Parshat Va'etchanan

This week's parsha is a sea of reeds, literally! Take the Shema and beatbox it through a harmonica...that's how Yuri Lane kicks off Parshat Ve'etchanan, which teaches us how to love G-d with all our hearts and all our souls. His harmonica is a groovy background to Rachel Havrelock's telling of the whole story of how Moses passes along some serious information to Joshua, who's gonna pick up the torch, er, staff, when Moses dies.

Parshat Devarim

Flash forward! Moses is nearly 120 years old. No one who was wandering in the desert for 40 years is around anymore except a few good men. (Joshua and Caleb.) Moving from Numbers (Bemidbar) to Words (Devarim) means switching gears in the Torah, and Shawn Landres gives us a gentle landing. Tune in to review history and learn how not to repeat historical mistakes in the days to come!

Parshat Matot

The best Hasidic Strip ever! (j/k!) No no, it's a great episode, we PROMISE! (As if!) You'll learn a lot! (Psych!) Okay for real though, Parshat Matot is about promises and oaths...and what to do when you just can't keep them. So if you're the type of person who might accidentally have sworn you'd be nice to your little sister this year, or that you'd eat less chocolate, or that you'd curse less, well...listen up.

Parshat Pinchas

Ladies and gentlemen, we're here to talk about five holy women this week who have really cool names. Mahlah, Noa, Holga, Milcah, and Tirza drop in to teach us this week about asking for what you want...and getting it. That's right, it's the badder than bad, cooler than cool, great sisterly legal minds of the Book of Numbers: the Daughters of Tselophechad. Oh word.
