    Amplify Your Chanukah: Unraveling the Spiritual Energy and Significance of Lighting the Menorah

    Are you prepared to unearth the profound spiritual energy that the Festival of Lights, Chanukah, brings forth? Join us, as we engage in a deeper understanding of each holiday and the significance of mitzvahs, which are not simply religious rituals, rather, they are the building blocks of our relationship with God. As we prepare our hearts to light the Menorah during the special days of Chanukah, we'll aim to become worthy vessels receiving divine light.

    This journey will take us into the heart of each mitzvah, where we'll discover an unexplored inner light and power. We'll tease out the essence of Chanukah and why it demands more than a passing familiarity, but rather a dedication and commitment akin to nurturing a deep and loving marriage. Expounding on our sages' teachings, we will strive to perform one mitzvah in its absolute perfection. Finally, we delve into why the 25th word in the Torah, light, makes Chanukah such a powerful day. Equipped with these insights, may we all become radiant vessels of divine light for the world this Chanukah.

    This episode (#247) of the Jewish Inspiration Podcast by Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe is dedicated in Honor of Bill & Lili Stern and our Holy Soldiers in the Battlefield and our Torah Scholars in the Study Halls who are fighting for the safety of our nation!

    Sibling Rivalry and Spiritual Revelations (Parsha Inspiration on Vayeishev)

    Prepare to unravel the captivating story of Joseph in Parasha Vayeshev. Discover profound lessons on leadership, resisting temptation, and being misunderstood - all embodied in the life of Joseph. We'll also journey into Joseph's dreams, casting light on their positive interpretations as divinely guided prophecies. We touch upon the sensitive subject of favoritism in families, demonstrating how each child, just like Joseph, can be a 'favorite' in their unique way. If you've ever been caught in the throes of jealousy or are intrigued by the dynamics of sibling rivalry, this episode is sure to offer you valuable insights.

    As we navigate these uncertain times, we feel compelled to address faith - especially in the context of the global pandemic. We will explore how faith in God and confidence in modern medicine, like the COVID-19 vaccine, are not mutually exclusive but can coexist harmoniously. Health and healing come from Hashem, but it's crucial to acknowledge and appreciate the human endeavors aimed at combating the virus. As we wrap up this rich and thought-provoking conversation, we extend a warm Chanukah greeting to all our listeners. Get ready for an episode packed with inspiring takeaways!

    This episode (#38) of the Jewish Inspiration Podcast by Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe is dedicated in Honor of Dr. Harvey Rosenstock

    The Plane That Flew Under the Radar – The Secret to Permanent Change (Day 107 - Orchos Tzaddikim | Remembrance 8)

    In four powerful reminders from Orchos Tzaddikim, Rabbi Wolbe teaches us how to live every single day with awe, humility, and unstoppable growth:

    1. Stay in your lane of wonder Remember you are lower than the angels yet infinitely higher than animals. Hashem made you master of the entire physical world — fruit, fish, birds, beasts — and then revealed His deepest secrets to you in the Torah. The only proper response is to walk through life like a humbled servant who has just been crowned king: “How grateful one must be for all of this!”
    2. Grow so slowly the Yetzer Hara doesn’t even notice The secret to permanent change is tiny, tiny habits. Rabbi Wolbe shares his grandfather’s Yom Kippur War story: the IDF flew the plane just inches above the sand to stay under Egyptian radar. “That’s how we grow,” he says. If you announce “I’ll never speak lashon hara again!” the yetzer hara shoots you down instantly. But if you quietly commit to never switching on one unnecessary light on Shabbos — a tiny blip — the yetzer hara thinks it’s just a bird. Once that tiny mitzvah becomes part of your DNA, the ground beneath you rises, the radar rises with it, and suddenly you’re flying high without ever having triggered the alarm. “Small step → habit → new you → higher radar → next small step.” Quotable gem: “The yetzer hara has perfect radar for big declarations… but it completely misses the guy crawling under the fence with one tiny improvement.”
    3. Invest in real friends (without an agenda) Always do good for others exactly the way you wish they would do good for you — but do it because it’s right, not because you’ll have a side benefit that they love you back. Rabbi Wolbe contrasts this with a famous self-help book on “how to win friends” that left him disgusted: “That book teaches how to kiss up so people will kiss up to you. That’s networking, not friendship.” True brotherhood is loving them for their sake, not yours. “Reveal your deepest secrets only to one in a thousand… but give your kindness to everyone.”
    4. Fall in love with the world every single morning Because we see sunrises, rain, flowers, and stars every day, we stop being amazed — and that is the greatest tragedy. Orchos Tzaddikim demands we live as if we were blind from birth and today, for the first time, our eyes opened. “Pretend you just landed from Mars and you’ve never seen a tulip, a thunderstorm, or a Texas sunset — then look!” Rabbi Wolbe confesses he was “a little selfish” this Shabbos and bought his wife tulips because he personally finds them breathtaking. His plea: “Pull over on the side of the road when you see that sunset. It’s Hashem’s personal love note to you right now. Don’t get used to miracles.”

    Hidden Miracles: How Hashem Saves You Every Day Without You Knowing (Day 106 - Orchos Tzaddikim | Remembrance 7)

    In this powerful Mussar Master Class (Day 106), Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe teaches three vital daily remembrances from Orchos Tzaddikim:

    1. Regularly seek solitude (hitbodedut) — most interpersonal sins (lashon hara, flattery, mockery, arrogance) only happen in company. Alone time protects us from sin and opens the door to intimate conversation with Hashem in nature, gratitude, confession, and heartfelt prayer.
    2. Remember how many hidden miracles Hashem performs for us every single day — accidents we narrowly missed, flights we were delayed for, floods we escaped, dangers we never even knew existed. Hashem is constantly shielding us in ways we will never fully know until the World to Come.
    3. All money and success is a temporary deposit from Hashem — He can give or take it in a single moment. Therefore, never be arrogant about wealth, never mock the poor, never refuse to repay debts or return stolen items joyfully, and always pray that Hashem guide you to use “His money” exactly the way He wants.

    The class is filled with awe-inspiring stories: the rabbi whose insistence on retrieving his tefillin delayed the second 9/11 plane and saved thousands of lives, the man who arrogantly declared “Hashem can never take my money” and lost it — then regained it — overnight, and the breathtaking miracles hidden inside a single leaf or the human body.

    Your Soul Is on Loan – Keep It Spotless (Day 105 - Orchos Tzaddikim | Remembrance 6)

    In this episode of the Jewish Inspiration Podcast, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe continues in the Orchot Tzaddikim (Day 105, page 615), summarizing the first 12 daily remembrances—Hashem creating us from nothing, granting health, wisdom, Torah, mercy, repentance, and constant closeness—before introducing four more. The 13th urges recognizing when our wisdom and wealth exceed our deeds: if blessed with intellect or money, we must act accordingly now, not delay with “when I earn more, then I’ll give.” Rabbi Wolbe shares a young donor who gave $130,000 already toward a $250,000 goal and a Shabbat table debate on lottery winnings, exposing how the yetzer hara pushes charity to “later.” The 14th teaches greeting everyone with a warm smile (sever panim yafot), as water reflects a face, so does the heart (Mishlei 27:19); his great-grandfather perfected this trait for two years despite personal suffering.

    The 15th reminds us to prepare for the World to Come like stocking a pantry or travel food—accumulate mitzvot, kindness, and Torah, as we don’t know when our time ends. The 16th stresses the soul’s purity: strong, healthy people die suddenly because Hashem reclaims His “deposit.” Like collateral or a leased car, life is lent; we must keep the soul pristine, repenting daily “one day before death” (as tomorrow may be it). Rabbi Wolbe likens life’s ups and downs to a living EKG—flatlines are dead—urging us to embrace curveballs, swing hard, and turn tough days into home runs.

    The One Daily Habit That Guarantees Eternal ROI (Day 104 - Orchos Tzaddikim | Remembrance 5)

    In this episode of the Jewish Inspiration Podcast, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe continues in the Gate of Remembrance from Orchos Tzaddikim (Day 104, top of page 611), presenting three daily remembrances to sharpen spiritual awareness. The tenth calls for a daily accounting: Did you follow your yetzer hara (evil inclination) or your Yotzer (Creator)? He urges listeners to serve Hashem more than themselves, and if they’ve fallen short until now, to begin immediately with full effort. The eleventh contrasts the frantic energy people pour into earning money—waking early, obsessing day and night, and valuing only business connections—with the minimal effort often given to the soul, which is eternal. Rabbi Wolbe shares a personal anecdote about a donor who offered charity only in exchange for business leads, highlighting how worldly pursuits can corrupt even good deeds. He warns that wealth often brings more harm than happiness and is ultimately temporary, while the soul’s enrichment lasts forever.

    The twelfth remembrance is that Hashem sees and knows everything—every thought, intention, and private moment. Just as one prepares meticulously (haircut, fine clothing) to stand before a king or the Supreme Court, how much more should we prepare to stand 24/7 before the King of Kings? Rabbi Wolbe cites Joseph dressing properly before Pharaoh and a former secular hostage who began praying Shema daily in a dark bunker, proving closeness to Hashem is possible anywhere. The episode closes with a bonus reflection on truth in Torah and life: multiple perspectives can be valid (elu v’elu divrei Elokim chayim), as in marriage, parenting, or halacha. Parents must honor each child’s unique path (chanoch l’na’ar al pi darko), recognizing different gifts and challenges without comparison or unfair expectations.

    The Art of Wholehearted Devotion: Body, Heart, and Intention (Day 103 - Orchos Tzaddikim | Remembrance 4)

    In this episode of the Jewish Inspiration Podcast, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe explores Day 103 from the "Gate of Remembrance" in the Orchos Tzaddikim, emphasizing how servants of a king perform tasks with utmost speed, focus, and dedication—turning off distractions and channeling all their energy into fulfilling the king's needs. He draws parallels to serving Hashem, urging listeners to approach mitzvot with the same intensity: expressing gratitude meticulously, performing actions with grace and diligence, and investing in the highest quality items, like the finest menorah or mezuzah, as a true expression of love for God. Using the analogy of carefully selecting flowers for a spouse rather than grabbing anything haphazardly, Rabbi Wolbe stresses that mitzvot are not mere obligations but profound demonstrations of devotion, done lovingly and wholeheartedly without shortcuts or indifference.

    He categorizes mitzvot into three aspects: those of the heart, performed purely for Hashem without ulterior motives; those involving the entire body, such as physically engaging in prayer (Shuckling) or shopping for Shabbos to immerse oneself fully; and physical actions like shaking the lulav or sitting in a sukkah, which still require intentional focus beforehand. Rabbi Wolbe highlights the Talmudic teaching to expend up to a third of one's resources on perfecting a mitzvah, promising divine rewards far exceeding the investment when done sincerely. He warns against performing mitzvot for social recognition or personal gain, insisting all deeds be dedicated solely to Hashem's name.

    Is Your Body Betraying God? Remembering to Align Body and Soul (Day 102 - Orchos Tzaddikim | Remembrance 3)

    In this episode of the Jewish Inspiration Podcast, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe continues discussing the Orchos Tzaddikim (Ways of the Righteous) on day 102, focusing on the Gate of Remembrance. He emphasizes daily reflections to maximize joy and happiness. The fifth remembrance highlights God's mercy in granting the Torah, which invites study, questioning, and discourse—unlike a king's letter that might provoke offense if queried. This gift encourages a pursuit of truth through endless exploration and debate.

    The sixth remembrance urges individuals to examine if any part of their body has transgressed divine commands, while observing how all of God's creations faithfully fulfill their purposes. Examples include animals like donkeys and horses performing their roles without complaint, the sun shining relentlessly for millennia, and ocean waves respecting their boundaries. Rabbi Wolbe shares a personal anecdote from a solar eclipse in Athens, Tennessee, where daytime turned to night, prompting crickets to chirp, illustrating the precision of creation. He warns against misusing bodily organs meant for godly pursuits, such as eyes for Torah study or mouths for holy speech.


    The seventh remembrance compares humanity to a servant cared for by a benevolent master, fostering gratitude and humility. One should avoid arrogance or rebellion against God, recognizing life's mission to serve Him.

    Remembering God's Kindness in Every Moment (Day 101 - Orchos Tzaddikim | Remembrance 2)

    In this episode of the Jewish Inspiration Podcast, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe delves into day 101 of his series on "Orchis Tzadikim" (Ways of the Righteous), focusing on the trait of remembrance (Zechira) as a vessel for all mitzvot and Torah. He connects it to biblical references like Tzitzit and Tefillin, which serve as reminders to fulfill God's commandments. Rabbi Wolbe highlights the "Six Constant Mitzvos" from Rabbi Yitzchak Berkowitz's teachings—faith in God, rejecting other gods, God's oneness, love and fear of God, and avoiding stray thoughts—as remembrances achievable every moment. He introduces 30 daily remembrances to foster divine favor but details only the first four: God's creation of humanity from nothing, granting health, bestowing wisdom, and providing the Torah as a life manual. Interwoven with personal stories, such as appreciating the present moment and gratitude for life's gifts, the episode emphasizes constant thankfulness to God for existence, health, intellect, and spiritual guidance.
