Tisha B’Av: Understand the deeper meaning behind the “vain tears” of our ancestors and why this night became one of generational grief. Trauma as Inheritance: Discover how Jewish despair today is often rooted not in current events, but in stories, beliefs, and fears passed down through generations. The Self-Fulfilling Prophecy: Learn how our perception of self shapes our destiny—and why seeing ourselves as grasshoppers ensures others will too. From Powerlessness to Purpose: Gain tools to shift from victimhood to empowerment, and how G-d never asks us to face a challenge without first giving us the strength to overcome it. Healing the Diaspora Spirit: Explore how our generation can begin to break the cycle of inherited fear and transform Tisha B’Av into a festival of light. #TishaBav #VainTears #GenerationalTrauma #Bible #BibleStudy #spies #TorahLessons #TorahPortion #Torah #Devarim #Deutoronomy #inneregypt Support the show Got your own question for Rabbi Bernath?

Send us a text This class explores one of the Torah’s most striking rebukes, Moses’ fiery confrontation with the tribes of Reuben and Gad and uncovers why they chose silence over self-defense. Through this encounter and a powerful Chassidic story about the Sefas Emes, Rabbi Bernath examines why we often recoil at criticism and how to reframe it as a holy opportunity for growth. From Moses to modern marriage, from a misunderstood heretic to the Maggid of Mezritch, we dive into the soul’s secret defense system and how to disarm it with self-worth, humility, and Chassidic wisdom. Takeaways: The power of silence: Sometimes, it’s more spiritually transformative to listen to criticism than to justify ourselves, especially when it comes from someone wise. Criticism doesn’t define you: When you know your core worth, you can absorb criticism without collapsing. Not all rebuke is rejection: Moses’ rebuke was intense, but it came from leadership and love. Marriage tip: Your spouse’s critique might not be a judgment, it might be a chance to expand your perspective. The Maggid’s wisdom: True self-esteem is found when neither praise nor criticism defines your value. Criticism is holy rain: It should nourish, not erode. But to receive it, we need rooted self-worth. #Bible #Torah #criticism #TorahPortion #TorahLessons #BibleStudy #Moses #selfesteem #God #self-esteem #sefasemes #maggid #solomonmaimon #humility #personalgrowth #Spiritual #spiritualleadership #emotionalresilience #torahwisdom Support the show Got your own question for Rabbi Bernath?

Send us a text In this eye-opening session, Rabbi Yisroel Bernath explores one of the most profound and misunderstood topics of all time: What is G-d? Moving beyond simplistic childhood images of a supernatural sky-being, we delve into Jewish, Chassidic, philosophical, and even scientific perspectives on the Divine. Drawing from thinkers like Einstein and the Alter Rebbe, this class gently unpacks a paradoxical truth: G-d is not less than personal, but also infinitely more than any person. Whether you’re a believer, skeptic, or somewhere in between, this is a class that will stretch your mind and open your heart. Takeaways: Not All “G-ds" Are the Same The God that many reject may not be the G-d Torah and Kabbalah actually describe. Beyond Supernatural vs. Natural Judaism sees G-d not as a supernatural being outside nature, but as the source and essence of all existence, both within and beyond nature. Personal and Infinite G-d is not a person, but also not less than personal. The Divine is both the cosmic Author and the intimate Listener. Language & Metaphor Matter The Torah uses varied metaphors to relate to G-d, each revealing a facet, none capturing the whole. G-d Is Experienced, Not Just Explained You may not "prove" G-d like a theorem—but you can encounter G-d in awe, in kindness, in Torah, and in the quiet moments of the soul. #God #theology #thegodquestion #chassidus #Kabbalah #chabad #Spinoza #einstein #jewishphilosophy #Faith #personalgod #infinite #soul Support the show Got your own question for Rabbi Bernath?

Send us a text In this heart-open, mind-stretching class, Rabbi Yisroel Bernath dives headfirst into one of the most profound questions ever asked: Who wrote the Torah and what do we mean by G-d? Sparked by a challenge from Ilana, a thoughtful soul who just "won the raffle" and then handed Rabbi Bernath some of the hardest theological questions he's faced, this class isn't a debate, it’s a bridge. Drawing from Torah, Talmud, Rambam, Tanya, Harari, Einstein, Spinoza, and Chassidic mystics, we explore traditional belief, academic scholarship, and the honest soul-searching that sits between them. Is the Torah a divine blueprint or a human masterpiece? Or… could it be both? Together, we walk a path between Sinai and the seminar room, from ancient revelation to modern doubt and discover that sometimes, the questions themselves are the invitation to a deeper relationship with truth. Key Takeaways: Traditional Belief Holds Depth : Torah mi-Sinai means Moses recorded divine revelation over 40 years. It's not simplistic, it’s layered and deeply rooted in Jewish collective memory. Modern Scholarship Brings Honest Challenges : Thinkers like Harari argue that the Torah was assembled over centuries, reflecting political and social needs. These critiques must be addressed, not ignored. Kabbalah and Chassidus Provide a Bridge : Divine revelation doesn’t exclude human expression. The Torah flowed through Moses’ voice and personality, G-d worked with human vessels. Assumptions Shape Interpretation : Believers and skeptics alike interpret the same data through different axioms. Acknowledging this fosters respectful dialogue rather than defensiveness. The Torah’s Endurance Is Itself a Testament : Its moral vision, power to unite, and enduring relevance across time and culture hint at something more than human genius, it points toward the Divine. This Is Not About “Winning” an Argument : It’s about honesty, humility, and the courage to explore big questions together. The Torah Is a Living Document : Beyond history or philosophy, Torah continues to speak —not just inform, but transform . That may be its greatest proof of all. #Torah #God #Judaism #sinai #Moses #Divinerevelation #Documentaryhypothesis #YuvalNoahHarari #Kabbalah #Jewishtradition #BiblicalCrticism #Tanya #Spinoza #chassidus #Faith #theology Support the show Got your own question for Rabbi Bernath?

Send us a text Purchase a raffle ticket here (there's 32 hours left!) http://www.charidy.com/ndg - I hope you are well. This Wednesday marks something deeply personal for me and Sara. Exactly 20 years ago , we arrived in Montreal with a few suitcases, a tiny apartment… and one big, beating dream: To build a Jewish home for anyone who needed one. Not just a synagogue. Not just programs. But a place filled with warmth, love, and belonging for every soul. In those early days, we ran school workshops and young professional events, saying yes to every opportunity to bring a little more light into the world. And then 17 years ago, we opened our own little centre in NDG. That dream — it grew. Today, thanks to the incredible community we’ve built together, that small seed has become something beautiful: -JMontreal our matchmaking service (212 engagements and counting!) -A Jewish centre where everyone is welcome. -Montreal’s only Jewish shelter for young adults in crisis -Mental health and life coaching for those struggling -A hospitable oasis for Jewish Students facing anti-semitism at Concordia. Some of you know me from Instagram or the Kosher Love documentary. But this… this is the heart of my life’s work. And now, we’re dreaming even bigger. We want to grow the shelter. Support more young people. Make more matches. Create more space for joy, healing, and Jewish connection. But we can’t do it alone. That’s why I’m writing to you today. This Wednesday, our 20-year anniversary is also the last day to buy a raffle ticket . Your ticket is more than a donation. It’s a vote of confidence. It says: "I believe in this. I want this to grow." And yes, you can also win big! Buy your raffle ticket here From the bottom of my heart, thank you for being part of this journey. Let’s build the next 20 years — together.

Send us a text In this deep and soulful journey through Parshat Chukas, Rabbi Yisroel Bernath unpacks one of the most perplexing and powerful moments in the Torah: the copper snake on a pole. Why did G-d command Moses to use the very symbol of suffering, the snake, as a healing instrument? What does it mean that people had to look up at the snake to be cured? Through timeless Jewish wisdom, vulnerable personal insight, and psychological depth, Rabbi Bernath explores the mystery of pain, the challenge of resilience, and the spiritual art of transforming darkness into light. You’ll walk away with a new perspective on your own struggles and perhaps, a new path to healing. Key Takeaways: Transformation, Not Avoidance: True healing doesn’t come from avoiding our pain, but from facing it with courage and elevating it with meaning. The Snake Above vs. the Snake Below: The same experience can be seen from a higher or lower perspective. One brings despair; the other, depth. The Poison Is the Cure: Just like antivenom is made from venom, your healing may emerge from the very thing that once hurt you. Don’t Run, Look Up: When we stop running from the “snakes” in our lives and look upward—to G-d, to our higher selves—we discover the blessing buried in the bite. Every Crisis Holds a Blessing: Like Jacob wrestling the angel, we can say to our struggle: “I will not let you go until you bless me.” That’s Jewish resilience. You Are Sacred Even in Pain: Sometimes the deepest truth is not an answer to your question, but the awareness that your soul is Divine, loved, and never alone. #healing #Judaism #Jewish #coppersnake #healingthroughpain #TorahPortion #TorahLessons #Torah #torahpsychology #JewishResiliance #struggle #Redemption #divinepurpose #traumatotransformation #trauma #God #snake #parshatchukat #spritualgrowth Support the show Got your own question for Rabbi Bernath?

Send us a text In this gripping class, Rabbi Yisroel Bernath delves into the tragic and turbulent rebellion led by Korach, Dathan, Abiram, and On ben Peles against Moses and Aaron. The narrative unveils not just a mutiny, but a masterclass in leadership, humility, and boundless love for even the most stubborn opponents. Through an exploration of four key episodes involving Dathan and Abiram, Rabbi Bernath uncovers their long history of discord and defiance. Yet the class’s emotional apex comes with Moses’ unexpected final act: rising to personally appeal to his bitterest enemies, even after G-d commanded their separation. Why? Because Moses could never give up on the potential for peace—even with those who never sought it. Drawing from the Lubavitcher Rebbe’s insights on Parshas Korach, this class challenges us to ask: When is the pursuit of unity too much? And what makes someone truly worthy of leadership? Takeaways: True Leadership Is Relentless Love: Moses teaches us that real leadership isn’t about titles or power, it’s about never giving up on people, even those who oppose you. Some Quarrels Are Lifelong—Still, We Try: Dathan and Abiram weren’t new to conflict; they had a history of opposition. Yet Moses still pursued peace, one last time. “Do Not Keep Up a Quarrel” Isn’t Just a Nice Idea—It’s a Lifesaving One: The Talmud’s teaching, rooted in Moses’ actions, reminds us that unity is sacred—even if it means swallowing our pride. The Power of One Final Attempt: “Moses stood up and went to Dathan and Abiram.” That one verse becomes a model for all of us: Don’t assume it’s too late to make peace. We Each Carry a Spark of Moses: As the Tanya teaches, every Jew carries a part of Moses’ soul. That means we each have the capacity to rise above ego and reach out in peace. Peace Doesn’t Mean Passivity: Pursuing peace doesn’t mean tolerating abuse, it means knowing when to fight injustice and when to humble yourself for healing. #Torah #Moses #Judaism #Bible #BibleStudy #Korach #ParshatKorach #humility #Rebbe #mosesleadership #Peace #TorahLessons #TorahPortion Support the show Got your own question for Rabbi Bernath?

Send us a text On the night of Tisha B’Av, the Jewish people cried out of fear, not from a real threat, but from a perceived one. That night became a tragic turning point in our history, not because of a divine punishment, but because fear itself became the seed of generations of sorrow. This class explores the deeper meaning of those "vain tears" through Torah, psychology, and metaphor. From the self-fulfilling prophecy of the spies, to Harvard's famous "Rosenthal Experiment," to the chained circus elephant who forgot her strength, we see how fear and self-image can imprison entire generations. But we are no longer that generation. We are living in a time of healing and empowerment. This Tisha B’Av, we are called to rewrite the script. To cry no more. To rise with resolve. To finally break free and bring healing, light, and redemption to our world. Key Takeaways: Fear isn’t always logical, but it’s always powerful. Even miracles won’t help if we don’t believe in ourselves. Vain tears become real pain. When we cry over imagined powerlessness, we invite genuine suffering, because we surrender our G-d-given strength. We see ourselves as grasshoppers and so does the world. The way we perceive ourselves shapes how others treat us. Belief creates reality. Like elephants chained by false memories, we stay stuck not because we are weak, but because we think we are. This is the age of healing. We’re not grasshoppers. We’re not victims. We are a generation with tools, strength, and clarity. It’s time to remember who we are . Tisha B’Av will be transformed. With courage, truth, and unity, even our day of weeping will become a day of joy, with the coming of Moshiach. #fear #healing #Jewish #Judaism #shlach #TorahPortion #Torah #TorahLessons #Bible #BibleStudy #TishaBav #Spirituality #Moshiach #Spiritual #lubavitch #RabbiWisdom Support the show Got your own question for Rabbi Bernath?

Send us a text In this weeks class, Rabbi Yisroel Bernath reveals the Torah’s timeless wisdom for navigating today’s anxious, high-speed world. Rooted in a single verse from Parshat Behaalotecha, we uncover how the cloud that guided the Jewish people through the desert wasn’t just GPS, it was G-d’s embrace, offering a blueprint for emotional resilience. Drawing on deep Talmudic insight, the story of the Mishkan, and modern-day inspiration like the heroism of Natan Sharansky, this class is a journey into the eye of the storm… where true serenity lives. Takeaways: * The "Magic Pill" for Stress: A single Torah verse can reframe your entire emotional state. * G-d’s Embrace Is Constant: Just like a baby in its mother’s arms, we can move through chaos and feel held. * Work ≠ Work: The Torah’s definition of melachah (creative labor) holds spiritual secrets for how to balance doing and being. * The Sanctuary Within: Whether building or dismantling, stillness comes from knowing you’re in the same Divine space. * Tehillim as a Lifeline: Learn how Psalms became the spiritual oxygen for Natan Sharansky—and how they can be for you, too. * Don’t Just Know the Psalm.

Send us a text In this deeply moving and timely class, Rabbi Bernath opens with a heartfelt prayer for the victims of the Boulder attack and a reminder that silence in the face of evil is complicity. From the courtroom of Judgment at Nuremberg to the Torah portion of Naso, we journey through history, law, and soul. We explore the legacy of Joseph, alone, enslaved, and tempted and how a single vision of his father reminded him: One action changes everything. Joseph, who kept Shabbat even in Egypt, is rewarded not with rest but with purpose, his descendant offering a sacrifice on Shabbat itself, transforming a personal act into a communal revelation. With wisdom from the Lubavitcher Rebbe and reflections on our divine spark, we are reminded that every choice we make is a nuclear reaction of holiness. We are not small. We are not powerless. We are G-d’s partners in redeeming this world. Key Takeaways We begin with a prayer for those wounded and shaken by the hate-fueled Anti-Jewish violence in Boulder. We must never grow numb to evil nor dismiss the power of standing up for what's right. Moral failure begins the moment we excuse the first injustice. As seen in Nuremberg and echoed in our lives, passivity is complicity. Joseph’s strength came not from Torah laws, but from internalizing his worth. His vision of Jacob, representing all of humanity reminded him that his actions mattered deeply. You are not a chemical reaction, you are a nuclear reaction. One spark of holiness from you can ripple outward infinitely. Keeping Shabbat in Egypt wasn’t just ritual—it was a declaration: Even in exile, I matter. Even in isolation, my light changes the world. You are the world. As the Lubavitcher Rebbe taught: One human, one deed, one moment, can shake the heavens and awaken redemption. #Jewish #Judaism #Bible #BibleStudy #Shabbat #Nuremberg #MoralCourage #humandignity #Shabbat #Joseph #TorahLessons #TorahPortion #Torah #Rebbe #LubavitcherRebbe #jewishethics Support the show Got your own question for Rabbi Bernath?

Send us a text In this special post-Shabbat sermon recorded for Shavuot, Rabbi Yisroel Bernath takes us on a profound journey through the remarkable history of the Sassoon Codex and the legendary Crown of Aram Tzova. Woven into this tale of ink and parchment is a modern miracle: the voice of a mother reaching her daughter in captivity, reminding us that the Torah is not just a relic, but a living pulse of our people. From ancient scribes in Tiberias to secret hiding spots in Aleppo, from destruction to redemption, from loss to legacy, Rabbi Bernath reveals how the Jewish People have never just studied the Torah, we’ve carried it. We’ve risked our lives to protect it. And today, as we stand at the foot of Sinai once more, we are called to do the same. Key Takeaways: The Torah is Not History… It’s Memory: Unlike history, which belongs to the past, memory shapes the present. The Torah is our collective memory and it calls us to live with responsibility and purpose. The Crown is More Than a Book: The story of the Crown of Aram Tzova reflects the Jewish people’s fierce dedication to Torah. It symbolizes dignity, identity, and spiritual sovereignty. Miracles Happen When We Stay Connected: Agam Berger’s story reminds us that even in darkness, light can pierce through. The Torah isn’t just letters on parchment, it’s a lifeline, a soul-connector. Torah is Our Crown—But We Must Guard It: Just as communities once locked the Crown in an iron chest, we too must fiercely protect our values, our faith, and our unity. Shavuot is Our Coronation Day: Every year, we place the crown back on our heads. Torah is not a heritage we visit, it’s a legacy we live . #Shavuot #shavuos #Jewish #aleppocodex #sassooncodex #Torah #Sermon #Bible #jewishunity #Judaism #JewishHistory #jewishstories Support the show Got your own question for Rabbi Bernath?

Send us a text What if the future of Judaism depended not on scholars or sages, but on the sippy cups and crayon-covered siddurim of our children? This powerful class dives into one of the most striking Midrashim about the giving of the Torah: when G-d demanded a guarantor, our ancestors suggested the elders, the prophets, the leaders and were rejected. Only when they offered the children did G-d say: Now we have a deal. But why children? Why not the tzaddikim, the scholars, the sages? And what does it mean that our children were the only "acceptable" security on the Torah? Together, we’ll explore a deeply moving interpretation shared by the Lubavitcher Rebbe in 5712 (1952), tracing how this Midrash contains the blueprint for Jewish continuity and our most urgent modern-day call to action. Through Torah, history, poetry, and tears, this class reminds us: if we want Judaism tomorrow, we must invest in our children today. KEY TAKEAWAYS: G-d Doesn’t Want Retirement Religion: Torah isn’t just for the nostalgic elderly or even for the rabbis, it’s for every Jew, of every age and stage. Children Are the True Guarantors: When young hearts taste the sweetness of Torah, it becomes a lifelong imprint—and they end up teaching us . Jewish Education is National Security: Teachers are the true defenders of our people. Want to protect the Jewish future? Start by elevating Jewish schools. From Silence to Ruckus: After the Holocaust, there were no children left to make noise in shul. Today, we must cherish every giggle, every running step, every whispered Shema because that is the sound of eternity. Show Up at Sinai—Again: The custom of bringing children to hear the Ten Commandments on Shavuos is not symbolic it’s covenantal. Without them, we can’t receive the Torah anew. #Judaism #Shavuot #Jewish #jewishholiday #chabad #holocaust #Rebbe #Torah #shavuos #jewisheducation #therebbe #sinai #Torah #TorahLessons #Jewishfuture Support the show Got your own question for Rabbi Bernath?

Send us a text In the aftermath of October 7, Jews around the world experienced a surge of emotion and identity—an outpouring of Jewish adrenaline. But as the energy fades, the real question emerges: what does it actually mean to live a meaningful Jewish life? Rabbi Bernath draws from Dan Senor’s "State of World Jewry" Speech and 92Y last week, A.B. Yehoshua’s challenge to diaspora Jews, and the timeless answers offered by our prophets and sages—from King David to the Rebbe. He reminds us that Jewish life isn’t about where you live, but how you live: with integrity, with mitzvos, with visible Jewish pride. Rooted in this week’s Parshah, the sermon invites us to reclaim the mitzvos that affirm who we are in a world trying to forget us—and reminds us that the most radical act of Jewish survival is living Jewish every single day. Key Takeaways: October 8th Jews Need More than Adrenaline: Emotional response to tragedy must evolve into sustainable Jewish living—rooted in action, not just feeling. Geography Isn’t Identity: Living in Israel doesn’t automatically make one Jewish in practice. Living Jewishly—through mitzvot and moral clarity—does. Our Prophets Knew the Secret: King David, Isaiah, Micah, and Chavakuk each distilled Judaism to its ethical essence, but only because ritual was then a given. In exile, the inverse is true—we must rebuild our ritual identity. The Rebbe’s Mitzvah Campaign Echoes the Prophets: Strategic mitzvot like tefillin, Shabbat candles, and kosher aren’t just practices—they are declarations of identity. We Must Lead Jewish Lives—Loudly and Proudly: In today’s world, being visibly Jewish is an act of courage and continuity. This is our generation’s mission. #JewishIdentity #Jewish #Judaism #October7 #October7th #DanSenor #mitzvah #mitzvahcampaign #ABYehoshua #LivingJewish #KingDavid #TorahLessons #BibleStudy #Bible #Exile #JewishResiliance Support the show Got your own question for Rabbi Bernath?

Send us a text In the shadow of the tragic murder of two young Israeli diplomats, Yaron Lischinsky and Sarah Lynn Milgrim , who dedicated their lives to peace, we confront the heart-wrenching questions: Are we still the Chosen People? Can we still believe in humanity when humanity seems to fall apart? This week’s Torah portion, Bechukotai , addresses blessings and brutal curses, followed by the surprising laws of erchin , evaluating human worth. From this strange juxtaposition, Chassidic masters draw a powerful truth: even after unspeakable loss, the value of a human soul remains eternal and divine. Through stories of survival and sacred resistance, from Auschwitz to Washington D.C. we rediscover that our calling is not diminished by darkness, but rather revealed by it. This class is dedicated to the memory of Yaron and Sarah, may G-d avenge their blood. Takeaways: The antidote to darkness is dignity. The Torah teaches us that even after curses, we must return to affirming the value of each soul. Giving heals. The symbolic 143 shekel of erchin counters the 143 curses, showing the power of charity and sacred commitment. Pain does not diminish worth. Jewish identity is not dependent on external conditions. We remain chosen not despite suffering, but in how we respond to it. A moral education saves lives. The solution to violence isn’t only policy—it’s character, conscience, and responsibility to G-d. We rise because we remember. From the bloodied streets of exile to the halls of peace diplomacy, the Jewish soul remembers who it is and why it’s here. #YaronLischinsky #SarahMilgrim #Torah #Bible #BibleStudy #TorahLessons #TorahPortion #Bechukotai #MoralResponsibility #Chosen #Kabbalah #Sermon #Israel #Antisemitism #chosenpeople #humanworth Support the show Got your own question for Rabbi Bernath?

Send us a text Lag B’Omer isn’t just a day for bonfires and bow-and-arrows. It’s the Hilula —the joyous “wedding day”—of Rabbi Shimon bar Yochai, the mystic who gave us the Zohar and opened the gates of Jewish spiritual consciousness. But why a wedding on the day of someone’s passing ? This class explores the paradox at the heart of both life and love: how our greatest limitations can be our most profound doorways to infinity. We’ll explore Talmudic, Kabbalistic, and Chassidic sources—from the soul-body dynamic, to the power of mitzvot, to why life is likened to a wedding. You’ll discover how the soul’s “marriage” to the body mirrors our own sacred relationships and how Lag B’Omer invites us to celebrate the holiness hidden in the now. 3 Takeaways: Life is a Wedding, Not a Waiting Room Rabbi Shimon taught us to stop postponing joy. Every mitzvah, every act of love, is a divine moment worth celebrating now—not later. Paradox is the Pathway to Eternity Through the union of opposites—soul and body, heaven and earth, law and love—we don’t diminish ourselves. We become eternal. Kabbalah Illuminates the Ordinary Lag B’Omer marks the unveiling of the soul of Torah, where every halachah becomes a mystical spark and every moment a gateway to the Infinite #lagbaomer #zohar #Kabbalah #mysticism #Jewish #chassidic #chassidus #chabad #Hillula #soul #meaningoflife #meaning #JewishSpirituality #soul Support the show Got your own question for Rabbi Bernath?

Send us a text In this eye-opening class, Rabbi Yisroel Bernath explores a cryptic Midrash on the tragic deaths of Nadav and Avihu and how it unexpectedly shook the biblical figure of Job. Through this lens, we’ll uncover what this story teaches us about moral responsibility, the danger of silence in the face of injustice, and the timely relevance of speaking up — especially when it’s uncomfortable. With a nod to current events and a dose of Chassidic insight, this session challenges us to rethink what it really means to be a bystander. Key Takeaways: -Even silence can be a statement — and sometimes, a dangerous one. -The Torah invites us to see not only the sin of action, but the sin of inaction. -Ancient Midrashic voices still speak to modern struggles with injustice and moral clarity. -Spiritual leadership begins with accountability — even for what we don’t say. -In a world filled with noise, knowing when to speak can change everything. #TorahPortion #Torah #Bible #BibleStudy #TorahLessons #Acharei #nadav #avihu #silence #Courage #MoralResponsibility #Antisemitism #jewishhatred #holocaust #jewishleadership #YomHashoah #holocaustremembrance #chabad #Rabbi #yisroelbernath Support the show Got your own question for Rabbi Bernath?

Send us a text In this powerful class on Parshas Tazria, Rabbi Yisroel Bernath explores why the Torah repeats the phrase “the Kohen shall look.” Drawing on the teachings of the Meshech Chochma , we’ll discover the Torah’s revolutionary approach to healing—not just diagnosing the symptoms, but seeing the entire person . This class reveals the spiritual roots of what modern medicine now calls "holistic care," and challenges us to become more compassionate, wise, and soul-aware in how we view others—and ourselves. Key Takeaways: Double Vision : The Torah instructs the Kohen to look twice—once at the affliction, and once at the person—because true healing begins with empathy, not just analysis. Timing is Everything : There are moments when even truth must wait—for the sake of kindness, joy, and emotional safety. See the Soul : Before declaring someone “impure,” see their heart. Understand the difference between rebellion and pain, behavior and backstory. Holistic Before It Was In : Thousands of years before integrative medicine became a buzzword, the Torah already taught us to heal bodies by caring for souls. Relational Wisdom : Whether in parenting, teaching, or friendships—don’t just fix the problem. See the person behind the problem. #Torah #Bible #BibleStudy #TorahLessons #TorahPortion #Tazria #HolisticHealing #Kohen #Tzaraat #Jewish #JewishSpirituality Support the show Got your own question for Rabbi Bernath?

Send us a text In this transformative pre-Passover class, Rabbi Yisroel Bernath invites us to reimagine one of the most perplexing passages of the Haggadah—the confrontation with the so-called “wicked” child. At first glance, it seems to suggest aggression. But look again. Beneath the surface lies a profound truth about love, empathy, and the infinite potential within every soul. We explore how the seder is not just about telling a story—it's about healing the parts of ourselves and our loved ones that feel like outsiders. We uncover the inner Tzaddik hiding behind the rebellious exterior, the wisdom in our struggles, and the quiet yet revolutionary power of radical acceptance. The class culminates in a powerful meditation on “Nirtzah”—the moment we stop striving and start trusting that our best is enough. Key Takeaways: Look Beneath the Words – The “wicked” child isn’t wicked. He’s wounded. Real listening means tuning into the cry behind the comment. Empathy Over Argument – “Blunt his teeth” isn’t an invitation to silence—it’s a call to go beyond verbal combat and into soulful connection. Every Part Belongs – The Four Children represent not just four people, but four parts of ourselves. Don’t exile your Hyde—transform him. Rebel ≠ Reject – Even our flaws can be tools for growth. The goal isn’t to eliminate the Yetzer Hara, but to elevate it. Your Best Is Enough – The final step of the seder, Nirtzah , is the antidote to “I’m not good enough.” It reminds us: G-d is already pleased. The only one left to convince is ourselves. #Passover #Seder #Hagaddah #chabad #Kabbalah #Israel Support the show Got your own question for Rabbi Bernath?

Send us a text Navigating the choppy waters of our inner Nile, where the Pharaoh of Negative Thought reigns supreme, Rabbi Bernath offers a sage map for the modern soul's Exodus. Picture this: an inner Pharaoh, all ego and no ear, refusing the logic we offer as liberally as matzah at Pesach. It's an ancient tale, yet as current as our latest tweet. Enter Moshe, our timeless hero, speaking Hebrew to a Pharaoh who's as lost in translation as a tourist without Google Maps. The catch? It's not about the words, but the Divine energy they carry, slicing through stubbornness like a hot knife through butter. Consider the Chafetz Chaim, whose Yiddish plea melted Polish hearts without a single word understood—a testament to the soul's language, transcending the babble of Babel. Then there's the 7/38/55 rule, a reminder that our vibes speak louder than our vocabulary. The body's ballet and the tone's tune tell tales our tongues can't touch. So when faced with our own Pharaoh—be it doubt, fear, or the Sunday Scaries—Rabbi Bernath advises a strategy as bold as it is biblical: Speak in your soul's native tongue. No translation needed. For it's not the clarity of argument, but the purity of our Divine essence, that can topple tyranny within. In essence, Rabbi Bernath suggests, when logic's light dims and reason's ropes fray, it's time to unfurl the banner of our inherent holiness, declaring our truths in a language beyond words. Like Moshe, we stand before our inner Pharaoh not to debate, but to demonstrate—a conduit of Divine will, unyielding and unfiltered. In doing so, we don't just speak to our shadows; we illuminate them, transforming the inner Egypt into a land flowing with milk, honey, and the sweet freedom of self-mastery. So let's raise our staffs, part our personal Red Seas, and march towards a promised land of inner peace and purpose, one holy utterance at a time.

Send us a text The Passover Seder isn’t just a tradition....it’s an invitation. Not just for guests around your table, but for you . An invitation to show up emotionally, spiritually, and vulnerably. This class explores five Seder moments that, when fully embraced, can transform your night from ritual to revolution. We’ll journey from the cracked matzah to the humble matzah, from our collective memory to our personal growth, from the bitterness of trauma to the sweetness of faith. Discover why incompletion is a gift, how humility is the key to freedom, and why the Seder might just be history’s original group therapy session. 5 Key Takeaways: Invite Yourself In The opening words of the Seder aren’t about inviting others —they’re about inviting yourself . Your full, vulnerable, questioning, present self. This is your moment to enter the story, not as a spectator, but as the protagonist. Celebrate What’s Broken Yachatz teaches that brokenness isn’t a defect—it’s a doorway. By honoring what’s missing, we create space for growth, connection, and Divine presence. Real healing begins when we stop pretending to be whole. You Are Part of a 3,337-Year Legacy While other civilizations forget, we remember. The power of the Seder is memory with mission: to remind us that no matter where we are, freedom is always the next chapter if we have the courage to write it. Humility is Freedom’s Secret Ingredient Matzah isn’t just flat—it’s freeing. The opposite of ego isn’t weakness; it’s openness. Freedom requires the courage to say, “Maybe I don’t know everything.” That humility invites new beginnings. Freedom Begins in the Heart Egypt isn’t just a place—it’s a mindset. It’s the voice that says, “This is how it’s always been.” But G-d gave us a hidden “escape hatch”—a shift in perception, a crack of hope, a step toward healing. Your freedom begins when you stop being “right” and start being real . #Passover #seder #freedom #matzah #Jewish #Judaism #pesach Passover Seder, Freedom, Matzah, Humility, Jewish Identity, Vulnerability, Brokenness, Personal Growth, Group Therapy, Jewish Memory, Healing, Transformation, Ego, Yachatz, Exodus, Egypt, Legacy, Soul Work Support the show Got your own question for Rabbi Bernath?

Send us a text The Exodus from Egypt was not just a historical event—it was a revolution in human consciousness. Moses didn’t only break the physical chains of slavery; he shattered the psychological and spiritual limitations that kept humanity in bondage. This class explores how the Exodus introduced the language of freedom, inspiring revolutions, civil rights movements, and personal transformation throughout history. We will uncover how the lessons of Pesach continue to empower us to break free from limitations, redefine our identities, and pursue a life of purpose and growth. Key Takeaways: Slavery is a Mentality: The true bondage in Egypt was not just physical but a deeply ingrained mindset of submission and despair. The Power of Language: Moses introduced a new vocabulary of freedom, instilling in humanity the idea that change is possible. Exodus as a Blueprint: The story of the Exodus has fueled countless movements for justice, from the American Revolution to the Civil Rights movement. Personal Redemption: Every time we overcome fear, bad habits, or societal expectations, we reenact the Exodus in our own lives. Pesach as an Eternal Spring: Just as Passover must always fall in spring, the message of renewal, hope, and transformation is timeless. #Passover #Judaism #Pesach #Moses #freedom #personalgrowth #personalresponsibility #civilrights #humandignity #Redemption #chabad #Rabbi #jewishholiday Support the show Got your own question for Rabbi Bernath?

Send us a text Plato argued that reality is found in perfect, unchanging ideals, while the physical world is merely a flawed reflection. Chassidic thought challenges this notion, asserting that G-d’s presence is found precisely in the imperfect, physical world. Through the lens of this debate, we explored how this idea impacts our relationships, personal growth, and spiritual journey—showing that meaning and divine purpose emerge from engaging with reality as it is, rather than escaping to an idealized version of it. Key Takeaways: Plato’s philosophy separates the ideal from the real, placing truth in abstract perfection. Kabbalah teaches that G-d’s presence is in the here and now , within life’s imperfections. The Torah’s repetition of the Mishkan’s construction emphasizes that holiness is not in a divine blueprint but in human action. Growth, relationships, and meaning are found in embracing life’s struggles, not escaping them. True beauty is not perfection—it’s the courage to build something holy in an imperfect world. Notes: See Rabbi Jonathan Sacks, The Dignity of Difference, for a detailed explanation of this idea of Plato and its impact on Western thought. "G-d desired a dwelling in the lowly realms" (Midrash Tanchuma, Nasso 16); "This is what man is all about, this is the purpose of his creation and of the creation of all worlds, supernal and ephemeral" (Tanya, chapter 36). #Kabbalah #Judaism #Plato #Rabbi #chabad #Jewish #Bible #BibleStudy #Torah #TorahPortion #TorahLessons #Vayakhel #ParshatVayakhel Support the show Got your own question for Rabbi Bernath?

Send us a text Anti-Semitism is not merely another form of bigotry or racial hatred—it is unique in its universality, its persistence throughout history, and its deep, irrational roots. From Pharaoh to Hitler, from ancient Persia to modern-day university campuses, the Jew has been targeted with a singular, unparalleled intensity. Why? What makes this hatred different from all other hatreds? This class delves into the core of Jew-hatred, exploring its historical patterns and its spiritual roots. The Talmudic parable of the "mound and the ditch" reveals that anti-Semitism is not simply about economics, politics, or cultural tensions—it is about something much deeper. The world has an innate reaction to the presence of the Jew, a reaction that stems from the unique role that the Jewish people play in history as the bearers of Divine morality. Through the lens of Torah, the teachings of the Lubavitcher Rebbe, and a contemporary analysis of world events—including the resurgence of anti-Semitism post-October 7, 2023—this class seeks to answer the unanswerable: Why does the world hate the Jew? And, more importantly, how should we respond? Key Takeaways: A Hatred Like No Other – Anti-Semitism has persisted for thousands of years across all cultures and ideologies, defying conventional explanations. The "Mound and the Ditch" Paradigm – The Talmud describes two types of anti-Semites: those who see Jews as an unwanted obstacle and those who feel an existential void because of Jewish morality. The Sinai Connection – The world’s rejection of Jewish existence is linked to our mission as bearers of Divine ethics, which some embrace and others resent. Appeasement Does Not Work – History has proven that trying to minimize or hide Jewish identity never quells anti-Semitism; it often exacerbates it. The Jewish Response – Strengthening our connection to G-d, embracing Torah and mitzvot, and standing firm in Jewish pride is the only true antidote to anti-Semitism. #Antisemitism #Judaism #Purim #JewishHistory #Haman #Rebbe #habad #chabad #Jewishsurvival #Talmud #Jewish #MoralCourage #MoralResponsibility #JewishIdentity Support the show Got your own question for Rabbi Bernath?

Send us a text The Midrash compares Haman’s plot against the Jews to a foolish bird attempting to drain the sea, beakful by beakful. At first glance, this fable highlights the impossibility of eradicating the Jewish people. But upon deeper examination, it reveals the secret of Jewish survival, the core reason for antisemitism, and the unbreakable bond between the Jewish soul and Torah. Haman’s mistake was in thinking that severing Jews from Torah would make them vulnerable to destruction—yet, as history has shown, even when Jews have drifted from their spiritual roots, their intrinsic connection to G-d and Torah remains. This class explores why the Jewish people have endured against all odds and what this means for our own Jewish identity today. Key Takeaways: The Midrash’s Metaphor – Haman’s attempt to destroy the Jews was as foolish as a bird trying to empty an ocean. But why? This metaphor reveals deeper truths about Jewish resilience. The Secret of Antisemitism – Haman, like many persecutors throughout history, saw Jewish existence as a threat. Why have so many tyrants sought to destroy the Jewish people? The Relationship Between Jews and Torah – The Torah is to Jews what water is to fish. Even when Jews drift, they cannot fully detach from their Divine essence. G-d’s ‘Unsuccessful’ Plan – The Midrash states that even G-d could not destroy the Jewish people. What does this mean, and what does it teach us about the Jewish soul? Haman’s ‘Final Solution’ – His real plan wasn’t just genocide—it was to dry up the Jewish connection to Torah and assimilate them into Persian society. This strategy failed, just as all others have throughout history. The Eternal Bond – The Jews have outlived every empire that sought their destruction, proving that their essence is eternal. A Call to Jewish Unity – If a Jew was Jewish enough for Hitler to send to the gas chambers, he is Jewish enough for us to love and embrace.

Send us a text This class explores the seminal Chassidic discourse Basi LeGani , first written by the sixth Lubavitcher Rebbe, Rabbi Yosef Yitzchak Schneersohn, and later expanded upon annually by his successor, the Rebbe, Rabbi Menachem M. Schneerson. This discourse outlines the purpose of creation: transforming the world into G‑d’s garden, a place of divine presence. It introduces the responsibility of the “Seventh Generation”—our generation—to complete this mission and usher in the final redemption. Through themes of personal transformation, divine revelation, and the power of "holy folly," we uncover the Rebbe's call to action: to bring G‑d’s presence into every aspect of the world. Key Takeaways: The Garden is Our World – Basi LeGani describes G‑d's desire to dwell in this physical world, not just in the heavens. Our task is to make the world a home for Him. The Mission of the Seventh Generation – Like Moses, the seventh leader in his lineage, our generation—the seventh since the Alter Rebbe—is tasked with completing the divine plan. Transforming Darkness into Light – The discourse emphasizes that our struggles with the “inner animal” are part of the mission; by channeling our desires toward holiness, we refine ourselves and the world. Holy Folly – True service of G‑d sometimes requires acting beyond logic, just as the Tabernacle was built from shittim (wood related to shtut , folly). We must counter worldly foolishness with a deeper devotion that transcends reason. A Call to Action – The Rebbe’s words demand more than study—they require us to actively bring others closer to Torah and mitzvot, ensuring that no soul is left behind in preparing the world for Moshiach. #chabad #Rebbe #chassidic #basilegnai #lubavitch #LubavitcherRebbe #Shechinah #YudShevat Support the show Got your own question for Rabbi Bernath?

Send us a text On Yud Shevat 5711 (1951), the Lubavitcher Rebbe, Rabbi MM Schneerson, revolutionized Jewish leadership. He declared a bold vision, not merely to anticipate Moshiach in a distant future, but to actively work towards this era in our lifetime. This audacious goal was set against the backdrop of post-Holocaust Jewish reality, challenging every Jew to contribute to this ultimate redemption. The Rebbe's approach to leadership was groundbreaking. He insisted on a partnership model, where he would guide, but each individual was responsible for their own spiritual and worldly contribution. This was exemplified in his Sunday interactions, where the simple act of giving a dollar for charity transformed recipients into 'shluchim,' agents of positive change and personal responsibility. The essence of the Rebbe's philosophy was beautifully encapsulated in his interaction with Gabriel Erem. Rather than focusing on his own greatness, the Rebbe redirected attention to the potential within every Jew. By redefining 'tzadik' and 'rebbe,' he democratized spiritual greatness, making it accessible to all. His teachings continue to inspire a vision where personal achievement and universal perfection are inextricably linked, empowering every Jew to be a leader in their own right.

Send us a text This class does a deep dive into the psychological and mystical significance of Pharaoh’s final confrontation with Moses before the tenth plague. Throughout the first nine plagues, Pharaoh displayed a surprising level of tolerance towards Moses, despite the devastation he brought upon Egypt. But after the plague of darkness, something shifted—Pharaoh snapped and threatened Moses' life. Why was this the breaking point? Through Kabbalistic insight, we explore the Pharaoh within us all: the force that disconnects intellect from heart, numbing us to truth. Like an addict resisting recovery, Pharaoh’s descent into darkness mirrors the way we sometimes silence our own inner voice of conscience. Moses’ slap was not just an act of defiance—it was a symbolic moment marking Pharaoh’s complete spiritual collapse. Key Takeaways: Pharaoh vs. Moses as an Inner Struggle: Pharaoh represents the ego’s resistance to change, while Moses is the voice of our moral conscience. Why Darkness Was the Breaking Point: The plague of darkness symbolizes the moment a person loses not only emotional awareness but also intellectual perception, making true transformation nearly impossible. The Danger of Losing Sight: A person may endure emotional and even intellectual corruption, but as long as they retain a glimmer of awareness—of something greater than themselves—there is still hope. The Addict’s Battle: Many struggle with self-destructive behaviors, hating yet needing their inner “Moses.” The moment they fully reject that voice, they risk losing themselves entirely. Moses’ Slap as a Spiritual Statement: The slap symbolizes that Pharaoh had lost all divine presence within him. He was no longer just a cruel oppressor; he was a man who had extinguished his own soul. This class challenges us to consider: Are we listening to our inner Moses, or are we allowing our Pharaoh to take over? And most importantly—have we reached a point of darkness where we no longer even see the battle? #Bible #Passover #Moses #BibleStudy #TorahLessons #Torah #Bo #Pharaoh #moshe #Kabbalah #TorahPortion #Sermon #Rabbi #chabad Support the show Got your own question for Rabbi Bernath?

Send us a text This lecture explores the profound parable of The Thief by Rabbi Nachman of Breslov, who teaches that every soul contends with an inner thief—an inclination that robs us of our divine light. Drawing parallels between this concept and the Ten Plagues, Rabbi Bernath delves into how each plague symbolizes a distortion of the ten faculties of the soul, as described in Kabbalah. These ancient episodes of spiritual dysfunction mirror the psychological struggles we face today. Through understanding the anatomy of our soul and the symbolic meaning of the plagues, we uncover a roadmap to self-recovery and spiritual transformation. Takeaways : The Inner Thief : Recognizing the negative impulses within us is the first step to reclaiming our inner peace. Plagues as Life Lessons : The Ten Plagues symbolize spiritual dysfunctions in the soul, offering timeless lessons for introspection and growth. Refinement of the Soul : Each plague corresponds to a faculty of the soul—confidence, compassion, love, and others—highlighting the necessity to channel these energies positively. Path to Redemption : Liberation from our "Mitzrayim" begins with honest self-awareness, confronting our inner distortions, and returning to our divine purpose. The Power of Recovery : Even when the thief within seems to have consumed all, recovery and renewal are always possible. #Kabbalah #TenPlagues #Judaism #Jewish #Egypt #Mitzrayim #InnerThief #Sprirital #JewishHistory #Bible #Exodus #Vaera #TorahPortion #Torah #TorahLessons Support the show Got your own question for Rabbi Bernath?

Send us a text The fast of Asarah B'Tevet marks the siege of Jerusalem—a moment that appears subtle in its immediacy but significant in its consequences. Similarly, the story of Joseph reveals how the most painful events in life can lead to profound growth and redemption. By examining the parallels between Joseph’s journey and the lessons of Asarah B'Tevet, we uncover a deeper truth: even in the darkest moments, G-d's hand is guiding us toward transformation, healing, and purpose. This class explores both the historical significance of Asarah B'Tevet and Joseph’s journey to reveal how even our personal "sieges" can be moments of divine support and growth. Key Takeaways Significance of Small Beginnings : Asarah B'Tevet reminds us that even small actions or events, such as the siege of Jerusalem or the sale of Joseph into slavery, can set the stage for transformative changes. The Duality of Pain and Growth : Just as the siege of Jerusalem marked the beginning of exile but also contained the seeds of redemption, Joseph’s descent into slavery was the foundation of his rise to greatness. Pain and setbacks, when approached with faith, can be turned into opportunities for growth and leadership. Noticing the Cracks in Our Lives : Both Asarah B'Tevet and the story of Joseph urge us to address the early signs of trouble in our personal and spiritual lives. Whether it's the start of a siege or the seeds of discord within a family, the earlier we act, the greater the potential for healing. The Power of Perspective : Joseph’s ability to forgive his brothers stems from his recognition that G-d was behind every step of his journey. This is a lesson for us to surrender our expectations and trust that our challenges are part of a divine plan. Exile as a Catalyst for Redemption : The Babylonian siege of Jerusalem and Joseph's exile to Egypt share a common message: exile is not the end—it is a process that can bring us closer to Hashem and help us discover our inner strength. Just as Joseph rose to become a leader who saved many, the Jewish people’s exile has led to a stronger, more resilient nation. Transformation of Pain into Triumph : Joseph’s message to his brothers—"It was not you who sent me here, but G-d"—aligns with the promise that fast days like Asarah B'Tevet will be transformed into days of joy and celebration in the Messianic era. Every descent is for the sake of a greater ascent. #Jewish #Judaism #BibleStudy #Fastdays #10tevet #Genesis #Joseph #Redemption #Trustingod #divinepurpose #Sermon #DvarTorah #tentevet Support the show Got your own question for Rabbi Bernath?

Send us a text The dramatic moment when Joseph reveals his identity to his brothers, after decades of separation and pain, holds timeless lessons for our lives. This Torah episode is more than a reunion; it is a profound exploration of identity, resilience, and divine purpose. Through Joseph's words, "I am Joseph," we are invited to uncover the paradoxical power of struggle—how challenges, alienation, and darkness can unleash a person's deepest spiritual potential. This lecture delves into the nuanced dynamics of the story, addressing the brothers’ guilt, Joseph’s response, and the transformative message that adversity can catalyze unparalleled growth. Key Takeaways: Identity Beyond the Mask: Joseph’s declaration, “I am Joseph,” was not merely informational but transformational. It revealed not just who he was but the divine light and moral integrity that had been hidden beneath his external roles. His life teaches us the value of looking beyond the surface and recognizing the soul within. Growth Through Adversity: Joseph's greatness did not emerge despite his trials in Egypt—it emerged because of them. The very darkness of his journey was the catalyst for his extraordinary spiritual light. Our struggles, too, can become the source of our unique strength and greatness. The Pain of Misunderstanding: Joseph’s brothers initially failed to see his true character, both in his youth and when he was the viceroy of Egypt. This reflects a universal struggle: the pain of being misunderstood and the challenge of seeing others for who they truly are. From Regret to Redemption: The brothers’ initial reaction—horror at their missed opportunity—was met with Joseph’s reassurance. His words remind us that G-d’s plan is greater than our mistakes, and even our failures can be transformed into a vehicle for divine purpose. The Power of Brotherhood: Joseph’s second declaration, “I am Joseph your brother,” emphasized connection and unity. Even after betrayal, Joseph reasserted the unbreakable bond of family and faith, inspiring us to embrace reconciliation and healing. Your Journey Is Your Purpose: The lesson of Joseph’s life is that we should not live in the world of “If only.” Every twist and turn of our journey is designed by G-d to help us discover and fulfill our unique mission in this world. #BibleStudy #TorahPortion #Judaism #Jewish #Torah #TorahLessons #Vayigash #Genesis #Joseph Support the show Got your own question for Rabbi Bernath?

Send us a text In this class, Rabb Yisroel Bernath delves into the profound symbolism of the dreidel, a cherished Chanukah tradition. By examining the four sides of the dreidel and their connection to the human psyche—ego, bodily urges, reason, and the compulsion to destroy—we uncover a deeper narrative about human behavior and spirituality. Through the lens of Jewish mysticism, the dreidel becomes a metaphor for balancing our inner struggles and aligning them with our divine essence. The class further explores historical parallels between the human psyche and the four empires that clashed with Judaism, demonstrating how these lessons remain relevant in contemporary life. Key Takeaways: Four Dimensions of the Psyche: The dreidel's four sides symbolize the ego, bodily urges, reason, and the destructive impulse, all of which can either harm or elevate us. The Fifth Dimension: The dreidel’s point represents the divine spark within each of us, guiding our moral clarity and purpose. Historical Reflection: The struggles of Babylonia, Persia, Greece, and Rome against Judaism mirror the internal battles of the human spirit. Spiritual Growth: Chanukah teaches us to harness our inner forces, transforming them into tools for divine expression and moral refinement. Relevance Today: Understanding the interplay of our psychological elements can lead to personal and societal improvement rooted in universal morality.

Send us a text The second half of Genesis is filled with dreams that carry profound messages about life, destiny, and action. In this class, Rabbi Yisroel Bernath explores the dreams of Joseph, the butler, and the baker, uncovering their deeper meanings. Through Joseph’s interpretations, we learn a critical distinction: the difference between being active participants in shaping our destiny versus passive observers of life’s circumstances. By understanding this lesson, we are empowered to take charge of our challenges, break free from our personal prisons, and transform our sighs into meaningful deeds. Key Takeaways: Active vs. Passive Living: The butler's active role in his dream symbolizes life and freedom, while the baker’s passivity reflects helplessness and demise. Joseph’s Wisdom: Joseph’s interpretations teach us that being proactive in life leads to growth and redemption, while inaction can trap us in stagnation. Prison as a Metaphor: Everyone faces limitations—whether emotional or circumstantial. The key is to take action despite those constraints. The Power of Deeds: Small, intentional actions can break cycles of despair and open the door to freedom and purpose. A Call to Action: Whether facing personal struggles or communal challenges, the solution lies in doing—no matter how small the first step may seem. #biblestudy #joseph #dreams Genesis, Joseph, dreams, butler, baker, action vs. inaction, personal growth, Jewish continuity, proactive living, spirituality, freedom, empowerment, meaningful deeds.

Send us a text In this deeply personal and profound sermon, we confront the unanswerable question of why tragedies befall righteous individuals, using the life and legacy of Rabbi Zvi Kogan HY"D as a source of inspiration. While acknowledging the pain and darkness, we explore the Jewish response: to transform sorrow into an unstoppable commitment to goodness, light, and purpose. Drawing from the teachings of the Rebbe and our Patriarchs' connection to wells, we learn that even in the depths of despair, the hidden springs of resilience and holiness can be uncovered to nourish a world in desperate need of light. Key Takeaways The Power of Purpose Rabbi Zvi Kogan lived a life filled with purpose, building a vibrant Jewish community. His legacy teaches us that purpose gives life meaning, even in the face of adversity. Transforming Pain into Action The Jewish response to tragedy is not paralysis but action. Every mitzvah we do brings Divine compassion into the world and counters the darkness of fear and hatred. The Symbolism of Wells Our forefathers' wells symbolize the discovery of hidden strength and inspiration amidst struggle. Just as spring water emerges pure and life-giving from beneath the earth, so too does our greatest light often emerge from our deepest struggles. Small Acts, Big Impact Simple, consistent actions—lighting Shabbat candles, giving tzedakah, or teaching children—create ripples of light and holiness that transform the world. Carrying the Legacy Rabbi Kogan’s legacy challenges us to be lamplighters, bringing light to the darkest places through courage, faith, and consistent acts of goodness. Faith in Justice The phrase HY”D, “May G-d avenge their blood,” reaffirms our faith in G-d's ultimate justice, rejecting chaos and vengeance while affirming our role as bearers of moral clarity.

Send us a text This week's Torah portion, Vayeira , captures the surprising encounter between Abraham and three angelic visitors. Expecting divine revelations, the angels instead find Abraham busy with hospitality — preparing food, fetching water, and overseeing their comfort. They question, “Where is Sarah your wife?” seeking a glimpse of the true tzaddik, only to find that her holiness, too, is concealed within the humble details of life. Through Abraham's actions, the angels learn that genuine holiness is not in escaping earthly concerns, but in bringing light to them. Abraham demonstrates that true spirituality is about bringing heaven into the everyday, a mission passed down through his descendants. Key Takeaways: Spiritual Greatness in the Mundane: Abraham’s greatness is revealed not in miraculous acts but in his devoted, everyday service to others, emphasizing that holiness is found within the ordinary moments. The Tzaddik’s Mission: Abraham’s role as a tzaddik teaches us that spiritual leaders embody selflessness, focusing on the needs of others as a path to divine connection. True Hospitality as Divine Work: By hosting the angels, Abraham exemplifies how simple acts of kindness can elevate humanity above even angelic beings. Bringing Heaven Down to Earth: The narrative illustrates that our purpose is not to transcend the physical but to infuse it with sacredness, creating a “home for G-d” here on earth. Holiness Concealed and Revealed: Abraham and Sarah’s roles demonstrate that true spiritual power may often be hidden, discovered in moments of kindness and commitment, rather than in overt displays of sanctity. #Torah #TorahPortion #Bible #Abraham #Holiness #Spirituality #Judaism #Jewish #JewishHistory #BibleStudy Support the show Got your own question for Rabbi Bernath?

Send us a text This week, Rabbi Bernath's sermon delves into the profound moment in this week's Torah portion when G-d calls Abraham to leave everything familiar and embark on a journey that would define not only his own life but the life of humanity. The Midrash’s metaphor of a palace in flames becomes the key image for Abraham's—and ultimately all of Judaism's—mission. Abraham's journey begins with a cry to G-d, asking why a beautiful world, brimming with order and wonder, is engulfed in suffering and strife. G-d’s response, “I am the ruler of the palace,” calls Abraham, and all of us, to act as His partners in repairing the world. Through G-d’s implicit challenge, Abraham learned—and taught—the lesson at the heart of Judaism: that we are tasked with extinguishing the flames of injustice and bringing G-d’s presence into our world. Takeaways: 1. Humanity's Responsibility: Judaism teaches that we are responsible for the world, called upon to combat injustice and protect life, not simply to observe the beauty or lament the flames. 2. The Power of Moral Courage: True goodness demands moral courage, the bravery to condemn evil unequivocally and protect the innocent. Abraham’s journey ignites the mission of Judaism: to oppose wrongdoing without compromise. 3. Rejecting Passivity: The Midrash urges us to reject passivity in the face of evil. Like Abraham, we are called to ask tough questions of ourselves and society and to lead by example, striving toward a world of compassion and righteousness. 4. Redefining Leadership and Society: In choosing leaders and guiding our own lives, we must seek those who recognize the importance of standing up against those who “set fire to the palace,” those willing to uphold justice and moral clarity. 5. Partnership with G-d: The true beginning of the Jewish faith is the realization that we are G-d’s partners in creation, called to infuse holiness into the world by actively pursuing justice, kindness, and integrity. #Judaism #Torah #Bible #LechLecha #TorahPortion #TorahLessons #Abraham #MoralResponsibility #TikkunOlam #Leadership #Avraham #chabad #DvarTorah #Sermon Support the show Got your own question for Rabbi Bernath?

Send us a text In the aftermath of the Great Flood, humanity united in the Valley of Shinar to construct the Tower of Babel—a symbol of ambition and defiance. The story reveals three driving philosophies behind the Tower: rebellion against G-d, forced homogeneity, and misguided rationalism. While one idea was burnt away, another buried but recurrent, the last still towers today in subtle denial of divine orchestration. The lesson is clear: humanity thrives through embracing diversity, acknowledging divine orchestration, and building not to rival heaven but to bring heaven down to earth. Key Takeaways: Rebellion Burned Away: The primitive notion of defeating the Divine was extinguished, symbolizing that even skepticism today acknowledges a transcendental Creator. Unity vs. Diversity: Forced homogeneity, though submerged, resurfaces throughout history, proving true unity respects and celebrates diversity. Misguided Rationalism Stands Tall: The persistent belief in randomness over divine providence endures, dulling moral sensitivity and feeding human hubris. The Power of Choice: Life's significance pivots on our choices—to see the world as a series of random events or as an intentional, divine masterpiece. #Bible #Torah #Jewish #Judaism #TowerofBabel #JewishHistory #Sermon #Unity #diversity #DivineUnity #divinepurpose #Faith #science #scienceandfaith Support the show Got your own question for Rabbi Bernath?

Send us a text On the night of Rosh Hashanah, we engage in a cosmic ceremony unlike any other — the coronation of G-d as our King. Drawing inspiration from Rabbi Yosef Dov Soleveitchik’s childhood story in Chaslavitch, we explore the profound depth of Rosh Hashanah, where the humblest among us — the tailor, shoemaker, water-carrier, and painter — all participate in the crowning of G-d. But why does the infinite, omnipotent G-d desire our coronation? Through this act, we come to understand the relationship between human free will and divine sovereignty, and how Rosh Hashanah illuminates the purpose of our existence. Key Takeaways: Rosh Hashanah as Coronation: Rosh Hashanah is the "Coronation Night" when each person, regardless of their station, plays a role in crowning G-d as King. Why G-d Needs Our Coronation: G-d desires a relationship built on choice, not coercion. We are invited to freely declare Him King, forging a personal bond with the Creator. Human Free Will: Rosh Hashanah embodies the paradox of a limitless G-d who humbles Himself, allowing space for us to choose Him — elevating our smallness into cosmic significance. The Power of the Simple Jew: It is not the scholars or kings alone who coronate G-d; it’s the everyday Jew, demonstrating that each of us holds a divine role and responsibility. Our Unique Role: The vulnerability of G-d in desiring our choice speaks to the magnitude of human existence — we hold the power to invite G-d into our lives and crown Him King over creation. #roshhashanah #roshhashana #judaism #god #freewill #divine #jewishcommunity #jewish #purpose #highholidays #sermon Rosh Hashanah, Coronation Night, Rabbi Yosef Dov Soleveitchik, G-d as King, free will, divine sovereignty, relationship with G-d, Jewish existence, Chabad teachings, human purpose, vulnerability of G-d.

Send us a text The month of Elul is a time of deep introspection and renewal in love and relationships, aligning with the theme of "Ani l'dodi v'dodi li" – "I am to my beloved, and my beloved is to me." This sermon explores the mystical dimensions of Elul, emphasizing how true love and unity are possible without compromising individuality. By understanding the Kabbalistic concepts of Divine light and vessels, we learn how love in human relationships mirrors the unity between the finite and the infinite. As we honor Jenna and Shmuel’s upcoming wedding, we delve into the profound lesson of how two distinct souls can join together seamlessly, embodying the essence of Elul’s energy. Key Takeaways: Elul's Unique Energy: Elul, the month of Virgo, carries the energy of love and relationships. It invites us to reflect on the mutual symbiosis between two individuals, just as it symbolizes our relationship with the Divine. Ani L'dodi V'dodi Li: This phrase from Song of Songs encapsulates the essence of love—a dynamic where each person reflects the other. Love grows in proportion to the love we give, mirroring how we relate to the Divine. Love as an Initiative: True love requires proactive effort. We must take the initiative in relationships rather than waiting for love to come to us. This active approach leads to deeper, reciprocated connections. Unity Without Compromise: Kabbalah teaches that unity between distinct entities, like the union between a couple or between humanity and the Divine, is possible without losing individuality. The interplay of light and vessel shows how finite beings can merge with the infinite while maintaining their unique identity. Reflection in Relationships: The union of "I" and "my beloved" reflects the cosmic unity, demonstrating how individual souls can unite harmoniously. This union is celebrated in marriage, where two people become one while still retaining their personal essence. Support the show Got your own question for Rabbi Bernath?

Send us a text The Rebbe’s teachings on the parable of the “King in the Field,” drawn from Rabbi Schneur Zalman of Liadi, provide profound insights into the unique opportunity presented by the month of Elul. Unlike the rest of the year, when approaching G-d can feel daunting, during Elul G-d leaves the palace and meets us in the field. This signifies His closeness, love, and willingness to engage with all of us, no matter how distant we may feel. However, it is up to us to take the first step towards Him. Through acts of charity, prayer, and listening to the shofar, we are invited to greet the King and prepare ourselves to follow Him back to the palace for the High Holidays. Takeaways : The King is in the Field : During Elul, G-d is accessible to everyone, symbolizing divine mercy and forgiveness. We Must Take the First Step : The initiative to approach G-d during Elul is ours, as indicated by “I am to my Beloved, and my Beloved is to me.” Preparation for the High Holidays : Our acts of humility and dedication during Elul lead us to be granted an audience with G-d during the High Holidays. Field and Palace : Elul represents a time of closeness and simplicity, while the High Holidays invite us into G-d’s palace, where His full glory is revealed.

Send us a text In this class Rabbi Yisroel Bernath into the Kabbalistic perspective on emotional growth, focusing specifically on the emotion of love during a special omer period of introspection. Rabbi Bernath explains that contrary to common belief, emotional growth continues throughout one’s life. Love, being essential for both giving and receiving, acts as a foundation for all human interactions and transcends the mere act of feeling. The discussion highlights the complexity of love, showing that it involves multiple aspects such as discipline, compassion, endurance, humility, bonding, and sovereignty, each of which must be balanced to foster healthy relationships and emotional well-being. Key Takeaways Emotional Examination : The importance of examining one's emotions to achieve emotional freedom and health. This process involves questioning and analyzing one's emotional tendencies and balances. The Complexity of Love : Love is multifaceted, requiring not just the capacity to love others but also discipline to modulate this love, compassion to understand others, endurance to maintain love over time, humility to yield and bond, and sovereignty that respects both parties' dignity. Emotional Growth as a Lifelong Process : Emotional maturity is not static and continues to develop throughout life, unlike the often static perception of intellectual or financial growth. Sevenfold Approach to Each Emotion : In Kabbalah, each emotion is explored through seven subcategories, adding depth to understanding and managing these emotions effectively.

Send us a text Welcome to our special Passover episode, where we explore the profound layers of the Passover Seder, a ceremony that beautifully encapsulates over three millennia of Jewish history and identity. In this episode, we discuss the fifteen steps of the Seder, from Kiddush to the festive meal, and delve into the powerful narratives and symbols that connect us to our ancestors. We share a humorous yet insightful exchange between a rabbi and an astrophysics professor, which cleverly illustrates the depth of Talmudic study compared to the simplification of complex ideas. The conversation highlights how Jewish traditions and teachings are much more than historical records; they are vibrant memories passed down through generations, forming a continuous link back to the Exodus from Egypt. We reflect on how the presence of multiple generations at the Seder table turns these historical events into a vivid collective memory, extending back hundreds of years and forward into future gatherings. This episode also touches on the intriguing absence of certain words in Biblical Hebrew, such as "history," which is replaced with "memory" — a concept deeply ingrained in Jewish culture. Join us as we discuss how the Passover Seder transcends mere historical recounting, acting instead as a dynamic memory that engages with the past as a living part of our present and future. We conclude with a powerful message on transforming pain into blessing, inspired by the life of Henrietta Szold, who turned personal hardship into a legacy of love and humanitarianism. Main Takeaways: The Seder as a Link Across Time: The Passover Seder is not just a ritual but a bridge connecting 3,300 years of Jewish history through family stories and traditions passed down through generations. Memory Over History: The episode explores why the Hebrew language prefers the term "memory" over "history," emphasizing personal and collective identity formation through remembered experiences rather than impersonal historical events. Cultural Insights: A look at how the absence of certain words in Hebrew, like "history" and "civility," reflects deeper cultural values, with "memory" (zachor) and "chutzpah" taking prominent roles. Humor and Wisdom: The interaction between the rabbi and the professor serves as a metaphor for the depth and complexity of Jewish teachings and the importance of continual learning and interpretation.

Send us a text Rabbi Yisroel Bernath discusses the upcoming solar eclipse and the lessons we can learn from it. He explores the relationship between the sun and the moon, highlighting the dangers of jealousy and the importance of independent and critical thought. He also delves into the significance of the Torah's laws of kashrut (keeping kosher) and how they teach us about our connection to G-d. Rabbi Bernath emphasizes the need for self-reflection, learning from our experiences, and standing up for what is right. Takeaways The solar eclipse serves as a reminder of the power and beauty of nature and the need for self-reflection. Jealousy is a destructive emotion that should be avoided at all costs. Independent and critical thought is a valuable trait that should be encouraged, especially in the pursuit of knowledge and education. The Torah's laws of kashrut teach us about our connection to God and the importance of following commandments. We should learn from our experiences and strive to be better individuals, standing up for what is right. Sound Bites "So many arguments in our world, similar to the moon and the sun, two rulers cannot rule over the same space." "Our sages specifically encourage envy amongst Torah scholars. It says in the Talmud, the envy of the scholars increases wisdom." "The value of independent and critical thought is a powerful and important value that the world desperately needs."

Send us a text This episode delves into the profound essence of our existence, inspired by the ancient wisdom of the Ethics of the Fathers: "I have only been created to serve my Master." This episode navigates the purpose of creation and our role within it, guided by the teachings of Kabbalah and the foundational insights of Rabbi Schneur Zalman in Tanya. Listeners are invited to reflect on the divine desire for a "dwelling place in the lower worlds," exploring how this mission shapes our actions and intentions. Through the performance of the 613 Mitzvot, we bind every facet of our lives to the divine, transforming the mundane into a home for G‑d. This spiritual journey is not just about adhering to commandments but infusing them with love and awe, lighting up the physical world with the essence of spirituality. Rabbi Bernath unpacks the concept of G‑d's "desire" — beyond logic, urging us to fulfill His will simply because it is His wish, thereby transcending the limitations of our understanding and ego. The podcast emphasizes the dual purpose of our soul's descent: to refine the world and ourselves for a higher divine revelation, and to achieve personal elevation through the struggle and longing for the divine. The ultimate message is clear: our greatest mission and the most profound purpose of creation is to make this world a dwelling place for G‑d, transforming it with our deeds and intentions. Rabbi Bernath encourages us to navigate life's journey with this sacred task in mind, reminding us that in fulfilling this divine desire, we connect most intimately with the essence of G‑d, achieving the true purpose of our existence.

Send us a text In the story of the seventh plague, hail, Pharaoh finally admits he was wrong after seeing hail mixed with fire from the sky—a strange and powerful miracle. This moment shows us that even someone as stubborn and self-centered as Pharaoh can have a moment of realization. The mix of fire and ice in the hail represents Pharaoh's personality: cold and unfeeling towards others but fiery and passionate about his own needs. The reason the plague was hail is significant too. Egypt didn't depend on rain because of the Nile River, so they never looked up and depended on something higher than themselves. This is like Pharaoh's narcissism, where he only depended on himself and never considered a higher power or the needs of others. However, Pharaoh's realization was short-lived, teaching us that overcoming deep-seated selfishness requires more than just a moment of clarity. It needs a fundamental change in how one views themselves and their place in the world. Takeaways: Self-reflection is crucial: Even the most stubborn person can have moments of clarity. It's important to reflect on our actions and consider their impact on others. Empathy over ego: The story teaches the importance of caring for others, not just ourselves. Being aware of others' feelings and needs helps us grow as individuals. The role of humility: Recognizing a higher power or something greater than ourselves can help combat selfishness. It's a reminder that we're not the center of the universe. Change takes time: True change in character and perspective is not instantaneous; it requires continuous effort and humility. By learning from Pharaoh's mistake, we're reminded to stay empathetic, humble, and open to change, ensuring we don't fall into the trap of self-obsession.

Send us a text This episode dances around the age-old question, "What is Love?", the exploration begins with a universal quandary: the reason we question love's essence often stems from feelings of deficiency—either doubting the love from someone special or facing accusations of insufficient love ourselves. It suggests a poignant truth: we are most inclined to philosophize about love when its presence is questioned or feels lacking, much like no one questions the nature of a pastrami sandwich whilst enjoying one. The narrative then divides the quest into two lanes: "Am I Loved?" and "Do I Love?", indicating that understanding love's impact on us can illuminate how we express love towards others. Love, as presented, is not an elusive sentiment detected by a mysterious heart's sensor but rather a series of tangible experiences perceived through our senses, validated by actions and expressions that signal to our brains and, consequently, to our hearts, the presence of love. King Solomon's words in Proverbs "As water reflects a man’s face back to him, so is the heart of one man to another" is invoked to underscore that love, at its core, is a reflection, a reciprocal action that one can feel and recognize through the treatment they receive. The episode emphasizes that love is fundamentally an action. It shifts the narrative from abstract conceptualization to practical expression, illustrating that love, akin to running or swimming, is defined by its enactment. The Hebrew word for love, "ahavah", rooted in the act of giving, encapsulates this ideology, positing that genuine love must manifest through tangible acts of kindness and care. The discussion culminates with a divine perspective on love, referencing the commandment to love G-d, not as an emotional imposition but as a directive towards actionable love. This divine instruction echoes the broader theme: love is verified and validated through actions rather than mere feelings or declarations. Takeaways: Love as Reflection and Recognition: We seek the essence of love most acutely when its presence is in doubt. True love, however, is recognized through the actions and treatment we receive and give. Love is Action, Not Just Emotion: The essence of love is captured not in abstract contemplation but in concrete actions and behaviors that convey care and affection. The Divine Instruction on Love: The command to love God highlights the action-oriented nature of love, pushing us towards deeds of kindness as the true measure of love. In essence, to question "What is Love?" is to embark on a journey from doubt to action, from introspection to expression, leading us to understand that the truest answer lies in how we act and respond to love in our lives. Love, therefore, is not just a state of being but a series of deliberate, loving actions that reflect our deepest commitments to others. Support the show Got your own question for Rabbi Bernath?

Send us a text This episode delves into the profound teachings of Rabbi Schneur Zalman in the Tanya, illuminating the existence of two distinct souls within every Jew: the Nefesh HaBehamit, which animates the body with its base desires and instincts, and the Nefesh Elokit, a divine spark that transcends the material world, aiming to refine our lower nature. This spiritual journey reveals how the Nefesh Elokit, before descending into the world, is shown the vastness of the spiritual realms and the challenges it will face. It is charged with the mission to overcome these challenges and elevate the material world, transforming the Nefesh HaBehamit through adherence to divine commandments. The podcast explores the dynamic interplay between these two souls, their battle for influence over our actions, and the ultimate journey of the soul after death—facing judgment, undergoing purification in Gehinom if necessary, and then entering the World to Come to reap the rewards of its earthly efforts. Listeners will be guided through the layers of soul and world, understanding how through learning and mitzvot, a soul prepares for its eventual resurrection and the ultimate revelation of Divinity in the physical world. Rabbi Bernath's podcast offers a deep dive into the esoteric concepts of the soul's journey, resurrection, and the purpose of creation, inviting listeners to reflect on their own spiritual journey and the eternal efforts to create a dwelling place for the Divine in this world.

Send us a text Dive into Rabbi Bernath's podcast on Kabbalah, where he tackles the profound question of "why" we face crises, trauma, and loss. Kabbalah, with its mystical insights, offers a unique perspective through the concept of reincarnation and soul migration, as illuminated by the teachings of the Arizal in "Gate of Reincarnation." Learn about the soul's journey: an eternal entity pre and post life, striving to fulfill a divine purpose on Earth by adhering to Torah and Mitzvot. The podcast explores how souls undergo reincarnation to accomplish all 613 commandments, returning to earthly life to rectify sins, complete unfinished tasks, or master specific Mitzvot. Rabbi Bernath delves into historical and personal stories, like the expulsion of Jews from Spain, as examples of soul rectification over generations. He addresses the complexity of understanding tragic events, suggesting that while not all suffering can be explained, reincarnation offers a framework for some. This podcast serves as a spiritual guide, revealing how Kabbalah views life's challenges as part of a divine plan, leading to ultimate reconciliation and elevation of the soul.

Send us a text Navigating the choppy waters of our inner Nile, where the Pharaoh of Negative Thought reigns supreme, Rabbi Bernath offers a sage map for the modern soul's Exodus. Picture this: an inner Pharaoh, all ego and no ear, refusing the logic we offer as liberally as matzah at Pesach. It's an ancient tale, yet as current as our latest tweet. Enter Moshe, our timeless hero, speaking Hebrew to a Pharaoh who's as lost in translation as a tourist without Google Maps. The catch? It's not about the words, but the Divine energy they carry, slicing through stubbornness like a hot knife through butter. Consider the Chafetz Chaim, whose Yiddish plea melted Polish hearts without a single word understood—a testament to the soul's language, transcending the babble of Babel. Then there's the 7/38/55 rule, a reminder that our vibes speak louder than our vocabulary. The body's ballet and the tone's tune tell tales our tongues can't touch. So when faced with our own Pharaoh—be it doubt, fear, or the Sunday Scaries—Rabbi Bernath advises a strategy as bold as it is biblical: Speak in your soul's native tongue. No translation needed. For it's not the clarity of argument, but the purity of our Divine essence, that can topple tyranny within. In essence, Rabbi Bernath suggests, when logic's light dims and reason's ropes fray, it's time to unfurl the banner of our inherent holiness, declaring our truths in a language beyond words. Like Moshe, we stand before our inner Pharaoh not to debate, but to demonstrate—a conduit of Divine will, unyielding and unfiltered. In doing so, we don't just speak to our shadows; we illuminate them, transforming the inner Egypt into a land flowing with milk, honey, and the sweet freedom of self-mastery. So let's raise our staffs, part our personal Red Seas, and march towards a promised land of inner peace and purpose, one holy utterance at a time.

Send us a text In this inspiring episode, we dive into the heart of Purim Katan, a day that mirrors the messages of resilience and faith found in Purim itself, especially during leap years. We'll journey back to 1920, amidst the chaos of the Russian Revolution, to a moment of audacious defiance by the Lubavitcher Rebbe, Rabbi Sholom Ber Schneersohn, during a Purim Farbrengen. Despite the mortal danger presented by the Bolsheviks' intrusion, the Rebbe's fearless proclamation that "Judaism will never die" sets the stage for a story of miraculous survival and unwavering courage. We follow the legacy of bravery through to his son, Rabbi Yosef Yitzchak, during a similarly tense Purim Katan Farbrengen in 1927. His open challenge to the Soviets, emphasizing the importance of Jewish education and the spiritual warfare for the souls of Jewish children, showcases a breathtaking level of heroism and dedication to preserving Judaism at all costs. The narrative reaches a poignant climax with the Rebbe's dramatic arrest and subsequent liberation, a testament to the power of faith, international advocacy, and divine intervention. Fast forward 65 years to 1992, when the Lubavitcher Rebbe, Rabbi Menachem Schneerson, reiterates the call for self-sacrifice in the name of Judaism, urging not just a readiness to die for one's faith but to live with a sense of urgency and purpose towards spiritual growth and the hastening of the Moshiach. As we celebrate Purim Katan and reflect on these powerful stories of resilience, defiance, and hope, we are reminded of the legacy left by generations of Rebbes. Their lives and teachings inspire us to live with courage, to fight for what is right, and to dream of a world filled with peace, holiness, and kindness. Join us as we explore these themes and more, drawing lessons from the past that resonate with timeless relevance and urging us forward in our collective journey towards a brighter future.

Send us a text In this week’s Torah portion, Tetzaveh, we embark on a journey of absence that paradoxically illuminates presence, a mystical dance where what is not seen or heard whispers louder than the clamor of what is. Welcome to "Echoes of the Unseen," an episode that delves into the human penchant for fixating on the missing pieces, rather than the mosaic of abundance that surrounds us. Imagine, if you will, a family in mourning, enveloped by a community's embrace, yet fixated on the one who failed to show. Or a newly engaged couple, showered with well-wishes, yet stewing over a single absent congratulation. It's a peculiar focus, isn't it? Our hearts, like mischievous sprites, skipping over a hundred hellos to sulk over one silent goodbye. This brings us to the heart of our Torah reading. In a curious twist of fate, or perhaps divine choreography, Moses, our indefatigable leader, finds his name conspicuously absent from this week's parsha, Tetzaveh. A parsha that ironically, speaks of him more than any other, precisely because he is not mentioned. It's as if by omitting his name, the Torah invites us into a deeper engagement, prompting us to ponder, "Where is Moses?" The Rebbe, drawing on the insight of the Baal HaTurim, connects this to Moses' selfless plea to be erased from the divine narrative should his people not be forgiven. Thus, in a paradoxical act of presence through absence, Moses' name is etched deeper into the fabric of our collective memory. And so, as we approach Purim, we encounter another divine irony in the Scroll of Esther. Here, G-d's name is nowhere to be found, yet, like the story of Tetzaveh, G-d's presence is palpable in every line, every turn of fate. This hiddenness serves as a mirror to our lives, where divine orchestration often masquerades as coincidence, inviting us to seek the hidden hand that guides us. Through the lens of David and Jonathan's story, we are reminded of the potency of what is not said, what is not seen. David, the absent guest at Saul's table, becomes the focal point, his empty seat a silent testament to the turmoil and loyalty that defines his and Jonathan's bond. "Echoes of the Unseen" invites us to consider how absence shapes our perception, how the unseen and unsaid can sometimes speak the loudest. In the missing names and silent spaces, we find a call to presence, an invitation to see beyond the visible, to listen for the whispers of what is not spoken, and in doing so, perhaps understand the divine and human narratives more profoundly. So, as we navigate the landscapes of loss and love, let us embrace the peculiar focus, for in the spaces between, in the silence and the absence, lies the potential for deeper connection, understanding, and spiritual awakening.

Send us a text In today's episode, we dive into a profound tale shared by Chief Rabbi Sir Jonathan Sacks, a distinguished philosophy graduate from Cambridge University who found himself in a thought-provoking exchange while studying Hassidism in Kfar ChaBaD, Israel. The story opens a window into the contrast between secular and spiritual perspectives, highlighted by a conversation between Sacks and a Chassidic student. The student's insight, that while Sacks pondered the existence of G-d, he himself grappled with his role and purpose within G-d's design, sets the stage for our exploration of Kabbalistic concepts of Daat Elyon (Supernal knowledge) and Daat Tachton (terrestrial knowledge). We'll unravel how these perspectives invite us to consider our existence and the world around us not just as physical entities, but as manifestations of Divine energy. Inspired by the wisdom of Albert Einstein's E=MC2, we'll see how everything from the glass on our table to the vastness of the universe is interconnected by this Divine spark. This episode is not just a journey through the intellectual, but a meditation on the spiritual, urging us to recognize the unity and purpose in creation as expressed in the Shema Yisrael prayer and the intricate dance of the Divine in every aspect of our lives. Through the lens of Kabbalah and stories that bridge the gap between the heavenly and the earthly, we'll explore how creation is a dynamic, ongoing act of Divine speech, with each letter of the Hebrew alphabet playing a crucial role in the fabric of existence. This knowledge not only deepens our understanding of the world but also our place within it, emphasizing the importance of living with purpose, recognizing Divine providence in every moment, and the continuous creation that sustains us.

Send us a text This week’s sermon reflects on the resilience and unity of our community. The book 'Buried by the Times' sheds light on a past where the Holocaust's truth struggled to find its rightful place in public consciousness, hidden away in the back pages of history's draft. Yet, this story isn't just about what was buried; it's a call to unearth our collective strength and purpose. Parshat Yitro brings the powerful symbol of the shofar, reminding us that awakening and unity are at the heart of our journey. From the echoes of the Holocaust to the triumphs of the Six-Day War, we've seen the shofar's call to action in our own times, stirring us to remember, to unite, and to act with courage and love. As we reflect on our history, we see not just the challenges, but the incredible victories and the miracles that have shaped us. These stories teach us that it's not just about surviving; it's about thriving, about taking pride in our identity, and about moving forward with positive action. Let's carry this spirit into every aspect of our lives, embracing our heritage with joy and a commitment to making a difference. Together, we're not just remembering the past; we're building a future filled with light, learning, and love. — Donate Here | https://ndg.chabadsuite.net/civicrm/contribute/transact?reset=1&id=36 Donate Here in US dollars https://ndg.chabadsuite.net/civicrm/contribute/transact?reset=1&id=15 Download this little book and pray.

Send us a text This was recorded Sunday evening, as recording devices are not allowed on Shabbat. 🔍📜 Exploring Amalek: Ancient Hatred in Modern Times 🔍📜 In a recent, controversial lawsuit brought by South Africa against Israel at the International Court of Justice, the ancient biblical figure of Amalek has resurfaced in a modern geopolitical debate. Accusations of genocide hinge on Prime Minister Netanyahu's invocation of the Torah's command to "remember what Amalek did to you" in the context of Israel's stance against Hamas. This historical reference has sparked intense discussion and scrutiny, especially given the evidence presented, including a video of soldiers and statements from a Knesset member relating to Amalek. 🌍🕊️ Amalek's Legacy: From Biblical Times to Today's Struggles 🌍🕊️ Amalek, historically, was the grandson of Esau and is emblematic of baseless hatred towards the Jewish people. This enmity is deeply rooted in Jewish history, with the Amalekites attacking the Israelites unprovoked as they journeyed through the Sinai Desert after their exodus from Egypt. The Torah's recounting of this ancient conflict underscores a relentless, generational animosity that poses a perpetual challenge to peace and morality. The episode of Moses and Joshua battling Amalek, and the divine command to erase Amalek's memory, symbolizes the ongoing struggle against unfounded hatred and evil. 🤔💭 Contemporary Reflections: Understanding and Overcoming Doubt 🤔💭 In Chassidic thought, Amalek represents the concept of 'doubt' (safek), challenging faith and moral certainty. This allegorical interpretation urges introspection, especially in the context of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and the broader challenges facing the Jewish community. The internal convictions regarding the Land of Israel, its history, and its spiritual significance are critical in this discourse. The teachings emphasize the importance of nurturing a strong connection to Judaism and Torah, fostering a sense of belonging and purpose, as a means to counter the "spiritual Amalek" of our times. --- Donate Here | https://ndg.chabadsuite.net/civicrm/contribute/transact?reset=1&id=36 Donate Here in US dollars https://ndg.chabadsuite.net/civicrm/contribute/transact?reset=1&id=15 Download this little book and pray.

Send us a text In this thought-provoking episode, we delve into the profound Jewish philosophical question: Why did a benevolent G-d create evil? We explore this enigma through the lens of classical Jewish philosophy, Kabbalah, and Chassidus, unraveling how these teachings illuminate our understanding of good, evil, and divine purpose. The episode begins by addressing the fundamental belief that G-d is inherently good, yet paradoxically, He created a world where evil and injustice exist. We explore the concept that G-d's creation of the world was an act of bestowing goodness, with the ultimate goodness being G-d Himself. However, this gift required a setting where humankind could earn it, leading to the creation of a world of free choice, where choosing good over evil becomes a meaningful endeavor. Delving deeper, we discuss how this world serves as an arena for earning rewards in the World to Come (Olam Habah), where the soul, free from physical constraints, basks in divine light. Yet, the episode takes a turn, examining the Chassidic view that the ultimate purpose of creation is not just the World to Come, but to make a dwelling for G-d in this world. We explore the idea that the soul's descent into the physical world isn't a fall, but a mission to transform darkness into light. As we journey through the concepts of Kelipah (evil as a 'shell' or 'peel') and the division of the world into realms of holiness and impurity, the episode highlights the dynamic struggle between these forces. We emphasize the role of human choice in this cosmic battle, where every thought, speech, and action can elevate or degrade the soul. The episode also examines the Kabbalistic perspective on the origins of evil, discussing the World of Chaos (Tohu) and the Shattering of the Vessels (Shevirat HaKelim). This leads to a fascinating exploration of the process of Tikkun, or correction, where the fragmented sparks of holiness are elevated through human actions. We conclude with the transformative power of refining these sparks, especially through everyday acts like eating kosher food with the right intention, and how these actions contribute to the ultimate redemption in the days of Mashiach. This episode promises to offer a deep, insightful look at the interplay of light and darkness in our world and the divine purpose behind it, encouraging listeners to see their everyday choices as part of a grander divine plan.

Send us a text On Yud Shevat 5711 (1951), the Lubavitcher Rebbe, Rabbi MM Schneerson, revolutionized Jewish leadership. He declared a bold vision, not merely to anticipate Moshiach in a distant future, but to actively work towards this era in our lifetime. This audacious goal was set against the backdrop of post-Holocaust Jewish reality, challenging every Jew to contribute to this ultimate redemption. The Rebbe's approach to leadership was groundbreaking. He insisted on a partnership model, where he would guide, but each individual was responsible for their own spiritual and worldly contribution. This was exemplified in his Sunday interactions, where the simple act of giving a dollar for charity transformed recipients into 'shluchim,' agents of positive change and personal responsibility. The essence of the Rebbe's philosophy was beautifully encapsulated in his interaction with Gabriel Erem. Rather than focusing on his own greatness, the Rebbe redirected attention to the potential within every Jew. By redefining 'tzadik' and 'rebbe,' he democratized spiritual greatness, making it accessible to all. His teachings continue to inspire a vision where personal achievement and universal perfection are inextricably linked, empowering every Jew to be a leader in their own right.

Send us a text "What is Love?" Love is redefined beyond the conventional understanding of a mere emotion or a passive state of being. We emphasized that love is an obligation and a directive, as illustrated in Leviticus 19:18, which commands to "love your fellow as yourself." This idea suggests that love is not just a spontaneous feeling but an active choice and action. Before one can extend love to others, it's crucial to first develop a sense of love for oneself. This foundational self-love sets the stage for meaningful and authentic relationships with others. We further explored the idea that the essence of love is deeply rooted in the act of giving. It posits that love begins with giving and grows through consistent, thoughtful acts of kindness and generosity. This concept challenges the popular notion of love as a feeling that happens to us, suggesting instead that love is something we actively create through our actions. The more we give, the deeper our capacity for love becomes. This principle is encapsulated in the phrase, "First comes giving, then comes love," highlighting the transformative power of giving in cultivating and sustaining love. The chapter concludes by asserting that love is not just about feelings but about the deliberate and ongoing practice of giving, which ultimately shapes and strengthens our relationships.

Send us a text The weight of this year has been felt deeply by each of us. The challenges faced and the moments of introspection have led us on a quest for clarity, seeking ways to mend our hearts and those of the people around us. At the crossroads of introspection, we often ask: How do we truly forgive? What lessons are we meant to take forward, and what burdens should we lay down? We invite you to embark on a profound exploration with Rabbi Yisroel Bernath. Dive deep into the timeless wisdom and teachings on forgiveness, self-love, and the transformative power of the High Holidays. Event Highlights: Finding Meaning in Struggle: Deciphering the lessons of this challenging year and understanding its greater purpose in our lives. The Art of Letting Go: Tools and teachings on how to release pain, forgive others, and most importantly, forgive ourselves. Embracing Love: Cultivating self-love and extending that love to others. The Secrets of Healing: Learn simple, yet powerful techniques to promote healing for yourself and others as we welcome the new year. Who do we offer our forgiveness to, and how do we seek it in return? Join us for this transformative experience as Rabbi Bernath sheds light on these questions and guides us on a journey of renewal, understanding, and hope. Come with an open heart and leave with a spirit renewed. We look forward to welcoming you to this special gathering. Support the show Got your own question for Rabbi Bernath?

Known to be difficult, even impenetrable, its doors were closed to the general public for millenia. That is, until now - the study of Jewish mysticism is becoming more popular by the day. And you now have access to one of Montreal's leading teachers of Kabbalah, Rabbi Yisroel Bernath. Kabbalah actually has incredible secrets that can transform your daily life. This is your chance to connect to this incredible ancient wisdom and change your life for the better. No prior study or experience is required to join this class; just an open mind and a willingness to learn. About Rabbi Yisroel Bernath "La Rabbin de Lamour" -La Presse "Montreal's Hipster Rabbi" -Matty Matheson, VICELAND Cherished for his incredible warmth and non-judgmental personality, this hipster is not your typical rabbi. Rabbi Bernath has been teaching Kabbalah for 15 years and he is loved for his clarity, wit and his way making very difficult ideas clear and easy to integrate into your life. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/kabbalahforeveryone/message Support the show Got your own question for Rabbi Bernath?

Send us a text Recorded Live at Rohr Chabad NDG in Montreal, Canada. G-d is good and it is the nature of G- d to be good. So why did G-d create evil? Why do we live in a world which is full of injustice and where the wicked have the upper hand? Classical Jewish philosophy answers these timeless questions by stating that because G-d is good and it is His nature to do goodness, He created the world in order to bestow goodness upon His creations. The greatest possible goodness that G-d can bestow upon His creations is the goodness that is Himself.

Send us a text Recorded Live at Rohr Chabad NDG in Montreal, Canada. The Kabbalists associate the three worlds of Beriah , Yetzirah and Assiyah with the three faculties in Man of thought, speech, and action. Just as these three act as garments to the soul, the worlds of Beriah , Yetzirah, and Assiyah likewise act as garments to the Sefirot of Atzilut . Yetzirah is known as the world of speech. The Talmud states that “every word emanating from G‑d creates an angel.” The force that traverses the spiritual domain is what we call an angel, and when we speak of “G‑d’s word,” we are actually referring to His interaction with the lower worlds. We have also described it as a conduit or channel for Divine energy flow. In truth, there are many different types of angels. Some are created on a daily basis, and others are permanent with fixed names, such as Michael and Gabriel. The Midrash actually states different opinions as to which day during creation the angels were created, with debate as to whether it was the second or the fifth. Since all opinions are held as valid, we must say that they refer to different groups of angels with diverse functions.

Send us a text In order to visualize what happened after the initial Tzimtzum , Rabbi Chaim Vittal presents the following graphic: Imagine a circle, and the circle is full of the Or Ein Sof . No finite existence may be created within this circle for the Light of the Infinite totally occludes it. The Tzimtzum concealed the Or Ein Sof so that within the circle is left a void within which something finite can be created. The next stage of creation was the introduction into this circle of a beam of pre-Tzimztum light called the Kav. Contained within this Light were all the ingredients for the creation of the various worlds. The difference between a circle and a beam of Light is that the circle has no beginning and no end. Around its circumference one can move ad infinitum. The circle represents the Infinite Light of Sovev Kol Almin (the Light that surrounds all worlds), which is peripheral to all worlds. Hassidism calls it an Or Makkif (a transcendent Light). The Kav on the other hand is a line which has a beginning and an end. The Kav represents the chain of worlds in the post- Tzimtzum state in which there are higher worlds and lower worlds, rather like the various rungs of the ladder. In the higher worlds, the Light is very intense and G‑d’s presence is absolutely manifest. As the Kav progresses, the measure of Light is reduced further and G‑d’s presence becomes more concealed within the Vessels. At the center of the circle is this world. This is the lowest point of the line at which the Light is totally concealed within the physical creation.--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/kabbalahforeveryone/message Contact Rabbi Bernath at www.theloverabbi.com Donate and support Rabbi Bernath’s work http://www.jewishndg.com/donate Sign up for Rabbi Bernath's Relationships Podcast https://anchor.fm/the-love.../episodes/Love-Rabbi-QA-ecpnte Sign up for Rabbi Bernath’s Kabbalah Podcast https://anchor.fm/kabbalahforeveryone Follow Rabbi Bernath’s YouTube Channel https://www.youtube.com/user/ybernath Access Rabbi Bernath's Articles on Relationships https://medium.com/@loverabbi Support the show Got your own question for Rabbi Bernath?
