How are people coping in Israel?

Shabbat Shalom!

This week, we read the double portion of Acharei Mot–Kedoshim, exploring what it truly means to be holy—and why holiness is never a solo journey.

Why does the Torah follow the tragic death of Aaron’s sons with the sacred rituals of Yom Kippur? And what warning does this hold for anyone who seeks to lead or rise spiritually?

Through the lens of the High Priest, the four species of Sukkot, and the Nazir, we uncover a powerful message: holiness must always be rooted in humility, service, and connection to the community.

Join us as we reflect on the dangers of spiritual pride and the responsibility we carry to uplift—not separate from—those around us.

Watch now and be inspired by the communal calling of Parshat Acharei Mot–Kedoshim!
