How Do You React?

Shabbat Table Talk from the desk of Rabbi Alexander Seinfeld

May 1-2, 2026 • 15 Iyar 5786 • Emor (Lev 21–24).

Last week's theme (

"Trouble With a Capital 'T'") was about an inward struggle.

This week, outward.

Scenario #1:

You have company at your dinner table. It's Shabbat, there's a white tablecloth (did you know that's a mitzvah?) and the nicer dishes and so on.

One of your guests is a bit clumsy and spills his wine—that's red wine.

Question for your table: how do you react?

Scenario #2 - your sitting at the dining room table with a book open—not a cheap paperback, but an expensive hardcover book, let's value it at least a $100. Someone (maybe your spouse or other member of your family) brings you a cup of juice or tea or other colorful beverage, and while setting it down, it sloshes onto your book.

How do you react?

These exact scenarios occurred in the lives of two famous rabbis, and their reactions should be instructive to all of us.

In the first scenario, the rabbi was Rav Yisoel Salanter zl and his immediate reaction was to spill some of his own wine and remark, "This table sure is wobbly!"

In the second scenario, the rabbi was Rav Moshe Feinstein zl. The expensive book was the Talmud and the liquid was ink and the spiller was his wife... his immediate reaction was, "That's actually a very pretty color!"

If you think about it, when someone makes a mistake, they already feel bad enough about it, why should you rub it in?

Our job is not to hit them over the head, it's to say, "You are 100% loved despite your mistake and what you have done did not diminish that even a bit!"

Easier said than done, no?


Shabbat Shalom

Oh, We Got Trouble... With a Capital "T"...

Shabbat Table Talk from the desk of Rabbi Alexander Seinfeld

April 24-25, 2026 • 8 Iyar 5786 • Achrei-Kedoshim (Lev 16–20).

Here's a question for your table:

Can you complete the following sentence in a way that anyone could say it truthfully:

"Someone I know is trying to __________, but it's a struggle."

Everyone is struggling with something, right? So I guess in that broad sense, we can be sympathetic and supportive.

But are everyone's personal struggles so particular to them that there is no comparison? Or are there any struggles that are more universal than others? 

It seems to me that one could put it this way:

"Someone I know is trying to change a long-standing habit, but it's a struggle."

One of the core teachings of Jewish wisdom is the universality of the struggle.... Knowing that you and I broadly share the same struggle is a great motivator. In that sense, it's a level playing field.

Whether the habit is food-related, or vaping, or time management, or patterns of speech (like a perpetual complainer), there is a universal human challenge of reclaiming autonomy from a habit.

Try shifting your thinking from, "I'm doing something wrong" to ""I'm caught in a universal trap, and here is the roadmap to get out."

Everyone is indeed struggling with something—usually, it’s the gap between who they are and who they know they could be.


Shabbat Shalom

How To Make the Best Bourbon?

-

 

 

Shabbat Table Talk from the desk of Rabbi Alexander Seinfeld

April 17-1181, 2026 • 1 Iyar 5786 • Tazria-Metzora (Lev 12-15).

Outside of the boutique world of whisky connoisseurship, it takes a minor miracle for a bottle of bourbon to make the mainstream media.
 
Forbes readers saw the headline, “World’s Best Bourbon Costs Only $40.”
 
For a business audience, as for a bourbon drinker, that’s mildly interesting news.
 
But for a Jewish reader looking behind the headlines, there’s a far greater story.
 
Whisky is chametz (leavened) and therefore must be sold or destroyed prior to Pesach. After Pesach, any chametz that was not sold becomes permanently non-kosher. While New Riff whiskies are all Pesach-compliant, that was not always the case.
 
New Riff President Mollie Lewis explained that her family-owned business’s transition to Pesach observance began decades ago when her father Ken operated a retail boutique, the Party Source.
 
“Some of our best customers and close friends are Orthodox Jews. Starting in the early 2000s, Ken would sell all of the chametz to someone for the period of Passover, then buy it back, and he continued that tradition into New Riff.... We have a rabbi who officiates. It’s a wonderful thing—it’s our nod to our history, it’s our nod to our consumers, and we just believe it’s the right thing to do.”
 
Lewis made that comment on a December, 2020 podcast interview with Rabbi Drew Kaplan.
 
But several details in her comments caught the attention of astute listeners who questioned the halachic validity of the sale, including describing it as “very informal.”
 
Since halachah requires the sale of chametz to be made with a formal, legally-binding contract, Lewis’s comment suggested that the necessary legal and religious rigor may have been absent.
 
Rabbi Kaplan describes what happened:
 
“While on the show, one question we discussed regarded their selling of their whisky for Passover, as it is chametz, which ostensibly sounded satisfactory. However, thanks to the thoughtful listenership of the show, I received questions as to what the actual situation was concerning their selling of their chametz and discovered that, while they were used to having sold their chametz, owing to the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic only a few weeks prior to Passover, they had a lot going on and it did not end up happening in 2020.”
 
As a result of the interview (and the listener inquiries), New Riff Kosher formally engaged Cincinnati Kosher to certify their products beginning in 2021.
 
Now, a whisky matures in the barrel for at least four years. Therefore, the first kosher New Riff reached the market in 2025. And that’s the year it started winning major awards, including two double gold medals at the John Barleycorn Awards and their Balboa Rye being ranked fourth in the world by Whisky Advocate.
 
But the biggest honor came at the World Whisky Awards—held on February 8, 2026, where their very first strictly kosher whiskey was named World’s Best Bourbon.
 
Judges described the New Riff Bourbon as “lemon zest and butterscotch on the nose,” leading to “a bright palate with cinnamon, caramel, fresh fig, vanilla cookie, sweet pastry, dried leather, pumpernickel rye, corned beef and brine.” One finishes the experience with the taste of “caramel, lemon peel, crumb cookie and coffee.”
 
As compelling as that whisky surely is to the palate, New Riff has also achieved spiritual greatness: the Lewis family’s heightened attention to kashrus has been followed by grants and other support for the Cincinnati Jewish community.
 
If whisky is your favorite l’chaim, and Kentucky Bourbon is your favorite whisky, then a world-class vintage selling for $40 a bottle is surely something to toast. And knowing that the Lewis family has raised the spiritual bar for their company surely gives greater simcha to every glass.


Shabbat Shalom ... and l'Chaim!

How To Get Post-Matzah Traction?

Shabbat Table Talk from the desk of Rabbi Alexander Seinfeld

April 10-11, 2026 • 24 Nissan 5786 • Shemini (Lev 9–11).

First question for your table: How did you break your "fast" last night?

If you recall from two weeks ago, I suggested we all start pursuing "RI" instead of "AI". 

Go ahead and use AI, but don't pursue it. What we should all be pursuing is RI.

And where would you guess is the first go-to source of RI?

It's our great book called Pirkei Avot. Here's a nugget:

If I'm not for myself, who will be for me?

And if I'm only for myself, what am I? 

Heard that one before?

How about this one: 

The world stands on three things: Torah (wisdom), Avodah (spirituality), and Chesed (acts of kindness). 

Most people excel at one of these at least, some excel at two of them. 

Second question for your table: Should one try to excel at all three?

For the full RI-value, we recommend a good translation with commentary. Our top 3 picks for adults, youth, and children are here.


Shabbat Shalom ... enjoy your challah!


PS - In case you missed the announcement before Pesach, check out our new book: Restoring the Exodus: The Rational Case for the Biblical Narrative. 

Enough With AI, How About Some RI?

-

Shabbat Table Talk from the desk of Rabbi Alexander Seinfeld

March 27-28, 2026 • 10 Nissan 5786 • Tzav (Lev 6-8).

RI? (If you're reading this at the dinner table, try asking if anyone can guess what that stands for...) 

RI refers, of course, to "Rabbi Intelligence."

In classical Jewish thought, there are two kinds of rabbi, A-Rabbi and B=Rabbi.

An A-Rabbi is an Authority figure. Think Moses—tall, long beard, super firm handshake. This is a guy you're going to listen to (if you know what's good for you). 

Now, although Moses has passed on to the next world, he appointed a successor, and his successor a successor, and so on, and we have rabbis today who can trace their authority all the way back up that chain.

A B-Rabbi is a Buddy. It could be your neighbor. It could be your friend. It could be... YOU. Rabbi B may not be in the chain of authority, but there's another chain that everyone can connect to—the chain of learning.

The original author of the Haggadah was certainly a B-Rabbi and most likely an A-Rabbi as well. With his (likely but not necessarily it was a he) erudition, he crafted a learned text for fellow B-Rabbis to use at their Seder.

Herein lies the problem for modern Jews. How many of us are B-Rabbis who can appreciate the depth and breadth of this masterpiece called the Haggadah?

So we have thousands of commentaries—cheat sheets, if you will—to raise the bar and turn a lay person into a B-Rabbi at the Seder.

But there's one small catch: in order to succeed in the B-Rabbi business, you'll need to... (ahem)...study. 

There, I said it. I said it and I know I'll get flack for it.

Because who wants to study a 2,000-year-old text just so that I can have a Seder? If we understood the Haggadah better, wouldn't that risk making our Seder more meaningful and then take longer? Isn't the point to get through it as fast as possible?

If this conundrum speaks to you, then you probably are the target audience for the Art of Amazement Haggada and you definitely need the 2026 JSLI Passover Kit - a ZIP file of over 15 great Seder resources (PDF of full haggadah, bingo cards, charades, etc. etc.). To get the Kit, you can click here.

Question for your table: What's the perfect length for a Pesach Seder?

Shabbat Shalom and

Chag Sameach

PS - this year's Kit includes our "Healthy & Holy Passover" excerpt from Body & Soul, which you can also find via TorahHealth.org.

PPS - Don't forget to get a copy of the new book - Restoring the Exodus: The Rational Case for the Biblical Narrative — we recommend gifting the pocket-size paperback version to every adult at the Seder

A Tactless Attack Tactic?

-

Shabbat Table Talk from the desk of Rabbi Alexander Seinfeld

March 13-14, 2026 • 25 Adar 5786 • Vayakeil-Pekudei (Exod 35-40).

Keep reading for a big announcement! (the image at the left is a hint)

To prepare you for it, here's a question for your table: What's worse - when they attack us physically or spiritually?

For many people, one of the highlights of the Passover Seder (in two weeks and change!) is the song, V'he sheh amda.... 

V'hee she'amda lavoteinu velanu
Shelo echad bilvad amad aleinu lechaloteinu
Eh'la she'b'chol dor va'dor
Omdiim aleinu lechaloteinu
Vehakadosh baruch hu matzileinu miyadam

And this is what kept our ancestors and what keeps us surviving. For, not only one arose and tried to destroy us, rather in every generation they try to destroy us, and God saves us from their hands.

(Here's a group of yeshiva guys singing this week it in a bomb shelter while awaiting their Rabbi to begin the class).

If you don't know the song, start learning it today and by the time Pesach arrives you'll sing it like a pro.

So when they're attacking us in Israel, we understand that because we're "occupiers" or "land stealers." Even in New York we could maybe imagine it's a sociological issue, you know such population density. 

But why are they attacking us in Lyons, Bondi Beach, Jackson, and now Detroit?

The truth is that their hatred is mostly religious, sometimes cloaked in tactful politesse.

Just look at the recent ruling of the European Court of Human Rights: the old Wittenberg Cathedral (home of Martin Luther himself, a major amplifier of this hatred) may continue to display on the outside wall one of the most hideous, disgusting, offensive, painful Jew-hating images ever created - the "Jew Pig."

What was the Court's reason? Because the congregation had installed a plaque nearby declaring that this sculpture is historical but doesn't reflect their modern sensibilities.

Oh really?  

BTW - there are about 30 churches in Europe that choose to continue to be adorned with a "Jew Pig."

(Hat-tip to Michael Duelman, who fought this legal battle for nearly a decade.)

One of the biggest attacks on us has been the 150-year-old battle against our national holiday - Passover.

The central ritual of Passover is to tell the story of the Exodus. But if the Exodus never happened, then apparently our entire religion is a mythology.

Personally, I have no problem believing in and telling a story that my parents and grandparents told me.

But these attacks — some by Jewish clergy — have confused people. Is Judaism ultimately a fairy tale? Does the Torah belong on the same shelf as Aesop's Fables — some nice moral lessons, but with no greater verisimilitude than any other mythology?

To respond to these attacks, I'm pleased to announce a new book - Restoring the Exodus: The Rational Case for the Biblical Narrative

Hardcover
Kindle version
iBooks version

You don't need to wait long for the paperback (pocket-size)... it should be available on Sunday. Just in time to order a stack for your Seder.


Shabbat Shalom

You'll Never Believe These Numbers...

-

Shabbat Table Talk from the desk of Rabbi Alexander Seinfeld

March 6, 2026 • 18 Adar 5786 • Ki Teitsei (Exod 30-34).

So much has happened since last week's Clothes Encounters of the Jewish Kind message, it's hard to wrap your head around it.

(In case you don't follow my podcasts, here's one on the theme of the war and Purim: What Can YOU + I Learn From ʞǝlɐɯ∀?)

The language of numbers is a useful tool for helping think about big things.

Try asking this at your table: How much money would you guess that the nation of Iran has invested over forty years in the singular effort to destroy Israel? How many people would you guess have been involved - full time - in this "Project" ???

I put these two questions into an AI-bot to crunch the numbers. Here are some results:

Category	Estimated Direct Cost (1982–2026)
Proxy & Regional Militias	$45 billion – $55 billion
Missile & Drone Programs	$25 billion – $35 billion
Nuclear Infrastructure (Direct)	$30 billion – $45 billion
TOTAL DIRECT SPENDING	$100 billion – $135 billion

For comparison, that "investment" represents the sum of three years' wages for every Iranian family. It could have fed every Iranian for six years.

How many people have been working on this "Project'?

Category	Avg. Full-Time Personnel	Total Man-Years (Estimated)
Quds Force / IRGC Leadership	8,000	352,000
Hezbollah (Core Regulars)	12,000	528,000
Hamas / PIJ (Militant Wings)	15,000	660,000
Strategic Weapons (R&D/Mfg)	25,000	1,100,000
Regional "Axis" Militias	10,000	440,000
TOTAL	~70,000	~3,080,000

The effort spent on the Project is roughly equivalent to running the entire Iranian healthcare system for nearly a decade, or providing a full year of education for every child in the country for several cycles. The human capital diverted into clandestine warfare has created a reality where there is one full-time "proxy/agent" for every two nurses in the country.

Here's another comparison chart:

Category	Cost Per Family	What it could have bought instead
Proxy Funding	~$1,800	High-speed internet and a modern laptop for every student.
Nuclear Program	~$1,400	A state-of-the-art regional hospital in every major district.
Missile/Drone Dev	~$1,587	A 10-year supply of drought-resistant irrigation for every farm.

The economy has reverted to "pillow" wealth - Iranian households hold around 250 tons of gold coins and jewelry - more than the official gold reserves held by the Central Bank. Rumors of nationalization of private gold has triggered chaos in the streets. This week there has been a surge bartering gold directly for essentials like medicine, satellite internet terminals, and fuel. The gold sections of the major Bazaars in Tehran, Isfahan, and Shiraz have effectively shut down. Merchants are refusing to open their shops, fearing that the "Interim Council" will send security forces to seize their inventory.

So their 40-year national "Project" has now reached its final irony: the state is asking the people to hand over their gold to pay for the very drones and missiles that triggered the Israeli/American strikes now destroying the country’s infrastructure.

According to traditional Jewish sources, when a country - like Nazi Germany or Shia-Iran - becomes singularly focused on killing Jews, it is by definition "Amalek."

Seeing that being dismantled before our eyes is joyous. The job isn't yet complete, but there is every reason to be happy and grateful to have lived to see this moment in history.

The Jewish People have made many mistakes in the past 3,300 years, not least of which was (in this week's Torah Portion) building the Golden Calf. We are far from perfect. Our greatness comes out when we (a) admit and fix our mistakes and (b) unite under the banner of "love your neighbor."

May we continue to hear and share good news.

Shabbat Shalom

Clothes Encounters of the Jewish Kind?

-

Shabbat Table Talk from the desk of Rabbi Alexander Seinfeld

February 27-28, 2026 • 11 Adar 5786 • Tetzaveh (Exod 27-30).

Last week's message was about your skin.

This week's is about the trouble we humans take to cover our skin.

In every culture, clothes are a uniform — they broadcast your tribal affiliation.

Just look at how people around you dress and tell me if you agree or disagree.

Speaking of tribal affiliation, in the news today: the Akuntsu — one of the genocided nations in Brazil — reduced to three individuals — just increased their population by 33.3 percent.

Question for your table: What do you think? Is there hope for them? Can a sole survivor keep a culture alive?

The Torah says yes.

In 1,000 BCE, our first king, Saul (Shaul), was charged with wiping out the fascist Nazi tribe of Amalek.

He did so, but in the erroneous spirit of reciprocal honor, left their King Agag alive for an extra day. 

That was just enough time for Agag to sire a child....

You may recall that the Book of Esther refers to the Hitler-of-the-moment as "Haman the Agagite." 

What do you think — coincidence?

You (yes you, Kimosabee) stand at the end of 4,000 years of an unbroken line from the Patriarchs. As do I.

If even one person can build a nation, imagine what we can do together.

Question for your table: Does your uniform broadcast that you're an MOT?

Shabbat Shalom

Happy ɯᴉɹnԀ !

Skin Deep?

Shabbat Table Talk from the desk of Rabbi Alexander Seinfeld

February 20-21, 2026 • 4 Adar 5786 • Terumah (Exod 25-27).

One of the best engagement activities I ever did as a classroom teacher was also one of the simplest.

You have three bowls of water: ice-cold, room temperature, and hot.

First, if put your hand into the ice water for thirty seconds then immediately into the lukewarm, how would you predict it will feel?

Everyone knows that it's going to feel much warmer.

Now repeat starting with the hot water. What's your prediction? 

That's easy.

Here's the charm: predict what will happen if you simultaneously start with one hand in the cold and the other in the hot?

After everyone makes their prediction, let them try it.

It's a bizarre feeling that we're totally not expecting.

The physiology lesson is that (a) hot and cold are actually relative, not absolute, sensations and (b) we don't actually experience hot and cold (or any other sensation) in our skin or other senses. We experience them in our brains. 

Question for the table: does this mean that if you're feeling too warm or cold you just need to change your mind? What about other feelings?


Shabbat Shalom

What's Jewish About the Super Bowl?

-

Shabbat Table Talk from the desk of Rabbi Alexander Seinfeld

February 13-14, 2026 • 27 Shevat 5786 • Mishpatim (Exod 21-24).
Dedicated to Moshe Yitzchak ben Shoshana - may he have a speedy and complete convalescence.

Yesterday I taught a Fourth Grade class for a teacher on medical leave. He had suggested, "These boys like to talk about football, so if you can make a football reference, you'll for sure get their attention."

As luck would have it, on Sunday I'd been invited to speak at a watch party during Halftime.

So I asked the boys, "Would you be interested to hear about the "5 Things We Can Learn From the Super Bowl?"

Their rebbe was right - most of them eagerly nodded their heads.

A few looked skeptical - and rightly so; why should we pretend to learn anything from the Super Bowl?

This could be the first question for your table.

But in Pirkei Avos we learn that the epitome of wisdom is not how much you know, rather the attitude that everyone has something to teach you. There are no accidents - if someone has to go to the hospital, that's a clear message. But for those who hear the ambulance pass by, that's also a message.

Second question: can you think of any meaningful lessons from the Super Bowl?

Super Bowl Lesson #1 - What's the Nature of Teamwork?

Both Boston ("New England") and Seattle obviously were doing something right to become the two best teams in the country. I was interested to learn that they have very different approaches to building their team spirit.

In Boston, it's basically "nullify yourself to the greater good" of winning. It reminds me of the mentality of ancient Sparta, very warrior-like, and very successful.

In Seattle, their team-building strategy is completely different. It's "I love you, bro." In the Torah we call that "Love your neighbor."

Don't know about you, but I was happy to see the love-your-neighbor team prevail!

Super Bowl Lesson #2 - Which Players Matter Most?

I arrived at the party during the last minute on the clock of the 2nd Quarter. Seattle was leading 6-0 and they went for a field goal. It's remarkable to me that there is an entire team of guys whose only job is to kick a field goal or to defend against one. The entire game they sit on the bench, waiting for their chance. It could be that they never get a chance. Or, it could be that their field goal is crucial to winning the game. 

Many people feel like their role in life is minor and insignificant, but the truth is that everyone matters, not just the quarterback and wide receiver who get most of the attention. If you're on the team, you're on the team and you matter, and you'll also get a ring.

Super Bowl Lesson #3 - What's Called Progress?

The basic rule of football is that you get four attempts to move the ball ten yards before losing possession. But ten yards means 10.0 yards, not 9.99 yards. So the referees are often out there with a measuring tape - every inch counts. 

Anyone trying to do something hard has experienced times where it feels like you're not making any progress. Whether you're building a business, or learning a language, or raising a child - it can feel like you're not going anywhere. But we can be inspired by the rules of football, every inch counts. Slow progress is progress!

Super Bowl Lesson #4 - What Matters?

Most people focus on the strategies of the plays and the leadership of the coaches and the quarterback, and they pay little attention to the linemen. But if you watch what's happening, the essence of football is two lines of men trying to push each other out of the way. These guys are probably the strongest guys in the world. They're not body-builders, indeed they often have bellies. But they are massively strong. 

So too you and I - we tend to focus on high-level goals and ambitions and don't realize how important physical strength is to the Torah's ideal for a person. Most of the things we want to do, including mitzvot, require physical strength.. We have a free gift of strength until about age 30, after which it starts to decline, slowly at first and then more and more rapidly - unless we do something about it. It's not about form, it's about function. Which is good news for anyone who wants to stay strong - because it doesn't take much time.

Super Bowl Lesson #5 - Who's Watching? 

They say that the Super Bowl is the most watched sporting event on Planet Earth. Certainly it's the most watched event in the US. This is also a lesson for us. The Torah tells us that the purpose of a the Jewish People is to be a "kingdom of ministers" - what's that all about? Preaching? No - it means that we are meant to teach the world how to live ethical and holy lives by example. That's our chief job as Jews, and therefore, just like the Super Bowl, if you're Jewish, the whole world is watching. Don't ever forget it.

Ten Suggestions?

-

Shabbat Table Talk from the desk of Rabbi Alexander Seinfeld

February 6-7, 2026 • 20 Shevat 5786 • Yithro (Exod 18-20).

This should be an easy question for your table:

Can you name the 10 Commandments?

Bonus: In correct order?

It's interesting but no random accident that they have become such an icon of Western culture and wherever Christianity has spread.

Albeit not without controversy. For instance, in 2018, Communist Party authorities in Henan Province forced a church there to remove one of the commandments, creating the world's first 9 Commandments.

Then there's the Los Lunas Decalogue Stone - ever heard of that (not to be confused with the Bat Creek Inscription)?

For many have argued (including Winston Churchill and Dennis Prager - click the above image) that the 10 Commandments are the foundation of Western Civilization. 

Let's perhaps put this thesis to the test.

Chances are that not everyone at your table will be able to name all ten in the correct order, so let's help them out.

First of all, as you can see in this screenshot from the Wikipedia page, there are major controversies over just what are the exact ten.

According to Jewish tradition, they are:

 1. Be a monotheist.
 2. Don't be a polytheist, pantheist, animist, scientist, atheist, or any alternative to monotheism.
 3. Don't misuse the Divine name.
 4. Keep and remember the Shabbat.
 5. Honor your parents.
 6. Don't murder.
 7. Don't commit adultery.
 8. Don't steal.
 9. Don't lie.
 10. Don't yearn to have something that isn't yours and isn't for sale.


So now that we have the What, what about the Why?

As Prager would say, Who can explain them in a way that makes sense to the modern eye and ear? 

Prager can.

But is Prager right that they create the moral foundation of Western Civilization? Or are they only a vestige of Medieval religious fanaticism?

Or, to put the question in more practical terms, could one create a totally moral society based on only nine of the ten commandments as proposed by Chinese Communist Party hacks?

Be circumspect in your answer, for how you answer the question could impact the future of Western Civilization!


Shabbat Shalom
