1. The Camp and the Chariot (Audio)

   Rabbi Chanoch Waxman |

   This shiur explores concepts of sanctity and defilement (tuma'h ve-tahara), and compares their various appearances in the Torah. The placement of the tribal standards (Degalim) around the Mishkan is analyzed, and compared with the “Divine Chariot” vision of Ezekiel, where the keruvim (cherubim) surround the Divine Celestial Throne.

2. Avraham’s Success and Lot’s Distress - Foregoing Serenity to Help a Brother

   Rabbi David Silverberg

3. Dust and Ashes: Avraham, the Red Heifer, and the Sota

   Rabbi David Silverberg

4. Acharei Mot - Kedoshim and Yom HaAtzmaut

   Rabbi Shlomo Dov Rosen

5. From Inside to Outside: Yom Kippur and Sukkot

   Dr. Yonatan Feintuch

   Sukkot follows almost immediately after Yom Kippur and both share in the atmosphere of Tishrei – one of soul-searching, gazing at the year gone by, atonement, and looking towards the future. Still, as we know, these festivals are very different in essence, mood, and in the laws that characterize them.

   In this article I suggest that the two holidays sit at opposite poles of single continuum: one that stretches from inwardness to outwardness.

6. Ramban on Tetzaveh - The Shechinah within Israel

   Rabbi Ezra Bick | 36 דקות

   In this shiur, we examine one of the most important comments in Ramban's commentary to the Torah. What does it mean that God took Israel out of Egypt to dwell in their midst? Was the construction of the Mishkan really the purpose of the Exodus? Why would this be, and what does this mean? Is the Divine Presence dwelling in the midst of the nation for the purpose of God, Israel, or the other nations - or some combination thereof?
