The Bahir

"The Bahir Illumination," by Rabbi Nehunia ben haKana who was a master of the first century esoteric school of Judaism..... a contemporary of the author of the Zohar, Rabbi Shimon bar Yochai. ב וְהָאָרֶץ, הָיְתָה תֹהוּ וָבֹהוּ, וְחֹשֶׁךְ, עַל-פְּנֵי תְהוֹם; וְרוּחַ אֱלֹהִים, מְרַחֶפֶת עַל-פְּנֵי הַמָּיִם.2 Now the earth was unformed and void, and darkness was upon the face of the deep; and the spirit of God hovered over the face of the waters. ג וַיֹּאמֶר אֱלֹהִים, יְהִי אוֹר; וַיְהִי-אוֹר.3 And God said: 'Let there be light.' And there was light. I have underlined in red the Hebrew words "Tohu...

What is time telling me ?

What is time telling me ? Its all scraps of life…….and to live the moment of collecting the shards.In other words, as in the story of Yosef ha Tzadik, understand that mazal is within the power of man to activate HaShem’s Hashgachah Pratit or Divine Providence.  Yosef collected and Yehudah united……….and so will it be in the End of Days when the Stick of Yosef and the Stick of Yehudah become one in the Hand of HaShem.

The Sinai Prophecy

Parashas Vayeishev The Wise One or The Prophet [חכם עדיף מנביא] Rabbi David Pesach Katz                 ****Audio Lesson Mon 11 P.M. Tzfat Time – Elucidation of Article**** "Sinai. Ger Toshav. The Twelve Tribes. Israel. Gerim. Prophecy. Wisdom. Bnei Noach"…From one perspective a case can be made that this [opening blurb] is one acceptable angle of truth that could justify 1/70 faces of the Torah; if nothing else it explains history to perfection oddly enough, and can shed profound light on today's politics by more or less shining a bright flashlight upon...

Back to The Religion.

  Parashas Vayishlach   Religion   Rabbi David Katz Parashas Vayishlach resonates on one frequency that gives a certain bling to any time period in Torah history, and this pitch is none other than "religion." Our Parasha is unique in this respect, for in her contents lie the essential core of the three foundational pillars that make up our society over all of time, in Jacob, Esav, and Yishmael. As a staple of Chazal, it is said that the peoples of planet Earth will always boil down to these three, even against all odds; as east west and central parts of the planet are composed of these three figure heads. Although...

The Man Shem

Parashas Toldos All Grown Up Now Rabbi David Katz Parashas Toldos bleeds of redemption all the way through its narration; as much as this is true in the revealed realm, it is the hidden dimensions that are astounding profound. Yes we have the famous prelude of the Baal Haturim commentary that informs us, that as the previous Parasha's end speaks about Yishmael [and his demise], this is a setup and introduction into Isaac's progeny and promised redemption [specifically Isaac's distant son Moshiach ben David; the fall of the Ishmaelite exile is the rise of the return of the Davidic Kingdom]. The Parasha then treks down familiar paths and...
