Temple Talk is a weekly internet radio webcast with Rabbi Chaim Richman and Yitzchak Reuven of the Temple Institute.
This week features:
A Time to Weep, a Time to Build
The State of Israel, the Redemption, and the Holy Temple: Rise
and Shine, Jewish People!
On Tisha B’Av, the day of mourning and national tragedy, Rabbi Richman and Yitzchak Reuven ascended the holy Temple Mount together with hundreds of Jews of all ages and backgrounds, searching for understanding on this spiritually-powerful day. We all know that the prophets of Israel assure us this day of sadness will be transformed into a day of rejoicing. But we wonder: How? When? Today, on top of Mount Moriah, in the very place that the Holy Temple was sacked and destroyed nearly 2,000 years ago, we discovered the answer: It is the Jewish people themselves who will make this prophecy come true. It is the nation of Israel who will decide that they have had their fill of mourning, and are ready to rebuild. Rabbi Richman and Yitzchak recorded this special edition of Temple Talk just after descending from the mountain, and they share their unforgettable experiences and impressions from this historic and unprecedented Tisha B’Av visit to the most sacred site in the world.

Bat Melech – with Rena Richman
Bat Melech teachings appear every second Wednesday.
Next Show: Women of the Desert, Part 3
The women of the desert and the feminine spiritual energy, strength and determination that they were able to tap into and channel enabled them to shepherd the entire generation out of the holocaust of Egypt, throughout the forty years of the wilderness experience, and ultimately into the land of Israel.
This lesson was originally recorded in Dallas, Texas, and is being presented on UTN in four parts.
Dedication: This show is dedicated to all the Noahides we met in Dallas.
TODA RABA / Thank You all so much!

Menachem Av: Father Knows Best & the Best is Yet to Be
Stop Your Sobbing Israel, Pick Yourself Up Off the Floor, The Still Small Voice Says Build!
It is the month of Av and the perennial housing shortage in Israel is once again making waves as protesters are taking to the streets. But this year’s righteously indignant ringleaders are the very same people representing the very same organizations that exactly six years ago orchestrated and applauded the forced homelessness of ten thousand Jewish souls from Gush Katif. Yes, these are the same folks that fight to destroy every Jewish house, kindergarten, synagogue or gazebo that a Jew, any Jew, dares to build in Judea and Samaria. Yes, these are the very same self-indulgent cadres that wage war against Jewish neighborhoods in the heart of Jerusalem. And yes, these are the very same hire political guns who DO NOT WANT TO BUILD A HOUSE FOR HASHEM! These would-be architects of a G-dless world possess a mixed-multitude of college degrees, but anyone who has taken Housing 101 knows that the root and the cause of all our housing ailments is in the fact that we still have not solved our Creator’s housing problem. The prophet Chaggai said it best: “Is it a proper time for you yourselves to sit in your ceiled houses, when this house is in ruins?” Tough words of rebuke, but uttered with love in our hearts!

The book of Deuteronomy opens with Moses’ rebuke of Israel: strong, yet couched in subtle and gentle terminology, in order to spare Israel embarrassment or discomfort, yet nevertheless impart an important teaching for the nation. Always read on the first Shabbat of the month of Menachem Av, (literally the “comforting father”), Moses’ words reflect the essence of the month of Av, a month of stern rebuke for Israel, but also a month which offers loving compassion and comfort for Israel by G-d.
Devarim (Deuteronomy 1:1-3:22)
Parashat Devarim is read on Shabbat:
Av 6, 5771/August 6, 2011

Light to the Nations – with Rabbi Chaim Richman
Weekly series with new teachings available every Thursday.
Next week on Light to the Nations:
The Temple Offerings, Part VI
The month of Tammuz has been marked for the past two thousand years of Jewish history by weeping and mourning for the Holy Temple. Is our mourning constructive, ultimately empowering us to rise up from off the floor and rebuild the Holy Temple, as our sages originally intended it to be, or have we fallen into the tragedy trap of mourning for the sake of mourning? Rabbi Richman explores the ancient world’s celebration of the cult of weeping, and Torah’s age old battle against the victory of defeat.
Dedication: Dedicated in celebration of Benjamin and Kaitlin’s marriage. Mazal tov!
