Why does the Torah open Parshat Naso with בני גרשון—and why are they the ones who need their heads lifted?

Join Rav Shlomo Katz as he dives deep into the Torah of Even Shlomo, the teachings of Rav Shlomo Carlebach, to reveal the inner world of those who feel cast out, rejected, or spiritually divorced from their source. What does it mean to feel מגורש—exiled, pushed away? And how does the Torah respond?

Through the lens of the name גרשון, Rav Shlomo brings healing to anyone who’s ever felt like God wasn’t interested in them. We learn that lifting the head doesn’t just mean cheering someone up—it means elevating the way they think. Seeing exile not as rejection, but as preparation. Realizing that you can only be divorced from a place you were once deeply connected to.

This is a Torah for those who feel spiritually stuck, who wonder if they’ve been left behind. It's for those who need another Har Sinai—a new revelation that reminds them: you were never really exiled. You just need to lift your head.

In this shiur:

Why the name Gershon holds the secret to spiritual return

What it really means to be "divorced" from God

How the Levi'im were masters of lifting people out of despair

Why post-Shavuot is when we need Har Sinai the most

And how Rav Shlomo Carlebach’s Torah heals the souls of the “גם הם”—those who wonder if they’re still wanted

This teaching is from Even Shlomo on Sefer Bamidbar, with live reflection and depth from Rav Shlomo Katz.
