What’s the holiest site in Judaism?

It’s not where we received the Torah.

As we approach Shavuot, we remember Har Sinai — but also realize it was only the beginning.

The Torah wasn’t meant to stay in the desert. It was meant to be lived, built, and radiated from the Land of Israel.

This is the full picture. This is the dream.

The return of Yerushalayim is not just history; it’s a wonder, a sign that Hashem has returned to Zion.

The Jewish people being back in Yerushalayim is just the beginning. Our mission? To radiate the light of Torah, goodness, and kindness to the entire world.

Yerushalayim belongs to the Jewish people — but its light is meant to shine on all nations.

Our home isn’t exile, it’s Yerushalayim.

There is a deep longing of the Jewish soul for the holy city — a place where spiritual and physical wholeness meet, and the light of holiness shines.

Even in the safety of places like North America, we’re still in galut. Our hearts remain turned toward Jerusalem.

We pray for her peace. For her rebuilding. For a world made whole.

Though the absence of the Beis Hamikdash limits their full expression, our yearning for Divine connection remains powerful.

King David danced before God with all his might—reminding us that our bodies, too, are vessels for praise.

Time is a construct—but what if we told you there’s a Jewish way to relate to it that changes everything?

In Jewish time, there’s something called a chalak—a unit of time that lasts just 3.5 seconds.

Sounds tiny? It is.

But when you learn to use each Chalak intentionally, those tiny moments add up to massive impact.

In this reel, we talk about how this ancient concept holds a powerful secret to living a more meaningful, purposeful life—one halak at a time. ✨

Not all traits are good or bad. It’s all about how you channel them.

Judaism teaches that even so-called “negative” traits—like anger or stubbornness can be used for good.

The Jewish people are called a stiff-necked nation.

It sounds harsh… but that same stubbornness is what helped us survive 2,000 years of exile.

Anger? Destructive when uncontrolled but powerful when used to fight injustice or stand up for what’s right.

Every trait has potential.

The question is: how will you use it?

What does enlightenment look like in Judaism? It’s not about escaping the physical, it’s about elevating it. Rebbe Shimon bar Yochai teaches us that true holiness is found in the everyday: in honoring Shabbat, in carrying myrtle, in seeing the sacred within the simple. #judaism #spirituality #shabbat #baryochai #lagbaomer #jewishwisdom To watch Torah Thoughts in video format, click HERE
