• Parshas Acharei Mos & Kedoshim: Holiness Through Habit

  Parshas Acharei Mos & Kedoshim: Holiness Through Habit What does it mean to live a holy life? This week’s Parsha shows us that holiness isn’t found in grand gestures—it’s shaped by the small, consistent choices we make each day. The Ramban calls Shabbos the anchor of Jewish faith. The Ohr HaChaim teaches that holiness begins in the quiet moments—in the atmosphere we build, in the values we live. In honor of Eretz Yisroel. May G-d protect our brave soldiers and return all the hostages. In loving memory of Edward Ben Efraim, Shlomo Ben Edward, and Yirachmiel Daniel Ben Gedalia.

• Parshas Shemini: Called to Lead

  Parshas Shemini: Called to Lead On the eighth day of the Mishkan’s inauguration, Aaron steps into his new role—but not without fear. Why does the Torah say his offering must be “for you”? The Ohr HaChaim and Rashi teach that true leadership begins with personal accountability. Before Aaron could serve the nation, he had to believe he was worthy. This episode explores how real growth starts with sincerity, not perfection. We’re not called to lead because we’re flawless—we’re called because we’re willing to show up real. In honor of Eretz Yisroel – May G-d protect our brave soldiers and return all the hostages in Gaza immediately. Dedicated in loving memory of: Edward Ben Efraim | Shlomo Ben Edward | Yirachmiel Daniel Ben Gedalia For the Refuah Shlema of: Pesha Henna Bas Yitta Gittel and Pennina Bas Miriam Shoshana 🔗 Listen now: ParshaPerspective.com

• Forward Into Light: The Pesach Perspective

  Forward Into Light: The Pesach Perspective Pesach is more than a story of the past—it’s a mission for the present. True freedom is not just leaving Egypt, but choosing to live with purpose. The Rebbe teaches that freedom isn’t comfort—it’s commitment. Each mitzvah, each step, brings the world closer to redemption. As we sit at the Seder, we don’t just remember the Exodus—we embody it, reclaim it, and move forward into light. Especially this year, as pain and purpose collide, may we be the generation that doesn’t just repeat history—but completes it. Refuah Shlema for: Pnina bas Shoshana Miriam and all who need healing. Dedicated in loving memory of: Edward Ben Efraim | Shlomo Ben Edward | Yirachmiel Daniel Ben Gedalia 🔗 Listen now: ParshaPerspective.com

• Parshas Vayikra: Essence Over Ego

  Parshas Vayikra: Essence Over Ego Why does the Torah forbid yeast and honey in offerings, but require salt? The Rambam teaches it’s to distance us from idol worship. But the Lubavitcher Rebbe reveals something deeper: yeast and honey represent ego and external sweetness, while salt represents truth, humility, and inner essence. When we approach G-d, we don’t need performance—we need presence. We prepare for redemption not by adding more, but by returning to who we truly are. The most powerful offerings come not from ego, but from essence. In honor of Eretz Yisroel – May G-d protect our brave soldiers and return all the hostages in Gaza immediately.
