  • EIZEHU MEKOMAN (Offerings/Korbanot #8)
    2025/10/09
    In this episode of the Prayer Podcast, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe discusses the fifth chapter of Tractate Zevachim, recited daily in the morning prayers as part of the korbanot section, aligning with the Daf Yomi cycle starting October 8, 2025. He emphasizes the spiritual and practical significance of studying the offerings, which substitute for actual temple sacrifices, and their role in fulfilling the mitzvah of daily Torah, Mishnah, and Talmud study. The episode connects the offerings to prayer, personal transformation, and the Jewish mission. Key points include:Purpose of Studying Korbanot: Reciting the verses (Torah), Mishnah (Zevachim, Chapter 5), and Brisa of Rabbi Yishmael (Talmud, planned for next week) before prayers fulfills the mitzvah of daily study, even for busy professionals. This ensures spiritual connection before engaging in prayer, as studying offerings is akin to bringing them (1:15–2:23).Written vs. Oral Torah: The Written Torah (Tanakh: Torah, Nevi’im, Ketuvim) outlines what to do (e.g., mezuzah, shechita), but lacks how-to details. The Oral Torah (Mishnah, Talmud, Midrash, Kabbalah), compiled by Rabbeinu HaKadosh into six orders, decodes these instructions, transmitted from Moshe at Sinai. Rabbi Wolbe recounts helping his attorney friend understand that Moshe wrote the Torah per Hashem’s command, citing Numbers 9:23 and the small aleph in Vayikra (Leviticus 1:1) as evidence of Moshe’s humility (2:23–11:25).Zevachim, Chapter 5’s Uniqueness: This chapter, titled “Eizehu Mekoman” (What is their place?), is unique as the only Mishnah chapter without disputes, reflecting unity and clarity in the laws of where offerings are brought in the temple. This unity mirrors the Kohen’s requirement to be at peace with others to serve, emphasizing communal harmony (13:37–14:40, 24:51–26:01).Types of Offerings:Communal Offerings: The Tamid (daily morning and evening) and Musaf (on Shabbat, Rosh Chodesh, holidays like Rosh Hashanah, Yom Kippur, Sukkot) represent collective devotion.Individual Offerings: Include Olah (burnt, symbolizing complete devotion), Shlamim (peace, elevating physicality), Pesach, firstborn, tithe, thanksgiving, and Chagigah. Each addresses a spiritual need, like the Olah atoning for forbidden thoughts (18:37–19:21, 28:22–29:29).Prayer as a Substitute for Offerings: Rav Schwab explains that the Amidah parallels the Olah: stripping physicality (hafshet, like skinning), approaching with a broken heart (nituach, like cutting), and praying with fiery enthusiasm (kolil l’ishim, like burning). This transforms prayer into a spiritual offering, connecting the soul to Hashem (29:29–33:16).Spiritual Insights:Dignity in Eating: Rabbi Wolbe cites the Talmud’s comparison of eating in the marketplace to a dog, urging dignified eating (e.g., using utensils, not hands) to elevate the physical, as in the Shlamim offering (22:04–23:55).Jewish Privilege and Responsibility: Responding to his son’s reluctance to attend yeshiva, Rabbi Wolbe highlights the privilege of being among the few Jewish boys studying Torah, despite antisemitism. He notes that hatred (sinah) descended with Sinai, but being chosen demands humility and shining as a light to the world (33:16–37:00).Prayer and Temple Restoration: The phrase “Eizehu Mekoman” evokes longing for the temple, paired with a prayer for its speedy rebuilding. Prayer is most effective after “feeding” Hashem with offerings, akin to Esther’s feast strategy (40:44–41:30)._____________This Podcast Series is Generously Underwritten by Dr. Leonard & June GoldbergDownload the Prayer Podcast Worksheets:https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1iBVevW1ydyjSeyeO0iCcina7e8vix3Lt?usp=sharingThis episode (Ep. #37) of the Prayer Podcast by Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe of TORCH is dedicated to my dearest friends, Dr. Leonard & June Goldberg!

  • ANA BEKOACH (Offerings/Korbanot #7)
    2025/09/10

    In this episode of the Prayer Podcast, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe explores the mystical and powerful Ana Bekoach prayer, attributed to the Tanaic sage Rabbi Nechunya ben HaKanah, which is recited at the end of the morning offerings and before Shabbos to signify a spiritual transition from the physical world of Asiyah (doing) to the higher realm of Yetzirah (creation). Comprising seven lines with six words each, totaling 42 words, the prayer reflects the 42-letter name of Hashem used in creation, with each line corresponding to a divine attribute, a day of creation, and the menorah’s branches, and its acronyms forming sacred names that are not pronounced to maintain their sanctity. Rabbi Wolbe explains its role as a plea for redemption, asking Hashem to release the Jewish people from limitations and protect them from adversities like anti-Semitism, as exemplified by recent tragedies in Jerusalem and Gaza. Drawing from the Arizal and Talmud (Kiddushin 71a), he highlights the prayer’s deep mystical significance, its connection to the Shema, and its ability to open channels of divine blessing (shefa), emphasizing the need for humility and purity when engaging with it. Rabbi Wolbe encourages daily recitation to renew oneself, connect to Hashem’s kingship, and emanate godliness, concluding with a blessing that all prayers be accepted.
