Our nation commits the most grievous sin of our history in this week’s parsha. A mere 40 days after we experienced the national revelation at Sinai, the nation made the Golden Calf and began to worship it. How did such a catastrophe happen? When we examine the sin very carefully we find a pattern that repeats itself all over Jewish history and literature and that contains a timeless lesson that will change your life!

How important are we? Do we even matter? What difference does it make if I live of die? What difference can one person make in the grand scope of existence? These are tough existential questions that thinking people grapple with. In this thought provoking podcast, we follow the Mishnah in exploring some these advanced questions.

When farmers in Israel produce a crop, they are subject to a series of tithes before that can consume the fruits of their labor. What are the various tithes and how are they disbursed?

Can we find evidence for the divinity of the Torah? Is there proof that the Torah is from God? That is the question that we are pondering on the TORAH 101 podcast recently. In the previous episodes we examined Torah as an outsider and asked the question, “can this be written by man?” In this life-changing episode we plunge deep into the heart of Torah and examine it from within. When immerged in the center of Torah, an entirely different picture emerges. From an immanent perspective, the divinity of the Torah stares at us in the face. Are we brave enough to look?

At the conclusion of Shabbat each week, Jewish families worldwide make the Havdalah ceremony. They take a cup of wine, some spices, and a fiery TORCH, and recite the four blessings of the Havdalah. What is the secret of this mysterious ceremony? What do we gaze at our fingernails in the fire? What is the connection between this ceremony and the aftermath of Adam and Eve’s Sin in the Garden? When we drill deeper into the Havdalah ceremony we discover all kinds of incredible insights and secrets!

This week’s parsha contains several instructions related to the Tabernacle, but the majority of the parsha is dedicated to arguably the most shocking and troubling episode in the whole Torah, the Golden Calf. Forty days after the nation reached the pinnacle of human accomplishment – a national revelation at Sinai – the same nation committed what seems on the surface to be idolatry.
