Sukkot: Walking After You in the Wilderness — On Uncertainty, Faith, and Joy (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In this episode of Underneath the Underneath, Yocheved steps into Sukkot still carrying the warmth of Yom Kippur — and finds in the humble, temporary structure of the sukkah a map for one of the deepest questions of human life: how do we walk through uncertainty? Drawing on the Zohar's teaching that the sukkah is the shade of faith, the Izhbitzer on the schach as divine covering, and Rebbe Nachman's radical teaching that God created the world for people who can find faith through the confusion —
Shabbat Shuva and Yom Kippur: What the Year Left in You (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In this episode of Underneath the Underneath, Yocheved enters Shabbat Shuva — the Shabbat suspended between Rosh Hashana and Yom Kippur — and finds inside the opening verses of Ha'azinu a teaching that reframes the entire season. Drawing on the Meor Einayim of Reb Menachem Nachum of Chernobyl, this episode traces the movement of the life-force through a person — how it rushes in, returns to its source, and leaves behind a reshima: an impression, a recognition, a trace. And it is precisely this r
Ki Tavo and Elul: Hasket — The Word That Holds Two Medicines (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In this episode of Underneath the Underneath, Yocheved enters Parshat Ki Tavo and orients to a single word that carries layers of spiritual technology. Hasket. Usually translated as “hearken” or “take heed” — a doubling of the command to listen. But the Midrash reads it differently. Has: become silent. Katu: shatter. Two medicines hidden in one word. The path to becoming a people, to truly hearing the words of Torah, to entering the land — it begins here. Drawing on the Midrash, the story of Rab
Ki Tetzei and Elul: The God of the Breast — Eil Sha-dai and the Field of Return (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In this episode of Underneath the Underneath, Yocheved arrives at Parshat Ki Tetzei with a chidush that stops everything: the Hebrew root of sadeh — field — is the same as Shadai. Eil Shadai. The God of the breast. The king in the field, the classic Elul teaching, turns out to be more than a metaphor for accessibility. The field is the place of the nurturing God — the divine who feeds, who sustains, who knows exactly when you are full and says die*, enough. Not abandonment. Deep attunement.* Dra
Shoftim and Elul: Who Stands at Your Inner Gate? — On Discernment, Surrender, and the Inner Prophet (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In this episode of Underneath the Underneath, Yocheved enters Parshat Shoftim at the threshold of Elul — and finds inside it a map for the inner work of this season. The Torah opens with a deceptively simple command: place judges and officers in all your gates. But Moshe isn’t only talking about city gates. He’s talking about the gates of the inner world — the places where fear enters, where the crowd’s opinion enters, where the past tries to determine the present. Who stands there? How do we di
