This week features:
Noah the Compassionate: Sleepless on the Ark
The Month of MarCheshvan: Water, Faith, Disappointment… and The Best is Yet to Come
In this week’s Torah portion of Noach, we read about the Generation of the Flood, whose fate for destruction was sealed. They are considered to be the most depraved generation of all time, characterized by selective justice, cognitive dissonance, and institutionalized immorality. Sound familiar? Switch to the majority of contemporary Western society. This week’s edition of Temple Talk finds our hosts delving deeply into the nature of water, faith, the Great Flood, and more. Yitzchak Reuven and Rabbi Richman also help us get ready for next Monday, the sixth day of MarCheshvan, the day upon which the illustrious Rambam risked it all just to be able to pray on the Temple Mount. That day is now celebrated by Temple Mount advocates as a day of unity and joy. Tune into this week’s Temple Talk for inspiration and information!
