Our world becomes increasingly hectic and less and less private: Web crawlers and chatbots trawl our lives, our likes, our on-line purchases, our weaknesses, and our politics. One of Judaism’s great gifts to the world is hitbodadut, mindful seclusion, being alone with who you are, conversing with your soul and being in touch with yourself. In 1972, Rabbi Yaakov Asher Sinclair opened SARM Studios the first 24-track recording studio in Europe where Queen mixed “Bohemian Rhapsody”. His music publis...

This is a story I heard from my mechutan, my son-in-law's father, Rabbi Michoel Bachar: “When my parents arrived in Eretz Yisrael, they settled near Binyamina. This was about 75 years ago. It was a very difficult time in Eretz Yisrael. It was just after the war. It was the time of the tzena – there was almost nothing to eat. My father bought a donkey and a plow and hired himself out as a ploughman. It was very hard work. My mother learned to sew and worked as a seamstress - and that's how they m...

Lyrics: LIKE A HURRICANE –Robert Levinsky and Yaakov Asher Sinclair ©1978/2018 A little lower than the Angels You placed Man, With all the power to be a partner in Your great plan. A heart that’s filled with lust and anger betrays the soul, We can reach a little higher, our wings unfold. Like a Hurricane – reaching for the sky where angels fear to fly, Like a Hurricane - - they fall away - our feet of clay Like a Hurricane – Don’t look down! We left the ground. Borne on wings of prayer. The worl...

In 1932, Maxwell House put out a Pesach Haggadah as a marketing promotion. It’s been continuously in print since then. They’ve printed over 50 million copies. Pesach is the most observed of all the Jewish festivals. Even whenJews become secular, and all the other festivals fall by the way, Pesach still hangs in there. Why is that? What is it about Pesach that is so deeply rooted in the Jewish psyche? Chag Kasher v'Sameach! In 1972, Rabbi Yaakov Asher Sinclair opened SARM Studios the first 24-tra...

These are the things that Hashem commanded to do them:” (35:1) Here's a parable drawn from motorcycles to illustrate the concept of ‘bidieved’ - an untranslatable word usually translated as ‘after the fact.’ A mitzva has an ideal – lechatchila – way to be performed, but there is also a degree of latitude that, while not ideal, will still cause the mitzva to have its effect. That's 'bidieved.' But what's that got to do with motorcycles? In 1972, Rabbi Yaakov Asher Sinclair opened SARM Studios the...

What’s the connection between Shema and Teruma? Our Sages tell us that one fiftieth is the average tithe that a farmer should give to the kohen from his grain and produce. The Vilna Gaon explains that the word 'terumah' is an allusion to 'trei m’meah', meaning two out of one hundred, which is one fiftieth. But if the word ‘teruma’ is hinting at a fiftieth, why use a word that hints to two parts in a hundred? In 1972, Rabbi Yaakov Asher Sinclair opened SARM Studios the first 24-track recording st...
