Light to the Nations – with Rabbi Chaim Richman
Weekly series with new teachings available every Thursday.
Next week on Light to the Nations:
The Pilgrimage Experience
Torah lists twelve stones to be engraved and placed upon the breastplate of the High Priest. How are we to ascertain the true identity of each individual stone? Why even the most ancient of Jewish sources, the three Aramaic translations of Torah seem to disagree on which stones are to be used. And even the greatest Torah sages of old seem to be proposing different stones and even different sets of criteria for determining the stones. In this show, Rabbi Richman reveals why the Great Rambam could state with such unabashed aplomb that the identity of the stones as described by Torah are self-evident.
Dedication: This show is dedicated to Janet & Gary Shaw.

Biblical Faith – with Shmuel “Sam” Peak
Weekly series with new shows available every Tuesday.
Chapter 3 Mishnah 8 & 9
In the study of Torah these steps are recommended:
- Full existence is found only with matters of sechel (intellect).
- Torah is sechel, and therefore Torah is referred to as “your life and the length of your days.”
- Things that inherently belong together do not separate from each other. For that reason, separating from something demonstrates opposition to it.
- Therefore, one who separates from Torah opposes life, and one who opposes life certainly places their life at risk.
G-d commands the children of Israel to observe the sabbatical year by letting the land of Israel rest. This act of sanctifying the land by placing our total faith in G-d, grants us the peace we so fervently desire.
