2020/02/17

An interview with Rabbi David Wolpe, the Max Webb Senior Rabbi at Sinai Temple in Los Angeles. Rabbi Wolpe is among the leading figures of American Judaism, a colomnist for Time Magazine, and perhaps the most recognizable plant-based Rabbi of our time. We discuss how he navigates addressing his diet publicly and from the pulpit, some of his favorite vegan foods, as well as the optimism he feels for the future of the plant-based movement.

Shamayim: Jewish Animal Advocacy ·

2020/02/13

A D'var Torah for Parashat Yitro. In this week’s parsha, the Israelites receive the Ten Commandments at Mt. Sinai. Not only are animals given some pretty radical rights here, but there is foreshadowing for next week’s narrative of the golden calf with a warning against idols of silver & idols of gold. We are plagued with some radical worshipers of these idols - Big Agriculture, who exploit animals, undocumented laborers, the small farmers they put out of business, and the American taxpayers who are

2020/01/30

A D'var Torah for Parashat Bo. In this week’s parsha, the Israelites are commanded to be reminded of the Exodus with a symbol on the arm and between the eyes: tefillin! Tefillin are somewhat controversial in the Jewish vegan world - but are there options to minimize the impact of this mitzvah? We explore them in this week’s episode.

2020/01/23

A D'var Torah for Parashat Vaera. The Israelites are plagued with crushed souls, Pharaoh is plagued with a hardened heart, and the Egyptians are plagued with numerous environmental calamities. All are reflections of normal human responses to our world. How can we overcome these feelings in our time, despite our overwhelming circumstances facing us?

Shamayim: Jewish Animal Advocacy ·

2020/01/16

A D'var Torah for Parashat Shemot. Centuries have passed, and a xenophobic Pharaoh has enslaved the Israelites because he fears them. A loving mother breaks the law, and her “illegal” child grows up and becomes the greatest leader the Jewish people have ever seen. Nevertheless, Moses is an odd choice for numerous reasons - and yet, he is the one chosen to raise his voice to liberate his people.

Plant-Based Torah - Parashat Vayechi: True Strength!

Shamayim: Jewish Animal Advocacy ·

2020/01/09

A D'var Torah for Parashat Vayechi. As we conclude the book of Genesis with this week’s parsha, we take a look back at the opening book of the Torah, and how we can apply its major themes through action in our lives. True strength, as portrayed by Genesis, is needed now more than ever before. Recorded & edited by Alex Weisz "Uniq - Japan" is under a Royalty Free license.

A D'var Torah for Parashat Vayigash. Upon arriving to Egypt for good, Joseph's brothers introduce themselves to Pharaoh as shepherds, the profession of their ancestors. Shepherds play a prominent role throughout Biblical literature - so what lessons should we as modern Jews take from this ancient profession?

2019/12/26

A D'var Torah for Parashat Miketz. This week’s parsha features the quiet heroism of an unlikely figure - the Pharaoh of Egypt! And no - it’s not the one who you’re probably thinking of. Just as we should detest the cruelty of his successor who enslaved the Israelites, we should celebrate the Pharaoh of late Genesis who makes bold, swift changes in the face of looming environmental disaster.

Shamayim: Jewish Animal Advocacy ·

2019/12/19

A D'var Torah for Parashat Vayayshev. Commentators have wondered for centuries whether Joseph was genuinely righteous, or merely self-righteous. Perhaps his brother’s resentment towards him can teach us how we can best cultivate a welcoming and inviting plant-based movement without drawing resentment from others.

A D'var Torah for Parashat Vayishlach. This week, Jacob faces his toughest challenge yet - and prevails. He then has his name changed to Israel, meaning literally to have "wrestled with God". In our time, the children of Israel and the rest of humanity face our most daunting opponent in history. How can we follow Jacob's lead and tackle this issue head-on?
