Why doesn't Yom Kippur come before Rosh HaShannah? Why don't we wipe our slates clean before Yom HaDin? And why is it that we fast before Rosh HaShannah and feast on Rosh HaShannah, while we feast before Yom Kippur and fast on Yom Kippur? Why do we recite long Selichos before Rosh HaShannah and short ones before Yom Kippur?…

Can't make this stuff up. On Erev Shabbos Shuvah, our Daf taught us how to see ourselves as Beinonim on the scale of Hashem's Din and the impact of Teshuvah at the last moment. Correction: At the time of this recording, Nach Yomi had just begun Megilas Rus, not Koheles.By Yehoshua Eisenberg

In the most famous Haftarah, we read the story of Yonah. Why? Because Ninveih does Teshuvah? If that's true, we should only read Chapter 3, not the whole book. Why do we need to hear about Yonah being swallowed by a fish? Because it's cool? And why do we need to read about the strange Kikayon-plant at the end?…

Interestingly, the word “healing” has the same etymological root as “wholeness.” This means that healing in the ultimate sense is achieving wholeness. Patanjali said that all our suffering comes from the ignorance of believing that we are separate from the whole.

'HaVein Yakir Li Efrayim' is not only a beautiful song, but it is a question posed by the Navi; is Efrayim really precious? Do we deserve salvation? Can our innocence be defended in a court of Din?
