Seeing Hashem's Hand in Our Lives (Parsha In-Focus: Beshalach)
02/04/25 • 20 min
Have you ever stopped to consider the true source of your accomplishments? Join us on an enlightening journey through Parshas Beshalach, where we explore the delicate dance between human initiative and divine providence. In the shadow of the miraculous splitting of the sea, we confront our own stubbornness in recognizing Hashem's hand in our successes. With stories from the Torah and personal anecdotes, including a touching tale of my daughter's matchmaking miracle, we're reminded that our lives are not merely a series of coincidences but a tapestry woven by divine intervention. This episode will challenge you to see the extraordinary within the ordinary and to give credit where it's truly due.
Awaken each morning with a heart full of gratitude; that's the message we carry forward as we recount the Pesach Seder's tale of deliverance and the daily saying of "Modeh Ani." By acknowledging Hashem's continued kindness and the real source of our achievements, we open ourselves up to a world brimming with blessings. We invite you to consider how every milestone, be it as monumental as freedom from bondage or as personal as finding love, is guided by the Almighty's hand. Tune in for a heartfelt discussion on the importance of gratitude and the profound impact of recognizing the divine orchestration in our everyday lives.
This episode (Ep 6.16) of the Parsha Review Podcast by Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe on Parshas Beshalach is dedicated in Honor of our dear friend Gary Nathanson & our Holy Soldiers in the Battlefield and our Torah Scholars in the Study Halls who are fighting for the safety of our nation!

Finding Meaning Beyond the Screen (Parsha Power: Beshalach)
Reflecting on a vibrant sunset one evening, we were reminded of how easy it is to overlook the beauty in front of us when we're caught up in the hustle of daily life and glued to our devices. This episode journeys through Parshas Beshalach, recounting the miraculous experiences of the Jewish people as they left Egypt and recognized the divine interventions of Hashem. We discuss the challenge of finding faith amidst a world that often attributes such events to luck or scientific reasoning, drawing parallels to modern-day miracles, like Israel's defense against ballistic missiles. Through this exploration, we aim to rekindle a sense of wonder and the importance of living our faith genuinely, rather than capturing it superficially with technology.
With phones buzzing and screens constantly demanding our attention, maintaining genuine presence in our relationships can be a struggle. We dive into the nuances of being truly present, especially in marriage, and how technology can often be a distraction. Emphasizing the value of living in the moment, we share insights on how to nurture a deeper connection with both our loved ones and our spiritual beliefs. As we wrap up our discussion, we leave you with a heartfelt wish for a mindful Shabbos, hoping to inspire a life filled with intention and awareness in every precious moment.
