A Generational Shift and The Secret of Purity

This week's Jerusalem Lights podcast ponders the paradox of the Torah portion of Chukat, featuring the proverbial 'para aduma,' the Red Heifer, Torah's greatest mystery. Moses was the only person who understood its secret...yet this very same Torah portion records Moses' greatest blunder, his striking of the rock to bring forth water....a mistake that cost him the privilege of entering into the Land. Jim Long and Rabbi Chaim Richman share fascinating insights of Torah wisdom, showing that it's all about connection vs. disconnect, and stagnation vs. spiritual growth.

When the spirit of truth comes in all power, the soul is honestly set free.
My redemption is sure. Thanks again, for a complete thorough torah thought.

3:53 do you believe in kaballah rabbi? "tikun" is this a concept from chazal?

[@ThomasAnderson-sd6yt]

Could Moses have been so grieved over the death of his sister Miriam that he lost control and hit the rock. 🤷‍♂️ Plus , Aaron and Moses where part of the generation that wasn't aloud to go into the promise land. Even though they were from the tribe of Levi and not from the tribe of Joshua and Caleb (Judah and Ephraim). Just some thoughts, Shalom.

ThomasAnderson-sd6yt,
*They lost that promise because they disobeyed HaShem*
*He told them to speak* 🗣️ *ti the rock, and they hit it, instead*
*Get an Artscroll Tanach, and read and study it* *It’s the closest to the Hebrew translation*

[@wimwijn1]

Thx for this amazing podcast again, rav, shabat Shalom

[@TheMalka770]

Hmm interesting.

[@SkillandChillParenting]

This podcast would be so much better if the Rabbi would not constantly interrupt Jim. Let Jim speak. He is knowledgeable and has interesting things to say.

[@debradbolton4571]

Why not subscribe to Jim long and forgo this broadcast?

[@debradbolton4571]

After all, it is Jerusalem Lights’ broadcast, Rav Richman is the host and main speaker and Jim Long is the guest-not the main speaker🤷🏻‍♀️
