Wisdom and desire (opens the original)
Read excerpt
HaRav Shlomo Aviner is Head of Yeshivat Ateret Yerushalayim. In the month of Elul, in preparation for the Days of Awe, we work on our middot (character traits). One of the great principles in the Introduction to the book “Orchot Tzaddikim" is the distinction between a person whose wisdom rules over his desires and a person whose desires rule over his wisdom. There is a person whose soul rises upward because he has made his wisdom rule over his desires, while there is another who has made his des
The ways of Tzaddikim (opens the original)
Read excerpt
HaRav Shlomo Aviner is Head of Yeshivat Ateret Yerushalayim. The introduction to the book “Orchot Tzaddikim" is not just an opening to the book. It is in itself a great foundation in the work of improving character and virtues. It teaches us what man is, what his nature is, what the heart is, what the powers of the soul are, what the illnesses of the soul are, and how to heal man. The book opens with the verse from “Kohelet": “The conclusion, everything having been heard, is: Fear the Lord and k

The Rambam states: "All these matters and similar things, no person will know how they will c

Read excerpt
HaRav Shlomo Aviner is Head of Yeshivat Ateret Yerushalayim and author of some 300 books on a wide range of Torah subjects. Ascent to the Temple Mount is an ongoing halakhic argument. By far, the dominant ruling of the vast majority of Torah authorities is that it is forbidden to enter the site of the Temple, and anyone who enters it is liable to karet (spiritual excision or premature death) even today when the Temple lies in ruins. We do not know the exact location of the Temple on the Temple M
The Three Oaths (opens the original)
Read excerpt
HaRav Shlomo Aviner is Head of Yeshivat Ateret Yerushalayim and author of over 250 books and 20,000 articles on a wide variety of Jewish themes and Halakha. Many people in the Diaspora claim the while an individual who makes Aliyah is doing a praiseworthy deed, there is no mitzvah at this time for the Diaspora community as a whole to make Aliyah. They maintain that Jews in the Diaspora are supposed to remain where they are until Mashiach arrives. They cite what are called the “Three Oaths" in th
