Ways to Connect:
• Emunah Academy: Dive into courses on Torah, Kabbalah, and Breslov teachings.

This Week's Parasha: Parashat Noach, פָּרָשַׁת נֹחַ

The world has become filled with violence and corruption, and HaShem tells Noach, a righteous man in his generation, to build an ark to protect his family and representatives of the animals from the coming flood.

Rain falls for forty days and nights, and the waters cover the earth. After the flood, Noach and his family leave the ark and begin rebuilding their lives. HaShem makes a covenant promising never again to destroy all life through a flood, with the rainbow as its sign.

Later, the parasha tells the story of the Tower of Babel, when people attempt to build a great tower reaching toward heaven. HaShem confuses their languages, and they become scattered across the earth.

A Thought for the Week

One thing that I find interesting about Noach is that HaShem didn't simply rescue him from the flood. He told him to build an ark, and that required Noach to do something himself.

Imagine being told to prepare for something that nobody around you seems to understand. Noach had to continue working, day after day, without knowing exactly how everything would unfold.

I think we can learn something important from this. There are times when we pray for HaShem to help us, but we also need to ask ourselves what we can do with the abilities and opportunities He has already given us.

Sometimes the next step is very clear, and sometimes we only know what we can do today. We don't always need to understand how everything will turn out before we begin doing our part.

Shabbat Shalom!

As Shabbat begins, lighting the candles turns an ordinary room into a place set apart for rest, peace, and holiness. 🕯️

The blessing for Hadlakat Nerot Shabbat is:

“Baruch Atah Adonai Eloheinu Melech ha’olam, asher kid’shanu b’mitzvotav v’tzivanu lehadlik ner shel Shabbat.”

Blessed are You, HaShem our God, King of the universe, who sanctified us with His commandments and commanded us to light the Shabbat candle.

May the light of Shabbat bring peace into your home and help you step away from the noise of the week.

Shabbat Shalom. ❤️

The Torah describes our ancestors going down to Egypt as seventy people—but uses the singular word *nefesh*, “soul.”

Rav Dror reflects on what that language teaches us: many people, many personalities, many stories—and still one people.

Unity does not mean that everyone becomes the same. It means remembering that beneath our differences, Am Yisrael is connected by something deeper than opinion, background, or geography.

Seventy people. One soul. One nation. ❤️

Today we shared the Hebrew word Neshamah, נשמה, soul, and I wanted to share something that I think is beautiful about the way Judaism teaches us to look at our soul.

Every night we go to sleep, and every morning we open our eyes and find that HaShem has given us our Neshamah back. This is why one of the first things a Jew says in the morning is Modeh Ani, a very short prayer thanking HaShem for returning our soul to us.

I think we can get so used to waking up every morning that we forget how extraordinary this really is. Usually within a few minutes we're already thinking about what we need to do, where we need to go, what happened yesterday and everything waiting for us today.

Our sages teach us that the Neshamah comes from HaShem. We usually describe ourselves by what we do, what we've achieved, what we've been through, or even by the mistakes we've made. But none of those things are your Neshamah. Your Neshamah was given to you by HaShem, and that connection to Him is with you wherever you go.

The first thing to remember when you open your eyes is not what you need to accomplish that day. It is that HaShem gave you your Neshamah back, and with it, another day of life.

נשמה — Neshamah — means “soul.”

The word is closely connected with breath. In Bereishit, HaShem breathes the breath of life into Adam, and the human being becomes alive.

There is something beautiful in that connection: every breath can remind us that life itself is a gift, and that beneath all the labels we use for ourselves is a neshamah given by HaShem.

Before the day becomes busy, remember what is already inside you. ✨

We inherit more than names and stories from the generations before us. We also inherit strengths, patterns, responsibilities, and opportunities to bring something forward in a better way.

Rav Dror reflects on a powerful idea: the Torah we learn, the mitzvot we do, and the choices we make can become part of a story larger than our own.

We cannot rewrite the past, but we can add more holiness, compassion, and emunah to what comes next.

Someone commented under one of my posts, "I'm Christian but I believe this 100%," and I wanted to respond to this because I see comments like this quite often.

There are many people following me who are not Jewish, or who didn't grow up with Judaism, and still they feel very strongly connected to what I'm teaching. Some tell me they feel connected to Israel, some to Torah, and some simply feel that when they hear us speaking about HaShem, something feels familiar to them. And I think this is very interesting.

We speak a lot at Emunah about the Twelve Tribes of Israel and about how complicated the history of our people actually is. People were scattered across the world for generations, communities disappeared, and families lost their connection and their identity. So when someone from a completely different background suddenly feels a very strong connection to Judaism or to the people of Israel, I don't think we need to immediately tell them what that means or who they are. But I also don't think we should ignore it!

Maybe there is something for you to discover, and maybe your story is completely different. That's between you and HaShem, and it can take time to understand.

But this comment also made me curious about all of you, because I know there are people here from so many different backgrounds, and I don't know most of your stories.

So tell me, what is your background, and what brought you here? Are you Jewish and reconnecting? Did you grow up religious? Are you Christian, Muslim, or coming from somewhere completely different? Did you simply come across one of my videos one day and something made you stay?

And if you're comfortable sharing, I may choose some of your comments and share them here so we can get to know each other a little better. I think many of you would be surprised to discover who else is here and how many different roads brought us to the same place.

I invite you to explore my book Awakening the Tribes, where I share some remarkable stories and teachings that may help you understand that connection.

May we all gather together, and may the redemption come in our days. Amen.

Today we shared the Hebrew word Lev, לב, heart, and I want to share something with you that I think is very important to remember, especially when we look at other people.

There is a beautiful verse in the book of Shmuel, when the prophet is sent to choose the next king of Israel. He sees someone who looks impressive, someone who seems like a natural choice for a king. But HaShem tells him something that I think we should all remember:

כִּי לֹא אֲשֶׁר יִרְאֶה הָאָדָם כִּי הָאָדָם יִרְאֶה לַעֵינַיִם וַיהֹוָה יִרְאֶה לַלֵּבָב (שמואל א', פרק ט"ז, פסוק ז')
“For man sees what appears to the eyes, but HaShem sees the heart.” (Shmuel 16:7)

Think about how often we form an opinion about someone without knowing what is happening inside them.

We see how a person behaves, how they dress, what they say, what they have accomplished, and sometimes we think we understand who they are. But we don't know what they are praying for when nobody is listening. We don't know what they are struggling with, what they are trying to change, or how much effort it took them just to do something that seems very simple to us.

This is also something I want you to remember about yourself.

You may look at another person and think they are much further along than you in their relationship with HaShem. Maybe they know more Torah, pray more regularly, or seem to have everything figured out. But you don't know their heart, and they don't know yours, HaShem does.

Of course, our actions matter. We need to keep learning, improving and doing what is right. But please don't forget that HaShem also sees the effort that nobody else notices, the questions you are afraid to ask, and the sincere desire you have to come closer to Him.

So before you judge another person, remember that there is a whole heart (Lev, לב) you cannot see. And before you judge yourself too harshly, remember that HaShem sees yours.

Lev in Hebrew translates to "heart" but in terms of Biblical Hebrew, it is referred to beyond the physical heart.

The word Lev can also denote a person's core, that is, the place where thoughts, understanding, wants, intentions and emotions take place.

When the Torah uses the expression "putting something upon your heart", it means the same thing as making it an inherent part of you as a person rather than just knowledge.
