Time for AYEH | Reb Shlomo Carlebach on Ki Tisa

Description

As the war with Iran widens, Rav Shlomo Katz turns to one word in Parshat Ki Tisa that may define this moment more than any other: Ayeh — Where? Recent days have brought more Israeli strikes, Iranian missile attacks, and a growing sense that the conflict is both militarily real and spiritually overwhelming. In this shiur, Rav Shlomo explores Moshe Rabbeinu’s cry after the Golden Calf — “Har’eini na et kevodecha” — and the deeper avodah of “Ayeh mekom kevodo.” Drawing on Reb Shlomo Carlebach and Rebbe Nachman, he explains how the deepest question of faith is not pretending everything is clear, but daring to ask Hashem, from within the confusion, “Where is the place of Your glory?” From the aftermath of the Eigel HaZahav, to the hiddenness before Mashiach, to the spiritual danger of “smart” voices that speak falsehood in the name of truth, this episode is a call to stay focused, remain vulnerable, and turn confusion itself into a מקום כבודו — a place where Hashem’s presence can be revealed. ---------- For more Shuirim and Music from Rav Shlomo Katz, visit: https://ravshlomokatz.com Join Rav Shlomo Katz's WhatsApp Community: https://chat.whatsapp.com/KHKOhhPaeHx5Kb74WL9L9a?mode=ems_copy_t CHAPTERS 00:00 Opening Niggun and Prayer Invitation 04:37 Favorite Davening Words and Staying Focused 06:41 Introducing the Key Word Aye m'kom kevodo 09:50 Moshe’s Monologue Bringing Down Rachamim 12:32 Golden Calf, Mishkan, and Chronology Debate 15:59 Divine Hiddenness Before Mashiach 18:26 Future Intellectuals and the Call to Aye 26:57 Finding Hashem's Honor in Our Relationship 28:23 The World as a Spiritual Desert 30:13 Is the Desert Journey Lechatchila or Bediavad? 31:30 The Snake's Role in Humanity's Questioning 32:39 Simple Faith vs. Tested Faith 35:18 Ki Tisa: Begging Hashem’s Presence 37:59 Final Encouragement to the Community
