Listen "Humility and Hidden Greatness: Parenting Lessons from Moshe and Miriam"

Episode Synopsis


In this week’s Guiding Generations, Rabbi Shifman explores two powerful parenting lessons from Parshat Behaalotecha. Why does the Torah stress Moshe’s unparalleled humility—and how does it connect to his prophetic clarity? And what does the story of Miriam’s punishment teach us about praising our children without inciting jealousy? Through deep Torah insights and relatable stories, Rabbi Shifman teaches us how to raise children with humility, recognize their potential without overexposing them, and cultivate a perspective that sees godliness in every soul. A must-listen for parents and educators alike.
