Today, we must recognize that there is still much to be gained from recognizing “Torah Celebrities” among us – those living examples of authentic Torah values in their everyday lives. These people are seen as models of character traits that should be emulated and looked up to. They could include rabbis, teachers and scholars, communal and organizational leaders, activists, philanthropists, and ins...

Being a part of the Jewish people enables us to draw from a wealth of spiritual heritage, customs, and beliefs passed down for generations. We constantly connect to our rich history through prayer, study, and observance of mitzvot (commandments). This connection is felt deeply in our hearts when we pray or perform an act of goodness. Something is fulfilling about performing an action done througho...

This commandment is as relevant today as it was thousands of years ago. We should always honor our parents and show them respect, regardless of their age or feelings. Honoring your parents means more than saying “please” a...

• Speech that states something negative about a person, even if true, is considered Lashon Hara (Evil Tongue). • Hotzaat Shem Ra ("spreading a bad name") consists of lies and is considered an even graver sin than Lashon Hara. • Gossiping is called Rechilut and is also prohibited by halakha. • In Numbers 12, Miriam spoke negatively about Moses, resulting in punishment from God. • Rabbi Yi...

 In total, Rebbe Akiva had 24,000 students who were devoted to him and devoted to the Almighty.  However, tragedy struck when a plague killed all 24,000 students. This was a massive blow to Rebbe Akiva and Jewish tradition, as it meant that much knowledge would be lost with the passing of these great students.  Despite this tragedy, Rebbe Akiva continued to teach Torah and was able to pass his tea...
