Tom Stoppard Is Dead – Parshat Vayishlach
Stoppard was never remotely religious, but his unwitting world view was so Jewish. He summed up in his immortal line which could have been a quote from our sages: "Every exit is an entrance somewhere else."

Meeting in the Dark – Parshat Vayetze
In the darkness of exile, when the familiar secure structures of holiness fall away, and we don’t “see” Hashem through the clear light of prophecy or miracles. Instead, we stumble upon Him — in the loneliness, in the confusion, in the pain. It is precisely there, in the hiddenness, that the deepest revelation awaits us.
The Brothers – Parshat Toldot
Parshat Toldos is not just the story of two brothers. It’s a blueprint of history, and a mirror of the times we’re living through right now. The Torah tells us that even before Yaakov and Eisav were born, they were already struggling inside their mother. This was the very first expression of two completely different ways of looking at existence.
True Life Stories – Parshat Chayei Sara
A life bound to Hashem does not end; it merely changes form. What appears as an ending is, in truth, a revelation of what life always was — attachment to eternity.

A Divine Symphony – Parshat Ha’azinu
Parashat Ha’Azinu is not merely a poem; it is a shirah — a Divine song. The combination of words and music gives song the power to express simultaneously joy and sorrow, exile and redemption, judgment and compassion. That is why Moshe, on the last day of his life, chooses a song to seal the Torah’s message for eternity.
