In this class, Rabb Yisroel Bernath delves into the profound symbolism of the dreidel, a cherished Chanukah tradition. By examining the four sides of the dreidel and their connection to the human psyche—ego, bodily urges, reason, and the compulsion to destroy—we uncover a deeper narrative about human behavior and spirituality. Through the lens of Jewish mysticism, the dreidel becomes a metaphor for balancing our inner struggles and aligning them with our divine essence. The class further explores historical parallels between the human psyche and the four empires that clashed with Judaism, demonstrating how these lessons remain relevant in contemporary life.
Key Takeaways:
Four Dimensions of the Psyche: The dreidel's four sides symbolize the ego, bodily urges, reason, and the destructive impulse, all of which can either harm or elevate us.
The Fifth Dimension: The dreidel’s point represents the divine spark within each of us, guiding our moral clarity and purpose.
Historical Reflection: The struggles of Babylonia, Persia, Greece, and Rome against Judaism mirror the internal battles of the human spirit.
Spiritual Growth: Chanukah teaches us to harness our inner forces, transforming them into tools for divine expression and moral refinement.
Relevance Today: Understanding the interplay of our psychological elements can lead to personal and societal improvement rooted in universal morality.Sign up for Kabbalah of Mental Wellness HERE https://ndg.chabadsuite.net/civicrm/event/register?reset=1&id=61

The second half of Genesis is filled with dreams that carry profound messages about life, destiny, and action. In this class, Rabbi Yisroel Bernath explores the dreams of Joseph, the butler, and the baker, uncovering their deeper meanings. Through Joseph’s interpretations, we learn a critical distinction: the difference between being active participants in shaping our destiny versus passive observers of life’s circumstances. By understanding this lesson, we are empowered to take charge of our challenges, break free from our personal prisons, and transform our sighs into meaningful deeds.
Key Takeaways:
Active vs. Passive Living: The butler's active role in his dream symbolizes life and freedom, while the baker’s passivity reflects helplessness and demise.
Joseph’s Wisdom: Joseph’s interpretations teach us that being proactive in life leads to growth and redemption, while inaction can trap us in stagnation.
Prison as a Metaphor: Everyone faces limitations—whether emotional or circumstantial. The key is to take action despite those constraints.
The Power of Deeds: Small, intentional actions can break cycles of despair and open the door to freedom and purpose.
A Call to Action: Whether facing personal struggles or communal challenges, the solution lies in doing—no matter how small the first step may seem.

In this deeply personal and profound sermon, we confront the unanswerable question of why tragedies befall righteous individuals, using the life and legacy of Rabbi Zvi Kogan HY"D as a source of inspiration. While acknowledging the pain and darkness, we explore the Jewish response: to transform sorrow into an unstoppable commitment to goodness, light, and purpose. Drawing from the teachings of the Rebbe and our Patriarchs' connection to wells, we learn that even in the depths of despair, the hidden springs of resilience and holiness can be uncovered to nourish a world in desperate need of light.
Key Takeaways
The Power of Purpose
Rabbi Zvi Kogan lived a life filled with purpose, building a vibrant Jewish community. His legacy teaches us that purpose gives life meaning, even in the face of adversity.Transforming Pain into Action
The Jewish response to tragedy is not paralysis but action. Every mitzvah we do brings Divine compassion into the world and counters the darkness of fear and hatred.The Symbolism of Wells
Our forefathers' wells symbolize the discovery of hidden strength and inspiration amidst struggle. Just as spring water emerges pure and life-giving from beneath the earth, so too does our greatest light often emerge from our deepest struggles.Small Acts, Big Impact
Simple, consistent actions—lighting Shabbat candles, giving tzedakah, or teaching children—create ripples of light and holiness that transform the world.Carrying the Legacy
Rabbi Kogan’s legacy challenges us to be lamplighters, bringing light to the darkest places through courage, faith, and consistent acts of goodness.Faith in Justice
The phrase HY”D, “May G-d avenge their blood,” reaffirms our faith in G-d's ultimate justice, rejecting chaos and vengeance while affirming our role as bearers of moral clarity.Pledge A Mitzvah in Memory of Rabbi Zvi Kogan HY"D. https://onemitzvah.org/tzvi/rabbi-bernaths-team

This week's Torah portion, Vayeira, captures the surprising encounter between Abraham and three angelic visitors. Expecting divine revelations, the angels instead find Abraham busy with hospitality — preparing food, fetching water, and overseeing their comfort. They question, “Where is Sarah your wife?” seeking a glimpse of the true tzaddik, only to find that her holiness, too, is concealed within the humble details of life. Through Abraham's actions, the angels learn that genuine holiness is not in escaping earthly concerns, but in bringing light to them. Abraham demonstrates that true spirituality is about bringing heaven into the everyday, a mission passed down through his descendants.
Key Takeaways:
Spiritual Greatness in the Mundane: Abraham’s greatness is revealed not in miraculous acts but in his devoted, everyday service to others, emphasizing that holiness is found within the ordinary moments.The Tzaddik’s Mission: Abraham’s role as a tzaddik teaches us that spiritual leaders embody selflessness, focusing on the needs of others as a path to divine connection.True Hospitality as Divine Work: By hosting the angels, Abraham exemplifies how simple acts of kindness can elevate humanity above even angelic beings.Bringing Heaven Down to Earth: The narrative illustrates that our purpose is not to transcend the physical but to infuse it with sacredness, creating a “home for G-d” here on earth.Holiness Concealed and Revealed: Abraham and Sarah’s roles demonstrate that true spiritual power may often be hidden, discovered in moments of kindness and commitment, rather than in overt displays of sanctity.#Torah #TorahPortion #Bible #Abraham #Holiness #Spirituality #Judaism #Jewish #JewishHistory #BibleStudy

This week, Rabbi Bernath's sermon delves into the profound moment in this week's Torah portion when G-d calls Abraham to leave everything familiar and embark on a journey that would define not only his own life but the life of humanity. The Midrash’s metaphor of a palace in flames becomes the key image for Abraham's—and ultimately all of Judaism's—mission. Abraham's journey begins with a cry to G-d, asking why a beautiful world, brimming with order and wonder, is engulfed in suffering and strife. G-d’s response, “I am the ruler of the palace,” calls Abraham, and all of us, to act as His partners in repairing the world. Through G-d’s implicit challenge, Abraham learned—and taught—the lesson at the heart of Judaism: that we are tasked with extinguishing the flames of injustice and bringing G-d’s presence into our world.
Takeaways:
1. Humanity's Responsibility: Judaism teaches that we are responsible for the world, called upon to combat injustice and protect life, not simply to observe the beauty or lament the flames.
2. The Power of Moral Courage: True goodness demands moral courage, the bravery to condemn evil unequivocally and protect the innocent. Abraham’s journey ignites the mission of Judaism: to oppose wrongdoing without compromise.
3. Rejecting Passivity: The Midrash urges us to reject passivity in the face of evil. Like Abraham, we are called to ask tough questions of ourselves and society and to lead by example, striving toward a world of compassion and righteousness.
4. Redefining Leadership and Society: In choosing leaders and guiding our own lives, we must seek those who recognize the importance of standing up against those who “set fire to the palace,” those willing to uphold justice and moral clarity.
5. Partnership with G-d: The true beginning of the Jewish faith is the realization that we are G-d’s partners in creation, called to infuse holiness into the world by actively pursuing justice, kindness, and integrity.

In the aftermath of the Great Flood, humanity united in the Valley of Shinar to construct the Tower of Babel—a symbol of ambition and defiance. The story reveals three driving philosophies behind the Tower: rebellion against G-d, forced homogeneity, and misguided rationalism. While one idea was burnt away, another buried but recurrent, the last still towers today in subtle denial of divine orchestration. The lesson is clear: humanity thrives through embracing diversity, acknowledging divine orchestration, and building not to rival heaven but to bring heaven down to earth.
Key Takeaways:
Rebellion Burned Away: The primitive notion of defeating the Divine was extinguished, symbolizing that even skepticism today acknowledges a transcendental Creator.
Unity vs. Diversity: Forced homogeneity, though submerged, resurfaces throughout history, proving true unity respects and celebrates diversity.
Misguided Rationalism Stands Tall: The persistent belief in randomness over divine providence endures, dulling moral sensitivity and feeding human hubris.
The Power of Choice: Life's significance pivots on our choices—to see the world as a series of random events or as an intentional, divine masterpiece.

On the night of Rosh Hashanah, we engage in a cosmic ceremony unlike any other — the coronation of G-d as our King. Drawing inspiration from Rabbi Yosef Dov Soleveitchik’s childhood story in Chaslavitch, we explore the profound depth of Rosh Hashanah, where the humblest among us — the tailor, shoemaker, water-carrier, and painter — all participate in the crowning of G-d. But why does the infinite, omnipotent G-d desire our coronation? Through this act, we come to understand the relationship between human free will and divine sovereignty, and how Rosh Hashanah illuminates the purpose of our existence.
Key Takeaways:
Rosh Hashanah as Coronation: Rosh Hashanah is the "Coronation Night" when each person, regardless of their station, plays a role in crowning G-d as King.
Why G-d Needs Our Coronation: G-d desires a relationship built on choice, not coercion. We are invited to freely declare Him King, forging a personal bond with the Creator.
Human Free Will: Rosh Hashanah embodies the paradox of a limitless G-d who humbles Himself, allowing space for us to choose Him — elevating our smallness into cosmic significance.
The Power of the Simple Jew: It is not the scholars or kings alone who coronate G-d; it’s the everyday Jew, demonstrating that each of us holds a divine role and responsibility.
Our Unique Role: The vulnerability of G-d in desiring our choice speaks to the magnitude of human existence — we hold the power to invite G-d into our lives and crown Him King over creation.

The month of Elul is a time of deep introspection and renewal in love and relationships, aligning with the theme of "Ani l'dodi v'dodi li" – "I am to my beloved, and my beloved is to me." This sermon explores the mystical dimensions of Elul, emphasizing how true love and unity are possible without compromising individuality. By understanding the Kabbalistic concepts of Divine light and vessels, we learn how love in human relationships mirrors the unity between the finite and the infinite. As we honor Jenna and Shmuel’s upcoming wedding, we delve into the profound lesson of how two distinct souls can join together seamlessly, embodying the essence of Elul’s energy.
Key Takeaways:
Elul's Unique Energy: Elul, the month of Virgo, carries the energy of love and relationships. It invites us to reflect on the mutual symbiosis between two individuals, just as it symbolizes our relationship with the Divine.
Ani L'dodi V'dodi Li: This phrase from Song of Songs encapsulates the essence of love—a dynamic where each person reflects the other. Love grows in proportion to the love we give, mirroring how we relate to the Divine.
Love as an Initiative: True love requires proactive effort. We must take the initiative in relationships rather than waiting for love to come to us. This active approach leads to deeper, reciprocated connections.
Unity Without Compromise: Kabbalah teaches that unity between distinct entities, like the union between a couple or between humanity and the Divine, is possible without losing individuality. The interplay of light and vessel shows how finite beings can merge with the infinite while maintaining their unique identity.
Reflection in Relationships: The union of "I" and "my beloved" reflects the cosmic unity, demonstrating how individual souls can unite harmoniously. This union is celebrated in marriage, where two people become one while still retaining their personal essence.Sign up for Kabbalah of Mental Wellness HERE https://ndg.chabadsuite.net/civicrm/event/register?reset=1&id=61

The Rebbe’s teachings on the parable of the “King in the Field,” drawn from Rabbi Schneur Zalman of Liadi, provide profound insights into the unique opportunity presented by the month of Elul. Unlike the rest of the year, when approaching G-d can feel daunting, during Elul G-d leaves the palace and meets us in the field. This signifies His closeness, love, and willingness to engage with all of us, no matter how distant we may feel. However, it is up to us to take the first step towards Him. Through acts of charity, prayer, and listening to the shofar, we are invited to greet the King and prepare ourselves to follow Him back to the palace for the High Holidays.
Takeaways:
The King is in the Field: During Elul, G-d is accessible to everyone, symbolizing divine mercy and forgiveness.We Must Take the First Step: The initiative to approach G-d during Elul is ours, as indicated by “I am to my Beloved, and my Beloved is to me.”Preparation for the High Holidays: Our acts of humility and dedication during Elul lead us to be granted an audience with G-d during the High Holidays.Field and Palace: Elul represents a time of closeness and simplicity, while the High Holidays invite us into G-d’s palace, where His full glory is revealed.Sign up for Kabbalah of Mental Wellness HERE https://ndg.chabadsuite.net/civicrm/event/register?reset=1&id=61

The 5-Step Program of Spiritual Courtship, Engagement, Marriage, Honeymoon, and Real Life: Discovering the Divine Romance in Our Lives
In this sermon, Rabbi Yisroel Bernath explores the deep and mystical relationship between G-d and the Jewish people, likened to a sacred marriage. Drawing from Kabbalistic and Chassidic teachings, Rabbi Bernath delves into the spiritual phases of this divine union, paralleling it with the milestones of human relationships: courtship, engagement, marriage, honeymoon, and the day-to-day reality of married life. Through the lens of the High Holiday season, this episode offers a journey of rejuvenating our connection with G-d, culminating in the ultimate intimacy that shapes our everyday existence.Takeaways:
Courtship with G-d: The month of Elul as a time of divine dating, where G-d meets us in our natural state, inviting us to connect authentically.Engagement Proposal: Rosh Hashanah as the moment of commitment, where G-d proposes a deeper relationship, and we respond with the cry of the Shofar.Marriage Ceremony: Yom Kippur as the day of divine union, where we fast, atone, and solidify our eternal bond with G-d.Celebration and Intimacy: The festivals of Sukkot, Shemini Atzeret, and Simchat Torah as the celebration and intimate consummation of our relationship with the Divine.Real-Life Relationship: The month of Cheshvan as the time to nurture our ongoing relationship with G-d in the everyday moments, discovering the sacred in the ordinary.#Spiritual #Judaism #Jewish #HIghHolidays #RoshHashana #RoshHashanah #Yom kIppur #Kabbalah #Torah #chabad #mysticism #sukkot #simchatorah
