A Biyaler Entry Into the Machzor (opens the original)
Read excerpt
What am I actually supposed to be davening for on Rosh Hashanah? We know the language. Malchut Hashem. Kavod Shamayim. We stand before the King and ask that His presence fill the world. But then we open the machzor—and we're asking for life. For parnasah. For our children. For our families. For all the things we so desperately need. So which one is it? In this Rosh Hashanah shiur, given shortly after the passing of the Biala Rebbe of Givat Shaul, Rav Shlomo Katz and the women of Shirat David ent
The Rosh Hashanah Secret Hidden in the Shofar's Narrow End (opens the original)
Read excerpt
We spend so much of our lives trying. We work on our marriages. We work on our children. We work on our parnasah, our Torah, ourselves. And because Hashem created us adam la'amal yulad —born to work—that yegiah isn't something we're supposed to escape. But then comes the danger. When something finally works, it's very easy to look back at everything we did and think: I did this. In this Rosh Hashanah shiur, Rav Shlomo Katz and the chevra of Shirat David continue an extraordinary teaching from th
The Rosh Hashanah Secret to Making Miracles Happen (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Why does Hashem make us work so hard for something that, in the end, only He can make happen? In this Rosh Hashanah shiur, Rav Shlomo Katz and the chevra of Shirat David learn an extraordinary teaching from the Tolna Rebbe that begins with an almost unbelievable halacha: what happens when the ba'al tokeia simply cannot get a sound out of the shofar? From there, we enter into the deeper meaning of Vihi Noam , the miraculous building of the Mishkan and Beis Hamikdash, and the Menorah that Moshe Ra
But My Love For You Will Not End (opens the original)
Read excerpt
What does it mean to enter into a bris with Hashem? On the final Shabbos of the year, Parshas Nitzavim gives us the hachana for Rosh Hashanah: אתם נצבים היום כולכם . Stand up. Stand together. Not because we're all the same. Not because we even understand one another. But because every Jew has something that completes another Jew. And then the Torah tells us why we're standing there: לעברך בברית ה׳ אלקיך . To enter into a covenant with Hashem. A bris , the Rebbe teaches, is what two people establ
The Ba’al Shem Tov’s Secret to Entering Rosh Hashanah (opens the original)
Read excerpt
What happens when Elul doesn't go the way we planned? We enter the month with plans, kabbalos, hopes for who we're going to become. Then suddenly, Selichos is almost here. Rosh Hashanah is around the corner. And somehow, we're still us. In this shiur, Rav Shlomo Katz and the chevra of Shirat David return to a mashal from the Ba’al Shem Tov about a fox, a group of animals, and their journey to face the lion they had rebelled against. The fox begins the journey armed with hundreds of brilliant par
