Avraham begs Sarah: אִמְרִי נָא אֲחֹתִי אָתְּ - please tell them that you’re my sister. But Pharaoh takes her anyway, and then he gets inflicted with נְגָעִים גְּדֹלִים and he lets her free. And the Torah puts in this weird Pasuk how Pharaoh accuses Avraham: וַיֹּאמֶר מַה זֹּאת עָשִׂיתָ לִּי, לָמָּה לֹא הִגַּדְתָּ לִּי כִּי אִשְׁתְּךָ הִוא - why did you say that she's your sister? Why didn't you say that she’s your wife? It’s your fault! But what does that have to do with the story? And Avraham doesn’t even answer him, and the Torah goes on. There’s a powerful message here: some people when they get afflicted and they get hurt, they reflect: what can I do to change myself? What’s causing me to be in this situation? But some people like Pharaoh, miss the point. Instead of blaming and complaining and telling everybody why it’s their fault, why don’t you view your own actions? Think about yourself. Pharaoh represents a mode of thinking, let’s avoid that way of thinking and let’s live real and honest… Today.

You know, there are things that people wish they could just drop. Sometimes you're yelled at, you feel fear and you just do what you're told to do. You can yell at your kids and you can make them listen to you, but it doesn't last. The holy Re...

One day, the Holy Or HaMeir came to visit his friend the Meor Einayim who was in prison. And he wanted to bribe the guards so that he can take the place of the Meor Einayim, so that he could escape. And the Meor Einayim said: It's okay, I'm leavin...

His name was Reb Yisroel Friedman, he was the king of all Rebbes; he was known as the holy Ruzhiner. Why was his name Friedman? Because his father's name was Shalom, so in Yiddish he named himself Fried-man – a man of peace. And as he was escap...

Some people see the month of Mar-Cheshvan as "Mar" – a bitter month. It's the time when the leaves come down, the winter begins, the sukkah is packed away and the Lulav is on top of your door, and that Esrog is turning into compote. But the holy R...

I have a friend who went off the deep, and he told me “I’m just like Avraham Avinu. He went away from his parents and his heritage, and I’m doing the same.” But there’s one thing that he missed. The holy Minkatcher says: It doesn’t say אל הארץ אשר...

What's the fundamental difference between Noach and Avraham Avinu? Noach gave musser for a hundred and twenty years, but it didn't work. וּמַלְכִּי צֶדֶק מֶלֶךְ שָׁלֵם הוֹצִיא לֶחֶם וָיָיִן - Malki Tzedek taught Avraham Avinu, that with לחם ויין ...
