Temple Institute Shows
Temple Talk is a weekly internet radio webcast with Rabbi Chaim Richman and Yitzchak Reuven of the Temple Institute.
This week features:
Israel by (the Book of ) Numbers: Preparing to Enter the Land
Barack Obama’s Middle East Spring: Out of Touch with Reality or in Cahoots with Evil?
As the Israelites fall into formation around the Holy Tabernacle in the opening chapters of the Book of Numbers, preparing to march into, conquer, OCCUPY and fill the land of Israel with the Torah of Israel in accordance with the will of the G-d of Israel, 4000 years later, (and simultaneously), Rabbi Chaim Richman and Yitzchak Reuven stand shoulder to shoulder defending Israel and her homeland against the brazen voodoo “peace” policies of President Barack Hussein Obama, who seeks liberty and justice for all – for all but the Jews of Israel, that is!

Following a brief hiatus, (the book of Leviticus, which instructs us how to live in this world with G-d ), it’s on the road again for the children of Israel, as the book of Numbers begins. Israel, in the desert, is marching as one man heading toward the land of Israel. But can they maintain their unity? Their commitment to G-d’s vision for them? Can we of this generation? They had their ups and downs, but they finally did make it through to the land. We have our own ups and downs, but we shall make it, too.

Bat Melech – with Rena Richman
Bat Melech teachings appear every second Wednesday.
Next on Bat Melech: The Story of Ruth: Part II: May 25, 2011
Ruth, the story of the Moabite princess who attached herself to the Jewish nation and the G-d of Israel, is traditionally read in synagogues on the upcoming festival of Shavuoth. Rena Richman reveals fascinating midrashic insights into the historical background of the story, focusing on the unique personalities of Ruth, Naomi, and Boaz. These three individuals together create the foundations of the Davidic dynasty. We will be reposting this 4 part series over the next four weeks, leading up to the Shavuot celebration.
Bechukotai, the concluding parasha of the book of Leviticus, is all about the blessings that Israel will receive when she performs G-d’s will and the “curses” or admonitions that she will incur when she doesn’t perform G-d’s will. Leviticus, more than any other of the five books of Torah, reflects how G-d wishes to be related to by man. It is only fitting then, that the book should conclude with a question posed by G-d: How does man wish to be related to by G-d? Do we want to bring G-d into our world and thereby receive His blessings? Or do we wish to relate to G-d only “casually” and thereby bring upon ourselves endless admonitions?
Bechukotai (Leviticus 26:3-27:34)
Parashat Bechukotai is read on Shabbat:

“For out of Zion shall go forth Torah and the word of G-d from Jerusalem.” (Isaiah 2:3)
What is our connection to the Torah? What is a true Torah experience? The Torah is not about information. It is not about amassing more and more knowledge. Torah is about transformation. It is about becoming a different person. It is about the world becoming a different world.

This week features:
Concluding Leviticus: The Book of For G-d’s Sake
Pesach Sheni: The Day Amalek Attacked and the Holiday of Second Chances
The book of Leviticus concludes with a list of admonitions for Israel. How simple, how sweet and complete are our lives in the land of Israel, G-d’s property, if we but follow His word and perform His commandment. Security, prosperity and peace are ours! But should we slip, the litany disasters which will befall Israel and the shame and of opprobrium which will be ours, is long and arduous. But G-d neither forgets nor regrets His covenant with Israel. The second chances which G-d allows us as individuals and as a people, are also reflected in this week’s observation of Pesach Sheni – The Second passover. And… Rabbi Richman’s upcoming USA speaking tour!
