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 IX
Our sages tell us that when we lose our temper and allow ourselves to act out of anger, we are succumbing to a form of idolatry. Conversely, by emulating G-d, and allowing our anger to be transformed into patience and forbearance, we are elevating ourselves and bringing G-d into our lives.
Dedication: Dedicated to Christi & Richard Hoerster.

Temple Talk is a weekly internet radio webcast with Rabbi Chaim Richman and Yitzchak Reuven of the Temple Institute.
This week features:
Mar Cheshvan, Lech Lecha, the Rambam and the Faith Connection
The Original Man of Faith
All about the theme of faith, which shows up everywhere, all around us: It’s the backdrop of everything associated with the month of Mar Cheshvan, as well as the Torah portions and the career of our illustrious forefather Avraham. And the great Maimonides’ historic pilgrimage to the Temple Mount that took place this week, 835 years ago, was also an aspect of his undying faith that the Holy Temple would be rebuilt as he was to write, years later, in his classic Misahneh Torah.

The book of Genesis opens, and the generations of man just whir by. By the time the reading of Lech Lecha begins twenty generations have passed. And then the pace slows down as Torah begins to describe the life and work of our father Avraham. What made Avraham unique? How was he different from all those that had come before him? Why was G-d pleased with Avraham?
Lech Lecha (Genesis 12:1-17:27)
Parashat Lech Lecha is read on Shabbat:

Temple Talk is a weekly internet radio webcast with Rabbi Chaim Richman and Yitzchak Reuven of the Temple Institute.
This week features:
Out of the Sukkah, and into the rain, we welcome Mar Cheshvan, a month of great potential and the month of the third Holy Temple.
The elusive and enigmatic month of Mar Cheshvan arrives this Friday and Shabbat, and coming on the heels of the action-packed month of Tishrei, at first glance appears disappointing … until we begin to understand what can really happen in Mar Cheshvan if only we are ready.
As we reflect upon the Sukkot that was and its theme of water, and as we read this week’s Torah portion of Noah and the flood, we also realize that this month of Cheshvan begins the rainy season in the Land of Israel. It is also the month that the floodwaters began to fall back in the days of Noah. But the Land of Israel brings the blessing of water to the entire world, and will one day serve as the “Noah’s ark” for all humanity … tune into this week’s Temple Talk as Yitzchak Reuven and Rabbi Richman talk about creation and renewal, the Holy Temple, and the cycles of time that we are all a part of.

All of creation is informed and animated by an overwhelming yearning for G-dliness, and man is no exception. This elemental necessity of existence binds and unifies our world. It is present in the final words of Deuteronomy, which we read on Simchat Torah, and it is present in the opening words of Genesis. It is when the generation of Noach loses its way and seeks to create a world without G-d that the trouble starts.
Noach (Genesis 6:9-11:32)
Parashat Noach is read on Shabbat:
Rosh Chodesh Cheshvan, 5771/October 9, 2010
