Temple Talk
Temple Talk is a weekly internet radio webcast with Rabbi Chaim Richman and Yitzchak Reuven of the Temple Institute.
This week features:
The Clash of Civilizations
Coming to Your Town Soon: The Battle Between Good and Evil
This week’s Torah portion of parashat Va’eira features seven of the Ten Plagues. Towards the end of the portion, the Pharoah finally seems to be having a sincere change of heart, declaring ‘This time I have sinned; G-d is the righteous one, and I and my people are the wicked ones.’ But it turned out that he was just up to his tricks again, and he quickly reverted back to his old self – total denying G-d. As the world mourns and expresses shock and outrage over last week’s terror attacks in France, Temple Talk’s Yitzchak Reuven and Rabbi Richman present a searing, difficult and brutally honest analysis of these current events. There’s no mincing of words here, and there’s no going back: either the world comes to its senses, or plunges irrevocably into the gaping abyss of insatiable evil.

This week features:
Identity and Destiny
The Book of Exodus: What is bondage and what is freedom?
This week we begin the second book of the Torah, the book of Exodus, which tells of the formation of Israel’s identity as a nation with a unique destiny. But the Torah is alive, and the account has a contemporary ring: questions, parallels and recurring themes abound. This week’s Temple Talk features a lively discussion of the essence ancient and modern bondage, and the paradigm of true freedom which the Torah beckons and guides us to achieve.

Tevet: Light and Darkness
Three Days in Tevet: Education, Leadership, and Rebuilding
As the book of Genesis comes to a close this week with the reading of parashat Vayechi, the stage is set for the Egyptian bondage to begin… and ultimately, the redemption of Israel. At the same time this week, the major themes of this Hebrew month of Tevet are manifest in the three days of the 8th, 9th and 10th which are traditionally associated with tragedy. Tune in for a fast-paced, exceptionally informative edition of Temple Talk, as Yitzchak Reuven and Rabbi Chaim Richman connect the dots between the past, present and future of Israel, and bring new relevance and contemporary meaning to the month of Tevet.

Our sages teach that all the spiritual power and potential for growth that Chanukah brings, is packed into the last day of the holiday, known as ‘Zot Chanukah’. This week’s inspiring edition of Temple Talk focuses on the life-changing lessons of Chanukah for this generation… the generation that is closer than ever to the rebuilding of the Holy Temple. It’s all about transforming dreams into reality, fixing blurry vision, and recognizing our brothers… and each other.

Chanukah: Making Miracles Happen
What is the source of the powerful light of Chanukah?
Reunited in Jerusalem after a break of several weeks, Yitzchak Reuven and Rabbi Richman are back together for this week’s moving edition of Temple Talk. Our hosts present a Chanukah tour de force, including a revised definition of the nature of a miracle. What constitutes a miracle today, and what was the Chanukah miracle really all about? For a deeper, yet practical understanding, the perplexed need look no further than to our very own generation. This week’s Temple Talk provides a preview into an unprecedented and historic step towards the resumption of the service in the Holy Temple: the Temple Institute’s production of pure olive oil for the Temple menorah, created according to all the complex laws of Biblical purity. A modern-day Chanukah miracle!

This week features:
Massacre In Jerusalem
The Muslim View On Jewish Prayer: On The Temple Mount – Or In A Har Nof Synagogue
This week’s Torah portion of Toldot tells of the conflict between Yaakov and Esav that began while yet in their mother Rivka’s womb. The implications of this dichotomy, bespeaking worlds in collision, seem to have endless repercussions that reverberate for all eternity. This week’s sobering edition of Temple Talk was recorded just hours after a horrible massacre was perpetrated by Arab terrorists in a Jerusalem neighborhood synagogue during morning prayers, leaving four Jews murdered, and many wounded. A shaken Yitzchak Reuven and Rabbi Richman examine the not-so-silent Third Intifida, Israel’s dire need of authentic leadership not dependent on Esav’s favors, and the connection between Jewish prayer on the Temple Mount, and Jewish prayer in a neighborhood synagogue.
NOTE TO ALL OUR LISTENERS: Temple Talk will be breaking for three weeks. The next edition of Temple Talk will be broadcast, with G-d’s help, on Kislev 24 – Dec. 16th, 2014.

Meet Public Enemy Number One
The Prophet Isaiah Vs. Woody Allen: Exile Mentality And The ‘Jewish Problem’
As the bloodthirsty demon of Arab terror once again raises its ugly head this week and claims innocent Jewish lives, the public debate over infraction of the ‘status quo’ on the Temple Mount reaches a deafening, uncivil, and disproportionate level. Its the old game of blaming the victim, with some going so far as to say that the Jews who want to pray peacefully on the Temple Mount, are causing all the problems. Yitzchak Reuven and Rabbi Richman, proud to be Public Enemy Number One, express their indignation over such twisted logic. This week’s searing-hot edition of Temple Talk is a veritable guide for anyone perplexed over the role of the Temple Mount in Jerusalem’s ‘silent intifada’ that has now boiled over into other parts of the country. Rabbis and politicians beware! This week’s Temple Talk spares no one in its commitment to the truth… Israel’s return to fully embrace the Temple Mount is the hope of all mankind!
