Parsha Review Podcast · Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe

In this episode of the Parsha Review Podcast, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe explores Parshas Balak, focusing on the story of Balak, the king of Moab, who hires the powerful prophet Bilaam to curse the Jewish people (Numbers 22). Rabbi Wolbe recounts the riveting narrative where Bilaam’s donkey, divinely enabled to speak, rebukes him for striking it, symbolizing resistance to his mission to curse the Jews. Rashi’s commentary highlights the donkey’s reference to “three times” as an allusion to the Jewish people’s observance of the three festivals (Pesach, Shavuot, Sukkot), which Bilaam seeks to undermine. Rabbi Wolbe explains why the festivals define the Jewish people, emphasizing the miraculous nature of Jerusalem’s Temple Mount, which, like a deer’s hide, supernaturally expands to accommodate millions during these pilgrimages without anyone feeling cramped. This contrasts sharply with Bilaam’s frustration when his donkey pins his leg against a wall, revealing his inability to tolerate minor discomfort, unlike the Jewish people who trust in Hashem’s providence. Rabbi Wolbe draws a broader lesson, contrasting Bilaam’s arrogance and reliance on material wealth with the Jewish people’s faith in Hashem’s control, as seen in historical miracles like the Six-Day War and the protection of Jewish homes during festival pilgrimages. He critiques the modern notion of “financial security” as a form of arrogance, urging listeners to let go of self-reliance and trust in Hashem while still acting responsibly. Using the metaphor of a tractor-trailer stuck under an overpass, he suggests “letting the air out of our arrogance” to align with divine will. The episode concludes with a call to live with faith, recognizing that Hashem orchestrates every outcome, and to embrace this trust for a meaningful Shabbos and life._____________This episode (Ep 7.37) of the Parsha Review Podcast by Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe on Parshas Balak is dedicated in honor of our Holy Soldiers in the Battlefield and our Torah Scholars in the Study Halls who are fighting for the safety of our nation!Download & Print the Parsha Review Notes:https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1ncaRyoH5iJmGGoMZs9y82Hz2ofViVouv?usp=sharingRecorded at TORCH Studios (C) to an online TORCHzoom.com audience on July 8, 2025, in Passaic, New Jersey.Released as Podcast on July 10, 2025_____________Subscribe: Apple Podcasts (https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/parsha-review-podcast-rabbi-aryeh-wolbe/id1651930083)Spotify (https://open.spotify.com/show/22lv1kXJob5ZNLaAl6CHTQ) to stay inspired!

Have you ever wondered why a pagan prophet's words are featured so prominently in the Torah? Join us as we explore the enigmatic story of Parsha Balak, where King Balak's relentless efforts to curse the Jewish people through Balaam the prophet are thwarted by divine intervention. We unravel Balaam's complex character, revealed through his bizarre interaction with a talking donkey and his covetous nature. In particular, we scrutinize the poignant verse from Chapter 23, Verse 10, where Balaam paradoxically wishes to die as righteously as the patriarchs despite failing to live a life of righteousness. This episode powerfully illustrates the futility of seeking repentance at the eleventh hour and underscores the daily opportunities to connect with God through the 613 commandments.We then delve into the spiritual treasure trove that is the Shema, drawing wisdom from the Zohar. We discuss how the Shema's 248 words correspond to the 248 limbs of the human body, emphasizing the power of its recitation in dispelling negative energies. Simple yet profound morning rituals like washing hands, wearing tzitzit, and putting on tefillin are highlighted, offering practical guidance on living a meaningful Jewish life. With an engaging analogy involving a chocolate bar, we reflect on how dedicating even a small portion of our day to these mitzvot can yield profound spiritual rewards. Wrapping up, we encourage listeners to maximize every moment by connecting with the Almighty through His commandments and Torah study, enriching our lives in service to Hashem. May we all be blessed to live this way. Amen._____________This episode (Ep 6.40) of the Parsha Review Podcast by Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe on Parshas Balak is dedicated in Honor of Rabbi Yaakov & Dr. Sara Nagel & in honor of our Holy Soldiers in the Battlefield and our Torah Scholars in the Study Halls who are fighting for the safety of our nation!Download & Print the Parsha Review Notes:https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1ncaRyoH5iJmGGoMZs9y82Hz2ofViVouv?usp=sharingRecorded in the TORCH Centre - Levin Family Studios (B) to a live audience on August 5, 2024, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on August 6, 2024_____________DONATE to TORCH: Please consider supporting the podcasts by making a donation to help fund our Jewish outreach and educational efforts at https://www.torchweb.org/support.php.

In this episode of the Parsha Review Podcast, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe discusses Parshas Chukas, focusing on the red heifer (Parah Adumah) and its designation as "Zos Chukas HaTorah" (the decree of the Torah), highlighting its mysterious, reasonless nature as a divine command. He explains that mitzvahs, like honoring parents, don’t require full understanding to be fulfilled, using the red heifer as an example of submitting to God’s will, as even King Solomon couldn’t grasp its purpose. Rabbi Wolbe emphasizes that Torah study and mitzvah observance deepen with each repetition, elevating one’s connection, as seen in practices like Shabbos candle lighting or kosher laws, encouraging listeners to invest in spiritual growth for eternal rewards in the world to come.The episode also addresses the Jewish people’s complaints in the desert despite miraculous provisions like manna and Miriam’s spring, illustrating how habit can numb appreciation for miracles. Rabbi Wolbe urges breaking this cycle of routine to maintain awe for daily blessings, like the body’s functions or modern technology, and to approach relationships and mitzvahs with renewed passion. He concludes by discussing the brief eulogies for Miriam, Aaron, and Moshe, noting that their concise mention as servants of God reflects their selflessness and the Torah’s focus on the eternal world, not temporary worldly achievements, reinforcing the need to prioritize spiritual investment over materialism._____________This episode (Ep 7.36) of the Parsha Review Podcast by Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe on Parshas Chukas is dedicated in honor of our Holy Soldiers in the Battlefield and our Torah Scholars in the Study Halls who are fighting for the safety of our nation!Download & Print the Parsha Review Notes:https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1ncaRyoH5iJmGGoMZs9y82Hz2ofViVouv?usp=sharingRecorded at TORCH Studios (C) to an online TORCHzoom.com audience on July 1, 2025, in Passaic, New Jersey.Released as Podcast on July 3, 2025_____________Subscribe: Apple Podcasts (https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/parsha-review-podcast-rabbi-aryeh-wolbe/id1651930083)Spotify (https://open.spotify.com/show/22lv1kXJob5ZNLaAl6CHTQ) to stay inspired!

Discover the transformative power of disagreement when approached with respect and understanding. In this episode, we unravel the story of Korach's rebellion against Moshe from Parshas Korach and draw from Rashi's teachings to highlight how disagreements can be natural and beneficial if they remain respectful. By sharing anecdotes of passionate debates among former Mossad leaders and rabbis over Talmudic interpretations, we illustrate how strong opposing views can coexist within respectful discourse. These lessons are increasingly vital in a world where political and social disagreements often escalate into personal conflicts.We also reflect on the role of conflict within relationships, using Rabbi Shlomo Zalman Aurbach as an example to emphasize that a lack of conflict might indicate a lack of true engagement. Extending this idea to international relations, we tackle the complexities of achieving peace between Israelis and Iranians, showcasing the importance of offering dignified exits from conflict. We examine strategies such as those employed by Trump to highlight the importance of allowing all parties to save face. As we conclude, we share a poignant story about the protective power of Torah books during a missile attack in Israel, underscoring the enduring need for peace and safety. Join us for a thought-provoking journey that emphasizes the pursuit of peace in our lives, both personally and globally._____________This episode (Ep 7.35) of the Parsha Review Podcast by Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe on Parshas Korach is dedicated in honor of our Holy Soldiers in the Battlefield and our Torah Scholars in the Study Halls who are fighting for the safety of our nation!Download & Print the Parsha Review Notes:https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1ncaRyoH5iJmGGoMZs9y82Hz2ofViVouv?usp=sharingRecorded at TORCH Meyerland in the Levin Family Studios (B) to a live audience on June 20, 2025, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on June 25, 2025_____________Subscribe: Apple Podcasts (https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/parsha-review-podcast-rabbi-aryeh-wolbe/id1651930083)Spotify (https://open.spotify.com/show/22lv1kXJob5ZNLaAl6CHTQ) to stay inspired!

In this episode of the Parsha Review Podcast, we explore the Torah portion Shalach, focusing on the story of the twelve spies sent to scout the land of Israel. Ten of the spies return with a negative report, causing despair among the Jewish people, which leads to the tragic establishment of Tisha B'Av, a day marked by historical calamities. In contrast, Joshua and Calev offer a positive perspective, highlighting the importance of faith in Hashem’s promise. We delve into the mitzvah of Tzitzis (fringes on four-cornered garments), recited twice daily in the Shema, which serves as a visual reminder of all 613 commandments. He explains that Tzitzis, with their numerical value and structure (600 plus 8 strings and 5 knots), symbolize the entire Torah, encouraging spiritual mindfulness and adherence to God’s laws, particularly for men, as the mitzvah is time-bound and not obligatory for women.We emphasize the power and danger of the eyes, which can lead to holiness or temptation, as cautioned in the verse urging not to stray after one’s heart or eyes. We connect this to modern challenges, where technology and social media, designed to be addictive, can draw people away from their values. Drawing from personal anecdotes, such as a student wearing Tzitzis discreetly and his own experience in Jerusalem’s marketplace, he warns against the spiritual risks of unchecked visual intake. We advocate for mental engagement with Torah to guard against boredom and temptation, citing the practices of tech CEOs who limit phone use for productivity. We conclude by urging listeners to control their eyes, create a personal sanctuary for Hashem, and recite the Shema daily as a reminder to stay focused on holiness, praying for divine protection and a blessed Shabbos._____________This episode (Ep 7.34) of the Parsha Review Podcast by Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe on Parshas Shelach is dedicated in honor of our Holy Soldiers in the Battlefield and our Torah Scholars in the Study Halls who are fighting for the safety of our nation!Download & Print the Parsha Review Notes:https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1ncaRyoH5iJmGGoMZs9y82Hz2ofViVouv?usp=sharingRecorded at TORCH Meyerland in the Levin Family Studios (B) to a live audience on June 17, 2025, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on June 19, 2025_____________DONATE to TORCH: Please consider supporting the podcasts by making a donation to help fund our Jewish outreach and educational efforts at https://www.torchweb.org/support.php.

Join us as we explore the profound lessons from Parsha Shelach and Miriam's story, reflecting on the gravity of the spies' negative report upon surveying the land of Israel. Drawing from a personal anecdote of attending a Hamas rally in disguise, we discuss how affiliations influence our understanding of events and underscore Hashem's role as the ultimate arbiter in the Jewish claim to the land. This episode sheds light on the harsh consequences of negative speech and the divine mission imposed on the Jewish people, amidst the often cruel actions of nations.Ever wonder if the mundane moments in your life are actually signs of divine communication? We share personal stories, like hitting green lights while driving, as examples of Hashem's constant guidance and love.

What if a single, solid piece of gold could teach us about unity? Explore the profound symbolism of the menorah in Parshas Beha'aloscha and discover how its intricate design serves as a metaphor for the unity and diversity within the Jewish people. We'll weave insights from the Midrash, Rashi, and the teachings of the Arizal to show how the menorah represents a harmonious blend of different tribes and customs, all focused towards the central light, symbolizing the Almighty. The episode offers a rich tapestry of tradition and faith, highlighting the importance of uniformity and equality, especially during Hanukkah.Imagine a world where materialism is mastered, not the master.

Much like our meals nourish our bodies, a consistent schedule of Torah study and daily prayer feeds our souls, nurturing spiritual growth. The techniques from James Clear's "Atomic Habits" are highlighted, offering practical strategies for integrating new habits into our existing routines, emphasizing the transformative power of small, steady changes.As we explore the essence of persistence, the phrase "Sheva Yipol Tzaddik V'kam" reminds us of the resilience needed to rise after falling. This episode encourages you to embrace both consistency and perseverance in your spiritual journey, ensuring the Torah remains a vibrant force in your life. As Shabbos approaches, consider how these themes can be woven into your daily practices, keeping the fire of Torah burning brightly. We hope this discussion inspires you and provides the strength needed to maintain an unwavering connection with the Torah._____________This episode (Ep 7.29) of the Parsha Review Podcast by Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe on Parshas Emor is dedicated in honor of our Holy Soldiers in the Battlefield and our Torah Scholars in the Study Halls who are fighting for the safety of our nation!Download & Print the Parsha Review Notes:https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1ncaRyoH5iJmGGoMZs9y82Hz2ofViVouv?usp=sharingRecorded at TORCH Meyerland in the Levin Family Studios (B) to a live audience on May 16, 2025, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on May 16, 2025_____________DONATE to TORCH: Please consider supporting the podcasts by making a donation to help fund our Jewish outreach and educational efforts at https://www.torchweb.org/support.php.

As parents we navigate the highs and lows of parenting, learning firsthand that the lessons we impart on our children resonate far beyond our words. In the midst of unpacking Parshas Emor, we stumble upon a profound truth in the redundancy of a Leviticus verse, as interpreted by Rashi: our obligation to actively educate our kids. In this episode we share not only the theoretical frameworks but also the heartfelt moments from our own journeys—like the nuanced dance of leading by example and the impact of our every action on our impressionable little ones. When we consider the metaphor of the firstborn's double inheritance, it becomes clear that the pioneering path of parenting our eldest is a mixture of trial, error, and invaluable learning that shapes our family legacy.Yet, the true essence of this episode lies in the power of owning our mistakes. We recount times when we've had to ask my own children for forgiveness, moments that have been both humbling and enlightening. These stories serve as a testament to the beauty in our imperfections, the courage in accountability, and the alignment with the divine principles that guide our lives. As we move through the discussion, it's our hope that you'll find inspiration in the endless journey of personal development and spiritual alignment, a path marked by continual growth and the pursuit of righteousness—a legacy we strive to pass down to our children. Join us for a candid exploration of what it means to be a parent in the fullest sense, and how we can embrace the challenge as the greatest gift of all.This episode (Ep 6.31) of the Parsha Review Podcast by Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe on Parshas Emor is dedicated in Honor of Dovi Wolbe & Adina Netzer on their Engagement & in honor of our Holy Soldiers in the Battlefield and our Torah Scholars in the Study Halls who are fighting for the safety of our nation!Download & Print the Parsha Review Notes:https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1ncaRyoH5iJmGGoMZs9y82Hz2ofViVouv?usp=sharingRecorded in the TORCH Centre - Studio B to a live audience on May 17, 2024, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on May 17, 2024_____________DONATE to TORCH: Please consider supporting the podcasts by making a donation to help fund our Jewish outreach and educational efforts at https://www.torchweb.org/support.php.

In this episode of the Parsha Review Podcast, we explore the portions of Tazria and Metzorah, focusing on themes of purity, spiritual growth, and the impact of environment. Drawing from the opening verse of Tazria (Leviticus 12:1), we discuss the concept of ritual impurity and parallels it with the order of creation, where mankind’s purity follows that of animals, as explained by Rashi and the Midrash. We emphasize the importance of what we "plant" in our lives—both physically and spiritually—using the metaphor of sowing seeds to illustrate how our choices in food, media, and environment shape who we become and how our children develop. Through personal anecdotes, including his grandfather’s journey to Torah scholarship and his own childhood experience in Brooklyn, Rabbi Wolbe underscores the need to protect ourselves and our children from negative influences, such as non-kosher food and harmful media. He also highlights the spiritual significance of kosher laws, explaining how they safeguard the soul, and shares insights into the Jewish concept of Gemachs (free loan societies) as acts of kindness that foster positive community influence. The episode concludes with a call to surround ourselves with virtuous environments to ensure spiritual and moral growth._____________This episode (Ep 7.27) of the Parsha Review Podcast by Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe on Parshas Tazria-Metzora is dedicated in honor of our President & in honor of our Holy Soldiers in the Battlefield and our Torah Scholars in the Study Halls who are fighting for the safety of our nation!Download & Print the Parsha Review Notes:https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1ncaRyoH5iJmGGoMZs9y82Hz2ofViVouv?usp=sharingRecorded at TORCH Meyerland in the Levin Family Studios (B) to a live audience on April 29, 2025, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on May 2, 2025_____________DONATE to TORCH: Please consider supporting the podcasts by making a donation to help fund our Jewish outreach and educational efforts at https://www.torchweb.org/support.php.

This episode takes us on a journey through the profound lessons of Parsha Tazria, where we discover that our physical deeds are more than just actions; they're gateways to elevating our souls. We'll unpack the sacred act of circumcision and its immediate connection to spirituality, and discuss peeling back the 'foreskin of the heart' to reveal a deeper bond with the divine. Sometimes, the most extraordinary aspects of existence are hidden within the ordinary, and here, we'll share how recognizing the hand of the divine in everyday moments can transform our perspective on life.The narrative then shifts to the spiritual essence of womanhood and how, perhaps, the female soul naturally resonates with the divine in ways that transcend the need for commandments. Through stories and observations, we explore the innate godliness of women and the powerful impact of motherhood, both of which may outshine the spiritual achievements men strive for through religious precepts. We'll recount an emotional experience with my daughter at the hospital that underscored the current societal debates on gender identity. Join us as we contemplate the importance of embracing the unique spiritual and physical attributes that define men and women, rather than diminishing these differences in the pursuit of a misguided sense of equality.This episode (Ep 6.27) of the Parsha Review Podcast by Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe on Parshas Tazria is dedicated in Honor of Dan & Shawna Kullman & in honor of our Holy Soldiers in the Battlefield and our Torah Scholars in the Study Halls who are fighting for the safety of our nation!Download & Print the Parsha Review Notes:https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1ncaRyoH5iJmGGoMZs9y82Hz2ofViVouv?usp=sharingRecorded in the TORCH Centre - Studio B to a live audience on April 10, 2024, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on April 11, 2024_____________DONATE to TORCH: Please consider supporting the podcasts by making a donation to help fund our Jewish outreach and educational efforts at https://www.torchweb.org/support.php.

In this episode, we dive into the profound lesson from Moshe's persistent prayers to enter the Land of Israel—showing us the power of seeking divine grace instead of depending on our achievements. We unravel the term "va'eschanan," highlighting how true righteousness involves asking for Hashem's boundless kindness, preserving our merits for the world to come. As we reflect on the joyous 15th of Av, where trust in Hashem led many to their life partners, we see a beautiful illustration of faith in divine benevolence over human worthiness.Join us as we explore the limitless kindness of Hashem through the lens of Moshe's heartfelt plea and the significant message it carries for us today. We discuss living a life free from fear and worry by entrusting ourselves to Hashem's infinite goodness. This episode is not just a theological discussion but a heartfelt journey into experiencing Hashem's kindness in our everyday lives. We end with a blessing for everyone to feel Hashem's goodness and kindness, wishing you an incredible Shabbos. Don't miss this inspiring episode that encourages unwavering trust in divine grace!_____________This episode (Ep 6.44) of the Parsha Review Podcast by Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe on Parshas Va'eschanan is dedicated in Honor of Dr. Leonard Goldberg & in honor of our Holy Soldiers in the Battlefield and our Torah Scholars in the Study Halls who are fighting for the safety of our nation!Download & Print the Parsha Review Notes:https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1ncaRyoH5iJmGGoMZs9y82Hz2ofViVouv?usp=sharingRecorded in the TORCH Centre - Travel Studios (D) to a live audience on August 16, 2024, in Passaic, NJ.Released as Podcast on August 16, 2024_____________DONATE to TORCH: Please consider supporting the podcasts by making a donation to help fund our Jewish outreach and educational efforts at https://www.torchweb.org/support.php.
