Most people think the 10th of Tevet is just a "minor" fast day marking the start of a siege. But what if it actually holds the key to Judaism's entire mission?

A new wave of antisemitism is rising—but the real struggle may begin closer to home than we think.

In this fascinating talk, Rabbi Nir Menussi discusses the global resurgence of antisemitism, describing it as a "light sleeper" that has fully awakened in both classical right-wing nationalism and modern left-wing anti-Zionism. Drawing on the philosophy of the Rebbe, he presents a radically positive approach: instead of getting caught in the "victim mentality" of fighting the darkness—by constantly labeling and calling out antisemites—the focus should be on spreading light. Antisemitism should serve as an "alarm clock" for the Jewish people to strengthen their identity and embrace their universal mission: to be a "light unto the nations" by sharing the wisdom and values of the Torah with the world.

Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year, is often described as the anniversary of the world’s creation. But that’s not quite right — it marks the creation of humanity, surprisingly placing mankind before, and even above, the world.

In Parashat Shoftim, the Torah lists practices such as divination, sorcery, witchcraft, and necromancy — and calls them abominations. But what do these words really mean? Why are they forbidden, and how are they relevant today?

In this 90-minute class, Rabbi Nir Menussi explores the Torah’s vision of the occult and shows how these ancient prohibitions remain deeply relevant in the modern world. Drawing on Kabbalah and Chassidut, the class reveals the hidden structure of the ten forbidden practices, their modern-day counterparts, and how each one can be rectified in a holy way.

The class concludes with the Torah’s timeless alternative: walking wholeheartedly with God, free of superstition and false powers.

What if the most profound explanation for anti-Semitism was hidden in a science fiction classic? In this episode, I explore Arthur C. Clarke’s Childhood’s End (1953) and uncover a startling parallel between its central idea and the way Jews have been perceived throughout history. From the Christian demonization of Jews to modern anti-Zionism, I propose that the Jewish people are often feared and hated not for what they do, but for what they represent: a challenge to the world’s existing order, and a call to enter a higher, more God-connected phase of human existence.
