In the academic world, ancient Greek philosophy is society's archetype of intellectual prowess. Spiritually, though, it leads to darkness and confusion. In stark contrast, the light of Torah and its commandments illuminate the soul and bring happiness to the heart. This is the Chanukah juxtaposition of Greek and Maccabee, light and darkness...

A person needs something badly. Despite looking for all kinds of solutions, he knows in his heart that only Hashem can grant his request. But he doesn't feel like praying. Yet, he knows that even if he does pray, it won't be fervent or sincere. What should he do?

Who bows down to idols anymore? Sadly enough, most of the world does. They devote their lives to serving futility, endeavors of no consequence that cannot help a person in times of trouble.

There are people with upright hearts. They have the desire to perform an important commandment, but for some reason, they are unable to. This desire stimulates the Heavenly heart, which personally comes to the aid of such individuals.

King David pays tribute to our patriarch Abraham, who stood alone against the whole world. Abraham's life is a shining example for King David and for all subsequent generations until Moshiach. It's also the template...

Draft the Haredim? Don't draft the Haredim? First, Israel must decide what type of army they want. A conventional army sometimes wins, sometimes not. An army like Gideon's adheres to one set of rules only, and they're neither conventional nor politically correct.

My cherished friend Rabbi Uri Zohar zatza"l, left an awesome legacy, the "Lev L'achim" organization, which does humongous Torah outreach all over Israel. As a team player, I love cooperating with them. Lev L'achim has a waiting list of soldiers and young people who need and want tefillin but can't afford them. Most of the time, they get donations of old tefillin that are seldom reliably kosher. As part of our Emuna Beams Tefillin Project, we donated 5 brand new pairs of tefillin to Lev L'Achim. I wanted to make sure that our the soldiers and young people who get them are well-protected, so I personally oversaw the production of these tefillin. If you're worried about the situation in the world, don't. Five new tefillin-wearing warriors are now in Hashem's army, so whatever happens will be successful. Am Yisrael Chai!

David's suffering became a template of Jewish history until the arrival of Moshiach. His prayers for salvation and rescue from enemies are therefore relevant to every generation, especially ours. Doeg the Edomite symbolizes our national nemesis, the offspring of Esau, from the Romans to Haman to the Nazis. Ultimately, they all disappear.

Someone notifies you that your son has been badly wounded, rushed by helicopter from the battlefield to the hospital. Nearly berserk, you get in the car and drive as fast as you can to the hospital too...
The most urgent item on our national agenda is not Iran - it's eradicating baseless hate and urgently accepting the mitzva of Ahavat Yisrael. In memory of Rabbi Tzvi Kogan Hy"d, see this 4-minute clip and share it with others. It's a must for our security.

The Assuta Hospital in Ashdod does fabulous work. They've treated many of our injured soldiers that were injured in Gaza. When Rabbi Tzvi Goodman, the Rabbi of the Bet Chabad at the hospital told me that they lacked Rabbenu Tam tefillin, we took it upon ourselves to provide a brand new, super "mehudar" set. We presented it to them on Thursday, Nov. 21, 2024.
