Torah Comes to Life | Rabbi Nir Menussi ·

2025/12/05

In this fascinating talk, Rabbi Nir Menussi discusses the global resurgence of antisemitism, describing it as a "light sleeper" that has fully awakened in both classical right-wing nationalism and modern left-wing anti-Zionism. Drawing on the philosophy of the Rebbe, he presents a radically positive approach: instead of getting caught in the "victim mentality" of fighting the darkness—by constantly labeling and calling out antisemites—the focus should be on spreading light. Antisemitism should serve

In Parashat Shoftim, the Torah lists practices such as divination, sorcery, witchcraft, and necromancy — and calls them abominations. But what do these words really mean? Why are they forbidden, and how are they relevant today?In this 90-minute class, Rabbi Nir Menussi explores the Torah’s vision of the occult and shows how these ancient prohibitions remain deeply relevant in the modern world.

What if the most profound explanation for anti-Semitism was hidden in a science fiction classic? In this episode, I explore Arthur C. Clarke’s Childhood’s End (1953) and uncover a startling parallel between its central idea and the way Jews have been perceived throughout history. From the Christian demonization of Jews to modern anti-Zionism, I propose that the Jewish people are often feared and hated not for what they do, but for what they represent: a challenge to the world’s existing order, and a

What really caused the destruction of the Temples—and how do we make sure it never happens again?

As we mourn past destructions,

Why is the modern world turning to plant-based psychedelics for healing? What is the spiritual root of this movement, and how should Torah-based Judaism respond?In this rich, thought-provoking lecture, we trace the rise of the psychedelic movement through the lens of Jewish mysticism—from the serpent in Eden, through the Zohar’s inner map of mind, heart, and body, to the prophetic vision of Torat Mashiach.
