For generations, Jews have mourned Jerusalem from afar, sitting in exile, longing for a city they could only dream of returning to. But what does it mean to recite these same words of mourning now, when millions of Jews have come home and Jerusalem is once again alive with Jewish life?

In this Tisha B'Av special, Ari sits down with Rabbi Yitzchak Etshalom for a deep dive into Psalm 137 ("Al Naharot Bavel") and what it teaches us about how to commemorate Tisha B'Av today.

In this episode, Ari sits down with Rabbi Menachem Leibtag to explore one of the most overlooked chapters in Tehillim. At first glance, Tehillim 105 seems like a simple retelling of Jewish history. But Rabbi Leibtag argues that beneath the surface lies a profound interpretation of the Torah itself.

Together, they uncover how the psalm is built around Brit Bein HaBetarim, the covenant God made with Abraham, and how it presents the Exodus not merely as an escape from slavery, but as part of a larger mission stretching from Abraham to the Land of Israel. Along the way, they explore why this chapter became part of our daily prayers, how Tehillim serves as a commentary on Chumash, and what it means to be a people chosen to proclaim God's name in the world.

We had the honor of welcoming the amazing Rabbi Alex Israel to talk about my all time favorite mizmor, Tehillim 19 (הַשָּׁמַיִם מְסַפְּרִים כְּבוֹד אֵל), and the unique lens it shines on our relationship with Torah and the natural world.

Lechu Neranena (Psalms 95) begins as a beautiful invitation to song, but ends with a chilling description of the doomed generation of the wilderness. In this episode, we finally get to the heart of this mysterious mizmor: why it is the perfect way to enter Shabbat, what new light it sheds on what went wrong in the midbar, and why its message is especially resonant during Sefirat HaOmer.

Thank you Dr. Daniel Loewenstein for joining us!
