Rabbi Akiva

Rabbi Akiva: "Rabbi Akiva was the ultimate outsider in Jewish life. By this I mean that he came to his greatness not because of family lineage. He was descended from converts to Judaism, and for the first forty years of his life, he was completely unlettered and ignorant. He even freely admitted that in those years, he had a deep and abiding hatred towards the Torah scholars.

Like many of the greatest leaders of the Jewish people (Jacob, Moses, and David,) Rabbi Akiva served as a shepherd. His employer was Kalba Savua, the wealthiest Jew of the day. Kalba Savua’s daughter Rachel fell in love with Rabbi Akiva, married him, and then encouraged him to go away to study Torah."

Gaga For God: "For A long time I have heard the refrain, “We are going to have to wait for Moshiach to answer this question”. Each and every time I heard that specific answer I never liked it. In truth it is not the American way to wait for anything."

Vayigash |

Vayigash |: "looking at the 12 brothers, using human values, we again can imagine that something must have welled up in Yehudah, when he realized that the brothers were having difficulty in convincing Yakov to allow Yakov, to come down to Egypt. Yet, Yehudah’s powers of persuasion were again required, and Yehuda did not reamain silent and again stepped up, and came up with a plan, and made a promise to Yakov his father, pledging his soul as collateral. Yehuda told his father Yakov that it would have be that he would have sinned against his father for all time if he did not return with Benjamin."
