Light to the Nations – with Rabbi Chaim Richman
Weekly series with new teachings available every Thursday.
Next week on Light to the Nations:
Palm of Deborah, Part X

What is the nature of true prayer? Do our words and thoughts have the power to effect change? True prayer in its rarest and most precious form is the yearning of the heart. These feelings of yearning form an unseen yet tangible connection between us all, binding us to each other and in turn to every aspect of creation.

Dedication: Dedicated to Brian & Benjamin Spitz.

Dedication: Dedicated to Chaya Yocheved Kude.

Temple Talk
Temple Talk is a weekly internet radio webcast with Rabbi Chaim Richman and Yitzchak Reuven of the Temple Institute.

This week features:

The Vatican Synod: Princes of Darkness, Cloaked in Hypocrisy

Chosen People: Chosen for What?

This Just In, World: The One G-d of Israel Doesn’t Change His Mind: Deal With It!

This week is Parashat Chayei Sarah, which opens up with our forefather Avraham’s purchase of the “Double Cave” in Hebron. Why does Torah emphasize this so much, and what is our connection to this mysterious, ancient place? When it comes to Hebron, Jerusalem and Shechem the Torah cries out “Show me the money!” This week Temple Talk examines the Jewish people’s connection (“connection” is the very meaning of the word Hebron) to this ancient Jewish city, especially in the light (or should we say, darkness) of this week’s statements issued by the Synod of Catholic bishops which essentially “cancels” promises made by G-d to our father Avraham, to all the patriarchs, to Moses and to the entire people of Israel. What exquisite timing! What better week to cast doubt on the Biblical connection to our homeland, than the very week in which Torah testifies to that connection! We’re not even surprised. Rabbi Richman almost has apoplexy live on Temple Talk but the show goes on!

Biblical Faith – with Shmuel “Sam” Peak

Weekly series with new shows available every Tuesday.

Chapter 4   Mishnah 5

Rabbi Yochanan ben Beroka: Whoever desecrates the Name of Heaven in secret…

Since chillul haShem, by definition, causes others to deny G-d’s involvement with the world, how is it possible to desecrate His Name in secret? Who will see? Who will deny G-d’s concern with sin?

One example would be ten Torah scholars assembled in a house, and one stole something. Everyone knows that a Torah scholar stole, but no one knows precisely who the culprit is. Although his identity is a secret at the time that the he desecrates G-d’s Name, by the time of his punishment events will unfold iv a way that all will know who it was.

Temple Talk
Temple Talk is a weekly internet radio webcast with Rabbi Chaim Richman and Yitzchak Reuven of the Temple Institute.

This week features:

The Lives of Abraham and Isaac are Today’s Headlines

The Binding of Isaac & the Holy Temple

The Real Life Drama Taking Place Today on the Temple Mount: What is True Reverence for G-d?

Remember Gary Hobson on TV’s “Early Edition?” The guy who always got tomorrow’s paper today? Well, Temple Talk goes one step better, but without the cat! Temple Talk is really a special news program, because we bring you tomorrow’s news… yesterday. Does that make sense? What a twist! Every week when we study the weekly Torah portion we are really deciphering the news of the day, and these weeks of the book of Genesis which describe the lives of our holy forefathers Abraham and Isaac elucidate today’s news, as well as provide an understanding of Jewish purpose and destiny.

The future Holy Temple figures prominently in the story of the binding of Isaac, in more ways than one…and the conflict between Isaac and Ishmael, between Torah and Islam is being clarified and rectified in that very place… “as it is said, on the mountain Hashem will be seen” (Gen. 22:14).
