Archive for Nisan / Iyar 5773 - April 2013
Try imagining a world where every word counts, where every thought and intention counts. This is the very world that G-d created and intended for His children to sanctify. This is the world described in Tazria-Metzora. It is a world that we can and should aspire to.
Tazria-Metzora (Leviticus 12:1-15:33)

Sefirat HaOmer: Counting, Shining, Telling the Story of Our Own Lives
In an unprecedented episode of Temple Talk dedicated to the sanctity of time and the dynamics of Redemption, Yitzchak Reuven and Rabbi Richman deliver a passionate lesson about the Counting of the Omer, the month of Iyar and the State of Israel. This sprawling panorama of Jewish history spans from the building of the First Temple which King Solomon began during this very month, up to our very day… with the establishment of the State of Israel and the reunification of Jerusalem as the living proof of the healing power of the month of Iyar.

We cannot make eternal the holiness of the moment by abandoning ourselves to it. We master and make eternal the holiness of the moment by infusing the minutiae of our everyday lives with holiness. This is the lesson we take away from the untimely deaths of Nadav and Avihu, the holy sons of Aharon.

Biblical Faith – with Shmuel “Sam” Peak
Emunah channel is here. For Info www.torahfaith.org
The proper way for a servant in this world to act toward his master, who bestowed upon him even a small portion of bounties your Creator has bestowed upon you, includes serving him exclusively, in word and in deeds; faithfulness to him and dedication in his affairs, both outwardly and inwardly; and awe and fear of him, so long as he is in his service. As one of the pious ones put it: “Do not rebel against your master while he is looking at you.” Also, the servant should be lowly and humble before his master, in his external actions and in the privacy of his conscience. He should bear himself with humility before him, in his dress and in his mode of conduct. He should honor him; exalt him with his tongue and his heart; praise and thank him by day and by night; recall his beneficence in private and in public; recount his glory and praise as befits him; run to do his service with joy and good intentions, out of love for him, to find favor before him, to draw near to his will.

Passover to Shavuot via the Omer: The Long and Winding Road
Return the Temple Mount to the Jewish People!
The month of Redemption and the lessons of Passover continue to take center stage on Temple Talk, as an emotionally-charged Yitzchak Reuven recounts his very special Passover experience with a lamb in the house that challenged him to rethink everything. His sensitive story is a beautiful and measured taste of the Torah’s intentions in the bringing of offerings to the Holy Temple.
It’s that time of year again: sefirat ha-omer, the counting of the days and weeks leading up to the Giving of the Torah at Shavuout, days that present a unique spiritual opportunity. But before we delve into its mystery, let’s get the calendar straight!
