00:00 When an urgent world event happens, how do we approach giving tzedaka to that cause? 02:40 Can I fly a country flag with a Christian or other religious symbol on it? 03:37 Do people who are heretics still somewhat believe in tefilla and is it more or less the case today? 14:34 Why is POSEACH ES YADECHA seemingly the whole reason we say the Ashrei? 19:39 What should a Yeshiva Bachur do if after a while at Yeshiva he feels disenchanted in learning/davening, etc.? 33:30 What are the Rav’s views on Hisbodedus and Jewish mediation? 39:30 In terms of secular music, specifically country music which heavily focuses on their god and on women/relationships but (for the most part) is not nearly as sexually explicit or openly immoral—some find that meaningful and sometimes touching —is listening to that considered krum? 45:31 How much of Avraham Avinu’s Torah is preserved in Oral Torah? And why didn’t Hashem simply give him or his sons the Torah before Sinai? 52:59 What is the Rav’s opinion of women (moms) who work full time and often leave kids to be raised by babysitters? 59:18 Would a different Torah narrative entail still going to Jerusalem and all the laws associated as such? 1:03:23 When the great flood happened, was it regional or global? 1:06:02 Can one value secular education for its own sake? Meaning, the value of knowledge beyond the practical use. 1:16:08 How exactly did Avraham reverse engineer the mitzvos? 1:18:11 If a single girl goes through all the required purifications, could she touch a man? 1:22:40 In terms of a person who grew up as a secular Jew and then became frum, are they accountable for all the mitzvos they didn’t know about? 1:27:41 What are the exact definitions of Chochma, Bina, and Daas, and how does one relate to the other? 1:32:51 When it comes to tzedaka, we are allowed to “test Hashem”—should we take this literally and what are the parameters of that? 1:40:57 Why are there so many reasons we could be redeemed?You can listen to this and many other Ohr Somayach programs by downloading our app, on Apple and Google Play, ohr.edu and all major podcast platforms.
