Kabbalah for Everyone

Send us a textThe second half of Genesis is filled with dreams that carry profound messages about life, destiny, and action. In this class, Rabbi Yisroel Bernath explores the dreams of Joseph, the butler, and the baker, uncovering their deeper meanings. Through Joseph’s interpretations, we learn a critical distinction: the difference between being active participants in shaping our destiny versus passive observers of life’s circumstances. By understanding this lesson, we are empowered to take charge of our challenges, break free from our personal prisons, and transform our sighs into meaningful deeds.Key Takeaways:Active vs. Passive Living: The butler's active role in his dream symbolizes life and freedom, while the baker’s passivity reflects helplessness and demise.Joseph’s Wisdom: Joseph’s interpretations teach us that being proactive in life leads to growth and redemption, while inaction can trap us in stagnation.Prison as a Metaphor: Everyone faces limitations—whether emotional or circumstantial. The key is to take action despite those constraints.The Power of Deeds: Small, intentional actions can break cycles of despair and open the door to freedom and purpose.A Call to Action: Whether facing personal struggles or communal challenges, the solution lies in doing—no matter how small the first step may seem.#biblestudy #joseph #dreams Genesis, Joseph, dreams, butler, baker, action vs. inaction, personal growth, Jewish continuity, proactive living, spirituality, freedom, empowerment, meaningful deeds.Sign up for Kabbalah of Mental Wellness HERE https://ndg.chabadsuite.net/civicrm/event/register?reset=1&id=61Support the showGot your own question for Rabbi Bernath?

Send us a textIn this deeply personal and profound sermon, we confront the unanswerable question of why tragedies befall righteous individuals, using the life and legacy of Rabbi Zvi Kogan HY"D as a source of inspiration. While acknowledging the pain and darkness, we explore the Jewish response: to transform sorrow into an unstoppable commitment to goodness, light, and purpose. Drawing from the teachings of the Rebbe and our Patriarchs' connection to wells, we learn that even in the depths of despair, the hidden springs of resilience and holiness can be uncovered to nourish a world in desperate need of light.Key TakeawaysThe Power of Purpose Rabbi Zvi Kogan lived a life filled with purpose, building a vibrant Jewish community. His legacy teaches us that purpose gives life meaning, even in the face of adversity.Transforming Pain into Action The Jewish response to tragedy is not paralysis but action. Every mitzvah we do brings Divine compassion into the world and counters the darkness of fear and hatred.The Symbolism of Wells Our forefathers' wells symbolize the discovery of hidden strength and inspiration amidst struggle. Just as spring water emerges pure and life-giving from beneath the earth, so too does our greatest light often emerge from our deepest struggles.Small Acts, Big Impact Simple, consistent actions—lighting Shabbat candles, giving tzedakah, or teaching children—create ripples of light and holiness that transform the world.Carrying the Legacy Rabbi Kogan’s legacy challenges us to be lamplighters, bringing light to the darkest places through courage, faith, and consistent acts of goodness.Faith in Justice The phrase HY”D, “May G-d avenge their blood,” reaffirms our faith in G-d's ultimate justice, rejecting chaos and vengeance while affirming our role as bearers of moral clarity.Pledge A Mitzvah in Memory of Rabbi Zvi Kogan HY"D. https://onemitzvah.org/tzvi/rabbi-bernaths-team#chabad #Torah #Sermon #RabbiZviKogan #mitzvah #ParshatToldot #meaning #Bible #BibleStudy #Rabbi Sign up for Kabbalah of Mental Wellness HERE https://ndg.chabadsuite.net/civicrm/event/register?reset=1&id=61Support the showGot your own question for Rabbi Bernath?
