Listen "Before the sword is lifted… the tongue strikes first - Acharei Mot - Kedoshim - Dallas Messianic"
Episode Synopsis
This week’s double Torah portion, Acharei Mot – Kedoshim, delivers 102 mitzvot — nearly one-sixth of the entire Torah. But there is one verse in particular that leaps off the page with piercing relevance for our generation:“Do not go about as a talebearer among your people. Do not stand idly by the blood of your neighbor. I am Hashem.” (Vayikra/Leviticus 19:16)In this week’s video drash, we go beyond the surface — and dive into the heart of what it means to truly live as Hashem’s people in an age of deception, apathy, and moral confusion.You’ll hear voices from multiple speakers, each tackling this powerful parashah from a different angle:Why slander and silence are linked in the Torah — and how they fuel the world’s greatest evilsWhat Jewish law says about intervening when someone is in danger — physically or spirituallyHow to identify modern-day idolatry and protect your personal mikdash (sanctuary)What the Talmud really says (and doesn’t say) — and how our enemies use it out of context to slander usWhy your daily prayer, repentance, and speech are the new korbanot (offerings) in an age without a TempleIn a world where lies are weaponized and truth is ridiculed, the Torah doesn’t just ask us to believe — it commands us to act.
