The Demands of Teaching 13,000 Classes | Rabbi Daniel Glatstein | Behind the Bima #186

Description

Doctors and lawyers spend years studying their fields in a professional way, so why should Torah be any different? In this episode of Behind the Bima, the Rabbis sit down with Rabbi Daniel Glatstein to explore what authentic Torah teaching actually demands—discipline, preparation, restraint, and a willingness to uphold standards even when they’re unpopular. This conversation is not about shortcuts, trends, or emotional uplift. It’s about responsibility: to the text, to the audience, and to the seriousness of Torah itself. In a time when Torah is shared faster and more broadly than ever, Rabbi Glatstein reflects on what can be lost without structure, why boundaries protect depth, and how humility and consistency shape lasting impact. 🆕 New episodes release Tuesdays at 6:00 AM EST 🔔 Subscribe so you never miss an episode of Behind the Bima: https://www.youtube.com/@rabbiefremgoldberg === Listen to over 13,000 classes from Rabbi Glatstein: https://www.torahanytime.com/speakers/105 === CHAPTERS: 0:00 - Intro 0:16 - Banter 15:40 - Interview === Also available on Apple and Spotify: 🍎 Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/behind-the-bima/id1513477929 🎧 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0hhhCkfDDy9ppIOnASBvjQ === This season of Behind the Bima is sponsored by Julie Charlestein & Darryl Benjamin in honor of their grandparents, Morton & Malvina Charlestein, and their children, Ruby and Maccabi Benjamin.
