Never Get Used to Miracles | The Laws of War and Peace (1)

Description

In the opening episode of The Laws of War and Peace, Rav Shlomo Katz and the chevra of Shirat David begin learning from Hilchos Milchamah VeShalom by Rav Shmuel Eliyahu and ask a piercing question for our generation: what happens when Jews become used to miracles? As missiles fly, sirens sound, and impossible salvations become part of daily life, Rav Shlomo warns that the deepest danger is not only the threat from our enemies, but the possibility of losing our hakarah—that we are living inside open nissim from Hashem. From Moshe Rabbeinu saving a fellow Jew, to David HaMelech’s war with Goliath, to Mordechai and Esther’s holy courage, this episode lays the foundation for a Torah of gevurah: real Jewish strength is never self-worship. It is ויגבה לבו בדרכי השם—a heart lifted in the ways of Hashem. This is a Torah about war, humility, miracles, soldiers, aliyah, and the spiritual responsibility of living through history with open eyes. ---------- 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 Sponsorship and Dedication Prayers 01:04 Introducing Hilchos Milchamah VeShalom Sefer 02:28 Current War Reality and Psychological Challenges 04:07 Soldiers as Humble Heroes (Gibborim) 06:27 Incorporating Psalms and Gratitude in Daily Prayer 08:45 Moshe’s First Act and Prophetic Elevation 11:21 David and Esther: Heroism Yielding Spiritual Power 20:16 Recent Casualties and the Call for Renewed Resolve 23:05 Gavus Lev vs Spiritual Uplift 25:39 Ballistic Missile Threats in Recent Years 26:46 Burning Evil Before Complete Redemption 34:10 Spiritual Elevation Through Soldiers' Sacrifice 35:38 Relating to Diaspora After the War 37:26 Future of Judaism Exists Only in Israel 43:43 Closing: Continue Next Session Wednesday
