By performing Torah commandments with joy, as prescribed in this week’s parasha, and expressing our thanks to G-d for all His blessings, we become keenly aware that G-d is with us in all our endeavors, the ultimate validation of our lives.

Next Bat Melech: September 1, 2010 / Elul 22, 5770
Elul is a month that demands to be lived in every sense of the word. This is the month for recalibrating our souls, for being accountable to ourselves, and for becoming viable reflections of G-d’s presence in the world.

Biblical Faith – with Shmuel “Sam” Peak
Weekly series with new shows available every Tuesday.
Chapter 3 20
Everything is given on collateral, and a net is spread over all the living.
Rabbi Eliezer says that if a person, who having reached the stage of transformation from fear of sin where only one mitzvah is lacking, then acts from that one mitzvah which is the love for HaShem, then “Happy is he that he tilts the balance of himself and the whole world to the side of merit.”

Temple Talk is a weekly internet radio webcast with Rabbi Chaim Richman and Yitzchak Reuven of the Temple Institute.
This week features:
A Sneak Peak at Jim Long’s New Documentary, “Messiah Nation”
Elul and the Rumblings of War
The Secret Psychological War Against the Jews: Amalek and the Tactic of Nagging Self-Doubt
Famed Egyptologist, film maker, author of “Riddle of the Exodus,” noted Noahide Jim Long joins Rabbi Richman and Yitzchak Reuven in the studio this week for a lively discussion on the universal dimensions of Elul and the ramifications of the “King in the Field” for the whole world.
As the rumblings of war dominate the news in Israel and the shofar-blasts of Elul herald the war against the Evil Inclination, this week’s Torah portion of Ki Tetzei begins and ends with the concept of war: From the scenario of the “captive woman” to the attack of Amalek. What’s the connection between the beginning and the end? What is Amalek’s secret weapon, and how can Elul neutralize it? Tune in to this week’s Temple Talk for answers!

“For you go out to war against your enemies, and HaShem, your G*d, will deliver him into your hands…” (Deut. 21:10) Some wars are guaranteed victories, while others, (“If you go to war in your land against an adversary that oppresses you…” Numbers 10:9) threaten to be unmitigated disasters. What basic military doctrines is Torah teaching us, and what basic attributes of love for the land and faith in G*d are required of our leaders?
Ki Teitzei (Deuteronomy 21:10-25:19)

Next week on Light to the Nations:
Palm of Deborah, Part IV
Our sages teach that “whoever commits a sin, acquires an accuser for himself.” These are negative forces that become our persecutors, and we actually create these forces through our own misdeeds. They are nourished through our misguided energy and unless we act to correct the situation, they will rise up to accuse us. G-d “bears the iniquity” of these accusers, which we have brought into the world, who pollute His creation.
