Set Apart: April 13, 2022 (The Forbidden Chapter)
Whether online or in the streets, much has been said about the "Forbidden Chapter"... Isaiah 53, which is held to have been long banned from synagogues across the globe due to its overt Christological message. But is there any truth to this legend? The answer is "no," but it's also more complicated than it initially seems. In this episode we explore the claims of the Forbidden Chapter myth, the reasons as to why it's false, and the potential origins of this new, but quickly spreading, defamation.

Set Apart: December 9, 2021 (Commandments: You Shall Not Covet)
Part ten of the Ten Commandments series. We're at the end of Aseret ha'Dibrot, but while the commandment not to covet is the last, it's certainly not the least. In fact, obsession and desire for the possessions of others can easily lead us down a path of breaking the other nine. In this episode we discuss the difference between healthy and toxic desire, as well as some tips for avoiding the latter.

Furthermore, is honesty always the best policy, or are there times where a lie is appropriate?

Last week we looked at the character of Satan from the Jewish perspective, noting the ways in which it differs from the popular interpretation. But where did this popular interpretation come from? Is it something biblical, or does it come from another source? This week we'll discuss some of the various traditions of the ancient world that contributed to the Lucifer/fallen angel legend, and why these ideas—despite what is often claimed—are not backed up in Tanakh.

In this episode we will explore some of the complicated feelings that accompany regret, as well as the process that ultimately leads to redemption.

We've all heard that we shouldn't care what others think of us, and most of the time that's good advice. So when it comes to Jewish law, we shouldn't worry about being righteous in the eyes of men, right? All that matters is that we do what is right in the eyes of Hashem... or maybe not. In this episode we'll take a look at the concept of Marit Ayin ("what appears to the eye") and what the Kitzur has to say about others' perception of our halachic observance.
