The topics in this week’s 482nd episode of the highly acclaimed MyLife: Chassidus Applied series, with Rabbi Simon Jacobson, will include:
What more can we do to help win the war that continues to rage on?
– Why have all our beautiful, good deeds not ended the war?
– After all that we have done, can we demand that G-d finally put an end to this nightmare?
With the passing of Cantor Tzvi Tzazkes, what can you share about his connection with the Rebbe?
– What is the meaning of the song ech ti zimlak that the Rebbe instructed him to sing on various occasions?
What lessons can we learn from Chof Beis Shevat?
– What does this day offer us?
– What lessons can we learn from the Rebbetzin about how to win the war against Hamas and their antisemitic supporters?
– Why do people refer to the Rebbetzin as the Frierdiker Rebbe’s daughter or the Rebbe’s wife instead of describing her in her own right?
– What did the Rebbe mean when he said marrying the Rebbetzin bound him to the chassidim:
Wasn’t the Rebbe already bound to the chassidim by being a descendant of the Tzemach Tzedek?
– Did the Rebbe explain the significance of her passing in connection with the number eleven – on the 22nd day (twice 11) in the 11th month?
– Is there a connection between the Basi L’gani maamar and the 15th and 22nd of Shevat?
What does this week’s Torah portion teach us about today’s war?
– What do we learn from the central theme of this parsha?
– Why were only 10 of the 613 commandments said at Sinai?
– If the 10 commandments frightened the Jews even when they heard it directly from G-d, how can we expect to embrace Torah and mitzvos on an ongoing basis?
– Did the Jews accept the Torah with joy?
– How does G-d observe the mitzvah of honoring parents?
Lessons from Beshalach
– Will civil war break out among Hamas as it did among the Egyptians?
– Why did they lie to Phraoah about leaving Egypt for several day when they never intended to return? Can we learn anything from this in our war with Hamas?
– How does the manna manifest today in our livers?
– Why don’t we say the parsha of manna every day?
Can we use AI to teach Torah and Chassidus?
Is it dangerous to send our children to college?
