How are people coping in Israel?

Shabbat Shalom

This week’s parasha Behaalotecha, takes us on a journey through leadership, humility, and the incredible power of our words.

At the heart of the portion lies a striking and painful episode: the story of Miriam and Aaron speaking about Moses behind his back. What did they say—and why was it so serious? The Torah’s response is swift and clear, reminding us that even well-meaning words, spoken in private, can have lasting consequences.

Why is gossip, or lashon hara, treated with such severity in Jewish thought? What can we learn from Moses’ humble reaction, and how does this story still speak to our modern relationships, families, and communities?

Join us as we unpack one of the most psychologically rich and spiritually vital lessons of the Torah: the discipline of speech, the beauty of humility, and the path to true inner purity.

Watch now and discover the lasting lessons of Parshat Behaalotecha!
