5 Minute Torah - Shoftim - Age of the Antihero 10:14

Play Pause

3d ago10:14

10:14

What if “Be perfect” never meant “be flawless”? We cheer antiheroes who excuse failure—then assume God does too. But Deut 18:13 and Matt 5:48 call us to tamim: blameless, whole, undivided—not plastic perfection. Yeshua raises the bar to the heart to heal, not humiliate, making sin the exception, not our identity. Have we settled for “I’m only human…

5 Minute Torah - Re'eh - Erasing The Name 10:12

10d ago10:12

10:12

“Erase their names… but do not do so to the LORD” (Deut 12). Not license for icon-smashing—a warning about reverence. The sages forbid defacing the Divine Name (Y-H-V-H) or slapping it on throwaway stuff. Deeper still: we erase His Name by how we live. When our posts, deals, or jokes contradict Him, that’s chillul Hashem. The remedy? Kiddush Hashem…

Part 5 - Baseless Hatred - The Roots of Christian Antisemitism 35:38

14d ago35:38

35:38

Why Didn’t the Jews Just Believe in Jesus? It’s a question people still ask today. But what if the answer has less to do with blindness… and more to do with betrayal? This week, we peel back the layers of history to uncover what was really happening in the early centuries of the Church and why the message of Jesus became, for many Jews, a message o…

5 Minute Torah - Eikev - The Second Coming of Torah 10:40

17d ago10:40

10:40

Sometimes God lets things break so they can be rebuilt stronger. Moses smashed the first tablets. Yeshua’s Kingdom was delayed. Both moments carried the same challenge—what will God’s people do while they wait? The second tablets came with grace and renewal. The Messiah’s return will too. Until then, one question remains: Will He find us faithful—o…

5 Minute Torah - Va'etchanan - Louder Than Words 9:38

24d ago9:38

9:38

Sometimes our lives speak louder than words—for good or bad. We’ve all seen it: faith proclaimed, but denied by actions. When that happens, the world stops listening. What light are we supposed to be shining? Is it telling the world about Jesus or something even more important? What are we talking about? Find out in this week’s 5 Minute Torah. Join…

"THESE SCRIPTURES ARE NOT YOURS, BUT OURS" -Justin Martyr What if the theology you’ve inherited isn’t rooted in Scripture at all, but in a 2nd-century backlash against Judaism? Meet the architects of supersessionism—Justin Martyr, Melito of Sardis, Tertullian—who forged the idea that “true Israel” isn’t an ethnic lineage but a faith community. In t…

Part 3 - Baseless Hatred - The Roots of Christian Antisemitism 35:09

1M ago35:09

35:09

Root Causes What do Gnostics, Marcion, and Crusaders have in common? They all reshaped Christianity—and fueled centuries of anti‑Judaism. This week we’ll travel back in time to zoom in on a moment when the Jesus movement took a sharp turn. Not yet with councils or decrees, but with quiet edits and a clever “fix” that still shapes how people read th…

5 Minute Torah - Mattot-Massei - The Holy War of Love 10:42

1M ago10:42

10:42

What if the fiercest battle isn’t fought with swords but with love? In this week’s Torah portion, God commands Moses to wage war on Midian—but rabbinic masters insist the real enemy isn’t people at all, but the hatred that divides us. How do you “take up arms” against sinat chinam—baseless hatred—and instead pursue ahavat chinam—baseless love? Can …

5 Minute Torah - Pinchas - The Good Shepherd 9:33

1M ago9:33

9:33

In a world drowning in noise, how do you pick the voice worth following? Some lead with fear. Others peddle empty promises—or simply crave the sound of their own words. But what if the greatest leader isn’t a celebrity or politician at all, but the quiet shepherd who knows each sheep by name? In this week’s Torah portion, Moses’ final request isn’t…

What happens when hate wears a theological costume? Why does a 1.1 M-view conspiracy video about “fake Jews” resonate so deeply—and how do 20,000 comments reveal our own blind spots? I’ll admit it: I was tired, uninspired, even overwhelmed by the sheer volume of lies dressed up as biblical truth. But then I got kicked in the rear end by a simple in…

What do a frog in a kettle, a talking donkey, a reluctant prophet, a deadly plague—and even your favorite Prime-Time TV shows—have in common? Could the same slow drift that turns a frog complacent also be luring you into compromise? In Parashat Balak, King Balak hires Balaam to curse Israel, only to see every scheme—human cunning, sorcery, and sedu…

Are you living life on autopilot—going through religious motions but feeling spiritually dead?

How do the roadblocks of Edom and the giants of fear, envy, and complacency stand between …

5 Minute Torah - Chukat - Collateral For Atonement 9:50

2M ago9:50

9:50

Why does the Torah—after prescribing the enigmatic Red Heifer rite—immediately record Miriam’s death? Is this random editorial, or a divine breadcrumb trail to God’s true logic? Could it be that atonement isn’t secured by ritual alone, but by the life—and death—of the righteous? Rabbinic sages taught that just as cow-ashes cleanse, so does a holy l…

Ever been told that breaking one commandment is the same as breaking them all? Is our God a legalist waiting to strike us dead for a minor slip?

Is tithing still a divine command—or a relic of a bygone era? Many pastors wield Malachi 3:10 like a club, demanding 10% for the “storehouse,” yet that promise only applied when the Temple stood in Israel. So what did “ma’aser” originally mean? In this week’s 5 Minute Torah, discover how ancient agricultural tithes morph into modern tzedakah, bless…

Talk Is Not Cheap 33:42

We live in a world where the cheaper, easier option is often the one that harms us most. The good stuff—what truly nourishes—is harder to find, and it costs more.

Letter vs. Spirit: Are You Really Living God’s Holiness? Is following the rules enough to be holy? Our current Torah portion challenges us to think beyond just the letter of the Law.

Is biblical leprosy a skin disease or a spiritual malady? In Parashat Tazria, we encounter tzara’at—a mysterious condition that affected skin, clothes, and even houses.

The Necessity of Sacrifice | Why Sacrifice Still Matters 35:05

Last week we found joy in sacrifice - this week we face its necessity. As Passover approaches, we're reminded that sacrifice isn't just about sin - it's about presence and life. Ezekiel's vision challenges us: could offerings return in the Messianic Age, even with Yeshua here? If sacrifice means connection, not just atonement, then it's not outdate…
