Light to the Nations – with Rabbi Chaim Richman of The Temple Institute.
Weekly series with new teachings available every Thursday.
Holiness in this World: Maimonides’ Hilchot Beit HaBechirah - Laws of the Chosen House, chapter VII: The Holy of Holies, the holiest place on earth: What is holiness? How can we become holy? Can a place or time be imbued with sanctity? Torah teaches us an emphatic yes to all these questions. And the soul/time/space nexus where the holiest moment of the year, (Yom Kippur), and the holiest spot on earth , (the Holy of Holies), and the individual who represents the holiest possibility of man, (the Kohen Gadol – High Priest), meet and merge together is nothing less than the entire purpose of creation.

Weekly series with new teachings available every Thursday.
On the Temple Mount: Maimonides’ Hilchot Beit HaBechirah - Laws of the Chosen House, chapter VII: The ten levels of sanctity of the land of Israel continue to increase in sanctity upon the Temple Mount. Not only is a person with tamei met - spiritual impurity caused by contact with a dead body - allowed upon the Temple Mount plaza, but even a dead body itself is allowed on the Mount. However, the tamei met person is forbidden by penalty of karet - spiritual excise from the Jewish people - within the confines of the Temple Courtyards.

Scholarly Temple teaching meets head on with extremely current events: The Two Bezichin: With the two newly created golden frankincense vessels in hand, Rabbi Richman describes their use in the weekly avodah - service - of the twelve loaves of the showbread, which took place within the Kodesh Sanctuary of the Holy Temple. The miraculous nature of the showbread contains a spiritual message relevant to us all.

Light to the Nations – with Rabbi Chaim Richman of The Temple Institute.
Weekly series with new teachings available every Thursday.
Today we celebrate Shavuot, the day in which the nation of Israel first received Torah at Sinai, with an all-night total immersion in Torah study. Yet, this aspect of Shavuot is not even mentioned in Torah, and the central avodah - worship - in the Holy Temple - was the bringing of the bikkurim - first fruits. How do we explain this seeming discrepancy? How can we get back to the Torah of the land of Israel?
Light to the Nations teachings are now available in mp3 audio files, and can be accessed through iTunes.
