When we witness the fall of someone who has embodied evil, the tangle of emotions can be as complex as the Talmudic debates themselves. In this episode we embark on a riveting journey through the Jewish lens on justice, mercy, and the celebration—or lack thereof—of an adversary's demise. Our conversation was sparked by the global reactions to the death of the Iranian president, Ibrahim Raisi Y"S, a poignant moment that brought ancient teachings squarely into the present. Rabbi Nagel shared his insights on the nuanced dance between human joy and angelic restraint, raising questions about our response to the end of wickedness.
Amidst our dialogue, we traversed the moral landscape that defines Jewish identity, especially when confronting unrepentant foes. The episode traverses the treacherous path of "misplaced mercy" against the backdrop of survival, with historical echoes from the Mossad's storied interventions. Personal narratives and the hope-infused message of Pesach Sheini added layers of complexity to our discussion, reminding us that even amidst the gravest of circumstances, there remains room for repentance and redemption. As we scrutinized international reactions, including those of the United Nations, the conversation inevitably turned toward the critical need to uphold a clear moral compass in our world—a world where the distinction between good and evil must stand unwavering. Join Rabbi Nagel and Rabbi Wolbe for an episode that will confront your convictions and invite a deeper contemplation of justice, responsibility, and the enduring spirit of the Jewish ethos.

When the world seems to spin a little slower and the heart feels the heavy weight of loss, it's the shared stories that bring comfort and understanding. We extend a tender hand through the Unboxing Judaism Podcast, offering solace and wisdom in the wake of Rabbi Nagel’s mother's passing. Our conversation seeks to unfold the layered emotions and spiritual questions that surface during times of mourning, considering why our souls stir with both sorrow and purpose upon entering this world. We traverse the path of Jewish mourning practices, reflecting on Rabbi Nagel's recent experiences, and find solace in the rituals that connect us to the generations before.
As we navigate through the currents of grief, we pause to consider the subtle yet significant influence of a life well-lived. The stories and values of those who have departed continue to cast ripples, touching lives in ways that often only become clear in reflection. We discuss the yearly Yortzeit as a personal reckoning, a time to honor the indelible imprint left by loved ones, akin to a spiritual Yom Kippur for the soul. Through reciting Kaddish and embracing the traditions handed down to us, we commit to carrying forward the torch of our ancestors, ensuring their legacy endures.
Finally, we examine the powerful rituals and customs that guide us through the dark tunnel of loss, emerging with a renewed sense of purpose. From the raw vulnerability of Shiva to the introspective quietude of personal missions, Jewish mourning customs provide a structured space to honor and remember. Sharing anecdotes from my own family, including my grandfather's unique requests, we explore how these practices inspire a deeper search for truth and an authentic expression of grief. In honoring their memory, we discover the most profound tribute to those who have passed is to live a life enriched by their wisdom and love.

Ever wondered why some religious Jews choose not to serve in the Israeli Defense Force (IDF)? You might be surprised to learn that many proudly enlist, paralleling their service with the historical narrative of Moses and the war with Amalek. This episode of Unboxing Judaism Podcast delves into the complex intersection of religious practice and military service - illustrating how Torah study and prayer act as a spiritual shield for the Jewish people. Even amidst the contentious stance taken by certain ultra-Orthodox communities, we strive to offer a balanced perspective on this issue.
We also shed light on the remarkable sense of unity that binds the Jewish people in Israel, especially during times of conflict. Hear heartwarming stories of community members banding together to tie Tzitzis for soldiers, regardless of their religious observance level. This unity, we believe, has the power to precipitate the coming of the Messiah. We wrap up the episode with a call for active faith and an emphasis on our collective responsibility - to foster love and unity among all Jews, irrespective of our differences. Tune in for an enlightening discussion and a prayer for the peace and safety of the Jewish people.

Prepare to embark on a captivating journey with Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe and Rabbi Yaakov Nagel, as they trace the intricate customs of hair covering for married Jewish women back to its roots in the Torah. Promise to be intrigued as they grapple with challenging questions - from the extra stringency of some women choosing to shave their heads to the ongoing halacha discussion about the modesty of wearing wigs. They provide rich insights, exploring the various perspectives held by different rabbis and dissecting why this custom holds an irreplaceable position in our tradition.
In the latter section of their conversation, they shift their focus to the potent power encapsulated in modesty and dignity. Modesty is more than a superficial trait, it's a character attribute that translates into our behavior and demeanor. They discuss the royal elegance it confers, the intrigue it arouses, and the admiration it draws. Their conversation will highlight how our status as children of Hashem is reflected in the grace and dignity we maintain and how this is perceived even outside the Jewish community. Be prepared for a compelling discussion on how modesty profoundly shapes our self-perception, relationships, and interactions with the world at large.
this Episode (#18) of the Unboxing Judaism Podcast is dedicated in honor of Dr. Leonard & June Goldberg
