Have you ever wondered about the unique intricacies of Jewish prayer and calendrical traditions? Discover the profound significance behind the reading of Haftorahs during special parashas such as Shkolim, Zochor, Parah, and HaChodesh, and how we choose which Haftorah to read. Join us as we unpack the principle of "Tadir v'she'eno tadir tadir kodem" and how it shapes our tradition. We'll also navigate the fascinating calendar distinctions, like why Rosh Hashanah marks the start of the Jewish year while Nisan kicks off the months, and explore other pivotal dates such as Shavuot and Tu B'Shvat. Transitioning to the milestones of Jewish life, we shine a light on the bar and bat mitzvah customs that mark the passage into religious adulthood. While it’s a cherished tradition for bar mitzvah boys to read from the Torah, we explore the idea that there’s no religious mandate to do so. Drawing from personal anecdotes, we reflect on how some children may feel daunted by this practice and discuss the importance of creating a supportive, understanding environment that respects individual capabilities. We also touch on the practice of singing down bar mitzvah boys and grooms to spare them public discomfort, underscoring the need for empathy in our community rituals. As we embrace the warmth of Shabbos, we explore the transformative potential it holds for our lives. From the modest bowing during the Amidah that embodies humility, to the joyful customs of Kabbalat Shabbat like L'chad Odi, we invite you to experience the richness of Shabbos rituals. Discover how the Amshenov Rebbe's continuing spiritual high illustrates the profound connection we can achieve by welcoming the Shabbos queen. By fostering excitement and reverence, Shabbos becomes much more than a day of rest; it becomes a cornerstone of spiritual rejuvenation that can carry us through the week. In this episode of Ask Away we address these various topics: Understanding Jewish Prayer and Calendar Basics: Exploring Jewish traditions, rituals, Haftorahs, Jewish calendar, Rosh Hashanah, Nisan, Shavuot, and biblical foundations for prayer. Bar/Bat Mitzvah Torah Reading Customs: Bar mitzvah tradition of reading Torah, sensitivity towards struggling children, singing down to prevent embarrassment. Bowing and Welcoming the Shabbos Queen: Jewish prayer customs include bowing during Amidah, Oseh Shalom, and specific prayers, and Kabbalat Shabbat traditions like L'chad Odi and welcoming the Shabbos queen.

Join us once again as we shed light on the intricacies of the Four Parshiyot, those special Torah readings that enrich the Jewish calendar around the month of Adar. Could understanding these ancient practices transform how we connect with our faith today? We take a journey through Siman 140, illuminating the deeper meanings behind Parshas Shekolim, Zachor, Parah, and HaChodesh.

Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe from Torch in Houston, Texas, unpacks the vibrant and multifaceted festival of Purim! Known for his deep insights and engaging storytelling, Rabbi Wolbe brings clarity to the joyous traditions that make Purim so special. We journey through the timeline of Purim celebrations, starting with Taanis Esther and moving through Purim and Shushan Purim, highlighting the unique observances in places like Jerusalem. Rabbi Wolbe shares the four essential mitzvahs that define Purim: reading the Megillah, sending Mishloach Manos, giving Matanos La'evyonim, and enjoying a festive feast. We explore the deep sense of community and generosity that these practices foster, even pondering modern questions like whether a coffee pod qualifies as a gift for Mishloach Manos. The conversation doesn't shy away from the complexities of Purim, such as balancing celebration with decorum and the considerations for mourners. We dive into the proper timing for meals and prayers, and discuss the historical tradition of consuming seeds. Rabbi Wolbe offers thoughtful guidance on how to maintain respect for religious practices while fully embracing the joy of Purim, especially the unique obligation to become intoxicated. We reflect on how one's true nature is revealed through their behavior, even during festivities, and touch on the nuances of observing Purim during a leap year. Whether you're familiar with these traditions or new to them, this episode offers a rich exploration of Purim's spirit and significance, ensuring you celebrate with mindfulness and joy. _____________ Recorded from a live audience presentation in the TORCH Centre - Levin Family Studios (B) in Houston, Texas on March 9, 2025 Released as Podcast on March 12, 2025 _____________ The Everyday Judaism Podcast is dedicated to learning, understanding and appreciating the greatness of Jewish heritage and the Torah through the simplified, concise study of Halacha, Jewish Law, thereby enhancing our understanding of how Hashem wants us to live our daily lives in a Jewish way. _____________ This Podcast Series is Generously Underwritten by Marshall & Doreen Lerner Download & Print the Everyday Judaism Halacha Notes: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1RL-PideM42B_LFn6pbrk8MMU5-zqlLG5 This Bonus episode of the Everyday Judaism Podcast by Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe of TORCH is dedicated to my dearest friends, Marshall & Doreen Lerner!
